Hello everyone! Now I know that I said in the announcement the other day that I would've posted this chapter sooner but I really had trouble trying to decide if I wanted to do this chapter or do Weiss's father's visit and I decided to do the former instead as it would make the visit even more interesting. It is a little short but I will make it up in the next chapter.

I hope you enjoy it and please leave a review if you can! Also, this story almost has 100 favs and 200 followers making it my most like story so far. That is awesome considering I was hesitant to write it in the first place but I am now glad that I did. Thank you all!

Ruby had a plan. It was the final weekend before Weiss's father was due to arrive with her "future finance" and Ruby could tell that the stress was getting to her girlfriend. She was concentrating less and less on her school work and seemed to be spending a lot less time with Ruby or anybody else for that matter. When Ruby asked her if anything was wrong or if that if there was anything she could do to help, Weiss would only reply that everything was fine.

Ruby knew that it was not. She knew Weiss more so than she knew herself, Yang, or even her beloved Crescent Rose. Whenever Weiss Schnee was getting in trouble in class for not paying attention than things were not okay. Eventually, Ruby brought her problem to the only person that she knew would be able to help. Yang.

It was earlier during the week and Weiss was off in the training room as she seemed to do lately whenever she had any free time while Blake was off in the library. Ruby took the opportunity of some alone time with her sister for some well needed advice.

"Well, have you tried talking to her about it?" Yang asked as she lazily hanged of the edge of her bunk.

Ruby herself was sitting on her and Weiss's bed. "Yes. Several times but she keeps telling me that she is fine and that I don't need to worry but Yang, I know that something is wrong. I know that it has to do with her father arriving soon and the whole baby thing isn't making it any easier on her. She just hasn't been acting like herself lately." Ruby mumbled sadly.

"True. She has been acting a little less Ice Queenly lately and I have noticed that she has ignored my puns more so than usual." Yang hanged silently on her bunk, taping her chin as she thought. "Well, she has been feeling upset about her dad, yes?"

"Yes."

"And having to worry about taking care of you and the baby is just adding on extra pressure as well. Right?"

Ruby nodded in confirmation.

"Well than it is simple. You two need to take a vacation."

"A vacation? Yang, it is in the middle of the first semester and I doubt that we could really go anywhere or that Weiss would even agree to it in the first place."

"Well you don't have to go anywhere fancy or anything. Just take a few days off and head off to I don't know, just find a hotel and just spend a few days together just the two of you." Yang then hopped off her bunk and made her way to take a seat beside Ruby. "You two haven't really spent a lot of time together recently except for a few moments here and there when Blake and I are gone."

"I know Yang and I am trying but Weiss just doesn't seem to want to spend time with me all that much." Ruby cried out as tears fell down her cheeks. Yang reached over and wiped them away before pulling Ruby in side hug.

"You just need to show her that you are there for her Ruby. She is going through a lot and the fact that there is a chance to lose you is scaring her and just that idea that her own family is the one that is doing so just makes it worse. You just need to show her that she isn't alone in this."

The sisters sat silently for almost half an hour before realization struck Ruby. "I got it!" she jumped to her feet with a grin on her face.

"Really? You got a plan there baby sister?" Yang smirked.

"Sure do." Ruby grinned. They then spent the rest of the day planning her and Weiss's little getaway with Yang's help.

Waking up, Ruby looked over at the clock beside the bed and saw that it was time to put her plan into action. Slowly getting out of bed and prying herself for her girlfriend's grasp, she crept over to her and Weiss's closet and pulled out two duffel bags' full of clothes plus a set of clean clothes for Weiss before changing into a pair of light blue jeans and a white t-shirt with a red and black, long-sleeve flannel shirt over top.

She made her way to her girlfriend's side, she gently placed a hand on her shoulder and shook her awake. "Weiss. Oh, Weiss~ It's time to get up~" she sang.

Groaning, Weiss turned over on her side and faced Ruby as she wiped the sleepiness from her eyes. Yawing she spoke, "R-Ruby? What are you doing? It's 6 in the morning. We have classes in a few hours."

"Nope. You and I got the next few days off and we are going to be taking a little trip." Ruby answered with a smile.

"What?" Weiss asked with a confused look.

"A trip princess. Now get up. I got your clothes out for you and we need to hurry if we are going to make it to the airship on time."

"But Ruby…" Weiss was silenced as Ruby had placed a finger on the other girl's soft lips.

"Nuh uh uhhh. All questions will be answered later but for now you need to get your cute little butt in to the bathroom and get ready."

Reluctantly, Weiss finally got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom to change but not before receiving a light pat on her rear from Ruby who responded to the heiress's glare with a goofy smile. Once Weiss had finished getting ready, Ruby grabbed their bags and they made their way outside towards one of the docks where an airship was standing by and waiting for them

"Okay Ruby, what is going on? How did you get permission to get an airship and allow us to miss classes?" Weiss asked with a stern glare. Ruby was unfazed and simply smiled at her lover.

"It's a surprise~" She sang as her and Weiss made their way inside the airship and took their seats.

It was a quit ride with only a few instances of Weiss once again asking Ruby where they were going but the energetic red-head only answered the same way each time. Eventually, the pilot announced over the intercom that they had arrived at their destination and asked them to prepare for landing.

"Come on Weiss. Let's go!" Ruby happily yelled. She grabbed Weiss by the hand and pulled the heiress off the airship with their bags, ignoring her girlfriend's call to slow down.

They stopped outside the docks and Ruby scanned the area, looking for a familiar image. "What are you looking for?" Weiss asked.

Before Ruby could answer the sound of a horn honking gained her attention. Turing to the source she saw whom she was looking for. "Daddy!" she yelled as she used her sembelance to race over to her father and embrace him in a loving hug which he happily returned.

"Hey sweetheart! It's so good to see you." He said as he hugged his daughter. Weiss made her way to their side and he then let go of his daughter and pulled the heiress into a surprised hug. "Good to see you to Weiss."

"You too Mr. Xiao Long." Weiss hesitantly hugged the taller man back.

"Please Weiss. It's Tai." The man chuckled.

Breaking the embrace, Weiss turned to Ruby. "Visiting your father? That was the surprise?"

"Yes and no. That is part one of the surprise. The next one won't be till later. I just thought that with all the stress and everything that you might want to have some fun and relax for a while. Figured that we could visit my dad and we could do somethings here in Patch." Ruby smiled as she walked to Weiss's side and wrapped her in a side-hug.

"Fine. I guess it won't be so bad. Just as long as when we get back we put in some extra studying to make up for what we have missed." Weiss groaned.

"Deal." Ruby agreed with a giggle. Her father then grabbed the girl's bags and threw them into the back of his truck before opening the door and allowing the girls to take a seat in the back. Ruby saw the hint of surprise when instead of hoping in the front seat, Ruby had joined Weiss in the back.

The group then made their way out towards the outskirts of town and eventually arrived at a small two story house. Ruby was glad to see her home even though it had only been a few months since she was last here. She had to admit that she had felt a small tinge of homesickness during her first week back but that only lasted for a bit.

Exiting the truck once they arrived, Ruby's father grabbed their bags and headed inside with the girls in tow. "I will set your guy's stuff up in your room if that's okay Ruby?" he asked as he headed upstairs receiving an okay from Ruby.

"Are you sure that us staying in the same room is a good idea?" Weiss asked hesitantly.

"It will be fine Weiss. We stay in the same room at Beacon so I'm sure that he won't suspect anything." Ruby assured her partner.

"Okay but we should try and keep the touching to a minimum."

Ruby pouted at the idea of her not being able to properly show her love for Weiss. "Can we at least kiss when we are alone." Ruby put her puppy eyes on full effect.

Groaning, Weiss conceded. "Fine."

"You guys hungry?" Tai asked as he walked back down the stairs. Both girls nodded considering that they left early and hadn't had a chance to eat breakfast. "Great. I will whip us up something quick. You two go ahead and make yourselves comfortable."

"Hey dad! Where is Zwei?" Ruby noticed how Weiss perked up at the mention of her favorite dog.

"He is out with your uncle doing some clean up out in Mistral. Some Grimm were able to overrun a town there and so he was dispatched along with a few others to clear it out." Her father yelled form the kitchen.

"Awwww." Weiss moaned. Ruby walked over to her and gave her a quick peck on the lips to help brighten her mood. Her father wasn't in the room at the moment so she took a chance and was rewarded with a small smile from her girlfriend.

"Want to watch some TV?" Ruby suggested.

"Sure, but none of that anime that you and Blake watch." Weiss said as the whiterose pair dropped down on the couch with Weiss snuggling up to her.

"Awwww Weiss." Ruby pouted but her girlfriend's glare was too much. "Ugh, fine." Ruby grabbed the remote and did some channel surfing before finding a show that they both agreed on. It wasn't ten minutes later that her father called saying that the food was ready.

One thing that Ruby loved about being home was her father's cooking. Raising two girls by himself got him to try cooking and after several dozen failed attempts he seemed to have perfected it. Once they had finished, Tai had said that he needed to head into town to pick up some more groceries for them as well as other supplies.

"So, what do we do now?" Weiss asked as they finished doing the dishes and cleaning up.

"Well, we could go into town and do some exploring, or we could go up to my room and watch a new movie I picked up just for the occasion." Ruby suggested.

"A movie sounds nice. I'm still a little tired from getting up early this morning and the flight here didn't help."

"Yeah, sorry about that. I would've given you a heads up on what we were doing but I wanted it to be a surprise." Ruby felt a little guilty keeping the vacation a secret from her girlfriend.

"It's fine Ruby. It was very nice and I admit that a vacation does sound very nice right now." Weiss said as she wrapped her arms are Ruby's neck before pulling her down into a deep kiss.

"So, about that movie?" Weiss asked as the kiss broke.

"Right!" Ruby grabbed the other girls hand and pulled her upstairs towards her room. Once entering she made her way towards their bags and went searching as Weiss decided to take a seat on the bed. Finding the movie Ruby went to her TV that sat on its own entertainment center just across from her bed. Her room was something that you would expect from a 16-year-old weapon nut. The walls were covered with unique designs for scythes as well as other weapons. Scattered around the room were weapon parts and various pieces of clothing. Ruby felt a little embarrassed about the mess and wished that she had asked her dad to clean it up for her before they arrived.

"What's the movie?"

"It is an action/comedy called Rundown. It is very good and was one of my favorites growing up." Ruby said as she crawled onto the bed and wrapped her arms around her girlfriend, pulling her close as they leaned against the wall next to her bed.

"Oh, by the way, how did you get us out of classes?" the snow white haired girl asked a few minutes into the movie.

"Oh well I just talked to Ozpin about all the stress that you have been dealing with as of late because of the me, the baby, and your father. I told him my plan of us taking a small vacation and he agreed. He said that the last thing he would want to do is allow one of his best students fail because of stress."

"That was very nice of him. I got to say, he really is living up to his promise to support us in any way he can."

"That he is. Just goes to show you how many people really care you know?"

"Yes. It does." Weiss said with a warm smile. Ruby felt her heart beat increase with every second. It wasn't that often that Weiss would smile but she had been doing it much more often now that they were dating and each time Ruby saw it, it just reminded her how much the heiress had changed since they first met. Ruby leaned down and pressed her lips to her lovers. They kissed passionately for a few moments before she decided to press it further. Running her tongue along the other girl's lips, begging for entrance which was gladly accepted. She felt her lips vibrate as a moan escaped her lovers mouth.

Ruby felt herself get pulled forwards and she soon found herself laying on top of Weiss yet the kiss was not broken. The kiss grew to more heated, more loving, more passionate as it lasted longer and longer. Bringing her hands up, she ran them along the smooth pale thighs of her girlfriend, earning a loud moan for her actions. Breaking the kiss, she looked down at her, asking for permission and she found it as she was quickly brought back down to resume. She soon found her jacket being pulled off and her shirt being tugged upwards.

Ruby lifted herself up and was going to pull off her shirt when she heard the front door open and shut downstairs, causing her to jolt back to her senses and remember that they were at her home in Patch and that her father could catch them at any moment. Weiss seemed to of remembered it as well as she pushed herself up and rested up against the wall.

"Ruby! Have you seen my wallet?!" her father shouted from downstairs.

"You put it on the dash in the truck!" she replied.

"Oh. Thank you! Be back soon!" With that the door opened and shut again, leaving the girls alone.

"That was close." Weiss breathed out.

"Yeah. Don't think I want my dad to find out about us like that. Would make the following conversation much more awkward." Ruby said with a chuckle earning an eye roll and smile from Weiss.

"True. How about we just finish the movie and keep the touching to a minimum for now."

"Yeah, that is probably for the best." Ruby said as she scooted closer, wrapping her arms around Weiss and pulling her down so that they were laying down in a spooning position, facing the TV. "Not my fault though that you are so beautiful." She mumbled into the other girls neck before placing several kisses along the smooth surface.

"Tease." Weiss laughed as she moved wiggled closer to Ruby. The pair laid there throughout the movie. Ruby had noticed that Weiss had fallen asleep at some point as her breathing had slowed and she grew more relaxed. Smiling, she nestled closer to her girlfriend and she too soon felt herself grow tired and enter the land of dreams.

She was eventually woken up by the smell of something cooking and, thanks to her pregnancy, she was immediately starving and wanting something smothered in chocolate and possibly even some gravy. Damn was she hungry.

Feeling something move and press down on her chest, she looked down and noticed a field of white fill her view. She reached out with her hand and weaved it through its long locks. It felt as smooth as silt and she deemed it to be one of her favorite things about her lover. Being able to touch something so precious felt like a privilege and she took advantage of being the only one allowed to do so.

Eventually her actions must have done something as Weiss soon began to stir awake. Her head turned and her eyes gaze upwards meeting Ruby's own. Smiling down, Ruby reached out with her other hand and used it to caress her cheeks earing a smile in return. Leaning down, Ruby placed a kiss on the other girl's lips. The kiss was meant to be short but her urges said otherwise as the kiss deepened. Her stomach though ruined the moment when a loud growl let itself be heard.

"Someone hungry?" Weiss laughed earing a pout from Ruby.

"Yes. The little one and I are starving to be honest." Ruby grumbled.

"Well than from what I smell your father must be cooking something good. Hopefully that will be enough to satisfy you both." The heiress got up from the bed and stretched. "What time is it anyways?"

Ruby leaned over to her dresser and looked at her scroll. "Wow. It's a little after five in the evening."

"So, we pretty much slept the day away."

"Yep." Ruby said as she hopped off the bed. "It's fine though. We still got a few more days to stuff before we have to head back anyways."

"I suppose. I just don't like to waste time."

"I know princess but you have to admit that it was a good nap."

"Any nap with you is good." Weiss said with a grin. The pair soon made their way downstairs to find Tai just finishing up setting the table.

"Oh, girls. I was just about to go upstairs and tell you that supper was ready." He said.

"It's okay. Ruby's stomach let us know." Weiss said, earning a hearty laugh from the older man and a pout from her girlfriend.

"Well, let us eat." The three of them took their places at the table, Tai sitting on the end with Ruby and Weiss sitting next to each other to his right.

Ruby was so hungry that she pretty much had a mountain of food on her plate and was about to get more before she noticed her father looking at her rather suspiciously causing her to slow down a bit.

They continued their meal with Weiss and her father talking about various school assignments while Ruby most kept to adding a few comments here and there while eating.

"So, Ruby. I have a question for you." Her father said.

Ruby took a sec to swallow her food before replying. "Sure dad. What do you want to know?"

He looked at her with a smile. "How long have you and Weiss been dating?"

Ruby looked at her father wide eyed as Weiss, who was taking a drink of her water at the time, spit her water across the table.

'Ah, shit.'

Well fuck. Tai knows that they are dating now and the next chapter will feature an interesting conversation between the three. I will get that up as soon as I can but I still go to write another chapter for A New World and do one for my new story The Guardians: Awakening, which btw if you haven't looked at yet please do. It is WhiteRose as well and it will pretty much become my main focus once I get to a certain point in both this story and the other one. I still have plenty more to write for them both of course so don't think they are just about over quite yet.

Thank you all very much and I will see you again soon! Please review!
