Spinel felt different since that night, she felt off, and a couple times she thought she was sick. "Maybe Aquamarine is right, maybe I am becoming soft...." Spinel thought, at the moment she was sitting in her condo, and frankly, it was somewhat nice. Spinel stared at the blank screen of her phone, waiting patiently for a texted response from Steven, she had texted the male earlier about hanging out but hadn't received an answer yet. Now usually she wasn't so anxious for a few reasons, but lately she's found herself become.....a bit clingy to the male, and she couldn't figure out why. True, Spinel was enjoying Steven's company, but this confused the female on a whole new level. Spinel came to the conclusion that she was starting to become obsessed, but this was on a whole new spectrum, and she was questioning her intentions. Did Spinel want to fuck him? Kill him? Hug him? Kiss him? She didn't really know, her thoughts and emotions overwhelmed her mind, and the sound of her phone receiving a notification snapped the female out of her thoughts. Her pink colored eyes read the text, "sorry, I have other plans for today" Steven's text read, which seemed to slightly irritate the female. "Fucker, you took forty five minutes just to send that?" Spinel growled lowly to herself, however she gave a brief response that read, "really? What plans?". Spinels eyes widened a little when the male texted back, "I'm going out with Connie tonight :) " this made the crazed female feel something, like a candle that remained unlit until a flame ignited the wick. Spinel's left eye twitched as she re-read the text, the flame inside her continued to grow as she responded with a "yea? What're you two going to do?" she texted the male. Her foot began to tap against her living rooms carpeted floor, she didn't understand why this began to piss her off, but damn this irritated her. Steven then gave a brief summary of what he and Connie were going to do, which was then going eat lunch at Fishstew Pizza, and then to the Cinema to watch a movie together, but only as friends. Spinel knew that Steven wouldn't lie to her, but she couldn't help but doubt his answer because, from the way it seemed, his response sounded way to close as to an example of a date. Spinel huffed heavily before giving a quick "have fun" response before bolting off of her couch and towards her bedroom. Now the female's bedroom consisted of a balcony attached to one side of her room, a walk in closet attached to the leftmost wall, and a large bed with black covers on top. Spinel slammed her bedroom door shut and swiftly made her way to her walk in closet, she then switched on the light switch to the on position. Her jackets, sweatshirts, her unused nice shirts, and skirts were hung up on the female's left. A dresser was on her right which contained her undergarments and other accessories, and a shelf that held her shoes. At the very back, there was a vanity table that held various makeup products and other various items, a large mirror was attached to the wall, which would help the female get a good look at herself after dressing herself everyday. "Hmmmm let's see....what haven't I wore that HE hasn't seen me in yet..." Spinel pondered her options, swiping her hanging clothes from right to left. Soon the female chose a simple baggy black sweatshirt, she then walked over to her dresser and chose a pair of tight, black jeans from a drawer. Spinel then opened another drawer from her dresser and rummaged through it, various hats and gloves fell to the ground as she continued her search. Soon she chose a black flat cap hat that had an extremely dark pink bill. Along with the hat, she also extracted a bandana, a malicious smile printed on the front of the bandana to match the crazy grin that was etched onto her face.

    "Steven? Hey are you alright" Connie asked as the pair left the pizzeria, she had noticed that her friend seemed a bit uneasy. "I don't know, I kinda feel like I'm being watched or something...." Steven admitted. It was true, the male was a bit fidgety in his seat while the two shared a pepperoni pizza. "Well considering after everything that's been going on, I'd be as paranoid as you are" Connie simply stated, and considering the type of work she does, the female is always used to the feeling of being watched. "Mmm I guess, we should hurry or we're gonna miss the movie" Steven stated when he noticed that the big clock tower rang once, meaning it was one in the afternoon. The pair rushed through the chilly day, their movie was supposed to start a quarter after one and they were going to see a romantic comedy, a genre that the two enjoyed seeing a lot whenever a movie of that selection came to theaters. Spinel wasn't in the pizzeria, in fact, she was in an alleyway that was across the street, and in the position she was in, she could see the pair since they sat by the window during the whole time they ate. The female was wearing the flat cap with her hair stuffed inside so her fuchsia hair wouldn't be so easily seen, and she had the bandana worn on her face so Steven wouldn't recognize her if she got to close. Spinel felt like she was going to throw up from seeing how close the two were, even if they were just friends being, well, friendly. For now, that eternal flame inside her continued to stay the same size, a little flicker that would grow if fed enough fuel, and she hoped it wouldn't turn into a forest fire. Spinel started to follow after the duo, she didn't know why she was doing what she was doing, but she chalked it up to being bored since there was something a brewing within the Diamonds. For now she had to keep herself entertained and somewhat sane, well, as sane as the maniacal female could be. After following, well more like stalking, the pair into the movie theater, and noticed that they bought a large popcorn and a singular soda. "Are they planning on sharing a soda? Is it because it's cheaper or is it for a different reason?...." Spinel asked herself as she watched Steven carry the popcorn, and Connie carry the soda into theater six. As soon as Spinel watch the pair disappear into the dimming theater, she quickly bought a ticket for that same movie and quickly rushed into theater sixth. The hidden female waited in the darkened back, her pink colored eyes focused in on the pair, and she noticed they were sitting a few rows from the front, so she elected to sit in the back so she could observe the pair without being noticed. Spinel's attention was on the pair halfway through the movie, her grip was already tight on the arm rest as is, but that changed when she saw Steven rest his head on Connie's shoulder, and then she saw Connie rest her head on top of the male's head. She then felt her grip strengthen and soon snapped the arm rest out of anger, she then cursed to herself silently out of anger, confusion, and embarrassment.  Spinel found herself lucky that miraculously the patrons of the theater didn't even here the audible snap of the chair breaking, and she took this opportunity to leave the theater. Spinel hadn't felt this angry in a long time, not since she learned about her parents death, and she felt like she was ready to kill something. Now of course she wasn't going to kill something, but Spinel needed to release this bottled up anger somehow, and she also knew that confrontation with the male was also important. The disguised female was so deep in thought that she didn't realize that she ended up in front of Stevens apartment complex, and she gritted her teeth and made an executive decision, and that was to make her way up to Stevens apartment. Now Spinel knew that the spare key she "borrowed" wasn't going to work on the new lock that Steven had the landlord install on his door, however, one quick kick that was powered with anger and sadness was enough to open Stevens door. As soon as Spinel entered the male's apartment, she shut the door with another kick, although since she basically broke the doorframe the door opened back up slightly. Now kicking the door open made her feel slightly better, and even though after she turned the light on and flipping a few pieces of furniture over out of anger, it just wasn't enough to alleviate the anger. Spinel them heard two familiar voices from outside the building, she smirked when she saw the pair standing at the entrance of the apartment complex and saw Connie leave, and like a fox hiding in an empty hen house, she'll wait patiently for her prey to enter and she'll then move in for the kill.
