Soon the pair arrived at the abandoned warehouse, it was a bit early so there were barely anyone there. Steven got out of the car with Spinel right behind him. "Don't we need tickets?" Spinel asked, noticing that there was a bouncer at the entrance. Sure Spinel knew how to sneak in at times, but this time she was with Steven. "Don't worry about it" Steven smiled softly as they approached the entrance. Spinel raised an eyebrow, wondering what he was planning. "Hey Bismuth" Steven waved at the rainbow colored hair female. "Hey Steven, going in?" She asked, knowing that he was alright to be let in. "Yea I am, this is Spinel" he indicated to the female next to him. "Ah you're Spinel? Pearl told.me about you, alright the both of you go on in, Sadie might need a little help" she chuckled, jerking her thumb in the direction of the entrance. Spinel's eyes were wide, surprised that Steven was able to get in easily, let alone with her. "What just happened?..." Spinel accidentally asked out loud, she then mentally kicked herself since that was supposed to be asked in her brain. "Oh Bismuth? She knew mom way back when, and has been one of the coolest people in my life" Steven smiled as he replied. "Oh, where is your mom?" Spinel asked gently. Steven shrugged and sighed lightly "shes gone...." He answered nonchalantly. What does he mean "she's gone"? Spinel asked herself.

     As soon as the two were in the warehouse, Steven was tackled  into a hug, picked up and twirled around a couple times by a very short, green haired girl. "Steven! I'm so glad you're here!" The girl exclaimed as she twirled Steven, then setting him down. "I'm glad to see you two Sadie, I'm surprised you can still pick me up" Steven joked. "No no, I mean we need your help" Sadie explained "Buck is stuck in traffic and is going to miss the first song, we need you to play in his place till he gets here" she finished. "Well yea sure!" Steven agreed to help "Spinel, will you be ok?" He asked. "Uh yeah" Spinel nodded, surprised again that Steven is friends with the whole band, which probably explained a lot. Steven then went off to help the band set up quickly before everyone arrived.

   About half an hour passed before the warehouse began to fill up, Spinel felt slightly out of place, that was until the music started. She stared at Steven, who looked a bit badass with an electric guitar, soon Sadie began to sing "The Working Dead".

"Tired from work
Hate my job
I really oughta be in mourning
But I've got another shift this morning
Everyday feels like it's never-ending
What's the point of all this time I'm spending
Here
At this
Dead-end job
Oh
We are the working dead
And we lurch for minimum wage
But I'd really rather be
Eating your brain
Look at you -- you seem so bright and healthy
And your minds are full of joy and wonder
Stay a thousand miles from the condition
That I've got from all the stress I'm under
Don't come near me or you might encourage
All these terrifying sudden urges
Seeing you makes skipping work so tempting
Don't you know that in the night, I'm temping
Here
At this
Dead-end job
Oh
We are the working dead
And we lurch for minimum wage
But I'd really rather be
Eating your brain"

   As soon as as Sadie was done singing, the whole crowd cheered. "Give it up for Steven Universe and his amazing guitar playing!" Sadie complimented, in which the crowd cheered even louder. Spinel never realized how popular Steven was when he wasn't at school. Steven soon got off the stage when Buck arrived to take back his place. Steven smiled as he stood next to Spinel once again "whatcha think?" He asked, smiling at her. Spinel gulped softly, not really knowing what to say "that was extremely cool~" Spinel complimented, in which Steven blushed a bit "thanks~" he replied. Soon the tall, white haired male named Sourcream started tossing out free glow sticks. Steven and Spinel caught a couple and put them on, soon they began to dance with each other. Steven at some point, took his phone out, and took a selfie with him and Spinel rocking out. After a few more songs, they decided to rest up against one of the walls, that was until Spinel told Steven that she had to use the bathroom and went to find the bathroom. She came back after a couple minutes, only to find Steven talking with another girl. Spinel's heart sunk a little, anger set in slowly as she walked quickly and stopped behind Steven, unbeknownst to the strange female or Steven. The girl then asked if Steven was single. "Ah well I-" Steven was cut off when Spinel snaked her arms under Stevens arms, and wrapped around his chest, hugging him tightly from behind. She rested her chin on Stevens shoulder and sneered at the girl angrily "no, I'm his girlfriend so fuck off!" She answered the stranger with an audible and intimidating growl. Steven's whole body heated up as a heavy blush set in on his face, GIRLFRIEND?!?!  was the last thing that came to his mind before his thought process completely shut down when shock set in. The strange girl got the message and wandered off, however Spinel continued to hug Steven from behind. "Sp-Spinel?" Steven was about to ask her something but Spinel hushed him. "Shut up and just let me hold you, it feels.....nice...." She told him before nuzzling his shoulder. Steven shut his mouth and remained silent, that was until the last song ended, "Spinel? The concert is over..." He gulped. Soon Spinel slowly let go of Steven, which made Steven turn around to face her. "Spinel? Are you ok? What was that?" He asked, indicating to her seemingly jealous attitude to the other girl. "I know that girl, she would've played with your heart and tossed you aside...." Spinel mumbled her explanation, crossing her arms over her chest. "Ok?..." Steven cocked his head, not completely understanding why Spinel did what she did.

   "It's getting late, I should take you home" Steven told her, in which Spinel grabbed his hand and squeezed it a little in response. Steven then lead Spinel back to the car and started to drive her home. Spinel then turned on the radio, in which a song began to play from a CD, which made Steven smile a bit.

"What can I do for you?

What can I do that no one else can do?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?
Human man

You are so much fun
I hadn't planned
On finding you quite this entertaining
I like your band
And I like your song
I like the way
Human beings play
I like playin' along
Oh-oh-oh-oh whoa-oh
What can I do for you?

What can I do that no one else can do?
What can I do for you?
What can I do for you?"

Spinel didn't recognize the two singers from the song "who was that?" She asked Steven. Steven gave a small chuckle "mom and dad sang a song together, that was the two of them singing" Steven explained as he continued to drive. "Huh, they both sound great together" Spinel stated, liking the song a lot "hey, where is your dad?" She asked. "He lives in his van, but stays with us during the winter. He's a really great dad" Steven smiled "maybe you'll meet him soon" he chuckled as he pulled up in front of Spinel's house. Spinel got out of the car and approached Stevens car door, which made the male roll down the window. "Hey, thanks....for the best birthday ever...." She blushed a bit, leaning on the door. Steven smiled a little, happy to make her happy "you're welcome~". Spinel met Stevens brown eyes for a few seconds before leaning in and pecking his cheek. "Ok bye!" She waved goodbye before rushing into her house quickly. Steven was in a complete of shock, watching her rush off into the house. He then began to smile widely and happily, holding his hand to the cheek that Spinel pecked before driving back home. Of course, Pearl asked Steven a million questions on how today went as soon as he entered his house.
