AUTHORS NOTE: Don't fight. EVER! Fighting is dumb, and 6 people against you is a death wish. I speak from experience.
"If you pick me up, I will throw up on you." Naruto told his best friend when he placed his hands on Naruto's waist. Iron had come first thing in the morning, after everyone was dressed and ready for the day, and he had to make sure that Naruto was doing better than he was the last time he had heard... through email from Blake, who had gotten his Scroll number from Naruto's Scroll... and had given it to the entire Team RWBY... Naruto's N wasn't added to the team, since like Iron, he was a back-up member for the most part, unplanned.
"Unplanned's the understatement. I think it fits along more of 'accidental' lines." Weiss groaned.
"Hey, being an accidents not so bad." Yang revealed about herself.
Blake raised an eyebrow at that.
Iron removed his hands.
"Your first heat, my friend, you are now a true man! Your mom called me, she will be here in the afternoon... I am sorry, but your father could not come. This is truly a happy day... and you are sure you are feeling better?" Iron asked as he glanced over Naruto's body. Naruto had a few red marks on his neck.
"What are those from?" Ruby asked.
Iron looked at those red marks.
"What?" Naruto asked, his teammates were watching this happen with raised eyebrows.
"Naruto... you have... beautiful eyes! So filled with the brim of blue life!" Iron said with a wide grin on his face. Yang was literally in the room, and Ruby wouldn't have a clue what he was talking about if he mentioned the hickies.
"Okay, what the hells up?" Yang asked while furrowing her brows. She didn't care whether or not Iron was gay, but if he, or any other carbon based life form tried to put the moves on her bunny boy, she'd roast them!
"He's just affectionate?" Ruby questioned with a beat to her voice. "Also what is a hickey?"
Yang might explode with rage, and while he himself was innocent... at least he knew what a hickie was... and that Naruto most likely had sex yesterday.
"Rough and not so lovey sex." Yang mentioned.
"Rough, is not the word I would use." Weiss exclaimed.
"Are you two secretly gay?" Weiss asked with a raised eyebrow, not sure how far this 'best friendship' actually went.
"I'm starting to follow up on my assumption." Weiss remarked.
"Are you homophobic along with being racist?" Blake questioned.
"Neither!" Weiss shouted.
"Yeah, if anyone's gay its me!" Ruby shouted.
...
...
...
"Uhhhh, did I say something wrong? I meant gay as in happy." Ruby summed up with her hands. She truly did mean it in the context but with it being mentioned in the book as homosexual, things got mixed up.
Her team shook their heads.
Ruby was smart, just naive of certain areas.
"Ruby, please don't talk." Yang pleaded.
"Told you people thought we were gay." Naruto told Iron neutrally. He wasn't gay, he could admit when a guy was attractive, but that was pretty much the extent. He literally could NOT be gay, Rabbit Faunus couldn't be gay. The second a Rabbit Faunus went into heat, they were utterly repulsed by men, and often times became violent with them. They were naturally geared towards finding somebody to breed with.
"So in standards, Naruto in this world is anti-guy and anti-guy when in heat... Cool." Yang smiled.
"No fair maiden, our relationship is one of beautiful rivalry. If my rival is sick, if my rival is hurt... then the eternal relationship between us will be off balanced. When I challenge Naruto, it must be when he is at 100%." Iron said almost religiously when his eyes sparkling. Naruto pushed Iron out of the room, before he started to close the door behind him.
"Pffffft, hahahahahahahahahaha!" Ruby guffawed at the scene. She really liked Iron and his wording to his 'rivalry' with Naruto.
"Did he just call me a 'fair maiden'?" Weiss asked with a twitching brow.
"I'm taking another sick day, I feel better, but I still might throw up. I am growing used to the cinnamon." Naruto told his friend.
"Are you sure you aren't gay?" Weiss asked Naruto when he laid back down on his bed. The person that Naruto talked to the most was a huge guy covered in muscles. Naruto didn't talk to any women if he didn't have to, and he was super nervous around them. It would only make sense for him to play for the other team.
"If he's gay, then I'll just have to scare him straight!" Yang shouted, with Blake slamming her head on the table.
'Every. FUCKING... TIME!' Blake repeated.
"Top or bottom?" Blake asked with a slight smile on her face as she read one of her books. This book was about Boy's Love, though she wouldn't admit that little fact out loud.
Blake looked to the right as she tried to get up and walk away, but was caught in a headlock by Yang.
"Any stories you'd like to share Blakey?" Yang questioned whimsically.
"None with you!" Blake replied harshly.
"The book said you read smut? BOY ON BOY SMUT!? What's wrong with you?" Weiss questioned as she made a sick face.
"It's not smut! It's refined literature." Blake said.
"Eh can it Weiss, at least Blake's got some courage to read smut out in plain sight. So tell me, in your honest opinion, who was hotter?" Yang asked Blake with a fiery glint in her eye. "Because if you think of having romantic fantasies of Naruto and that meat head... I'll kill you."
Blake gulped before nodding.
"Good!" Yang chirped before sending the book back. "By the way, lend me that 'Boys love book' when we get back."
"I don't have it." Blake said, but covered her mouth.
'Well, at least not right this second...' She added in her mind.
"You... aren't gay right?" Yang asked with a pale face. She was almost shaking, if Naruto was gay then... no... if he was gay then that just meant she would have to work that much harder to make him straight.
"Scare him straight!" Yang shouted to her other self.
"Or put you in a straight jacket." Weiss muttered while Ruby thought of it.
"Good idea, a straight jacket!" Yang snickered.
"What does that mean... what does gay mean?" Ruby asked with a confused face. People were throwing around terms she did not understand.
"For the love of everything!" Weiss moaned as she slapped her face.
"Keep reading the line and you'll find out." Blake said to Ruby.
"Straight is when a boy and girl like each other. Gay is when people of the same gender like each other." Weiss answered for the confused girl, who smiled.
"Oh, thanks Weiss. That makes sense now. I guess I'm gay for all of you." Ruby said without actually thinking.
3 heads hit the table simultaneously.
"What... The hell." Weiss repeated herself.
"Is wrong with this girl?" Blake questioned herself.
"She wasn't dropped... Much." Yang said.
"Oh, then I guess I am gay for you all then... and totally straight for you Naruto. As leader, I like all of my team." Ruby said as she placed her thumb into her chest. Naruto snorted for a moment, as annoying as it was to have his sexuality questioned, Ruby's ignorance was rather amusing to him.
"Amusing. That's not the word I'd use." Weiss said as she folded her arms.
"Love, not like... and romantic love... and sexual love. Ruby, do you think boys or girls are cute?" Blake questioned the girl. She had to wonder what the younger girl's sexual preference was, since she gave off some very lesbian vibes most of the time... it was only the fact Yang was crushing and lusting after Naruto that kept Blake from suspecting her of being a lesbian.
"I am not a lesbian!" Ruby shouted, before she lost her anger and was replaced into a thinking state. "What's a lesbian?" She asked.
"Yeah, do you like boys or girls?" Weiss asked.
"I... Really don't care, or know. Raghu! This is confusing!" Ruby shouted. She was at an age where she would endure new feelings and those said feelings would change over time.
"Lesbian." Weiss said to Ruby.
"Homophobe." Blake called to Weiss.
"Smut reader!" Weiss yelled at Blake.
"Smut lover!" Yang cheered proudly.
"Uhhh, gun nut?" Ruby said about herself.
"Oh... so THAT is what you meant... you guys think Naruto is gay? That is weird, I mean, he doesn't give off those vibes to me. He is just really shy, right Naruto?" Ruby asked as she jumped on Naruto's bed and looked at him in the eyes.
"I think she's straight... Maybe." Blake said to herself, unsure.
"I'm right here you know!" Ruby shouted.
"I'm straight, just timid." Naruto answered in a low voice.
'Phew, close call. Thank you FTDS for gifting me with a straight boy toy for me.' Yang prayed.
"Oh thank god." Yang muttered underneath her breath. Blake smirked behind her book for a moment, while Naruto gave her a raised eyebrow. That explained a good bit... after his first heat, Naruto's body lost it's ability to ignore the smell of sex hormones. Ever since he had returned to the room, Naruto had been able to smell how... much Yang reeked of the stench of sex pheromones.
She was lusting after him.
"Caught." Blake called.
"Like a rat in a trap." Weiss said who high fived Blake. Yang crossed her arms and pursed her lips. Making a pout face.
That explained her... strange behavior, she didn't seem to know what to do with her feelings. Not that it mattered to him, if was up to her to make a move on him. He wasn't going to make a move on her.
"Friendzoned." Weiss said.
"Ohhhh, so pursued it is then." Yang collected.
"Well, I don't have a preference... how about you Weiss? You have a preference for one sex over another?" Blake asked with a look at Weiss.
"Boys, if I liked girls my father would throw a fit." Weiss stated, with Naruto frowning deeply.
"That's nice of him." Ruby commented dryly.
"What a Schnee." Naruto said lowly, but not low enough. Weiss stood up, before she marched over to Naruto's bed and glared down at him.
"I'm honestly not going to complain. I know what's to be expected of this." Weiss said.
"Wow... That's very mature of you." Blake noted.
"I wasn't different from the year starting. I accept that." Weiss said.
"What is that suppose to mean?" She asked, not liking the tone he said that with. She didn't like how her family name was being used that way.
"Come on, no fighting. We only have an hour before class starts, and Naruto, isn't your family coming today? Everyone smile!" Ruby said with a large smile on her face, though it was obviously forced.
"This is going smoothly." Blake said.
"Like a banana through a bottle." Yang said.
"Bad joke." Ruby said to Yang.
"You shouldn't be surprised, Faunus and the Schnee family do not get along. I don't know many Faunus who don't hate the Schnee." Blake said, not revealing that she herself was a Faunus.
"Pretty badly since two guys figured you were on day one." Yang said to Blake.
"Naruto is a faunus, like me." Blake mentioned.
"And Iron's an idiot, who found out." Yang pointed out.
"Why I never..." Weiss started out, and Naruto looked at her out of the side of his eye.
"Yeah, you never... and you're father never cared about Faunus enough to pay them what they deserved for doing such hard work in dangerous conditions. Seriously, it is disgusting. When somebody says 'What a Schnee' it means how ignorant someone can be." Blake told Weiss with a scowl on her face. Ruby moved between Blake and Weiss next, because she could see that a fight was about to break out.
"Okay, that was low. I'm sorry." Blake apologized to Weiss.
"None taken." She commented.
"Come on guys, lets not break down now, our team just formed." Ruby pleaded with them, and Naruto sat up for a moment and stared at Ruby.
"I don't hate the Schnee." Naruto told Weiss. He didn't hate them, he just didn't like or trust them. Of course, he didn't trust anyone that he didn't know, but he trusted the Schnee even less than that.
"Probably the first Faunus to not hate a Schnee. No offense." Yang said as Weiss forced a smile.
"None... Taken." She said painfully.
Being nice... Was hard.
Weiss narrowed her eyes at Naruto for a moment.
"Yang, do something." Ruby muttered to her sister, who was trying to figure out how she could stop this from getting physical.
"Listen everyone, we just started to live together. Schnee, Faunus, Human, or whatever... it doesn't matter. For the rest of our time at Beacon, we are living together. Blake, you aren't even a Faunus, why do you hate the Schnee?" Yang asked with a raised eyebrow. Oh, she had noticed how spiteful Blake was with her tone when she spoke about the Schnee.
"I might not be a Faunus, but that doesn't mean I have to like how your family has been treating a discriminated race." Blake lied and told the truth at the same time. She changed who she was speaking to from Yang to Weiss halfway through, and Weiss sighed after a moment.
"You think I like it? My grandfather started the company, and my father is dragging the name through the mud... and while I don't like Faunus, have you seen me outright discriminate against them without just cause?" Weiss said without revealing much. She had been willing to help Naruto when he was being bullied, but her curiousity had gotten the better of her and she just watched.
"This was worse then what we had." Ruby noted.
Any Faunus that she disliked, was a Faunus that had shown her that they were capable of criminals acts.
Of course, any Faunus that showed blatant hate against her family was also treated with hate as well.
"This story took a real turn." Yang mentioned.
"Well your father is the reason why the White Fang turned to violence, you can blame your family for how badly Faunus like Naruto are being treated." Blake said as she stood up. Her emotions and passion for her race heating up her blood.
"Kitty needs some catnip." Yang said.
"You bitch, those Faunus turned to violence because they are beasts. Leave my family out of it, my father made mistakes, nobody else." Weiss said as she stepped forward to Blake and pressed up against her.
"Oooooh, this isn't good." Ruby said as she squeezed herself between her teammates and pushed them apart from each other. "Listen guys, lets NOT fight and say we did? I mean, who wants to go get cookies and milk?" Ruby asked them both, while Yang palmed her face.
"Yeah, because diabetes always saves everyone." Weiss said to the TV with a frown.
"Hey! Don't speak ill of thy cookies and milk!" Ruby shouted. "They hear EVERYTHING!"
"Ruby is right, save it for sparring practice." Yang told the two of them, while Naruto felt horrible for starting this entire thing. He needed to watch what he said from now on, sometimes he... well it was only like two days, he wasn't used to sharing a room with anyone but his siblings anyway.
"Fighting and sex always relieves tension." Yang said.
"First, you've never had sex to my prior knowledge. Second, what kind of fighting are you referring to? Unless it's this type of fighting, I'm strongly against it." Weiss meant.
"Not sex sex with two people. Just-
"Yang, stop talking. Dad's never let you date any boys so-" Ruby began to say until Yang cut her off.
"Dad can only put up so many walls, but in time they'll fall... Like Weiss's niceness."
"Give me a break, I'm trying my best here." Weiss said.
"She started it." Weiss said as she pushed Blake away from her.
"Your family started it." Blake said as she pushed Weiss back, and the girl grit her teeth.
"This is getting ugly, like Jaune's pjs." Yang called out.
"Please stop, violence solves nothing." Naruto said in a low voice, and Blake looked down for a moment, before she scoffed and looked away. Blake didn't have the best or most friendly of attitudes. She could be a bit... well she could actually be very angry and bitchy when she wanted to be. Naruto could see it in her very eyes.
"Violence is the best answer. It keeps your thoughts clean until you want them to be released again." Yang said with a wave.
"Only if you're a brainless cow." Weiss said to Yang.
"I'm sorry, but were you trying to be nice?" Yang questioned.
"Won't last forever." Weiss answered.
"Yeah, you're right... violence doesn't solve anything." Blake said, but she did not say anything to Weiss. Despite how she picked up her book, she didn't even try to make any attempts to make ammends with Weiss after that fight.
'Why would I want to? Weiss was, and still is a bitch.' Blake thought.
"See, everyone is friends." Ruby cheered when she saw that nobody was going to fight anyone. She could rest easy knowing that nobody was going to hate anyone before class started. She didn't notice the biting looks that Blake and Weiss sent each other.
"It's not really that hard, accepting each other. It's just listening." Blake said.
"Yes, I know that feeling." Weiss replied.
They were not friends, at best they were tolerating each other.
"We'er... a bit better." Blake stammered in the middle.
"Sort of." Weiss responded.
"You... are you feeling better?" Yang asked Naruto, noticing him groaning as he munched on a cinnamon stick. He was not as affected as before, but it still upset his stomach pretty badly. To think he would need to do this every few months, unless he could find somebody he trusted that would... well somebody that he could have a 'special' relationship with. That, or learn to control his hormones without the need for sex or cinnamon... but he was still young.
"Helloooooo!" Yang hollered at the screen and pointing at herself. "Come on! You may be fake but I can think of a way for you to want me! There's no way I'm going to be the one doing the chasing!"
"Does her father or mother act like her?" Weiss asked as she pointed to Yang yelling profanity to the book.
"Dad used to be reallllly close to mom..." Ruby admitted.
"... Better than last night." Naruto admitted to Yang, who saw him talking to her as progress.
"Well, just text me if you need anything. Come on Blake, let's get out of here and go somewhere more fun before school starts." Yang told Naruto, before she spoke to her partner. Blake looked at Yang with a raised eyebrow, before she yelped when she was pulled right out of the room by the blond haired chick.
"Chick?" Blake questioned the wording. Now she understood the entire english language (names and all), but it didn't mean she approved of certain wording.
"Bellabooty's another, or bellatushie, and the bellarump." Yang listed off.
"Please do your worst to her." Blake spoke to the sky. She was sick of all these terms to her rather round butt... wait, why did she think that?
"Not yet." The voice said.
"You've got nothing on me!" Yang shouted at the voiceless ceiling.
"I can make it so you have nothing covering you." The voice replied.
"Fine, I'll be nice." Yang groaned like she lost the fight.
"I am going to the library." Weiss told Ruby as she left the room, and Ruby sat on the edge of Naruto's bed, not knowing what to do. Her team was already falling apart... and she had no idea how to get them all to just... make up.
"Uuuuuh... this is so hard." Ruby said, or rather complained, to Naruto even though he didn't seem to care that much.
"Trying to keep us from killing eachother? Yeah." Weiss admitted. She wouldn't classify herself as a people person...
"Just keep trying." Naruto told her. He wanted the team to get along as well, less stressful if everyone was getting along and all of that.
"How...?" Ruby asked him with a look that was... adorable.
"I'm not adorable..." Ruby muttered as she pouted with her cheeks puffed out.
"Lock them in a small closet. They'll fight, they'll talk, and then they'll hopefully make up." Naruto explained his own plan. His parents did that to him and his siblings when they fought with each other, though that rarely happened.
"I'd toss my kids in the forest with two pices of a map, then they'd have t work together to get home." Yang said.
"That's awful! I'd make them search through my entire home for a treasure, but the treasure would be teamwork." Weiss replied.
"So... there would be no treasure?" Ruby asked.
"In a way, no." Weiss admitted.
"Lame!" Yang moaned.
"Anything else?" Ruby asked dryly, not to sure that doing that would be a smart idea. It seemed like it only had a 50% chance of working.
"Ruby, you might be a leader, but you aren't our mother. It is good to clear the air sometimes, and both Blake and Weiss are like black and white with each other. They are opposites, so they don't exactly have a lot in common. It is easy for them to get upset with each other." Naruto explained to her. It was much easier for him to talk to people one on one, instead of when a whole group was present. Ruby was also pretty cute and peppy, and she was actually extremely easy to talk to... like an adorable, female Iron.
"But what if the team falls apart?" Ruby asked, and Naruto smiled at her.
"We'll never fall apart. Ever." Yang said.
"Never ever." Blake replied.
"Unless we were to come back to our old ways... or my family got involved." Weiss waved. "But I don't see that happening."
"Then it is our leader's job to put the team back together, better than ever. Sometimes, it is easier to fix something, than to prevent it from breaking." Naruto told her as he sat up on his bed. Ruby smiled at him for a moment.
"Yeah! It's my job to bring the team back together! Even if I'm all by myself." Ruby confirmed.
"Thanks, you're really nice. You know, I might just try that closet idea." Ruby said with a grin on her face. She gave Naruto a 'surprise hug' that shocked him, before she rushed out of the room, unknowingly leaving the door open behind her. Naruto sighed and palmed his head with a smile on his face, before he got up and walked to the door.
"Hmmmm, hey Ruby. Wanna share him?" Yang suggested.
"What!? No!" Ruby said.
"You've already hugged him 3 times... more than you've hugged any boy before." Yang said. "And I haven't even layed a finger on him!"
"You grabbed him and nearly tore his arm off." Blake mentioned.
"I was only being nice!" Ruby defended her hugging.
"You like him." Blake said.
"No I don't! He's a friend! A F-R-I-E-N-D!" Ruby yelled.
He grabbed the knob, before he froze.
"Oh, hello bunny boy... how is it hanging?"
"Who... was that." Yang asked. The voice was female, but not someone she had ever heard before.
"Only one-
"We get it." Weiss answered.
