A soft sigh of contentment thrums through Pearl's throat, and though her eyelids droop, she doesn't let her eyes close yet. She wants to watch Garnet's face for a little longer -- how pretty and dark her eyelashes are without her sunglasses to obscure them, how full and soft her lips are, how lovely she looks when she's completely at peace. Completely at peace with her.
And all Pearl can think about is how lucky she is to have her, so gentle and understanding and patient. No, better -- Garnet isn't just willing to wait for her, she wants to. And she thinks it will never fail to amaze her, that there's someone in this world who could possibly care for her this much. Who returns her feelings in full.
"I'm really glad I fell for you," she blurts without thinking, only for her eyes double in size the next second as her own words register.
"That--" Pearl sputters, face feeling for all intents and purposes like it's been set on fire, "that seemed like a better thing to say before I said it."
