Here's chapter 1, everyone.

"Blake, gonna need you to bring your drunk girlfriend to another room. She's starting to make Ruby uncomfortable." Yang complained with her arms crossed in her hunter outfit. "Just because we decided to spend a team day together, doesn't mean she should've gotten drunk."

The cat Faunus of the team looked a bit angry with how she said that. "You know how stressed she's been lately. And before you say drinking is not the solution, you should cut her some slack."

Yang sighed in response. "I know, okay. Her sister got hurt on a mission, sure, but come on. You of all people should know that Weiss doesn't go to this."

"She's been through a lot these past few weeks. So give her a break." Blake demanded as she walked past Yang and walked into their dorm.

"W-Weiss, I'm really sorry, but I don't really know the answer to that question. And… Why are you making me take a math test? We're huntresses in training." Ruby said while sitting at the desk with a pencil in hand.

The heiress hiccuped and groaned at her response. "You need to know this stuff!" She drank a bit more from her bottle she snuck in. "If you don't, then you won't be prepared for the world!"

Blake frowned and walked over, seeing Ruby looking more upset with her shouts. "Weiss, please stop. You know you shouldn't have brought that here." The black cat said as she tried to reach out for the bottle.

Weiss pulled away from her and held the bottle closer to herself. "D-Don't even think about it." She hiccuped and tried to hide the bottle.

Ruby used this distraction to get up from the chair and run to her sister. Blake on the other hand sighed and closed the door, leaving the sisters out of the room as she took off her bow. "Weiss, if you give that to me, I promise to keep my bow off for the rest of the night."

The drunken heiress blushed and looked at the cat ears, frowning as tears started to fall. "I-I'm a mess… A mess that you have to clean up… Aren't I?"

Blake's eyes widened as she ran over to hug her girlfriend. "Don't you dare say that about yourself. Please."

Weiss began to cry into Blake's shoulder. "I-I just wanted," She hiccuped again, but more from the crying than the drunkenness. "Ruby to be prepared… Like how Winter helped me."

That answer Blake already knew from the start with all of the stories Weiss told about her sister. "Shhh, you don't have to say anything else. Just please, give me the bottle, and then we'll lay down together. Okay?"

Weiss bit her lip and pulled away. She looked at the bottle in her hand, and then at Blake. Then back at the bottle as she nodded and handed the bottle over to Blake. Once the cat Faunus had the bottle, she put it away to throw out later. Weiss sniffled and was still blushing. "I-I'm sorry."

Blake sighed and gently took Weiss' hand to lead her to the bed. "You don't have to say that anymore. All I want you to do is lay down and get some rest. Please?"

Weiss looked down at her bed, letting a few tears hit the floor as she nodded slowly and got on top of her bed. "Can I-?"

Blake stopped her and kneeled down, leaning her head over. "Just as long as you remember our deal on this. No telling anyone outside of Ruby and Yang."

With a slight smile, something Blake was happy to see, Weiss reached over and felt Blake's cat ears, giggling in her drunken state. "They're always so soft." That comment got Blake to blush. "Hehe, you get so red when I do this."

"Don't you start." Blake warned, but she was still happy Weiss was out of her saddened state. "I swear Yang better not walk in while you're doing this. She still hasn't let me live it down from last time."

Weiss puffed up her cheeks after pulling her hand away. "She doesn't get anything. That," A hiccup interrupted. "Buffoon likes to make fun of things she can't have."

Blake smirked and raised an eyebrow. "Oh, so I'm a prize now?"

A gasp from the heiress kept the smirk on Blake's face alive. "W-What?! No! I didn't say that!"

Blake chuckled in response and leaned over to kiss Weiss' forehead. "I know you didn't. I was only joking. But I really do want you to go to sleep. Can you do that for me?"

Weiss whimpered and frowned, but she knew, even still drunk that Blake was right. She needed sleep, so once she felt Blake pull the covers over her, she closed her eyes.

She took a bit to examine her girlfriend, but as soon as she knew Weiss was asleep, Blake sighed in relief. Blake made sure to kiss Weiss' forehead one more time before turning around to talk with Ruby and Yang.

"I just… I feel bad, Yang. I didn't know what to say." Ruby said, feeling saddened, but more so because she felt that she wasn't being a good leader.

Yang shook her head. "Don't do that. Heck, when she's sober again, you know Weiss will tell you herself that you didn't have to do anything there."

"Yes I did." Ruby stated, more with anger, but at herself. "She's my partner, but more importantly my friend. If something happened to you, I know she'd help me through it."

"Well, I mean, okay yeah, but there are times where you can't kick yourself over it. Look at me. I would love to help her too, but I didn't think of anything that would be best to say." Yang reasoned, but when she noticed Ruby wasn't looking any better, she had thought of one more thing to say. "Hey, think about this. Blake has got it under control. You know that."

Ruby didn't seem all that assured, but when she noticed Blake leaving the door she ran over. "How is she?" Ruby asked in a worried tone.

Blake made sure to close the door lightly so she wouldn't wake Weiss up. "I got the bottle away and she's asleep. Just try not to make any noise if you plan to go in there."

Yang shook her head and sighed. "We've gotta make sure she doesn't do this again."

"I know, but don't get mad at her." Blake defended. "She doesn't need that right now."

"It's not like I'd yell at the girl. I'd just talk to her and… You know, tell her she's an idiot for drinking to deal with-." Yang yelped when Blake punched her arm. "Ow…"

Blake growled in response. "Do you even consider her your friend? You keep making comments about that and it's starting to piss me off, Yang."

The blonde brawler was taken aback, seeing that Blake wasn't playing around. "I-I… Okay, I'm sorry. I won't say shit about this anymore. I'm just worried about her, okay." Yang sighed. "Our uncle Qrow gets drunk sometimes, and yeah, he's a cool uncle, but I don't want Weiss getting to his level of being drunk so much."

Blake's ears twitched and her eyes widened when she forgot to put her bow back on, so she put her hands over her hand. "Ugh… Damn it. I need to get back in the room… And fine, I accept your apology. Just don't chastise her for this." Blake said as she walked back into the dorm as quiet as she could.

Yang looked more saddened after that talk. "I messed up."

Ruby sighed. "Yeah, but Blake won't be upset for too long. Still, I just hope Weiss will be okay in the morning."

"Rubes, she'll probably have a hangover, so no loud noises tomorrow." Yang walked to the door, but stopped right before opening it. "And Ruby, can you promise not to say sorry to Weiss?"

"Huh?" Ruby was confused by the request.

"I know you, sis. You're gonna wanna apologize to her, but you shouldn't. Just be there for Weiss…" Yang sighed and looked to the ground in disappointment of herself. "I guess I need to learn to do that too." She reached for the doorknob and opened the door, walking in and seeing that the heiress was asleep, and Blake was busy putting her bow back on.

Ruby walked in after, closing the door as light as she could. "Where's the bottle, Blake?"

Blake stopped working on her bow after Ruby spoke, and she pulled the bottle out from where she put it. "I'll go throw this out. Make sure not to make any noise, okay." Blake warned as she walked out of the dorm with the bottle.

The cat Faunus was a little worried that someone would catch her in the hallway with the bottle, but when she noticed there weren't any teachers around, she made a sprint for one of the disposal bins. "Miss Belladonna… What is that you are holding?"

Blake's eyes widened and she froze with the bottle kept close to her, since she didn't want whoever was behind her to see it. "U-Uh, it's not what it looks like."

Glynda Goodwitch crossed her arms and tapped her foot against the ground. "Young lady, turn around right now. And don't play dumb with me."

All Blake could do was sigh as she turned around with the bottle in full view of Glynda now. "Please, Ms. Goodwitch. This really isn't what it looks like. I was just throwing it away."

"Oh really? And why do you have this in school? You know the rules, now hand it over." Glynda demanded with her hand extended out.

Blake frowned and handed the bottle over. "I… I wasn't drinking any of it. I swear."

"Then answer me this." Glynda said as she looked annoyed. "Why. Did. You. Have. It?"

Blake didn't want to rat her girlfriend out, especially with the issues she was dealing with at that time. "It wasn't supposed to be here. That's all. It was a mistake and I was just doing what I could to throw it away."

"Is that so? Well just because you're the legal age to drink this, does not mean you should bring it to the school. This is going on your record, young lady." Glynda shook her head. "I am very disappointed in you, Miss Belladonna."

Blake's ears drooped under her bow. "I'm sorry, Ms. Goodwitch. I-."

"Enough." Glynda sighed and proceeded to throw away the bottle. "Nobody needs this. And to think a student, especially one who has never broken rules around here would do such a thing."

"Hey, hold up." A voice called out, revealing it to be Yang.

Glynda raised an eyebrow. "Miss Xiao Long, this doesn't concern you."

"Um, it kinda does. Blake is my partner and that bottle was mine." Yang said, surprising Blake with her lie. "I was just way too freaked out to throw it away myself, so I asked Blake to do it. If anyone is gonna get something on their record, it should be the person who brought the bottle in."

"Is that right? And why are you here now?" Glynda inquired.

"Guilty conscience. I couldn't let Blake take the fall here, so please don't mark her record down with this." Yang begged.

Glynda groaned at the pair. "You two… Okay, fine. Miss Belladonna, this is your only warning. Even if it wasn't you who brought this in the school, if I see you with something like this again, it WILL go on your record. As for you, Miss Xiao Long. Expect detention and a mark on your record about this." When Yang nodded in agreement, Glynda sighed and walked off. "Get back to your dorm, you two. It is late enough as is."

Yang gave Glynda a thumbs up and as she walked away and out of sight, Blake walked over to Yang. "You didn't have to do that." She said, feeling bad that Yang covered for her.

"Don't even worry about it. I don't care about some mark on my record. Besides, I owe you for being a bit of a jerk back there." Yang smiled.

Blake's ears perked back up and she smiled back. "Thanks. We really should get back to the dorm though."

Yang looked out of one of the windows, seeing just how dark it was. "Huh, didn't even notice that." The blonde brawler and the ebony haired cat Faunus made their way back to their dorm.

The morning arrived and Weiss slowly opened her eyes, groaning under her blanket. "Ugh. Why are the shades open this much…" She complained after the sunlight was cast upon her.

"A hangover will get you like that, princess." Yang said as she closed the shades, making Weiss sigh in relief. "You need anything?"

Weiss sat up in her bed, her hair let down as she examined the room to see Blake and Ruby weren't around. "Where is-?"

"Blake is getting you some water since she saw you stirring in bed a bit ago, and Ruby went to go get breakfast. Speaking of that, what do you want for breakfast? I can get you something if you need it."

"Uh, an apple I suppose." Weiss held her head with her left hand, thinking about the night before.

Yang hated seeing her that way, since it was the very thing she's hoping for Weiss not to make a habit of. "You're gonna need a bit more than that, princess. I'll bring some scrambled eggs too. Just try to stay in bed, okay."

Weiss didn't want to argue, so she nodded and rubbed her head a few times. "Yeah, sure, whatever." Weiss didn't care either to continue the conversation, only knowing that getting drunk the night before was not the best idea.

Yang shrugged in response, not wanting to bother. "Okay. See ya in a bit."

When yang left the room, Weiss laid back in bed again, sighing as she started up at the bottom of Ruby's bunk. Two nights ago she received word that her sister was injured to the point of needing to stay in an infirmary. Something she never thought would happen to her older sister. The news instantly devastated the heiress that day and her team, mostly Blake tried to get her to stay off of her scroll, since she would try to find some way to keep updates on her sister's condition.

Winter…

Weiss began to tear up, mostly because she truly believed her sister was the model of perfection. Someone she wanted to impress and always be like, but the times she'd show that in expression, Winter would berate her and tell her to be her own person. Still, the news that even her sister could be hurt in battle hurt Weiss more than anything.

While deep in thought, Blake made it back to the dorm and noticed Weiss hadn't reacted to her walking in. "Weiss?" Still no response, but Blake knew she was awake, since the heiress was clearly just staring up at her partner's bunk. Blake frowned and walked over with the bottle of water in her hand. "Weiss, I brought you some water."

Since she was closer, Weiss gasped and sat up in her bed, looking right at her girlfriend. "B-Blake… Oh, I'm sorry. I was just… Um, thinking."

Blake sighed and handed her the bottle of water, which the heiress accepted. "You say sorry more than you should." She let out a small smile. "Do you remember much of last night?"

Weiss looked a bit upset with the question, so instead of answering immediately, she took a sip from the water bottle. After pulled the bottle away, she sighed. "Yes… Not everything, but some of it."

Blake decided to sit down on Weiss' bed with her. "You know you can always talk to me."

The heiress chuckled lightly in response. "I doubt you'd say that last year."

"Hey, we barely knew each other back then. It's been more than a year, and you know I trust you much more now." Blake stated.

"I know… And I trust you a lot more too." Weiss smiled and held the water bottle with both hands, but her expression changed to a more saddened one. "I feel like an idiot."

"You know we both said that a lot when we started our second year here." Blake replied, trying to keep the mood from shifting to an even sadder one. "We're both idiots at times, but that's when the other idiot helps the first one."

Weiss playfully rolled her eyes and sighed. "Come on. You know what I mean."

"Maybe, but I still stand by what I said. What you still don't get is that I'm almost as stubborn as you are." Blake said, smirking a bit.

Weiss' cheeks puffed up with a splash of red on her face. "S-Shut up. I'm not stubborn… Okay, but not as much as you make me out to be." She said and crossed her arms in the normal Weiss fashion that Blake has grown accustomed to.

"I'll give you that, since you have been more open." Blake smiled and took a breath, knowing that she needed to really get to the point. "How are you feeling?"

"Stupid… Head hurts. So that's about how well today has started." Weiss explained.

Blake's ears drooped a bit. "You know, it'll get better. You just need to-."

"I know… I know." Weiss cut her off and gave her a small reassuring smile. "I promise not to sulk for too long, but my head really does hurt a bit, so maybe we can just, sit here. Talk a little. That always helps."

Blake nodded in response, seeing Weiss scooting over a bit to let her sit on the bed. Once she was sat down, Blake spoke again. "I can always read you one of my books if you want."

Weiss took that opportunity to have a little fun with her girlfriend. "Oh? And which of your many books would that be? Surely not one of the Nin-."

The heiress yelped when Blake gave her a death glare. "Don't… Mention… That." Weiss blinked a few times and slowly nodded, the death glare from Blake fading and becoming a smile. "Good. Now pick. Book reading, or do you just want to talk?"

"I… I suppose talking would be nice. How is, well how are Ruby and Yang? They're not upset… Are they?" Weiss asked.

"Ruby was worried about you, so was Yang, but no, they aren't mad." Blake said as she reached over and moved some of Weiss' hair out of her face, making the heiress blush.

"I… I feel-." Weiss was cut off.

"Stop it. I already know what you'll say." Blake moved her hand away and took a breath. "Weiss, I think I was the one who really made the mistake last night."

"W-What do you mean? You didn't get drunk like an idiot. That was… That was me." Weiss said, feeling disappointed in herself.

Blake shook her head. "No. I didn't talk to you about Winter." Those words made Weiss tense up. "Please, don't hide your feelings from me ever again."

Weiss sniffled, surprising Blake. "S-She couldn't have… No way. Winter would never get hurt."

Blake knew Weiss was going to have a hard time accepting her sister wasn't invincible, so she pulled the white haired heiress into a hug and rubbed her back. "She's going to be okay. I promise you that."

Weiss' tears began to fall, hitting Blake's shoulder. "B-But she couldn't have been hurt." Another sniffled was heard. "She just couldn't."

So I know I have more stories to work on, but this one is going to be a shorter and easier story to write for. I wanted to try my hand at a 3 shot (could be a bit more if I feel like adding stuff, but it won't be that long either). As you can tell, it's established Monochrome and in their second year at Beacon. Meaning V3's story does not occur in this AU.

Let me know how this is so far in terms of character's, pacing and emotions. I want this to be taken a bit more serious than other stories I work on, since while it was only for a bit there, the part with Weiss being drunk to 'solve' her problem, is a serious topic.

I hoped you all enjoyed chapter 1. Remember, reviews are welcomed, but not required. See you all in chapter 2.
