Loving Dragon

Second Date: Practice Makes Perfect

Yang was pacing back and forth frantically on the rooftop of the school while having a very distressed look on her face. "Weiss Schnee. Weiss…Schnee. Weiss the Ice mother freaking Queen Schnee!" Yang stopped and let out a frustrated yell. "Are you freaking kidding me!"

Kyu, who was overlooking Yang's outburst, didn't see what the big deal was so she decided to make small talk. "You know, that teacher of yours, Goodwitch, was it? I don't know about you but I would sure like to have her teach me a few private lessons. You know what I'm saying?" She let out a purr at the thought of the teacher. "Also, that girl with the bow. She's the girl you like right? What was her name again? Blake Belladonna? Not a bad pick."

Yang turned to the love fairy and not having any of her innuendos. "First of all, don't talk about my teacher that way. It's kinda creepy. Second, what the hell!? I thought this thing was supposed to help me! Not tie a noose around my neck!"

Kyu crossed her arms across her chest and still didn't understand what the issue was. "What's the problem? You got your first girl to start this whole thing. The sooner you get to work, the faster you can you can get that new rep built up."

The blonde groaned again as she facepalmed and sighed. She removed her hand and gave the fairy girl a serious look. "There's a reason why Weiss Schnee is called the Ice Queen. She doesn't want to do with anything with anyone. Not once in this whole school has she given anyone any other look than that cold stare of hers. Even I avoided her. Keyword: Avoided! And now I'm supposed to ask her out?! Weiss Schnee the Ice Queen?! How the hell is she supposed to help me?!"

After hearing all of that, Kyu understood the whole situation. "Okay, let me lay it out for you sister. First off, do you really think dating a couple of average girls will help you build up your reputation?" Yang did think that was going to be the case. Date a few girls here and there and poof, a new reputation. "No, that won't be effective enough. You gotta raise it quick and fast like a last-minute quickie before you gotta go to work." Yang could do without the idiom. "In order to do this, you have to go after the most prime of girls. The ones at the top. You date them and show that you're not as bad as everyone thinks you are. After that, they'll spread word about you in the school and who can argue with what one of the top girls says that hold a lot of power over them? And among them is this girl you like. This Weiss chick showed up in the HunieBee because she'll be the start of a lot of chain reactions. You get it now?"

Yang took in the explanation Kyu told her and thought about. "Okay, I see your point but it doesn't change the fact that this is Weiss Schnee. Some of the girls believe she has a heart made out of ice."

Kyu groaned as she rolled her eyes. "That's what you have the HunieBee for. It makes girls like Weiss a little easier to handle. Along with yours truly. So…to start this, what can you tell more about this Weiss chick. Other than she's a cold person."

Yang scratched the back of her head and tried to remember what she knew about Weiss. "Well, for one, Weiss is in honor academics so she's smart. Really smart. She's also the heiress of Schnee Jewelry which makes her really rich. She's not snobbish which I think is a plus. Weiss doesn't throw her money around like it grows on trees. And she eats alone at lunch. That's pretty much what everyone knows about her."

Kyu rubbed her chin while learning what she can about Yang's first girl. "Okay. Then I guess you'll just have to go out there and thaw out that icy heart of hers."

Yang facepalmed again at the fairy's idea. "Didn't you hear me? Weiss is known for shooting people down before they even have a chance to talk to her. She doesn't even like me." She removed her hand to look at the other girl again. "As a love fairy, I'm sure even you know that someone can't get the ball rolling if they're shot down immediately before they get out the first word."

Kyu won't deny she has seen that several times in her line of work. "Eh, you have a point there but it's not borderline impossible. Usually, with girls like Weiss, they have something they like. A chink in their preverbal ice wall. Find that out and that's where you'll start with her."

It seemed like a good plan but Yang laughed in doubt. "Yeah, well, I'm going to need the luck of god and the devil himself to pull that off. No one knows what Weiss likes. She keeps her life to herself and keeps under a very tight lock and key."

Kyu thought there was still a way to crack the Weiss case. "Well, you better work on finding something or else you'll strike out on the first girl. It's not like the one thing she'll like will come out of nowhere for you."

The blonde knew that much and how much this whole thing was riding on. Then she thought of something. "You can't be seen by other people, right? Why don't you follow Weiss back to her house and see what I can use?"

It seemed like a sound plan but Kyu had a problem with it. "And then what? I tell you all the personal secrets she has and then you use that on her and then she'll ask how you know. After that, she'll think you're a stalker and we both know no girl wants that and then you're worse off than where you started from."

Yang saw the irony in that. "Oh, knowing where the girl is via this weird scroll doesn't count as being a stalker? That's rich."

Kyu groaned as she couldn't believe how difficult Yang is making this situation. "Look, I'm just saying there's a right way to do this sort of thing and you're not the first one who suggested that idea to me."

Another strikeout for Yang. She felt like she was getting a migraine from this. "It should not be this hard trying to get a date from a girl."

Kyu could not agree more on that. "You got that right girlfriend."

The two girls then heard the door open and turn to it only to see a young girl arriving at the rooftop. "Yang?"

"Ruby?!" The blonde freaked a little as Kyu was with her but then remembered she can't be seen by anyone else but her so that calmed her down a little. "What you doing here? Did anyone follow you?"

Ruby closed the door behind her and shook her head. "No, I made sure no one followed me. As for why I'm here…" She held up a lunchbox in front of her and lowered it. "I saw you head up the rooftop at the start of lunch and I thought we can share mine. The line's pretty long at this point."

That's right. Yang was in such distress over the whole Weiss thing, she'd forgot to get some lunch. Then again, she would probably wait until the lunch period was near the end. Yang didn't want to deal with a crowd right about now. Ruby offering half her lunch was pretty sweet to Yang. Then again, her sister was always sweet to her. Yang smiled at the younger sister. "Thank you, Ruby."

The two sisters sat down on the floor of the roof across from each other with Ruby's lunchbox in between them. The younger of the two opened it and Ruby's lunch consisted of a turkey sandwich with mayo, a bag of potato chips, and one chocolate chip cookie. Ruby looked across at her sister and smiled. "We can split it up. I'll even give you half of the cookie."

Yang was thankful for her sister's offer. It wasn't often she would share a cookie as Ruby was quite a fanatic for them. "Sure thing Ruby."

The younger sister split her lunch into two halves so both sisters could enjoy the lunch together. Their eating together was a little quiet for Yang's tastes but to be able to spend some time with her younger sister made it enjoyable. Rarely they would get together do something like this as they are now. Ruby nibbled on her half of the sandwich before pulling it away from her mouth. "Do you feel any better? I mean, what happened yesterday was-"

"It's fine, Ruby." The younger sister saw Yang take another bite out of her half of the sandwich. "Believe it or not, I will bounce back from this. Just have a little faith in your big sister, okay?"

Ruby stared at her older sister for a few seconds before smiling again and nodded. "Okay, but are we still going for ice cream?"

Yang laughed a little at the question. "Sure thing. I'd never turn down an opportunity to spend time with my little sister."

Ruby was glad to hear that and they enjoyed the rest of their lunch together. As soon as lunch was done for them, Ruby closed her lunchbox and the two sisters stood up. "Thanks for having lunch with me Yang. I liked it a lot. It's…too bad we can't do this often because…well, you know. I guess I'll see you the next time when I can?"

The blonde nodded at her younger sister. "Sure thing and you can count that next time will be us having some ice cream together."

Ruby was looking forward to that. "I'm looking forward to it. See ya, Yang!" She made her way to the door and grabbed the handle to open it. As soon as Ruby did, she walked through the doorway and was out of Yang's sight.

Yang continued to stare at the doorway until it closed. Spending these little moments with Ruby would always cheer the blonde up no matter how bad things were on her side. She just wished they could have more of these moments out in public. "Wow. I gotta say, that was quite a cute moment you two had."

And reality crashes back into Yang's life and groaned. "Right, you're still here."

She turned around to face Kyu who had a smile on her face. "Never left in the first place. So who was that girl? You mentioned the word 'sister' which is kind of weird since you two don't look anything alike. It's like a pact thing or something."

Yang let out a deep sigh and turned to the door. "Ruby and I are half-sisters. We both have the same dad but different mothers. After my parents divorced, dad married another woman called Summer Rose. Two years later, Ruby was born. Whenever dad had the chance, he would show me Ruby and say 'this is your little sister'. I felt happy that I was an older sister but…" Yang lowered her head and had a saddened look on her face. "Because of my reputation before, I couldn't spend much time with her. I didn't want people to know that we're related. Not because I was ashamed but because I didn't want to drag her along with me. There are some things that should be separated. No one at the school knows we're sisters except for Melanie and Miltia. If they found out Ruby was related to me, especially with what happened to me yesterday, they'll make fun of her and I don't want that. This whole thing is on me and I don't want Ruby to be part of it."

Kyu was actually impressed with what Yang had described with her relationship with her sister. "Wow. That's something deep and meaningful coming from you."

Yang scoffed at the fairy's words. "Like you'd understand."

Kyu walked up to Yang and stood next to her. "Believe me, I understand. I seldom get clients like you around. I suppose this is a side almost anyone doesn't get to see. Then again, what about the girls you dated before?"

The other girl shook her head. "No, I haven't told them. If I did, people at the school would already know. One got close but…" Yang stopped herself from finishing the sentence. "That's another story for another time."

The fairy would like to hear this story of Yang's but would have to wait until that time comes. Right now, there are two things she wanted to ask Yang. One of them about her sister. "So, how old is Ruby? Looks a little young to be in a school like this." She counted the math between the two sisters and had one more question. "How old are you Yang?"

The blonde didn't mind answering the question. "Seventeen."

Kyu continued to count on her fingers. "Okay, so you're seventeen and that would make your sister Ruby…fifteen?!" She was surprised how the younger was able to make it into the same high school as Yang.

Yang chuckled as she expected a reaction like that from Kyu. "Yep. Ruby skipped a whole two years so we're the same grade. She's one smart cookie I'll tell you that. So smart, in fact, she's in the same honor academics as Weiss. Kinda ironic actually. My sister getting perfect marks while I'm struggling in the above average category."

The fairy giggled a little at that. "So you got the looks but not the brains. At least you're the stereotypical blonde at the school. Well, except for your rep destroying you."

The blonde rolled her eyes at the description. "Yeah, yeah." She quickly realized something. "Oh crap!" She took out the HunieBee scroll and checked it. She sighed out of relief once she didn't see her sister's name on the screen. "Oh, thank god. I thought Ruby was going to be on this thing."

Kyu giggled at that. "Nah, the HunieBee will only add girls that'll help you and your sister isn't one. Not trying to be insulting about that. However, I did have several clients that did date their sisters."

Yang could do without knowing that. "Yeah, well, I'm glad that didn't happen to me. It'd be too weird to date my own sister."

Speaking of Ruby, Kyu snapped her fingers as soon as she heard that. "Hey, if your sister is in the same class as Weiss, then maybe-"

"Doubt it." Yang interrupted the other girl. "If Ruby knew anything about Weiss, she'd tell me. So far, nothing. Except for that one part where she told me Weiss bumps into her time to time."

That particular detail caught Kyu's attention. "Is that so?" The fairy decided she would look into that matter for another time. She sighed and moved on to her next question. "Well, since we're going to be kinda stuck on this bitch of a problem for a while, let's move on to the next part."

Yang turned to the other girl while having a confused look on her face. "What next part?"

Kyu grinned at Yang. "You doing anything tomorrow?"

B

The bell rang signaling lunch was over. Ruby put her lunchbox back in her locker and grabbed the books she needed for her next class. She smiled at the thought she and Yang were able to spend time together. In school, no less. Ruby did sometimes wish she could tell everyone that she was Yang's younger sister and they wouldn't have to meet in secret anymore but Ruby knew her sister wouldn't like that. Ruby turned around and started to walk. Only to bump into the last person anyone wanted to encounter while both their books dropped to the floor. Ruby saw Weiss in front of her and her face color turned white. "W-Weiss!?"

Weiss stared at the books on the floor and then glared angrily at the younger girl. "Look what you've done!" She kneeled to pick up her books and Ruby did the same. "Honestly, first that brutish oaf Xiao Long and now you. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you two were related."

Ruby laughed nervously at that. "Y-Yeah, that would be funny, huh?" Their hands eventually landed on top of each other on a book. The two girls just stared at their hands touching each other and then Ruby yelped. She pulled her hand away while feeling a little frightened. "S-Sorry! I thought that was my book!" Ruby saw her book close to her and picked up quickly. She stood up just as fast while continuing to laugh nervously. "I'll see you in class later Weiss!" Ruby ran off to her next class.

Weiss stood up as she saw the other girl run away from her. She then looked at her hand and stared at it with a slight blush of what happened before. "Dolt…"

B

"So what are we doing here again?"

"Duh, it's a date. Well, a practice date." Yang and Kyu were sitting at a table in the food court at the mall on a Saturday afternoon. It was Kyu's idea from the start and proposed it to Yang. Thankfully, Kyu decided to make herself visible for Yang's sake so it wouldn't like she was talking to herself. The fairy's disguise was the same was before, except this time, she wore a pink tank top and a white pleated skirt along with stockings. As for the food they were having, Kyu went for the classic burger and fries combo while Yang was having some chicken strips and fries as well. The blonde saw the fairy eating her burger and enjoying it. "Man, I love human food. I said this once and I'll say it again. If this burger was a chick, I'd fuck her brains out."

Yang had a deadpan expression on her face while she was seeing Kyu eating. "Wow, the mouth on this one. I'd figure fairies would be more dignified." Other than Kyu's word choice of describing how good a burger was, Yang still had questions. "Okay, so you said this was a practice date, right? Why are doing this instead of trying to figure out of how to get Weiss to date me?"

Kyu took another bite out of her burger before setting it down. "An easy question my buxom blonde friend. If we spend all of our energy on one problem with no clear solution, we won't get anywhere so what we'll do for now is to show you how a date is supposed to go. That way, you'll be prepared for the upcoming date with Weiss."

It sounded like a good idea for Yang but she still had questions. "Okay, so how is this date supposed to be different than the ones I've done before?"

The fairy chuckled confidently at the question. "Take out your HunieBee." Yang did just that and looked at it. "Now, tap the screen." The blonde did what she was told.

The next thing Yang knew, two bigger screen appeared before the blonde side by side which freaked her out. "What the hell?! What are these things?" She saw small icons appear on the screen. "What are these small icons?"

Kyu always loved that reaction. "The screen on the right is called a date grid and those little pieces you see on the screen are tokens. There are seven tokens in total. The four main tokens you need to focus on. The green tokens are called flirtation, the orange is romance, blue is talent, and red is sexuality. The tear tokens are sentiment and the bells are turn tokens. The broken hearts you see are ones you need to avoid. The screen on the left is your answer questionnaire. It shows which questions you can ask and answers of the girls you're dating. How this works is pretty simple. On the date grid, all you have to do is match three or more of the same tokens and it fills up that meter you see on the bottom." Yang looked at the bottom and did see a meter. "You want to match the four main tokens to fill the meter. A good strategy is to match the token that best suits the girl you're dating. But there are also tokens that won't work as well. You can learn more about which token matches best and least with the girl on your HunieBee. Sentiment tokens allow you to use gifts that'll make this easier. The turn tokens, as the name implies, will give you more turns. The pink hearts are passion tokens which can increase the power of the four main tokens. The broken hearts, however, are something you'd want to avoid. They'll decrease the meter and the girl won't be happy. As for the answer questionnaire, three options will appear for you to choose. You have a one in three chance of getting the question right. Choose the right one and you'll get a pretty good payoff. Choose the wrong one and you'll get nothing. You getting this so far?"

It was a little overwhelming for Yang to understand all of this. She summed it up in her own way. "So it's like a puzzle game."

Kyu gave the other girl a sly smile. "You can say something like."

Yang groaned at the answer. "Great. Puzzle games aren't usually my thing. By the way, aren't people going to question about the screens?"

"Not really. Like me, only you can see them. As for the dates themselves, usually it's five but for you, it'll be three."

The blonde raised an eyebrow. "Why three?"

Kyu leaned back in her chair. "In my line of work, it's always five dates. After the fifth date, that's when my client would bang the girl or boy. Except in your situation, you're not trying to get into bed with the girl you like. You're trying to get together with her but your rep destroyed any chance of that happening. The three dates you'll be on will act similar to a beginning, middle, and end. It should be enough to put an impression on the girl you'll be dating. After the third date, if it's successful, that girl will spread good things about you throughout the school and chances are, that girl, Blake Belladonna will hear them."

The whole thing sounded too good to be true to Yang and that was good enough for her. She'll take any chance to gain Blake's attention. "Okay then. So how many girls do I have to date?"

Kyu just shrugged at the question. "Don't know but I can't imagine it won't be much." It was a little concerning Yang won't know the max total of girls she would have to date so this new reputation of hers would be good enough for Blake to go out with her. "So let's get the practice date going. To move the tokens, all you have to do is look at the token you want to move and match it with other tokens of the same to make three or more of a match. If you mess it up, I won't fail you. And don't forget to ask a question every now and then."

Even if it was practice, Yang was determined to pass this game date. "Alright then." She stared at the date grid and studied it. The blonde already saw matches she could make. Yang focused on a romance token and moved it three spaces to where there two to make a matching three. When she did that, all three tokens disappeared and more fell from the top. The meter on the bottom filled up slightly. One detail Yang noticed was that when she moved that certain token, the other tokens moved to the side and changed positions. "So this is how it works."

She looked to the answer questionnaire and saw Kyu's name at the top of it. Yang also saw Kyu's last name and snickered. "Your last name is Sugardust?" She laughed at the last name.

The fairy girl groaned when she heard that. "Are you kidding me? I really hate my last name." She continued to hear Yang laugh and had enough. "Alright already! You had your fun. Now get to the questions already."

Yang settled down and saw the three questions she would ask Kyu. One question caught her interest. "Okay, how's this for an icebreaker? How old are you?"

Kyu smiled at the question. "Three hundred and eighty-five. That's in fairy years FYI."

"No way!" Yang had no idea Kyu would be that old. She didn't even look over three hundred years old. "I guess that's to be expected of a fairy." The blonde saw three new questions appeared on the answer questionnaire. "My next question is what season do you like the best."

The fairy loved that question. "Summer, no contest. In case you haven't figured it out, I love to walk in my underwear."

Yang already noticed that detail. She focused back on the board and moved a talent token four spaces down to make another three match. Next, Yang moved a sexuality token five spaces to the left for a third three match. So far, it seemed easy enough just as long she doesn't match three broken hearts in one match. The blonde looked back at the answer questionnaire and saw another three new options. "How's this for a question? Where are you from?"

Kyu chuckled at the question. "I'm from a world called Sky Garden. It's similar to your world. Well, a world except the sky is pink." That was an interesting detail Yang learned. Her next move was matching three passion tokens. They didn't seem to increase the meter so the blonde matched three flirtation tokens instead. This time, the meter filled up a little quicker. Yang continued to make three matches of all four tokens while trying to avoid the broken heart tokens. While she was doing this, Kyu had an idea. "Question time!" Yang stopped moving the tokens when she was only a few turns away from filling the bar. "Here's my question. What did I order when I was with you at the bar?"

The answer questionnaire shifted and there were three new options. One of them Yang already knew the answer. "Strawberry Sunrise and you drank the whole thing pretty quick."

Kyu was impressed by Yang's answer. "She is picking this up quickly. Maybe there's hope for this girl after all."

Yang made the few moves she had left to completely fill the meter. Once it did, it flashed and it was quickly drained. "Wait, now what?"

"The date's over." Yang looked at Kyu again. "The meter and the date are intertwined with each other. The better you do at the grid, the better the date will be. Once it's filled, the date is over and you'll have successfully completed it. However, there's also a chance you can mess it up and in your case, that's not an option. Now then…" She snapped her fingers and the two screens in front of Yang vanished and another one appeared in front of Yang. "That's your upgrade screen. The more upgrades you do, the better the chances the date will. You can update flirtation, talent, romance, sexuality, the max level of your passion, how much matching three broken hearts won't hurt, the occurrence of power tokens and multiplying their worth. You see the counter at the top?" Yang looked at the direction and saw a number in the thousands. "That number is the total amount of Hunie you have. You gain Hunie by the questions you ask and the questions you answer. There's also giving gifts to the girls they'll like. Once you have enough Hunie, you can upgrade these categories until they're maxed out. The more dates you're be taking on, the harder they'll become. So take your pick."

Yang studied the screen and decided what she needed to upgrade. "Luck be my lady tonight." She had enough Hunie to upgrade charisma and luck by one level each. "That should do it. I like to have the odds in my favor."

Kyu clapped her hands together. "Good girl. Just remember everything you've learned in this practice date and you'll do fine. Now then, let's finish up our food and blow this popsicle stand." Yang could agree to that. Doing the whole token match game did leave her a little hungry. They both ate together while enjoying their food.

B

Yang used the remainder of the weekend to study what data she had on Weiss. Kyu said it had the basic data of the girl in it and memorized it. She was walking in the school hallway to pass the time before class started while looking at her HunieBee scroll to review. "Let's see. The tokens that work with Weiss the most are talent and what doesn't work well is sexuality. Favorite food is ice cream which is surprising and items she likes are anything like classic music."

"How's the studying?" Kyu popped up out of nowhere in her fairy form and was floating behind the blonde.

Yang continued to look at the HunieBee. "Going good so far. Not surprised Weiss is flat."

Kyu sighed at that. "I know that feeling. I hate being a C-cup."

The other girl chuckled. "Weiss is more close to being an A so you're at least bigger than her."

The fairy was about to say something about that when both girls heard a voice. "Are you blind or something!?"

Yang put the HunieBee scroll away and ran up to where the commotion was. She and Kyu ran up to what was going on saw Weiss along with… "Ruby?"

"What did your sister do to Weiss?" Kyu asked. That was something Yang wanted to know.

They both watched was unfolding in front of them. Ruby looked rather embarrassed at what she was in. "B-But, you bumped into me, Weiss."

Weiss growled at the younger girl. "So now you're accusing me? I'll never understand how someone like you is in the same grade as me. I can't even believe we're in the same class! How can someone so clumsy as you make it this far?"

Yang gritted her teeth and closed her hand tightly. Kyu noticed it immediately. "Whoa, calm down there girl. Let's not make this the scene any worse." Yang knew that much. She just hates not helping Ruby at times like these.

Ruby looked down while pressing her index fingers together. "I'm sorry Weiss."

Weiss slightly gasped at the look Ruby was giving her and her eyes widened. That look, in particular, caught Kyu's eye. "Wait a minute…"

Weiss cleared her throat and slightly looked away from the other girl. "Just pay more attention next time. Okay?" She walked past Ruby to head to her class. The girls nearby spoke to each other before moving on. Ruby stood still for a few seconds before moving on.

While Yang saw Ruby leave, she sighed deeply. "I'd sock Weiss for treating Ruby that way but I don't want to make things worse for either of us. I still can't believe I have to date Weiss and I still don't know how to approach her."

"I found something you can use on our little ice queen."

Yang turned to Kyu with a confused look. "You did? How?"

The fairy winked at the blonde. "I'll tell you at the lunch hour."

B

"What do you mean Weiss likes my sister?!" Kyu shushed her to keep her quiet about that specific detail. The lunch hour started and they were in the girl's bathroom where it was only Yang and Kyu.

After shushing Yang, Kyu opted to explain. "What I mean is I saw the way Weiss was looking at your sister. I've seen it a million times in my work. Also, what you told me before about Weiss bumping into your sister might be her own weird way to talk to your sister. I guess she's too nervous to speak to her normally."

Yang chuckled at that. "Weiss nervous? Those are two words I thought would never mix up together. So what are we going to do about this?"

Kyu held up one finger. "Easy. Now that you have something to use on Weiss, go talk to her and use what you learned to your advantage. What do you think?"

Yang thought about the idea for several seconds. "It's not much but I think it'll be good enough." She smiled at the idea. "Yeah, let's do it! Weiss always eats alone at a bench at lunch so this'll be a great opportunity."

Kyu wanted to hear that from the other girl. "Great, so what are we waiting for? Go get her!" Yang nodded at the fairy and ran out of the bathroom. "Finally, we're getting the ball rolling."

B

Weiss sighed as she ate her spinach. Once again, she botched up trying to have a normal conversation with Ruby. It may seem Weiss had a problem with the younger girl but it was quite the opposite. While everyone kept their distance from her, Ruby was the only one who approached her with such energy. Such happiness. Such kindness. Weiss had never met anyone like Ruby before but instead of returning Ruby's generosity, she treated Ruby the same as the others which wasn't her intention. Weiss just didn't know how to start a conversation with the younger girl so she would 'accidently' bump into Ruby as that would be her only chance to talk to her. However, it hasn't been working out very well but there was no other way Weiss could talk to Ruby. "How is such a simple thing so difficult?"

"Hey, Weiss!"

Weiss looked ahead to see Yang walking toward. She glared at the other girl as Yang was the last person she wanted to see. "What business do you want with me, Xiao Long?"

Yang stopped in front of Weiss and smiled. "I'm here because I know you happen to like that girl Ruby Rose."

Weiss was shocked to hear that but decided to call out Yang's bluff. "Don't be absurd! Why would I take in interest in someone like her?"

The blonde decided to take a page out of Kyu's book. "I may not look it but when I saw your little scene with that Ruby girl, I saw the way you looked at Ruby. You do like her, don't deny it."

Weiss highly doubted Yang would notice such a minute detail but one thing she can't deny was that Yang was on the right track. She decided to play it cool. "And what of it and why does it concern you of all people?"

This was Yang's chance now and wasn't going to waste it. "I want to make a deal with you. You go out with me and I'll make sure you'll have an easier time with Ruby."

Weiss just stared at Yang all dumbfounded before laughing. "You must be joking! Me going out with you? What makes you think I would want to be the next victim of your long trail of destruction?" She continued to laugh at the blonde.

Yang expected this kind of reaction from Weiss. "I'm not asking you out to be my next five-second girlfriend. Believe me, if it was something entirely else, I wouldn't ask you. However, that's not the case here. My reason is that if you go out with me, maybe you can see a different side of me."

Weiss stopped laughing and calmed down. "A different side of you? Really? I find that hard to imagine."

Yang growled at the other girl. "And I find it hard to believe Weiss Schnee the Ice Queen doesn't have a heart of ice so there's that." Weiss glared at Yang for saying those certain words. "Look at it this way. You scratch my back and I scratch yours. What do you say?"

If Weiss had it any other way, she would just reject Yang's offer and storm off but what the blonde offered did sound tempting, if not a little humorous. Yang would know almost every girl in the school so her chances of having an actual conversation with Ruby could happen. That's when she thought of an idea of her own. "Fine then but I have my own proposition to make. To make this more interesting, how would you like to make a bet?"

Yang blinked a few times in confusion at Weiss' offer. "What kind of bet?" Her answer from Weiss came in the form of her smirking at Yang.
