'spinel. . .'

'nel. . .'

'sPINEL!!'

the gem abruptly sat up with sweat trickling down her forehead, she looked to her side to see the watermelon steven has some fruits in a wooden plater in hand.

"for me?" spinel pointed at herself, the fruit nodded and pushed the platter further to spinel. the gem gladly took it and grabbed an apple and took a bite off it.

the watermelon huffed confidently and strode off leaving spinel. spinel looked at the ground intently as she slightly grip the apple tightly, she clearly heard your voice in her head.

or dreams as to what you and steven call it.

you were calling out for spinel, those calls sounded tired and desperate which makes spinel's hear ache. but she knows what will happen if she comes back.

you're fated to a gem that can kill and has almost killed earth, do you want that? of course you wouldn't in spinel's perspective.

spinel took another bite out of the apple and slightly twitched as the juices is sweet, as she finishes the fruit, spinel grabbed the dragonfruit and stood up.

she fell asleep in the dense jungle that is near the watermelon village, after walking for a few minutes the village is finally in view. some watermelon kids came up to the gem and greeted her, spinel grinned and gave them the dragonfruit which they gladly took.

some asked for a piggy back ride since they were raising their hands, spinel placed the child on her back which made the other kids jealous and want a piggy back ride too.

spinel giggled, she extended her arms and scooped all of the watermelon kids. they all sat on her elongated arms and some used it as a monkey bar.

spinel never has this much fun since. . . her. putting that aside, spinel puts the children down when she saw their parents calling them for breakfast or something. the children waved for a temporary goodbye and went off to their houses.

spinel softly smile and headed to the shore, she watched the waves hit the sand in a unrhythmic (i dont think thats a word but meh) pace and the seagulls flying underneath the high sun.

spinel sat down, grabbed a fistful of sand and watched it fall back to it's original territory as she releases it. spinel shook her hand to let other remaining sand off her glove, she placed her hand on her temple and closed her eyes.

'y/n?'

silence for a few seconds until. . .

'SPINEL! THANK GOD, WHERE ARE YOU?! I'M WORRIED SICK!!'

it's good to hear your voice since spinel ran away for who knows how many hours, spinel smiled slightly.

'i'm quite alright doll no need to worry about me.'

'spinel, where are you?'

'i'm afraid i can't tell you that.'

'wha-? spins, please i need you to come back.'

spinel gripped the sand tightly, 'i'm sorry but it's better this way, you can't have someone who's useless and broken. who'd want that?!'

'i do! spinel, you're the best gem i've ever met and i would never abandon someone who's special to me.'

spinel tears started to poke her eyes, she pursed her lips and sniffled. 'i'm sorry.'

'wa-!' silence.

spinel sighed in frustration and curled up into a ball of despair. spinel practically deflated and let her body fall into the sand. then she heard a noise.

she immediately stood up and looked for the one who made the noise. but it was a watermelon steven who came out, spinel sighed deeply. "don't scare me like that fruitman."

spinel sat back down the sand with the watermelon sitting beside her, a momentary silence until spinel broke it. "do you know what soulmates mean?" the watermelon tilted it's head in confusion.

"of course you wouldn't. but if you have someone in mind that made your heart go weird but you're responsible for the almost total destruction of humanity, would you allow them to love you?"

the watermelon confused as hell right now worried even. spinel sighed "it's fine, i didn't expect you'd understand anyway." she stood up but was stopped when the watermelon started 'speaking'.

spinel couldn't understand the fruit's language, until the watermelon is done, he looks at the gem thinking she understood him.

"i think he's right."

another voice came, both spinel and the watermelon looked at the dense jungle until a figure came up. spinel backed up while the watermelon cheered and ran up to garnet.

"wh-what are you doing here? how did you find this place?" spinel backed up again. garnet patted the wateremelon's head and looked at spinel.

"i figured you needed someone to talk to."
