"W-what?" Was the only thing Blake could manage to say at the moment. Yang's face had become increasingly more red as they stood there. She could not believe that Yang had decided to do that. It was unethical, it was rude, it was...it was. Blake shook her head as she tried to form a sentence. "Yang of all times to do this, of all the opportunities you had, You choose now to say that? At one point in the past I would have loved to hear those words, but I am with Sun and you have Weiss." Blake stopped for a second. "Weiss, does she know?" Blake asked glaring towards Yang. Yang slowly reached up to rub the back of her head. "Heh heh he-ahem, uh, no she doesn't" Blake could not believe what she was hearing Yang had messed up before in the past but this was the worst she had ever done. "Are you fucking kidding me!?" Yang visibly flinched at the words she had never heard Blake so enraged before. "Yang I cannot fathom why you though this to be a good idea." Her friend said backing up. "I-I need to go goodbye Yang."
Yang watched as her best friend started walking away."Blake wait." The blonde started after her friend only to be stopped dead in her tracks. "No Yang! I...I can't look at you right now." Yang clenched her jaw as she felt her emotions starting to get the better of her. "Are we still friends?" She asked, The one question she needed an answer for. Blake visibly dropped in posture as she continued away from Yang. "I don't know Yang...you made a huge mistake and the worst part is no matter what you do people are going to be hurt. You already hurt one person." With that Yang watched through foggy eyes as her once best friend walked away. She felt something warm running down her face as she realized the dam had broken and the tears had started falling. Pulling out her phone she fumbled her way through her contacts until she reached the one she needed most. "Hello? Yang?" came her moms voice over the phone.
Yang was a blubbering mess as she tried to speak to her mother. "Mom, I...Blake...please come get me?" between the sobs she heard her mother speak but was unable to comprehend it. Hearing the click on the other end of the line as her mother hung up she placed her phone back in her pocket. She turned towards the pier and peered out over the ocean. The waves crashed below her in the dark of the night as she stared aimlessly.
"Yang?" came a voice from behind her, turning she saw that her mother had arrived. "Sweetie are you ok?" Summer asked quickly walking over to her daughter pulling her into an embrace. Shaking her head Yang just buried her face into her mothers shoulder and let her tears fall. The soothing pats on her back while her mom comforted her helped some, but the pain of seeing Blake so upset and distraught was a wound that would not heal on its own. Following her mother to the car she got in as her mother made her way around. Once in the car Summer looked to her to see if she would be willing to talk. Yang kept her eyes forward and stayed silent the rest of the ride back to the house.
Once home Yang made for an immediate dash to her room. Inside she flopped down on the bed and laid there with no more will to move. After a while she heard soft knocking coming from her door. "Yang?" Came a soft voice as the door creaked open. "Can I come in?" Sitting up on her bed Yang adjusted her hair and clothes. "Ruby...I really just want to be left alone right now." hearing silence for a moment she was sure her sister was about to leave. "Maybe I can help?"
Help that was the last word she wanted to hear as her face twisted with anger and disgust. Help is what landed her in this situation no thanks to Pyrrha and her stupid idea. "Help? You want to help? Sure why the hell not, I know you can make a magical fucking time machine to stop me from making the worst mistake ever." By now Yang was standing up and pacing in her room as her sister watched on. "Oh oh how about you become one of the magical girls you always watch on tv and make Blake my friend again." Ruby had started tearing up as Yang finally stopped for a moment to catch her breath.
"I only wanted to help." came the choked reply of her sister. Yang finally having enough for the night snapped. "If you want to help do what I said in the first place and leave me the hell alone!" that was the tipping point as she heard her door close. Soon after she heard the quick footsteps leading to her sisters room followed by the sound of a quickly closed door. Sighing to herself she knew what was to come at any moment.
"YANG XIAO LONG!" Came her mothers shout that echoed through the house. Sitting on her bed once more she waited for her mother to come in. Barging through the door she witnessed a fuming mad Summer Rose. "Why is Ruby crying in her room?! She only wanted to help you but right now you are being a stuck up little asshole!" Yang having already been yelled at once this night sat through unfazed by the onslaught.
Pinching the bridge of her nose Summer finally gave up. "You better apologize the first chance you get or so help me god." with that she walked out of the room. Silence once again filled the void in the space around her. Quietly cursing to herself she got up and walked out into the hallway where she tip toed her way to Ruby's room. Once outside she put her ear to the door and listened. Soon enough she heard the soft whimpers of her sister through the door. Standing up she lightly knocked hoping to get her sisters attention. "Ruby?...I'm sorry can I please talk to you?" Yang half whispered as to not alert anyone else. Hearing shuffling Ruby opened the door ever so slightly to peek out. Her silver eyes now a shade of crimson from the tears that were shed.
"Why do you want to talk now?" Was Ruby's first question Yang faced from her sister. "Y-you yelled at me to go away so I did." She hiccuped squeezing on the door frame. Yang hesitated for a moment before looking back at her sister."I know...I know there is no excuse for me yelling at you. I am just in a bad place right now, and I am not thinking straight." Yang turned at leaned against the wall only to slide down to sit.
Ruby looked up and down the hallway before she tugged on her sisters shirt as she looked over to Ruby who motioned for her to enter her room. Walking in Yang sat on the bed as Ruby took a seat next to her. Still sniffling she tried once again to get her big sister to talk."Yang what's wrong?" Leaning back onto the bed Yang sprawled out sighing. "It's hard to explain, but tonight I made the worst mistake of my life. I lost a friend and probably more once others find out." curling up the blonde fought back tears as she remembered how furious Blake was.
Ruby scooted over to Yang and carefully wrapped her arms around her waist and pulled her into a hug. "I don't know what to do Ruby." she spoke choking back as she started to let her emotions out. "I don't want to lose anyone."
Blake barged through the front door of her house as soon as she got home. Her face still heated and red with anger frustration and many more emotions. Her mother stood just inside the door as Blake rushed past heading to her room. Concerned over her daughter grew, but knowing from past experience she decided Blake will tell her in time what is wrong.
Once in her room Blake broke down collapsing on the floor she could no longer hold back her tears. Why did this have to happen she knew Yang made mistakes but this was on a new level even for her. She went behind Weiss and hers backs and for what? An answer she should have seen coming from miles away. The worst part now is explaining what happened to Sun if she even decided to tell him.
Blake looked at her phone and scrolled through her contacts before she found who she was looking for. Hovering her finger over the delete button she hesitated before pressing down deleting Yang from her phone. Scrolling around a bit more she found Weiss' number and contemplated messaging her. Shaking her head she decided this was something Weiss needed to find out from the source.
A knock on her door drew her attention away from her phone."Yes?" she asked as she wiped away any residue of tears from her face. "Can I come in?" came her mothers voice soothing her as she spoke. Getting up and opening the door for her mother she was immediately pulled into an embrace. "Honey I want you to know that I am here for you no matter what." squeezing a little bit tighter Blake just nodded into her mothers shoulder.
"Mom what do you do when your friend does something that could wind up hurting others emotionally?" Blake asked as she lifted her head. Kali taken aback by the sudden question scrambled for an answer.
"Well honey I believe it depends on the ones hurt how they go about it. If the one who caused the pain is truly sorry it may be worth a second chance for them to right their wrong." Kali said whispering into her daughters ear.
Blake nodded slowly as she stepped back from her mother and straightened her clothes. "Thanks mom I really appreciate it." Kali smiled and soon left her alone with her thoughts once again. She was sure Yang was just as emotional and hurt right now but she needs to learn that her actions have consequences. At some point she may be able to forgive her but right now there is no longer any trust between them. As Blake got ready for bed she only hoped that this would not hurt Weiss too badly she is in even a worse position than Blake.
"What have you done Yang?" Blake whispered sadly to herself as she turned off the light.
