Blake's POV:
Something weird was going on with Yang and just when she was about to tell me. Ice Queen came and ruined it. Aw well, I suppose it simply can not be helped. We returned home laughing and sharing stories of today's events; however, Yang refused to make eye contact with me. I was worried about her. Honestly, she is my best friend in the world. I couldn't imagine life without her, which is why I am worrying so much.
Damn it all, Yang Xiao Long, I swear if you don't cut this crap out I will use force to get answers out of you.
Yang and I were alone together since Weiss and Ruby went to the library to go catch up on some "studying." Yang sat on her bed, her beautiful blonde hair a hot mess.
"Yang… we need to talk." I say calmly, or at least as calm as a nervous wreck can be.
"Okay?" she fake laughs. "What's going on Blake-y"
"You have been acting weird lately, and not in your usual good way." I said breaking the awkward silence. "Is something wrong? Did something happen? What are you not telling me?"
"I just… just some stuff has been happening, okay? And yes, there is something that I'm not telling you. Honestly, I don't wish to tell you, not to be mean, but out of," she paused. Cautiously choosing her words, continued, "Hypothetical reasoning and caution."
"Yang, I'm your partner. We're not supposed to keep secrets," I say more concerned and hurt than ever.
"Oh, like you did and still do with your cat ears" she snaps. "Yeah, I know about how you see yourself as a monster but, it hurts those around you too. I hate seeing you put yourself down like that. I also know about you and that other Faunus boy what was his name? Sun, I think. You ran off and stayed with him the entire time. Putting him before your very own team and teammate. Like what the hell?! I see the way you look at him too. Blake I don't understand. I can't possibly understand why you're ashamed of your heritage, your history, yourself. It seriously pisses me off! I know humans can be cruel to Faunus but you aren't alone! You have Ruby, Weiss, you have me. Are we not enough?!"
Her eyes are no longer a lilac color, but rather a glossy crimson red. Her words sunk in and hit me, hard.I began to tear up, I looked up at her and saw tears streaming down her face.
"Am I not enough…?" She shook and whispered these four words quietly as if she were asking herself and not me.
"What do you mean?" I asked inching closer to her.
"Nothing just.." Yang wiped away the tears and pulled me into a careful hug. "Blake," she whispered. Her breath tickling my ear and neck, sending a pleasant shiver down my spine. "You're beautiful, you're intelligent, you're perfect. Don't ever think of yourself as any less. I'm sorry, but telling you could ruin our friendship. If I lost you Blake-y, I'd be broken and hollow. You're my teammate, my best friend, and my partner. I'm sorry, but I can't. I'm also sorry for snapping at you. You deserve the best, I clearly am too hot headed to give you that. Sorry..."
She let go of me and walked towards to door. Her hips swayed with less confidence, she looked like she was an emotional wreck.
"Stop!" I yelled.
Tears now rushed down my face. I can't take it anymore. Watching her walk away is breaking my heart, my mind, my soul. I feel like everything I love is leaving. I finally understand now. Why I can't stand when we're apart, why I always even up getting lost in her beautiful eyes, why I am so quick to be whisked away by whatever crazy scheme she has. It's all because I'm in love with her. Yes, the cowardly and emotionally burdening Blake Belladonna is hopelessly in love with her quirky, stunning, lovable partner. Then again, who the hell am I kidding? I don't have a chance with her.
Yang's POV:
I'm shocked by her tears. Absolutely petrified by the pain I caused her. Me! I did this. I'm an awful person. Blake will hate me forever now. I don't blame her. How could I do this to her? I totally just tried to turn this whole thing around on her and she didn't do a damn thing. I'm a failure…
"You say you're doing this for our friendship, but did you ever consider how I would feel? Or about the pain you're putting me through right now?" she screams at me desperately.
"B-Blake I-", I start, but am immediately cut off.
"No! And what the hell are you talking about?! The way I look at Sun?" she says, challenging my reasonings.
"You look at him the way I wish you would look at me! You look at him as something more than a friend. The way you look at him isn't how you look at me." I say countering the attack she verbally threw at me.
"Yang I have no clue what you're talking about." she says, clearly getting frustrated.
"For Dust's sake! Blake I know you're not stupid and can't be this dense. I just...I really like you." I yell back at her which starts softening into a faint whisper.
Dead silence.
Oh God! What have I done? I'm an idiot. I should have just left. I could've avoided this, but no. Goddamn it, I can't do anything right. I'm a failure as a teammate, a friend, but worst of all. I'm a failure as her partner.
"W-wh-what?" she stammers.
"I like you, as more than a friend okay. Ever since we became partners I liked you. I'm sorry. I really tried not to fall for you, but I couldn't help it. You're so amazing and cute and perfect. Heck who couldn't, who wouldn't fall for you? The reason I snapped about the way you look at Sun is because I'm jealous. He has the one thing in this entire world that I want. And that is you. I'm so naive to even a think a girl like you could possibly end up with me. Isn't that funny? I just thou- " I'm cut off my lips meeting my own. I was so caught up in self pity and crying I didn't even notice her face so close to mine.
Her lips tasted so sweet but our tears made it salty. Still it was the one taste in the world I would never forget. The sensation of her lips made me lose sense of time. I pulled away.
"Blake?" I question, my voice shaking from all the previous drama.
"Shhh. It's okay. I know how you feel. I feel the same way about you. It took me a while to figure out, but I like you too. I always did, I just didn't want to admit it. It's why watching you walk away was breaking my heart. Please don't leave me." she sniffles.
I didn't even have enough time to process what in the world was going on. She was so quick, before I could blink I was met with amber eyes. The same eyes that could see my soul and was all I desired. She closed her eyes and once again kissed me. Now that I knew what was going on I took control and wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her in closer. This time she pulled away. I panted lightly but not just from lack of oxygen. I had butterflies in my stomach and my lips were tingling with a sensation from hers. My face felt like it was on fire.
"I'm so sorry for all of this. I must look really dumb huh?" I say looking down.
"No you're not and I'm really surprised you like me Yang." she nervously stutters.
"Why is that?" I ask, stunned how this amazing girl is thinking I'm out of her league.
"Because you're so perfect and beautiful. You're so strong, confident, gorgeous, and perfect." she said simply with admiration.
"I'm hardly perfect," I snort. "And you said perfect twice."
"Yeah, I suppose it just proves how nervous I am. You have perfect hair, perfect body, perfect teeth, perfect skin, and perfect amount of curves." she winks at me.
Her wink causing me to blush more intensely. I stammer, "But you got all of those traits too and does this mean that you'll be my girlfriend?"
She walks towards her dresser collecting her pajamas and heads to the bathroom. She slightly chuckles and says, "Of course it'd be honored to have such an amazing girlfriend. Oh and I'm getting changed so no peeking." She laughed, "You should get changed too. Once we're in our sleepwear we can cuddle."
I light up at the idea of cuddles and turn every shade of red when the 'no peeking' part sinks in. I wait until she is the the bathroom to change clothes faster than I ever have before. I slip into her bed and under the covers, waiting to wrap her in my embrace. She walks out of the bathroom in her yukata and crawls into her bed with me. Blake takes off her black, silk ribbon. Which leaves her cat ears exposed. I start to stroke them gently, I hear and feel a slight vibration.
"What's that?" I ask thinking its my scroll, but when I check it there aren't any notifications.
"I don't know" she says. She started talking and it stopped.
I continued scratching lightly at the tips of her ears. The vibrating started again with a look of pure bliss on her face. Well, now I know what it is. I look at her holding back a laugh.
"Are you purring, kitten?" I ask with a sly grin.
"Maybe, and don't call me kitten," she says jokingly with a pouty face.
"Aww, come on. You are my kitty aren't you," I tease pecking her nose with a soft kiss.
"Pwease." I plead giving her big puppy eyes.
"Ugh, fine. But only because you're cute." she says kissing me lightly on the lips. "We should probably get some rest"
"But I want to cuddle." I whine giving her a look of childish defiance.
"Tomorrow, I promise. Now, go to bed my beautiful girlfriend." she smiled.
"Fine," I sighed. "Good night kitten."
"Good night sunshine." she said nuzzling her face into the crook of my neck.
Sunshine huh? Ya know what I really like the way that sounds. I promise I'll never let you go Blake-y.
That was my last thought before drifting into a deep peaceful sleep.
