Le Magic Taco: I seriously thought her crush would be Rose. It would have been a lot more fitting than Peridot, plus Pearl is already obsessed with rose in the show.

I know and that was my first idea but I changed it, so now I think Pearl and Rose will be ex's?, anyway, thank you for commenting.

StringDman: I Like This So Far. My only Gripe Was How You Switched Between General View To Pearl's POV Without Really Stating It, But Other Than That, This Is Really Good. Awaiting Your Next Update.(:

OMG, thank you so much to me that my first coment was positive, I'm really sorry about the POV switching, I will try to refrain from doing so in the future, but THANKS!

"Professor Peridot?, What!, I knew it!" Amy screamed.

"Wow, really, I mean she is hot and all, but why?" Jasper questioned while smirking.

"Umm, Amy, please don't tell anyone, if you do my life will be over, I'll have to go into hiding, I'll have to, I'll have to…uh, just please don't tell anyone," Pearl begged.

Garnet, who during this whole event had remained silent suddenly spoke up, "Pearl, calm down we won't tell anyone, we promise."

"Promise?"

"We promise."

"Thank you, you really are true friends, Pearl said, I think I'm going to go home and think."

"See ya!" Amy and Jasper shouted while Garnet just waved.

[Pearl's POV, in her dorm room]

Why did I tell them, I internally shrieked as I fell face-first onto my bed and sobbed. Professor Peridot will never notice me and then I'll go into depression and…and, oh no, my life is ruinnnned…, wait, all I have to do is make a plan.

(A few minutes later)

entering class, flash teacher a charming smile

she asks someone to do equation on the board raise your hand

the end of the class ask if she can give you private lessons on algebra

private lesson talk about subject and why it is your favorite class ever

This should hopefully work, let me try this tomorrow, I think aloud, I glanced outside and saw that it was already dark. That's strange, Garnet and Amy are usually here by now, oh, they're probably still at the Big Donut getting hyper on coffee, well anyway, I should go to sleep so I'm ready for algebra tomorrow.

(The next day, almost algebra class, [Pearl's POV]

Pearl cautiously stuck her head through the doorframe and withdrew quickly, professor Peridot was sitting quietly in front of her desk reading. This is it, Pearl thought, maybe I should ask her for coaching now, or no, even better I'll not answer any questions that she asks and then she'll think I'm stupid.

"Riinnngg!"

This was it, the moment had arrived, she, Pearl was now going to act dumb, okay Pearl, charming smile in…three…two…one. Pearl flashed professor Peridot a big smile as the class filed into their respective seats, to her utmost delight, professor Peridot gave her a small one in back! As the lesson began her teacher began by handing out yesterdays homework, complimenting those who did well and showing the ones that did not how to correct their errors.

When she passed by Pearl's desk, she paused and announced," Pearl has managed to complete every single piece of work assigned to her, but not only that, she has managed to not make a single mistake so far, this is what you all can become, with a little effort you can all become model students."

Pearl blushed and murmured," It is nothing really," as her friends clapped

"Anyway, shall we continue with algebra?" her professor asked, saving her from dying of embarrassment.

As the end of the class drew near Pearl was beginning to feel nervous, professor Peridot still had not asked her a single question. Just when she was beginning to lose hope professor Peridot questioned," Okay, if x+363459=798253, then what is x?" When no one raised their hand her gaze fell on Pearl.

"Pearl do you know what the answer is?"

"Umm, no ma'am I'm afraid I don't," Pearl answered.

"Hmm, very well, her professor said, but she looked somewhat disappointed, Class dismissed early, now you all can be the first in line for the school cafeteria, so you won't have to wait all day." There were several cries of, "yes!", or "thank you, professor!"

Okay Pearl, it's now or never, ask Peridot for private coaching, Pearl mentally reminded herself.

"Umm, professor Peridot, I was wondering if you could give me private coaching for algebra," Pearl asked.

"But Pearl, why ever would you need it?, you are already top of the class," her teacher questioned.

"I know, it's just that I couldn't answer that question that you asked me, and then I realized that I can do so much better than right now," Pearl replied, rapidly thinking of excuses of why she needed coaching.

"Well I don't see why not, a little extra practice always comes in handy, do you have time on Tuesday's?"

"Yes!"

"Alright, meet me in this classroom at 6:00 pm, okay?"

"OK!, bye, I need to go to the cafeteria now, otherwise Jasper will eat all the food!"

Professor laughed softly at that joke and then said, okay, run along then, good afternoon, and with that she departed, leaving Pearl there, standing stock still, mouth hanging open, she was going to have extra coaching for algebra, but not only that, with professor Peridot!

Well I hope you enjoyed that chapter, it took a bit longer to write, but it was worth it, as usual follow, fav and review!, thanks.
