Chapter Text
Y/n didn't leave the hospital until they released Steven 2 days later. There was always at least 1 of the alien men, who she learned called them selves the Crystal Gems, in the hospital as well. They were constantly checking on her and bringing her things like food, clothing, and stuff for Steven. They also managed all the funeral arrangements for Greg, and Richard but they lacked a body for that one, while Y/n grieved the loss of the last of her immediate family.
They had Greg cremated and bought two urns and put half his ashes in each so it looked like both had been cremated. Then they set up chairs and tables with pictures on them on the beach so people come and remember them while their ashes were scattered. Y/n surprised to see that nearly the entire town of Beach City showed up.
They all had such nice things to say about them it made Y/n start crying for the umpteenth time. Y/n it was her turn she was in such hysterics that she couldn't speak and just sobbed until she escorted away from the front. She was surprised she was actually able to hold herself enough together to scatter the ashes into the ocean at the end.
Long after the guests had left she in crystal gems stayed on the beach staring at the waves in silence until Steven started crying. "He's probably hungry or cold. We should go inside.", Pearl, the blonde omega of the crystal gems said.
Y/n nodded and expected them to lead her into town but instead the started walking down the beach to a hand shaped rock with a house attached to it. There was a fence around it with a no trespassing sign but they opened the gate and walked right in. The house was unlocked and they lead her into a living area completely set up for a baby.
Pearl prepared a bottle for Steven while everyone else sat down. Garnet, the taller alpha, cleared his throat. "Now would be good time for us to explain things more thoroughly. It all started over 5000 years ago...", he said and went on to explain the gem war and what they were. He ended it by saying, "Recently there has been activity from other gems both corrupted ones and non-corrupted. We believe that Steven maybe in danger because of this so we think it's best you to stay near us and live here."
Y/n was thrown into turmoil. She didn't want to leave her life and move to Beach City or for Steven to be near any of this stuff but she really didn't have a choice because it could turn into a matter of life or death. "Okay. I'll have to see if I can find a university with my major nearby.", she said.
