Connie yawned, slumping into Stevens couch. The boy had ran to get some donuts, and connie felt tired. She hadn't slept much last night, and soon enough found herself asleep.

Pearl, who had been watching the teen, felt blue creep up her neck.

Slowly walking over, she draped a blanket over connie, who grumbled sleepily in response and grabbed out, somehow managing to get a grip on pearls hand.

Pearl tried to pull back, but connie whined, and seemed to be waking up, so pearl stood still and connie fell back to sleep.

Sighing, pearl propped up a chair beside connie, running a finger through her brown hair.

Connie was.... special. Pearl was not blind, she knew there was something between them. But she was pretty sure that it was just a hormonal attraction on Connie's part, and a desperation for new love where the old one had died on pearls part.

Pearls breath hitched, as she realised that nothing could happen between them.

With Connie's possible crush on her, this would become awkward. And pearl found it hard to imagine herself accepting Connie's feelings. Connie was far too young and a human.

When steven came back, she left without a word.
