Jasper knew she was in trouble the minute Pearl made an appearance, she could already feel the urge to kiss and hug the woman filling her. Looking at her stations of food she grumbled slightly, she couldn’t abandon them now; it risked the food burning depending on how ling she got distracted by her love. Peridot rolled her eyes as she started on even more pancakes, having decided that they didn’t have enough to feed the bottom less pit of a family.<br/><br/>Turning to face Pearl the young woman looked Pearl over, instantly noticing the glint of dominance in Pearls eyes before turning to look at Jasper a d scoff. “So you stand seven feet tall and this slender woman can make you behave? If I had known that she was your type I would have introduced you to a few of my friends” turning back to Pearl she gave the slender woman a awkward smile. “Peridot or Peri is fine. I only require my clients to be professional when talking to me” Peri explained as turned her focus back to the pancakes.<br/><br/>Jasper pouted slightly as she looked at Pearl with giant puppy dog eyes “But.. The eating contest is tradition! It happens every year and I’ve only lost one! Not letting me even compete means Amethyst is going to win by default. Peru isn’t going to stop her from playing” it was entirely unfair, Jasper had only lost once and that was because she had been pregnant with Mala at the time and her morning sickness had hit like a ton of bricks at the wrong time.<br/><br/>Peridot chuckled as she handed Jasper enough full plate of pancakes and got down from her stool, folding up and moving to out it away. “That’s because if I don’t let her compete she starts drinking sooner and the lack of food in her stomach lets her get drunk faster. I’m saving everyone awkward moments”<br/><br/>“You’re saving yourself from ending up in a closet with your hands tied to the bar and your pants pulled down” Jasper explained as she finished her eggs and turned off the grill, focusing on the bacon and sausages.<br/><br/>“That happened one time!”<br/><br/>“An you’ve never lived it down. Even though it’s been so many years” Jasper smirked as she set the sausages into the buffet tray. Peridot just glared at the woman and looked at Pearl, a smirk appearing on her face as she turned back to Jasper. “Jasper is a fabulous singing when she gets drunk, it’s the only time she’ll sing for anyone”<br/><br/>The spatula that was in Jasper hand was snapped in half with in and instant as a blush stained Jaspers cheeks and she glared at Peridot. “I’m going to end you twerp, lets recall the fact that I can eat you alive” growling as she watched the woman close, daring her to say anything.  Jasper only sang drunk because it was the only time she could find the confidence.<br/><br/>Peridot chuckles as she made her way around the counter “Amethyst is bringing the karaoke machine, she wants to give Pearl a show.” Jasper knew she was truly doomed now, Amethyst would egg her on until she got her sister drunk and then the family would enjoy a true show. Sighing softly Jasper was about to reply when a knock came from the door, muttering under her breath Jasper made her was to the door. Answering she was greeted by a good chunk of her family.<br/>Her older sister Ruby, who stood a good five foot six with black afro like hair dressed in a causal dress shirt and black slacks. Sapphire; Ruby's wife who stood the same height dressed in a form fitting silk blue dress with long blonde hair. Their daughter who stood taller then both her parents already at the young age of thirteen, bright blue eyes like her mother and a large afro like her would be father. Behind them stood Jaspers adoptive mother Blue, she was a tall woman standing just under six feet tall.<br/><br/>Smiling Jasper stepped out of the way welcoming everyone inside, Ruby chuckling as she punched Jasper in the shoulder cause Jasper to laughed and punch her back. They always seemed to rough house, Ruby always wanting to prove to Jasper that just because she was bigger didn’t mean a single thing. Hugging Sapphire and giving Garnet a fist bump before pointing at Mala.<br/><br/>The two cousins tackling each other before Mala dragged Garnet off to the training room. Excited to show her cousin everything she’d been learning over the last few months, Jasper making sure to grab Mala and direct her to her grandmother before she forgot.<br/><br/>Blue smiled as she knelt down and swept her youngest grand daughter up in a tight hug. Smiling as she covered Mala's face in kisses. “Look at home much you’ve grown! You’re truly starting to look like you’re mother. A wild mane of hair and build like a deep rooted tree, next thing you’ll be taller then her and able to pick her up” Blue teased as she set Mala down, the ten year old smiled as she puffed out her chest, proud that she was rivaling her mother.<br/><br/>Once Mala tool off running Jasper moved forward and hugged Blue with one arm, the woman smiled as she moved deeper Into the apartment as Jasper closed the door. “She’s growing just like you Jasper. Next time I see her she’ll have grown twice her size and be standing eye to eye with you. Jasper chuckled and shook her head, she truly doubted her daughter was going to get her height. Mala was slender and wiry in way Jasper had never been.<br/>“She wont even get close, I will always be the tallest. Even if it drives mother insane that I beat her by one inch. Where is she by the way? Is she going to cancel last minute?” it was a common thing for her mother to do, Blue shook her head “She dropped me off at your sisters since she needed to run home and grab the pies, she’ll be arriving around the time amethyst gets her. If you bothered to pay attention to the group chat on your cell phone. By the way if you have a girlfriend now you better add her so we can get her input on your birthday gifts, plus it would be nice to ask her questions directly about future plans instead of having to go through you. It’s hard enough getting an answer out of you. An another tho-“ Jasper moved quickly covering her mother’s mouth as she let out a puff of air blowing her bangs out of her face.<br/><br/>“I haven’t told her about the family group chat, I wanted her to meet everyone first before throwing her into that crazy conversation. An I’m glad mom isn’t canceling on us, an I haven’t looked at my phone because I was taking care of breakfast. Now come on, come meet my girlfriend and play a hundred and ten questions with her” Jasper grunted as she lead Blue into the kitchen, standing beside Pearl as she smiled “Ma, This is Pearl. Pearl this is my mother Blue Diamond. The sweeter half of my parents”<br/><br/>Blue smiled as she shook Pearls hand “Such a sweet girl, You did well Jasper how did you ever manage to catch  the interest of such a fine woman.” Even though Pearl had her bed head and was still in her pjs Blue could easily tell from the way Pearl held herself she was much more elegant then her brutish daughter.
