The Princess and The Peasant ~ Lapidot

Chapter 7: Games

When breakfast was over Lapis and Peridot went to Lapis' room to play games. (A/N: I know they are like 18 but you can never be to old for games. And because they have nothing else to do).

"Okay so we can draw, play cards, monopoly, game boy or paint?"

"All these rituals are old. And plus I'm 18 I'm to old for them." Said the ignorant green gem. Lapis crossed her arms at the gem lying on her bed.

"Excuse me! These are the only things i have! And you are never to old to play those games!" Yelled Lapis angrily.

"S-sorry..." Peridot felt her face blush this time due to embarrassment.

"Nevermind lets just do something." After a long awkward silence Lapis spoke again. "How about we have a... TICKLE FIGHT!" Yelled Lapis.

"I'm too old for a tickle f-" Lapis interrupted the green gem by jumping on her bed and began to tickle Peridots sides.

"HAHAHAHA LAPISS AHAHA GET OFF MEE!" Lapis giggled at the trapped gem beneath her, when Lapis looked down at Peridot she stopped tickling her to let Peridot catch her breath.

This position... Im on top of her... The two stared at eachother for awhile untill...

"Hey Lapis." Peridot and Lapis turned their heads to the door, and at the entrance stood Blue Pearl, AKA the next princess, AKA Lapis' sister.

"Uhm... Am I interrupting something?" Blue Pearl took alittle step back from the door.

"N-no!" Said Lapis while getting off the green gem.

"Okay... Well uhm mom said that you're having a meeting with the suitor in a week or two, or maybe it's three... Eh, something like that." Lapis groaned. "Right... So be ready." Said blue P before leaving.

"What's a suitor?" Asked Peridot.

"It's when a man or in this case a Prince tries to marry a Princess to rule the kingdom together. But I hate them. They are all the same. They just want the kingdom or for my looks." Peridot noticed Lapis had begun to cry.

"Don't cry Lapis." Peridot wrapped her arms around the blue gem. "I'm sure someone out there loves you."

"If they are, why haven't that person told me." This made Peridot frown.

I think I love you Lapis... Ugh! What am I saying? Maybe I'm saying it out of sympathy...

"Aw come on cheer up. How about we play a game." Lapis broke the hug to face Peridot.

"Okay what game?" Asked the Princess.

"How about Game Boy?"

"Okay." Said Lapis as she made her way off the bed to get the device.

The two gems hadn't noticed that Blue Peael had left the door slightly open.

"Its working." Whispered Sapphire.

"The two make a lovely couple don't you think?" Asked Blue Dimond.

"Now, now, we mustn't get ahead of ourselves the two are only friends." Sapphire closed the door while her and Blue Dimond backed away from Lapis' room.

"Yes, but not for long." Said Blue Dimond with a smirk.
