Crystal Gems X Reader Oneshots

Lapis X Reader (Okay)

My eyes went to the barn where Peridot was showing off what looked like a portable fan stuck in a cinderblock.

"I should..." I ran in after them.

Okay. So I might have lied to you when I said that I wasn't avoiding Lapis. I mean... Sure I had her trust before, but it's weird. I told her no to fusing with her. I was selfish for doing that. I kept saying it was that she wasn't ready, I told her that too. I could have hurt her feelings by refusing. But then again, she asked if I wanted to. And consent is really important. So no is always an option.

Night came. Steven had fallen asleep so I picked him up to take him home.

"(Y/N)," It was Peridot who had spoken up, "What happened with you and Lapis?"

My eyes dashed to the sleeping gem on her hammock.

"She's asleep. Now tell me."

I sighed, sitting Steven on some hay, "She asked me to fuse with her."

"What!?" Steven rolled over in his sleep, so Peridot lowered her voice, "I didn't think that she would be even close to ready for that."

"Neither did I," My eyes drifted back to the sleeping gem, "But she asked me to. And I said no."

That surprised Peridot even more, "You said no? But you talked about her the entire time we were building the drill. Aren't you obsessed with her or something?"

"No!" It was my turn to lower my voice, "I'm not obsessed with her. I... I love her."

"You love her?" Peridot had wide eyes that drifted behind me, then back to my face.

I rubbed my neck, looking down, "Yeah. I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I'll do something wrong. She's been through so much. I don't want to pile myself onto her pile of traumatic experiences."

"I just want to make her happy."

I turned around to pick up Steven, when I met her eyes, "Lapis..."

I gathered the human boy in my arms, and ran. I made my way to the nearest warp, sending Steven home.

I, however, climbed up the nearest tree.

"(Y/N)!" Her voice echoed out across the lightly wooded area, "(Y/N) come back!"

To say the least, I was scared of what would happen next. She heard my confession. I have no idea how long she had truly been awake. The entire thing made my face fill with color.

Did Peridot lie when she said Lapis was asleep? Was it just that Lapis was pretending to sleep? I have no idea.

I could hear Pumpkin trying to sniff me out, "(Y/N), I can see your feet sticking out of that tree."

Crap.

I dropped down, "Heeeeyyy~ How you doing Lapis?"

Cue the homosexual fingerguns, "How's life treating you?"

"(Y/N)."

"Yeeeessss?"

"Don't hide from me."

We stood there, eyes locked.

"I won't."

She smiled, "Good."

"I'm sorry. I was just afraid of hurting-"

She kissed me.

The initial shock dissipated in an instant. I curled into her, her hands on my face. I placed my arms around her waist. I felt myself melt into the slightly taller figure. She drifted her hands back around my neck.

After what felt like hours, we broke free.

"Lapis..."

"I love you too. I wanted to fuse with you because I know you only mean the best for me. You want me to be happy," she wiped a tear from my cheek, "I want you to be happy."

"We can fuse," I cleared my face, "If you still want to."

We kissed again. This time, I'm being literal when I say I melted into her.

I ran my hands over my form. I placed my hand on the two gems that formed my being. Then I made my way to my nose.

She's not here.

It's just the two of us.

We are okay.
