AN: In celebration of episode 10, here's a new chapter! OH GOD EPISODE 10. Pink Rose forever! *Ahem*
This was actually supposed to be a one-shot but more and more really fluffy ideas crept into my brain and this is the result. I actually still have one more fluff-filled chapter lined up with Team JNPR joining in so stay tuned. Thanks a lot to everyone else who reviewed and favorited, I really appreciate it, you're all awesome! I was really surprised with how many people favorited this and to all those lovely reviews, I can't thank you all enough.
Even more pointless White Rose and Bumblebee fluffiness ahead! Don't tell me I didn't warn you. I swear, all this RWBY is filling my head with enough sugar and fluff to last an entire year. There are also slight hints of FaunaBlake. Yes, I do believe that she's a fauna or part fauna. Cat ears under that bow anyone?
Reviews and criticism are always welcome so don't forget to review.
5:30 am
Blake's amber eyes automatically opened, her body used to waking up at exactly five thirty in the morning. Her eyes adjusted to the still dark room, only to be face-to-face with a softly snoring and drooling Yang.
Her body tensed immediately in response, startled at the supposed invasion of personal space and she had the slight urge to push the blonde away. However, she found that she couldn't move her arms as she was in Yang's tight embrace.
Remembering the events of last night, Blake reluctantly relaxed. She was still not so used to the idea of being so close to anyone especially when she was at her most vulnerable. However, she reminded herself that this was her partner. Blake would be stuck with Yang for the next four years of her life. She needed to trust Yang that she won't take advantage of the fact that she had seen Blake vulnerable.
Shaking her head a bit to clear her such thoughts, Blake tried to wriggle her way out. It was time for her daily meditation. Yang however had no plans on letting go as she tightened her grip. A squeak escaped from Blake's lips as she was uncomfortably crushed against Yang's ample chest. Her face heated up immediately in response to being unceremoniously buried in Yang's bosom.
"No… soft… mine…" Yang mumbled in her sleep as her brows creased slightly in a frown. Obviously, Yang treated her as a pillow and was completely unwilling to give her up. Blake breathlessly waited in stillness for Yang to at least loosen her grip.
Thankfully, the blonde fell back into deep sleep and her embrace loosened enough for the black-haired girl to back away a bit so that her face wasn't being crushed in the blonde's chest. She didn't dare try to get away from the embrace though. No doubt that Yang would crush her in her embrace again. The blonde was really a lot stronger than she looked.
Sighing a bit, Blake gave up with her usual morning routine as she settled back in Yang's embrace. It wasn't really so bad, it actually felt really nice to be embraced like this. Blake had very little experience with physical intimacy so this was a bit new to her so she was still a bit wary but she found herself liking it as she got used to it. Just not the part where Yang had all ability to cut off her air supply when she gets too enthusiastic with hugging.
Giving a mental shrug, she opted to enjoy this while it lasted. It was still too early to be awake for a day off, she'll catch up on her meditation next time. Besides, Yang was really warm and soft, and she smelled just like lilacs and a warm summer day. Blake moved her arms carefully before hesitantly placing them on Yang's waist and curling towards her. Blake just managed to catch a smile break on Yang's face as she closed her eyes.
6:00 am
When Weiss started to wake up from her deep slumber, she was mildly surprised to find that she actually slept well. She hadn't been getting much sleep the past few days since the horrible bunk beds idea and she basked in the refreshing feeling, a small contented smile tugging at her lips.
As the heiress continued to slowly go back to the waking world, she felt that her hand was in a comforting cocoon of warmth. Frowning slightly, she tried tugging her hand back. A sound suspiciously sounding like a cross between a grumble and whimper reached Weiss' ears. She frowned in confusion as that. What the hell was that? Curious, she finally opened her eyes to see what it was.
Weiss suddenly found herself staring at angry, blood-red eyes. She bit her tongue to keep herself from screaming in fright in the most unladylike manner. Thankfully though, the heiress' brain had awoken as well as she registered that she was staring at a familiar sleeping mask. Confusion and annoyance flitted in Weiss' ice blue eyes before she looked down, staring blankly at the obviously sleeping Ruby who happened to have her left hand clasped securely in her hands. What was Ruby doing in her bed? Why was she holding her hand?
Finally, Weiss remembered the events of last night, explaining why Ruby was currently asleep beside her. Finally allowing herself to relax, the heiress took a moment to observe the sleeping figure curled up towards her.
Ruby was still clutching to her hand in a way that made it look like she was protecting the most precious thing in the world. She held it reverently and close to her heart. Ruby herself looked peaceful, her face completely relaxed and even smiling a little. She didn't bother wearing her sleeping mask properly, giving Weiss a fright when that's the first thing she saw on top of Ruby's head.
For whatever reason, the scene made Weiss' cheeks warm up with a slight blush and she hesitated at tugging her hand back. Not that she could actually tug it back. When she tried, Ruby gave another cute puppy-like whimper, actually stopping Weiss.
Ruby looked so utterly adorable that it melted Weiss just a tiny bit, her normally icy blue eyes softening as she watched her partner slumber peacefully on, practically cuddling Weiss' hand. Realizing she was staring too intently at her adorable partner, Weiss snapped out of her reverie.
Giving out an aggravated sigh and a short shake of the head to clear her sudden bout of shyness, the heiress craned her neck to look at the newly installed wall-clock near their door. It was only six in the morning, plus today was a Saturday, a day-off from classes. It's still too early to be awake. Judging from the stillness of their shared room, the other two occupants are still most likely asleep. Might as well take advantage of more beauty sleep.
"You're such an idiot, you know." Weiss murmured as her free hand poked Ruby's cheek gently, a gentle smile taking over her face before she closed her eyes to sleep once more.
6:30 am
Yang felt the first rays of the sun on her closed eyelids and she grumbled lowly as she was reluctantly pulled into wakefulness. She was way too comfortable to be awake. Her pillow was really warm and really comfortable, plus it smelled really, really good. Absently, she nuzzled her pillow, only to be tickled by something fine and soft. Perplexed, a hand came to pat her pillow. The feeling of smooth silk was what greeted her, and she pursed her lips as she traced the contours of the silky thing.
Suddenly, Yang heard the small hum of what sounded like purring. Wait, what? Her pillow was purring? Was she hearing things? There was yet another sound of purring, a bit louder this time, and she was sure she felt the vibration somewhere near her chest, which would most likely be from her pillow.
Reluctantly, lilac eyes opened and saw the sight of Blake's silk bow, her fingers clasping it. Blinking owlishly, she looked down at her partner peacefully sleeping inside the protective cage of her embrace, making a soft purring sound that stopped when she pulled her hand back from her head.
"Oh." Her mouth formed a little 'o' shape as she realized what it was she was cuddling. Remembering the fact that they were down two beds because of last night's accident, Yang started to grin widely as she clamped on the urge to squeal in adoration.
'Thank you little sister for giving me the opportunity to cuddle in bed with my really hot, really adorable partner.' The blonde thought thankfully, hailing Ruby in her head as she looked down fondly at the sleeping Blake, looking relaxed and tranquil as she pressed against Yang's side.
How she wished she could get her phone and snap a picture of the unguarded Blake. She looked so adorable it should be a crime. Who would've ever believed that the usually cool and badass Blake was this adorable when she was asleep?
She mourned the fact that her phone was in her bag but she was so not getting out of bed because she was still sleepy and she had the most adorable thing in her arms. There was no way she was going to let this opportunity slip by! Especially since it was a day-off and she can spend a few more hours in bed with Blake. Yang carefully shifted her arms so that she can pull Blake even closer, basking in the soothing scent of lavender that came from her partner's silky black hair.
Yang didn't think that her smile could get any wider when Blake responded to the embrace, burrowing even closer, reminding the blonde of a cat she and Ruby once had and she was quick to imagine Blake as a cat. Yang could not suppress a soft chuckle when she imagined Blake's bow as cat ears.
With that last thought of Blake with cute kitty ears, Yang placed a soft kiss on top of her partner's head. There was a faint smile on Blake's face at the gesture, and Yang positively melted.
"Goodnight, kitty cat." She murmured as her eyes slid shut to sleep once more.
7:00 am
Ruby felt really, really happy as she received a giant plate-sized, triple chocolate chip cookie. It was her reward from the great princess of Cookieland, who for some reason greatly resembled Weiss and was even called Weiss Chocochip.
"Thank you, Sir Knight, for saving my kingdom." Princess Weiss smiled widely at her, her blue eyes sincere. Ruby absently wished that Weiss would smile like that more often.
"All in a day's work princess." Ruby grinned proudly. "Thanks for the reward!" She then started hugging the giant cookie, practically cuddling it to her face in true happiness.
Ruby however was a little confused when instead of the hard and rough surface of the cookie, she felt something warm and soft on her cheek as she cuddled her reward. Blinking, the scene started to melt away and her silver eyes opened to gentle sunlight.
A dream..? She wondered even as the soft and warm sensation didn't leave her cheek. Her eyes focused on the scene in front of her and was greeted by the slumbering face of one Weiss Schnee. She then realized that she wasn't in her make-shift canopy bed and that her partner was sleeping beside her and that Ruby had been cuddling Weiss' hand to her face for the past few minutes.
Panicking a bit as her face flushed in absolute embarrassment, the fifteen-year old let Weiss' hand go, feeling a confusing bit of disappointment at the sudden lack of warmth. Ruby's mind raced to remember what happened last night. Did they have a party or something? That she got so drunk that instead of climbing up her bed, she'd crashed in Weiss's?
Wait… Speaking of crashing… Oh that's right! Now she remembered! The ropes that held her bed snapped last night, making it crash down on Weiss' bed so they were forced to share Yang's bed. She winced a bit in guilt as she remembered her brilliant idea but was really glad that Weiss didn't get hurt. Her partner even saved her from being hurt as well.
Calming down so that at least she won't disturb the still slumbering Weiss, silver eyes softened at the sight of Weiss' face that actually had a small smile. Even though lately, Weiss didn't scowl or frown as much, it was still quite a treat to see her smile. It only made her even more beautiful in Ruby's opinion.
Ruby took this opportunity to openly admire the delicate slopes of Weiss' pretty face without the other girl knowing. She did look like a beautiful princess from a fairy tale. No wonder Ruby kept dreaming about her partner as a princess and embarrassingly enough, she often dreamt of herself as a faithful knight. Maybe she had been reading way too many fantasy books lately as Blake allowed her access to her extensive collection.
Without thinking, Ruby's hand came forward to trace the scar that marred Weiss' perfection. She had always wondered how she had gotten it but never asked because her partner might just explode. Maybe when they get even closer, soon perhaps. Ruby's lips curled into a smile as she thought of being closer to Weiss. The idea that she would become Weiss' close friend sent a heavy dose of warmth through her body, and it made her really excited.
Tentatively, she laced their fingers together. Weiss didn't wake but instead it was though her smile widened just a tiny bit, enjoying the warmth of their hands together.
"Thanks for everything Weiss." Ruby whispered as she returned to slumber with a broad smile.
