Over the next course of a few days, the weather gradually began to let up and the rain showers and cold spells ceased, and the summer weather had finally taken full swing, with the sun's light and heat beating down prominently on the beach, effectively drying any traces of rain and filled the sand with a comfortable warmth.

And for once, Centi felt that it was time for you to come out of the nest and stretch your limbs for a bit. Of course, you stood within the range of the beach house, since it was too risky to wander off somewhere Centi and the CGs couldn't see you. Besides, you didn't want to evoke anymore attention from that Ronaldo fellow. Luckily, you have no interest in traveling too far, and you were just content to sunning yourself in front of the beach house.

Today, while Centipeedle was out looking for goods, you were sprawled out on a fluffy blanket, soaking up the sun's rays while munching on some chaaaps. And after much teachings from Steven, you had learned how to read, which was an excellent way to pass time and so far, your favorite genre was (genre).

You were in the middle of a paragraph when you began to feel drowsy. After placing a (pattern) bookmark into your page and switching on the radio to play (song), you rest your chin on your forearms and shut your eyes, falling into a brief power nap.

However, after about 5 minutes or so...

"Heeeeey, mama bear."

You were suddenly roused awake by a familiar, spunky voice calling from the direction of the beach house. You cracked an eye open, just in time to find a small purple gem jogging her way over to you. Though you were drowsy, you still smiled politely at the gem. "Hello, Ameythyst."

"Good to see you're finally out of that nest! Was starting to thing Cen-10 would never let ya out!" Ameythyst mused, chuckling softly as she looked back and forth. "Speakin' of which, where's the big C? Haven't seen her in a hot minute..." She asked, a note of worry in her voice. "She's not gonna sneak attack me, is she?"

You shook your head, giving the gem a reassuring smile. "Centi is just out getting food." You assured her. "She'll be back in a bit."

The gem visibly relaxed after hearing this as she lets out a long breath. "Phew. Good. Least I don't have to worry about getting my face melted off." You couldn't help but chuckle at this. "Centi wouldn't do that." You stated, your smile turning into a smug smirk. "...not on purpose that is." Ameythyst groaned, rolling her eyes while you broke into a fit of mischievous giggles. Ameythyst snickered a bit, before sighing.

"Hey... uh..." Ameythyst then looks at you, suddenly appearing tired. "Mind if I... hang with you for a bit?" She asked, her voice suddenly dimmed. "P's in a mood today and I'm not trying to deal with it..."

"What happened?" You asked, turning to look at her in concern. She huffed, slumping her shoulders. "Ah, ya know... Something about me being careless because I didn't do something she liked during a mission." She sighed.

You frowned at this. Despite being teammates, pearl and Ameythyst's contrasting preferences often had them at each other's necks. Typically, It'd be pearl complaining about Ameythyst's lack of hygiene or Ameythyst doing something pearl didn't agree with which often resulted in bickering. It'd only stop if garnet or Steven separated them or if one manages to outspeak the other. And from what you could tell, today pearl "won" this match.

Although you wanted to be alone at the moment, you couldn't help but sympathize with the sullen purple gem. It isn't her fault that her standards don't meet with pearl's. Soon or later, these differences would have to be met. But for now, It was probably best to separate the two completely until everything has simmered down. "Sure."
