Yanking Yang II
Gods, how was she going to tell dad? What was she going to tell dad? 'Sorry, pops, Ruby got a boyfriend five minutes upon arriving and I let the temper get the best of me and destroyed the auditorium?' Dad was tolerant, gave her and Rubes a lot of freedom, but this was beyond the scope of getting home late from a party or beating up a bad guys' lair. She trashed his alma mater and he probably wouldn't even give her a hesitant high five for beating up the creeper creeping on Ruby because she didn't beat that blonde bastard up.
He dodged all of her moves! Who does that? Jerk!
Worst of all, though, was that her sweet, baby girl of a little sister, pure-and-innocent-cinnamon-roll Ruby Rose fought her badass bombshell of an older sister for… for… for a blonde noodle she just met! What was the old adage? 'Blood is thicker than dust' and all that?
"ARGH!" Yang shouted, spitting out the remains of her toothpaste. She inspected the mirror and caught two girls eyeing her warily. Yang snarled, a fierce glare bearing down on them. They refused to leave. "WHAT?" she challenged, but the force of her voice sent them scurrying out the bathroom.
Yang could hear them whispering as they ran off. Great, she thought, they're gossiping about me already.
She was no stranger to peeps gossiping about her. It came with the territory of being the most bombastic girl in Signal. More than once she had to deal with the monthly rumor where she put out to some guy looking to score dude points with the bros. One match in the ring made sure they recanted whatever they boasted. She flirted around, not slept around.
What sucked though was that the source of the gossiping and her soon-to-be plummeting popularity was because of her temper. Her so-called 'friends' she ditched Ruby for decided she was not cool enough to hang with them anymore after her little spar with her sister. Yang couldn't fix this mess by punching someone out.
Even if she so desperately wanted to punch that noodle right in the snozz.
Yang walked out of the bathroom with her stuff, and made her way to the little area she reserved for herself and Ruby. All the good spots were gone by the time she and Ruby came back from their lecture from Goodwitch, ending with the two of them getting two weeks detention after initiation was over and done with. Jaune, the bastard, somehow, was not punished because 'he didn't start or continue the fight.' Started the fight? Nah, that was putting it lightly. He started a war.
As she dropped down atop her sleeping bag, some black-haired girl in a black bow came running up to her. She was panting.
"Y-Yang, right?" the girl asked. She had this mysterious beauty thing going on. "Ruby's sister?"
Okay, what? She eyed her with an eyebrow raised. Was she about to walk into some mean girl trap or whatever? However, by how red the girl was in the face and the utter desperation in her eyes, this wasn't some alpha bitch tactic.
"Yeah, that's right. What about it?"
The girl smiled, and man was it a cute one. Was she going to be having some competition on campus?
"Okay, good, come with me. Quick, it's about Ruby and t-that boy. They're…"
"Yang!"
Seeing only a glimpse of red petals, she felt her entire body lurch forward as a small girl crashed into her stomach to wrap her in a fierce hug. The result forced her to the ground.
"OhmygoshYangI'msosorryIdidn'tmeantogetusdetentionandyouleftsoquicklybeforeicouldapologizeandexplainaboutwhathappenedandIjustwanttoletyouknowthatI'msupersorrybutIstillreallylikeJaunesoyouhavetoaccepthimokay?"
Warmth spread around her chest as she felt her little sister snuggle against her stomach. Probably would've scored more teasing points if she nuzzled her breasts, but she wasn't about to ruin the moment. Honestly, she wasn't upset with her. Nah, her anger was reserved for that boy.
"Alright, alright, slow down, kiddo. Geez, let me go already." Yang laughed as Ruby let go of her. "I wasn't… upset with you. You just took me by surprise."
"Dad said to be honest upfront right away to avoid misunderstandings. So… that's what I did."
Yang frowned. "Wait, wait, wait. You're not apologizing for pranking me to making me believe vomit boy was your boyfriend and making me flip out?"
Ruby cocked her head in that cutesy way to get out of trouble with dad. Too bad it never worked on her. "Um," she chuckled nervously, "no?"
She felt ready to burst again. No, Yang chastised herself, focus on one thing at a time. "Ruby Rose, what are you thinking? I told you to make friends, yeah, but I didn't say to go run off with the first boy you meet!"
"Yang! Jaune's cool! He's great! You should give him a chance! Besides, I'm a big girl. He's a good guy and, y'know, I wanted to snatch him up before another red-haired girl with a polearm weapon sinks her claws onto him!"
Yang rolled her eyes at the obvious exaggeration. What other red-haired girl could use a scythe like hers? She sighed. "Okay, tell me honestly, Ruby. Did Jaune do anything to you?"
"What? You mean, like, hypnotize me?"
Yang nodded.
"Pft, right. Jaune's cool, but not that cool."
"Ruby! I'm being serious here! Did he or did he not do anything to you?"
Ruby giggled, not taking it serious at all. Gods, why did she get stuck with such a flighty sister? "Well, to be completely honest with you, Yang. You should be more worried about me doing something to him!"
She gasped. "Ruby!"
"I'm kidding, I'm kidding! He's the bees' knees, Yang. Give him a shot."
No… no, she did not just do what she thought she did. Did Ruby really give her the puppy dog eyes? Dammit. No. Gods. Dammit.
"This is stupid. This entire day has been stupid. Fine, whatever, but I'm giving you two a month. Two months tops before you both break up, and I'll be the one jumping up and down and saying, 'I told you so'."
Her sister laughed, and as much Yang didn't appreciate it right now, she did feel a big happy that she made her sister happy. She would keep a close eye on Jaune and if he did anything untoward towards Ruby, she'll be breaking his sword. And no, she didn't mean the one he kept in that sheathe.
"Oh, hi Blake!"
Who was Blake? Yang looked up and found the girl with the blushing face and black bowtie's eyes widening in alarm. She immediately excused herself.
"You know her, Ruby?"
"Nope! But as you and Jaune's mom say, strangers are just friends you've haven't made yet!"
