Rose's Son

Rose's Son Onshot

Beach city, it isn't exactly as fancy as Empire city, it's just a peaceful city. The sun has set on the horizon as the waves meet the shore and pulled back gently. A gentle breeze blew past a house that was hidden on one part of the beach. It was quiet, and all you could hear was the sound of a baby wailing.

Amethyst was playing with 6 month old Steven while Pearl was cooking dinner. After a short while, the sound of the door opening stopped them from their actions. It was Garnet. Steven happily smiled at the tall human and raised his arms attempting to let her carry him. Garnet smiled at Steven and raised him up.

"Hello Steven" she smiled and Steven was giggling. Pearl called out from the kitchen, placing plates on the table.

"Dinner's ready!" She said as the two sat on the table. The tall ginger haired woman took Steven from Garnet and placed him on his high chair.

"Is Greg not here yet?" Pearl asked while feeding Steven.

"He told me he was going to have overtime."

"Oh" not minding the situation, Pearl just continued feeding Steven. After everyone was done, Garnet rubbed Steven's back and he gave a hearty burp.

"Woah, someone's full" Amethyst said and Steven giggled then afterwards yawned.

"Alright, it's time for you to sleep" Garnet said as she cradled Steven and rocked him to sleep. Steven slept in Garnet's arms as he was placed in his crib. Pearl finished up chores and went to see Steven who was fast asleep on his crib.

Pearl looked around his room. This was Rose's room. All of her usual stuff wasn't there anymore and everything was baby proof. She sighed as she started remembering her again. As she was looking around, she found a pile of boxes. She slowly approached the boxes and there was something written on it. It read Rose's stuff. She slowly opened the box, careful not to wake Steven and looked inside.

All of her belongings were there and one item struck her. It was a photo taken 2 years ago kept in a frame. She saw everyone's smile on their faces and she kept looking at Rose's. Tears started to fall from the corners of her eyes as the sudden realization of her gone struck her.

"Oh Rose" She said and touched the frame.

"I can still remember the day..."

Rose came home with a cd in hand. Her long strawberry blonde hair swayed in as she walked inside. I approached her as she came.

"You're a little late, did you buy that cd?" I asked her. She looked down at the cd in her hand.

"No, I-" Then we heard Amethyst barge in the door.

"This long haired man was talking to me by the fence." She said as she went near the two.

"What?" I said confused at what Amethyst just said.

"I'll go ahead and change. Check who it is for me." Rose said and I nodded. Rose left the living room to her room leaving me and Amethyst.

"He was asking about Rose" She said and my brows furrowed. What does that man want with Rose? My thoughts were later disrupted by some unknown being downstairs. Amethyst went out and checked and I followed her behind. There was a long haired man holding a shirt outside the house. Amethyst pointed at him.

"Look, there he is!" She said

"Yo~" He said and Amethyst immediately went downstairs.

"Ugh, Amethyst, wait!" I said and followed her down.

"It's YOU! I've never seen this one around here before... Aww... I really like your hair!" Amethyst said as she ran around in circles around him. I caught her before she gets too hyper.
