Prompt 4: Snuggles
It was probably the worst way for Yang to discover their relationship, but Weiss accepted that life with Ruby was always going to be unpredictable, if she lived that long. Sexual references, not explicit. Ruby underage since this is close to series timeline. ~600w
A bit tangential on the prompt, this comes a couple of days after the pregnancy scene previously posted. It should stand alone ok, will probably become part of Weiss's way, but for those who prefer a less controversial setting it also works (delete "...a lot of sex") after "For Her"/"Reading the Signs". Note at the end for those that feel they moved too fast.

Weiss sighed contentedly as she lay in the dimly lit room with Ruby's sleeping body pressed up against her. Something had woken her, but she found herself quickly distracted by the sheer bliss of her current situation.
"We finally had sex", she thought with a smile. No, that wasn't right. She'd had a lot of sex, this was something else. "We made love", she smiled more widely and planted a gentle kiss on Ruby's neck.
The dim light seemed to flicker, and she frowned. It was strange, they didn't have a fire. Suddenly alert she scanned the room and what she saw made her mouth go dry.
"Yang" it was a strangled whisper. Not an ideal reunion. She didn't have a lot to go on, but it seemed likely the fiery blonde would not be thrilled by the idea of someone screwing her underage sister.
Yang was sitting on the second bed in the room. The conspicuously empty second bed. Her Aura was glowing brightly, but her eyes weren't red, which seemed like a good sign.
"I just got in. Qrow said Ruby would be in here"
"Right", Weiss turned back to Ruby, careful to keep the sheet pulled up, since revealing that they were both naked didn't seem likely to improve the situation. She nudged her partner gently
"Ruby" The younger girl just grunted and snuggled up against her more closely. The temptation to kiss her was difficult to resist..
"Ruby, wake up"
She didn't move much but this time she spoke
"Weiss?"
Under the sheet she caressed Ruby's shoulder, waiting for her to regain alertness.
"Again?" she giggled "You're insatiable!" She didn't sound like she thought that was a bad thing, but Weiss wasn't sure how Yang would take it.
"Ruby, Yang is here"
"Yang?" Ruby finally lifted her head up to look around the room. "Yang!" Without warning she threw back the sheet, leapt out of bed, and embraced her sister. Weiss, exposed, hastily pulled on her nightdress.
"You just got here? How did you find us? How is dad? Your arm is cool, where did you get it? What did you do on the way?"
When there was finally a gap Yang spoke.
"Woah. I just wanted to check in before I crashed. We can talk later, in the morning. Um, with clothes"
Ruby released Yang and looked down at herself
"Oh. Right, yeah." She picked up her pyjamas from the floor and pulled them on before speaking again "Err, Weiss and me are together now"
"Really?" Yang raised her eyebrows and made a point of looking at Weiss sitting on the unmade bed.
"I really like her and she really likes me and we-"
"It's ok Rubes, I'm not upset"
Ruby let out a sigh of relief
"Oh good, because I really need to pee" with an apologetic glance at Weiss she dashed from the room.
Weiss looked nervously at Yang. She feared some overprotective sister threats may be coming her way.
"I love her" She felt a little guilty at saying the words. Not that they weren't entirely true, but that she hadn't yet managed to say them to Ruby directly.
"You came back to her"
There was a strange intensity to her words and Weiss sensed that she wasn't just thinking of her and Ruby. The unspoken faunus NOT in the room. She shifted a little uncomfortably... she'd come to where the fight was, though she had never doubted that was were Ruby would be too.
"You've been here beside her"
The "finally" of her earlier musings was literally 48 hours after their reunion, and only because things kept getting in the way. Weiss decided that little detail could wait. Especially since Yang had stood up and was now looming over her.
"You will be there for her, that is all I need to know" She bent over and enveloped Weiss in a crushing hug "It's good to see you, Princess"
~o~
A/N: I've done quite a lot of Yang's emotional issues making her over-protective, so I wanted to do a little of the opposite: being over-accepting. As a rule I'm not a great fan of the "leap into bed" genre, but Ruby and Weiss have spent a lot of time building trust before it was romantic, and as a partnership they are very much "doers", and that is even before the perilous "could die tomorrow" situation.
