Steven: before I do anything before
We chat I need to have a quick word
With my boss um Mr. Goldberg
It was nice doing business with you
I enjoyed working at your music studio I love doing songs thank you
For this opportunity if I never see you
Again can I at least publish one more song before I go?

George: sure kid have at it *sniffs*
We were glad having you here it was
A pleasure doing business with you
Too! And here

*hands Steven his monthly paycheck
Of $200,000*

You earned it! Now go play that funky
Music!

Steven: you got it boss!

Steven adjust the tempo and added
Some sound effects but kept the volume at a medium and he played
The las song and he also made
A new album.

Cool isn't it and the song will blow
Your mind Steven started hitting it
Off not missing a beat

I guess I'll have to face that in this
Awful place I shouldn't show a trace
Of doubt but pulled against the grain
I feel a little pain that I would rather do without... I rather be free free freeee! I rather be free free free!
From here....

The gems and Greg and connie
Clapped and Steven took a bow
Greg wide awake again still furious
With son when and after he fainted
He still encouraged Steven to follow
His dream and the gems and connie
Did their best as well to give him
Support after the song was over Steven published it and then he was done the gems and Greg and connie
Had stern expressions once again which made Steven a little uneasy
But he knew he had it coming but his
Heart still needed mending he felt
A sudden guilt within his heart
He felt an emotional weight on his
Shoulders his heart hurt he did missed his family a whole lot but
Then again he kinda didn't cause he
Knew it was his fault for taking their
Leader away he took rose away from
Them even his dad missed his mom
And it was his fault for making garnet
Unfuse back on the ship and it was
His fault for not coming back to lapis and for not preventing lapis and jasper from forming malachite now she's trapped again and he cant save her... he felt like having a meltdown again but he manage to let out a
Smile although it was more of a uneasy smile he felt his spine shiver
He started to feel guilt and anxiety
He felt depressed and he felt devoid
Of emotion he felt lifeless. He also
Thought about how he tried to fuse with the gems but he couldn't even
Get that right!? He tried to give pearl
Back rainbow quartz as well as
Whatever fusion garnet and amethyst
Did with mom he felt his lip quiver
He tried to hold back tears he knew it
Was all his fault he tried not to clench
His fist his body betrayed him however... But he tried to calm himself down by singing to himself
This made his boss confused
And the gems greg and connie worried was something wrong?

Steven sung one of his favourites
He pulled up a chair and sat down
And sung loud

If I could begin to be half of what
You think of me I could do about
Anything I could even learn how to
Love-- when I see the way you act wondering when I'm coming back
I could do about anything I could
Even learn how to love like you
Love like you love me like you...

Stevens eyes sagged he was getting
Tired of hiding his emotions he started to wonder... But he started
Singing again to ease his nerves

He sighed heavily

Steven: I'm ready to go bye Mr.
Goldberg enjoy the rest of your afternoon

George: bye...

They walked out of the building
And hopped back on lions well...
Back

*timeskip to when they got back to the temple...*

Pearl: Steven what were you thinking!? Running off like that we were more than worried sick your
GROUNDED!

Garnet: *takes off her visors* never
Scare us like this again and then the
*Stern look broke and she hugged Steven* my Cutie pie!

Amethyst: do I was worried

Greg: don't ever do that again
We were worried sick about
You shtuball but I'm glad you followed
In your old man's footsteps and I'm proud but just don't do that again ok
I don't want to run fresh out of family
Y'know *ruffles his sons hair* I'm
Glad you followed your dreams I couldn't be more proud

Connie: I missed you I couldn't believe
You did that to your jam bud to your
Best friend why did you run away?

*Steven felt guilt all he could mumble
Was I'm sorry then he put his hands
In his pockets and look away*

Steven: I can't tell you

Connie: please Steven just talk to
Us were here to help you

Steven: SINCE WHEN DO YOU CARE
ABOUT ME !?

Connie: don't be ridiculous I care
About you so much I cared about you
Ever since we met I care about you
Because your my friend

*Steven just shed tears and looked up
At his mom's portrait he started singing*
