Summary: Steven is always getting into things that left him with bruises. However none of those things ever left bruises down his neck...

(Their teenagers here)

(Steven's pov)

I tried my best to ignore Pearl who was starring at me like I just tried one of Amethyst weird sandwiches. But she had been doing it since I came into the kitchen and it was getting kind of annoying.

At first I thought it was because she hadn't seen me since yesterday morning, the gems went on some mission by the volcanos and it was recombined that I stayed home all day with Connie. But that doesn't explain why Pearl's starring at me.

"Sup, Pearl?" Her eyes met mine as I took a bite of cereal.

"Steven where did you attain those bruises on the side of your neck?" I dropped my spoon and quickly cover the marks.

Okay so when Connie came over we may have been necking last night before she left so, a little under a hour. Since my healing abilities made it impossible for her to get any hickeys, we never had to worry about her going home and trying to hide them. Though I forgot last night to put some spit on my own neck so that if Connie left any, they wouldn't be there anymore.

"Steven?" Pearl asked she looked worried.

"It's nothing Pearl, just rolled down the hill yesterday. Got a few bumps and bruises I suppose. I'll go heal them now. I jumped up and ran to the the bathroom ignoring Pearl who was calling me back to finish my breakfast. I licked my fingers and rubbed it over the quarter sized, perfectly even, bruise Connie left last night.

I frowned as Steven ignored me when I tried to call him back. I swear Amethyst is teaching him bad habits. But still the bruises on his neck worry me. He hasn't gone on a mission recently and while he isn't the most graceful boy it still would be quite difficult for him to get bruising on his neck. Maybe I should monitor him just to make sure he's not getting into anything to dangerous.
