Chapter 22: Accidents Happen

"Shh! You gotta be quiet!" Steven chuckled as he pulled out his phone and opened the camera, "You might wake them up!"

"Hurry and take it," Pearl gushed, "I want to have it framed!"

"Hold on," Steven smiled as he pointed the camera at the sleeping Amethyst and Y/n. Amethyst sat upright on the couch with her head dangling forward over Y/n's head, which was resting on Amethyst lap while the rest of their body was tucked into their body in fetal position, "Got it!" Steven cheered as the camera snapped a picture with a loud shutter

"Huh?" Amethyst groaned as she opened her eyes

"Who's there?!" Y/n jumped up quickly and smashed heads with Amethyst's, "Agh!" Y/n rolled off of the couch and onto the floor head first with a loud thud

"Y/n!" Pearl gasped

"Oh god, why?" Y/n groaned as they clutched their forehead in pain

"Here," Garnet knelt down to Y/n with a bag of ice and handed it to them

"Thanks," Y/n murmured as they held the bag to their head

"Dude, you okay?" Amethyst shook off the collision and looked at Y/n

"You have a hard head," Y/n said as they sat up from the floor

"Uh... Sorry?" Amethyst shrugged

"Are my pupils big?" Y/n asked as they looked to Amethyst

"The black dot things? Yeah, they're big," Amethyst told

"Does anyone have a flashlight," Y/n said as they clumsily stood up

"I do!" Steven said as he grabbed a yellow torch from a drawer

"Shine it in my eyes," Y/n commanded

"Uh, alright," Steven nodded as he did as he was told, "Now what?"

"Did my pupils react to the light, did they shrink?" Y/n asked

"Nope, they're the same size," Steven told

"Why? What does that mean?" Pearl asked

"It means my brain hit my skull and it's bruised," Y/n told as they sat down on the couch, "Humans call it a concussion,"

"Oh, Steven!" Pearl said, "Can't you heal, Y/n?"

"My... healing spit still isn't working," Steven admitted

"That's alright, Steven. It'll work again soon," Pearl assured, "Y/n, what can we do for you and your.... brain injury,"

"Make sure I don't fall asleep until I see a doctor," Y/n told, "Anyone know if there's a free clinic around here?"

"Free? Do you have to pay for human healthcare?" Pearl asked

"Yep," Y/n told, "I can't use my phone right now, it's bad for my eyes since I've got a concussion,"

"What happens if you fall asleep?" Amethyst asked

"I might not wake up," Y/n said simply

"I'll call Dad right now!" Steven said in a panic as he fumbled around

"Y/n, stand up!" Pearl yelped as she pulled Y/n up, "We need to make sure there's no chance of you falling asleep!"

"Guys, guys don't panic," Y/n laughed, "I just won't fall asleep, it's nothing to stress over,"

"Are you sure?" Pearl asked

"I'm sure," Y/n told, "I'm wide awake right now,"

"Alright, Dad says to meet him at the Big Donut," Steven told as he hung up
