Chapter 4
Weiss looked up at the sound of a small knock at the door, followed by it opening, and Pyrrha entering the room.
"Pyrrha," Weiss said, her eyes stinging from crying earlier.
She stood up and hugged the warrior, before sitting back down next to Ruby's bed.
"How is she?" Pyrrha asked softly, quietly pulling up a chair and sitting next to Weiss.
"The doctors all say her wounds are healing normally. It's just a matter of if she wakes up or not," Weiss replied, lowering her head at the last sentence, tears once again forming in her eyes.
Weiss looked up as she felt a warm hand on her shoulder. Her ice blue eyes, meeting Pyrrha's green eyes.
"Hey, you know better than anyone that Ruby doesn't give up easily," Pyrrha said reassuringly, "She'll pull through."
"But what if she doesn't?" Weiss asked, tears streaming down her cheeks. "I can't lose her. She means too much to me."
Weiss felt a warm embrace, as Pyrrha pulled her into a tight hug. She buried her face into Pyrrha's shoulder crying softly.
"She will. I know she will," Pyrrha said softly, holding the crying Heiress close. She released her tight hold as she felt Weiss nod slightly.
"You must really care about her," Pyrrha said, "You're not the kind of person who breaks down easily. I understand that she's your partner, I would be devastated if Jaune were injured like this. However, it feels like there's something else. Something more personal."
"She's changed my life," Weiss replied, wiping her tears, "I don't even want to imagine living without her. She's made me a better person. A happier person. I might even go as far as to say that I.. I love her."
"I love you too, Weiss."
I hoped you enjoyed yet another short chapter. Again, feedback is always appreciated. Thanks for reading! :)
