It finally happened. After The Gem Founders Pack was performed live, the second they were offstage Steven literally collapsed on the spot. He didn't even make it fully behind the curtain, so while someone tried to get him up, Connie had to run out and assure the crowd he was just out of powers and how much energy it takes to make the shows the way he does.

Sometimes, during song Steven would get so powerful he could create masterpieces with his powers, grow flowers simply at will, build anything his mind could think up, seduce and silvertongue without having to speak more than a few words, and his music caused him to burst into flames along with anyone nearby he was connected to. Between the thick smog they'd played through and all of the energy and passion and back and forth, Steven finally gave out after enormous applause that partially deafened them.

"He needs to lay down!" Connie called to the boys, of which we're trying to lift his 350 lbs body.

Adams face was bright red, but he still found the strength to scoff. "What?" He dug a finger into his ears as he processed it, still ringing slightly. "No shit, you think I'd leave the Baby here?"

Steven mumbled something in a soft squeak no one could catch and tried to sport some of his own weight. His knees buckled heavily, but little by little they loaded him into the van and tried to keep him complacent and happy.

"Steven! You did such an amazing job today," Anna cheered with both fists pumped into the air. The rest joined in too, leaving the incredibly exhausted hybrid nothing to do but spread his arms.

"Cuddles." It was not just a want, but an intense need or he would die of sadness hypothetically. "I'll die."

Connie's eyes went starry and she reached forward to smack both Adam and Alex occupying the front seat. The back of the van had two sides of seats on left or right, and she preferred to sit the most on the inside. Steven however was just in a heap of half human on the floor whining and still slightly glowing. "It's happening."

"Are you trying to make me crash, little girl," Adam scolded briefly. "What's happening?"

She unbuckled her seatbelt, gaining warnings from the boys and knelt beside him while trying to precariously balance. "Super Sleepy Steven."

"Connie?" In a split second Steven had Connie in his arms using the strength he possessed and was using her as a teddy bear. "Ugh, I missed you so much. You looked so pretty on stage. I love you."

She chuckled and tried to strain against him but it was no use. "Well, he's getting there. He's still chatty." He shifted to grind against her hungrily and she yelped. "Steven, no! Bad! You need rest."

He smirked against her neck. "What? It's the same thing basically."

She groaned. "I was wrong! I was so wrong!"

Jacob pointed at Connie and laughed obnoxiously. "Remember that time you put me in a skirt and thigh highs and the guys absolutely decimated me?" He spread his arms and landed with pulling a sleeping Jasmin closer. "Karma."

"Keep talking shit and I'll do it again with my strap. And I promise you if I use the strap I use for Steven, you'll be wearing skirts for the rest of your life."

Adam readjusted the mirror to watch them bicker and smiled. "Hey, both of you play nice or I can park the van in the woods and you can duke it out there."

Connie shrugged. "Survivalist."

Jacob copied her just to irritate her. "I'm just a lucky idiot. Good things just happen to me. I got Jazzy and then I got you guys and now I'm in a band. At this point, I'd say count your losses."

Anna sighed happily. "I love you guys."

"Guys, not to be a whore or anything but I require your immediate attention and undying affection immediately," Steven mumbled. "I miss my partners too."

Hazel slid open an eye and snorted. "I'm right here. You're literally lying on my foot."

"I want more. I want you so close you might just get me pregnant."

They all exchanged surprised looks and Hazel chuckled. "When we get back to the hotel, you can get your snuggles."

As it turned out, getting Steven upstairs was the easiest part. The hardest part was not exploding from how precious he was.

Or maybe their perception was warped due to his physical cuteness.

"Uh uh. Don't scratch my chin like that, do it like this." Steven readjusted Hazels hand and melted into his touch. "Fuck, that's so nice,"
He drawled. "J-Jasmin–,"

"Mhm?"

He reached over to pat her head clumsily. "You can bite me harder than that, I don't need your sissy nibbles."

"You, Adam and Jacob," She grumbled, sinking them in an alarming amount before he hissed.

His hands slipped down to rub at Connie and Jacob. "You two are complete sluts," He giggled. "I'm so lucky."

Hazel traced a finger over his jawline. "Steven, you're the slut. You're a complete and total attention slut."

He blushed and either rolled his eyes or they just rolled back when Jacob and Connie somehow found a way to work together. "Shut up. I need it to r- oh my stars." The mind fog was so thick he went completely mute, only able to hear the gentle sounds of his friends pleasuring him. His head turned slightly to glance at Adam as he ran his fingers through his hair, fiddling with the coils.

Adams eyes met his a millisecond after he started staring. His senses were too sharp or something, it was difficult if not impossible not to get caught. "What? Did you need something?"

He groaned and tried to speak but the wind was knocked out of him.

He shrugged with fake cluelessness and smirked as he turned away. "Good talk, Steven."

"P-please?" He forced out.

Adam exchanged a look with Alex who shrugged innocently. He watched him struggle and forced the eye contact, analyzing his movements. "Ah," He tossed a dismissive hand. "You can get off harder than that. Build him back up."

It wasn't until the eighth time he was edged that Steven cracked. "Please, please, please!"

Adam ignored his sorrow and continued reading. "Mhm."

"I'll do anything you want!"

Everyone including Adam froze for a split second. The most criminally insane thing ever spoken needed a moment to breathe.

Adam's lips curved and he set down his book, his attention now 100% his. "You would do anything for me?" Truth be told, it would almost satisfy him more if Steven couldn't even try. He was Adam's biggest challenge when he'd do almost anything for a simple 'good boy' and some cuddles.

The unfortunate truth of Stevens body was it would demand release and continuously build him up quickly just to crash back down again and repeat the process. There was no way he'd even be able to without permission, not when Adam had tossed the cock ring at Connie and they shared a smile. Both parties agreed, which meant he was fucked but not satisfied.

"I would do anything," He promised. "I need it, I need to cum so bad."

Adam patted his head and pulled it onto his lap so he could rub his thumbs over his cheeks as he watched curiously. "I don't think you're going to be willing to do what I want."

"I will! Please!"

"You promise? Promise me like a man, only the girls get special treatment. If you squeak, I'll ignore you."

Steven pulled every tiny bit of bass left in his body and begged again. He barely passed as post pubescent, and judging from the humor in Adam's eyes, there was plenty of reason to be humiliated at the way he sounded. He was nearly drooling and trembling.

"Would you suffer longer, then?" Adam's satisfaction had already reached peak by the way Stevens face lost color. "You said anything, and I know the one thing I want most is the very thing you're trying to avoid."

As much as Steven wanted to say yes, he knew Adam would be heartless about just how long. "I-I'd do anything for love. But I won't do that."

A perfect safe code for a firm no. Adam's smile never wavered, in fact it almost looked even more cheerful. "You've moved me. Go ahead then."

Connie popped up and pulled her hair back again. "I have such a good life."

Hazel grabbed Steven's hand to kiss. "I'm having that ass for dessert if you need to get off for your powers to reset. I invoke my free use card."

"Why invoke when you can just take?" Steven mumbled. "That's an option."

Hazel trailed his finger up Steven's arm and smiled. "Because I'm not an entitled dick."

Adam grinned to himself before dropping it to be the little authoritarian he was always meant to be. "We're burning moonlight and I'm not feeling very generous. I'd say you guys have five minutes before I start making things impossible on purpose and punishing you for it."

Anna giggled and pressed her lips to Stevens ear, hoping to avoid Adam's sharp hearing. "Come on, Steven. Be a good boy and you won't fuck up my night too," She whispered, watching as Adam's eyes met hers immediately.

"Shit," Stevens eyes widened and he must have gripped Hazel harder by the sharp breath he made. "I-I'm close."

"What are we talking about that Daddy can't hear, Cupcake?" Adam's voice held warmth and real amused humor now, but the undertones were dead serious.

Anna knew how to turn it on. She sucked in her bottom lip and shrugged shyly. "It's a secret."

Through the build, Steven cursed Anna for getting him in trouble. "Sh-she said I'll fuck up her night t-too."

Anna's jaw dropped right out of the cute innocence. "Man, fuck you! I hope you fuck it up just so it takes longer!"

They made eye contact and giggled when they noticed Adam's million watt smile. He gestured to the two proudly. "My favorite snitches. You're both so sweet. You get away with it this time, but it transfers cause Daddies never forget, do they Hazel?"

He chuckled. "Nope. Steven give me a kiss."

He smirked. "Or what?"

"Starve and suffer then. Adam and I work together."

It was like the very second their lips met was the catalyst. Stevens glow returned at such a force only Connie knew to turn away and shield her eyes while she continued to pump firmly.

"Oh my god, I'm blind," Alex cried, smacking Adam square in the jaw as he waved his hands in front of him.

Adam took it like a tank, though an annoyed look tossed his way was clearly seen. "Anyways. How are you Steven?"

He answered by pulling him down on top of him and gripping his waist. "I'm not done yet. My powers are back but I guess Jasmin was right, I'm a total pervert."
