The group is leaving to go back to their houses after the sleepover. Everyone had fun. Peridot was gladly to host and sorry for the stuff that happened over the sleepover.
"Don't worry P! We won't tell anyone, promise." Steven says smiling. Peridot nods.
"Thanks guys, have a great day." Peridot says as she closes the door. BP then comes up to Peridot and kisses her on the cheek and leaves. Peridot becomes flustered as Lapis becomes angered.
"Well, that was unecessary..." Peridot says. Lapis gets a call from someone.
"Hold on Peri." Lapis says before going to a bathroom. Peridot waits in the living room. Lapis answers the call.
"Hello? Who is this?" Lapis asks.
"Lapis? Goodness you're okay!" Lapis' Mother says.
"Mom! Are you okay?!" Lapis asks.
"Yes sweetie, the situation is all taken care of. The police took in Dad, it was an immediate divorce. He's going to jail for a couple of years now." Lapis' Mother says sighing in relief.
"Thank the stars... Wait, what happens now?" Lapis asks.
"You can come home now. I miss you already!" Lapis' Mother says laughing.
"That's great Mom! Can you pick me up though?"
"Sure sweetie, send me the address." Lapis then sends the address to her Mom. Over the phone, Lapis' Mother sounds surprised.
"What is it Mom?" Lapis asks confused.
"You're living with Peridot Greene?! 'THE' PERIDOT GREENE?!" Lapis' Mother says freaking out.
"Yes, Ma. Why?"
"YOU BETTER NOT MAKE A FOOL OUT OF YOURSELF WHILE YOU'RE THERE! I'LL BE THERE IN A SECOND! I DON'T WANT TO UPSET HER!" Lapis' Mother says while you could hear her rushing to get to her car over the phone.
"What... Explain, please!" Lapis says while sitting on top of the closed toilet.
"She is the basically the smartest person and youngest to be the richest in the world! She teaches exclusive students at Crystal University, the highest and hardest university to get into. She even helped engineer the rockets they send to space today! Her parents died in a drug cartel business. She started off as a basic ordinary citizen until she starting selling these robots to people. Adults know this, but apparently you kids don't." Lapis' Mother says while driving is heard over the phone.
"SHE DIDN'T TELL ME!" Lapis says freaking out.
"Rumors say that she's also a werewolf! One out of only three thousand in the world!"
"THERE ARE THREE THOUSAND WEREWOLVES IN THE WORLD?!"
"Yes, sweetie. Anyways, I'm almost there! Don't make a fool out of yourself until I get there!"
"Okay, Mom! Bye!" Lapis says annoyingly hanging up on the phone. Lapis exits the bathroom then heads to the living room to find Peridot tossing a ball upwards while laying on the couch on her back.
"Hey, Peri." Lapis says jumping over the back of the couch to land sitting next to Peridot's head. She then lays Peridot's head on top of her lap. Peridot stops tossing.
"Are you okay?" Peridot asks looking up at Lapis still with the bandana and glasses on.
"Why?"
"You're usually flirty and all that. You seem serious, is something wrong?" Peridot asks while putting up her right arm to touch Lapis' cheek. Lapis blushes then puts her left palm on Peridot's hand.
"Yeah, I'm fine. My mom is coming over to pick me up. Turns out the situation turned out pretty well." Lapis says warmly smiling down at Peridot.
"Can't wait." Peridot says fakely smiling back at Lapis.
"Now there's something wrong with YOU." Lapis says looking unsure down at Peridot.
"Nothing, I'm okay." Peridot says.
"Are you upset since I'm leaving?" Lapis asks smirking. Peridot crosses her arms and blush red.
"N-no! I-I'm just..." Peridot trying to find an excuse. Lapis light blushes.
"Aww, Peri will miss me!" Lapis says making a cooing face.
"Shut up Lapis. And yes I will." Peridot says. Lapis then blushes deeper.
"Y-you will?" Lapis stutters. Peridot then blushes too.
"Y-yes..." Peridot stutters as well. They stay in that awkward silence until... The doorbell rings. Peridot stands up, puts on her glasses and bandana as Lapis heads towards the door. Lapis opens the door to find her mother referred to as, "Azurite Lazuli" standing worried. Looking like she's about to bite her nails.
