Author's Corner: Hello everyone! My name is Sebi99cl and I shall be your host for today! This is a RWBY fic (How'd you figure that one out…) that is a major Ruby x Jaune, made for a fan of a page I admin. Reviews and comments are always accepted, and the rating is T, but WILL jump to M later on. Lemons in the third chapter likely. Enjoy...

His hands ran through her hair. The two were locked in a battle for mouth supremacy, neither one giving in. As the bed nearly gave way below them, a warmth grew inside him, threatening to cause him to explode. His ears, his mouth, his nose were filled with her. He wanted more, and so did she. Hands moved, bodies shook, tongues wrestled, and she pulled away, opening her mouth to speak, but he only heard a strange noise….

"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP."

Jaune Arc groaned, as he covered his head with his pillow to try to stifle out the infernal noise coming from the alarm on his scroll. All he wanted to do was go back to his dream, the one he had been enjoying so much. He'd been having the same dream constantly the past few months, and nothing he did could help. He'd tried sleeping pills, jogging,yoga, and, through Ren's suggestion, deep meditation, but none worked. He just couldn't get her out of his mind.

Finally succumbing to his annoyance, Jaune threw the pillow across the room and turned off the alarm. A yelp resulting from the landing site of the pillow drew his attention, and he turned to notice that his throwing of the pillow ended with the aforementioned object striking his teammate, Nora Valkyrie, in the head, causing Jaune to slap himself in the face.

"Sorry Nora," he began, "I didn't mean to thro-" Jaune's words were cut off by something white hitting his face, which he pulled off to discover that it was his own pillow. Looking up, he saw Nora with one of her signature "Get ready" smiles.

"Pillow fight!" she yelled, as she grabbed two more her hands and getting in a battle pose, before leaping for an attack just as Pyrrha opened the door, only to see Jaune, still in his footie pajamas, yelping as Nora continued to hit him with her pillow gauntlets. Nora was laughing hysterically, and Jaune was begging her to stop, so Pyrrha simply rolled her eyes and walked over to her bed, where she began to gather up her things. It was a Saturday, and team JNPR had decided to each have their own free day. Pyrrha was going to head down to see a Spruce Willis movie she had been raring to go to, but she couldn't convince Jaune to come along. Nora was apparently going to the newly opened pancake house, and she was forcing Ren to come along. And Jaune...well…

"Nora! Get off!" Jaune was squirming under Nora, trying to get out, as she finally calmed down and rolled off the bed, giggling. Jaune took at least five deep breaths, trying to calm himself down, when Ren walked out of the bathroom, still brushing his teeth and mumbling something. Nora stood up and walked over to him.

"Let's go, Ren, the place opens in three hours!" Grabbing Ren's hand, Nora started running, causing Ren to drop his toothbrush and get pulled out the door, looking at Jaune and Pyrrha with a look that says "You know what, screw it." As he went flying out the door, pulled on one arm by the hyperactive storm that is Nora, Pyrrha turned back to Jaune, rubbing her arm nervously.

"So, Jaune….you...sure you don't want to come to the Spruce Willis movie? I heard it's a sequel to Live Soft." Pyrrha, for a long time now, has had a crush on Jaune. Even though it was clearly painfully obvious to everybody, Jaune somehow just didn't have the capacity to see any of it, at least, in her eyes. Besides, Pyrrha thought, he's had his eyes on Weiss, so it seemed pointless to her. But damn it all if she wasn't going to try.

Jaune pushed himself up from the bed with his arms. He looked at his scroll, which showed the time to be 8 am. He sighed, then looked at Pyrrha.

"Sorry Pyrrha, I'm not up for it right now. Have fun!" Pyrrha smiled, nodded, and walked out, feeling slightly morose, as Jaune went to get ready. Heading to his room's shower, he took off his pajamas and took a rather long shower, lasting ten minutes, because he was constantly thinking about the girl in his dream. Jaune had met her when he arrived, and his heart was struck. All he wanted was to be with her, but it seemed impossible, him being so weak. As he finished showering, his thoughts never left her face.

Ruby Rose. Yes, since the moment he saw her, Jaune's heart was caught. It didn't matter that she practically emasculated him with her own weapon when they first met. Jaune, having grown up with seven sisters, felt as though Ruby was a change from that. She was cute, bouncy, and overall an amazing person for him. At first he couldn't tell what exactly he was feeling, but as soon as she started to invade his dreams, he knew. He knew that there was no other for him.

It's why he constantly tries to be around Weiss. His failed attempts at cajoling her into dating are simply a ruse for him to catch even glimpses of Ruby. Then the rumors about her and Weiss started to spread, and he took them to heart. He was devastated, thinking that yet again, his love was taken by another. This was the time when he trained the hardest, his sadness and anger leaving his body in the form of emotional beads of sweat, pumping out in buckets as he delivered blow after blow to the training dummies. Where he single-handedly obliterated at least fifteen Ursa dummies before Ozpin himself had a chat with him. Jaune wrapped a towel around his waist, grabbing his toothbrush, as he remembered the event.

"GRAHHH!"

A thunk can be heard around the training area, as Jaune Arc decapitates one more animatronic Ursa. He draws in long, bated breaths, as he returns his sword to its scabbard and recalls his shield into its folded-up state. His messy blonde hair is stuck to his scalp thanks to the sweat, and his clothing is almost soaked through, as he opted to wear a simple white shirt and black basketball shorts for training. Sitting down on the floor, he looked around, seeing all of the "body" parts scattered everywhere, sliced and diced into bits and pieces, when suddenly, the tapping of feet and a walking stick could be heard, as Ozpin, the Headmaster of Beacon, exited the shadows.

"Mr. Arc," he said, looking around the room with a mug of coffee in his left hand, "I see you have been hard at work perfecting your skills. Although you must know, these animatronics are not cheap to replace." Using his stick, Ozpin gently tapped on a severed mechanic arm, causing it to roll away slightly. Jaune sighed, putting his head between his knees as Ozpin came closer, looking down at the teen. Jaune looked up, as Ozpin took a sip of his coffee.

"Sorry, Professor Ozpin," Jaune said, standing up, "I've just….had a lot on my plate, that's all." He reached down to pick up his things, before starting to walk out of the training room, Ozpin's eyes following him, before Ozpin himself spoke.

"Girl troubles, I presume?" Jaune froze in his tracks, slowly turning around to face Ozpin.

"How did you know?"

"My dear boy," Ozpin chuckled, "I was once your age, believe it or not. Myself and a few of my companions had the same struggle as you did. I promise you, when you're older, your decision during this time affects you more than you think." Jaune stood still for a second, then turned to fully face Ozpin.

"Professor, how did you deal with this?" Jaune asked. Ozpin sighed and lowered his gaze to the floor.

"Not a day goes by when I don't think of it," Ozpin said, his voice filled with sadness before looking back up at Jaune, "Let me give you some advice, Mr. Arc. Find a way to tell her now. It will be too late before you know it." Ozpin smiled, then drank out of his cup again, as Jaune looked down at the floor, contemplating what Ozpin just said.

"Th-thanks, professor," he said, turning around again, "I'll do my best." Ozpin nodded once in approval, as Jaune started walking to the locker rooms. As he went through the door, he could have sworn he heard Ozpin give one short, yet audible, sob.

A knock at the door brought Jaune back to his senses, his toothbrush half out of his mouth, a small amount of blue paste dripping down his chin. Quickly rinsing out his mouth and wiping down his chin, he went to the door, a pink towel still wrapped around his waist, and opened the door, only to see none other than Ruby herself. Jaune, startled, nearly dropped the towel, and Ruby took a step back, her hands in front of her.

"Woah, sorry Jaune," she apologized, "I was just coming to see if you wanted to do something today, but if you're busy, I'll come back later." Jaune, too dumbfounded to speak, simply saw the girl he considered the love of his life walk right back across the hall, into her own dorm. Frustrated, he closed the door, sat on his bed, and put his head in his hands.

"Smooth, Arc."

And there you go, first chapter! Sorry if it was a bit short, it is the exposition, after all. Again, reviews, recommendations, and comments are greatly appreciated!
