The Impossible Girl - Chapter 14

"I need you to pick out a tablecloth." Weiss said to her partner, sliding two example clothes in front of her.

It was the start of the second semester, and the school dance was only a day away. As lead organizers, Yang and Weiss only had one more day to fine tune things.

"Aren't they both the same?" Ruby said as she lifted her head off the table.

"Why did I even ask?" She sighed, rolling her eyes for effect.

"Hey Ruby, have you picked out a dress yet?" Yang asked as she put down the speaker she was carrying.

"What's the point? I'm not going with anyone." Ruby mumbled back.

"Lots of people aren't going as couples." Blake stated. "You should go anyway."

"That's going to be hard when I don't own a dress." Ruby admitted. "How long does it even take to get one? 10 minutes? And where do I go, anyway?"

"You don't own a dress." Yang repeated in disapproval. "This is punacceptable. I'm taking you to get a dress. We need to hurry before any stores close down. Let's go!"

"Wait, right now?" Ruby said as Yang swiftly dragged her out of the hall.

Blake turned to Weiss. "You should go with her."

"I'm sorry, what?" The Heiress said, pausing from writing on her clipboard.

"She's not going with anyone and neither are you. You should go with her, you guys are good enough friends."

Weiss' blinked twice in surprise.

"N-no, I'm not just going to ask her, that's weird. Plus she's not into the whole 'formal dance' thing."

"Weiss, come on. She's not into it because she has no one to go with. She'd say yes, you know."

Weiss almost considered the action, before snapping back to her senses. "No, I'll be too busy during the dance either way."

"Alright, whatever you say, Snow Queen." Blake said as she returned to setting up the party. "But don't use being busy as an excuse, procrastinating isn't exactly what I would call work."

Weiss huffed and returned to her clipboard.

"I hate it when she makes a good point." Weiss growled in her head.

"It's perfect." Yang said with a smile.

"Are you sure?" Ruby said, rolling her shoulders. "It feels pretty uncomfortable."

"That's what formal clothes feel like, my dear sister!" Yang said, pulling Ruby in for a noogie. Ruby only managed a weak laugh. Yang frowned.

"Ruby you're not the type of person to get upset over this. What's wrong?"

Ruby stayed silent and stared shamefully at the floor.

"Is this about Weiss?" Yang asked.

"I don't know. Maybe." Ruby admitted.

Yang smiled at her sister. "Ruby, is this about when you kissed her?"

Ruby nodded. "I thought I just had to figure things out, and I did. I liker her. Alot. I've never had a crush before."

"I don't think it's a crush." Yang said. "You guys are way too close for that."

Yang sat down with Ruby at the bench inside the dressing room.

"You know I don't get mad very easily." Ruby began, "But when Weiss was flirting around with Neptune, I just felt like I was burning up."

"You know she wasn't being serious." Yang informed. "She's not really going with him. Just because she thinks he's attractive doesn't mean she's 'in love' with him."

"Are you sure?" Ruby asked.

"Of course. Just look at me, I do it all the time." Yang smiled, raising her eyebrows up and did manage to get a small laugh out of Ruby.

"But what if she's not even, you know, into me?" Ruby asked.

"Well, how did she react to you kissing her?"

Ruby thought back to that moment. "She smiled. And she said I wasn't bad."

"Well there you go." Yang said, helping her sister stand.

"Ruby, I this is going to be tough on you. But, I do think this is going to work itself out soon. You should still go, even if you go alone you still have your friends."

"I guess you're right." Ruby sighed, pulling her sister in for a quick hug.

"Now change and let's go. The dance is tomorrow and you don't want to be too tired." Yang said as she walked out the dressing room door to give her sister some privacy.

Weiss felt full of pride when she looked around the dance. The music was great, couples were dancing, everyone she saw was having a great time. She was able to spot a few familiar faces: Pyrrha was laughing at something Jaune said, Neptune was acting as a judge for Penny and Sun's arm wrestling, a reluctant Ren had Nora piggybacking him, and Blake and Yang were talking to each other over punch.

"I wonder where Ruby ran off to?" The Heiress thought.

Weiss looked over the scene once more, but couldn't see the caped-girl. She searched a bit more and noticed someone sitting on the balcony.

Weiss made her way to the exit to the balcony and peered through the doors to see who was out there. Ruby was sitting on the balcony ledge, looking at the neighboring buildings through the clear night.

"Hey dolt." Weiss said to her partners pack. Ruby jumped a bit.

"Oh, hey princess." Ruby replied, returning to look at the night.

"What are you doing out here?" Weiss said as she sat down next to the caped-girl. "Don't you have a prince charming waiting for you back inside?"

"No, not really." Ruby answered.

"Princess Charming?" Weiss asked with a smile.

"Nope." Ruby said with a small laugh.

The caped-girl continued to stare straight ahead. Weiss grew concerned.

"Nobody asked you? And you didn't ask anyone?"

"Nada. Romance isn't really one of my skills. I don't really have any history in that department." Ruby joked.

"Have you dated anyone?"

Ruby shook her head.

"Who was your first kiss?" Weiss asked.

"What would you consider an actual kiss?"

"I guess anything more than just a few seconds." Weiss said.

"No one."

Weiss turned her head to look at her teammate, her face looking a little shocked and confused.

"Seriously?"

"Well..." Ruby said as she remembered, " If you count short pecks: a boy back at Signal, and you. I've never actually had a real one. I never really bring it up, its kind of embarrassing."

Weiss nodded in understanding. She wanted to make Ruby an offer, but was afraid of getting rejected. A beat of silence passed. The Heiress wanted to take the risk. Afterall, they were such good friends it would matter if she was rejected. Weiss swallowed hard and ignored any worries she had.

"You know I think I could help you out with that." Weiss said, getting up off the ledge and standing in the balcony.

"What do you mean?" Ruby asked with a confused expression as she got up and stood next to her partner.

"I mean that I could be your first kiss." Weiss immediately drew up an excuse. "You know, so you don't have to lie anymore. At Least not to yourself."

"Are you sure?" Ruby asked.

"Of course. As long as you don't mind me being your first." Weiss answered.

"No, I'd rather have it be from someone I like, anyway." Ruby said quickly.

They stood facing each other, both trying to mask their nervousness.

"Um, Weiss?" Ruby said.

"Yes?"

"Thanks for this."

Weiss gave a small smile. "My pleasure."

They both slowly moved forward and tilted their heads slightly. Their lips met and Weiss felt a rush go through her spine. They moved their mouths in synch. She felt Ruby's hand move up and touch the side of her face. Weiss slowly moved her hand to her partner's side.

Things began to progress. Weiss felt her tongue meet Ruby's. Her heart raced. Weiss noticed she had wrapped both arms around Ruby's waist, pulling their bodies closer. She felt Ruby's arm wrapped around her side, her other hand holding the back of her neck.

She began to feel Ruby moan softly into her mouth. Weiss felt good. Really good. She knew she had to stop now before they went too far. They just managed to restrain themselves, moving their mouths just far apart to breathe. They could only manage a pant. The Heiress looked into the hungry silver-eyes of her partner.

"I, um, wow." Ruby managed through breaths.

"I'm sorry, Ruby." Weiss said, realizing what she had done.

"Don't be." The caped-girl said. "I think I need to cool down."

"Me too."

They quickly released each other and straightened out their clothes. They looked around nervously, avoiding eye-contact.

"So, that wasn't weird, right?" Ruby asked.

"No, no." Weiss said, also assuring herself. "Were close friends. Stuff like that was bound to happen."

"And if it happens again that's not weird either." Ruby stated, locking eyes with her partner.

"Of course not." Weiss said with a nervous smile. "It just happens."

"I think it'll happen again soon." Ruby said with an equally as nervous smile.

"Me too." Weiss said as they both turned, ready to blend back in with the dance.
