"Pearl! Where have you been?" Steven asked as he ran up to Pearl who had just warped right into the temple
"Uh, looking for Peridot! For a few days straight... Steven, I know I might have... disappointed... all of you. I know Garnet is very upset with me, but I'm going to prove to her that she can trust me again!" Pearl said, "Where's Y/n? Have they been asking for me?"
"Y/n... Hasn't really been around her much," Steven told, "Neither has Garnet..."
"Watch your step," Garnet's voice rang as she and another pair of foot steps came up the stairs
"Thanks," Y/n said softly as the two walked through the door
"Oh! Garnet! I was just looking for Peridot! She's bound to be somewhere, right? Any new ideas?" Pearl ran to Garnet. Garnet said nothing as she escorted Y/n with her to the back of the temple, "I'm sorry..." Pearl sighed as she looked at the floor. Garnet stopped in her place as a voice rang from outside
"Who wants to go on a-" Greg yelled as he burst through the door, "Road trip?!" Everyone stared at Greg with unhappy faces, "Umm... Is this a bad time?"
"No. Please continue," Garnet said as she walked to Greg, keeping her hand on Y/n's shoulder and bringing them with her
"Well I gotta drive over to the next state, Keystone," Greg said
"You mean the Keystone state?" Pearl asked
"Right, the state named Keystone. I met a guy on an internet message board who's selling car wash brushes for real cheap! I just gotta meet him in Keystone and pick em' up!" Greg told
"That sounds really sketchy," Y/n commented
"I don't like those brushes, they feel weird on your fur," Steven said
"Well, do you like motels?" Greg asked
"Probably!" Steven cheered
"Think you'd like to stay at a motel with your favorite dad?" Greg asked
"I don't know if you're my favorite..." Steven joked
"What? Huh... oh, you kidder! Come here!" Greg laughed as Steven jumped into his arms
"I can't wait to get room service!" Steven smiled
"You're thinking of a hotel, we're going to a motel. It'll have a pool, and free ice, and it's right next to the best diner in the world!" Greg told
"I'm coming too," Garnet told, "Y/n as well,"
"What?" Pearl frowned
"Even better!" Steven gasped
"I guess my decision was made for me," Y/n chuckled
"I predicted you'd say yes," Garnet informed
"Hey, Garnet, I know I'm talking this place up, but... it ain't exactly the Ritz," Greg whispered
"I'll be the judge of that," Garnet smiled
"Well in that case... road trip!" Greg cheered
"Road trip!" Steven echoed
"Road trip," Garnet nodded
"Road trip?" Y/n tilted their head slightly
"Wonderful! I'll make sure Amethyst knows that-" Pearl began, but Garnet walked past Pearl, lightly pushing Y/n along with her, "Fine!... Well, good bye!"
"I don't need an escort," Y/n assured Garnet as the two walked down the stairs
"We know!" Garnet responded loudly, her voice then calmed down, as if a different person was talking, "We don't want you alone with Pearl anymore,"
