It was late afternoon at Beacon Academy. The four girls of team RWBY retired for the evening back to their dorm. Yang and Blake went straight to bed but Ruby decided to take a shower. When she had finished and came out of the bathroom, she noticed a look of distress on Weiss' face and saw a tear slowly fall down her pale cheeks. She was unsure what to do because of Weiss' strong nature. She approached her slowly and sat down next to her on her bed.

Ruby put a hand over Weiss' shoulder to console the poor girl. Weiss noticed and swatted her away. "I'm sorry Weiss. I was just trying to make you feel better." said Ruby. "I don't need your pity." said the irritated Weiss. "Will you come outside the room for a moment then?" Ruby patiently said. "Fine." They walked outside the room, seeing it was quiet and no one was around, Ruby motioned Weiss to sit next to her on the floor.

When she sat, Ruby looked into her bright, shiny eyes and stared for a moment. Weiss must have caught on because she snapped her fingers. "Oh, sorry..." muttered Ruby. The tears started to dry from Weiss' cheeks as she too examined the glistening silver eyes of her young leader. "It's fine Ruby." Weiss assured. They didn't know why, but they sat there staring at each other for just a moment longer. Ruby snapped out of it to bring up the question at hand. "So, Weiss, will you tell me what was bothering you?" "Oh it was nothing too serious. Don't worry yourself Ruby." said the heiress. "But, I do worry about you. Will you tell me please?" begged the younger girl. Weiss found herself dropping her prideful defenses ever so slowly in the presence of her wide-eyed leader. "If you want to know so bad…" She paused, not knowing if she should tell Ruby. "I guess I'll tell you."

Ruby's heart jumped as she heard the statement leave Weiss' perfect red lips. Ruby red. "I've been having slight problems in school, but I know I can do the work. I've had an awful distraction lately." Confused, Ruby wondered what it could possibly be. "I call it an awful distraction, but it's actually something, or rather someone, that's started to grow on me." Weiss paused for a moment, seeing if Ruby's expression was changing. Instead she saw a look of confusion.

"Ruby, it's you."

"What?"

"You're my distraction."

"I'm not sure what to say. Is that a good thing?"

"Ruby I don't know how you'll take this, but I want you to just hear me out. Over the past few weeks, I've started to get closer to you and you've started to make a change in my life for the best."

Ruby listened intently, her heartbeat only growing faster. "You're such a perfect girl to me, and sometimes I think, what if we never found each other during initiation? I could never ask for a better leader or teammate to have with me every day."

Ruby's cheeks were glowing red at this point, and Weiss noticed.

"Weiss… No one has ever said something so thoughtful to me. For me this is a dream come true, because I knew the day we met, I felt something special for you. Now that we've lived together for so long, I feel like I know a different side of you, and I kinda like it."

Weiss' cheeks also flooded a bright shade of red. "Thank you Weiss, I'm sorry for not saying anything to you sooner though. I feel like there's something I could have
done to-

Weiss cut her off abruptly with an extravagant kiss that blew happiness through Ruby's entire body. It was a short, but meaningful kiss that showed Ruby that Weiss really cared for her. Ruby was left with an urgent feeling for more.

Before Ruby could protest, the door of their room suddenly opened, revealing a sleepy cat-like Faunus.

"What are you two doing out in the hall?"

"Oh, nothing important Blake." Weiss said plainly.

"Well are you gonna come in?" They said yes, and hopped into bed, sharing the thought of loving their first kiss, and loving each other.
