Yang POV:
It's finally Friday. Finally the day where Neo and I can go and do something. I'm glad she's feeling better after she got out yesterday. I really like her… I hope she'll learn to trust me enough to talk to me. I want to hear what her voice would be. I bet it's soft and caring... Well, I guess I'll never know until she trusts me enough. Tonight is a good way to get more trust because I guess it's technically a date. Wait, a date. And she said yes, so does that mean she likes me too? Crap. Crap. Crap. I gotta make everything perfect for this. I don't wanna mess this up.
"Yang! What are you doing?" Weiss asks me, looking really shocked. Apparently, while I was thinking, I was unconsciously moving everything in the room around.
"Oh, sorry. I do that when I'm nervous." I say, blushing a little bit.
"What could you possibly be nervous about?" Blake asks me.
"She has terrible date anxiety. That's the only thing that makes her nervous. So, who's the guy?" Ruby asks from her bunk, engrossed in a weapons magazine, but still connected enough to the conversation to be able to interject.
"It's not really a… guy." I say, blushing a deep crimson.
"Welcome to the club, sis." Ruby says again, putting away her magazine and hopping down from her bunk.
"What do you mean, club?" I ask.
"I mean the club of lesbians here. Everyone in this room is one now, Yang. Just look around." Ruby says, and sure enough, Blake and Weiss are on Weiss's bed snuggling it up.
"Oh yeah. I forgot that you two were together. And THAT my friends, is why my grades aren't very good. Anyways, yeah. I had better be off to get ready. It starts at six. It's five right now. Need to go and pick her up soon. Anyways, see you guys later!" I say, walking quickly towards the door.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Ruby says, running in front of the door to block my escape while waving a finger back and forth.
"R-Ruby? What are you doing?" I ask, trying to move around her, but to no avail.
"Yang Xiao Long, you are not leaving until you tell us who you're going on a date with!" Ruby says with a triumphant smile.
"And why should I, miss 'heat cure'?" I growl back at her.
"You're not still mad about that, are you? Hey, I said I was sorry!" Ruby says.
"Yes, I am still mad about that. You had SEX, Ruby! At sixteen! I know it wasn't with a guy, but still! It's not good. Imagine what kind of image do you want to set for those new huntresses and huntsmen in training? They'll think it's ok to go around and just give themselves to people!" I yell.
"Oh yeah? Then explain to me when you had sex at fifteen and you're getting mad at me!" I blush for a second, remembering that night.
"Don't you even bring that up right now! That's besides the point!"
"Besides the point?! How the HELL is that besides the point? You get mad at me for having sex at sixteen when you did at fifteen! In reality, I didn't even have sex! I just did it to Vel! I didn't stay around long enough for anything to get done to me. All you are is a fucking hypocrite, Yang. So go on, have fun on your FUCKING date and I'll see you… Whenever. I'm leaving." Ruby says, walking out the door, slamming it in her wake.
"I messed up…" Is all I say before collapsing to the ground.
"Ya' think?" Blake says from behind me.
Velvet POV:
In the middle of the talk Coco and I were having, there's a loud and rather abrupt knock on the door.
"Coming!" I say, walking to the door and looking out the little peephole that's in every team dorm door to see Ruby on the ground, crying outside our dorm. I open the door quickly and pick her up. She cries some more. "Ruby, what happened?" I ask, kissing the top of her head.
"It was… It was Y-yang. She… She's a bitch!"
"Shh… Everything will be okay. Just explain the situation to me and I'll do what I can, okay?"
"Okay…"
