Even as an adult Steven couldn’t withstand the tickling from this small gem. He laughed profusely, leaning over her a bit in the process.“AquhahaHAHA!!”Today was a good day.
Send me a “I want the H” and I will randomly generate a number!
7. “Something scared me” hug
Aquamarine and Opal were watching one of TD’s horror movies in the living room of Amanda Young, on the couch with blankets and pillows around them. TD had gone to bed a while ago but said the gems could continue watching if they liked.
And so they were.
The gems were watching one of the dubbed “classics” and it was something they’ve never seen before.
“Her friends are dying, why isn’t she trying to fight what’s killing her friends?” Aqua asked with a frown pressed upon her lips.
“Maybe she can’t...” Mumbled Opal. Aqua looked over at the younger gem, who was avoiding looking back by keeping her gaze glued to the tv. “I mean, she has no weapons and the killer’s probably--” Opal cut off with a scream as the girl they were talking about in the movie met her demise in a jumpscare-esque fashion.
Her face went into her hands as she tried to hold back a panicked sob. Aqua moved over to hug her comfortingly, attempting to use comforting words to calm her down. The door to TD’s room flew open and the boy ran out into the living room in his pajamas, sporting a bedhead and a panicked look on his face.
“What happened?!”
“Nothing, nothing! Opal just got a bit frightened, that’s it...”
TD frowned and went over to the couch, taking the space beside Opal and putting a hand on her shoulder reassuringly. “Hey, it’s alright... It was just a movie, okay?” A few heartbeats later, she pulled her dampened face out of her hands and nodded weakly.
“What were you guys even watching?”
“Well. We’re... not sure, actually.”
“...Okay, I don’t think I’m gonna allow you guys to watch spoops on your own from now on.”
((YOU JUST WANT ME TO SUFFER DON’T YOU))How could this happen?She doesn’t remember what struck Aqua down, nor does she remember dashing across the grassy area to catch her. When her mind awakens, the blue gem is shaking in her hold, and her vision is blurry from the tears that threaten to fall.“No, no this isn’t..you can’t just. You can, can heal yourself can’t you???” Her voice was desparate and pleading, as if hoping by some miracle this could happen. Aquamarine turned her head slowly, and laid her hand down on the one shaking furiously in her hair.“It’s okay, Bloo….I’m-”Her words were cut off as her projected form poofed, and her gems scattered onto the ground. The elder gem screamed and ran frantically to collect the pieces, searching and searching. Hours passed by, and still she dug at the ground looking for the final shards. Her face was wet with tears of agony, clutching the blue gem shards in one hand and clawing at the dirt in the other. As nightfall came, the others decided it was best to pull her back. She struggled hard, she fought until her knees buckled beneath her and all she could do was press her face into the dusty, grassy ground.This was a nightmare.
SEND ME “YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE” FOR MY MUSE’S REACTION TO YOURS DYING IN THEIR ARMS
She let out a hiss, eyes blinking a couple times as she pressed her hand against the shattered shard in her arms. A bile forming in the back of her throat as she looked at the fallen friend, she spits, feeling disgusted at everyone and everything, she clenches the crushed gem, squeezing until it’s smashed into blue dust , “ They’ll pay “
