A Different Kind of Trouble Pt.4

A/N: Hey guys! This is Chapter 4 of my RWBY fic, with the 'furball' Jet :3 This is not a description though; this one is more of a warning... from this chapter in (or perhaps the next), I will get into some touchy subjects, some you guys may not like, and you may react badly to. I don't want you guys to feel this way, and if that DOES happen, I'm truly sorry, I only use this to both get crap off my own chest, and to add some development to the story and the characters... sooo yeah, be warned! And again, I know this took way too long to come out :(

As the sun rose over Beacon academy, only one student could be seen in the recreational gardens along the outskirts of the grounds; Velvet Scarlatina. She usually got up a good hour earlier than the others, so that she could tend her vast array of vegetables and flowers, before the huge crowd formed in Beacon's halls. She softly hummed to herself, as she tended to her beloved carrot patch, before her Scroll began to buzz in her pocket. Confused at why someone had messaged her, and who that someone was, she rushed to answer, only to stand and stare at what she had seen...

Miss Scarlatina, I suggest you make your way to the tower, along with anyone you consider to be a friend. Professor Ozpin wishes to talk to you on a personal matter, and feels like you should come as soon as possible with support, if required. - Glynda Goodwitch

'Wait, what? Why would Ozpin want to see me?' She whispered nervously to herself, 'Sure, I'm a little behind on work,. And then there's the whole Cardin deal, but that doesn't-'

'Hey Velvet...'

She turned around to see who the voice belonged to, only to see Jet; topless and wandering between the patches surrounding her. This caused Velvet to blush and look shyly away from the boy.

'Ummm Jet...' Velvet began.

'Yes, I'm a Faunus, no I'm not covering the ears up, purely because I don't have to yet.'

Velvet looked at Jet's wild hair and took a step back; just as he had said, poking out was two animal ears (of what species, she could not tell). The fur was the same shade of ginger as his hair, with silky white covering the insides. She had never noticed until now, and she thought they were kind of cute, but she shook her head and got back onto topic.

'A-Actually Jet, it's the topless thing...'

'Oh! Yeah, sorry about that... I'll go in and grab a shirt now...'

As Jet turned around, it suddenly struck him. He, the shy boy, was TOPLESS, in front of someone who wasn't exactly confident herself. Realising this, Jet began to blush, and slowly turned back around, using a nearby gardening robe to cover himself as he did so...

'Uhhh I wanna say sorry for this.. I didn't realise, I kinda rushed out when Neo was in my bed...'

'I-It's fine... Umm Jet, ya think you could help me out?' Velvet nervously asked.

'With what?'

'Well... I got this message on my Scroll... F-From Professor Ozpin, and he wants me to go to his tower, but it said I should bring friends, and im really worried...'

'Would ya like me to go with ya? I know your team shouldn't be back for a few hours yet, and I don't mind being a bit late to breakfast.'

'Jet, I'd really appreciate it...' Velvet looks towards the floor, and blushes slightly.

'Hey, Its not a problem! Just let me... ya know, grab a shirt...'

'Sure! I'll meet you in, say, 10 minutes by my dorm?'

'Sounds like a plan... See ya, Velvet!' Jet turned and began to wander towards the dormitories.

While watching him, Velvet couldn't help but sigh, stroke her bunny ears, and giggle.

'Such a weird guy...' She quietly said to herself. A few moments later, she dusts herself off, removes the gardening robes and makes her way for her dorm.

As Jet made his way towards his dorm, he couldn't help but think back to how Velvet reacted to him...

'She wasn't at all off put by my ears! Then again, that would make sense, considering she's a Faunus herself..' These thoughts spread through his head like wildfire, always about Velvet, whether it was her blushing, or her problem... why ask him to help?

'JET!'

He swung around to notice Yang and Weiss running towards him.

'Hey... what's up?' Yang asked confidently, 'We saw ya running and thought something was wrong...'

Jet glanced towards Weiss, whose facial expression didn't show the same concern. Despite this, he smiled anyways, and replied.

'Nothings wrong, I just have to pick some stuff up and help Velvet before class today...'

Jet went to turn around and walk away, before Weiss finally spoke...

'Would some of that stuff be a t-shirt? Not that I'm complaining...'

DAMN! Jet held the sides of his head casually to cover his ears, and laughed...

'Y-Yeah Weiss... I was in a rush and forgot to grab one...'

Weiss sighed glumly as usual, while Yang merely took a step back and admired the view...

First, her eyes peered towards his chest, muscles beginning to bulge and reveal themselves... Yang slowly began to explore lower towards his abs, a 6-pack barely revealing itself, but definitely there. She ponders exploring further, but a small cough brought her eyes back towards Jet's, and she resisted the urge to lick her lips in anticipation.

'You've not too bad a body there, pup... Maybe if you're not busy later...' She stopped midsentence and winked towards him, causing him to grow more nervous..

'Uhh, I'm not sure if I have things planned, s- so maybe another time Yang...'

'Awwww, I'm not sure I can wait that-'

Yang, calm down...' Weiss gave a piercing glare with her ice-cold eyes, enough to put off anyone's confidence...

'Damn, ok! I was just joking around...' Yang whimpers, hiding her slight blush from the others.

'Better have been... Anyways, we better get going, Ruby's back and we promised we'd meet her, remember?'

'Oh right! Sorry, we'll catch ya later Jet...'

The pair rushed past, with Yang stopping for a moment to look back at the Faunus, and smile slightly.

Jet just sighs slowly, and continues his way to his dorm...

'Well, that was... interesting, to say the least... I'm not sure how this morning could get much weirder...' He finally makes it towards the dorm, and slowly opens it, and peers through... Neo's curious eyes met his own through the small gap between.

'Oh, you're up! I'm kinda shocked if i'm honest...' Jet gasped..

Not as much as I was when I woke up, but oh well... He added under his breath...

'Ummm,m is it ok if I come in? Presuming you're dressed, that is...' Jet asked.

Neo merely poked her tongue out cheekily, and opened the door to reveal herself in a set of pyjamas, a light pink, with little ice-cream cartoons to decorate it.

'Phew, for a second, I thought you weren't then!' Jet laughed quietly to himself, while Neo thought to herself...

I'm not sure you would've minded either way...

Her thoughts are interrupted when Jet opens the wardrobe adjacent to his bed, and asks 'Can you pass me a shirt? None of mine are in here, for some reason...'

Jet continues to search his side of the room, when a piece of fabric hits his shoulders. He grabs it, and peers towards it, before jumping a little and throwing the clothing behind him.

'Neo, I-I meant one of mine, not the one you were wearing!'

His obvious freakout was met by laughter, nothing but laughter... Jet was afraid to turn back around and witness Neo in... well, less clothing than usual.

'Neo, pl-please, just pass my checkered shirt... I know you have it somewhere...'

Grudgingly, Neo put on her top, wandered towards her own wardrobe, tip-toed to reach the top drawer, and pulled out his shirt, struggling to lift it... She jumps over and begins to put it on him, before he shivers from her touch.

'Uhh, Thanks... I think I can put it on though...' Jet quietly moaned. 'Now I really must go, I promised to meet a friend. Maybe we can meet for lunch?'

Neo cared not for lunch, she wanted one thing and one thing only; him. She seductively walked towards him, and placed her hand on his still-bare chest.

'Neo, c'mon... Don't mess with me!' Jet poked his tongue out quickly, before dashing towards the door.

'See ya later!'

Neo sat on her bed disappointed at her failed attempt to gain his attention, while the door slammed behind her.

'Maybe that was to open... But still, how many times must I try...' She pondered to herself, sighing loudly as she did so. 'I bet that Neko doesn't have this sort of trouble.' She giggled at this, and lay flat on her back, deep in thought.

'Someday... You'll realise I like you... Someday...'

Poor Neo... Umm, Hey guys! I know this is a lot shorter than my chapters usually are, but this next one? I see it being preeeetty big, so I thought this was a nice cut-off point before things got frantic... I hope ya enjoy this fic, and look forward to the next ^_^ see ya soon!
