Yang had been awake for a week now, but it still seemed as though she was asleep. She wasn't Yang anymore. Well maybe that was a bit too dramatic. She was still Yang. She just didn't know anything about herself. She didn't know how to act or who anyone was. It hurt Blake. It meant she didn't have any of the memories of the two of them together. Their first date. Their first kiss. Nothing. She wanted to tell Yang, hell the whole team wanted to tell her, but they didn't see it as something she needed to know yet. She needed to get her bearing back. Learn who she was again. They'd tell her when the time comes.

But what if she never got her memories back? What if she stayed like this forever? Well that wasn't very plausible. Eventually she'd just end up making new memories. Perhaps even becoming someone else entirely. That was what really terrified the faunus. What if Yang became someone else. Someone who couldn't love her like the blonde used too. She pulled her knees tighter into her chest as she sat on her bed. She didn't want to lose Yang. Looking out the window, into the night sky, the faunus decided to count the fragments of the moon. Maybe that'd distract her racing mind enough to let her sleep.

Sleep hadn't been easy at all since Yang was injured. Protecting her none the less. If Blake hadn't been so caught up in stopping the White Fang and paid more attention to her surroundings then maybe Yang wouldn't have been hit by the Paladin's attack. Maybe she wouldn't have had to jump in way to push the unsuspecting Blake out of the way. Maybe she'd still have her memories and maybe they'd be cuddling up while Blake read a book, absentmindedly running her fingers through Yang's golden hair as she slept. This whole thing was Blake's fault.

Even though Ruby kept saying otherwise, the raven haired girl couldn't help but think their leader blames her as well. She took her sister away because she was to stupid to pay attention. She was sure she was hated. No matter how many times she was told otherwise, Blake couldn't shake the feeling.

The next day they went to visit Yang during her physical therapy, bringing team JNPR with them. She was sitting in her wheelchair, taking a break when the seven of them arrived. She looked over while taking a drink from a water bottle, giving a small wave. Ruby bolted forward has usual, engulfing her sister in a hug. Team JNPR followed while Blake hung back by the door for a moment. Blake watched the moment as this was the first time the others had seen Yang since before she woke up. They did visit her while she was still in a coma but that was it. They couldn't really talk to her.

It was interesting to see the blonde interact with them. She watched and listened intently while they introduced themselves. It was obvious that she wanted to learn more about her previous life. Blake hoped it might spark a memory or two in Yang's mind. The doctors told Yang that being around her friends might help her. She noticed the brawler look over in her direction. Their eyes made contact and the faunus couldn't help but smile. Seeing Yang smile back made her stomach fill with butterflies. Deciding she shouldn't mope around, Blake made her way over to everyone to join in on the conversation.

Yang was finally released from the hospital and was on her way back to Beacon. The first stop though would be at the tower. Ozpin had sent word that he needed to talk to the four girls. Blake walked along nonchalantly while reading a book as the other three chatted amongst each other. Well mainly Weiss and Ruby. Yang opted to listen and soak up as much as she could since she's had no luck in remembering anything yet. They talked about the time they all had the food fight at the end of their first semester at Beacon. Yang laughed at the dramatic retelling her sister was giving while the white haired girl constantly butted in to correct something in the story.

"So I really was smacked through the ceiling then?" The blonde asked, skeptical of the whole event.

"Yeah and you didn't like come back down for a good two minutes!" Ruby stated excitedly.

"Yeah. Glynda wasn't too happy," Weiss decided to add in.

Soon enough, the group reached the tower and walked into the elevator. Blake pressed the button to Ozpin's office as she slipped her book into a bag hanging to her side.

Once they reached the headmaster's office, they were surprised to see Taiyang standing there as well. "Ah, girls. Please come in," Ozpin said, taking a sip from his coffee. The girls filed in, stopping in front of his desk. "Now I bet you're all wondering why I called all of you here?" The girls nodded as the grey haired man let out a soft chuckle. "Well, I've been talking to Taiyang here and me and him have come up with an idea." He motioned over to the blonde man. "As you know, the year will come to an end tomorrow and you'll all enter a three month break. Well considering Yang's condition, I figured it'd be good for the four of you to be together. Maybe it'll help unveil some of Ms. Xiao Long's memories."

Ruby's face instantly lit up at the proposition. She had been dreading the break, being away from her team. "Really!" She yelled excitedly.

Taiyang laughed at his daughter's excitement. "Yeah. Well I mean if Yang is up for it." Taiyang looked to his other daughter, waiting for a response.

Yang gave her father a soft smile and nodded. "Yeah. Sounds good."

"Then it's settled." Ozpin declared as he rose from his chair. "Tomorrow you four will be packed and board a shuttle to the island of Patch."

"If I may interject sir," Weiss said raising her hand slightly. "My father will be expecting me home tomorrow. He won't really approve of this."

Ozpin let out another chuckle. "I already handled that. I know of your father's overzealous behavior, so I had James talk to him. Say it was an extra assignment your team decided to take part in."

"And you're sure he was okay with it?"

"He only asked you check in with him every so often." Ozpin gave the heiress a smile as he noticed Weiss roll her eyes. "Now, go and pack. Your shuttle leaves at noon tomorrow. And girls…" He paused taking another drink. "Enjoy your break."

Blake had to admit. She enjoyed Patch. Being away from the city and all the prying eyes was a breath of fresh air. She actually took her bow off, leaving her ears out in the open for all to see. Yang was rather mesmerised by the things, asking if she could touch them. That was one of the first times Blake had seen the old Yang shine through. She couldn't help but let the blonde rub them as they sat on the couch, watching the television with everyone else. It felt nice. She was as gentle as she used to be, causing the faunus to purr slightly. That brought up everyone's spirits after Yang's breakdown the previous night. Seeing the brawler act like her former self made everyone let out a metaphorical breath that nobody knew they were holding in.

Soon, everyone wandered off to bed. Everyone but Yang. She said she was going to stay up a little bit longer and watch the TV some more. Later that night, after several failed attempts to sleep, Blake found herself walking back out into the livingroom. The only light was coming from the TV and Yang's scroll in her hand. She powered the device down, laying it next to her when she noticed the amber eyed girl walk into the room. Blake silently took a seat on the couch next to the blonde. Not too close, but not too far.

Focusing on the TV, she saw Yang was watching some late night talk show from Atlas. The host, some guy named Joel, was interviewing the band, the Achieve Men. "You know you used to listen to them?"

Yang looked to Blake with a small smile. "Yeah. I noticed. A lot of their music is on my scroll. They aren't half bad." Yang turned her attention back to the show as she curled her legs up onto the couch. "All their music is super corny dating songs, but the rhythm is good."

The two remained in silence as they watched the show. Eventually the band went on to perform a song. After the show ended, the station began to play some cop drama movie. They watched the movie in relative silence until Yang spoke up again. "So I was going through some of the pictures on my scroll," She said as she pulled the device back out, clicking it on.

The faunus looked to the girl, interested to see where she was going with this. Yang swiped over to a small thumbnail, clicking in on it, handing the device to Blake. It was a picture the two took a week before Yang's injury. They were together in Blake's bunk as she was trying to read. Yang had her left arm around the faunus, holding the scroll in her other hand to take the picture. She was kissing Blake on the cheek, causing the girl's cheeks to be tinted a bright shade of pink as she smiled.

"You meant a lot to me, didn't you?" The blonde said dismally, looking down to the floor.

Blake looked back to her partner. She could see the girl fighting off her tears. Unconsciously, Blake wrapped her arm around Yang, pulling her closer. "You meant a lot to me too." The faunus paused for a moment. "You do mean a lot to me," she corrected. She noticed Yang smile, hearing a small sniffle.

"I'm sorry, Blake." Yang tried to snuggle closer to the raven haired girl. "I'm sorry I can't remember any of it."

Blake shushed the girl softly. "It's not your fault, Yang." It was her own fault. She's the reason Yang can't remember. "It's not your fault." The two sat there, holding onto each other for the rest of the night, until they both drifted off into slumber.

Taiyang awoke early the next morning, surprised when he walked into the living room. He smiled as he saw his daughter curled up in the couch with Blake, the TV showing some stupid infomercial. He pulled a blanket off the back of the couch, draping it over the girls. He didn't want to disturb them. There was a semblance of his daughter's old personality at the sight before him. Grabbing the remote off the the arm of the couch, he sat down in the recliner, changing the TV to something more desirable than a commercial for People Like Grapes Soda.

I would love to hear your feedback.
