"Spinel, where are we going?...." Steven grumbled, his mood fouled from his encounter with Kevin and Sarah, he also was worried that Spinel was thinking that this special evening was ruined. "Somewhere private" Spinel simply answered as she continued to lead her boyfriend away from the prom, the upbeat energy from the music continued to fade away the further the pair walked. Spinel then stopped in front of a door, her left hand wrapped around the doorknob before giving it a little jiggle, the knob turned to indicate that it was unlocked, which allowed her to open the door with ease. One of Stevens eyebrows were raised, and he turned his head to ask something, but was ultimately shushed when he felt Spinel gently shoved him into the room, his brown eyes watched as Spinel shut the door behind the two. The room that the couple were in appeared to be an old classroom that was converted in a makeshift storage room, a few stacked up chairs, a couple wooden tables, and a metal desk were seen since the only light source was the moonlight shining dimly through the window. Steven watched Spinel carefully as she walked to the metal desk, only to turn around and jump onto the desk backwards by using her arms to boost herself up, she smirked as she now sat on top of the cold metallic surface. He couldn't help but stare at Spinel in the moonlight, "so beautiful, oh god she's going to be the end of me, how'd I get so lucky?" He mentally asked himself, however his train of thought was interrupted when he heard Spinels voice say "Come here Universe~". The slightly grumpy Steven slowly stepped towards the female, he swore he saw hearts in her eyes once again as he felt her soft hands cup his face ever so gently, which ultimately made him blush extremely hard. "Ya know something Doll? I find it EXTREMELY sexy when you curse like that~" Spinel chuckled lowly before pulling Steven into a loving kiss. Steven could feel his grumpy anger wash away as he melted into the kiss, his hands began to grip onto her waist as he stepped even closer, and he could feel her hands slowly leave his face and soon became entangled in his curly brown locks. Spinel sighed softly in the kiss, she could never get over how soft his lips were, so plush, so addicting, and she couldn't help but crave for more. After biting on Stevens bottom lip playfully, she could hear him gasp as he opened his mouth just enough for Spinel to shove her tongue inside. Steven could feel his whole body shudder when Spinels tongue brushed against his, his left hand slowly trailed up her body only to be entangled with her fuchsia colored hair, while his right hand trailed even further down her body, his fingers played with the ruffles of her short dress before his hand gripped at the underside of her thigh. Spinel slowly pulled away, leaving a string of saliva between the two as she panted, "damn Steven I don't think I'll ever get over your lips a-a-ahh~" she began to speak, only to squeak out that last part due to her feeling Stevens lips under her chin. Her breathing hitched as Steven's kisses trailed down the front of her neck a bit, this was new and exciting, she's always been the dominant one during their makeout sessions, but now it's as if the roles have switched. "Nnng S-Steven~" Spinel couldn't help but gasp and sigh when her boyfriend's kissed trailed up the left side of her neck, but she had to bite her lip when his kiss landed directly on a spot under her jawline. Steven didn't know exactly what he was doing, his neck kisses were a bit sloppy since he had never really done anything like this before, but it felt so good when Spinel toyed with his neck like this, he wanted her to feel what he always felt, and possibly even more then that. The silence that occured when Steven kissed on that certain spot indicated that she may or may not have enjoyed what he did, so he pushed his luck a bit and nibbled on that same spot, which earned a shiver from the female, which was also followed by a soft groan. Spinel could feel a type of fire spread through her body, her legs wrapped around his waist as to pull him even closer, craning her head so the male could have better access to her throat. Steven smirked against her skin before resuming his sucking, kissing, and nibbling, "hah-ah~ S-Steven, y-you're gonna l-leave a m-mark~" he heard her sputter. "You always leave marks on me when we're alone like this~" Steven teased, before pulling away to admire his blushing girlfriend, her face was red while she panted, which made her look so cute in his eyes.

   "S-Steven, as much as I love what you're doing right now, we still need to talk about what happened on the dance floor..." Spinel gulped in order to ease her rapidly beating heart. Steven sighed softly, he'd been angry before that was true, but he'd never reached that level of rage before. He was glad that Penelope intervened when she did, otherwise he would've found himself being dragged to the principal's office. "He insulted you, I just couldn't take it, I wanted tonight to be perfect and we had to bump into....them....and I was going to let the insults at me slide, but I saw red when Kevin degraded you....I got so angry and....god is that how it feels when you become extremely angry at someone?" Steven asked, his brown eyes studying his girlfriends face as he asked his question. Spinel giggled softly before resting her arms on Stevens shoulders, "yeah, you don't have much of a temper as I do Doll, which is probably a good thing" she giggled before kissing his forehead. "But.....but I've never wanted to punch someone first, usually someone else instigates the fight. Is it bad that I wanted to punch him first?" Steven asked softly, his brown colored orbs glassed over as tears pricked the corner of his eyes. Spinel noticed this and frowned, her hands slowly inched towards his cheeks to cup his face once again, only to to lean towards him and kiss the tears from his eyes, tasting the saltiness of his tears, "Steven Dollface, it's ok to be angry. It's ok to want to punch someone, but it's only ok to do that when they start a fight with you. I know it's hard for me to control my temper sometimes, I can be snappy, and violent at times, but I do remember a few things to help me calm down" she explained softly as her forehead rested against his. "Wh-What?" Steven asked gently, his smile beginning to return as he felt Spinel rest her head against his, which also made his heart flutter. "I remember your goofy ass smile and the reason why you smile~" Spinel chuckled before pulling Steven in for another loving kiss. Steven immediately melted into the kiss once again, feeling reassured with the fact that it was ok to be angry at times, however his mind remained unsettled due to one other fact, that other factor of his life he must admit to his girlfriend.

   "That's not the only thing that I need to tell you, I was going to wait till tomorrow since I wanted tonight to be perfect but... Well that hope is in the gutter so I may as well tell you now...." Steven began to speak after he pulled away from the kiss, his voice slightly shaky as he gripped onto the metal desk. Spinel could only cock her head in response, feeling confused, concerned, and worried for her boyfriend, "what is it Steven? You can tell me...." She reassured him. Steven's brown eyes glanced down, his grip tightened on the metal desk before he sighed, "you know how I've been awarded several scholarships for my musical aspects and stuff? Well after pondering my choices for so long, well I've decided on one that I know can that'll help me with the career path I've chosen" he began to explain. "Oh, did you choose the one in Empire City?" Spinel asked, now placing her hands directly on his chest, the feeling of his rapidly beating heart spiked her curiosity. "No..... further away.... abroad in France....." Steven admitted, he could feel Spinels hands clench into fists as she gripped his button up shirt, and his brown eyes glanced up to lock onto her glassed over pink colored orbs. "F-France?....b-but that's so f-far..." Spinel stated, her bottom lip quivered as she spoke, her heart felt like it dropped and shattered into a million little shards "wh-when? When are you l-leaving? For how long? " She asked in a panicked manner. Steven was a bit taken aback by her sudden mood change, "i-i leave on the first day of September and...." He bit his lip in hesitation before finishing his words "a-and I'll be gone f-for four years...." He sighed softly. "I-I'll..... I'll come with you then! I know m-my grades aren't the best but we can r-rent an apartment....o-or I can secretly s-stay in your dorm room! I-I can learn French as well!" Spinel stated, her grip tightned even more on his black button up shirt as makeup stained tears trickled down her face, her eyes wide with panic and fear, fear of being left alone once again. Steven realized that she was having a type of panic attack, he grabbed her hands from the lapel of his shirt and gently yanked them away before holding her fists tightly in his hands, "Spinel you can't hide in my dorm room for four years....I know you don't want me to go, and I don't want to leave you behind, but this will be my chance to provide for a better future, that is.....if you'd be in my future.....I know four years seems like a long time, but it will pass by so quickly, a-and we still have the whole summer together!". Spinel could only stare at her boyfriend, desperately clinging to his hopefulness, only to break down sobbing, "S-Steven I want you t-to follow y-your dreams b-but.... I-I d-don't wanna be alone...." she admitted in-between her tears. Steven immediately went from rubbing her knuckles with his thumbs to cupping her face, now his thumbs were wiping away her blackened tears, "Spinel listen to me! You're not alone, you have friends now. Pink Pearl, Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Peridot, Jasper, and yes I know you're still warming back up to Penelope again, but she's still there as a friend you can talk to. Besides, I'm going to FaceTime you every night till I come home, and we still have the whole summer together!" he quickly explained to reassure his girlfriend a bit. "Y-You know I'm not going to be able to leave you alone all summer right?" Spinel joked, her chuckle was saddened since she knew he'd be leaving in the end. "I didn't plan on leaving you alone all summer either my little bunny~" Steven chuckled softly before  leaning in and kissing Spinel forehead, making her blush from the nickname that the male gifted her.
