Time skip*

Despite with a short time, you guys win particularly because of your fast hands and mr smiley couldn't caught up with you. Mr. smiley is shock at what happened.

Iron: Well that was fun.

You: It is isn't it. Mr. smiley, (smirks at mr smiley*) our prize please.

Mr. Smiley: Well, you guys win fare and square! (turns around*)

Mr. smiley murmurs because you outsmart him again. Mr. smiley gets the prize and gave it to iron.
As soon as you two get the giant duck teddy bear. You two leave.

Time skip*

You: So, iron. Why did you pick that game?

Iron: (carrying the teddy bear*) Ow nothing really. I just found the name funny.

You: (chuckles*) I thought so too.

You: So, what did peridot and lapis think about our relationship?

Iron: Well.

Flashback*

Iron (narrator): After the rubies leave, we decided to repair the barn. There were a lot of problems like the pipes are rusty, there are holes on the ceiling, trash everywhere. I also thought this might be a way to get close on the two especially to lapis for forgiving me after you know, what I did.

Iron: Well, since we got nothing better to do. Why don't we fix the barn?

Peridot: That's a nice suggestion iron, this primitive area certainly needs some repairing if we will make ourselves comfortable.

Iron: Well, looks like peridot agrees. (to lapis*) What do you think lapis?

Lapis wasn't fond with the whole being roommates thing especially with iron. But after lapis saw peridot trying to prove to lapis that peridot really change lapis might gave her a chance. Lapis's opinion about iron is unclear but lapis trust you. If iron really change that much at the point you trust iron to be your girlfriend, was enough for lapis to gave iron a second chance

Lapis: (tooks a sigh*) Fine. (smiles a little*)

Peridot: Yay! With all of our strength combine we can finish anytime we want! Nyehehehe.

Iron (narrator): And to my surprise we did get a lot of work done around the barn. Peridot remove the old pipes and replace it with new ones. I cover the holes on the ceiling. And lapis was the one incharge of taking out the trash.

You (background): You three can be a great trio if we're being honest.

Iron (background): (chukcles*) Thanks, but it will take a long time to achieve that.

Iron (narrator): It was now night time. Peridot was relaxing outside the barn for I don't know fresh air or just resting in general. We were just about done, the only thing to do are to arrange some boxes. Me and lapis are helping each other to make the job easier and faster.

Iron: So,(rubbing the back of her neck*) lapis. Do you forgive me now?

Lapis:... I don't know, maybe... No.
