"So, with your pale skin, we obviously don't want dark tones in your makeup. Your lipstick will also be a more subdued colour. Like a light pink."
"Mhm." Winter mumbled. She couldn't move her mouth very much what with Blake and Ruby flitting around her, getting her ready for her first date with Jade.
"Where's she taking you, Winter?" Weiss asked from her bench. Winter locked eyes with her in the mirror. She gestured to their two friends, still dabbing at Winter's face with brushes. "Oh, right. No funny business, you know."
"Weiss, it's not like Jade even wants to do that. For one, illegal under Valic laws. And she's not exactly confident in her body." Ruby scolded.
"It had to be said." Weiss grumbled and folded her arms.
"You did far worse with Yin before you two had even gone on a date. At least Jade and Winter talked for a bit before the kissing." Blake pointed out.
"That is different! I'm far older than her! I've gone through my maturing stage!"
Winter raised an eyebrow at her sister through the mirror.
"I swear, your sister is somehow worse in certain aspects now than she was when I met her and she was still bigoted." Blake sighed.
Weiss flushed an angry red. Winter thought of her own bigotry and frowned. Ruby spotted this and smiled reassuringly.
"You're already far better than you were just a few weeks ago, Winter. You'll only get better from here, and we'll have your back every step of the way. And so will Jade, who is proof that you're trying to be a good person."
Winter smiled at the redhead. She was still kind of weirded out by the relationship she had with Blake, and what Blake had with Sun, and even worse, what Sun had with Neptune. When Blake had accidentally talked about what happened with Sun and Neptune in front of Winter, the young Schnee had choked on her water so hard that she was crying after she finally stopped coughing. But other than that, Ruby had tried to be really kind to Winter. She called out Winter on her many, many failings with correct terminology for gay people, but she always did so in a nice way. Even if Winter definitely didn't deserve kindness after she accidentally called Jade a 'tranny'. Not to her face, obviously. That would have been catastrophic for their burgeoning relationship.
"Weiss, you think we're all done here?" Blake put down her brush and gestured to Winter. The older Schnee was still sulking, but she nodded.
"You look beautiful, Winnie." Weiss used Winter's old pet name. She immediately shuddered.
"Oh my god, don't call me that! But thanks, sis."
"Let's go show the guys." Blake grabbed Winter's hand and pulled her out into the living room. Sun, Neptune, and Yin were playing some sort of card game. All three of them looked up as the girls entered the room. Sun whistled lowly.
"Looking good, Winter. Jade's gonna love it." He said.
"Uh yeah, what he said." Yin shrugged.
"Uhhh, thanks." Winter replied. Yin tossed his bike keys in the air and caught them again.
"You ready to go, Snowflake?"
"Ready as I'll ever be. Jade's probably on her way already." Winter headed for the front door, Ruby and Weiss on her heels. Blake elected to go sit on Sun's lap. Winter fought the urge to shudder again. Yin opened the front door for her as soon as she put on her heels. They weren't the most practical of footwear, but she was trying to make an impression.
"Good luck, Winter." Ruby hugged the girl quickly.
"Tell her I said hi." Weiss kissed Winter's forehead, then she kissed Yin.
"See you later." The tall blonde said to his fiance. She smiled at him. Winter felt Yin's hand on her back, pushing her out of the apartment. The sun was just barely over the horizon, and its pale rays struck Winter as nothing less than beautiful. Yin shut the door behind them and followed Winter's gaze.
"This is my favourite part of the day, ya know." He said. "Well, second-favourite, after waking up to seeing your sister."
"Gross, Yin. I don't wanna hear about that." Winter hopped down the stairs towards Bumblebee.
"Hey, not everything we do is sex. We also cuddle." Yin's footsteps rattled the entire staircase.
"I don't wanna hear it."
"I'm gonna be your brother-in-law soon enough. Get used to it." Winter could hear the laugh in his voice. A truck with a busted muffler rumbled past their building.
"Have you and Weiss picked out a date yet?" Winter grabbed her helmet off the back of Bumblebee. It was pure white, like Weiss's, but unlike Weiss's, Winter's helmet had a streak of green on it. It was entirely cheesy, and Winter and Jade hadn't even gone on a official date yet, but Winter liked it all the same. Yin grabbed his helmet and straddled the bike. Fitting the helmet carefully over his head, trying not to mess up his braid, Yin started the bike. It roared to life, almost deafening Winter, as usual. She put her own helmet on, thankful that her preferred ponytail could be done up as soon as she got to the restaurant.
"No date yet. We're thinking sometime next year, to give Jade an opportunity to be one of your sister's bridesmaids." Yin said. Bumblebee purred underneath his hands. Winter hopped up behind Yin, holding onto his back for balance. She was glad he wasn't able to see her blush. A year of being with Jade? Sounded amazing. Yin revved Bumblebee and off they went.
...
"Dude, get your hands away from me. You're not getting this freaking remote." Neptune tried to shove away a grinning Sun. Weiss rolled her eyes at her best friend. Ruby snickered. Blake came back from the kitchen, a glass of milk in her hand. Sitting down in Ruby's lap, she handed the glass to her part-time lover. Ruby draped an arm around Blake's shoulders and the Faunus woman relaxed into her body.
"Come on, I don't wanna watch your shitty cooking shows. Rambo is on right now, and we're missing it." Sun complained.
"Ewwwww, the reboot? That was the worst of the films." Blake complained. Sun looked over at his girlfriend.
"What? No. The original movie." While Sun was distracted, Neptune wrested the remote away from him and hid it behind the couch.
"That's called First Blood. Not Rambo." Blake winked.
"Fucking semantics, Blakey!" Sun sighed. He turned back to his friend. "Dude, I really don't wanna watch cooking shows."
"But they're making cookies!" Ruby interjected. Sun looked at her.
"Shit, I can't interrupt that. Fine, you guys win." The monkey Faunus reclined into the couch. Neptune subtly moved closer to him. He shot a thumbs up at Ruby, who smiled at the blue-haired man.
An hour later, and Sun was shouting at the TV.
"SHE CLEARLY MADE THE BETTER PASTRIES, WHY ARE YOU BOOTING HER RATHER THAN THAT FUCKING ATLESIAN TART?! No offense, Weiss."
"None taken." Weiss yawned. "Ruby, I'm gonna head back to campus. You coming with?"
"Not yet. I'll be back home later." Ruby nuzzled into Blake's neck. The Faunus woman had fallen asleep on top of her a half hour past.
"Alright, see you later."
"Stay safe."
"Yin'll be coming back soon enough, so I'm pretty sure I'm safe enough. I'm just gonna wait outside for him." Weiss stood up and cracked her back. She headed to the front door, and grabbed her jacket from inside of the closet. She waved goodbye to her friends and left the apartment.
"Jeez, Blakey's really out of it, isn't she?" Sun commented.
"Yeah, she kinda is." Ruby gently kissed the woman's cheek. Sun reached over and took Ruby's empty glass out of her hand.
"I'll just bring this to the kitchen." He got up and did exactly that. Ruby noticed Neptune checking out Sun's ass as the man walked away.
"Just come out with it." Ruby said to Neptune. He looked over at her.
"I'm working on it."
"Well, when you do it, you'll have support."
"I know. I just need the right time."
"Right time for what?" Sun came back from the kitchen, cookies in one hand, and a beer in the other. He handed the cookies to Ruby and cracked open the beer for himself. He sat down beside Neptune, who promptly took the beer away and took a swig.
"For this." He kissed Sun gently. Ruby cheered.
"Holy shit, dude. You okay with this?" Sun said, startled.
"Shouldn't hide who I am anymore." Neptune responded.
"Uhhhh, yeahhh. I'm gonna get Blake to bed, and I'm gonna chill with her." Ruby said nervously. She tried to lift up her friend, but the weight was too much.
"Here, I'll get her." Sun stood up and lifted Blake off of Ruby's lap. The young girl got off her chair, dusting cookie crumbs off her leggings. She followed Sun to Blake's room, where the man deposited his girlfriend onto her bed.
"If we're too loud, just yell at us." Sun said as he pulled the door closed.
"Do I wanna know what you two are gonna do?" Ruby asked.
"Nope." Sun shut the door. Ruby snickered, and sat down beside Blake. Her feline ears were twitching gently. Ruby crawled up towards Blake's head and kissed her on the nose. Ruby rested her arm on her forearms and simply watched Blake sleep. Soon enough, she also fell asleep. When she woke up, the room was pitch black, and Blake was awake. Her luminous eyes were like floodlights to Ruby.
"Jeez, Blake. That's bright as hell."
"Sorry, Rubes." Blake closed her eyes, and the light disappeared.
"How long did we sleep?" Ruby asked.
"A couple of hours, I think. Thanks for cuddling with me."
"My pleasure."
"Speaking about pleasure, I'm feeling pretty pent-up right now. Sun and I haven't had sex since the pride parade. Mind helping me?" The back of Blake's hand brushed against Ruby's breasts and the younger woman shivered.
"I'm not entirely in the mood, Blake. I'm sorry." Ruby frowned. Blake's eyes opened again, blinding Ruby.
"It's okay." Ruby felt Blake's lips brush across hers. "I'll just get myself off in the bathroom." Ruby felt Blake's weight shift off the bed. She opened her eyes and she saw a faint silhouette of Blake, only marked by the light emanating from her eyes. She opened the door, and she left the room. Ruby rolled over and tried to get back to sleep. In her experience, Blake could take some time to come, and she wasn't likely to be leaving the bathroom any time soon. Fifteen minutes later, she was still awake. Try as she might, sleep continued to evade her. She just kept thinking of what Blake was doing, and that just made her wet. Ruby found herself rubbing her thighs against each other to relieve some of the feeling in her crotch. It didn't help much, however, and Ruby's frustration (and arousal) just grew.
"Screw it." She growled to herself. She slipped her thumbs into the waistband of her of leggings and slipped them off. She deposited them near the foot of the bed. Her panties quickly followed. Ruby's hand dipped back towards her wet lower lips. All previous times she had tried masturbating, it had been unsatisfactory. Hopefully, this time would be the exception. Her fingers brushed her clit and the effect was immediate. Ruby felt herself get even wetter. Her fingers went even lower and started massaging her outer folds. She rested her other hand on her breasts, gently squeezing one and then the other. Her crotch was slowly becoming more and more stimulated by the rhythm of her fingers, and she started moaning quietly. She took a quick break to pull off her shirt and throw it away. With one hand on her bare breasts and another one rubbing away at her vagina, Ruby was in heaven. She even dared to put a finger in herself and pump it in and out. Her moans kept getting louder and louder and until she had to bury her face into her pillow to avoid making too much noise. The sounds her fingers were making turned her on far more than she'd ever admit and her entire hand was soaked in her juices. Soon enough, the familiar sensation built. Her stomach tightened just before she saw her own personal fireworks. When her orgasm finally ended, she was breathing quite rapidly. Out of curiosity, she brought her fingers to her mouth and licked the tips of the digits. I talk pretty good, but not 'delicious' as Blake described me. I wonder how good she tastes. As this thought crossed Ruby's mind, she giggled to herself. Only a few months ago, she never would have have these thoughts and she never enjoyed masturbation. The bedroom door opened and Ruby scrambled to cover herself in blankets.
"It smells like sex in here." Blake commented. She shut the door behind her, training her eyes on Ruby.
"Did you get yourself off?" Blake sat down beside Ruby, who nodded. "And how was it?"
"A lot better than I was expecting. I really liked it." Ruby said timidly.
"I'm glad it went well." Blake leaned in and kissed Ruby. "Oh my Oum, you tasted yourself."
"I was curious!" Ruby whined and she hid her head under the covers. Blake just chuckled and ducked under the covers with Ruby.
"I don't blame you. You taste heavenly." Blake kissed Ruby, slipping her tongue into the redhead's mouth. Ruby responded enthusiastically, her tongue wrestling with Blake's and her hands going straight for Blake's ass.
"So much for not being in the mood, huh?" Blake said after breaking off the kiss.
"Oh shut up and get naked." Ruby tossed back the blankets and yanked Blake's leggings off. To her surprise, the Faunus woman wasn't wearing panties.
"My, my, Ruby." Blake teased. Ruby ignored her and kissed along her thighs. Blake's laughs turned into moans.
"Holy shit, you're a natural." She gasped. Ruby sucked on a bit of flesh just above Blake's knee.
"Babe, if you're gonna leave hickeys, do 'em where people can see 'em." Blake moaned. Her request was immediately answered when Ruby sat up and transferred her lips to Blake's throat. The raven-haired beauty whispered Ruby's name over and over as the woman sucked on the skin of her neck.
"You're way too good at that." Blake said. Her hands rubbed Ruby's breasts, much to the younger woman's delight.
"I learned from the best." Ruby whispered before she captured Blake's lips with her own. The woman relinquished her grip on Ruby's breasts to grip the back of her head to prevent her from moving away. This wasn't necessary, however, because Ruby was very happy where she was. Her fingers trailed up and down Blake's slit and the woman moaned into Ruby's mouth.
"Right there, please." Blake whispered. Ruby put a finger in Blake and the woman threw her head back.
"Are you enjoying this?" Ruby asked.
"Ruby, my love, I will never not enjoy your...ministrations."
"Good. Because I may be less than thrilling with this." Ruby's lips left Blake's and started kissing down her body. Her free hand gripped at the hem of Blake's tank top, and Blake took the hint to take it off. When Blake's chest was bare, Ruby sucked on her nipples.
"Ooh, that actually feels really nice."
Ruby would have loved to continue, but her fingers were getting drenched and she didn't want Blake to come yet. She reluctantly let Blake's nipple slip out of her mouth and she resumed her trek toward the woman's core.
"Are you sure, Ruby?"
"Yeah. I want you to get the same pleasure I did last time." Ruby slipped another finger inside Blake.
"Oh god, that feels so good."
"I hope this feels even better." Ruby's tongue flicked Blake's clit, and the woman screamed. Ruby hushed her.
"I'm sorry, but holy shit, that felt amazing." Blake giggled. Ruby smiled. Her lips closed on Blake's clit and she continued flicking it with her tongue. There was a rustling and Blake's moans got significantly muted. Ruby assumed she'd covered her mouth with a pillow, just like she had. Ruby sucked on Blake's clit for another few seconds, pumping her fingers in and out of Blake at a rapid pace. With her other hand, she parted Blake's lips and licked gently. Blake's hand clutched at the back of Ruby's head.
"Keep going!" The woman yelled. Ruby's tongue flicked up and down Blake's vagina. She found that she kinda liked the taste. She fastened her mouth over the mound and licked for a few minutes until Blake screamed louder than she ever had, and Ruby felt Blake come into her mouth. The woman's entire body shook for ten minutes.
"Jesus fucking Christ, that was the best orgasm I've ever had." Blake said when she finally became still.
"I'm glad I was the one to give it to you." Ruby pulled her fingers out of Blake. She heard the woman gasp in pleasure. Blake reached down and grabbed Ruby's shoulders, pulling the woman up. Blake kissed Ruby, tasting herself on her lover's lips.
"Thank you for that. You were amazing." Blake whispered.
"Thank you for helping me realise exactly what I'm into." Ruby whispered back.
"And what's that?"
"You." Ruby put her soaked fingers in her mouth. Blake laughed.
"And not all the time, at that. I feel special."
"You are." Ruby kissed her friend.
"I love you, Ruby." Blake smiled.
"I love you too."
"I've got a question for you, and it may seem a little unorthodox, but I really need to ask you."
"You can ask me anything, Blakey."
"So, you know how Sun and I are in an open relationship, yeah? Any day now, he's gonna ask out Neptune, and I kinda wanna beat him to the punch by asking you out."
"Are you asking me to be your girlfriend?"
"I suppose I am."
"I'd be honoured to accept, but how will that work?"
"I don't know. Like one day could be a Sun day, and the next could be yours. And for him, one day could be me, and the next could be Neptune. We'll figure something out."
"Okay. Blake?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you."
"You too, Ruby."
...
Sun's mouth was filled with Neptune's length when he heard Blake scream with pleasure.
"Ruby must be really good at getting Blake off." Neptune remarked. Sun sat up.
"She's better than me, I think. That was louder than I've ever heard Blake." He frowned. His hand stroked up and down Neptune's cock absent-mindedly.
"Well, if it's any consolation, you get me more aroused than anyone else." Neptune stroked Sun's chin. The blond grinned and kissed his best friend.
"You had some of my precum in your mouth, dude. That's gay as hell." Neptune muttered. Sun raised an eyebrow at him.
"Right. I need to stop saying that." Neptune blushed.
