Why did he have to call me now?

Blue was in trial, trying to defend Steven.

"As I was saying, Rose Quartz wouldn't be able to get close to Pink Diamond's palanquin without attracting attention from the other gems near it-" Blue Zircon explained before being cut off by a ringing.

Yellow and Blue Diamond looked down at Blue Zircon with one eyebrow raised. One of Blue Zircon's holograms rang like a phone. Zircon blushed, and looked at the hologram. It had her boyfriends name on it. Red Citrine.

"E-Excuse m-me, my diamonds, I have things to do." Blue Zircon said before taking the hologram and running off.

"Hmm, have a hologram ring during the trial, how embarrassing...!" Green Zircon said with a smug look on her face.

meanwhile, outside of the room where the trial was held, Blue Zircon answered the phone.

"Hello?" Zircon asked.

"Z-Zircon, help, the diamonds... t-they-" Red Citrine explained in a panic before the call ended abruptly.

Blue Zircon hung up the phone, and covered her mouth in utter shock and disbelief. She then went back to the trial in tears.

Blue Diamond was quick to notice the tears running down Blue Zircon's face.

"Dear, are you alright?" Blue Diamond asked.

Everyone looked over at Blue Zircon.

"I-I'm fine..." Blue Zircon said before covering her face with her hands.

"I think we need a break." Blue Diamond said while getting up.

"Fine, this trial is called to recess!" Yellow Diamond said whilst clapping her hands.
