Steven Universe Of The Creek

Chapter 28 Steven Universe Of The Campus

Steven drove his van with Kenneth, Bernard and Alexis inside to the University Of Herkleton. Kenneth gave his new friend the directions to the location as Steven followed everything. He drove through the gate while parked at the parking lot, not long as he and the others got out.

"Welcome to the University Of Herkleton." Kenneth padded on Steven's back. "A really great campus for the future for everyone here."

"Every college has a future for everyone." Steven smiled as Kenneth laughed.

"We were planning to come here for our future studies." Alexis commented. "We're planning that out the next time we come back here."

"It's never too early, don't forget that." Bernard added.

Kenneth had more opportunities for where he could take Steven to. He's planning on showing him his friends at their dorms, including his own dorm later. But first, he took him to the water fountain where he always goes to. "This is where I mostly take in the fresh air while listening to this fountain." Kenneth sitting on the edge. "Granted there are other water fountains even outside of colleges, but this is my favorite spot."

Steven and his friends saw the coins in the water from the fountain. "You sometimes put a coin in there?"

"Once per week."

"Well, it's this fountain's lucky day." Steven tosses his coin in the fountain, while sitting next to Kenneth.

"We don't grant wishes in college, but it's a step forward for your future."

As Alexis sat next to Steven, Bernard decided to stay standing. Despite being impressed with Steven's impression, he's still keeping his distance from him. He knows he won't blow up like before, especially with his new friend, but he's aware that if his friend could find out about his true self, he could be suspicious like he was.

"Bernard." Alexis spoke to get her boyfriend's attention. "Aren't you gonna sit next to us?"

"No, I'm good, this university is still new to me." He responded.

"What do you mean? You and her wanted to be here for your future." Kenneth replied.

"It's not that, it's just this day is about you and Steven, not ours."

Kenneth gave him a confused look while Steven followed what he meant, but with an improbable look. "Bernard, it's not all about me and him, if it were, I wouldn't take you and Alexis along."

"Technically speaking...we can't really make it about me and you if we can."

"Sorry, but you two have officially lost me." Kenneth responded. "Steven, you told me earlier that you're a traveler."

"Yes I am, but I forgot to say that I got here four days ago." Steven turned to Kenneth. "I've met Bernard and Alexis, but we haven't been friends."

"It's not true, it's just..." Alexis refused to expose Steven's true identity, but Kenneth's catching on. "...Steven has a really embarrassing..."

"Lively initiation." Bernard said, getting Kenneth's attention. "It wasn't ugly or anything, we didn't appreciate his life as much as we thought. It was just me and Alexis who found out about it."

"Ohh." Kenneth followed on. "If it was really embarrassing, I don't need to know about it."

"Yeah." Steven replied. "I'm sure you had embarrassing occasions like I have."

"If one person never had that, they wouldn't be your friend."

"You can't disagree on that."

"Big time."
