A/N: There's a new drunken marriage story out there, a Weiss/Jaune one. "A Drunken Frost Knight Marriage" by Venom Spirit.
Speaking of which, I might do one with Jaune and Kali at some point.
Alright, let's get to the reason why you're here. Here's chapter 12. Enjoy :)
Jaune could only stare at Glynda with wide eyes. "Uh, I'm sorry could you repeat that?" He asked with general confusion. He wasn't honestly sure if he heard her correctly.
"Personal assistant," Glynda repeated, putting much emphasis on each syllable. "Due to you causing and participating in the food fight, you are to be my personal assistant for as long as it takes to make up for it," she said with authority while adjusting her glasses. Jaune blinked. "I take it you were expecting something else?"
"Well, yeah," Jaune shrugged. "I mean I was expecting detentions, extra work, maybe the threat of suspension, but personal assistant? I thought you wanted to avoid rumors about us."
"Yes, it is an unusual punishment but I also need to set an example to the others. Besides, giving my reputation, everyone else would think that I'm putting you through hell, so I wouldn't worry about rumors," Glynda explained her reasoning.
"Yeah, that makes sense I guess," Jaune said as he cupped his chin. Glynda could tel he was still uncomfortable. He mind instantly came up with something to put his mind at ease.
"If it helps, there is also another reason for it."
"Oh?" Jaune raised an eyebrow.
"I'm your wife, do as you're told," she said with a straight face.
"Yes dea-" Jaune cut himself off as he realized what he was about to say. He didn't even think about saying it, it was if it was off of pure instinct. He looked back up and saw Glynda with a stoic face, but with one corner of her lips curved up being the only indication that she was holding back her amusement.
Jaune just sighed and his face behind his hands. "You're enjoying my misery, aren't you?" The other of corner of her lip curved up. "You're evil. Like, saturday morning cartoon villain kind of evil." And then Glynda started chuckling, and he joined in.
"Alright well, I suppose you could help me with just one thing for today," Glynda said, while also hinting it as a question.
"Sure," Jaune nodded. "What do you need?"
"Well, I recently acquired some new bookshelves," she motioned behind him and Jaune turned to see the empty shelves and the books in several piles on the floor.
"Ah, you want some help restocking them?" Jaune caught on.
"It would make it easier, if you wouldn't mind," Glynda found that she couldn't maintain eye contact with him for some reason.
"Alright. Shall we get started?" Jaune asked as he stood up.
"Yes please," Glynda stood up as well and they both walked over to the bookshelf. "I accidentally knocked over some of the piles so we might have to sort through them."
"No problem," Jaune said as he walked up next to her. "Is there any specific organization to these?" Jaune asked as he looked over the three piles.
"One row is supposed to have books on Grimm anatomy, another on dust, and the last is my personal stash," she said as she motioned between the book piles and the three shelves. "And I would like them in alphabetical order as well. Though I think I got the piles mixed up as well by accident," she admitted sheepishly.
"That's no problem," Jaune rubbed his hands together. "Alright, which one shall we do first?"
Over the course of the next hour, Jaune and Glynda Arcwitch worked on organizing the bookshelves. The ones that went on the top self would have been an issue for Jaune, but the bookshelves same with one of those ladders on wheels, which he thought was cool. They got one of the shelves fully stocked and half of the way done. They would have gotten more, if not all of it done by now, but they kept getting side tracked.
"What? No way, that can't be," Glynda said with him.
"Yes, that did actually happen," Jaune said with crossed arms. This time they got sidetracked by talking about X-ray and Vav.
"Well I mean I did think his name was silly, but the Murder Prophet was still a fleshed out and menacing villain. I kind of liked him. But you're telling me-"
"That he was a total dweeb? Yes, yes he was," Jaune replied with a small smile
"I call bull," Glynda shook her head, an amused small smile slowly forming on her face. "I refuse to believe that such an amazing character was once like that."
"Oh ho ho, would you be surprised," Jaune chuckled with amusement.
"Prove it," she challenged.
"You know what, fine. Come here," Jaune stood up and led her to her office desk and computer. Glynda sat down in her chair and Jaune stood at her side. "Here, pull up Youtube." She did and he typed the name of a video.
Thus, Jaune proceeded to show Glynda one of the earliest X-ray and Vav episodes ever made. Its animation was, understandably, of lower quality. The dialogue and plot were as cheesy as can be. Glynda continued to stare at the screen as the credits rolled.
"That… that was so bad," she shook her head and looked to him. "And you like this?"
"Liked it," he corrected.
"How the hell did Nolopher Christlan make a masterpiece from this… this bologna?!" she exclaimed.
"This isn't the only version of X-ray and Vav out there," Jaune explained. "There are a lot of different versions out there. The films even borrow a lot from many of the decent good versions."
Glynda didn't buy it. "After seeing that, I refuse to believe any of the shows are good."
"Let me show you." And then Jaune proceed to show Glynda a bunch of episodes from different versions of X-ray and Vav. Glynda even moved over so they could share her seat together. Both of them became so engaged into the episodes that they didn't notice that their hands touched and turned to hold one another. Eventually Jaune noticed something.
"Oh..." Jaune hovered the mouse near the clock at the bottom right for emphasis.
"Oh," Glynda uttered when she saw the time. They realized that they spent almost three hours watching X-ray and Vav episodes online, laughing and commenting and having fun with one another. "Time does fly."
"Huh, I guess it does," Jaune agreed. "Should we uh..."
"Get those bookshelves done?" Glynda finished his sentence rather quickly, as if she was embarrassed.
"Yeah, that," Jaune agreed. The pair then got up to finish their work, completely oblivious to the fact that they were still holding hands until they got back to the selves. It took another half hour but they finally finished.
Glynda took a step back and admired their handy work, with a smile on her face and a hand on her hip. "It looks good," she said as she looked up at Jaune, who was at the top of the latter fixing something on the other self. "Thanks again Jaune."
"No problem Glynda, happy to help," Jaune responded honestly as he fixed a book's position. He then propelled himself and the wheeled ladder to the right. "So how often will I-" SNAP "Ah!"
The right wheel on the ladder snapped off, sending the ladder off balance and throwing Jaune off with his arms flailing around. Glynda gasped and was moving before she even knew what happened, arms out ready to catch him.
"I got yo- oof!" She shouted quickly as Jaune landed on her, forcing them both to the ground. Jaune eyes were closed and he felt dizzy from the fall for a few moments, though his senses recovered very quickly.
His body landed on something warm and soft instead of the cold hard floor. His legs seemed to be on top of two others. One hand seemed to be clamped on a shoulder while the other was steadying himself. He felt both of her arms wrapped around him from when she catched him. He felt something soft pressed against his lips. Ever so slowly, his eyes opened and stared into a pair of shocked emerald eyes.
'Oh my God, I'm kissing Glynda!' He shouted in his mind. 'I'm kissing Glynda! Oh god oh god oh god! She's going to kill me!' Jaune wasn't an idiot. He and Glynda have both been avoiding any and all topics about discussing their situation whenever they could because they both were uncomfortable with it. They only made small jabs at eachother in private to try and help ease the mood of the situation, nothing that friends wouldn't do. But now here he was, pinning her to the floor while he kissed her. She no doubt was beyond mad and was plotting his death.
But as the seconds ticked away, Jaune couldn't help but notice something, something important. Glynda wasn't making any moves to push him away, and he wasn't pulling away from her despite every survival instinct telling him to. Instead, Jaune felt Glynda's arms tighten around him. At the same time, he brought his other hand to her arm and tightened his grip on her.
Both of their eyes slowly closed and they both pressed their lips harder together, their heads slowly turning side to side as their noses lightly brushed against each other. Their lips parted barely for a moment for them to quickly take in much needed air before connecting once more. Their red cheeks irradiated a comfortable warmth to one another. Jaune's heart was pounding like crazy in his chest, and he could feel hers doing the same. He felt Glynda stick the tip of her tongue out and slowly drag it across his upper lips before retreating. Jaune returned the favor, brushing the tip of his tongue on and enjoying the taste of her bottom lip.
"Waa- oomph!" Both of their heads snapped away immediately and looked towards the door. The door was open and Nora Valkyrie was lying on the floor, eyes wide like a deer in headlights. "Uhh…." her turquoise eyes alternated between staring at shocked, embarrassed blue and emerald eyes.
Jaune and Glynda's minds raced with thoughts a mile a minute. They briefly shared a glance at one another to see if they were thinking of the exact same thing. They were. Nora was not the best at keeping secrets. When she walked into team RWBY's dorm and saw that Blake was actually a faunus, she immediately ran back to her room and loudly exclaimed her shock to her teammates. Glynda was patrolling the halls that night and heard her yelling from down the hall.
They reached a consensus. Nora could not leave this room. "So I'm,-" Nora made to quickly get up and leave. Jaune and Glynda were faster. The scuffle lasted only a few moments. Glynda managed to get the door slammed shut with her semblance, and Jaune managed to restrain Nora by holding her in the air with her arms behind her back.
"Hey! Hey! Let me go!" Nora struggled, kicking her feet in the air wildly.
"Nora wait," Jaune calmly said to his teammate. He absolutely hated having to restrain her like this, but he knew that she more than likely would have run away and told the rest of their team, and maybe also RWBY, about what she has seen. The what the last thing they needed right now. "Nora, please. Just calm down and let m-"
"No!" Nora continued to resist. "I won't allow it! You will not include me in your nefarious boop-boop activities!" At this, Glynda and Jaune both froze and slowly looked at Nora with wide eyes.
"... I'm sorry, what now?" Jaune finally managed to croak out.
"I read it in Blake's books!" Nora exclaimed as she stopped struggling. "I caught you in a taboo relationship and about to boop each other, but then you found me spying on you and now you're gonna make me be quiet about your relationship by including me in your love making! Well, it won't work! Even if you do include Ren!"
The room fell into an awkward silence. Jaune dropped Nora after a few moments and she landed on her butt. She looked back up and saw Jaune with a stoic, blank face. Glynda had it as well. They looked as though they were trying, and failing, to comprehend something. Jaune brought hands up to cover his face and heavily sighed. Glynda remained frozen but with her face as red as a tomato.
"Nora," Jaune said slowly as he dragged his hands down his face, "we… we weren't going to do… that."
"Sure did look like it with you on top of her," Nora muttered.
"I can assure you that we weren't," he tried to reason again.
"Then what were you two doing?" Nora asked as she stood up and crossed her arms.
Jaune paused trying to think of what to say. "Um... Nora... we..." he tried to speak, but the words kept dying in his mouth.
Still blush from earlier, Glynda piped in. "Perhaps you should tell her Jaune?"
"Wait, are you sure?" he says a bit shocked.
"I don't like it either," Glynda said as she turned her glance at Nora with the sternest look she could make. "But from what she's seen... she'll probably blab about it if she doesn't get context. If she can keep a secret for now, how ever unlikely it maybe, then it should be fine," she reluctantly admitted.
"... ok then," Jaune then lead Nora out of her office and closed the door behind him.
Jaune led Nora down the hall, trying to find a good spot to settle and explain things to her. He could find an empty classroom or a secluded hallway, but he didn't want to take the chance of having someone accidentally stumbling in on their conversation. Eventually, he just settled for a storage closet.
He made sure no one was around before closing the door and walking up to his teammate. "Nora, look I-"
"Is she blackmailing you?" Nora burst out suddenly, looking up at her fearless leader with worrying eyes and her hands together.
"Huh?" Jaune honestly wasn't expecting that to be Nora's first thought. He stayed quiet to let her continue.
"Did she find out about your transcripts? Or did… what happened in Vale was so bad that you deserve to be expelled or worse so she's forcing you to cater to her needs as a bribe?" Jaune blinked, and Nora took his silence as a 'yes'. "Jaune if she's forcing you into anything, you can tell us and we can help you."
"Nora, look I-..." Jaune couldn't find the words. A small part of him was feeling anger at Nora, for finding out about them and for even to dare accuse Glynda of such a thing. But it was overshadowed by his rational side. Nora didn't know what was actually happening, and he was glad that she was trying to look out for one of her friends.
"Nora, I understand you're worried, and I'm thankful that you're looking out for me, I really am. But please don;t worry about it. I have it under contr-"
"You said the same thing about the thing with Cardin," Nora reached forth and grabbed his hands, "and that almost went on forever and only ended when a giant Ursa almost killed you two! Jaune please, we're here for you, just tell us… what's wrong..." Nora's fingers felt around Jaune's hand, feeling for something. "What's that?"
Jaune sighed, figuring it's best to get it over with. "It's a wedding ring," he said bluntly. Nora gasped and took his glove off. She turned his hand around, getting a different view of the ring. She looked into Jaune's eyes.
"G-Glynda?" she pointed at the ring. Jaune nodded, confirming what she was thinking. "Jaune, what's going on?" Shock and confusion irradiated from her voice.
"Here," Jaune sat back against the wall and motioned for Nora to do the same, "it's a long story." And thus, Jaune proceeded to tell Nora what happened. From the night at the Crow Bar, to the phone call with dad, the latter breaking, and how they were afraid Nora would accidentally spill the beans to someone. Though he left out some details and added some false ones to leave out any implication that they had sex. Nora didn't need to know that. By the end of it, the shock and confusion on her face was gone, replaced with amusement.
"Alright Nora, let it out," Jaune sighed while Nora got the laughter out of her system. After several moments she calmed down.
"I'm s-sorry, but that's just silly," Nora wiped away a fake tear from her eye. Jaune could only shake his head with a light hearted smile.
"Alright, so Nora, can you please not mention anything about this to anyone, please? I don't want any attention on us? In fact can you just pretend that you don't know anything?" Jaune asked.
"Pretend I don't know anything about what?" Nora said, giving off a knowing smile and tilted her head to the side while giving a salute.
"Thank you," Jaune said as he stood up and stretched. "And sorry about restraining you earlier. We honestly thought you were going to accidentally expose us and we panicked."
"Nah, its fine," she waved off.
"Thanks. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm ready to head back to the room. I've had enough excitement for one day." As if he tempted fate, the closet door burst open. In came Sky and Velvet, who were too busy tongue battling to notice them until they bumped into Jaune. They immediately backed away and stared at him with wide eyes and embarrassed blushes.
All four huntsmen and huntresses exchanged looks with one another, unsure of what to do. "This never happened," Sky finally said.
"Agreed," the other three chorused as Jaune helped Nora up.
"So..." Velvet couldn't help herself. "Was that you and Nora the other night in Va-"
"Hello? Cardin and Coco?" Jaune said as he held up his hand to the side of his head like a scroll. "Yes, did you guys know that two of your teammates are going behind your ba-"
"Point taken, shutting up now!" Velvet shouted quickly, hiding behind a very embarrassed Sky.
"Good," Jaune motioned for Nora to follow him out of the closet. "And the answer is no, by the way. Me and Nora are not a thing." Jaune barely closed the door when Sky and Velvet got back to their action.
Nora looked up at her leader, her face showing she put two and two together from what velvet said. 'You and Glynda?' She mouthed while tapping her fingers together. Jaune just sighed and nodded. Nora had to use both hands to hide her smile. He just motioned for her to follow him back to the down the hall, Nora spoke up.
"Hey Jaune, can you clarify something?" she asked.
"Uhh, what is it?" he asked.
"You said that this happened because you were at a place called the Crow Bar, right?"
"Yes," he answered
"And it was a drink called Nigrum Ex?"
"Yes… why?" He raised an eyebrow.
Nora blinked. "No reason."
As soon as Jaune closed the door behind him and took Nora with him, Glynda released a breath she didn't know she was holding and rubbed her temples. "Oh dear lord, I don't want to deal with this," she muttered in frustration. She turned around and walked back to her desk, noting the broken ladder. "What bad luck," she commentated. Her eyes shot open. She rushed to the window, slamming her hands against the window sill. From the side of the window, a crow panicky flew away, frightened by her sudden appearance.
Glynda's eye twitched. "I'm going to get a cat, and I'm going to train it to eat birds." She then closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm her nerves. She then sat down on her chair and recounted what just happened.
She kissed Jaune. She kissed a student. It was an accident, but she pressed into it, deepened it, licked his lips, held him close and tight. She made out with a student. Part of her mind screamed. She shouldn't have done that. It was wrong on many different levels.
Yet…
Glynda brushed her fingers over her lips after running her tongue over them, finding the smallest trace of the flavor of her husband's lips. Her body had never heated up like that before, nor has her heart raced like it had when she kissed him. It was a very pleasant feeling, intoxicating, even exciting.
She wanted more.
A/N: No Nora, no!
