We all need a friend (StevenxSpinel)<Discontinued, remake in process>

Welcome to Earth

Hello all, I'm here with another chapter for this story...well duh, of course that's what this is. Idk, just feel I need to say something every time I write a chapter, not sure why.

Also, I would just like to make it clear: I do not agree with Steven's thought of "it's my fault that Connie doesn't hang around me anymore" in the slightest, I just want him and his thoughts about a situation like this be realistic...for the time being.

Anyway, get ready for a long chapter.

-=Earth/Steven's house=-
-=Steven/Spinel=-

The duo appeared in Steven's Diamond tower on his galaxy warp. Spinel looked up at the glass roof and shielded her eyes. "Why's it so bright here?" She complained much to Steven's amusement.

"I guess you've never been on a planet with the sun so close huh?" Steven chuckled, stepping off the warp pad.

"That light is your SUN?! How do you organics survive with that flaming ball of light and heat so close?" She asked, refusing to leave the warp pad, her hand above her eyes to block out the intense light.

"It's really not that bad, it only gets hot here during summer and spring. I mean sure, Homeworld's closest star is too far away to really burn the planet or blind its residents, but it still keeps it somehow livable, even if it's pretty cold like all the time." Steven explained as he opened the door. "But if it's really that bright I can lend you some sunglasses if need be." He offered with another chuckle at the thought of Spinel with sunglasses. "They'll make the light from the sun dimmer."

Spinel just sighed as she removed her hand. "No, it's fine; I'm a Gem, we get used to different environments very fast, my eyes are already adjusting anyway."

"If you say so." Steven shrugged, waiting at the door as she walked over. "That's probably the worst it'll be here, I can't immediately think of anything that could mess with our trip."

"Alright, if you say so. Anyway, you said you had a day planned for us, what are we doing first?" She asked curiously with a smile, making her way outside and onto the balcony.

"Well first I wanted you to meet my friends here on earth, I'm sure they will take to you quickly." Steven said as he lead her down to his room.

"So, is this where you live when you're here on earth?" She asked, associating the bed with sleep and sleep with his room back on Homeworld.

"Yep, though I've only really slept here maybe twice since it had been rebuilt; I'm usually back on Homeworld when it turns night." He explained, looking around his room with a smile. "A a friend of mine named Bismuth actually built this entire place with the help of my other friends: Lapis and Peridot."

"I assume those are some of your friends I'll be meeting today then?" She asked, standing next to the sliding door.

"Maybe, it depends if we come across them, I kinda want to focus on having a fun day with you this time, but first, let's see if Pear and Amethyst are home." He said, walking over to the stairs that lead down to the living area.

Spinel followed him down, slightly nervous about meeting some of Pink's old friends that she thought were good enough to keep with her during the war.

Once she got down to the bottom of the stairs, Steven had already talked to Amethyst and Pearl, both of them seemingly waiting for her arrival. Pearl was the first to speak up about her, "Wait, Spinel, is that you?..."

The Gem in question was admittedly irritated by the fact that this was the Pearl that Steven had been talking about. "Well, Pink Diamond's Pearl, I see she took you with her, isn't that just swell?"
