Lilac: First Love
Blake Belladonna had never loved anyone.
Sure, back when she was in the White Fang, she was partners with Adam. Though Adam was someone who gave very little attention to Blake nor anyone else. He distanced himself greatly from people, which worried Blake as she was growing up. But she slowly got used to the cold shoulder she received from Adam almost everyday. Blake wanted to love Adam, for all he had helped her with. But it was a different type of love.
When she had left the White Fang, there was a slight pain in her chest. The moment when she said good-bye to Adam and decided to become a huntress to use her skills for the better good. Adam had always been good to her, and this was how she repaid him. Blake knew it was the right decision.
Blake had miraculously entered Beacon Academy, joined a team by the name of RWBY (Ruby) and made friends. She still hid her faunus heritage under a bow. It wasn't until the Schnee heiress had made a clear point of her disdain for her race, something Blake had been deeply offended by. And just like her semblance, Blake ran.
And it was that night, where Blake had met him.
Earlier that day, Sun Wukong didn't make a good impression at all. He stowed away on a ship, ran away from the police and seemed to cause so much trouble. His type of personality was what made Weiss hate the faunus. But Blake later learned on that Sun, despite his love for mischief, wasn't the type of person Blake had initially thought he was. He took her in, when she had no one, when she was unsure whether her team was understanding enough to accept her as the faunus she was.
"I knew you'd look better without the bow." Sun was different.
When he had first sped past Blake, he gave her a sly wink. Blake had thought it was just because he was trying to impress her or something. It didn't occur to her that he knew what she hid under her bow. That night, Sun had told her that she looked better without the bow, something no one has ever told her. Even though this was the second time they encountered, Sun had appreciated her for who she was, and that she was better without the fact that she had to hide who she was.
And for those two days, despite only giving him small talk and weird looks, Sun stood by her. He stole her food in the middle of the night, even though he was completely capable of paying for it. Blake had tried to keep her distance from him, unsure if whether she was supposed to side with him or not. The very same weekend, Sun had helped Blake overthrow a huge dust shipment before she was reunited with her team.
It was that weekend where she-
"Blake?" a tap landed on her shoulder. Blake snapped out of her thoughts. She looked over her shoulder to see a familiar blonde monkey faunus smiling at her. Blake looked back at her unfinished notes and closed her notebook. "What are you doing? You seemed to space out for a while there..." a hint of concern in his voice.
"It's nothing Sun." she replied monotonously, keeping her belongings in her bag. She stood up and walked with Sun. It was only later on when Blake had discovered that Sun was a student visiting from Haven, in Vale for the Vytal festival. When she learned of this, she didn't know if she was supposed to be happy or sad. She was comfortable around him, the same way she was comfortable with Adam. It would be a waste if he was only something temporary.
"So, Weiss told Neptune that there was this nice restaurant in downtown Vale, and he invited your team to join us." he smiled at her. "You weren't with your team so I decided to come get you."
"How did you know where I was?" Blake glanced up at him for a second, raising an eyebrow.
Sun replied with a soft laugh. "I just know."
Blake knew she had a lot to learn more about Sun and that he was dying to know more about her. She knew from the start with Adam, that their relationship, though professional, was never going to work. But with Sun, it was different. He understood her better than most people, and he was proud to say that he was the only one who could easily coax a smile from her. Blake didn't want to admit to whatever was making her stomach churn at the moment. But if there was one thing she knew in the short time that she'd been with Sun...
He was her first love.
