Pearl did her best to keep her gaze leveled at the carwash ahead of them, rather than on the giant cliffside, on which the other side she tried her best not to think about. Pearl and Steven walked through the deserted streets, thankfully not running into anyone. The sun had gone all the way down by the time they reached town. Sparing only a glance at the window into the front office (with the person on the other side sparing a long look back), Pearl put a hand on Steven’s back and led him towards the sidewalk and bus stop. They’d have to hurry if they wanted to make it to the last bus to town for the night.
The sun was already hanging low in the sky. “If your pack gets too heavy for you, let me know and I can carry it.” Let’s get going.” She opened the motel room’s door and Steven walked out. Pearl smiled and nodded, “If you say so, my Steven. He grinned broadly at Pearl, delighted that she was wearing the faded blue sundress that Steven and his dad had gotten her. “Yeah, I’m ready, Pearl.” Steven straightened his shirt and exited the bathroom. He breathed onto the sleeve of his jacket and rubbed it, giving it a slight sheen.
He smiled at his reflection, who smiled back, and pulled down the neck of his shirt, revealing his blue, diamond shaped gem. “One last thing,” Steven said to himself as he walked over to the sink and looked at himself in the mirror. Steven dressed, then grabbed a pair of socks out of his backpack and put them on, followed by his sturdy pair of walking shoes. After, he took the clothes Pearl had laid by the sink, a pair of jeans, a simple black shirt emblazoned with a bright yellow star, and his dark blue hoodie. That done, he began undressing, folding his sleep clothes and putting them into his cheeseburger backpack, which hung on a hook on the back to the door. I am, Pearl.” Steven quickly trotted off to the bathroom, closing the door behind him.įirst thing first, he got onto the toilet and relieved his near-full bladder. “Dad and I picked that dress out especially for you. “Pleeease, Pearl?” Steven pleaded, clasping his hands together and putting on his sweetest possible face. I don’t really like the feeling of clothes…” “Okay, but are you going wear your dress?” Steven asked. “I've already laid out your clothes in the bathroom, my Steven,” Pearl said. Still, Pearl’s tendency to disregard other people had gotten them in trouble before. After the day they had, he couldn’t really argue that he appreciated the sleep. Your growing human body requires eight hours of sleep.” “Why didn’t you wake me? We could have left before now.” Steven threw the covers off of him as he hopped off the bed, straightening his sleep shirt. “The person at the motel office has already come by once to try and force us to leave.” “You need to get ready quickly, my Steven,” Pearl said. He sat up and Pearl stood up, giving him his space. “Evening, Pearl,” Steven smiled sleepily as he stretched, shaking the remnants of sleep off of him. He opened his eyes and saw Pearl leaning over him, her eyes peaking just past her blue bangs.
