A/N: Sup my brosillises! It's your favourite cookie with a doctorate degree! Here is chapter three of different from before. I'm writing this while sitting beside my co-writer, so we can work on it together. And now, the story…
One by one, the students returned to beacon from dispatching their assigned targets. Dustin and Pyrrah were laughing, Justin was cleaning his weapons while Blake shot the occasional glance at him while hiding her ears with the hood of Justin's hoodie he let her borrow, Ricky and Yang were playfully pushing each other around, Cardin and Jaune came back covered in bruises, Ruby and Weiss were holding hands and Nora was talking Ren's ear off. Liam and Velvet were the last to arrive. Liam looked like he was in a daze and Velvet was blushing a furious red. Glynda spoke up "Now that you're all back, you are dismissed." Velvet hurried of and Liam rejoined his team. Dustin spoke up first "So, the little bunny girl, huh." "Wait WHAT! I…I!" Liam stuttered. "You have lipstick on your neck" Dustin replied bluntly. "Oh" He said touching his neck. "Well, what about you guys. Ricky, yours is obvious with the person you were partnered with being so flirtatious. Dustin can't stop making that Pyrrah girl laugh. And Justin, man. That girl in black wouldn't take her eyes off of you." "R-really" He stuttered. "oooo, someone interested." Said a voice from behind them. The sudden noise made them all jump in surprise. "Oh hey, Yang" Ricky said cheerfully. "Hey! Now back to your friend here and the shocked expression he's givin' me. You want to get close to Blake? Then go talk to her." "I…I" Justin was clearly at a loss for words. "Ugh! Just come with me. You too Ricky!" "I got nothin' better to do" Ricky replied. "Than to be with me. I know." Yang teased.
It wasn't long before they got back to the team RWBY dorm. Luckily when they arrived no one was there. "Ok! Guess the only thing left to do is sit here and wait for… BLAKE!" She yelled as Blake entered the room. "Hello, Yang" She said tiredly, noticing that there were other people in the room, but not so much as to make eye contact with them. She couldn't get one person out of her head. "Uum, so Blake…" Yang began. "I want you to meet some people" Blake looked up only to lock eyes with the one person she was trying to forget. 'Well that doesn't help' Blake thought to herself, only to notice that Yang was talking to her. "I'm sorry, Yang can you repeat?" Yang smirked and said " I was saying… this is Ricky. He's a… friend of mine." Ricky slumped at the word friend, but no one seemed to notice. "And…" Yang continued looking at the two of them. "I guess you already know him" "I met him in the emerald forest" Blake said, blushing slightly. "He saved my life" "Ohhhhh! I see." Yang teased. Blake gave her a look that would bring most men to their knees in fear, but Yang just continued to smirk at her. "I'm sorry about your bow" Justin said sincerely. "It's okay" Blake returned. "I have some spares for situations like this" "Oh! So he knows!" Yang said cheerfully. "Ya, but he doesn't!" She screamed at Yang, pointing at the boy beside her with a confused look on his face. "I don't know what" Ricky asked. Blake sighed and took off her spare bow, revealing her ears to him. "Awww, their cuuu…GAH!" He started only to be elbowed in the gut by Yang. She looked at him with a sly smile while he got air back into his lungs. 'Well now that he's here I might as well talk to him.' Blake thought. "Sooo, your name is Dustin, right?" She asked, knowing full well what his answer was. She know what his name was. "No, that's my brother. I'm Justin." He corrected. The shock of Blake finding him here wore off and was replaced with nervousness. "Well, Justin, I have some homework to get done." She turned around only for him to say "Umm, it's Friday" 'SHIT! So it is' Blake thought. "Ya… but I have a lot of it and I want to have a weekend to myself" She only got one foot out the door before he spoke up again. "Um, aren't you forgetting something." "What?" Blake returned with a confused look on her face. "You said you were going to do homework, right? Well your leaving with nothing" He said while picking up the bag she walked in with and handing it to her. 'Smooth, Belladonna' she thought to herself before awkwardly thanking him, taking the bag and leaving.
"What did I do?" Justin asked, utterly confused. Yang was the first to speak up. "Nothing. You saw the look she was giving y.." She was cut off as he yelled "OH CRAP!" while he ran to the bed where Blake sitting, grabbed something off her bed, turning on his heel and busted ass out the door. "Where are you going!?" Yang yelled at him from down the hall. "She forgot h…" Was all she could here before he was too far away. "So… what now?" Ricky asked, hopefully. "Well, I'm hungry" Yang responded while giving him a smile that could only symbolize the words 'That's too bad' before leaving. He muttered something about teasing before following suit.
Meanwhile…
Justin kept running, searching for the girl who no doubt wanted her headpiece back. When he found her, she was walking with her small bag at the end of the hallway. He slowed his pace down a bit, but that's not to say that he wasn't running. He was going so fast that Blake barely had time to turn around and he didn't notice the cane that stuck out of the hallway to his right, right in front of Blake. It was put there intentionally when the owner heard someone running down the hallway. He tripped and fell unto her with a thud. When they opened their eyes Justin was right on top of her. 'ohcrapohcrapohcrapohcrap! What are you doing! Get off her, you moron! Wait! My body's not moving! And she's not pushing me away!' He thought, panicking internally. "Please remove yourself from Miss Belladonna, Mister Hope-Wyllie" These words from behind him gave him the jump he needed to regain control of his body. With a jolt he stood up with his back straight and arms flat at his sides. He was embarrassed that someone had seen his little incident, but if all people, him. "REALLY?!" Justin screamed in his mind while he stared into the silver-haired face of professor Ozpin. "May you like to tell me why you disobeyed school rules by running in the halls?" He inquired. "Well, sir… you see… I was trying to give Miss Blake here her bow" Justin answered, trying to sound as polite as possible. Blake, still on the ground in a daze, heard this and immediately reached for her head where her bow should be and only felt her cat ears. With a sudden squeak, Blake jumped up and snatched her bow out of his hands and quickly placed it upon her head while looking at the professor in fright. The headmaster only gave her a reassuring smile and said "Do not worry, Miss Belladonna. I have known about you and your past since before you came to this school. I know you have come here as a chance at redemption, so you do not need to hide your ears from me" "I… thank you, sir" She said with a smile. "As for you, Mister Hope-Wyllie. You had an excuse this time, so I won't punish you. But be mindful of your surroundings. It was way too easy to get you off balance. Good day to both" He said while turning on his heel and leaving the two alone. "Thanks again for the bow" She said sincerely. "No, problem… and this was only the first time you thanked me" He said with a small smirk. "Oh! Then in that case I have to make up for the time I meant to say thank you" And with that, she leaned over and gave him a peck on the cheek and walked away. He stood there and smiled, not knowing someone had been watching them. She figure was wearing a white and red mask and a black coat. "I'm gonna make you pay for leaving me Blake, very soon"
A/N: Can you guess who that is? Leave your guesses and the comments. So on a less serious note, hope you all are enjoying your holiday season. I'm going to start other character arcs very soon. Thank you and goodnight.
