What a Rose Tastes Like Ch. 9
EN: As the Editor I would like remind the reader that this is a work of Fan Fiction
Through the halls of Beacon, the clashing of metal,gunfire and the activation of dust could be heard. In the arena, a practice match could be heard. This practice match was between Ruby and Neo. The reason they were fighting two days before Neo's fight with Yang, was to get accustomed with her new weapon, specially made for her by Ruby Rose. The fight between Neo and Ruby was even, due to them both focusing on similar fighting styles using agility and speed to out maneuver and keep their opponent off balance. The fight continued for a few more hours. Neo noticeably getting better with her weapon with each confrontation. When they finished they, went over to the changing rooms and showers.
After the work out they headed to the showers to clean themselves, after making sure no one was around and that no one was going to come in for a while, Ruby quietly arrived behind Neo, Ruby started to massage Neo's shoulders that were tight after their sparring match, following this Ruby made intricate patterns over her back, arms, and any other places Ruby enjoyed to explore, causing Neo to have a look of pure bliss and desire.
Stopping Ruby whispered into Neo's ear, "We'll have more time later."
Pulling away from their intimate moment, they finished, both feeling unfulfilled.
Leaving the changing room they headed to the cafeteria where they met with Teams RWBY, and JNPR, Ruby Sat next to Weiss one her left and Neo on her right, following Weiss was Blake, then Yang. Everything seemed good on the surface, but past all the smiles was a deep and brooding war. Yang was sending, Neo glances that would stop some Grimm in their tracks. This was due to both Yang's own competitive nature as well as, not wanting Ruby to become hurt by whoever she was in love with, either because the lover was weak and could not protect Ruby or that the lover was not really in love with Ruby.
After Yang's glaring match with Neo, they all headed back to team RWBY's dorm for a few hours, then heading up to Ozpin's office to fill out some paper work that was need to have Neo accepted into Beacon should she win her duel with Yang. After ward they headed down to the dorm room again but due to the uncomfortable atmosphere in the room Ruby quickly said her farewells till tomorrow and simply strolled with Neo around the halls of Beacon taking in the sights and surroundings. Walking through the halls left both Ruby and Neo daydreaming hand in hand of all the things that could happen the moments they would spend together. Finally snapping out of their minds, realizing they both wondered to the gardened area of Beacon.
While wandering through the garden, they came across a small clearing with a wooden bench and decided to sit at simply enjoying the touch of each other and the sounds of birds going about their day. Sitting down Ruby was getting tired, before Neo realized what had happened Ruby was fast asleep next to her with Ruby's head sitting on Neo's shoulder, seeing this Neo gently brushed a few strands of hair out of Ruby's face where a smile crept to with Neo's contact, smiling back Neo decided to swiftly follow Ruby to dreamland.
Waking up where they both were Ruby was greeted to a sight that annoyed her as well as embarrassed her. This sight was to seeing her older sister Yang with a smirk and a slight annoyance plastered to her face with a scroll recording her and Neo. After some colorful words were exchanged between the two sisters, as well as Ruby coaxing Neo into staying with them and Ruby's team for the night, They headed to the dorm.
In the dorm Weiss was studying for a test,Blake was reading one of her many books. Entering Yang made her way to her bed and started listening to some music on her scroll. As Yang already know what was going on Ruby had explained that Neo would be staying for the next two nights. After they agreed , Ruby was dragging Neo around to get her acquainted to the room. Ruby showed Neo the television they acquired and Ruby showed Neo a secret stash of cookies that Ruby like to snack on from time to time. After showing Neo the room it was getting late. All of team Ruby was getting ready for bed doing their nightly rituals. Neo having left any and all sleepwear was annoyed until Ruby offered to share some of her own with Neo.
Neo headed into the bathroom to get ready for sleep using Ruby's things. Exiting Neo had changed into a pair of black lounge pants with a red streak down the sides of the legs. And a loose fitting, white, long-sleeve, button up shirt that Ruby suspiciously had in her clothes. As well as coaxed Neo to wear it
Ruby before going to sleep shouted "Goodnight every one", then wrapping her arms around Neo.
All in their beds, with Neo in Ruby's bed and arms, they all went to sleep. Waking up team RWBY plus Neo got themselves ready for the day simply to attend a few class while Neo took a few tests to find where she was at academically. Afterward Neo took a stroll through the halls of beacon where a few students could be seen simply talking or standing around. Neo after looking at the time was now headed to the cafeteria, where Ruby was now likely to be found with her classes for the day done. After getting a seat next to Ruby, Ruby started to tell Neo about the day's events. When Ruby was finished it was time to head back to the dorm. After a while Team RWBY and Neo headed to sleep a little earlier than before, everyone knowing that fight between Neo and Yang.
AN: ah one or two more chapters and this is finished. It has been a wonderful ride with everyone so I'm a little sad to end it but all things need to end. I know some will not be satisfied with the ending and may seem I'm taking a cheap way out but honestly its the best I can think of. So goodnight to all.
EN: Sadly I can give no spoilers because he hasn't told me anything about his plans.
