We All Get Found... (Spinel x Female! Reader)

Chapter Four: Pearl Fish

(A/N: You judge the art in this chapter, I'll fucking break your face uwu)

Think it's safe to say that you and Spinel's relationship drastically increased that day. Even Amethyst noticed, despite being busy with season 57 of Fighter Guys. Like, right then, when you and Spinel were standing right outside of the bathroom, buckets of water in your hands and stupid grins on your faces. 

Suddenly, Pearl opened the door. You and Spinel laughed as you both poured the water all over her. 

She yelped, then glared at you two. "Y/N, Spinel! Don't...sneak up on me like that," Pearl huffed, crossing her arms. 

Spinel gave one last giggle. "Sorry, Pearl!" She replied. 

Amethyst looked at Pearl and instantly started laughing. She looked confused and angry. Then, you and Spinel saw what she was laughing about. "And just what's so funny?" Pearl asked Amethyst. "There's a fish on your head, P!" Amethyst chuckled. 

Pearl gave an annoyed expression and picked it off, handing it to you. 

"Go put that...that fish in the ocean. It's leaking internal juices." Pearl shuddered, going to grab a mop. 

"It looks just like you!" Amethyst called after her, earning an annoyed growl from out in the distance in response. 

You and Spinel snickered, quickly rushing outside with the fish. You handed it to Spinel, earning a nod as she stretched her arm way out into the sea and put the fish back.

You grinned. Then, suddenly, you had the taste of salt in your mouth. You sputtered and coughed, then feeling how wet your head was. You opened your eyes, only to see Spinel grin and splash you again. 

There you stood, sopping wet and with a revenge plan. You gave a battle cry and began to pummel your fist on the water, Spinel now getting a taste of her own medicine. 

She yelped, and began to dodge with a stretch each time. Then, she wrapped her arms around you with a sneaky grin, and toppled you over backwards into the water. 

You tried to yell, but you got a disgusting mouthful of salt water. 

When you got up, Spinel's arms were extended into the air, already planning round two. "No fair, Spinel! I can't even do that." You complained. She paused in thought, then her arms deflated. 

"Alright, alright, alright." She said, approaching you with her hands up in defeat. Then, you gave a razor sharp grin and shoved her head first into the water. 

She yelped, and wasn't able to catch herself in time. A huge wave was quickly heading that way. You were too busy laughing that you didn't notice.

"Y/N, look out!" Spinel cried. You opened your eyes and gasped, quickly closing them and bracing for impact. 

But it never came. 

You were confused, until you felt the stretchy arms wrapped around you. You opened your eyes, and saw that Spinel stretched her legs to be very tall. She was looking at you with a panicky expression. 

"Are you okay, Y/N?" She asked, her voice wavering a bit. 

"Yeah...are you okay?" You replied. She nodded, everything about her relaxing. 

"Good. The waves are getting crazy now, so maybe let's go inside." You suggested. "Okay!" She said, stretching down just a little bit shorter and walking into the house. 

But just as she opened the door, Pearl with a mop turned around and totally freaked. "No way! You're not coming into this house with all of that sand on you!" She nagged. 

"But Pearl," You complained. "The waves are coming in really hard!"

She groaned. "First, get all of that sand off of you. Then, we'll see."

You and Spinel stepped outside, wondering how to possibly get all of this off.

-

Well, it took a bit, but you both did it. 

Took the sand off. 

You and Spinel laid down on the couch, you on one side and she on the other. Nobody else was able to get on. 

You began to feel your eyelids drooping. It was already noon, you could see as you looked at Steven's new alarm clock that he had just recently put up. 

Soon, your eyes were closing, and it marked the end of the splash fight.

-

"Y/N?"

You groaned, still not opening your eyes. "Y/N?"

"Not right now, Spinel..." You sighed. 

There was a moment of silence. Then, you felt a sensation running up your sides. You yelped, and flopped right off the side of the couch. 

"Eeesh! You okay, Y/N?" Spinel asked, kneeling down next to you and offering a hand. You took it. 

"Why were you tickling me in my sleep?" You asked. She grinned. "That's 'cause you wouldn't get up! Had to wake you up somehow!" She replied. 

You groaned, and looked at your phone. It was 3:00? 

You were supposed to be home by then! 

"Oh, jeez! Sorry, Spinel, but I gotta go home now! Bye!" You cried, rushing out the door. "Oh, um, okay! Bye!" You heard Spinel yell back as you dragged your tired self home as fast as you could.

-

You held your breath and opened the door. "You're late," Your mom said right as you opened the door.

You stared at her for a moment, and then shut it again.

She kicked it open again with a scowl on her face. You gave a shrug. "Does it matter? I mean, I'm home now." You reasoned.

"That's not the point, we have a system, here! You can't just go running away from your responsibilities." Your mom firmly explained.

"What, like dishes?" You retorted. She glared, and you quickly shut your mouth.

"I bet you were with that boy, Steven Universe, again, weren't you?" She scoffed. It took all of the biting of the lip in the world to not chew her out.

And, then, she walked away. Leaving you to open the fridge as soon as you heard her bedroom door shut and grab the entire block of cheese.

-

"Come on, Ste-man! Just one more bite!" Amethyst encouraged. 

"You can do it, Steven! I do it every night!" You cheered him on.

"Try not to throw up!" Spinel said, trying to mimic you guys.

"40...cheese...sandwiches..." Steven groaned, his body finally catching up with him and kicking his ass for what he did.

Very quickly he ran, the bathroom seeming 20 miles away before you heard the horrible retching sounds that emancipated from inside.

"Welp." Amethyst shrugged, picking up the last bite and eating it herself before going into her room.

"What is he doing  in there?" Spinel asked, making a confused expression. You snorted.

"Another disgusting human thing you don't wanna know about."

And so Spinel sat there quietly in wonder, letting her imagination run wild about why Steven was making those horrible noises.

(A random happy face, somebody out there needs it :D)
