So here's the next part of Facade. If you guys are just tuning in. Last part, I left you guys on a bit of a tense cliffhanger somewhat. Now we're dealing the aftermath of last night.
Word of warning, this MAY end up becoming a Three-Parter instead of a two-shot. We'll know by the end of this. But regardless, I hope you guys still enjoy it in the end.
If nothing else, let's get this thing started.

The next morning broke out, as sunlight started to shine into the room of one Yang Xiao Long. The blonde winced, and turned away. Hoping to get away from the intrusive beams and hopefully get more sleep. Unfortunately, it didn't seem like she would get that chance.
Realizing that that she was not going to go back to sleep anytime soon. She sighed as she sat up in her bed. But just as she did so, it proved to be a mistake. As she was hit with not only a headache, but also a numbing pain in her gut. Confused as to what that was, she lifted up her shirt and was surprised to see a large bruise on her stomach. And from her knowledge as a fighter. It told her that it was an expert kick.
"But how did I…" Memories of last night's events slowly started to come back to her "Oh...yeah."
-X-
"Hey! Xiao Long!"
Yang had been at the bar, in the middle of having a drink. When she heard someone call her out. She looked over her shoulder to see Melanie Malachite glaring venomously at her. She internally sighed, she was in no mood for any shit at the moment.
"What?"
"What the hell happened between you and sis?!"
The blonde teen raised a brow "Who?" until it took a few seconds for her realize exactly who the girl was talking about "Oh." She snorted out a dry laugh "What about 'her'?" She made sure to emphasize: Her.
Melanie's glare hardened as she tightened her balled up fists.
"Whatever you did turned Ruby into an absolute mess! She practically ran out of the club in tears!"
By that point a small crowd started to form around the two. To see what was going on. But neither girl paid them any mind. Yang sighed and fully turned around to face the white dress clad Malachite twin, her drink now forgotten.
"And, what does that matter to me? You're saying she's heartbroken? Good, now she knows how I'm feeling."
Now this was probably the booze making her talk like this. But at that point, Yang didn't care anymore. All she wanted to do was to be left alone for the rest of the night. And unfortunately, from the murderous look that girl seemed to be giving her. It seemed that she wasn't going to be getting her wish anytime soon.
Heedless of the thin ice she was standing on, she continued "On another note, I've noticed that you've been calling Ruby, Sis, a lot. You sure you wanna keep calling her that? After all, she seems to 'packing' quite the secrets behind her."
"What me and my sister call Rubes is none of your business."
"And just like that, what happened between me and your sister is none of your business."
The air grew tense as the now larger crowd waited on bated breath. Wondering if a fight was going to ensue between the two women. Melanie clenched and unclenched her hands. Trying to calm herself from trying to cause to big a scene. Suddenly she let out a sigh.
"You know what? Fuck this."
-x-
To say Kenny was surprised would have been an understatement. After all, it's rare that you see a blonde teenage girl flying clear past you, out of the club entrance. People watching this scene was shocked to see the girl tumble and slam brutally into the side of a parked car.
Yang coughed, struggling to stand as she clutched her now hurting stomach. One lilac eye opened up and glared at the dolled up girl casually walking out of the club. A hard glare on her features as well.
"It may not even come close to the pain you inflicted tonight. But I'll be damned if that didn't feel good." Melanie said, folding her arms.
Yang opened her mouth to say something. But a sharp pain from where she had been kick shot throughout her body. It didn't help that she was feeling disoriented due to all the heavy drinks she had consumed earlier. A small part also reasoned it was how the girl had been able to literally kick her out of the club just now.
Melanie unfolded her arms "Until you get you fucking shit resolved. I better not see your ass around here again!" She then turned to Kenny "Until this bitch get's HER permission. Don't let her in."
"You got it." The muscular man said in a gruff voice.
With that Melanie disappeared back into Junior's club. Yang groaned, finally standing up straight. Meeting the bouncer's gaze with her own, she sighed before starting off. With the intention of heading home. She ignored the gaze of people on the line who were still waiting to get into the club. Unfortunately for one (rather stupid) girl, she had decided to snicker to herself and make a slick comment under her breath. A comment that Yang heard.
"Yet another drunk bimbo gets thrown out on her ass. And it looks like a blondie this time around."
The next thing the brunette knew, she was pulled roughly by her short hair. And was staring face to face with an extremely pissed off Yang.
"I'm sorry," Yang said, her tone low but murderous "CARE TO REPEAT THAT?!"
"Nonono, I'm sorry! Please!" The brunette cried frantically, frightened by the angry girl in her face.
Yang paused as she took in the anxious woman's face. For a brief moment, the woman's face flashing to Ruby's. Before she could do anything however, she felt a large hand on her shoulder. And she looked up to see Ken standing behind her. With a look that almost dared her to continue with what she was about to do.
With another sigh escaping her, she let go of the terrified woman and shrugged off the now loosened grip. Walking off into the night without so much as a glance back towards the club.
-X-
A frown had appeared on Yang's face by the time the memory ended.
"Resolve your shit," she muttered before snorting "Resolve what? It's her...his fault that he lied to me."
She sat on the side of her bed and stretched, letting out a huge yawn in the process. She grabbed her scroll to check the time. But as soon as she did, her eyes widened at her lock screen.
On the screen, was a photo that Yang had taken a while back. It was a picture of her...with Ruby. The two of them inside a park with the blonde having the smaller teen in her arms while in the midst of peppering her with kisses. While the girl...boy...in question had a look of giggling joy on their face.
Now one would think, after the events that had transpired last night. Anger would be the initial emotion to overtake Yang upon seeing this picture. But all the blonde felt was a numbing wave of sorrow. Pulling her knees up to her chest, she hugged herself close while her grip on her scroll tightened.
"Why…?" She whispered sadly "Why couldn't have you been the one?"
She clutched her face, as she felt tears running down her cheeks.
"Why. . ."
-X-
"Sorry I'm late. *Pant* Did I keep you waiting long?"
Yang harbored a slightly worrisome look on her face. But soon melted as her intended date smiled at her. Standing up from the bench was Ruby, dressed in a simple red t-shirt, blue form hugging jeans, and a pair of black and white converse.
Pocketing her scroll, she hugged the winded blonde "Nope." She said, popping the 'P' "You haven't I've only been here for a little while myself."
"I'm glad," Yang returned the hug "I had been so nervous about today. I lost track of time." She whispered under her breath "I really want this to work this time."
Whether or not Ruby had heard her. The smaller teen ignored it as she placed a gentle hand on the blonde's cheek. Caressing her smooth skin softly. "Hey, it's okay, I'm not upset or anything. Truth be told, I'm was nervous as well. This is my first date after all."
Yang was taken by surprise by that "Wait overall?" She hadn't known that. She had assumed that Ruby had at least been a few other dates in her past.
Ruby smiled softly and shook her head.
"So I'm your first?" Yang asked, to which Ruby nodded yes.
"Mhm, so I'm trusting you to take the lead today." She gave a playful wink "Alright?"
A small blush worked it's way onto Yang's face "S-Sure."
"Great! Now there's only one important thing left to do before we start."
Yang had a genuine confused look "There is?" She asked with a raised brow "What?"
"A picture of course." Ruby beamed while pulling out her scroll "I figured that a best way to celebrate our first date. Would be to take a commemorative photo."
Ruby then blinked as she noticed Yang simply staring at her. "Oh but...we don't have to, if you're not okay with that. Um...uh, actually y-y'know forget it. It was a silly-"
"Ruby relaxed, it's fine. I'm actually all for it." Yang told the shorter girl, effectively calming her as she pulled the crimsonette into a loving embrace. The girl had a hopeful look.
"Really?"
Yang only nodded and got into position for them to take their pictures. Ruby and Yang stretched out their arms; with their respective scrolls in hand. Poised and ready to snap the picture. Soon a mischievous thought appeared in Ruby's mind.
"Okay ready?" Yang asked, Ruby didn't respond but smiled and nodded
"Okay, on 3; 1. . . 2. . ."
"3-"
*Chu~*
Yang froze, a huge blush forming on her face as she felt the softness of Ruby's lips plant themselves on her cheek. Ruby mentally giggled as she clicked the button on her scroll to take the picture. After a few more seconds, Ruby removed herself from Yang. Much to the blonde's secret displeasure.
Ruby was harboring a smug grin as she inspected the photo she managed to take. "Well I think this is wallpaper worthy. Wouldn't you agree?"
"I-I you...j-just."
"Oh my, did I managed to render the Yang Xiao Long speechless? Wonders never cease."
She giggled at the blonde's puffed cheek.
"Why you…!"
Ruby squealed as she found herself trapped in the blonde's firm clutches. Next thing, a shower of kisses started occurring all over her face and neck. Making the redhead squirm playfully.
"Ah! Yang no! Stop!" Ruby giggled "Your kisses are tickling me!"
Ruby was so distracted by the loving assault, she failed to noticed Yang taking out her scroll and snapping a photo of the squirming girl.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity. Yang released her prisoner, who was breathing heavily.
"Had enough?" She questioned, the smugness in her tone present
Ruby glared at the blonde, though it was more of a cute pout. "Meanie…" she muttered before crossing her arms, and turning away from her date "Just for that, no more kisses or hugs from me for the rest of the day."
"Huh?!" Yang exclaimed in shock as she uncharacteristically flailed her arms "N-No wait! Don't do that, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry!"
Ruby peaked at Yang through one eye and smirked. Silently giggling at the groveling girl. Obviously she wasn't really mad, but she wanted to see the blonde squirm for a bit.
Schooling her features, she started walking away "Hm well… I GUESS if you buy me a snack. I might forgive you." She smirked at the stunned blonde
"W-Wha?! B-But-"
"C'mon, time's a wastin'. We got a date ahead of us." Ruby stated, sticking her tongue out at the dumbfounded blonde.
-X-
A tearful smile appeared on Yang's face as she recalled that wonderful memory. The date that followed that meeting had been a lot of fun. Quite possibly the best one she's had in years.
The smile soon disappeared, replaced with a look of pain sorrow as Yang covered her face in her hands. Trying to inevitably stop the tears from flowing once again.
"Why...why did you lie to me Ruby?" She uttered out brokenly "I honestly thought you were different from them. I had hoped that you would've been different from them."
Just then, Yang's scroll started ringing. Causing the teenage girl to jump up in surprise. Wiping her tears, she looked at the Caller ID. And her lilac eyes widened at the person who was calling.
Despite that, she answered, and tentatively brought the scroll up to her ears. Just in time to hear the caller speak.
"Hello Yang, how have you been?"
"Velvet?" Yang couldn't hide her shock "Why are you calling?"
-X-
Meanwhile, during that time, within his bedroom Garnet was slowly starting to stir out of his slumber as well. The crimsonette stifled a yawn and stretched only to feel some slight constriction on his bed. Confused, he pulled the covers to see Militia, dressed in a red nightgown, sound asleep next to him.
Naturally the teen was surprised "Milly?!" He exclaimed, rousting the girl from her sleep.
The short haired girl slowly rubbed her eyes before sending a small smile towards Garnet "Mornin'." She greeted softly
"Baby, what are you doing here?"
The smile vanished and was replaced with a serious look "After what had happened with Yang…" She winced when she saw Garnet unconsciously flinched at the reminder "You seemed pretty torn up about what had happened. I. . .didn't want to leave you like that. So, after some pleading with your brother. I had Melanie bring some stuff from home and we both spent the night here."
"We?"
It was then Garnet noticed there was another person in his bed when he felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist. Glancing over his shoulder, Garnet saw Melanie fast asleep behind him, rubbing her arm. Melanie shifted before she started to stir awake. Her eyes fluttered open and she glanced down at Garnet."
"Morning Ruby...oops, I mean Garnet."
A small smiled formed on Garnet's face as he moved his arm to rub Melanie's head. "Morning…"
Garnet sat up and stretched his arms again. The twins following shortly. Melanie placed a comforting hand on Garnet's shoulder and gave the young teen a tender smile.
"Not sure if it means anything. But I'm sorry for what happened last nights." she said softly "You didn't have to go through that."
"Ah it's fine," Garnet waved off slightly "To be honest, something told me that, that would happen. So I'm not really bothered by it anymore."
"But that still doesn't excuse what she said to you!" Militia exclaimed hotly "Even if she was mad, that didn't give her the right to-"
"It gave her every right Militia." Garnet interrupted calmly "As painful as it is to admit it, Yang was right. I did lie to her, but more importantly. I betrayed her trust. You girls know how horrible that is. Having the your trust broken someone you cared about."
The crimsonette brought his knees up to his chest. Giving each of the girls a waning smile. "If that didn't give her the right to blow up at me like she did. What did then?"
The twins wanted to refute that, to speak up and reassure Garnet that that wasn't the case. But deep down they knew he was right. Despite being a boy, Garnet knew full well the sensitivity of a girl's heart when it came to things like betrayal and lying. A topic no girl, regardless of how strong willed they were, ever wanted to deal with in their life. And for Garnet, he now understood the repercussions of such an act. They just wished he didn't suffer as severely as he did.
Militia then wrapped her arms around Garnet's waist. Pulling the smaller teen into a comforting embrace. Melanie also joined in, wrapping her arms around Garnet's neck. Nuzzling the boy's cheek against her own. Garnet smiled, melting into the warm embrace.
"Thanks girls, I don't know what I'd do without you."
"Think nothing of it Garnet." Replied the twins in unison "You're always there for us when we need it. It's only right, that we be here for you."
The redhead's smile only grew larger as he pulled the girls closer to him. For the remainder of the morning. The three of them stayed like that in blissful silence.
-X-
"Thanks for agreeing to help me with my photo assignment Yang."
"Huh? Oh, no problem. Glad I could help."
Velvet frowned at the dejected response she gotten from the blonde in front of her. After her impromptu call to Yang earlier. The brunette had asked if she have Yang pose for a couple of pictures for her. That, and she had wanted a chance to reconnect with her friend after a year of not speaking. But after Yang had arrived at their meet-up spot. It didn't take much for Scarlatina to realize that there was something wrong with Yang. No matter how much she tried to hide it.
"Soo," Began Velvet tentatively "How have you been lately Yang?"
"I've been...doing okay."
Velvet didn't miss the slight pause in her tone. "Okay, that's good." She said, snapping another photo.
After another minute of awkward silence, Yang let out a sigh. "Velvet is there a reason that I'm out here?"
"Hm?" Velvet looked up from her camera "What do you mean?"
"We haven't spoken to each other in over a year. Ever since that happened. And now all of a sudden. You call me to help you, and 'reconnect'." Yang told her calmly, "Seriously Vel, it doesn't take much to know that there's another reason you brought me out here."
The blonde was rewarded with a loose sigh from the brunette. "I suppose you're right Xiao Long." Velvet spoke, "Why don't we take a break? I saw a nice desserts cafe on my way here. Come on, my treat."
Yang allowed a faint smile on her face. Unable to resist sweets of any kind. "Sure."
-x-
"To be honest, I had called you up because I had wanted to see how you've been ever since the your break-up with my cousin." Velvet said, keeping her gaze at the cup in her hands "I...know, I didn't really try to reach out to you after that. But I was really worried about, especially after what she did."
Yang 'Hm'd' as she stared into her drink. "I see...well, you didn't have to do all of that. A simple call would've done it." She said quietly
"Yang?" The blonde looked up to see a look of concern on Velvet's face "Is there something wrong?"
"What? No! Nothing's wrong. I'm just...thinking about a few things, that's all."
"Yang," Velvet deadpanned "I don't think I need to tell you how much of a lie that is at the moment now, do I?"
Yang tensed and didn't attempt to meet the woman's gaze. Knowing full well that Velvet was right. But that didn't mean she wanted to deal with it right now.
"Okay, maybe I do have a few issues going on at the moment. But they're not really a big deal. You don't have to bother yourself with them."
"Mhm, is that you're on your third order of blueberry pie?" Velvet questioned, pointing to the delicious half-eaten treat on the blonde's plate. "Unless your coping methods have changed over the last year. I know for a fact that you always have blueberry pies whenever you're extremely upset about something. So tell me, what happened?"
Yang cursed under her breath, almost glaring at the betraying dessert sitting innocently on the table. Finally looking up to meet the brunette's stern but concerned gaze. Yang let out a defeated sigh.
"I. . .had a pretty rough night last night." She told her
"What happened?"
". . .It was a girl I had been dating."
"Oh no…" Velvet muttered, sympathy in her voice. She didn't need to know more to already know where this route was going to go.
"We've been dating for...I guess this month would've made seven." Yang let out a low 'Hmph' "She was perfect Velv; Kind, sweet, caring, cute as hell too. She always managed to brighten up my day. No matter how angry or down I was. She would stop what she was doing to make sure I was doing okay." Yang took out her scroll, showing a picture of Ruby. Velvet took it and had a look for herself.
Yang wasn't kidding when she said that this Ruby girl was pretty. Short dark crimson red hair framing nicely around her slightly chubby face. And a pair of wide silver eyes that just scream energetic innocence.
"She's pretty." Velvet commented almost automatically "So...what was the problem? Did you two have a falling out?"
"No. Never had an argument with her. If we did, it was never serious."
Velvet raised a brow "Did she cheat on you?"
Yang shook her head once again "As loyal and faithful as they came. You couldn't ask for a better girlfriend."
Okay, so an affair was out. Velvet was racking her brain; trying her hardest to figure out what could have possibly have been the reason that she had broken up with this girl. As far as she could tell, this Ruby girl sounded like a keeper. Unless…
Velvet's eyes widened as a hand shot to her mouth in horror "Oh my, I'm so sorry Yang. I didn't know."
"Huh?" Yang blinked in confusion "What are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about Ruby, she passed on didn't she? How long ago was it?"
"Passed on… Wait What?! NO! Ruby isn't dead!" Yang stated alarmed, wondering where the hell that came from. "I was just with her last night, as far as I know. She's still amongst the living!"
"Oh…" Velvet blinked, "I see, that's good I guess." They was a bit of an awkward silence between the two girls, until Velvet shook her head "I give up Yang, I can't seem to figure out what was the problem between you two. As far as I know, you had a real keeper in your hands."
Yang snorted "Yeah, I thought I did too. Only to realize that HE wasn't what he appeared to be."
Velvet's cup paused mere inches from her mouth as she regarded the blonde with a narrowed look "...Pardon?"
Yang leaned her head into her hand and tapped the scroll "Apparently, Ruby was actually a Reuben or whatever."
Velvet blinked slowly "You're joking…" She quickly looked at the picture again "Where?! I can't see it!"
"I know, I didn't believe it either...until he proved it to me." She muttered bitterly, downing the rest of her mocha in one go. "God, I can't believe my shitty luck. The one time I meet a girl and I think she's the one. It turns out to be a fucking guy." She snorted "What are the fucking odds?"
Velvet was silent for a few moments before speaking up "Yang, now I maybe jumping to conclusions here. But, don't you think that you might be overreacting a bit?"
Yang's reaction was immediate as she regarded her friend with a look of disbelief "Overreacting?! Velv, he crossdressed and pretended making me think that he was a girl. How was I supposed to react?!"
"I'm not saying that you didn't have a right to be upset." Velvet stated calmly "But at the same time, maybe you could be a bit rational about this."
"Rational?! He lied to me!" Yang nearly shouted,
"True, but to be fair; try to look at it from Ruby's perspective." Yang was quiet as Velvet continued "Ruby donned the personality of girl. Why? We don't know. Maybe he had wishes to transition into a full-fledged girl. Or maybe he was one the genderfluid types, who can say."
Yang raised a brow "Gender what?"
"Genderfluid," Velvet clarified "It's a common term used for people who fully embraces both types of genders."
"You mean effeminate boys and tomboyish girls?" Yang wondered
Velvet had contemplative look, as she made a weighing motion with her hand "Nn, something like that; what it is, is that. When it comes to those who are genderfluid. They deem themselves as those who don't really have a set gender. For example, in a woman's case; they may be completely normal. But on certain days, they may decide to fully embrace being a boy as if they were born as one. The case is the same for men as well. One day they're a man, but for the next few days, they can suddenly end up acting like a woman."
"I see," Muttered Yang "So are you saying that Garnet may be one of those genderfluid types?"
"Who can say?" Velvet shrugged "Like I said, I'm not a hundred percent positive for his reasoning on pretending to be a girl. Maybe it's one of the listed reasons or maybe he could've just been a simple pervert, who knows."
"Doubt it." Yang muttered unconsciously "Him being a pervert is as believable as a drunk guy acting sober."
Velvet smiled softly "Though my real question is; aside from hiding his real gender from you. What real reason did you have to break up with him?"
Yang was taken aback by the surprising question.
"I was serious when I said that you had a real keeper on your hands. Unlike your past girlfriends before you; Ruby seemed to be like the only one who seemed to truly genuinely care about you." She told her,
"Yes, he may lied to you his gender. But in all fairness, he could've kept that secret from you. And act like nothing was wrong, and would've decide to tell you. When you guys are 2-3 years into your relationship."
Yang tightened her fist as she remember last night. About how Ruby had been so adamant about not wanting to reveal his secret.
"He was scared, scared that if- when he told me the truth. I wouldn't love him or I would've rejected him." Her voice broke slightly "And he was right."
Velvet gave a slightly downed expression "He never once gave you a reason to think he was cheating did he?"
Yang shook her head "No, he didn't"
"And he never once gave the impression that he was unfaithful either?"
Yang gnashed her teeth in frustration "No…" she whispered
"He truly loved you didn't he?"
Yang narrowed her eyes and softly touched her chest.
-x-
"Happy three week Anniversary!"
Yang blinked as she found a small rectangular box practically shoved into her face by a grinning Ruby.
"Uh? Thanks?" Yang said slowly accepting the gift "What's this for?"
"I just told you silly," Ruby rolled her eyes playfully "It's our three week anniversary of being together. I just wanted to get you something to honor it." The crimsonette chirped
Yang's lilac eyes widened "Thanks." She mumbled with a stunned expression "But I didn't get you anything."
Ruby smiled as she put her hands behind her back "Mm, you didn't have to. I'm just hoping that you accept the gift with open arms."
Yang smiled as she slowly opened up her present. She gasped when she pulled out the item in question inside the box. It was a golden heart shaped pendant that looked to be burning, while having a red jewel on the inside.
"Do you like it?" Yang heard Ruby say with hope in her voice
"Ruby I. . .this is beautiful." she whispered a deep smiled on her face. She then noticed writing inside the case.
You always loved having a Ruby in your arms. I thought you'd like to have a Ruby close to that passionate burning heart. To the most Yangtastic and Punny girl there is. Love you now and always.
~Ruby
Ruby had a deep blush on her face after Yang finished reading it "Ah, you were supposed to read that in private." She whined, covering her face in embarrassment.
The girl blinked when she was pulled into deep hug. "Oh Rubes, it's so cheesy. But I love it!" She kissed her girlfriend on the cheek. She handed the jewelry to Ruby. "Help me put it on?"
Ruby smiled "Sure."
Yang moved her hair to expose her neck for Ruby to put on the pendant. As she wrapped the chain around her neck. Yang traced her finger along the heart softly. A small smile on her face.
-X-
Teardrops landed on the heart pendant, as Yang held up the gift. A sorrowful expression on her face.
"Oh God," She muttered covered her mouth as tears started pouring "Oh God, what have I done? I made a huge mistake."
Velvet watched on in sympathy as her friend quietly sobbed into her hands. But on the other hand, happy that her friend has finally realized the truth.
-x-
"I was wrong, despite this whole secret thing. Ruby has been nothing but precious to me. And I ended up saying he disgusted me."
As the two girls left the cafe after Yang's little breakdown. Yang and Velvet were walking down the street.
Velvet clutched her bag strap "So what do you plan to do now then?"
"I...I gotta make this right. I have to apologize to him. For everything." She paused and held her arm tightly. Yang turned to Velvet "Velv, I'm so sorry to run out on you like this but…"
"Hey don't worry about it." Velvet smiled putting a comforting hand on Yang's shoulder "Do what you need to do. Follow your heart and everything will work out."
Yang returned the expression and gave the brunette a deep hug before running off. Velvet slowly waved at the blonde's retreating form. The smile on her face morphing into a look of longing.
"Well that conversation went entirely different than I hoped it would." Velvet sighed despondently, but gave a weak smile "But, as long Yang's happy. I suppose that's all that should really matter."
With a saddened heart, the teen walked off, starting for her house. Suddenly finished taking her pictures for the day.
-X-
"Making it right is what I said, but…"
After leaving Velvet, Yang could be seen cutting through the park heading back to her house. She had scroll out, intending on calling Ruby. But the blonde stopped herself, simply staring at the number for the past two minutes.
"Where do I even begin once I call him?" She mused to herself "Moreover would he even want to talk to me after what I did to him?"
Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a ball bouncing. Yang looked and saw a tennis ball rolling to her feet. And running to her was a black and white Corgi.
"Aw, hey there little guy." She crouched down and picked up the ball "Was this what you're looking for?" Holding the ball to the small dog.
The corgi barked, it's stubby tail wagging excitedly. Yang giggled as she gave the ball to the dog in question "Now then, where's your owner little guy?"
"Sorry!"
Yang looked up at the sound of someone calling out. Her lilac eyes widened at the person approaching. A slim looking teenager.
Short crimson hair.
Pale but fair skin.
And a pair of bright silver eyes.
"So sorry about that? I didn't mean to throw the ball that far near you. I hope Zwei...wasn't. . .bothering you. . ."
There was dead silence between the two. As lilac stared into deeply into shocked silver. The blonde barely managing to utter out the the person's name in front of her.
"Ruby. . ."
To be continued. . .
Welp, so much for this being a two-shot. Would've wrote more, but I felt this was a good place to stop. Plus I didn't want to make this too long while the first part was kinda short. I wanna at least TRY and keep it balance. But fortunately, the next and last part won't be too long. So hopefully I'll be able to get it out to you guys.
So anyways apart from that. What did you guys think, you like it, hate it? Was my take on the genderfluid explanation good? Or was I unclear? Any and all feedback will be great. But as always.
Thank you so much for reading. I hope you enjoyed this part. If you did, then please be as kind enough to leave a Fave/Follow/and or Review. And be sure to check out my other works and tell me what you think. Until then. . .
See you next time ^_^
