Chapter 25: To Rule Them All

Blake turned blood red in the face. She didn't expect Yang to be here.

"Uh... Hey, Blake?" Yang stammered.

"Hi Yang..."

"What exactly are you doing here?"

"Uhh, just looking around." Blake lied through her teeth.

Yang slipped something into her pocket.

"How convenient, so was I!" Yang said. "I'llseeyoubackatthedormbye!"

Yang quickly left the store, dropping a bag she was carrying. Blake looked in the bag and was greeted by the sight of several frilly bras, all yellow. Huh, so she did take Blake's advice, she thought.

"May I help you, Ma'am?" A man asked.

"Yes, I, uh, am looking for a ring." Blake explained.

"Ah yes, the rings begin at around 7,000..."

She left the shop with the ring and Yang's bra bag. Blake couldn't help but wonder why Yang was also at the shop. Blake hailed an airship back to Beacon. She had been going back and forth a lot lately. When she returned, Weiss was teaching Ruby how to put dust on her weapon to make it stronger. Yang was laying on the couch, playing a game on her scroll. Blake approached her and dropped the bag in front of her.

"So, bras, huh?" Blake asked.

"Hey! Where did you get this!?" Yang asked, pulling the bag away.

"You left it behind when you ran away from me earlier."

"I didn't run."

"You kind of did." Blake teased.

Yang sighed.

"Okay, I did. I think the lady at the store ripped me off though. There is no way bras should be that expensive."

"Aren't bras more expensive the bigger they are?" Blake wondered.

"Really? Since when?"

"Since forever, actually." Weiss spoke up.

"Oh shut up! You're just angry that you don't have anything going for you!"

Ruby had to hold Weiss back after that comment.

"So, Yang. Why don't you really tell me why you were really at that store?"

Yang blushed. She got up and motioned for Blake to follow her. Yang led her to the hallway, away from the ears of the rest of the team.

"I'll tell you, only if you tell me why you were there." She offered.

"No way! That wasn't part of the deal, you first!"

"No! You go!"

"How about we just say it at the same time then? Would that work for you, Blondie?"

"I don't see why not."

The two girls hesitated.

"IwastheretogetyouaringbecauseIloveyou!"
"Iwantedtogrtaringsowecouldlastforever!"

There was a silence in the air.

"Is that really true, Yang?"

"Yeah, it is. I want you and I to be together forever."

"What about Beacon? We can't just leave."

"Why would we? We could be battle buddies!"

"Battle buddies?"

"Or...you know... Wives? If that's okay?" Yang clarified, pulling her fingers through her hair.

Blake smiled.

"I don't think I would have a problem with that."

The two girls pulled out the rings they had gotten for each other, putting them on each other's hands. The two embraced each other, kissing and hugging. They had plans for their future, and it would involve a lot of planning. They knew they could manage it, even if that was the last thing on their minds.
