A/N: Sorry, please don't kill me. :'(

"Umm, about three months after we last spoke. I wasn't prying or anything, I just collected news about you." Weiss looked down at her feet, a single tear slid down her face, tracing the line of her scar, and dropped to the floor. "I needed to make sure you were all okay."

Ruby looked stunned, she had expected to come back and get yelled at for being a bitch the last time they spoken. She hadn't expected to have to watch as her team mate, and dare she say friend, was crying I front of her. Weiss Schnee, the ice queen. Ruby had no idea what to do, so she simply stepped forward and pulled the crying girl into a hug and held her there as more tears fell, until there were no more tears to fall.

"You look dreadful, what have you been up to?" inquired the ice queen, she had tried to regain her usual shell, but there were cracks in it that would never fully heal. She would never be able to use her infamous protection against emotion again.

"Speak for yourself princess. To be honest, I've been looking for you." Ruby said quickly, Weiss face flashed a look of confusion before returning to her usual emotionless expression.

"What do you mean?" Weiss brain struggled to come up with a reason that Ruby was looking for her. She came up blank.

"Weiss, you never did understand me. Of course I came looking for you, you are my best friend and maybe." Ruby stopped suddenly, she looked down at her feet. "Maybe more?"

Weiss didn't know what to say or do. It wasn't exactly how she had expected this to go. Ruby liked her, as more than a friend. Of course Weiss liked her back, she had for a long time. It wasn't the childlike stupidity that she liked, it was the way Ruby always knew exactly what to do.

"Maybe….." Weiss spoke, with that one word she had given Ruby something the poor girl had lost when they last saw each other. Just after she had been dragged away by her sister, she had tried desperately to fight back but Yang was stronger.

Neither girl said anything. Although they tried to avoid the others gaze their eyes became locked all the same. Then in a blur of rose petals Ruby disappeared off, the door slamming behind her.

Where she had stood a single piece of paper slowly fell to the floor…
