Steven and Connie warped into the old palace on Homeworld. Gems of all kinda wandered about, playing and laughing. Steven smiled happily, his heart swelling at the starry eyed girl turning to gaze around the impressive room. "Hey Connie..."

Connie turned her attention from the room to look at him. "What?"

He shrugged as a smile spread from ear to ear.

She narrowed her eyes and raised an eyebrow. "What??"

"Tag you're it!!" Steven poked her shoulder and took off in a joyous race. Connie laughed as Steven dodged her reaching hand and turned sharply to the left, causing the ebony girl to skid and turn with him, just nicking his pinky. They changed sides, Steven in hot pursuit of Connie, and her running like her life depended on it. Which, as far as she was concerned, it did.

"Stupid King Of Spontaneity..." she growled as she ducked and fell into a tuck and roll.
*A day passes*

"Steven I need your help with-"

"Oh! Uh let me see if I can-"

"No Steven it's important that I have your full attention for our meeting-"

"Oh hey Yellow, well White just asked me to-" Steven sighed as Blue walked in.

"Steven we never spend any time together and I was just wondering if-"

"Blue..." Stevens eye twitched and he ran a hand over his face. "I don't have any-"

"STEVEN!!! Heya big brotha! Say, what'd ya say we fuse and cause some trouble around Beach City?"

"STOP IT!!!" Steven scowled as his skin turned a bright pink. Everyone went silent, tensing for the old Pink Diamond tantrums only to relax... it was only Steven. He sighed and breathed back in again. The pink dimmed a bit but he didn't completely relax, his shoulders were tense and his teeth clenched. "I *think*- I think I need a break..."

He turned without getting a response and kept walking until he stood before a familiar room. The door was cracked open and he poked his head inside curiously.

"Hey Biscuit..." Connie sat on a King sized bed her legs spread and her fingers caressing the folds as her eyes bore into his. Her mouth was still slightly agape from calling him by his nickname.

Steven turned and closed the door, locking it three different ways before taking off his shirt and crawling over her. "I knew you'd surprise me with something lovely like this..." he nuzzled into her neck.

"I heard you have a bit of a meltdown... thought I'd help you release some tension." She rolled him onto his back, nipping at his lips. "Let me take care of you."

His Adam's apple bobbed and Steven nodded. "Y-yeah... okay."
