This is super short, but I honestly can’t find it in me to write any more on it.
“So, uh, you’re probably wondered why we asked to meet you guys here.” Pearl nodded quickly, wanting to know immediately why he had asked them to meet. Connie seemed nervous, and she was terrified herself. What could be so important that he would call all of them here, with Connie? Not that she wasn’t around normally, it was just odd for him to call a meeting like this.
“Well… I’m pregnant.” The world seemed to stop. Was she being serious? She felt herself shaking with fear, and staring at the human before her. They were going to have a baby? Steven was going to be a dad? But he was still so young, and it didn’t seem right for them to be having a baby already. Was she going to lose him too? No, she couldn’t lose the little piece of Rose she had left, no.
“Wh-what?” Amethyst squeaked before she could get a word out, and a hand covered her mouth as she looked to the floor. They hadn’t even been together that long, and they were going to have a baby. It didn’t seem right. They were still so young, with such a bright future ahead of the both of them. Together, or not. “You’re leaving us, Steven?”
“What?” He seemed confused, and took a step back as if afraid of them. She hated that, but her mind was focusing more on the bombshell they had just dropped on them than the fact that he could possibly be afraid of them, even after all these years.

“Don’t you care about what you’re doing?” she heard herself ask, and Steven drew back in shock.
“What? Guys, it’s not what you think, I mean–”
“He’s keeping his gem.” Connie’s voice was final, and she glanced to him. She seemed to withdraw for a moment, like the nervous girl they had first met all those years ago, before she stood proud of herself. “It’s… It’s just going to be a normal pregnancy. Like any other human’s. I mean, I’m assuming so, but he’s not going to be leaving us any time soon.”
She was so relieved, she felt light headed. Garnet was smirking beside her, and Amethyst seemed to relax. She slumped back against the couch, putting a hand to her head in relief. He wasn’t leaving them like Rose had, he was going to stay here, and they were going to have a- hopefully- normal human baby. She was flooded with pride at her little boy. “Oh, thank god…”
