Stars: I combined chapters four and five. Not for any real reason, I just didn't like the dramatic shift combining the first three chapters had on the fourth. 4,000 words didn't seem like a big shift previously, but going from 10,000 to 4,000 felt odd, and really not as consistent as I would have liked.
Jaune felt... simply amazing when the bullhead finally docked at Beacon. He and Reese were something and that was enough for him. Their day, and night, together had been the most fun he had had in a long time and he felt a connection to Reese. Just what this connection was or where it came from he honestly didn't care about, he just wanted to continue spending time with the awesome girl whose hand was in his and whose head was resting on his shoulder.
"We are so doing this again. All of it. The moment we get some free time we're hanging out, you got that?" Jaune was perfectly aware that what Reese had just said was in no way a question, it was an order. An order he intended to follow without hesitation.
"Absolutely." Reese grinned up at him as she clutched his hand a little tighter.
They stood up from their seats and made their way out of the bullhead, and as soon as their feet hit familiar ground Reese let go of Jaune's hand as he was thrown to the ground by a very enthusiastic pink blur.
"Oh my gosh, you're back! I can't believe it Pyrrha was so sure you were never coming back and I was like nah Jaune would never leave us and here you are and I was right and she was wrong and that's amazing because I don't know how we'd be able to function without you because to be honest I get kind of lost in battle nowadays and I really don't know what to do unless you tell m-"
"Nora!" Nora immediately jumped off of the dazed Jaune.
"Eep! Coming Ren!" She bolted back to Ren and Pyrrha who, as opposed to Nora, made a rather calm entrance. Jaune rose from the ground with the help of a giggling Reese, and Pyrrha eyed the way they didn't mind being so close as she held Jaune tightly for support while he regained his bearings.
"Jaune. Where have you been? Why didn't you leave a message or note?" Her voice was calm and controlled, uncomfortably so, and Jaune could easily tell that Pyrrha was very unhappy with his behavior.
"I'm sorry, Pyr, I just got so excited that I kinda... forgot. We've just been... hanging out and then we lost track of time." At that moment Jaune realized none of his teammates might recall who Reese was, he had never mentioned her after all and her team was ejected in the first round of the tournament. "So... Reese, these are my teammates; Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren. Guys, this is Reese."
Pyrrha, tense as could be, extended a hand and Reese shook it. "It's an honor, Miss Nikos." Pyrrha's eyes widened slightly, not expecting such a reply from someone who looked so... Reese-like.
"Just Pyrrha, please."
"Sure thing." Reese was suddenly pulled into a tight and painful hug from Nora.
"Any friend of Jaune's is a friend of mine!" The energetic ginger shouted happily before being called back by Ren yet again. She released Reese and rubbed the back of her head sheepishly. "Hehe, sorry I get kind of excited."
"I-it's cool." She approached Ren, who seemed content to just stay where he was with a very calm expression on his face. "Nice to meet you, Ren."
"Likewise," he replied, sending her a very knowing look. She gulped, wondering if this man could see into her mind, or just always seemed like he knew everything you did and were going to do.
A ping from Reese's only now turned on scroll caught everyone's attention and Jaune wanted to chuckle at the cute pout making its way onto her face as she read the message she had just gotten. "Aww man," she whined, sending an apologetic look to everyone gathered, though she stopped on Jaune, "Arslan, my team leader, just found out I'm back and she wants me back at our room yesterday. I gotta head out."
Jaune gave her an understanding smile, swiftly taking out his own scroll and typing out a quick message. Reese's scroll pinged again and a message from an unknown number welcomed her, though she knew it was from Jaune.
"I'll call you later." He said with a wink and a smile, making a similar smile break out on Reese's face too. Without really thinking about it, she closed the distance between them. She stood up on her toes and gave Jaune a quick kiss on the lips, before turning around and sprinting towards the housing for the foreign students, throwing one last wave over her shoulder before she disappeared out of sight.
The only one the kiss had really affected was Pyrrha, who in the blink of an eye had suddenly had all of her worst fears confirmed right before her eyes. She turned without saying a word and stormed off quickly. Jaune cocked his head in confusion at her exit as Nora suddenly ran after her. Ren stayed behind and flicked Jaune in the forehead.
"Hey, what'd I do?!"
"Everything..."
Reese nearly slammed through the door so excitedly that it almost burst off its hinges. Arslan rose from her desk with a stern look on her face, her tone equally as stern. "And just where have you been, Reese!?" The smile disappeared from Reese's face before appearing again a moment later.
"Arslan, boy have I got a story for you!"
"Nu-uh, don't even think about it. You're not getting out of telling me where the hell you've been for the past 36 hours and why the hell you turned off your bloody scroll! I've been worried sick!"
Reese completely ignored her team leader's words, grabbing said team leader by the hand and dragging them to her bed. "So, I met this awesome guy yest- no, it was two days ago, after our match, and we hung out all day talking about awesome stuff! His name is Jaune and he loves X-Ray and Vav too and he's really cute sometimes and super hot sometimes and we went into Vale yesterday and we ate pancakes together and then we went to a skate park!" Arslan was starting to get scared. Not because Reese was smiling like a madman, but because she hadn't taken a single breath during that entire sentence.
"Hang on," Arslan started, holding up her hands to stop Reese from going on another rant, "Jaune? Jaune Arc? That guy who started arguing with the other team during his team's match?"
"Yep, that's the one! Oh my gosh, he's such a cutie! Arslan, I've struck gold! We have like this absolutely awesome bond already, and I know it sounds weird but... wow, it just feels so right!" Reese seemed to grow a bit distant, and the smile on her face told that even more was going on if Arslan was reading it right.
"Okay, but where were you last night? You aren't telling me you guys hung out for literally all of that time...?"
Reese could feel her cheeks heat up slightly, but she was in no way ashamed. In fact, she wanted to share what she had done with Arslan too. "About that... well... we kinda did hang out... in a hotel room... together..."
Arslan's eyes widened and her jaw fell open for a moment. "W-wait!" She stammered out, "Y-you're not actually saying you two..."
Reese only smiled wider, pulling down her hoodie and undershirt slightly to reveal her neck. Along with the bite marks on it. "We did... and it was amazing~..."
"I mean... I am not at all one to say you shouldn't do that if you want to, but knowing you... after only two days?" Arslan was in disbelief. As long as she had known Reese, she had thought the girl had absolutely no interest in anything other than skating and fighting. To say she was a tomboy was a massive understatement. Boys were rather low on her list of priorities.
"After two days of awesomeness... Arslan I was so sure that I wanted to give that guy my virginity. I was more sure than I've ever been about anything. If only you could feel how I felt at that exact moment you'd understand. Jaune... he showed that he was worthy of a gift like that. Trust me."
"If you're certain... then... I'm happy you found someone. Though it doesn't excuse you turning off your Scroll..." Arslan's shocked expression dissolved into an almost motherly frown. A frown Reese had seen more times than she could count.
"I'm sorry, I was just having so much fun with Jaune... and then I kinda didn't want you to interrupt us..." just thinking back to what she and Jaune had shared less than 24 hours ago made a warm tingle erupt in Reese's stomach. "It was so much better than touching yourself... that guy has both an awesome body and an awesome tongue..."
Arslan developed a reticent expression at this statement. "O-oh yeah?" She didn't really know how exactly she felt about Reese divulging such information to her. She supposed it was a show of trust, but at the same time, Reese was sort of like a sister to her. A sister she felt really protective over.
"Oh yeah, I don't think I could tell you how absolutely wonderful it felt and have you understand without having experienced it first. Oh gosh, Arslan when we finally took that last step and he thrust inside me? I felt like I was going to die. In a very good way..." Reese blushed an even deeper shade of red and her body began to grow warm from the thought.
No words left Arslan's mouth this time, her cheeks ablaze with color. Reese talking about Jaune... especially in such a vivid and graphic fashion... she didn't want to admit it was starting to make her feel tingly.
"I thought most of those girls in porn were faking it, but, honestly, I'm starting to doubt it... it felt so good... me riding him, riding his cock... and he tasted so good too..." with every word that left Reese's lips, Arslan could feel herself feeling weirder and weirder. She was getting turned on, but this was Reese's boyfriend, right? She shouldn't get turned on by someone who wasn't hers, right?
"U-um... R-Reese? Are you sure you should be talking to me about your boyfriend that way?"
"Oh, he's not my boyfriend." This made Arslan so confused, as soon as it left Reese's lips. "Yeah, we're just... something. It feels right that way. You know? I mean you probably don't know. But it does, take my word for it."
"So you two don't have feelings for... or you do but you're not together…?"
Reese giggled, seeing Arslan so confused was honestly hilarious to her. "We talked about it. We have feelings for each other, I'm sure of that, but aren't in a relationship we're just... something. So we can see other people if we want." Just then an idea came to her, making her smile and bounce excitedly.
"You know, I've got a way for you to see just what I mean when I talk about Jaune~..." Arslan wasn't sure she liked where this was going, or the tone in Reese's voice, and she was totally sure she didn't like how her body felt like it was heating up even more...
"W-where are you going with this, Reese...?" She asked cautiously, trying feebly to deny how tingly she felt.
"I'm sure Jaune would have nothing against showing you exactly how good he can make you feel~..."
"Reese! Absolutely not!" Arslan shouted in a high voice. "I'm glad you found someone that makes you happy, but I will not do such things with a complete stranger!" Her voice, though she tried to make it sound harsh, only revealed how embarrassed she was that the thought of doing it with a stranger made her so hot.
"Oh come on Ars! Trust me, you wouldn't regret it! Besides, you're so tense these days you could use the stress relief..." Reese said slyly.
Arslan had no intention of revealing how right Reese was. With their loss against team RWBY and subsequent elimination from the tournament, Arslan couldn't deny she had been feeling both stressed and tense. Team ABRN was supposed to be the best, and then they had been defeated so early. It had, and still did in a way, made her frustrated, but sleeping with some random guy couldn't be the answer, right?
Though... this wasn't some random guy. This was someone who Reese really liked, someone who had apparently caught the attention of one of the most romance-shy girls Arslan had ever met. And if what Reese said was true, Jaune would surely be able to make her at least feel goo- NO! Bad brain!
"I can talk to Jaune later about it... we're meeting up for round 2 in as soon as we can~..."
"I-I don't know Reese..." Arslan couldn't believe that she was even considering doing it. But she couldn't deny that she was. It was her body's fault, she deduced. When this conversation was over she would no longer feel the pull towards promiscuity.
"Just trust me Ars... everything will be fine if you decide to. But I'm not going to push you. It's your decision to make. But personally, I think you should go for it," Reese finished with a wink.
"I-I'll think about it…"
"That's all I ask. Now, if you would excuse me, I'm going to go take some pictures of my boobies and send them to Jaune~..."
'Jaune Arc... what have you done to my sweet, innocent little Reese...?'
In team JNPR's dorm room an emotional struggle was going on. Pyrrha was sitting on her bed, fighting back the urge to head over to the foreign students' housing and strangle a certain skateboarder... and then the handsome blonde idiot sitting across from her. Nora was at her side, visibly fighting back the urge to rant about how Jaune now had a girlfriend, but she couldn't. Not while Ren had her locked down with his special look.
Jaune was just confused. Happy, thanks to Reese, but confused.
He didn't really want to open his mouth to break the horrible silence that was dominating the entire room, he really, really didn't. Because he knew that if he opened his mouth he was dead. He didn't know why he was dead, or who specifically would cause him to become dead, but he was dead nonetheless.
"Jaune..." started Ren, "Why don't you start from the beginning for us? Tell us what you did all of yesterday."
Jaune blushed, pulling at the collar of his hoodie and his shirt. "W-why? I mean, sure, but why?"
"Just humor us."
"Okay, well about two days ago I introduced myself to Reese, it turned out she was super cool and we got along really well. We share a lot of the same interests, and views, so I asked her if she wanted to hang out. She said yes, and the next day we went out to eat breakfast, we went to the skate park so she could have some fun, and then we just sort of walked around and lost track of time. We got rooms in a hotel and then Nora woke us up with that call. We left and we came back and you know the rest..."
Ren wasn't entirely satisfied with that. Jaune seemed to be leaving some things out. Important things, but he felt that was for the best. The best or not, Pyrrha needed closure on the subject…
"Why. Did. She. Kiss. You. Jaune?" Pyrrha bit out, every single visible muscle in her body looking as tense as steel.
Jaune could only laugh awkwardly and scratch the back of his head in that annoying habit of his. "Well... we kinda kissed for the first time two days ago... and then a lot more times while we were in Vale..."
"So she's your girlfriend now?" Nora asked before Ren could stop her, making Pyrrha's already clenched jaw clench even harder.
Before Jaune could answer, trying to come up with a way to explain his and Reese's situation without mentioning their amazing night together, his scrolled pinged. Everyone in the room turned to look at the tablet lying next to Jaune on his bed, all of them quiet, before Pyrrha moved, fast as lightning, and snatched the Scroll up. She quickly unlocked it, having figured out Jaune's password long ago, and saw that he had a message from Reese... with several pictures attached. She almost didn't want to open the message to see what the images within it displayed, she didn't want to confirm her worst fears.
"Pyrrha..." Jaune said calmly, panicking horribly on the inside. He could guess as to who would be messaging him from the look on her face. He couldn't know what was inside said message, but he, again, could guess. "Please give me my scroll..." he held out his hand and Pyrrha looked towards his hand, and back to the message. Pyrrha just couldn't do it. She couldn't violate someone's privacy like that. She gave it to Jaune, and as soon as he saw that there were pictures attached he closed the scroll and put it away. It was just too bad that an action as simple as him not looking at the picture pretty much confirmed what the picture was for her.
"Jaune..." her voice was no longer so venomous, but it was every bit as desperate as she looked. "Is she? Is she your girlfriend?"
"Not... really..." Jaune started, a small twinkle of hope returning to Pyrrha's eyes. She didn't care if Jaune has a one night stand, everyone needed some release once in awhile after all, and as long as no real feelings were involved she still had a chance of winning the Knight's heart in the end, right?
Then Jaune started talking again and Pyrrha felt her hope die and shrivel away. "I mean, I like Reese. I really like like Reese and she like likes me too, so we are a thing, we just haven't put a label on it. I guess you could call it an open relationship?" He finished with a shrug, not noticing the duality of emotions rampaging in Pyrrha's mind.
'Jaune's heart has been stolen, but we can still have his body... we can rightfully take back the heart that is ours by using his "free" body...'
"That... huh, that's kind of a good idea. I like the sound of that..." Nora said suddenly, putting a finger on her chin in thought. "I think I need to go think about something for a minute!" With those words, Nora ran out of the room, and Jaune got a horrible feeling that he just gave her a terrible idea. Or maybe it was a good thing, perhaps Nora would finally do something about her feelings for Ren.
"So you two are a thing, but she's not your girlfriend? Makes sense. Open relationships are becoming more and more common, really." Ren said, finally taking his gaze off of Pyrrha and adopting a thoughtful expression. Jaune suddenly felt less alone, unaware that he felt so weird about it in the first place. But now his friends weren't calling it weird, everything was perfectly fine. All of his fears were gone. He knew RWBY would have no problem with it, though Ruby might need a little bit of an explanation. Weiss probably couldn't care less about what he does... The thought still stung a bit. And Yang would most likely… just make a pun about it… a horrible one...
Pyrrha was being awfully quiet, but she appeared to no longer be upset.
Jaune smiled at both Ren and Pyrrha, happy to have his team's support. "Ren, I hate to say it, but I think Nora's-"
"I know, Jaune. I know..." Ren let out a sigh as he also left the room, casting a subtle glance at Pyrrha before closing the door behind him. He and Nora would have to have a talk with her.
Jaune turned to his red-haired partner, still smiling, and Pyrrha could help but smile slightly back. Her mind was still a blur of emotions, but Jaune's smiles were always so infectious. "Why don't we have an extra long training session tonight? It'll be my way of saying sorry for not telling you guys where I was and worrying you." Jaune's voice made her smile a little wider and Pyrrha nodded.
"I would like that."
In reality, Jaune actually wanted to spend the night with Reese, but he felt obligated to make it up to Pyrrha. If getting beaten for a while by her made her happy and helped her forgive him, Jaune was sure Reese would understand.
Pyrrha got up and stretched. "I think I'll go and spend some time on the roof while you get ready... I also need to do some thinking," she said, walking out of the door. She stopped before exiting completely and turned to look back at Jaune. "Oh and... I'm sorry. I know I worry too much sometimes." She walked back and hesitated before going in to kiss him on his cheek. At the last second, though, she turned it into a hug, turning around and quickly leaving the room as soon as she let go of him.
As soon as Pyrrha had left, Jaune pulled out his scroll hastily and opened up the message he was sent earlier, pulling up the first picture within the message and smiling like a dope at the arousing image now being displayed on his scroll. It was just a simple pic of Reese's breasts, but her smiling face was enough to make it amazing. Along with the pictures was a short message too; "Hope this will help until we can meet up again~ :P"
"I think I have some time..." Jaune mumbled to himself, standing up and hastily heading into the bathroom, locking the door behind him.
Jaune smiled happily as he wandered the Beacon grounds, whistling a merry tune as he headed towards where he and Reese had decided to meet up. Another day of fun was on the horizon, he could feel it, and he wanted to share it all with Reese. For once he actually knew exactly what he wanted to do. He wanted to introduce Reese to RWBY, he was sure Ruby and her would get along great, and Reese didn't seem like one to hold grudges.
'I wonder what Weiss' reaction will be...' he pondered idly as he walked. He still liked the heiress, no matter how many times he had been rejected by her, though he had promised himself he would stop trying to chase her after what had happened at the dance. She liked Neptune, not him, and he had come to terms with that, but that didn't mean his feelings had just withered away. He knew he was in love with her, just like he knew he was in love with Reese, though in a different way.
Upon spotting Reese he broke into a slight jog, and, smiling widely, he came up to her and sat down on the spot next to her on the bench she was occupying. "Hey, Reese," he said, leaning in and giving her a kiss on the lips. She returned the kiss happily.
"Sup. So... What ya got planned for today?" She asked, leaning her head onto his shoulder as he settled onto the bench.
"Well, I was thinking... I would introduce you to some more of my friends." Reese seemed to grow hesitant at that.
"Oh, uh, yeah, that sounds fun! But I don't really think Pyrrha liked me, and that kind of makes me nervous about meeting more of them."
Jaune blinked. Pyrrha didn't exactly show any type of negative emotions toward Reese upon meeting her for the first time, but the kiss might have put a damper on that. However, Reese didn't exactly stick around to see the aftermath of said kiss.
"How do you know?" Jaune asked.
"Call it a feeling I got from her... she seemed to want to do bad things to me. I could see it in her eyes." Reese shuddered. "I would not want to go up against her either... the invincible Pyrrha Nikos. I would be flattened in a second dude."
"Well, I can assure you that my other friends will like you. Well, three of them might. One of them takes a bit of warming up to. She's a bit... frigid."
"I'm down. If you like 'em I'm sure I'll do too. I have one request for you though, Jaune. Later today, after I've met your friends and we've done whatever else you've planned, can you come with me to see my teammate Arslan? I really want you two to meet."
"Of course, it's not fair that you've met my team and I haven't met yours, after all," Jaune said with a grin that Reese adopted within seconds.
"Sweet! I hope you're ready for tonight too, I want to have our round two as soon as possible~..." Jaune couldn't help but laugh at the sexy look Reese was trying to pull off. How this girl could be this dorky when she wanted to look sexy and yet be the most sensual being he'd ever seen while in bed he had no idea, but her expression was far too cute for him to not lean in kiss her again.
Unfortunately, it had to be a short one, Jaune had packed their day pretty tight and they didn't have much time to just down and explore each other's mouths. He broke the kiss and took Reese's hand, leading her towards where he knew team RWBY would be.
The library was not at all packed, a fact that Jaune was eternally happy about at the point in time. He decided to just not mention who his friends were and hope everything went smoothly. As he approached the location of both team's usual tables, he saw team RWBY doing their usual thing, which was whatever the heck they did when they couldn't decide on what to do. Reese's eyes widened slightly as he approached the table.
"Jaune!" Ruby called out happily, glad that she finally had an outlet for her boredom. Yang, Weiss, and Blake all looked up from what they were doing, and Weiss went back to filing her nails with a disinterested look on her face. Though, she was smiling, and not attempting to hide that fact.
"Hey, Rubes! I have someone I would like you guys to meet! Officially, because you guys have met before." He turned to Reese, who stepped out from behind him with a chill smile on her face.
"Yo!" She said with a wave.
Blake's mouth turned up in a smirk, but when she spoke her voice wasn't a haughty one. "Skater-girl. Or Reese. I remember you. What are you doing hanging around Jaune?"
Reese was grateful Blake didn't bring up how she had kicked her ass during the tournament, that wound still stung a bit, but she wasn't sour. They had been beaten, fair and Square, so now they just had to train to get stronger. She opened her mouth to speak, but before she could there was a blur of red and suddenly she was face to face with one Ruby Rose.
"Was it you who stole Jaune yesterday!"
For a moment neither Jaune or Reese did anything before their faces split into matching grins, and Yang suddenly got very interested.
"Yeah, stole him right out from under your noses!" Her smug smirk actually made Ruby laugh a bit. "In all seriousness, that was me. Jaune came up and talked to me and the rest was like clockwork." She shrugged, but the large smile on her face told them all that she thought it was one of the best things to happen to her. "We just kind of hung out all day, and lost track of time. That was my fault honestly, I was like, Jaune you should get on a skateboard, and he was all like no, I'll suck at it. He did, make no mistake he was absolutely terrible, but he's so stubborn he just kept trying. For a long time too. I blame him, actually, now that I think about it."
"So surprising," Weiss said in a teasing voice. "Jaune has no balance." Ruby snickered at that and Jaune sent her a playful glare.
"So, I heard from a certain someone that totally wasn't Nora that you two got a room in a hotel because you missed the last bullhead..." Yang said, getting all up in Jaune business.
"We got rooms." Jaune corrected.
"Sure, but then one of those rooms had to have been empty~..." this was the kind of stuff Yang lived for and she knew there would come oh so many chances for her to tease Jaune, even if she was secretly glad he had managed to get a girlfriend. She liked the guy, he had a charm to him, and him finding someone was very cute, but that didn't make him immune to her teasing. "Someone that isn't Nora tells me she heard both of you in the morning after she had to get Ms Goodwitch to override-call you scroll~..."
Reese and Jaune shared a look as the blond brawler finished her teasing speech, both of them smiling again before Jaune threw his arm around Reese's shoulders. They weren't ashamed of what they had done or what they were, though Jaune did want to keep is speech censured as long as Ruby was there.
Reese did not share the same sentiment it seemed. "Yeah, I'm a bit sour about that, Jaune's chest was very comfortable to sleep on after all, and I was kinda sore from the night before~."
"What were you doing the night befor- OH!" Ruby blushed a light shade of red, growing suddenly uncomfortable being where she was. Jaune too shared in that feeling.
"Oh, oh no, Reese why..." Jaune mumbled, she sent him a curious look, but the look turned to one of understanding as she turned back to face the others. Blake had her face firmly in her hand, and Weiss was looking wide eyed at Yang as if she were going to explode. And indeed, it seemed that Yang was going to explode after all. She was shaking very, very fast, and the look of pure joy on her face was terrifying to Reese.
"You better run..." Said Blake solemnly.
"W-why?" Reese asked.
"Because," Jaune said, "you've just given the girl with a gun for a mouth all the ammunition she could ever need."
Yang grinned a wicked grin and laughed in the most evil manner possible. "So now I just need to know one thing, and I will have everything I need to cause destruction everywhere I go... who's the bottom, and who's the top in this relationship?"
"Oh, we're not in a relationship," Reese said. And then Yang's whole world came tumbling down.
Now it was Weiss and Blake's turn to get interested. This was romance and drama, their favorite combination. Though, neither of them wanted to ask the obvious question out of fear for Ruby's innocence.
Fortunately, Ruby herself asked their question for them, "But if you're not together together why did you... y-you know... do the thing ...?"
Jaune laughed awkwardly as the hand not currently resting on Reese's shoulder twitched, clearly wanting to travel up to the back of his head. "Well... we're... how do I..." he had no clue how to explain this to Ruby of all people. His team? Sure, they understood him, but Ruby was an innocent cinnamon roll too precious for this world and he doubted she would get it if he just repeated what he had said the day before.
"It's quite simple, actually," Reese began, one of her hands moving up to Jaune's cheek, "I like Jaune, Jaune likes me, so were a thing. Just Watch." Jaune understood what she meant by her words, and he let her guide him down into a deep kiss by the hand on his cheek.
Ruby understood everything she said, which had surprised Jaune. But Ruby was a very accepting person, who just accepted things as they were, which he understood to be an amazing quality. She blushed and looked away from the interaction, feeling somewhat jealous of the fact that this person Jaune had known for so little time was kissing him and not someone who had known him for months. For example: Her. She was just a bit jealous though. Just a bit. Not too much.
"That's great, I'm glad you're happy Jaune." Blake said as Jaune and Reese broke apart, smiling in the way she always did. Weiss however, looked terribly conflicted, which Jaune expected. Her expression morphed several times into many different emotions that he couldn't tell what they were, and then she just shook her head and focused back onto her nails. Nail care, Jaune knew, was just what she did when she didn't know what to do or say. It was her defense mechanism in a way.
"Yeah," Weiss mumbled. "Really great."
"I think it's cool," Ruby said finally. "It's like, whatever, and there's no drama involved! I hate relationship drama, it's such an overused cliché."
'Oh Ruby... you poor, lost lamb... you don't know what you're talking about...' Blake thought as she watched Jaune smile at them. She liked Jaune, he was a very non-judgmental person and she respected that about him, but she too felt a twinge of jealousy in her heart. Jaune had become very appealing to look at, in her opinion, and someone staking claim, albeit loosely, to that butt of his was not something she had wanted to happen. She wasn't sure if she like liked him, but in the end she couldn't help but feel a little miffed that Reese had taken him off the market.
"So, if this is an open relationship then, can I have a go at Jaune~?" Yang's voice didn't nearly holds as much of its teasing tone. She was confused. She had never been good at relationships in the first place, but this open relationship business was completely foreign to her.
"I won't mind." Reese answered with a grin, glancing up at the now blushing Jaune. "I know Jaune likes me, so as long as there are no feelings involved and Jaune wants to as well I say go for it. He'll rock your world, I'm sure."
This seemed to break Yang even more. She really had no interest in hopping into bed with Jaune at the current moment, that was more a test than anything. The fact that they liked each other, potentially even loved each other, enough to do things, and that they were being so lovey dovey towards each other but weren't in a solid, stable relationship... it pissed her off actually. A lot. It wasn't... normal. At least, it wasn't what she was raised to believe could happen. "Y-you just... don't care? You wouldn't care if I... just straddled Jaune right now and he took me to brown town?" Yang asked, her right eye twitching slightly.
"Nope," was the only answer she got, and Jaune looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there. Ruby seemed to have the same idea, and grabbed him by the arm, dragging him to safety behind a few bookshelves where they could safely watch things from a distance. Socially awkward peeps had to look out for one another after all.
"You wouldn't care if I just pulled his pants down and started-"
"Nope, not at all!" Reese answered with a big smile on her face. Yang laughed, and both of her eyes twitched rapidly as her laughter ascended to maddening levels before she calmed down completely.
"I see... I see... Interesting..."
Reese only kept smiling, before turning to Blake and Weiss after a moment, "I'm fine with you two taking Jaune for a spin too, by the way."
Both Blake and Weiss turned beet red, Blake hiding her face behind the nearest book within arm's reach while Weiss began spluttering like a man talking in tongues. And that was the straw that broke the camel's back, or, in this case, the Yang's mind.
The blond let out an angry shriek before grabbing the heaviest book she could find on the table they were sat at and beginning to smash said book repeatedly into her face. "YOU," smash, "TWO," smash, "DON'T," smash, "MAKE," smash, "ANY," smash, "SENSE!" She screamed, not stopping her self inflicted facial assault until a pair of strong hands covered her own, keeping the book from causing more cranial damage, and she found semblance of hope. "JAUNE!" Her head whipped towards the owner of the hands covering her own and Jaune almost jumped back in fright at the insane glint in Yang's eyes. "WOULD YOU FUCK ME IF REESE ALLOWED IT!?" As long as Reese was the only crazy one in this thing they called an open relationship Yang would be able to sleep at night.
"I-I-I mean I uh... hahHAH- I fu-I shi- I mean... maybe...? It depends on whether or not you would want to... do that. Thing. And stuff." Jaune sputtered out nervously, clearly trying, and failing, not to die. Yang sat the book down on the table and calmly walked away from all of them, her hope being destroyed in a spectacular ball of fire.
"This is it, the world has gone mad because I no longer understand it," she said peacefully, drawing in a deep breath and casting her face down to the floor. "I'm going to go to the dorm, I need to think and maybe take a nice bath at the same time. Yeah, that sounds nice..." She kept on mumbling crazily to herself as she left the library. And just as she turned a corner, she turned and made her way back, stopping in front of Jaune. "No, by the way." That was all she said before she left for real.
Everyone present just sat and stood still, taking in what had just occurred. "Well, that was a thing." Blake said, going back to reading her book.
"Yep." Weiss agreed, the blush still present on her face, as she went back to doing her nails.
"You remember what I said before? About relationship drama? I take it back. It's even worse than I originally thought, and now it seems inescapable," Ruby said, coming out from behind the bookshelf as well.
"So these are my friends!" Jaune said happily, to a dazed and very much shocked Reese, slapping his hands together and rubbing them like nothing had happened.
The rest of the day, at least for Jaune and Reese, was spent in a far more... calm way. They walked around the festival stands, stopping at those Jaune had picked out as the 'cool' ones, and both of them enjoyed spending the time together immensely. Jaune's schedule, however, was ruined. First there was the meeting with RWBY, which had gone on for far longer than he had planned, followed by the unplanned stops at the stalls and stands Reese liked, which he didn't mind because they were probably more fun to her than the ones he had picked out, and finally the fact that Reese wanted to take every chance she got to kiss him for as long as possible.
Though Jaune didn't mind the last one. They kissed when they ate, they kissed when either of them won a game, and they kissed when whenever Reese decided Jaune looked extra cute. All which happened a lot.
Needless to say, it was far more fun than Jaune ever could have planned, and in the end they found themselves back on the bench they had met at earlier that day, both licking happily at their third shared ice-cream cone.
"Weren't you going to take me to meet your team leader?" Jaune asked, taking another lick.
Reese took another lick as well, 'stealthily' trying to time her licks just right so that she could get away with an 'accidental' make out session. She pulled back from the cone, however, when Jaune mentioned her plans.
"Oh, that's right... after we finish this. Though, it's probably too late to do much of anything else after that..." she sent him an apologetic look, which he countered with a kiss.
"I don't care," he said, "I got to spend the day with you." Jaune's lips were sweetened by their shared treat, and she wasn't satisfied with that small taste of affection. She went back in, and prolonged it as much as she could, wanting to show him that she appreciated his sweet comment.
"You're cheesy as fuck dude."
"You love it," he replied with a dopey grin. She couldn't argue with him.
After they finished their ice-cream and thoroughly cleaned each other's mouths with their tongues, Reese grabbed Jaune's hand, leading him towards her team's temporary lodgings.
Jaune was excited to meet someone else from Reese's team, though, if Arslan was as motherly as Reese had described he feared she would kick his ass for touching one of her teammates, like in some of those dumb TV shows his mom used to force him to watch with her.
"Oh Arslan~!" Reese sang as she opened the door to her and Arslan's room, Jaune feeling kinda jealous that the room only had two beds instead of four, though he could understand since the foreign students wouldn't have any other place to store their gear. "I've got someone I want you to meet~!"
Arslan turned to meet Reese, and her face lit up at the sight of Jaune. She had been wanting to meet him. But then it fell, knowing full well what Reese was doing. "Hey, Reese. And you must be Jaune." Jaune nodded and extended his hand, and... well, let's just say that Jaune's hand might need a bit of recuperation after their handshake. He winced and rubbed his hand in what he hoped was a discreet way.
"It's a pleasure to finally meet you." Arslan internally cursed at his choice of words. Not that he knew, if she knew Reese well enough. "Reese has talked a lot about you."
"And she you." Perhaps a bit too much. "I'm just glad she found someone that makes her happy."
Jaune smiled and Arslan felt her heart skip a beat. It wasn't just that since the moment he appeared she hadn't been able to not imagine him being shirtless, the way Jaune smiled too was quite frankly... the cutest and yet most handsome thing she had laid eyes on in a long time. Now that she could see him up close instead of from the stands while his team had fought, Arslan could actually take in the full 'package' that was Jaune. His broad shoulders, his adorable smile, his tall stature, his strong looking arms, his more boyish features, and those eyes... Arslan was very tempted to smack Reese upside the head with a rolled up newspaper for not warning her about Jaune's "eyes". 'There's no way someone can have as blue and seemingly bottomless eyes as this guy, it's impossible.' She thought as she fought to not get lost in them.
All in all, Jaune was certainly pleasant to look at, but had Arslan not know so many... details about him already she doubted she would have been checking him out this thoroughly, whether it be consciously or not. Reese grinning in such a smug way also didn't help…
Arslan sent Reese a small look that, basically, said 'you were right.' Of course, Reese already knew this. She had been keeping a careful eye on Arslan the whole time, and she saw all those glances. "So, Jaune... I have to say I was impressed by your team's strength. Specifically, that Valkyrie girl." It was really the only topic Arslan could think of to get her mind off of all the things she wanted to do to him, because MAN was that list growing in size every second.
As someone who had had a moderate interest in romance and sex in her life, Arslan was about as normal with this kind of stuff as you could get. But she was also a teenager, as every first year at Haven and Beacon were, and she was susceptible to the allures of such things. That is to say, sometimes she had fallen into a hole of perversion and had trouble getting out. And this was one of those holes. As the conversation continued on, her mind just got increasingly more sexual.
If she didn't shoo Reese and Jaune out of the dorm soon, she was going to go crazy. She just couldn't stop thinking about what Reese had said. Was his tongue really so amazing? Were his lips really so soft? She just couldn't stop imagining his handsome, adorable face between her legs once she started, licking and sucking, making her crazy from pleasure. She needed them out, now. And then she was going to take a very cold, mind clearing shower.
While Reese was finding Arslan's expressions, and how she kept trying to sneakily rub her legs together, incredibly entertaining, she wasn't cruel enough to have her suffer... for much longer, at least. Before she kissed Jaune goodbye she needed to hit the loo for a moment, both to take a tinkle and to take another picture for Jaune to make up for not being able to fulfill her promise about a round two.
"Jaune, I need to head to the bathroom for a moment, and Arslan... go for it... a kiss at least~..." she said with a wink to Arslan and a kiss on the cheek to Jaune.
Jaune watched her depart with a blush on his face, wondering just why on earth she encouraged everyone to try their luck with him. Not that he was going to complain, as a guy, but at the same time, he did wonder...
"Uh..." Arslan wasn't really sure how to get away from the break in conversation that Reese had created. "I-"
"If you don't want to, don't worry about it. She's been encouraging all my friends to do the same," he said with a laugh. Arslan wondered just why on earth she was even worrying about this. She was Arslan Altan for crying out loud, named after the lion! She was supposed to be fierce, and take what she wanted! But still, the one thing that had kept her from doing just that was that Jaune and Reese still had feelings for one another. Otherwise... She didn't think she would have still done nothing this far into meeting him. Her best friend was trying to get her laid for fuck's sake, and she was horny as all hell.
Arslan watched as Jaune took a seat on Reese's bed, giving her another one of those damned smiles of his, while she herself remained standing where she was. Her mind was waging a war with her body, and she felt terribly uncertain. She wanted the stress relief, and she was certainly physically attracted to Jaune, but just... "going for it" with an almost complete stranger was so lewd. To her it felt dirty, and not really in the good way... but even still, just a kiss wouldn't be bad, right? Just a small, quick one, maybe even platonic...
'I can't believe I'm doing this...' she thought solemnly as she sat herself down next to Jaune on the bed, 'But it couldn't hurt, right? And Reese did say he knew what he was doing with his tongue...' she could feel Jaune shift uneasily on the bed beside her, and when his hand accidentally brushed her thigh she couldn't help but throw caution to the wind. With her eyes firmly closed in an attempt to hide her embarrassment, Arslan turned her head towards Jaune and pushed her lips nervously against his.
What Arslan was expecting she didn't really know. There wasn't much to the kiss at all, it was just a kiss, like you would give a family member or a close friend. There were no feelings of pleasure or happiness mixed in with the simple action, it was just something that she was doing. It wasn't bad by any means, she didn't hate it. It certainly felt nice, as all types of simple affection did. But it wasn't anything special.
Jaune himself felt pretty much the same as she did, it was just a kiss. It wasn't like it was when he kissed Reese, no, it was very different. But again, it wasn't bad. It felt nice in a different way. Both of them slightly hesitant, but not un-wanting, pushed closer to together, and Jaune's hands found her sides and outer thighs.
She sighed into the kiss, noticing that Reese was telling the truth about his lips. They were soft. Terribly soft, actually. Her arms went around his shoulders and behind his head, and she gasped and jumped slightly as his tongue swiped across her lips. Despite the fact that there were no feelings behind their actions, it felt good... too good to not want to keep going.
She opened her mouth to let Jaune's tongue venture into and meet her own, and the spark when the wet appendages met was certainly a nice one. Unconsciously, she leaned into Jaune's touch on her thigh and hip, nudging herself even closer to him on the bed so that her breasts nearly brushed against his broad chest. Her eyes remained closed, but no longer was it out of embarrassment, now it was because the kiss felt... good. She couldn't help but hum contently against Jaune's lips, her arms on his shoulders moving up to his neck before she tightened her grip slightly and brought them even closer together.
Jaune felt kind of happy that Arslan had decided to forgo her combat attire and switched out her pants for a pair of shorts so that he could feel the soft skin of her thigh beneath his hand. He found the girl to be very beautiful, much like every girl he met these days it seemed, in a unique and exotic sort of way, but he still found Reese to be more attractive... though he might be slightly biased in that regard. His hand still on Arslan's hips lightly played with the hem of her shirt and couldn't resist gently running his fingers along the sliver of exposed, darkened skin.
The feeling of his fingers touching her skin made Arslan's heart jump to her throat, and she couldn't help but crawl closer to him. Unfortunately their position forced Jaune back, and he fell into the bed with Arslan on top of him. She let out a moan as things got more intense, as Jaune's fingers traced more of her skin, and his hand found its way to her inner thigh and her legs closed around it.
The fact that she didn't really know Jaune made the situation all the sweeter to her, even if, as she thought before, it made the situation more lewd. She didn't care anymore, she knew what she wanted. She basically agreed with everything that Reese had told her, she wanted to experience everything she had told her in person.
Reese came out of the bathroom with a smile but froze upon noticing exactly what position Jaune and Arslan were in. "Well that was fast..." she mumbled. She was at a loss for what to do. If she should interrupt them or not. They did seem to be way into it.
For a moment she just watched them make out, noting how different Jaune's movements were from when he usually kissed her. Sure, he was kissing someone, which in most cases was seen as a romantic act of affection, but his behavior wasn't... caring-like. He wasn't cupping Arslan's cheek, he wasn't playing with her hair, he was just kissing and touching her in a way that spoke of desire rather than romance. She found it very interesting, even if she was the one suggesting they kissed in the first place.
It wasn't before the need for air for both participants became too great that Jaune and Arslan's lips parted, a string of saliva still connecting them for a moment, both of them panting and for the first time looking into the other's eyes. Arslan's golden gaze was burning with lust and desire, plus maybe a smidgen of affection, and Jaune's cobalt eyes held much the same, though the ferocity of it wasn't as great. It wasn't until then that Arslan noticed just how high her shirt had hiked up, or how close to her core Jaune's hand was between her legs. Or how excited she was.
Reese let out a low whistle, alerting her teammate and something-friend of her presence, grinning at the two as they turned to look at her.
"Wipe that smile off your face," Arslan mumbled, her face as hot as her body was. Neither really moved, though they felt like they should. The pull to do something was so great that they both just stayed in that position for another small moment before breaking away. Arslan crawled away from Jaune, and got off of the bed and made her way into the bathroom that Reese had previously occupied. She shut the door behind her and looked into the mirror. Her entire face was beat red, and her hair was wet with sweat. Her clothes were sticking to her body as well, and she could feel her burning sex demand more. She couldn't give it what it wanted anymore though. She let out a sigh and twisted the knob on the sink in the direction that would yield her cold relief. She splashed it on her face as her thoughts fought to go back to Jaune. "Later, okay? Since when have I become so insatiable?" She laughed herself.
Outside of the bathroom, Jaune was still gasping for air as Reese took the spot of Arslan. On top of him, that is. "So, things go well?" She asked with a giggle, and Jaune's deadpan response rewarded him with even more giggles. "So how was it?" She asked, somewhat seriously.
"It was... interesting. It wasn't as good, but it was still fun. You should try it." She blushed.
"Maybe. But... finding someone that I actually want to do that with is kind of hard. I thought I was broken until I met you."
"Broken? You could never be broken, no one can. You just have to figure yourself out."
"Well, I'm close to doing that now. Thanks to you. I'm sorry I interrupted you." Her voice turned quiet. "I know you two probably wanted to go all the way... it's just... pretty soon I won't be here and I want to be with you again before that happens." Jaune kissed her.
"It's okay, I would choose you over anyone any day."
"I promise, I'll let you guys have some time together before we go back though," she said with a wink.
Jaune only laughed and quickly stole another kiss from her lips, noting how much more... real a kiss with Reese felt. One of his hand found her cheek and he felt Reese's hands grab a hold of his hair as her tongue invaded his mouth.
Neither of them noticed the door to the bathroom open slightly or the golden eye that peeked through the crack to observe their tongue battle, the owner of said eye imagining herself in Reese's position... again, before deciding that a very, very, very cold shower would be all kinds of perfect for her. And for the fire within her loins.
'Jaune Arc... what have you done to my sweet, innocent little Reese... and to sweet, innocent little me...'
Jaune felt even happier than he had that morning. Everything was awesome. Reese, their something... okay maybe that was it, but for him that was enough to make everything retroactively awesome too! He was on his way back from Reese and Arslan's room after bidding his something-friend goodnight with a very nice and long kissing session and he felt so good he wanted to go up to the roof and just watch the sunset. He had wanted, and offered, to take Reese with him, but apparently she needed to talk to Arslan about something after she finished her shower that she started sometime while he and Reese were making out.
He hadn't expected to run into Yang, of all people, though, and he certainly hadn't expected that she would drag him up to the roof with an almost manic look in her eyes.
"I've been trying to figure out you and Reese this whole day, I have thought, and thought, and thought, and for the life of me I just don't understand it, I just don't GET IT! And MAYBE, just maybe... that's my fault. So I'm going to ask you something. Do you have feelings for Reese?" Jaune didn't even need to think about the answer to that.
"Yes."
"And she has feelings for you?"
"Yes."
"Then answer me this one thing, WHY AREN'T YOU TWO IN A RELATIONSHIP?!" The sudden raise in her volume and pitch scared the absolute hell out of Jaune, who jumped back, feeling threatened.
"Well uh, I don't know, we just don't want to be? Yang, we're only doing what feels right to us. Isn't that how relationships are supposed to be?"
"Yes! And no! You two are doing some things right, but then you're doing so many other things wrong! And I don't understand!"
"Um... we're happy, isn't that enough?" He asked carefully, backing away even further as Yang's eyes turned red and he felt the temperature around the two of them increase.
"NO! YOU'RE NOT BEING LOGICAL! HOW CAN YOU AND REESE BE FINE WITH FUCKING SOMEONE ELSE AND YET STILL FEEL FEELINGS TOWARDS EACH OTHER!?"
Jaune was starting to get scared, he doubted he would survive if Yang suddenly went supernova on his ass, and he wanted to stay alive so that Reese could continue liking his ass. "We just know where we stand!" He shrieked in a very manly way as Yang started advancing towards him. "You can sleep with someone without having any feelings aside from attraction towards them!"
"I KNOW THAT! BUT THAT'S NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE IF YOU ALREADY LIKE SOMEONE!"
All went completely silent as Jaune's scroll went off in his pocket, Yang's eyes turned back to their normal shade of lilac, but her face remained angry. "Who. Was. That."
Jaune slowly, carefully reached into his pocket and pulled out his scroll, and upon opening it he gulped.
"R-Ruby?"
Yang's eyes narrowed. "Ruby's asleep Jaune, she had an exhausting day so she went to sleep earlier than everyone else... So I'm going to ask again. Who... is... THAT?" He looked back down at the scroll again, and then slowly looked at the exit to the stairwell.
"Uh... Pyrrha?"
"It's Reese, isn't it. And what did she say to you, Jaune?"
"... goodnight?"
"I heard the text notification, Jaune. I know there's a photo along with whatever she wrote..." Jaune's back hit the wall as Yang began to prowl towards him, her mad eyes locked on his scroll. "What did she send you, Jaune?"
"A selfie...?" Jaune suggested weakly as Yang practically towered over him, her hand reaching out to take his scroll from his grasp. He didn't know what Reese had sent him, but if it was anything like the pictures she had taken for him yesterday he'd prefer to keep the private. That's why he decided to do something only an Arc man not in battle could think of.
He threw himself to the side, quickly beginning to crawl towards the door on his hands and knees before a pair of strong thighs and buttocks landed on his completely exposed back.
"Give me the scroll, Jaune..."
"OVER MY DEAD BODY!" He shouted, immediately regretting his choice of words. Her hands quickly grabbed the scroll out of his, and he just gave up and let out a defeated sigh. The thing that Jaune had not anticipated, was that the pictures would be much worse than the last batch. Indeed, no longer were there just pictures of Reese's breasts, that wouldn't have been so terrible for Yang to see. No... they had to be much more lascivious in nature.
When Yang opened the pictures, she started blushing like crazy, upset at her pansexual self for being so damn weak to sexual images. Pictures of Reese spreading her legs, revealing her very wet, and open pussy to the camera, pictures of her in very compromising positions, bent over the side of a bathtub with her ass sticking out; her biting her lips with her fingers actually inside of her.
But one picture stood out from the others... a very different picture that Yang didn't like at all. One that didn't include Reese whatsoever, and was in fact just sent as soon as she started looking at said images. From an unknown scroll... who said scroll belonged to was obvious as soon as she opened the attached image.
"Jaune... why the hell did you just get a picture of a naked and presumably newly showered Arslan Altan...?"
For a moment, Jaune actually forgot just how dangerous his situation was, his curious mind taking over. "Really? Can I see?" His insolence earned him a hard smack on the back of the head.
"Answer the question, Jaune..." Yang, in her slightly insane state, was very much willing to turn Jaune's head into chunky salsa if he didn't obey her.
"Ouch!" Jaune whined, catching a glimpse of the picture on his scroll as he turned his head up towards Yang. Lots and lots of soft looking dark skin greeted his eyes, along with the realization that yes, Arslan's blonde hair was indeed natural. "One kiss and you're already sending me nudes, Arslan? Not that I'm complaining..." he accidentally thought out loud.
Yang didn't exactly know how to process this information. What was she supposed to do about this? What could she do? Absolutely nothing, she realized. There was nothing she could do at all. She was raised right, properly, or so she liked to believe. She had developed all of her views on her own. She learned everything herself through trial and error, and she was proud of that.
But this? She had no experience in any of this, and it didn't feel natural to her. It felt the exact opposite. And what was she doing now? Because she didn't understand it? She was hurting her friend. She looked down at the scared shitless Jaune and gave a sigh. She couldn't keep this up. Even if she did think that Jaune and Reese were crazy, this wasn't her business. She could easily avoid all of this. It wasn't her life.
With a heavy heart, she looked at all of those absolutely erotic pictures and burned them into her memory, because why the fuck not, and then handed Jaune the scroll again. She felt the need to apologize, even if her pride was telling her not to.
"Sorry, Jaune, I don't know what came over me..." she muttered, feeling slightly ashamed. Though she seemed to forget about how she was still sitting on Jaune's back as she thought.
Jaune gratefully accepted his scroll, deciding that it might be time to get a new password for unlocking it. "It's okay, Yang. Everyone goes a little crazy sometimes, right?" He said in what he hoped was a comforting tone, patting on of Yang's thigh reassuringly at an awkward angle. He didn't really mind having her sitting on him, her butt did feel very nice pressed against his back after all, and it wasn't like he had anywhere else he needed to be at the moment.
Yang broke out of her thoughts for a moment, looking down disbelievingly at her fellow blonde beneath her. "You're really way too forgiving..." her words were merely met by a big grin.
"That's just who I am. It's not like you committed murder." He said cheerily. 'Even though you very well could have...'
Yang didn't move but smiled back at him. Feeling glad that Jaune didn't want to stop being her friend because of her mental breakdown.
"I just don't get it. I'm sorry, but I don't. And maybe I should just accept that." Jaune though that if Reese had been there, she would have said something along the lines of 'I know something that could help.' Of course that just made him think about kissing Yang. Which made their position a whole lot more awkward. For him. Maybe next time he and Reese do something he'd ask her to be a bit more rough...
"That's okay. Everyone thinks differently, right? We all have things we don't understand. Like Nora. No one understands Nora. Not even Ren." Yang laughed at that comparison.
But with her laughter came movement, and with her movement came the realization that she was still straddling Jaune's back. Jaune's warm and admittedly comfortable ba- 'No! Bad brain! Don't enable them!'
She got climbed off and helped Jaune up as well, assisting in dusting him off as well, getting a chance to feel his muscles through his shi- 'What the fuck did I just say about enabling them! For fuck's sake, brain, you're useless!'
Jaune gave her one last toothy grin, not unlike one of her own, before heading out, leaving Yang to berate her brain as the sun fully set after another day at Beacon.
