Disclaimer, I do not own RWBY
AN/ Hello my awesome readers! Sorry it took longer than I expected, but I didn't get the free time needed to actually do so. So after my little cliffhanger, lets see if I can make you guys hate me more or love me, shall we?
All present watched with held breath as a red and black clad arm slowly slid out from the bed. Everyone was silently hoping that Ruby would actually go for the bait, and allow herself to be seen.
"Come on Rubes, go for the strawberries." Yang said under her breath. Suddenly, a blur shot out from the bed. Fearing they had lost her again, causing Yang, Blake and Weiss to frantically search the room.
"We almost had her!" Blake shouted, more annoyed that she was so close to being put at ease than the fact that the plan had failed. Before anyone could voice any other concerns, a face appeared right at the window, startling the three girls.
"Holy hell!" Yang shouted as she unceremoniously fell onto her back. Weiss and Blake were against the other wall while team JNPR stared at them with shock. Before Blake could run over to the window, Weiss stopped her.
"Wait Blake. Before you go running up there and scare her, think for a second." Weiss chastised the faunus. Ruby continued to stare through the window with wide, curious eyes. To everyone in the hallway, Ruby looked so innocent and child like, her hands on the glass and framing her face.
"So if I move slowly, do you think she'll stay?" Blake asked, to which Weiss nodded. Moving slowly, Blake made her way towards Ruby. Reaching the window, Blake put her hands over Ruby's. Ruby and Blake stared into each others eyes, paying no attention to the others. Slowly, Yang picked herself up, and made her way next to Blake.
Ruby shied away, but slowly warmed back up to Yang. Ruby moved her hand so Yang could mimic Blake. Yang and Blake both felt relieved that Ruby was better than she was previously, and was more social as well.
"Ruby, do you know who we are?" Blake asked, loud enough for Ruby to hear through the glass. Ruby's face adopted a heavy thinking look, her eyes shining with sadness soon after.
"Don't worry about that miss Belladonna, its perfectly normal for patients to not have any real memories after the first day. She will need rest before anything really starts coming back to her." Ash explained. Yang and Blake only nodded, turning back to face the younger girl. Ruby took the moment to run back to the plate and grab the strawberries, eating them as the two turned back to face her.
"Weiss, why don't you come up here? Im sure she would love to see you." Yang asked the heiress. Weiss nodded and slowly moved next to the brawler. Ruby turned to see the new addition and nearly choked on her strawberry. Fear lit up in her eyes and she instantly disappeared in a flurry of rose petals.
"What just happened? Weiss, what did you do?" Blake yelled.
"I didn't do anything, I swear!" Weiss retorted, shocked that Ruby was scared of her.
"If I may, before this turns into something." Ash quickly cut in, stopping the two from fighting. "She might know of Weiss, but not who she actually is. I don't have any proof that this is true, but if my guess is right, then she may have recognized you as a Schnee." Ash explained as he stood between the monochrome duo.
"I would say that's right." Sun said as he and Neptune rounded the corner.
"When I was a little kid, I always heard about the Schnee family and was honestly terrified. I never knew what they looked like or who they were. I remember one time I was walking out of a store with my mother, and I almost ran into some guy. He scared me, and only later did I find out it was actually papa Schnee." Sun explained, giving credibility to Ash's statement.
"So what you're saying is, my family is so bad that even seeing one of us is terrifying?" Weiss asked, showing little emotion.
"In a basic sense, yes, it is." Blake answered, no real hate in her voice. Weiss looked saddened at this, though quickly regained her smile once Neptune pulled her into a hug.
"Well then, I say we leave her alone for the night and let her rest, you guys agree?" Yang asked, to which everyone nodded. Slowly, team JNPR along with Weiss and Neptune left, leaving Ash, Blake, Sun and Yang to say goodbye for the night.
"She should be ready for you to start trying to work with her tomorrow. We'll have to keep miss Schnee away though, as much as that probably will anger her, its for the best." Ash explained, to which the three nodded.
"Do you think if we were to try and reintroduce Weiss slowly, that Ruby would eventually warm up to her again?" Yang asked, worried for her teammate.
"While it has a slight possibility of working, I would rather not risk it. And don't even try to go to your headmaster, until she can be deemed fit for classes again, I'm the one who has authority over her." Ash explained with a stern voice.
"Noted. I would rather not try it anyways." Blake said with a scowl.
"Forgive me for asking, but what is your relation with miss Rose other than her teammate? There seems to be something there, but I can't really tell." Ash asked politely, throwing Blake off guard.
"She is my girlfriend." Was all Blake said before turning on her heel and leaving.
"Well then. I think I may have made her angry. Could you two please tell her I meant nothing rude towards her? I was only curious as to why she was so hostile towards the thought of miss Schnee being in there." Ash asked the two blond's.
"Sure. Though I don't think she'll take it seriously. Let her be with Ruby and she might forgive you." Yang answered as her and Sun turned around to catch up with Blake.
"He seems like a pompous asshole sometimes, don't you think?" Sun asked, referring to Ash.
"His ego probably went through the roof when he first cured someone. I don't really care. As soon as Ruby is better, he will be gone and we will have my little sister back." Yang replied, not sounding pleased at all. The two had stopped by the food hall to see if any of their friends were there, but found none of them. Backtracking to team RWBY's dorm room, they were met with the sound of silence.
"Alright, either someone is dead or sleeping, wanna take bets?" Yang asked jokingly.
"Nah, you would win. I can't tell if Blake or Weiss would try to kill each other." Sun replied simply. Opening the door, the duo was surprised by the sight they saw.
Neptune was nowhere to be seen, Weiss was asleep at the desk, and Blake was hanging off of Ruby's bunk slightly with her red cloak wrapped around her. Yang and Sun both tried to suppress a giggle at their sleeping positions, and just barely managed.
"Alright, I got ice queen if you can at least push Blake further onto the bed." Yang said as she gently lifted the heiress out of the chair and into her bed. Sun meanwhile knew that he had to be careful with Blake, unless he wanted to end up dead. Gently nudging her back into the bed, Sun made sure she had her head on a pillow.
"Alright, well, g'night Sun, I'll see you tomorrow. And thanks for being there, it means a lot to me." Yang quietly said as she led Sun to the door.
"Hey, anytime. Us faunus have to watch out for each other. Your sister will pull through Yang, trust me." Sun replied as he walked back toward his own room. Yang shut the door and began getting dressed for bed. While doing so, her thoughts began to drift towards Blake and Ruby's relationship.
'I know they haven't had much of a chance to do anything, but I can't think of anyone better for Rubes. Maybe the Ice queen and I can pull something together for them' Yang thought to herself with a smile. With that final thought, Yang hopped into bed and quickly dozed off.
AN/ And done! So how do you guys feel about me now? Still hate me, love me again? Anyways, sorry for the delay, hopefully towards the end of the semester I can do some writing while at school but currently im behind in one of my two online classes (because Google translate is shit) and I can't afford to fail otherwise I lose the ability to write stuff for you guys, and I would rather have the ability to write and have little time to do so than not be able to write for you guys at all, so please stay with me. Until next time, have a great day!
