A/N: Alright, here's a new fic I thought of when reading one that is similar, it's called Safe But Harmed. So, here's my take on that type of situation.

WARNING: THERE WILL BE SMUT IN LATER CHAPTERS, LESBIAN RELATIONSHIPS, AN ABUSIVE FATHER, SELF- HARM, DEATH IS MENTIONED, SUICIDE IS ALSO MENTIONED BUT NEVER ACTUALLY COMPLETED.

Okay, on that depressing note, here we go!

P.S. this whole fic will alternate between Ruby's and Weiss's P.O.V.

RUBY P.O.V.

'You're worthless.' This is the third time today I've had that thought and it's only 6 o'clock in the morning.

'Just go get some food and go to school,' I tell myself, 'if I'm lucky father won't be up yet.'
I go into the dining room and hear, "what the fuck have you been doing?"

'Damn it!'

"You know what? I don't care."

"Are you going to work today?" I ask.

"Why the fuck would you care? Get your ass off to school," he responds, "and if I find blood in the carpet, Imma beat your ass!"

'You couldn't find blood if it was running from your arm! Plus, I don't cut anymore, it gives the bullies more ammo.'

I head off to school after eating some cereal. As soon as I get there, the bullies start in.

"Hey bitch! You got our cash?" Cardin starts.

"No."

"Why not?"

"I don't have any money."

"Steal some from your father."

"He spends it all on booze."

"Have your whore of a sister to give you some."

At this point Yang's death is so fresh I just start crying.

Suddenly a female voice picks up, "leave her the fuck alone you assholes!" the voice yells, "her sister just died a month ago! Fuck off!"

Cardin and his lackeys run off to go torture somebody else.

"Who are you?" I ask the girl.

"My name is Weiss Schnee."

"Oh, did you tell them to leave so you could pick on me yourself?"

"No, of course not Ruby. My little brother Shitley would, but not me. I have no tolerance for bullies as I am bullied myself."

"You? But you're rich!"

"I'm also gay."

"Oh, me too," I respond, "also, can I just say, I hate your brother!"

"Me too, why do you hate him?"

"He killed my sister."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I heard he killed somebody and her girlfriend while on a drunk joyride. I didn't know it was you sister," she pauses, "he is actually serving a life sentence due to admitting to running into her car on purpose, he is very homophobic."

"Well, we could be friends? It could help make up for your brother murdering my sister."

"I don't think I could ever repay you for what he did, but, I do need a friend."

"Alright then, Weiss, what's your first class?"

"History with professor Port."

"I'm going there too."

Me and my new friend head to Port's class walking side-by-side. Several people get the wrong idea and think we're dating so, of course, we get called faggots. We shrug it off and keep walking.

'Who cares if people think we're dating? I think she's nice and kinda cute.' Then it hits me, 'holy shit I have a crush on this girl I just met!'

"Here we are," she says.

We head inside the class and take a seat, I sit in my normal spot in the back and Weiss sits next to me.

'Weiss Schnee just sat next to me!'

"Hey," she says.

"Hi."

I make it through the rest of the day and find out that Weiss is in all of my classes. I head home feeling great and tonight I don't cut myself. Tonight, I sleep soundly. Tonight, I feel like someone might be able to love me.
