"Hahh...hah..hah..n-no..", I moaned under my breath. My heart raced like crazy, my mind was in a daze with how exhausted I was getting. My face was just about as red as my cape. It was getting harder to focus as I got closer and closer to my limit. 'I can't hold on much longer...Blake...' My thoughts turned to my faunest partner, and friend. I turned to find her, but her image disappeared in a flash, then I yelped as I found myself on my back on the floor, staring back up into yellow, feline eyes. They seemed to pierce right into me, like a predator finally catching it's prey. My arms were tied at my back, probably just before I fell. I was helpless, able to do nothing but stare back at Blake's hungry eyes...
...And at the point of her blade inches from my face.
"I..I submit..", the words left my mouth, defeated.
"Wonderful battle, miss Belladonna. You're skills are impressive as always." A man's voice came from somewhere. "Miss Rose, I hope you've learned something after your sixth loss against your team member. Doing the same thing will only give the same result!" It was Ozpin, overseeing our sparring class.
Blake's gaze lingered on me for a moment before she sheathed her Gambol Shroud. "Thank you, sir..." She replied, while I turned my head to the side. My Crescent Rose was there, knocked from my hands during the fight. "Sorry...I'll do better next time.." I answered, then looked up to the feline faunest. "Blake...can you help, please?", I asked her, wiggling my tied up arms. She had used her ribbon and immobilized them...oddly enough, I never saw her use that tactic on anyone but me...
Blake showed a barely visible hint of a smile and freed me, then helped me up. "Thanks Blake. I really need work on my moves...", I said, picking up my scythe. I wiped away the sweat on my brow. I felt her eyes on me then...it was weird, but I occasionally felt her looking at me intensely when I couldn't see. "No problem, Ruby. On the plus side, you did last a bit longer."
Before I could retort, Ozpin started talking to the class. "All right, that will be all for class today. Dismissed!" Blake and I looked at each other, then we both went to leave. "I'm going back to the dorm.", Blake started, "What about you?" I saw Yang leave before us, then remembered something I had to do. "Yang asked me for help with an assignment, but I'll be back pretty soon. I think Weiss was supposed to be gone all night though..." I forgot what it was for. "I'll see you later, then.", Blake said, with a tinge of disappointment in her voice, then left.
I felt bad to leave her alone. She always seemed to perk up when I was around...
"Thanks for the help, sis!", Yang ruffled my hair, and I pushed her hand away. "Geez, learn to do your own homework! I'll be heading back to the dorm now..." I started to leave, but she stopped me for a moment with an odd question. "Hey, Ruby...what do you think of Blake?" "What do you mean by that..? Is there something wrong?", I answered, confused. She seemed like she wanted to know something, but then shook her head. "Ahh, never mind. Forget I said anything. Cya!" She shoved me away from her, and I left even more confused than before.
'What was she talking about..? It's like she wanted to know if i...like-liked Blake or something..' , I thought to myself, blushing a bit. 'I mean, she is pretty, and I guess I do kinda like her, but I don't know if I'd call it love or-'
I was in the middle of opening my dorm room door when I saw Blake near the entrance inside. I blushed slightly and my thoughts got jumbled. "H-hi there, Blake...", I stuttered, looking like a red idiot. She nodded, not sure what to make of my weird reaction. "Welcome back. There's still hot water for the shower if you like." She went back to her bed with her book, already in her pyjamas. "Oh, thanks. I'll get right on it..." I quickly grabbed my own pyjamas and brought them into the bathroom with me. I had sweat a lot earlier, and I was dying to feel fresh again.
The water felt heavenly on my aching muscles. It wasn't really that bad...Blake always seemed to avoid actually hitting me. I looked at my wrists and noticed what marks she did leave: lines where Blake would tie her ribbon. It occurred to me that they never actually hurt, only restrained me... "I wonder...it feels like she's taking care not to hurt me...I guess can ask, and thank her while I'm at it."
I picked up my soap and lathered up, scrubbing the dirt off my body. Once again, I felt like I was being watched, though it was impossible to tell for sure. 'I...I guess it's okay if it's just Blake...' , I thought to myself, cleaning my chest. I decided to ignore my stiffening nipples, the result of my self-consciousness. 'Oh, what's happening to me..? There's no way Blake likes me that way...that's right, she's just looking after her team leader!' I shook my head, trying to forget my sudden rushing feelings. 'Heart still beating fast...whatever, bout' time I got out..' I turned the water off, and with that, I stopped feeling eyes on me. I sighed in relief, but my body still felt hot...I knew it wasn't from the shower either.
I quickly dried myself off. I put on my pink button-up pyjamas and brushed my hair down. The red tips flicked up at the end, even if they were wet just moments ago. I gave up trying to fix it years ago.
When I left the bathroom, I made eye contact with Blake for a moment. She had her bow off, letting her little kitty ears free as she lay on her bed, reading a book. She was already in her sleepwear, a black tank top and black boxer-shorts. I thought about how pretty she looked, then shook my head, hoping to dear god I wasn't blushing. "I, uh...Thanks for, you know...", I started, suddenly having a blank on how to say it. "..for being delicate with me, like, not bruising or hitting me..." Blake's ear twitched slightly. She looked surprised. "Y-you noticed? I-I mean, don't mention it, Ruby...I don't like hurting you." '..But you like tying me up..?'
The dark-haired girl sat up, eying me as I was getting a little flustered over nothing. I felt like she could sense every one of my little tics when she looked at me. I saw her scratch her head a bit. "Is there anything I can help you with?", she asked me, and I thought I heard a slight difference of tone in her voice. Her hands seemed to grip the edge of her bed, and I could've sworn her pupils dilated a bit, but it must've been my imagination or nervousness. "I-I'm fine, thanks. I'm just gonna...lie down.", I answered with some awkwardness, then turned to climb up the top bunk onto my bed. I felt the fabric of my clothes rub uncomfortably on my skin, and when I looked down, I almost died of embarrassment. 'No way, my nipples couldn't have been..!' I wanted to scream into my pillow. My little peaks were probably standing proudly for all to see, and Blake just had a perfect view of them. There was no denying that my face was redder than a tomato. I buried it in my pillow. 'I can't believe it...I just made myself look like some perverted idiot! Stupid, stupid, stupid...!'
Suddenly, I felt the stare once again. I was going to turn around when I felt someone put my hands at my back really quickly. I felt a very familiar feeling of helplessness, and I couldn't move. "W-what the..!? L-let go, I..!-" I was turned then, and the first thing I saw was a deep hunger and yearning in piercing, animalistic eyes. They belonged to Blake, and I could hear, or feel, the constant mix of a growl and purr. I'd never seen her demeanor change so drastically. "B-Blake...? W-what...I don't...but..!"
"Rrrrrrr...~ Ruby...I can't...I just can't hold it in anymore...hah..." She was panting, her face was flushed. "Your shampoo...your damp hair...your scent..I just can't get enough..ggrrrrrrr!~" Blake suddenly hugged me tight with her face at my neck. "M-meep! H-hyaa..!~ B-Blake, wait...! M-mmmhhnnnggg...!~" My eyes shut as I let out a moan. Her breath was hot on my skin, and I could feel her just inhaling. I squeezed my legs together reflexively and lay there, waiting for Blake to be satisfied. Her panting only seemed to be getting heavier, and when she finally pulled back, I could see how aroused she looked. "Ruby...Ruby..! I want...I want to..I need to..~" The tension seemed unbearable to her, but I couldn't see why. "W-what do you need..? I-I'll do it, s-so please...you look like you're in pain..!", I told her. I just couldn't stand to see her like this, like I was causing it without knowing it.
Her eyes flashed and focused on mine, her mind barely keeping her body in check. "Oh, Ruby..! I need you to say it...please..!~ Tell me...c-can I make you..m-mine..?"
My heart melted at that moment. She was doing all she could just to ask permission...it was heartwarming, cute and adorable all at the same time. I made up my mind that moment, and I knew there'd be no turning back. I nodded yes to her. "M-mhm...y-you can do whatever you like...a-as long as you're gentle...I-I submit to you, Blake...~" I barely had a moment to prepare before she took my lips with hers. Warm tears streamed down her cheeks as she kissed me in pure gratitude. She was rather rough, biting my lip occasionally and gripping my hair. I tried my best to kiss her back, but it was my first, so I was clueless about how it worked. "M-mmm...nnn..mmmh..!~ Mmmhh..hah..hyah..Blake..." She licked her lips, then nipped my ear. "Kyaa!~" I blushed deep red, wanting to cover my mouth. "Purrrr~...you taste sweet, like chocolate chip cookies~", Blake whispered in my ear, sending chills down my spine. My body was on fire, and I was getting desperate for release...though I've honestly never experienced it.
Blake, as if reading my thoughts, straddled herself on me and started unbuttoning my top. I looked away, embarrassed at how hungrily she looked at my body. She could finally see my chest, but I was afraid she'd be disappointed...I wasn't as impressive as Yang and-
"A-aahh..!~ Nn-nnnh..!~" I moaned a little loudly as the faunest placed her hands on my bare hips. Her hands were hot on my skin, and she started feeling me up, tracing up to my C-cup breasts. I was biting my lip at how sensitive I felt, and I couldn't bear to watch. My heartbeat quickened as Blake's mouth neared my peaks, her breath sweetly tickling my skin. "Hah...hyah..hah...Blake..? What..HYAAAANNNGGHH!~" I moaned loudly and bit my lip hard. My body was on fire, rising up to something great. I felt something coming, so close, I was scared, happy, so happy, it was coming so fast.
My vision was going white when I saw Blake's ear twitch, and everything stopped. I made a sad sigh as everything slowed down, my release halted at the precipice of pleasure. "N-nooo..Blake..?", I whined, seeing her move around quickly. My vision cleared and I realized my clothes were proper again, my arms free again. Blake was back in her bed and reading. I looked at her, my eyes on the verge of tears, when I heard the door open, familiar voices coming in.
"Ugh, really Yang? That's the best you could come up with? Even I could do better! Which I usually do~" Weiss entered the room along with my sister, and I decided it'd be best if I pretended to be asleep. 'Damnit, damnit, damnit...I was so close! Stupid Weiss and sis!' I was so frustrated now, but it couldn't be helped.
I turned to my side, and my eyes lit up. There was a little plastic gift pouch with cookies and a tiny note. It said:
Sorry Ruby! :'( I'll make it up to you tomorrow! -Blake
I broke into a smile. I guess I had something to look forward to tomorrow!
