I have no idea what I'm doing with my life. I am such sucker for Rupphire ship. They're cutest couple ever! I mean come on! Once again, I kicked logic because I cannot put it in this story. Sometimes Logic and Reality doesn't agree with me often.
"..." a midget red girl sits ten feet away from a small blue gem on a pillow. Ruby sighed heavily as she buried her head in her arm, on her knees. "..." Ruby stays silent for awhile before she stands up and walked toward the wall that have multiple holes and cracks. Ruby stops at front of the battered wall. She grabbed her gem hand as she stares at her shaking hand. Her hand clenched into a fist before she threw a punch into a wall, created yet another hole.
Ruby huffs as she drops her hand down her side. She examined the newly hole on the battered wall. Ruby turns around and leans her back against the wall. She slides down to the floor and curled into same position she was in when she's watching Sapphire gem. A small strangled sound escaped the small red girl. Strangled sounds soon changed into small sobs.
Three hours went by...
Ruby, hasn't moved from her position, looks up at the pillow. Ruby lets out a sigh and buried her head in her arms again. Suddenly a bright light filled the room. Ruby's head shot up on time to see Sapphire's form reforms. Sapphire floats down on the pillow. She looks around as if she's searching for someone. "Ruby?" She calls out for a hothead gem. Ruby stays silent as Sapphire walks a little before turns around. "Ruby?" She calls again. Ruby stands up and shakily walks toward Sapphire. Sapphire turns around as she heard someone coming toward her. Since Ruby was hiding under shadow, Sapphire didn't see her until Ruby steps into light. "Ruby!" Sapphire smiles happily and speed walks toward her. Ruby stays in her place as Sapphire comes toward her. Sapphire stops immediately when she saw Ruby's tear stained face and red stained eyes. "Ruby?" Sapphire looks behind her and saw the wall have multiple holes. She looks back at Ruby, only she was stumbles back when she feels a force tackled her with a hug. Soon enough, she realized it's Ruby who tackled her with a hug. "Sapphire! I miss you!" Ruby cried. Sapphire, surprised by Ruby's sudden hug, hesitantly hugs back.
After few minutes of hugging, Ruby pull back, her head bowed down. Sapphire stares at Ruby. "Ruby..." Sapphire begins, "Did you do this?" Ruby flinched, glanced back at the battered wall and looks back. Sapphire stays silent as Ruby nods softly. Ruby release Sapphire and turns away from Sapphire. Sapphire sighed softly and turns Ruby back to look at her. She then puts her hands on Ruby's cheeks, used her thumbs to wipe her tears away. Ruby puts her left hand on Sapphire's right hand. "I'm sorry. I'm a huge mess for a month since you're recovering." Sapphire looks at Ruby, stunned. "...a month? I'm out for a month? You're like this for a...month?" She implied a word month heavily. Ruby lets out a hum. Sapphire puts her forehead against Ruby's forehead. "Oh Ruby... You must been very worried about me. Didn't you have others?" Ruby gulps. "I was in terrible mood that I ended up pushing everyone away. I...I accidentally punched Pearl's pearl and cracked it. Good thing Pearl and I was home alone at that time. Not even Steven and Amethyst know what happened..." Ruby explains as she closed her eyes in frustration and sadness.
Sapphire's mouth twists into a scowl/frown. "Ruby..." "I'M SORRY!" Ruby hollered. Sapphire pulls back. Ruby looks at her with watery eyes. "I can't help it! I'm a huge mess! I didn't even think twice about my actions until it's too late! I...!" Ruby pulls away from Sapphire and grabs her hair, almost pulls it out. "I can't do this without you, Sapphire! I...! I don't know what would I do without you..." Ruby waves her arms up in frustration. "I am such an idiot. I hate my impulsive actions! I hate...myself..." Ruby whispers the last sentence to herself. Sapphire moves toward Ruby and puts her hands on her wet cheeks again. "Ruby," Sapphire crooned, "I understand that you have hard time but you cannot do this to yourself. You hurts yourself. Because of that, you hurts other too. They want to help you but can't help you because you won't let them." Ruby whimpers as she holds Sapphire's hands. "I'm sorry..." Ruby sobbed. Sapphire kiss her forehead. "Now... I will hold you until you calms down. Then we will go out and you apologize to Pearl. Okay?" Ruby nods solemnly. Sapphire pulls her with her as they walks to bunch of pillows. Both small gems laid down on pillows; Ruby buried her head into Sapphire's chest and Sapphire rubs Ruby's back.
