ES:AU Speeds Determination

Pearl's Independence (Part 13)

Pearl:(...)

Pearl:(I've been wanting for him to love me for some time now but...)

Pearl:(After some time... I am sure this is what I want..?)

-Flashback-

Black:Don't get me wrong she can be cute some times but, the measures she took to get my attention.. she just turned into a real pain, of course..! I still care for her, just not in a way that I would want to be her lover, sometimes it's important to think of how of a relationship carefully and how it could go in the future, if I were to be pearl's lover, that relationship is mostly destined to fail..

Silvia(Pearl):O-Oh.. okay..

-End of flashback-

Pearl:(Destined to fail...)

Pearl:(I need to ask speed for some advice..)

-Later-

Lazuli:We are back!

Sunshine:Daddy! Mommy! You actually made it back!

Lazuli:(Oh no not this again..) U-Uhh.. What..?

Crystal:It's about time, so...

Crystal:Hey lazuli, how did the date go?

Lazuli:Speed told you it wasn't a date!

Crystal:Whatever.

Pearl:Hey lazuli.

Lazuli:?

Pearl:Mind if I speak to speed in private for a bit? Need to tell him something.

Lazuli:Uh sure..?

Pearl:Just tell him to come to my room.

Lazuli:Alright..? I'll tell him i guess.

Pearl:Thanks.

Lazuli:(What could she possibly want to tell him? Meh it's probably nothing)

Speed:Well glad that's taken care of.

Lazuli:Hey speed, pearl said she wants to talk to you in private.

Speed:What for?

Lazuli:I don't know, but maybe you should go, since she does look kinda sad or upset. By the way she said the private talk should be on her room.

Speed:I mean.. if you say so.

-One walk later-

*Speed knocks on pearl's door*

Speed:Pearl? Are you there?

Pearl:?

Pearl:Oh, I assume lazuli told you right?

Speed:Yeah, is there anything you wanted to ask me?

Pearl:Well come inside.

Speed:Okay?

Speed:Soooo.. What did you want to tell me?

Pearl:It's about black.

Speed:Oh, anything happened between you and him?

Pearl: It's just... I've been having.. second thoughts...

Speed:Second thoughts?

Pearl:You see, when I was in Silvia's body to hang out with him, when I asked him about how he felt about me.

Pearl:It wasn't the best response that I would've expected..

Speed:What? What did he say?

Pearl:He said that, He does care for me and stuff, but he just doesn't care for me in the way of being my lover, he said that would most likely be a relationship destined to fail.
