I woke up wrapped in my parents arms mum was snoring I heard mom giggling I looked at her "shh we don't wanna wake mum" I nodded "how was your sleep iris?" I looked up at her "it was good but I had a weird dream" she looked at me with a eyebrow raised "oh?" "I could walk again but I wasn't happy I looked different like me but like an angry clown without the nose and I was hurting my friends on earth the one's you met on mum's old moon base" "you still go there blue?" We looked at mum "you two could wake the dead you know" mom laughed "so could you with your loud snoring" she pointed at her "it's not my fault" mom kissed her causing me to be squished between them "moms you're Squishing me" "oh sorry" they unsquished me "i'll make breakfast" mum said getting up "you guys eat?" I asked "we may not need it but we find it quite enjoyable" mum said "also you need to eat" mom added "how do you know?" They smiled "we've known since the day of your birth" "oh why do I need to eat though?" They looked at each other then at me "because you're very special" I smiled "I know" they both laughed "you're very silly" mum left the room to make breakfast "now while she's going that let's try walking my little flower" "o-okay" mom helped me off the bed she held my hands my legs were a bit wobbly I took one step but I fell forwards onto mom I was flustered "it's okay try again" we started walking together again "there you go you're doin great" I smiled at her "mom" I said as we kept trying to walk around the room "yes darling?" "We're you ever unable to walk?" She blushed we stopped walking I fell on her "well have you?" She looked down and blushed more "I don't need to answer that" "so you have why couldn't you walk?" She lifted me up "okay that's enough time for breakfast" she brought me to the kitchen where mum was putting food on the table "she giving you any trouble?" She gave out a small laugh "not exactly" "why what she do?" She blushed again "i'll tell you later" we sat down and ate "this is really good mum" I said as I kept eating "thank you iris" I smiled "where am I going to go while you're working?" I asked "you'll be with pink until we call you okay" I nodded mom brought me to pinks room the door opened to reveal steven with some small gems around him they looked at us and hid "hello pink" he waved "hey blue what brings you here" "I'm just dropping iris off here while yellow and o go to work" she put me down beside him and left the room the tiny gems came back out "who's this pink?" One of them asked "um I'm iris" they started crawling on me I started laughing I fell backwards the door opened the gems hid again I sat up it was pearl "pearl!" Steven got up to hug her "where's garnet and amethyst are they okay?" She smiled her pearl glowed steven stood back garnet and amethyst came out garnet came over and hugged me "are you all right?" I nodded "mom helped me with walking today" she didn't spear for a moment before smiling "may I see how well you did?" I nodded "you still have to help me"she helped me up and held my hands we walked "that's a start soon you'll be able to walk again by yourself" I smiled and sat down there was a sound "what's that?" Steven asked "the diamond chime" pearl said the door opened "pink and iris diamond yellow diamond would like to see you" mum's pearl said we nodded "you two might want to change into something more suitable first" pearl said we changed into bathing suites we went with them to a large yellow door and two topaz guards at the door I recognize then I waved they both smiled then opened the door steven and I went in "pink iris come join me" she said Steven held me as we jumped up and sat on the ledge she looked at us "so what did white say pink" "well she said hello and I said um hi I didn't" she chuckled "two and a half words that's a new record" mum said seemingly thrilled "I didn't say anything she just kept talking about me" I said "what did she say?" "Um well" here was a chime "already?" She said she did something to get all the condensation off then she left the room steven and I went out then moms pearl came to get us  pearl helped me follow moms pearl and Steven once we got there Steven grabbed my wrist and we jumped up the large stairs mom was sitting in the water combing her hair she looked up and put her comb in a container with other things "Steven iris you made it" she said as she smiled we jumped in the water mom laughed then slid down we ended up on her knees "so silly so small" steven and I smiled mom did too "remember when I let you name that batch of pyrite fools gold" mom laughed "white was furious" "no I don't remember" steven said "what about the game we used to play here you would stand at the bottom and sing you and I and yellow, and white" "we can do that again" mom shook her head "no, no one wants to be here not with your empty spot" "does mum come here with you" I asked "occasionally yes" "can we come here when you guys are done with work!" I shouted excitedly she chuckled "only if you're good" I smiled "I promise I will" there was a chime  she sighed "I have to go now" she picked us up and put us out of her pool she left we both sighed and went back to his moms room we sat down the pebble came out and started doing something "what are they doing?" I asked "I think they're making us outfits" I was confused but went with it they created outfits for us his was like his moms and mine was like a combination of my parents outfits 

"Steven I think you look better in that than your mom did" he looked at me and laughed the door opened and the gems came in "where were you guys?" I asked "pearl insisted on looking around homeword" amethyst said "you too look different" garnet said I smiled "do you like our new outfits?" I asked she nodded "how'd it go with the diamonds" "we barely even got to talk to them before running off to do work" Steven said "that's rough" amethyst said I yawned "I'm tired" garnet sat down I laid in her arms and fell asleep
