Traveling Through the Dark
Chapter 1
To see Weiss getting rejected was something seen once in a blue moon. No One rejects Weiss Schnee. She always got her way. Seeing Weiss actually livid about the rejection? That was a sight to see.
Weiss was currently at a party with her best friend Blake Belladonna. Weiss was very well known at these types of parties, after all she was dubbed as a billionaire playboy that can kill with a kiss. Usually Blake didn't attend these parties with Weiss, but she said there was someone she was meeting with at this party. Which was rather strange to Weiss, Blake didn't seem like the one for social gatherings.
2 hours earlier.
"Alright lets get this party started," Weiss announced as she stepped out of the limo. Weiss Schnee heiress to the Schnee law firm, biggest firm in all of Remnant. " So…who's this person you're meeting with if they were able to get you out to this party, and on a weekday no less."
"Oh? Um, just someone," Blake explained in a tone that said for the topic to end as the two were heading to the venue. As the two were entering the party any onlookers could easily see that the pair just demanded attention. Weiss wore an immaculate white suit with a sky blue vest paired with just as perfect white dress shoes. Blake went for a midnight black dress paired with black heels. Attention was what they got, all eyes went their way was they walked in.
"Someone special?" Weiss suggested as they headed to the bar. At the bar Weiss got a tequila and sat down.
"As if you would know what special meant."
"Hey, I certainly do know for a matter of fact," Weiss said with a smug look.
"Bringing girls home to your condo every other day certainly doesn't suggest it unless you consider them 'special'." Blake said with a triumphant smile while Weiss pouted. Weiss wasn't always like this not until the death of her mother two years ago, and Blake will always take up the chance to show her disapproval. "Well, i'll go look for that someone while you go do what you do here." Blake spoke before she got up and drifted into the crowd.
Weiss sighed and looked around. Celebrities, actors, and models alike attended the party. Just another night to lose myself in. Lets see which girl it is tonight. Hmm how about you. Weiss got up after finishing her tequila and headed towards a brunette with long hair and dressed up in a gold sparkling dress. Cheesy pickup line? Check. Minty breath? Check.
"Hi. I'm not a photographer, but I can picture you and I together," Weiss breathed out as she captured her eyes with a look that made the lady weak in the knees. Too easy. The girl blushed as she stared at Weiss. " The name's Weiss Schnee," Weiss stated at she shook her hands.
" U-uh h-hello. I'm Tiffany," the girl-Tiffany stuttered. Then it clicked in Weiss' head.
"As in Tiffany from the movie Unbreakable? I loved you in that movie. The way you portrayed Natalie genuis." Now to hook her in and go for the kill.
"T-thanks."
"How about we go somewhere a little more private?" Weiss said in her sultry voice. Tiffany's face became red as a tomato and said she needed to go to the bathroom for a second. Tch. To nervous for my taste. Lets look for someone else. Weiss then saw a girl drinking alone at the bar in a red cashmere sweater, white collared shirt, and black slacks. With her short red-tipped hair and toned body, she was Weiss' perfect type. This should work nicely. Walking up to the bar Weiss ordered two strawberry cocktails.
"What's a pretty girl like you doing here drinking here all alone?" Weiss said as she offered up one of the strawberry cocktails.
"Thanks, my sister forced me to come here to as she said 'loosen up'. Hey strawberries my favorite how did you know?"
"Lets say intuition," as Weiss gave her one of her billion dollar smiles. "I'm Weiss Schnee by the way."
"Weiss. Weiss. You have a pretty name Weiss, I'm Ruby Rose," Ruby spoke flashing Weiss an innocent smile, a smile that made Weiss' heart beat a little faster and bringing Weiss to a slight daze. Get it together Weiss, this has never happened before so why now?
"So Ruby what you do for a living?"
"I'm a school nurse at Signal High, what about you?"
"I'm a senior partner at the Schnee law firm. Best closer in all of Remnant" Weiss conversed easily with Ruby and had one of the best conversations with another girl she planned to hook up with in years. Beautiful smile that I could stare at for ages, intelligent, well-cultured, and my type. I can't wait to see her in my bed. Weiss got up and stood closer to Ruby and whispered into her ear, " Lets ditch this party and head back to my place." Ruby then pushed Weiss slightly as she grabbed her shoulder.
" I'd love to Weiss, but I should probably head out. Come visit me at Signal High sometime soon. I would love to talk to you again friend." Ruby then stood up from the bar and said goodbye to Weiss who had a blank stare and turned around and left the party as she was texting someone on her scroll.
Did she just say friend. The accursed word seemed amplified in Weiss' head from the way Ruby said it. D-d-did I just get rejected? And why is it bothering me so much when I could just find another girl.
Friend…
Friends?!
