MY FIRST RWBY FIC! This took me unnecessarily long to write, I'm sorry. If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you would have known this story has been in the works since July... So many edits have been made, and I struggled to capture the characters. HOPEFULLY, it turned out awesome and you like it.

Thank you to one of mah buddies on Instagram for the title!

I tapped my foot impatiently on the ground and breathed an exasperated sigh. For someone who's the star of the track team, she sure excels at wasting time, I thought grudgingly. I checked the time on my phone; she was already fifteen minutes late! The majority of students had already left - where the hell was Ruby?!

"Waddup, Ice Queen?" a voice spoke from behind me. Jumping slightly, I turned my head to see my classmate Yang - Ruby's half sister - smiling with that stupid grin she always sports. Her girlfriend, Blake, walked slowly behind, her nose buried in a book labelled Ninjas of Love.

Turning away, I sighed again. "I have asked you countless times to stop calling me that, Yang," I said, my anger at the girl already rising.

"I'll stop when you quit being all..." Yang paused, thinking of the right word to use. Shortly, she snapped her fingers, her grin widening. "Elsa!" At that moment, Blake bumped into Yang, almost dropping her book. She held it tightly to her chest, looking around and silently hoping that no one saw what she was reading.

Pinching the bridge of my nose, I scowled deeply at Yang. "Where is your sister?" I asked her.

"Well, I saw that new kid Oscar drag her into the toilets," Yang joked, earning a smack on her arm from Blake.

She turned to me, and said, "Professor Ozpin needed to speak with her. She should be finished soon." Without another word, she reopened her book and began reading again, walking towards the parking lot of Beacon High.

Yang patted me on the back with her freakish strength. "I'll see you later, Weiss." I nodded in acknowledgement, and she quickly caught up with Blake. I found myself watching as Yang pulled Blake's hand into her own; I couldn't help but feel envious of the two.

Yang came out as gay to us all approximately six months ago. Of course, her family were 100 percent accepting. Pyrrha and Jaune simply shrugged it off, claiming they already knew. Ren had to restrain Nora from jumping through the roof in excitement. Shortly after, Blake came out as bisexual, along with her relationship with Yang. Again, we were all incredibly happy that they finally discovered who they are - even though it was undoubtedly obvious. Sometimes I wonder if my father would be as supportive as our friends.

I let a sardonic chuckle escape my lips. Yeah right.

"What's so funny?" Snapping my head to the side, I saw my best friend uncomfortably close to my face. Her impossible silver eyes sparkled like those of a child's on Christmas morning. Her lips were curled up into a bright smile. Those perfect, kissable lips.

Wait, what?

"You okay, Weiss?" Ruby asked, concern etched into her voice. "Your face is all red! Do you need anything? Water? Soup? A doctor? Does anyone have any medical training?" she rambled, yelling for someone to help, even though the streets were empty.

"I'm fine, Ruby," I cut through her rant, gaining a concerned look. "Really, I'm fine - quit worrying. Can we go now?" In response, Ruby linked her arm with my own and dragged me down the streets of Vale.

I didn't say a word as Ruby babbled on about anything and everything. She changed topics about three times a minute. For most of the journey to Ruby's home, I didn't understand a word she said, not did I cared. I was just happy to hear her cheerful, bubbly voice.

Ruby swung the door open to her house, calling out, "I'm home!" before returning back out into the summer air. Ruby's eyes were wide like she'd seen a ghost, and her cheeks burned redder than her caped hood. "Do not go in there," she managed hoarsely. I noted Yang's motorcycle leaning against the wall of the house. I raised a single eyebrow pondering at what could have driven Ruby from her own home. My question was answered as the door reopened and Yang stood with a light blush coating her cheeks.

"Sorry, Rubes," she apologised to her flustered sister, straightening her mane of golden locks. "We didn't expect you back so soon." I lifted myself to my toes to look over the tall girl's shoulder to find Blake curled up on the couch like a kitten, with her head in her hands.

"That was gross, Yang!" Ruby scolded, her voice higher than usual. "I didn't need to see that!"

"I'm glad it was you and not Dad," Yang replied, walking back into the house to console her mortified girlfriend. Ruby followed, with me close behind; we sat on the adjacent couch.

"Where is Dad anyway?" Ruby asked, shaking her blush away.

Yang stifled a giggle. "Blake got scared by Zwei, so he took him out for a walk." She patted her partner on the shoulder lightly, and Blake shot her head up.

"That dog is out to get me, I'm sure of it!" she defended.

"He's just a corgi, Blake," I tried to reason.

"An evil corgi." I mentally facepalmed at her ridiculous response, as the two sisters failed to hold in their laughter, to which Blake did not appreciate. I honestly never understood why Blake didn't like Zwei - he's such a cute puppy! Not that I'd ever announce that to anyone, of course.

Blake swatted Yang's arm again, and she halted her laughter, hiding her face in the crook of her girlfriend's neck to refrain bursting out again. Yang's hand caressed Blake's exposed stomach, and slowly drifted up her shirt to cup a breast, as if they'd both forgotten we were there. I couldn't tear my eyes away even if I wanted to. Beside me, Ruby squeaked and shielded her eyes, shaking her head violently.

"Come on, Weiss, let's go upstairs!" I barely heard Ruby's frantic suggestion as she tugged on my wrist and dragged me up the wooden steps. "See you later, guys!" she called back down, earning a louder than expected moan from our black-haired friend. Ruby visibly shuddered and we entered her bedroom.

Although I'd visited Ruby's house before, I'd never had the honour of seeing her bedroom. Upon first glance, it was obvious that she shared the space with Yang. Both sides of the room, belong to the respective sister, were rather messy, Yang's to a greater extent. The covers were ripped off the beds and bundled at the ends, the trashcan was overflowing with crumpled paper, drinks cans and rotting food. The walls were decorated with posters that typical teenagers would find appealing - boybands, movies, various celebrities, etc. Other than the mess, it was more or less how I'd imagined Ruby's bedroom.

"Sorry about the mess," Ruby apologised, skipping over to her bed on the far side of the room, and flopped stomach first on top of it, rummaging around the other side for something.

"No worries," I replied, carefully sitting on the end of Ruby's bed, eying the trashcan - I'm sure that moldy food had mutated eyes and was looking at me. I shuddered to rid my mind of the disturbing thought.

Ruby suddenly sprang up and got in my face again. "Are you cold?" she asked me.

"I'm always cold, Ruby," I said. "It's a Schnee thing." Without saying another word, Ruby darted from the room with her impeccable speed, leaving me alone in the pigsty of a bedroom.

Something had to be done.

"MY EYES!" I heard Ruby squeal as the door slammed shut, a large piece of fabric in hand. Her eyes were closed tight, and she was shaking her head ferociously. Her cheeks were burning even more so than before. Below the floorboards, I could just make out Yang's cackling laughter. Soon, my mind pieced it all together.

"Oh," was all I could say, allowing a blush to rise in my cheeks, letting the image float into my mind's eye.

Ruby stumbled over to her bed - eyes still closed - almost tripping over her own feet in the process. "My innocent mind has been violated!" She faceplanted the mattress, and randomly started patting it. Rolling onto her back, Ruby sat bolt upright, eyes scanning the room.

"You cleaned," she acknowledged, taking in her now spotless bedroom.

"Well, the place was bombsite," I said, sitting beside my friend. "I couldn't just sit here and do nothing." I grimaced as I remembered the state and stench of that bin. Suddenly, a cozy, warm blanket was draped over my shoulders. Ruby smiled kindly at me.

"Thank you, Weiss," she said softly. For a moment, I thought she was going to kiss me, but I immediately dismissed that idea. There was no way Ruby would do something like that - especially to someone like me. "I was just gonna blackmail Yang to do it," she added with small giggle.

I found myself cracking the smallest of smiles. "You're impossible, Ruby Rose."

"That's why you love me." I froze at her response. I tried to say something, but no words were coming out. We sat in an awkward silence for a few minutes before I bucked up the courage to speak.

I cleared my throat and said, "so, why did you invite me over?"

Ruby rubbed the back of her head nervously. "Your family is kinda intimidating, so I thought we could hang out at mine today." She let loose that adorable, little laugh again. She suddenly went serious. "You're not mad are you?" Then, she rose to her feet. "We can go somewhere else if you want. How about the café that just opened up near Beacon? I hear their cookies are to die for!" she gushed. I couldn't help but laugh at the girl's behaviour. "Stop laughing - it's weirding me out."

"How can I not laugh when you're being so cute?" I mentally slapped myself for saying such a thing. Thankfully, Ruby didn't notice. Instead, she pulled out a flat device and leaned back against her neatly fluffed pillows. She patted on the spot beside her for me to lounge with her, opening her laptop. "What are you doing?" I asked as I watched Ruby load up a site called 'YouTube'.

"I am going to force you to watch something you'll more than likely hate," she answered as if commenting on the weather, but her smile was still as big as ever.

"Great," I said sarcastically. I settled back and made myself comfortable on the small bed. Bracing myself for whatever Ruby had in store, I kept my eyes on the laptop screen as the video commenced.

Ruby was right - I hated it. It was so ridiculous and stupid, I couldn't believe it actually exists. And the language! It was an abomination! But why couldn't I turn away? Two middle aged men attempting to be superheroes? How can this possibly be classed as 'good television'? Throughout the entire first season, Ruby was laughing uncontrollably at moments I didn't find even remotely funny. At least she was enjoying herself, that's all that mattered.

A few annoyingly long episodes into the second season, Ruby seemed to fall silent. At first, I didn't blame her - there was nothing funny about what was happening on screen - but then the video ended and she hadn't made an effort to change it to the next. It was then that I noticed she'd been watching something else the whole time. I felt her eyes bore into the side of my head as silence fell on the room.

Soon, irritation got the better of me and I snapped my head to look at Ruby. "What?" I said harshly, but Ruby didn't seem to care. She just stared at me intently with big, silver eyes, lips parted slightly. I felt the heat in my cheeks rise and I averted my gaze from Ruby's piercing one. "Do you want to watch the next episode?" I stammered, gaining no response but the slapping noise of the laptop Ruby shut; I jumped slightly.

"Do you forgive me?" Ruby asked almost inaudibly; I had to strain my ears to hear her. She inched closer.

"For what?" I asked back, confused by her ridiculous question. She hadn't done anything wrong.

Ruby moved even closer, her face only centimeters from my own. "This," she whispered. Before I had time to question her further, Ruby closed the gap between us.

It took me longer than it probably should have to realise that Ruby was kissing me. Just as I started to kiss her back, Ruby pulled away and I found myself following in her wake. I let out a small whimper.

"Sorry," Ruby apologised, in a state of melancholy, pointing her index fingers together. "I shouldn't have done that. It's just you're really beautiful and pretty and stuff, and I don't want you to think of me as some gross weirdo. I really like you, Weiss, and I-"

"Ruby," I cut through her rant. I lifted her chin to look me in the eyes. Her entire face was red with embarrassment, and I'm fairly certain mine was in a similar state. I felt my face split into the biggest grin its had since I was a child. "You dolt." Tugging at her hood's collar, I pulled Ruby in for a much more deeper kiss.

The kiss quickly got heated as our tongues duelled one another. Ruby breathed a small moan into my mouth, which drove me other the edge. I forced Ruby onto her back and straddled her waist, not once breaking the kiss. My hands found their way to Ruby's head where I combed my fingers through her silky, black - with impossible hints of red - hair. Ruby tugged at my uniform's blazer, eager for it to be removed, to which I kindly obliged and tossed to the floor. Next to be removed was my shirt as she ripped it open and draped it down to my elbows, while I got to work with the buttons on hers.

Soon, my lungs screamed for air and I had to - with much reluctance - break the kiss. I gazed down at Ruby, panting to regain regular breathing again. She looked back up at me, her stare unreadable as she too tried to catch her breath. We stared into each others eyes before my gaze dropped down to her chest; I could see something poking through her crimson bra. My breath hitched in my throat as I continued to stare at my best friend's breasts.

"Weiss?" Ruby broke through my hazed thoughts. I snapped my eyes back to hers to find that she was incredibly embarrassed. We didn't say anything for a long while, lost in our own thoughts.

Quickly but carefully, I removed my body from Ruby's. "Sorry," I uttered.

"Weiss Schnee, did you just apologise?" Ruby joked. My face turned beet red - I'd never apologised to anyone outside of my family. Why would I apologise for something like a kiss? Bearing in mind, that was my first kiss.

Holy shit, my first kiss was with Ruby Rose!

I covered my face with my hands, feeling the heat rise in my cheeks tremendously. Ruby placed her hand on my shoulder, and I backed away, apologising again.

"Weiss, there's no need to apologise," Ruby told me in her serious, non-Ruby-like tone. "I... I liked it," she stammered; I could tell she was just as embarrassed I was. "May we do it again?" I removed my hands from my face and could now see that Ruby's cheeks were brighter than they had been when she'd walking in on Blake and Yang... canoodling.

It took me a while to find my voice. "Okay," I managed. Ruby carefully held my cheek in her hand and we slowly leaned closer until our lips touched, much more sweet and chaste than our ravaging kiss a few minutes ago. Quicker than it started, the kiss was over. I rested my forehead to hers and smiled a kind smile - a bigger smile than the last.

"Did you just kiss my sister?" I heard Yang snarl from the doorway. Both Ruby and I snapped our heads to look at the taller woman. Her hair was more dishevelled than before and cheeks lightly tinted, whether because of catching Ruby and I in the act, or her shenanigans with Blake, I couldn't tell. But she didn't appear mad - more irritated than anything.

"Yang!" Ruby squeaked from beside me, quickly re-buttoning her shirt. "Let me explain - I kissed Weiss first! I really, really like her, and I think she likes me, too. Please don't be angry with us!" Throughout Ruby's rambling, I'd managed to fix my clothes and pull on my blazer, all the while keeping an eye on Yang, watching for a reaction.

For what felt like an eternity, the blonde brute remained silent, arms crossed over her chest, her expression unchanging. Then she let out a long, exasperated groan, and she poked her head back outside to the hallway.

"Blake, I owe you fifty bucks!"

Okay, so that happened. Had to refrain myself of writing smut. There WILL be a second part to this story [yay!], so look forward to that, I guess. I'm actually debating on making this a WhiteRose/BumbleBee fluff fic. Yanno... like, a bunch of chapters dedicated to different scenarios between them? Let me know what you guys think.

Catcha later and have a great day.
