Gem smiled at Pearl, "Skizz is... occupied right now but there's lots of other things you can do here." Tilly made a small barking noise before brushing against Gem's dress, and trying to climb it. Gem laughed, picking Tilly up and patting her. Tilly licked Gem's face which only made her laugh more. "Awww- Aren't you a cutie? Who's a good girl? you are." Pearl smiled. She loved being around Gem. Gem was her best friend (As well as Skizz)... Gem's laugh was probably one of the most beautiful things Pearl had ever heard... "Come on, I know the best places to go in the palace-" Gem tugged Pearl's arm, putting Tilly gently down as she did. Tilly not seeming to want to be put down, trying to climb back into Gem's arms. Gem gave her another pet, before tugging Pearl along. *A couple of hours later* And here's where we watch the sunset. "It's beautiful..." "And romantic too... It's what my parents watched together on their first d@te. And the night, Scar proposed..." "Aw- That's cute." Pearl hadn't noticed that she was holding Gem's hand until now. Gem smelt wonderful... Like wildflowers and magic. Whatever magic smelt like... Pearl wasn't sure but it was lovely... "It's getting late-" "No one will notice we're gone. You should stay, Pearl." Maybe it was the way Gem looked at her or something that Pearl had never noticed she felt about Gem that made her do this. She kissed Gem. And Gem? Gem kissed her back. "I- I have to go-" "Gem- wait-" And Pearl was left alone
