Chapter 1: Ruby Rose
Ahh, Friday, truly the greatest of days for students, and indeed, for people in general. Like any other Friday at Beacon Academy, Jaune Arc was walking down one of Beacon's labyrinthine hallways after he got out of Leadership 101, which was an extra class at the end of the week for team leaders.
Jaune always liked this class, unlike some of the other team leaders, as this particular class was one of the few that came naturally to him. Leadership 101 was one of his best subjects, the opposite of combat class, though his friends agreed that he'd started to do much better in combat as of late. Luckily, since this was the last class of the day for him, Jaune was now free to enjoy the weekend.
Well, he was free to enjoy it, as soon as he figured out what it was that he wanted to do, and as long as it didn't cut into that night's training session with Pyrrha. Jaune absentmindedly whistled a tune as he continued his trek towards his team's dorm room.
Suddenly, Jaune heard what sounded like someone running incredibly fast down the hallway and this person was heading directly towards him. From the speed at which this person was approaching, Jaune thought he had a very good idea as to who it was. The only one who ran that fast down Beacon's halls was none other than one of his best friends at Beacon: Ruby Rose.
Jaune stepped against the wall of the corridor to avoid being toppled over by Ruby the human rocket. Ruby barreled at breakneck speed towards Jaune, and with a massive burst of rose petals, stopped in front of Jaune and slammed up against him, giving Jaune a kabedon.
Jaune, having been made to read Mistralian comics aimed at girls with his seven sisters, knew exactly what Ruby was trying to accomplish. Unfortunately for Ruby, Jaune was a few heads taller than her, and kabedons worked best with someone of either the same height or taller than the one being kabedon'd. Ruby's height didn't really lend itself to being the one doing the kabedon, but as typical of her, it didn't stop her from doing her best at whatever she tried.
Jaune looked down at Ruby with a fond smile, noticing how adorable Ruby looked as she tried to maintain her hold on the situation. She looked so cute trying to do the kabedon, with her face practically buried in Jaune's uniform torso. Ruby then spoke some muffled sentences into Jaune's shirt, making Jaune laugh a little.
Ruby then pulled her head back a small amount, and looked up at Jaune, an absolutely endearing pout on her face, her cheeks puffed out with indignation. "Did you just laugh at me Jaune?" Ruby asked angrily. "I'm sorry Ruby, I couldn't help it." Jaune replied, attempting to pacify the upset reaper.
"How can you laugh at me while I'm doing this to you? Blake's comics said this was a great way to get someone to pay attention to you!" Ruby cried out. "I'm sorry, it's just you looked so cute doing it. I mean, you're already cute, but it's hard to get the effect you're going for with our height difference." Jaune raised his hands in surrender.
Ruby blushed at being called cute, then shook her head to clear her thoughts. "You calling me cute doesn't make any difference…even if it makes me a little happy that you said that…." Ruby began, and then trailed off, the last statement a whisper. "Anyway Rubes, why did you need to get my attention? We were just in Leadership 101 a few minutes ago." Jaune tried to get Ruby back on track. This was often a monumental task, as Ruby was very distractible, though not quite to the same degree that Nora was. May the Brothers have mercy on Ren, Jaune thought.
"Oh! Right! Jaune, Camp Camp's newest issue came out today!" Ruby squealed with excitement. "No way! It's been a few months since the last issue!" Jaune replied. "Yeah, I can't wait to see what those crazy kids are going to get up to this time!" Ruby exclaimed.
Ruby then began to shyly look askance at Jaune. "Sooo, since it's the weekend now that Leadership 101 is over, I was wondering….." Ruby trailed off nervously. "Wondering?" Jaune asked curiously.
Ruby then let out a rush of words, "Iwaswonderingifyou'dliketogotoValeandgettheissuewithme." Jaune barely managed to discern anything from Ruby's swift barrage of words. "Hold on, can you say that again, but slower this time Rubes. Super hearing isn't in my skill set you know." Jaune requested. Ruby took a deep and calming breath.
"I was wondering if you'd like to go to Vale and get the new Camp Camp issue with me." Ruby stated, more slowly this time, though she was still a tad bit hesitant from nerves. Jaune looked at Ruby's expectant yet hesitant look, and decided on his response. "Of course, I'll go with you to Vale to get the issue. I'd love to go!" Jaune said with a smile.
Ruby's eyes lit up like silver-colored variants of the gemstones she was named after, a positively gigantic smile taking over her face. "You will? This is gonna be awesome!" Ruby shouted with glee, throwing up her hands in victory.
Ruby then looked up at Jaune expectantly, "And when we get back from Vale, can we read it together?" Jaune couldn't help but accept Ruby's request, "Of course we can Rubes. I can hardly think of a better way to spend an afternoon than with one of my very best friends!"
Ruby blushed, and then took hold of Jaune's hand and started to drag him along with her surprisingly impressive strength, though she did struggle a little bit more than she used to, since Jaune's muscle mass had been steadily increasing over the last while. Jaune couldn't help but smile at Ruby's excitement, as his own eagerness began to exponentially rise as well. The two of them were both now looking forward to a fun afternoon together, and the two hunter trainees were glad that Ruby had decided to kabedon Jaune that day.
AN: Welcome to the start of a new fic! Basically, I was inspired to make this fic by two pictures, one by KegiSpringfield on Deviantart that shows Ruby trying to kabedon Jaune, and the other one is a short comic of Yang doing a kabedon on Jaune, which was made by Sonocomics on Tumblr. I highly recommend going and supporting these two great artists. Anyways, these pictures gave me the idea that Jaune would likely be the one to be on the receiving end of a kabedon, and that there was potential for a bunch of funny or interesting scenarios involving Jaune being kabedon'd by different characters from RWBY. These will be a bunch of different oneshots featuring Jaune and one (or in some cases, more) other character(s) who will kabedon Jaune in that chapter. These scenarios will almost always be humorous in some fashion, and could either be romantic or friendship-based in nature, with a smaller number of them being of other intentions. Male and female RWBY characters will kabedon Jaune, with gender not playing any real specific role in whether their oneshot will be romantic or friendship based. I'm gonna try and shoot for as many oneshots as there are characters in RWBY. If I decide to, or get inspiration, I may continue specific oneshots, but I will make no specific promises. I enjoyed writing this, and I hope you enjoyed reading this first oneshot! Keep your eyes peeled for future chapers! -Mikainox
