Chp 22 (treatment)

    Soft, was the first word to pop into Stevens head as he started to wake up. He was slightly confused since he fell asleep in a type of sitting position on the couch, and was wondering how he laid down since he fell asleep on Spinel's shoulder. Steven slowly opened his eyes, the light hurt his eyes, he then realized that he has a head splitting headache. His hand was on something warm, soft and flat, he sat up slowly, hissing a little since his headache hurt really badly. The blanket slowly falling off of his warmed up body. Stevens mind hadn't caught up to reality yet, for he didn't notice that Spinel's shirt rode up her body a bit, and Stevens hand was laying flat on her stomach. Steven blinked a bit before his mind slapped him silly, making him realize the position he was in. He blushed heavily before scooting backwards  fast in a state of shock. Spinel stirred a bit in her sleep, before slowly opening her eyes due to Stevens movement. Steven was still blushing a bit, then he sneezed into his elbow loudly. "Steven?" Spinel called his name softly, sitting up slowly, her shirt falling back down into place. "Hi Spinel.....I don't feel so good...." Steven winced, resting his head on the cushioned arm of the couch. Spinel pouted a little before scooting closer to Steven, putting her hand on his forehead "you're burning up, you might have a fever...." She sighed softly. Steven whimpered softly as he felt Spinel's hand on his head. "Rest your head, I'm gonna make you some chicken soup, and get some medicine for you ok?" She told Steven before standing up. Steven chuckled a bit "you're gonna spoil me if you keep treating me like this~" Steven joked before coughing hard. Spinel sighed softly "you've helped me many times even when I felt like I didn't deserve it, please just let me do this ok?" She stated before going to the kitchen.

   Steven sneezed a couple of times as Spinel made the soup, as the soup heated up, Spinel grabbed medicine for Steven and gave it to him. Steven took the medicine and sighed "I'm sorry I scared you earlier, I didn't know that the ice was too thin...." He mumbled. Spinel looked at him and frowned softly "you couldn't have known ok? I'm just glad I caught you when I did...." She bit the inside of her cheek "I was afraid I was going to lose you...." She finished, walking back over to him with the soup. Steven looked at the blanket on the couch, feeling both grateful, and terrible about what happened. He was grateful that it wasn't Spinel who fell in, and grateful for Spinel for taking care of him. But Steven also felt terrible for scaring Spinel like that, he never wanted that to happen again. Spinel handed him the bowl soup with a spoon, but then the doorbell rang.

   Spinel sighed and got up as Steven sipped his soup, both wondering who was at the door. Spinel opened the door, which revealed Amethyst holding a snowball. "Yo Spinel, what're you doing here?" Amethyst asked, tossing the snowball up and down in her hand. "Me and Steven were ice skating this morning and he fell in-" Spinel began to explain before Amethyst's face shown shock and worry "WHAT?!" The purple haired female voice broke as she shouted, dropping her snowball before rushing inside. Spinel was a bit shocked at home fast Amethyst could move, but stepped aside fast enough to where she wasn't run over. "Steven?!?? Are you ok?!?!" Amethyst asked, looking over the sickly male. "I'm fine, I just have a nasty cold right now..." Steven whimpered "Spinel has been taking really good care of me, heck I'm surprised she carried me into the car and into the house" he joked. Steven replied before sipping more of his soup. "Adrenaline can make you do a lot of things that you didn't know you could do" Spinel added before plopping back onto the couch.

  "Well I was gonna have a snowball fight with Steven, but I got a better idea~" Amethyst smirked "movie marathon~" she finished, looking at the shelves where there were movies placed. "Mm, alright then" Spinel shrugged in response as Steven nodded in agreement to a movie marathon. Amethyst picked a comedy movie and popped it into the DVD player, she then plopped onto the couch next to Spinel. Steven soon finished his soup and laid his head on Spinel's shoulder, which prompted the female to blush a bit as she wrapped her arm around him. After the movie ended, Steven excused himself to use the bathroom, and to brush his teeth. As soon as he was out of earshot, Amethyst gave Spinel a mischievous grin "sooooo you guys seem pretty close~" she teased. Spinel blushed at her statement, it was true though, she and Steven have grown a lot closer since their first meeting. "S-so?" Spinel stuttered, making Amethyst's grin widen a bit. "I'm surprised you guys hadn't made out yet~" Amethyst continued her teasing, knowing it was making the female blush harder. That thought burned into Spinel's mind, she never thought about what it'd be like to kiss Steven, and now that idea was on loop through in her mind. "Wh-why would we ever d-do that?..." Spinel mumbled, stuttering in the process as she looked away. "It's so obvious you like him~" Amethyst teased, she was obviously joking and didn't realize it was true. "I-it is?..." Spinel squeaked out, wondering how Amethyst found out. Amethyst's eyes widened at Spinel's words "wait it is true?!" she asked surprised. Spinel realized that Amethyst was only joking earlier and had just admitted that she liked Steven romantically. Amethyst's grin widened into a large smile, biting her bottom lip a little as she squealed, which made Spinel feel embarrassed. "When did you find out?~" Amethyst asked excitedly, scooting a little closer. Spinel's blush deepened a more before she sighed softly "the night of the fall dance.....but I think I've been liking him for a lot longer then that...." She admitted. Spinel remembered enjoying Stevens jacket, her being more open with Steven than anyone else, her enjoying Stevens hugs and hand holding, her being jealous when other girls talked to him for so long, her being clingy from time to time, just her enjoying Steven in general in both good and bad times. "So are you gonna tell him?" Amethyst asked, which made Spinel snap out of her thoughts. "N-no, I don't think I will...." She answered right before Steven came down the stairs. Steven was wondering what she meant by "I don't think I'll tell him" since he only heard the last part of the conversation. He sat back next to Spinel and rested his head on Spinel's shoulder again. "So what were you guys talking about?" Steven asked, looking at the two. "Oh nothing, just girl stuff" Amethyst answered before shooting Spinel a quick wink before Steven noticed, she got up and put another movie in which was a romance movie. Spinel knew what that wink meant, it meant "I'll keep your secret for now, but I'll still tease you about it when Steven's not around"
