Author's Notes: Happy Holidays everyone! I was supposed to upload this a few days ago, but I was sick when Christmas Vaction started and took me a few days to get back on my laptop. Anyways, for all my readers, here is a little project I'll be doing this holiday called "12 Days of RWBY" which is basically a 12-chapter project featuring certain pairs per chapter. I would like to note that the chapters aren't related to each other whatsoever since there are characters that are repeated and 1 or 2 crack ships of mine, hehehe~
So here I present to you, Chapter 1 of 12 Days of RWBY.
Neptune Vasilias x Weiss Schnee; Friendship and Fluff
Weiss sighed as she looked outside her bedroom window. She was back in Atlas for the holidays; seeing as she didn't have anything planned back in Vale. Ruby and Yang had decided that the holidays were the best time for them and Zwei to go back and visit Patch, something they haven't done since they've arrived in Beacon as well as spend some time with their father. Blake initially didn't have any plans until Sun invited her to Mistral for the holidays. A few days after Ruby and Yang departed, Blake headed out to Mistral leaving Weiss in Vale.
In all honesty, Weiss had started to feel a bit lonely in Vale. Team JNPR decided to spend the holidays together as a team; Jaune had volunteered they visit his hometown. As Beacon grew more and more empty, Weiss was starting to get thoughts about going back home to Atlas for the holidays.
It was merely perfect timing that Winter called and said that she had gotten permission to go home for the holidays. Weiss immediately packed her bags and went home.
And now she was here, back in Atlas. It felt different being home; must've been because she had grown accustomed to being her team. Weiss sighed; she was already missing them. For the next few days, Weiss would be spending the holidays mostly with her sister to catch up how each other has been since they last saw each other during the Vytal tournament. Weiss grimaced at the thought that she would have to face her father sooner or later. She wasn't on good terms with him.
She glanced over at her table when her scroll buzzed. She immediately grabbed it, hoping that it would be a message from Ruby or Yang; or even Blake. Dammit, she actually missed them.
"Neptune?" Weiss muttered upon reading the name on the scroll. She slid her finger across the screen to unlock it and view the message.
'Hey Weiss. I'm in Atlas atm. Are you here too? Wanna grab some coffee?'
Weiss raised an eyebrow at the message. She had assumed that Neptune was in Mistral along with his teammates. What on earth was he doing in Atlas? He hadn't gotten much on her good side since the Vytal tournament, flirting with every female he came across didn't please the heiress. Then again, who was she to tell him what to do?
'Hi Neptune. Yes, I am in fact in Atlas. And I would like to get coffee.'
She looked at the messaged she typed out before she pressed send. A minute later, Neptune's reply came.
'Cool. There's a cafe near my hotel downtown. Meet me there?'
Weiss didn't even think twice before giving him a reply.
'Alright. I'll meet you in 30 minutes.'
It didn't take 10 minutes for Weiss to track down where Neptune was staying and the cafe he was talking about. Being a rich girl had some perks; and having Winter as a sister is a huge advantage when you're tracking someone down. Weiss entered the cafe; no sign of Neptune. Weiss went ahead and ordered some coffee before taking a seat. A few minutes later, Neptune entered.
"Hey Snow Angel." he smiled as he walked over and took the seat across her. "Did you wait long?"
Weiss smiled back. Although she was internally furious at him for flirting with all those other girls before, seeing a familiar face was nice. "I got here a few minutes ago." she took a sip of her coffee. "So, what brings you to Atlas?"
"My parents." Neptune shrugged a bit. "Since Sun is spending the holiday's with Blake and Scarlet decided to go home, I thought it wouldn't be such a bad time to see my parents."
"Oh, so you're here for vacation?" she asked.
"Well, partially yes." he replied, making Weiss raise an eyebrow out of curiosity at him. What on Remnant did he mean by that-
"When I found out my parents were spending the holidays in Atlas, I was kinda hoping you'd be here." he added. Weiss felt a faint gush of blood to her cheeks. Even though she had known Neptune for a while, he still had an effect on her. And she hated the way he'd make her blush. It was totally his fault for being so good-looking.
"O-Oh." she couldn't keep her words straight. "Well then, you're lucky I had decided to come home then." Weiss tried to keep a straight face. But his goddamn smile was just mesmerising.
"I'm pretty lucky then." he leaned forward a bit, resting his chin on his hand. "So, any plans for the holidays?" he asked. Neptune hadn't been the type before to just bluntly ask girls out. But after that talk with Jaune during the dance at Beacon, he had decided to go for it if he really liked the girl. Weiss on the other hand, her blush just grew shades darker and contrasted well with her light skin.
"W-Well, tonight I'm free. Around 7." she replied, glancing to her side and avoid eye contact with Neptune. The sides of Neptune's mouth curled. Weiss mentally slapped herself for immediately answering without thinking.
"Sounds great. I'll take you out for dinner and you can show me around Atlas? You know, get to know the place." he said.
Weiss smiled at the idea. Although everything seemed to sudden that day, she had a feeling that tonight with Neptune would be paced in such a way that they weren't rushing into anything; which they weren't.
"Sounds good to me."
And with that, Weiss had ditched dinner with her father.
A/N: I seriously don't know how to write Neptune x Weiss properly. I just think there isn't enough chemistry yet to write a deep connection between the two, especially with Neptune during S03E02 LOL. Hope you guys enjoyed nonetheless. Hoping to get the next chapter up soon.
