The mood had shifted dramatically after everyone had witnessed what happened between Oscar and Ruby.
No one had said a word, no one had even moved.
As their lips parted, Ruby looked at Oscar, dreamily.
She kept her arms wrapped around him, wanting to lean in again for another kiss.
But, Ruby knowing they were being watched, turned her head a bit as she leaned in.
"Come on, let's get out of here." Ruby whispered.
Ruby shot a quick glare to the audience around them, then proceeded to leave with Oscar at her side.
Later.
Oscar watched as Ruby made coffee for the both of them, overloading hers with cream and sugar.
Oscar thought back and forth on what to say to Ruby, finally blurting out a random thought to her.
"Why didn't you just use your semblance?" Oscar asked.
Oscar covered his mouth, regretting how rude it had sounded.
Thankfully, that thought had crossed Ruby's mind as well.
"It wouldn't have helped, they would've just done the same thing and go after you tomorrow." Ruby told him.
Ruby kept her gaze on the counter as she spoke, not even looking at him as she handed him a cup.
"Thanks." Oscar said.
"No problem." Ruby said.
Ruby sat down right next to him on the bed, awkwardly taking a sip of her coffee.
Just like that, Ruby's scroll started to ring.
"Nora." Ruby read who it was from.
Upon opening the message, she was greeted to a picture, which made Ruby drop her drink.
"What is it?" Oscar asked.
Oscar looked at her scroll, cringing as he saw the picture.
Someone had taken a photo of them kissing.
It seemed the photo had been sent around the school already, getting the word out even more that the two of them were a couple.
"Well, at least it isn't a bad photo." Oscar said, trying to make light of the situation.
Then came the text from Nora.
"Congratulations, you two make such a good couple." Ruby read her text.
Oscar placed a hand on Ruby's shoulder.
"Don't worry, I'm sure it'll all be fine." Oscar assured her.
Ruby smiled, only for her attention to go back to the scroll from another text.
"Yang." She read.
"No." Oscar whispered, in fear.
Opening the message, they were both greeted to the picture again, with a text underneath it.
"What is this?!" They read.
"Okay, I was wrong." Oscar said.
Another message came in, this time from Weiss.
"I should've known." They read.
"Did they just send it out to everyone?" Oscar questioned.
Ruby was about to speak, when her scroll interrupted her again.
It was another message, this time, from her father.
"I think that's a yes." Ruby said.
"Is it too late to go back to running away?" Oscar half joked.
