Prompt: Jaune and Ruby hear repeated creaking noises from Ren and Nora's room. Ruby goes to tell them off, and it definitely wasn't what she expected

A/N: A slight NSFW warning for this story. Nothing at all explicit, but there's a little that is suggestive.

Ruby crept towards the door as quietly as possible. She probably didn't need to sneak, considering how much noise was coming from the room, but she didn't want to chance getting caught right now. Not that she was doing anything wrong. Investigating loud sounds coming from her friends' room late at night made perfect sense. She had raced halfway here before slowing down when the noises went from vague sounds to something more clear. Something she recognized from that video she'd found hidden under Blake's bed that still sometimes haunted her dreams. Part of her had wanted to turn back right then, but some instinct inside her had driven her forward. After all, she knew she must be misinterpreting what she was hearing. It couldn't possibly be what she thought, and the mystery of the truth was too much to pass up. Unless it was what she thought, which she absolutely didn't want to walk in on them doing. And something she definitely, definitely didn't want them to know she'd seen them doing. So she was being as quiet as possible.

She kept moving forward, but it wasn't until she got close to the slightly cracked open door before she could make out any words. Once she could, she froze in place. "Come on, Ren. You can get it deeper." Nora said. Ren replied with a grunt of effort.

"Nora, it's so tight."

"That's why it feels so good. Okay, now slowly move back, and then we'll do it again. There you go, just like that." Nora said. Ruby could hear the pleasure in her voice. She started to very slowly inch closer, fascinated despite herself. They very loudly repeated the process again as she approached until they both gave a relieved sigh.

"Okay, time for a new position. Here, stand like this and watch me." Nora said. She heard shuffling around in the room until she was about a foot away from the door. She could have easily leaned forward to see through the crack, but she suddenly was able to stop herself. Curiosity was still burning inside her, but discomfort was rising to meet it. She realized it wasn't her place to intrude on their privacy. They were both adults and could make decisions for themselves. She wished their decisions weren't so loud, but she had a nice pair of headphones that would block out the sounds nicely. She turned to go, but as she walked away, she stepped in the wrong place and a loud creak echoed through the hall.

"Is someone out there?" Nora asked. Ruby felt herself begin to panic, and she almost sprinted away before a coherent thought forced its way through. Her and Jaune were the only other people in the house. It would be obvious one of them was the one in the hall. Better to face that now, no matter how unpleasant, then wait for an even more awkward conversation later.

"Yeah. I heard noises and wanted to make sure everything was okay."

"Of course! Come join us." Nora said. Ruby didn't particularly want to, but she knew she needed to go through with it. She only hoped they were both decent. She walked back to the room, but when she saw them a sense of relief flooded through her. Nora and Ren were both fully clothed, standing on yoga mats a few feet away from each other.

"Sorry. We didn't realize we were being loud." Ren said. Nora nodded in agreement.

"Yeah. It's just really nice to get back into our yoga routine after so long on the road. You can feel the tightness melting away. Maybe you should do it with us. Trust me, it'll be great afterward." Ruby quickly shook her head. She wasn't opposed to the idea, but it was the middle of the night. Only Nora would think that was a good time for a workout.

"No, I'm okay. You guys keep going. And don't worry about the noise. I can block it out." Ruby turned and quickly left the room before Nora could find some way to drag her into it. She closed the door behind her and walked away as the sounds resumed, shaking her head. Clearly, she should have known better. Nora was just being Nora. She went back to her room, put her headphones over her ears, and drifted off to sleep.

Meanwhile, as soon as Ruby's footsteps faded, Nora ran over to Ren, grabbed him, and tossed him onto the bed. "Think that worked?" Nora asked as she stripped out of her shirt.

"Absolutely. You're a genius, Nora." Ren said.

"Good. I don't want us to have to hold anything back." Nora shimmied out of her pants and climbed on top of him. "Are you ready, Ren?"

"Yes" Ren replied, and they finally gave in to urges they'd both hidden deep inside for years.
