Chapter 3

Arriving back in Ruby's apartment Weiss let herself fall on the couch with a deep scowl.

She couldn't believe that Jaune would say things like this. He had no right to, and her feelings are as real as they can be. She swears the next time she sees that blonde idiot she will….

Her train of thoughts was interrupted with a fresh cup of tea placed in front of her and Ruby who sat besides her and pulled her in a side-hug. "You have been so quiet since I picked you up. What's on your mind?"

Leaning into the hug Weiss sighed in contentment already forgetting her anger. Ruby always had this effect on her, calming and making her relax without trouble.

"It's nothing important. Just...I told you about Jaune right?" Ruba gave a hum while she sipped her tea "Isn't that the guy who is hitting on you ever since you started college? And the same who tried to serenade you?" Weiss gave a snort at that. Just the memory at his attempt to sing an invitation to the Black and White ball causes her to shudder.

"The same. He had the nerve to tell me that I was simply idolizing you, and that my feelings for you aren't real at all." Weiss tells her, a frown on her features.

Ruby gave Weiss a soft kiss on the lips "Well I would say we are long enough together to prove that theory of him wrong. And if I remember right, were you the one who asked me out, quite a few times." laughing a bit at the memory of the younger cute Weiss always trying to woo her.

Weiss giggles as she leans closer into Ruby. "Remember when I asked you out at my thirteenth birthday party? My entire ballet class was there mostly because they wanted to meet you."

"Of course I do. I also remember how you tried to get me alone since all your classmates were constantly asking me things or for me to do some acrobatics. It was cute how jealous you got." Weiss started to blush at that, since she still tends to get easily jealous of others trying to steal her Ruby away.

"That's ok, I still remember when someone was turning eighteen and had to spend the entire night dodging Reese because she wanted to celebrate you turning into an adult in a special fashion." Weiss teases her back, knowing it will get a rise out of Ruby.

Ruby raises an eyebrow at that "I am surprised you even know of that. But on the other hand you did spend a lot of time in Haven after school and on the weekends." Mused Ruby "Which now that I think about it was probably not that great since there weren't many kids and some adults kids should stay away from." Ruby didn't mention that she in fact did end up spending the night with Reese. It was no secret between them that she had previous relationships but some things should stay unsaid.

Weiss shrugs as she looks up at Ruby. "I had you, Reese and Sun looking out for me, along with Neo and Roman. Sun was the main one that chased all the creepos and pedos away when he wasn't up on stage." She sighs. "I still miss Neo too. I wish she hadn't left the way she did."

"We all do Snowflake" Ruby gave her a kiss on the head "But she was always someone who prefered leaving without a goodbye, believing our paths are meant to cross again."

"But we can't forget that your mom always watched out for all of us. No one dared risking her wrath" added Weiss to get the mood up again.

Ruby starts laughing. "The Great and Mighty Salem, Queen of the Stage and Dark Goddess of all petty mortals! Sun used to tremble whenever he heard her coming and he was busy playing Uno with you, Reese and Neo!"

Weiss also started to laugh at that. Ruby was relieved Weiss was feeling better than before when she picked her up. Ruby had to make a note for herself to have a "talk" with Jaune the next time she sees the boy.

Meanwhile Weiss had already completely forgotten why she was upset.

Standing up, Ruby began to make her way to the kitchen "So what do you want for dinner Snowflake?"

Weiss hummed "I am in the mood for a light soup with some of your self made bread"

"Don't you have to be back in" Ruby looked at her watch, it was already 7pm "Three hours?"

Surprised that it is already that late, Weiss thought for a moment and decided to just drive home in the morning, not in the mood for any of her friends.

"I think I can live with just waking up a bit earlier to drive home in the morning. Your cooking is worth the trouble."

Weiss smiled when she saw the faint blush on Ruby's cheeks. Weiss was starting to get better in making her blush which was great since she had to give a lot of pay back for all the times Ruby made her embarrassed and blush whenever they were out with her parents and siblings.

The rest of the evening went by in a wink with Weiss practically inhaling the food Ruby made. If any of her friends would see her like that, they would probably think she was an imposter. The Weiss they knew only ate her healthy salads in a prim and proper way.

In private Weiss loved to eat. She ate everything Ruby or her family chef would make for her. Even indulging in the occasional steak.

The next morning Ruby woke her up before she had to leave for her morning training, which started at 6am before she had to train with her costars or whatever is on her schedule for the day. Weiss drove back to College with a smile, but put her neutral face up as soon she exited the car.

It was the beginning of another long week of College before she could drive back to the place she wanted to be, and be with the person she loved most.
