Today had started embarrassingly for Garnet. She forgot to take off the cat ear headband and kept it on until Ruby laughed at her when she went for the shower.
After putting it on Yang while she slept, taking a picture and setting it as her wallpaper, then taking it off Yang, Garnet went for that shower.
Showers were a dangerous thing for Garnet. Racist would think that the vampire would be hurt by the water but being a Faunus it was a little different. If too much water were to get into Garnet's mouth and down her throat it would spell trouble. The only thing Garnet's body can properly process is blood, if she were to eat anything or drink more than a cup her body would force it out. Anything other than blood doesn't provide her nourishment or quenches her thirst.
Garnet turned on the hot water and stepped towards the side, waiting for the water to heat up. Speaking of heating up Yang snuck into the bathroom and wrapped her arms around Garnet's waist, shocking her due to the sudden contact.
"Don't scare me like that darling" Garnet smiled and placed a hand over Yang's
"You're cute when you're surprised" Yang defended
"Hey Yang" Garnet said
"Yeah Batty?"
"If you keep pressing your chest into my back I won't be able to hold back"
"So don't" Yang flirted
After some physical activity and showering to wash off the stench the two girls left the bathroom. After getting dressed and heading downstairs Garnet and Yang saw Weiss, Ruby, and Winter sitting together drinking tea.
"Yes um I humbly hope that you find our um estate pleasant" Ruby nervously said, desperate to impress the sister of both her partner and soon to be sister in law
"This house is ideal for a short vacation" Winter responded and took a sip of tea
Ruby just needed to impress Winter, more than anything.
"Good morning Garnet, did you sleep well?" Weiss excitedly asked
"Y-Yeah...I'm fine Weiss….sis" Garnet nervously answered and slightly blushed
"You are too cute!" Yang declared and held Garnet's hand with her own
"I hope you did actually talk last night and didn't do anything promiscuous with my baby sister" Winter told Yang
"Hehehe, come on. I wouldn't do anything like that" Yang laughed it off
"Yeah right" Ruby and Weiss both thought along with Garnet
"Hey Yang, let's make everyone breakfast" Garnet tried to save her fiancee
"It's lunch time" Winter corrected
"Right lunch come on" Garnet pulled Yang into the kitchen
Once inside Yang let out a sigh of relief.
"Your sister is scary"
"I like her so can you pretty please try to get along?" Garnet asked
Yang hugged Garnet and whispered into her ear "Anything you want Batty"
"So um...I-I can't cook" Garnet blushed
Yang kissed Garnet's cheek to get her to relax.
"Leave everything to me Batty"
After a childhood of her father and uncle working early in the morning and unable to make breakfast or their lunches in addition to being away on missions, it fell to Yang to as the older sister to learn how to cook. According to Ruby, Yang was a damn good cook at that. Yang has helped Garnet become more comfortable with what she is but despite that she wishes she could eat Yang's cooking.
While Yang was cooking Garnet walked behind her and leaned against Yang's back, resting her head on her lover's shoulder with her arms wrapped around her waist.
"Garnet, much as I love you taking me from behind I need to go get a knife"
Garnet used her semblance to let her arm reach the drawer across the room and get Yang a knife.
Lunch took twice as long to cook due to Garnet's interference. Once the delicious looking food was done Garnet helped Yang bring it out to everyone.
Yang had made macaroni and cheese, chicken fingers with ketchup, and milkshakes.
"Quite a….unique cuisine" Winter commented
"Garnet. Get the fries" Yang said with a scary voice
In less than a minute Garnet came back with a plate of hot fries which she placed on the table. The cute little corgi Zwei put his front paws on the table to try and get at the food.
"Zweeeeei" Ruby said as she picked up her dog "Where have you been. I feel like I haven't seen you in months"
Zwei barked.
"Evil little demon" Garnet grumbled as Yang and Weiss started to pet Zwei
"Jealous?" Winter asked Garnet
"Hmm!" Garnet grunted and continued to glare at the corgi
"The food will get cold" Winter said
The attention went off of Zwei and Yang's attention was back on Garnet which made her give her sister a thankful smile.
"Alright Weiss, Winter, you gotta try this" Yang declared as she brought over a plate of fries and a milkshake
"Try what?" Weiss asked
"Dip a fry in the shake it's amazing" Yang tried to persuade them
Not wanting to be a bad guest Winter did as suggested and had to admit "This is delicious"
"Winter don't humor her" Weiss sighed
"This actually is quite good Weiss" Winter said as she had another
Weiss sighed and tried one "Well...it's not awful"
Seeing everyone smile and have fun isolated Garnet who was unable to join in. It depressed Garnet to the point she didn't even stop Zwei from biting her leg. Nobody noticed Garnet, just like in the past.
"I'm going for a walk" Garnet said and left the house
Once a good distance away Garnet started beating herself up.
"Come on they're just enjoying themselves why am I so pissed? My two families are getting along, I should be happy but instead I'm moping"
"What the hell is wrong with me?" Garnet asked out loud
Garnet's scroll rang which she quickly brought out in the hope Yang noticed she was gone. Instead Garnet received a voice message from an unknown number. After turning up the volume to max Garnet hit play.
"Broken strings" the voice belonged to Faux Schnee
The scroll fell out of Garnet's hand and onto the ground below as she entered a trance state. Above Garnet a airship neared and hovered at the edge of a cliff.
"Get on the ship"
Garnet's legs moved on their own as she walked towards the airship. Once on board the hatch closed and Garnet was forced into a containment pod by a Schnee soldier. The pod was airtight, specifically designed to keep Garnet inside. In her state she wouldn't try to escape, she was unable to move or even think.
The airship whisked Garnet off to the last place on Remnant she ever wished to be. Schnee Manor.
