StevidotForLife: I dare Steven and Peri to do something nice for each other!

Steven: Oh. That should be easy.
      Peridot crossed her arms as she looked down at the ground.
Steven: I know just what to do. I'll be right back.
    Peridot sighed as she saw Steven run out of the barn and over to the temple.
Peridot: He knows exactly what to do for me. But I don't know what to do for him.
     She could give him a gift but what kind of gift?Peridot tapped her chin as she looked around the barn. There was nothing around to give to Steven. Peridot walked out the barn and looked around for something she could give. She saw a beautiful rose and picked it up. This is the perfect gift. It may be small but no one said it had to be perfect.
Steven: Peridot!
    Peridot turned around and hid the rose behind her back.
Steven: I got my gift.
    Steven smiled before he pulled out a silver necklace with a heart shaped Peridot gem at the end. Peridot gasped as the gem shone in the sunlight.
Peridot: It's beautiful Steven.
Steven: Turn around.
      Peridot turned around and Steven put the necklace on for Peridot.
Steven: I've had it for a while and since we're doing  nice things for each other I decided now would be a good time to give it to you.
Peridot: Thanks Steven.
    Peridot smiled before she realized her situation. Steven had given her such a nice gift and all she had to offer him is a rose. She thought her gift wasn't nearly as nice as Steven.
"I'm gonna look like a fool if I give him this. But I have nothing else to give him."
Steven: So what did you get me Peridot?
     Peridot sighed before she looked down at the ground and revealed the rose from behind her back.
Steven smiled and took the rose from Peridot.
Peridot: I'm sorry.
Steven: For what?
Peridot: For getting you such a boring gift. Your gift is so amazing and mine is just so small.
     Steven put a hand on Peridots cheek.
Steven: I think your gift is perfect. It doesn't matter how big or how great your gift is. It's the thought that counts.
     Peridot looked at Steven for a few seconds before she smiled and hugged him tightly.
Peridot: I guess your right.
