Pink Love (ON HIATUS)

Return to Homeworld

"Spinel?" Blue Diamond's voice called from her palanquin.
"Yes- my Diamond?" Spinel responded, bowing with her arms intertwined to form a diamond shape.
"Oh- Spinel. So silly~ You don't have to keep doing that!" Blue Diamond chuckled.
"Oh- Uh... Sorry! My Diamond," Spinel laughed nervously.
Blue just giggled softly at Spinel's cute remark.
"What is it you needed me for?" Spinel questioned.
Blue held out her hand to pick up Spinel; which Spinel gladly accepted. "There's going to be a Ball today's evening. And I was wondering if you would like to help entertain?"
Spinel's eyes lit up. "Really? But it's been so long- Ah, gee! Of course I'll do it, My Diamond!"
Blue laughed at being called "My Diamond". Times have changed, ever since Steven brought peace throughout the universe. "Please Spinel- 'Blue' works just fine."
"Oh-! Sorry My Diamond- I mean- Blue," Spinel said scratching the back of her neck awkwardly.
Blue just smiled, then set Spinel down on the steps of her palanquin. "Pearl? Would you do me a favor and help Spinel get ready for the ball tonight? Just show her where to go, then take it easy, okay?"
"Oh- Right away! My- Err- Blue." Blue pearl then proceeded to close her blue hologram screen with her little doodles on it; she started to walk forward, signaling Spinel to follow.

"Here is your room. I would love to help you get ready, but Blue needs me to 'relax'. But someone else will help you, she'll be with you shortly. See you tonight, Spinel," Blue Pearl said softly.
She then walked away, her soft baby blue hair in her face as usual.

"Gee- I'm not sure if I can entertain all these gems at the ball!" Spinel said to herself. "But- I have to do this! I can truly redeem myself and show the diamonds my utmost respect!"
"-Uhm, excuse me? Are you Spinel?" A soft yet cheery voice calls out.
Spinel was caught off guard with this introduction. Was she listening this whole time??? "Oh- Yes! I'm Spinel- Are here for the?-"
"Yes, the ball is in ten hours. You must get ready, and practice your act," The voice states.
Spinel turned around to see the gem; but was instantly blown away at the sight she saw.
It was a pink pearl. Her eyes sparkled in the light, illuminating her pink eyes. Her hair, done up nicely in two buns, reflected softly off of her surroundings. The cloth covering her lower part and chest was a bright hot shade of pink. Long pink gloves fit her shoulders and arms perfectly, and her tights a bright pink. She wore fancy electric-pink shoes that made her walk as quiet as a mouse. Her gem was right on her navel; and right below her gem was a long veiled skirt that draped down her hips, leaving an entrance down the middle.
Golly... She's- Perfect. Spinel thought to herself. Spinel felt her face turn a bright red, flustered by the sight of the pearl.
"Ahhh- O-Okay! Sure!" Spinel spoke, as her words fell out like jello.
"Perfect, let's get started."

Pink pearl stood and watched as Spinel got dressed up for her act. Pearl couldn't take her eyes off the gorgeous gem. They had only just met, but something told her that Spinel was much different from anyone she's ever met.
Spinel was wearing a loose light pink collared shirt with a raven black blazer, fitting her perfectly. She was wearing black dress pants, and dark dress shoes. Her blazer and pants were made of silk, reflecting any light -And her shoes were clean and polished neatly. And lastly she had a pink rose on the chest of her blazer.
She looks absolutely gorgeous... Pink pearl thought to herself.
"-Well," Spinel chuckled nervously, "how do I look?"
Pink pearl was caught off guard, but quickly recovered, "Stunning! You look lovely."
Spinel's face went a bright pink, almost glowing. "Oh- Gee- Uh- T-Thanks!"
Pearl's heart shot through the roof. How could a gem be so cute? How could a gem be this perfect??
She's just like her...
Pearl's mood shattered like ice. Pink Diamond. Her best friend. Her duty. Her world- her everything. But now she's gone. Nothing- but a gem in her own son, Steven Universe.
