Steven's Birthday

[Open Ext. The Barn]

(You and The Crystal Gems are preparing decorations for Steven's birthday. Amethyst is blowing balloons, Pearl is making a ribbon bow, You trying to find a cake on your phone, and Steven is helping Garnet make a banner.)

Steven: I can't believe it's finally my birthday. You're sure it's okay we're taking a break from the drill?

Pearl: Peridot will keep us on schedule.

Amethyst:: Yo, Peri! You sure you don't want to get in on this?

(Amethyst blows up a balloon that looks like Peridot and it pops. Peridot glares, puts on her welding goggles and disappears around the corner of the barn.)

Y/N: We'll save you a slice of cake, That is if someone doesn't eat it all

(You glare at Amethyst)

Amethyst: I make no promises 

Garnet: We should celebrate our progress. We should celebrate your progress. You've grown a lot this year.

Pearl: He certainly has.

Steven: Yeah. Yeah, I guess so!

(A car horn is then heard, as Greg's Van arrives. Wearing a red party dress and a floppy sun hat, Connie climbs out clutching a suitcase.)

Connie: Steven!

Steven: Connie!

Connie: Happy birthday! *runs up to hug Steven*

Steven: Thanks. Welcome to the party! May I offer you... a refreshment? *pulls out two juice boxes from behind him*

Connie: Oh, Steven! How genteel.

Steven & Connie: Clink! *pats their juice boxes together*

Steven: So, this is the barn! I'm surprised your parents are letting you stay for the weekend.

Connie: *chuckles* It wasn't easy. They'd only let me come after equipping me with every piece of safety gear on the planet.

Y/N: Well, At least their letting you go out more

Greg: What should I do with this defibrillator!? *pulls a defibrillator out of the back of the van*

Connie: *blushes* Um, we can just leave it in the car for now!

Y/N: Why did you even pack a defibrillator?

Connie: Gee, Ask my mom for that one

Steven: *giggles* Well, I'm glad you could make it.

Connie: Me too.

Greg: Alright, move it Connie, I was his best friend first. Happy birthday! *hugs Steven tightly* Ooookay, schtu-bal. Let me get a look at you.

Steven: *embarrassed* Daaad!

Greg: Sorry, I just can't believe my little boy is growing up so quickly. Seems like just yesterday you were a baby, and now you're turning fourteen years old.

Connie: *does a spit-take* Steven! You're fourteen!?

Y/N: You were thriteen?

Steven: Yeah?

Connie: But I'm only twelve and three quarters! You're older than me? I-I don't believe it!

Greg: Well sure, check it out. (Greg pulls out a book with a star on the front under the name "Steven Quartz Universe". He opens it to reveal images of Steven on his birthday throughout the years.) Let's see, we have infant, baby, toddler - what's it called - adolescent, adolescent, adolescent, adolescent... Whoa, looks like you stagnated there a little bit, buddy.
