Hello guys, welcome back for a new chapter of The Beauty. Now, before you guys read this; I wanted to explain a few things just so people won't get the wrong idea. Upon reading the previous chapter, I made a mistake (again) that I said Ruby and Weiss are half-sisters. they're not, they're STEP-sisters. I know, I'm an idiot for making that kind of mistake, but again, I just want to make things clear. Now, with that out of the way, enjoy.
"Weiss... wake up."
Slowly waking up, I rubbed my eyes to start the day of the weekend. Only to realized I am not in my bedroom. Looking up, I see a clear blue sky. I quickly sat up from my bed to only see my room was nonexistent. Instead, I was on an open field filled with white roses. I quickly turned to all angles to only see just that, red roses. As the calm breeze touching my face, I somehow felt empty. 'This is some dream, right?' I thought to myself.
Just then, a white petal landed on my bed sheets. I turned to the direction of the petal to find a stranger in a white dress, staring across the white field. She wasn't that far, but her face wasn't visible. I put my bare feet on the soft soil, which felt weird. I started to walk to her through the roses. As each step I take, the white roses turned into dust to form a path for me. As I got close I hesitated for a moment, 'What should I say?'
Suddenly, the stranger turned around to face me. I stumbled back a bit, "Hello." She said.
As she showed her face, my heart sank. upon looking at her face, her face matches Ruby's; albeit, an adult version of Ruby. I opened my mouth, but she placed her finger on my lips, "Not now." She said.
She let go, "Wait, What do you mean wai-"
As I was about to finish my sentence, a bright light was shined in front of me.
As I opened my eyes, I sat up quickly. Feeling the sweat trailing down on my brow, I wiped it off, feeling the wet liquid on my hand. I looked around to see that it is all a dream. I sighed in relief, as I put my hand down on my bed. However, my bed felt different. The texture was puffy and round. I twisted and squeezed a little until I heard a soft moan. I jumped a little and looked down. My face immediately turned red. What's in front of me was Ruby sleeping on my bed, 'Was she sleeping with me the entire night?' I thought to myself. just then, her eyes began to open. My heart began to race. I didn't know why I wasn't moving, nor I remove my hand off of her soft chest. As she yawned, she looked at me. "Good morning Weiss," Ruby said as she rubbed her eyes. "Wait, why is face all-"
She stopped. She looked at my hand and her face turned red. She freaked out as she swiped my hand away. She crawls quickly on the other of the bed. Feeling the uncomfortable warmth on my hands, I had made my first PTSD embarrassment. I breathed slowly and looked at her. I was about to scold her, but I didn't. yes, she came to my room without my permission, sleep on my bed without any consent, and now there she was, curled up into a ball covering her chest on the other side of my bed. However, Seeing her eyes in shame, I spoke, "Sorry."
She perched her head up, "I'm sorry for touching you inappropriately." I said, rubbing my hand.
After a brief of silence, I was prepared to be called a 'pervert,' but then I heard, "No. You shouldn't be."
I looked at her, "What?"
She paused shortly before for continuing, "You shouldn't be sorry." She said, "I should be the one apologizing."
I paused for a moment then spoke, "If you don't mind me asking, but why did you sleep in my room?"
She didn't respond, 'Great job, Weiss.'
I got up from my bed to go use the bathroom, until she spoke, "I had a nightmare."
I turned to look at her. Her face was buried in her arms. I walked towards and knelt down, "Hey."
She lifted her head up with little tears, rolling down her cheeks. "If you have trouble sleeping. you can to my room," I said, wiping her tears away.
"really?" Ruby asked.
"Yes," I said. "But you need to let me know, so we don't have another accident."
"Okay," she said as she blushed.
I simply nodded. As I got up and go to my original destination, Ruby hold my hand. I turned, "What is it-"
She kissed my hand, "Sorry for slapping hand." She said.
As my face became warmer, I simply ran, opened the door, and head to the bathroom. Once I got to the bathroom, I shut the door behind me and sat behind it. As my face began to cool down, I look at the back of my hand where she kissed it and groaned, 'what is wrong with me?' I thought to myself.
I got up and looked at a mirror. What's in front of me is a girl, who is going through a teenage-crisis. I sighed, 'There's no way I could feel this way to a girl that I just met.'
Turning on the water, I splashed water on my face to get rid of this 'feeling' I had.
After I got out of the bathroom, I headed downstairs to the kitchen to get some breakfast. Upon, entering the kitchen I saw Ruby sitting on the counter, eating Pumpkin-Pete's Marshmallow Grunch, "I thought that cereal was shut down, due to health hazards." I said.
"I thought so too," Ruby said. "But Uncle Qrow somehow still has in his house."
As I looked at the box, I can see a young girl with red hair and green eyes, 'I wonder what happened to her?'
Just then, the door rang. I walked to the door and opened it to see Mr. Branwen, carrying Winter on his back, "Morning girl." He said.
"MorNiN," she said.
He chuckled and walked towards the stairs, "What happened?" I asked.
"It's a story that is not appropriate for children," he answered as he passed the entrance of the kitchen. He turned to see Ruby, "Hey pipsqueak." He said, smiling.
Ruby didn't say anything but gave him a little wave. Qrow sighed, as he makes his way upstairs. Once Qrow was out of sight, I looked at Ruby who was looking down at her cereal. I was going to ask if she's okay but stopped, as she went to the back porch.
As I sat on the couch and turned on the TV. However, instead of the VNN channel, I saw this garbage Rom-com called: Cold Heart Hot Love. I quickly turned to the news channel as the show was this close, showing a sex scene. I slumped back and listened to the reports, "Lisa Valender, here. As the attacks from the White Fang began to rise, Citizens are warned to not go outside at night and more security have been added to keep our city-"
I turned off the TV and groaned, 'Don't they realized that the White Fang won't stop?'
I traced my scar with my scar and shivered, 'Is this what I get for being a Schnee?'
Just then, Qrow came downstairs, "Feeling alright?" He asked.
"Yeah," I answered.
He nodded, "Where's Ruby?"
I pointed at her location, as she was sitting on the stairs of the porch. Qrow frowned and scratched the back of his neck, "Hey, Weiss?"
"Yes," I answered.
"Get ready, we're going to the mall."
I nodded, as he went out to start the car. I opened the back door to see Ruby in silence, "Hey Ruby, Qrow is taking us to the mall." I said, "So you wanna come?"
Ruby didn't look back but nodded. I headed upstairs to my room. Once I Got to my room, I put on a white sweater and a pair of jeans. I looked to see Grow and Ruby standing outside, waiting for me. I quickly ran downstairs, through the living room, and opened the door to start my adventure.
As we passed building to building in the town of Vale, I sighed at the place, "What's wrong, not exciting enough?" Qrow asked, as his eyes were glued to the road.
"No, it's the changes."
As we passed each telephone with cameras, Qrow sighed, "Oh," Qrow said. "that's tough."
During the ride, I looked back to see Ruby looking at the buildings and the autumn leaves floating down. I opened my mouth but shut it quickly, 'Why is it so hard to talk to one person?' I thought to myself.
"Alright, kids, we're here."
As Qrow parked his black Honda in front of the mall, I got and was in shocked at the place. The sign reads The Vale Garden Plaza. Between the entrance, has many stores and restaurants such as Knights & Knicks, BBQ Nevermore, and other places. I got out and so does Ruby. As soon she got out, she put on her red hoodie, I saw her wore ripped black jeans and a pair of red sneakers, "You kids ready to head inside the grand palace?" Qrow asked.
Ruby and I nodded, and the three of us head in.
Upon entering the place, we weren't prepared for the 'features' in the mall. As we passed each store entrances, we could see Atlas security robots standing still as statues and cameras on every single wall, "Wow, things have changed." Qrow said as he sat down near the public couch.
"You kids go on and have some fun," He said, "I'm going to hang around the food court."
"Okay," I replied, turning to face Ruby, "Hey Ruby, you want to-"
She was gone.
