Peridot's POV

"Ever since Lapis came back to Earth, something has been dragging my heart down. Making me feel the weight of the world pushing down on me.. and I didnt really know what it was until we came back to Earth after we went to homeworld.

Visiting homeworld again was an experience.. it was a sardonic deal. Lapis was anxetic during the whole way there.. the long and short of it; she wasnt really looking forward to it.
While I was.. kinda split on how I felt.. I was excited to see it again, but, scared for many reasons, I was scared how much the place has shaped since last I'd seen it, and I was scared for the reason we were heading there.. what if we went all of that way, and we couldnt do anything?? What if they were shattered?? What if Steven-.. sorry I got a bit off of track. But hopefully you get my point of reason.. anyways.

Back to the thing that was pulling my heart down.. it was the need and beckon for me to talk to Lapis about.. our situation.. I didnt know how to start it, that was the problem.. I mean- she took OUR home into space, and left me emotionally and physically drained, and tired, and sad, and then came out of nowhere and smashed all of our prized meepmorps and beautiful things that we've collected through the time on Earth on the beach! And says nothing other to me than 'Hey' when we have a LOT to talk about.. Heh.. tears are welling in my eyes talking about this.-

Yes, granted; she did buy us some time with Blue Diamond, but what did that matter?..

that's rhetorical, I know what it did for us.. but I'm just sort of upset from the whole thing.. wait, not sort of, I AM UPSET. Stars, I think only one person could know how upset I am.. and that one entity is, Steven."

END OF LOG.

"Steven?" I turned to the half-human boy.

"Yeah, Peridot?" He responded, I only replied in a silent low head hang.

"What's wrong, Peridot?" The caring boy asked, concerned.

"Do you ever feel upset, but not know why you're upset??" I asked him.

He scooted closer to me. "Yeah, sometimes. Do you not know what's bothering you, Peridot?"

I shook my head, although I knew that I was lying. I did know.

"Oh, well, sometimes when I need to think, I go and sit up on Obsidian's hand.. it's where the washer and dryer are." Steven suggested.

"Thanks, Steven.. I think I'll go do that.." I thanked as I got off of his bed and down the house's stairs and towards the warppad. I stared at the gems' rooms' door as I stood there on the warppad, the five pronged star only contained a gem resembling a Rose Quartz-.. er.. Pink Diamond, a Sapphire, a Ruby, a Pearl, and an Amethyst.. I wonder how they would accommodate for the three other new crystal gems, along with the previous ones returning.. the others are smart, I'm sure they'll figure it out.

I warped to Obsidian's hand and when my light form regained in the new position, I saw a familar back sitting on top of the large thumb of the sculpture. With her legs crossed to lay at the side. She wasnt deturred at all by the chiming sound of the warppad.

I wanted to say something, but my stomache felt weak.. and every time my jaw opened to say something, I couldnt muster anything out. So I sat quietly at the base of the thumb waiting for her to notice me.

Then all of a sudden, I heard a beautiful singing voice come from her. It was entrancing, and marvelous. And it made me wish that she sang more..

I remember the song started off with,
"It all became so lovely,
The bluest skies above me.
Those funny feelings I have never felt before I met you-"
Then I felt a presence next to me after she sang, "you-". I opened my eyes to see Lapis sitting next to me. Her legs spread out straight while mine were scrunched up to my body.
