"You complete dolt!" The white haired girl had sneered "I asked for a WHITE mocha!" She then turned to leave. Ruby was hurt by the snide comment. 'It's only my first day and I already messed up a customer's drink…' she thought to herself. Ruby had gotten a job at the local café as a barista. She never really thought much of coffee until she started this job. During her training she found that coffee was much more than just hot water with ground up coffee beans. Certain blends complimented different pastries, and so many different combinations of flavors and personalities that each flavor had. Coffee was almost an art to her now. But Ruby felt defeated in her artistry. How could such a pretty girl be so rude?

As the weeks went by, Ruby improved her barista skills, learning latte foam art and the differences in proportions. During this time, the white haired girl would frequent the café and would avoid Ruby taking her order, in fear of her drink being messed up again. But on one slow day, Ruby was the only one working in the café. The white haired girl hesitated going inside, but she was really craving her coffee. Reluctantly, she entered the café and ordered her usual.

"Hello… I would like a WHITE chocolate mocha," the girl grumbled, "NOT a regular mocha." Ruby nodded, not wanting to invoke the wrath of the picky girl. As she walked over to the espresso machine to start her drink, Ruby was feeling as bitter as a shot of espresso.

'Why shouldn't I mess up her order?' Ruby thought to herself, 'No, I shouldn't. I'll just put some raspberry in her drink. After all, I think it pairs well with white mocha. If she doesn't like it maybe she won't come back...' As Ruby handed the crabby girl her drink, she started to tremble slightly, in fear of what she might say about her changed drink. "Here you go," Ruby said sheepishly, I hope you like it." The white haired girl leered at Ruby, and turned her gaze towards her cup. Ruby felt the tension in the air, so she decided to get back to work.

"Wait," The white haired girl called out, "This tastes… different."

Ruby froze in place, "I'm sorry," she confessed without turning around, "I felt bad for messing up your drink last time. So I put some raspberry in your white mocha because they complement each other. At least, I think they do." The white haired girl stayed silent. "I'm so sorry, let me remake-"

"Actually," The girl interrupted, "This tastes surprisingly good! I'm usually not too fond of raspberries, but this is a great exception. I suppose this makes up for the last drink you botched." She took a sip and smiled at Ruby. "I'm Weiss."

Ruby met eyes with Weiss. 'Hmm light blue eyes...'
"I'm Ruby. It's WEISS to meet you!" Ruby grinned, hoping for a chuckle. Silence pierced the air as Weiss gazed at her. "Uh… I mean it's nice to meet you."Ruby muttered.

"He he, It's nice to meet you too Ruby." Weiss chuckled. She didn't know whether to laugh at how cute or dumb the joke was.


So this is my first fanfic! I'm super excited to write this, and I hope you all like it! As stated in the summery, there will be lemon in much later chapters.

Each chapter will be a bit longer than the last, and this was more of a prologue to the whole story. I take constructive criticism very well, and I appreciate all reviews and questions!
