Peridot continued to watch Pearl as she went about her day. Initially, Peridot was skeptical that her collar was working, but as the day wore on, she began to notice changes in both Pearls appearance and personality.
Firstly, Pearl had been a lot more friendly to her than normal. Previously, Pearl had always been keen to get Peridot to help her around the house if she had ‘nothing better to do,’ but now it seemed that Pearl was looking to avoid having Peridot do extra work. Furthermore, during the day, Peridot had accidentally knocked over a glass. While Pearl would have normally made Peridot clean it up (in an unpleasant manner no less), Pearl had instead cheerfully insisted that she would clean it up.
Peridot had also began to notice changes in Pearl's form. Pearl's normally flat chest had sprouted a pair of small A-cups, while her rear seemed to stick out slightly more. Peridot had tried to discern whether or not Pearl was getting any taller, but hadn’t been able to notice any difference, not that it was easy to tell.
Peridot decided to test Pearl's feelings towards her, and quickly scurried off to get some flowers from out of the greenhouse.
“Oh there you are!” Pearl exclaimed as she returned.
Peridot then handed the flowers to her, and commented: “You look quite… sexy today.” Peridot had made sure to use ‘sexy,’ as it was not a word Pearl normally liked to hear.
To Peridots intrigue, Pearl graciously accepted the flowers, blushing at the compliment. “Awww, you don’t have to be so kind.” She replied, before leaning down to kiss Peridot on the gem. Peridot blushed, she didn’t expect that kind of reaction. In the event, Peridot simply decided to bide her time. She was eager to see how far Pearls transformation would go.

Later, as the sun was setting, Pearl had managed to finish tidying up the house. Peridot watched with intrigue, still taking notes about Pearls changes.
As Pearl put her broom away in her gem, she began to walk over to where Peridot was seated. “Uhh… Peridot?”
“Do you need something?” Peridot asked kindly.
“Well, I know about you and Lapis…” She said referring to the two’s recent break up. “…And I was wondering if you’d maybe like to sleep with me, just for the night?”
Peridot was taken aback by the question. Pearl, seeing this, floundered in an attempt to recover. “IF YOU WANT! Of course! It’s up to you! Hehe…”
Peridot thought for a moment. This was incredibly forward of Pearl. Peridot logically knew that it was in her best interest to accept the offer, but she was just too paralyzed by her shock to say anything.
“Uhh… sure, I’d love to.” She finally managed to say.
Pearl perked up at the response. “I’ll go get the bed ready!” She said gleefully. “Come up as soon you can!”
Soon, Peridot followed Pearl up to the bedroom, where Pearl had wrapped herself deep in the covers. Peridot hopped in with her, before snuggling up against Pearls modest curves. The good thing about being so small, Peridot thought, is that everyone else seems so big. While this was normally a bad thing (She hated being smaller than everyone), it gave her somewhat of a rosy illusion that Pearl was a giant. If only Pearl had grown in size, Peridot thought.
Unbeknownst to her though, Pearl was growing larger, and by the next morning, she…
