Chapter 23

Dinner with a show!

The holidays... had not gotten off to a good start for one Jaune Arc. No sir!

Then again, the week leading up to the holidays hadn't exactly been the best either...

With his sisters finding out what he and Neo had... gotten up to the night of her confession, he had to fight off the gigantic smile that wanted to spill across his face at what had happened-and not just what they'd done! Even if that had been fun... it was how much Neo trusted him... it was how much she was willing to tell him about the truth of her...

It still made him smile a million watt smile now.

But... yeah, back to his sisters, they had not really spoken to him since that moment. Even Vert had gone all blushy whenever she saw him, immediately clamming up and power walking off in the other direction as fast as her legs could carry her.

Saphron had tried to talk to him a few days after it had happened, but had immediately been dragged off by Rouge who took one look at him, then at Neo, and looked just about ready to pass out. It was weird... she'd kept smiling at him whenever he at least got to see her... it was a proud smile... and that honestly made it harder to look at her...

That had put a damper on the week, he was just thankful that when his mom had asked them why they looked so red when she had begged for them to take a family photo in front of the Beacon fountain, his sisters had mercifully just said he and Neo had pulled a prank on them.

Hah... he wished it was a prank.

Then again, he kinda knew his mom guessed that wasn't the whole truth from how she'd winked at him... ah crud... she knew...

Then, there had been the fact that entire school now either treated him like a god, hated him or... well... he had been having to stop Neo from impaling more than a few people that had begged to feel up his stomach...

Luckily she was too busy dealing with the fact she was now in a school where she was expected to do stuff that didn't involve beating up girls and the occasional guy who tried to touch him up.

She had taken to it like a fish to water, Professor Port had apparently retreated to his 'bunker' to hide from something so terrible it made the usually blustering professor scream like a little girl the second he came near their group, so instead a fourth year had taken over and he had been able to... well, actually teach them something. Plus, he hadn't released a Grimm on them in the form of a flock of nevermore from a hatch in the ceiling or a creep in the floorboards underneath their desks.

That was a plus in anyone's books.

Professor (Doctor!) Oobleck, was someone Neo apparently liked to listen to, being mute meant that she was able to keep up with fast talking people easier than most according to her. She was actually helping him with his notes for the class, playing teacher for all intents and purposes... gods did he wish Neo hadn't decided to try out an outfit similar to Miss Goodwitch's... he could have sworn she knew what she was doing to him with that tight skirt... but this was Neo, his innocent and totally unaware of what she did to him a lot of the time, girlfriend!

Yeah... she uh... what was he talking about?

Oh! His life being hell yeah...

Anyways, Neo's favourite teacher by far was professor Peach, the illusive professor actually showing up more and more to class these days ever since Neo had managed to make a bomb out of a pinch of lightning and fired dust, a fork and a half eaten apple... yeah, that did kinda scare him a little.

Suffice to say, the week for Neo had been great, and he honestly was happy for her... he just kinda wished that, that happiness transferred to him a little.

If it wasn't his sisters avoiding him like the plague, death threats and evil stares from guys who were terrified he was somehow after their girlfriends then it was most definitely having to stop his mom killing Headmaster Ozpin whenever she found out some other danger he had faced under the Headmasters' watch...

But you know the one thing that annoyed him more than anything else?

Something most people he imagined could forgive him for being a little pissed off about it... it had been going on all week for gods' sake!

Any time. Any time, he and Neo wanted some... alone time, whether it be in the dorm room, a 'supposedly' empty hallway or the one time Neo had been feeling pretty brave and drug him into a classroom they were interrupted!

It wasn't like that was the only thing they got up to, he and Neo really enjoyed gaming together, baking, watching movies, sparing (even if it was more Neo smacking him around until she either passed out from exhaustion or she knocked his aura down into the red finally) and had even managed what could be a called a date yesterday! Even... if it was more of them walking through the gardens where Ruby had suddenly appeared besides Nora with a picnic hamper and shouted "enjoy your food!" before running off giggling... he'd have to go and get those two something nice.

Whether if was Yang and Blake deciding that classroom looked perfect for their own alone time, his mom paying a surprise visit to their dorm room or... Miss Goodwitch walking down the hallway right as his hands found Neo's glorious butt once again...

It kept happening...

But, enough with his kinda sucky love life for now...

The holidays were here, and he and Neo were spending their first night of it with his family… even if the awkward atmosphere between them and his sisters was still there. Terra was clearly clued in, giving Saphron accusatory looks while his sister... smiled innocently? Why... did that worry him more?

Still, she had gotten a liking for Neo when his girlfriend had seen her pregnant belly and immediately produced a tub of ice-cream that hadbeen devoured in the blink of an eye.

Her reaction when Terra had asked if she wanted to feel the baby kick... the way her eyes had gone wide when Terra had took her hand... the sound of her breath catching as fingers touched skin, the way she gasped, the complete and utter awe on her face as he and Terra smiled serenely at her...

He had never seen the colour that formed in her eyes, so incredible and beautiful... and so completely indescribable, it was something he would remember for the rest of his life. Then Neo had turned to him with those indescribable eyes and there, a smile etched upon her features.

They had gone to a nice little restaurant in the fancier part of Vale where they specialised in a mix of Valean and Vacuan foods and drinks. He'd gone with a burger topped with spices and pickles from Vacuo and sweet potato fries from Vale. Neo had gone with a seafood platter; crabs legs, muscles and some… weird tentacle looking thing he had to assume came from Vacuo because if that thing lived in Vale's waters he was never going near the lakes ever again. He knew it had to taste good though, going off of how Neo was happily cutting up one of them and… yep. He was scarred for life as as he slurped it up like spaghetti.

Luckily, his parents were too occupied to notice it, asking him and Neo questions about their relationship that he was honestly glad for. The last thing he needed was one of his sisters blurting out what they'd seen… not that he thought his parents would be angry with them, far from it… and that was the bad thing.

See, his dad would be the better one to deal with, more than likely just laughing at him gently and patting back. Maybe the occasional 'that's mah boy!'… then there was his mother… oh gods his mother…

After Saphron's kinda awkward coming out tale, she had literally offered to take her to an 'adult shop' to pick out the best little toys for her and Terra… good gods she actually tried to offer her tips from her 'experimental' days!

What would he do if she found out that he and Neo were beginning to… explore their desires?

The horror… the horror…

"So, son, what was your and Neo's first date like?" ah… such an innocent question from his dad… which was why he imagined they were so confused when he and Neo turned to each other with pale faces.

"Uh… well, I uh…" he was stuttering, how the heck was he not supposed to!? How did you go and casually saw "Oh, you know that attack on the White Fang? The one where I got shot at and nearly killed? Yeah… that was the night me and Neo were having our first date, but hey! The day part of it was pretty great!" Seriously! How could he just go… and… Oh. he… he could just come out and say it. Ah crud…

His family, Neo and a good portion of the restaurant were looking at him with wide eyes, cutlery clattering down upon their plates as silence reigned… he gulped… he felt to make sure he hadn't died of embarrassment and… waited for someone to speak to make this evil silence go away.

"Oh!" Thank the gods for his mother… "Well, I can certainly say that went better than mine and your dads' first date! I mean, I blew up an entire part of town chasing after a girl who dared to touch your dads' butt! Ah… good times!" his mother said cheerily, pretty red dress twinkling in the dimmed lights as his dad smiled serenely while everyone else in the restaurant suddenly found something else to do. Yeah… he didn't blame them, to anyone who wasn't family, his mom was… terrifying at times.

He breathed a sigh of relief in any case, leave it to his mom to have a story more insane than his own. Though, now that he thought about it, it really shouldn't have considering just who his mom was.

He felt a hand touch his and turned to find Neo smiling sweetly at him, even if her face was still pretty red.

She was wearing a beautiful dress, crème in colour with little pink and brown flowers stitched into the sides of her dress that flowed up until they spilled into a threaded bouquet sprawled across her chest. It split at her thigh, showing off her supple skin that had made his nose spurt a little blood at the sight of her when she'd left the bathroom of their dorm room.

She had asked him if he thought she would look better with gold eyes or something to make her look prettier for his family, he guessed she hadn't been expecting him to tell her that she didn't need to change her eyes, she looked beautiful the way she was seeing as those same eyes had promptly flashed a billion colours before she passed out onto his bed with the biggest grin on her lips.

Her hair was set in a beautiful braid with the pink and brown flowing in and out of each other seamlessly, hints of white shining through that he found his fingers were gently running through it, he tried to stop but he found he couldn't… he was lost in her rosy eyes, the way they were locked onto his as she leaned into his touch…

"Thanks" he whispered, Neo's smile growing just a little as she leaned up to kiss him, Jaune happily accepting her affection, thankful that the fish didn't smell seeing as he'd forgotten that there was garlic in that food, instead all he'd tasted was that vanilla with a hint of chocolate and strawberry that brought such good memories to him... hah... how had he ever gotten so lucky?

"I think your food is getting cold, you two" His dad interrupted, Jaune snapping to attention to find his entire family smiling ear to ear at him and Neo, yep, even his sisters because of course they picked now to be able to look him in the eye. Where the heck had his mom gotten a camera from!? "Heh, don't you worry, your mom does that to me all the time"

"U-Uh… Yeah… um… So! You… wanted to know about mine and Neo's first date?... before all the guns and stuff" he was sure Neo would appreciate the change in conversation, their first date hadn't exactly been what most people would consider normal, but he still treasured the parts before the dock incident with every fibre of his being just like Neo clearly did.

His family readily agreed, listening intently as he recounted the tale that was their first date, Neo 's multiple dress changes, their fun time getting to know each other better, the battle for dominance in the arcade and... when they'd viewed the fireworks... all the while his parents had been grinning ear to ear, his mom resting her head on his dads shoulder and his sisters actually picked up the nerves to look at him with shy little smiles that he and Neo returned.

"So, Neo, are you helping my boy get better with fighting? I heard about your uh… your fight with my little Rouge here" aaaaaand there went those smiles. Gods darnit…

Neo, instead of answering, turned an interesting shade of red and proceeded to turn herself invisible with her Semblance, leaving only her burning red cheeks visible.

"Dad!" he moaned, embarrassed beyond belief which his sisters clearly agreed with from the groans that left their lips. A glimpse from between his fingers showed Vee was wobbling in her seat, looking ready to pass out once again.

"Oh, don't you worry, sweetie!" His mom grinned, patting his back a little too hard so he nearly face planted what was left of his burger. "Me and your dad saw way worse in our time at Beacon! We even did a few of thi-"

"Neo is helping me fight! Yep! She is helping me fight real good! Haha! Let's keep talking about stuff that isn't going to mentally scar us., huh?" Jaune cut in, eyes wide with a trickle of sweat running down the side of his face.

"Heh, sorry son, tell you what, why don't you tell us what you and Neo got up to after that? I bet you two went and enjoyed some time with your friends, right? Oh, no! I bet you two went and did some combat training, Neo here showing you some grapples you could use on others? Son? What's wrong? Why are you hitting your head off the table?"

"Oh, he and Neo got up to some real good training~"

"STOP TALKING, VERT!" he yelped, turning to face her with a scowl on his face… to find her head was buried in her hands, muttering 'Where did my innocent bunny go?' over and over again. "Huh?" in confusion, he turned to Midi and Minuit, them being his next targets for being the next ones on his list of culprits... but nope, they were clutching at each other with horrified looks on their faces... so... who had?

"Really, Saphron? I didn't think you would have wanted to go and see them train?" his dad asked, Jaune sending a pleading look to his sister, begging her to not do what he thought she was about to do! Saphron smiled at him, no mercy behind those eyes, only a pure evil the likes of which he had never seen.

"Oh, I watched a recording, tell you what, Neo had him in the first half but in the second? Jaune got her in a really good grapple on her, and he dominated her! My big baby bro got a really good grip on this little viper and beat her!" she grinned happily, pride beaming out of her even as Jaune immediately began praying to the brother gods to strike her down with holy lightning!

"Really now? Well done my boy!" Jaune laughed nervously, tugging at his collar all the while keeping Neo from vaulting the table to strangle his evil, evil sister. What had he done to deserve this!? He had given her a child! Didn't that count f-... oh, oh you're gonna regret doing this to me, Saph!

"Hey, let's not just talk about me and Neo here! I mean, you and Terra know some pretty good wrestling moves yourselves!" he forced down the grin that wanted to form oh so badly as Saphron and, as a casualty of war, Terra choked on their food for a second before they both snapped to him with wide eyes.

He caught the look Neo was sending him, the amount of sheer excitement was plain to see as she copied his innocent smile, their gazes settling on the paling couple.

"You two? I never would have thought you would be into fighting" his dad noted with a frown, his mom giggling into her hand with a sly nudge of her elbow into Saphron's, even if his sister was too busy doing her best impression of a ghost to notice it.

"Oh yeah, I only ever saw them doing it once, but Saph was getting her butt whooped good and proper" He tried to feel guilty about the betrayal Terra was staring at him with, but two things kept him from it. The first was that every war had their casualties and war… war never changes. The second… he still hadn't really forgiven her for not telling him she and Saph were busy that night, leading to him walking in on his sister tied to the bed and covered in… leather…

He suppressed the shudder to instead grin evilly as Terra and Saphron began to hastily put together a lie good enough to fool his dad. All the while, Neo was giddily gripping his hand and showing just how much she appreciated how he'd turned the tables on Saph so easily.

Well, Neo guessed she knew where Mr Abs had gotten his oblivious trait from, she giggled to herself at her joke as she watched his dad not understand just what the heck his daughter and daughter-in-law had been getting up to that night.

A tap on her arm got her attention as Mrs Arc grinned knowingly at her, Neo's humour draining as it became clear that Mr Abs' mom was nowhere near as oblivious as her husband… she nodded her head towards the bathroom where Neo followed her happily, Mrs Arc stating they were going to powder their noses… whatever the hell that meant.

"Don't you worry, dear, it's perfectly natural!" she whispered, petting her hand as she grinned. "I'm not going to make you all embarrassed by cluing him in… but I gotta admit, glad someone finally managed to make my little baby boy come out of his shell~"

I… I… uh… the words formed in her head, but Neo couldn't make them appear on her lips, barely able to keep her heart beating as Mrs Arc grinned. They entered the room, Neo noticing they were alone, which she was kinda glad for with what she knew was about to happen.

"Bleu left the video playing on her Scroll when she got back, I didn't mean to buuuuut… well, all I can say is that I'm happy you two are willing to trust each other so much…" She laughed, Neo doing the same but a hell of lot more embarrassedly for obvious reasons! She was about to say how she really did care about Mr Abs, how she'd never hurt him… when Mrs Arc turned around… and Neo felt her blood freeze.

Gone was the smile.

Gone was the chipper attitude.

Now stood in front of her was a terrifyingly calm woman whose aura made her feel a deep and primal terror, watching as her fingers twirled a butter knife in her hands.

This fear she exuded was unlike anything Neo had ever felt before, not even Cinder managed to make her knees shake as they did now.

It was how those eyes had turned from happy and carefree to dangerously cool slits that tracked her every movement.

It could have also been the way her body posture changed, the laid back and almost lazy stance now the picture of battle ready, muscles tensing and relaxing, feet spaced apart and body twisted to the side slightly...

This was not the Mrs Arc the she knew... this was the warrior she hid beneath... and Neo could tell she had no chance against her...

She leaned against the sink nearest here, Neo immediately noticing that it also blocked any and all escape from the room. "But that does mean I am also aware of what you told him that night… of what you are, Neopolitan. Of what you have done and who you are connected to"

In an instant, she shot back and threw up her Semblance on sheer instinct, her body screaming at her to run under the cover of invisibility from the terrifying woman. She was outclassed in ever regard when it came to combat with this woman. She liked to play the bubbly housewife but Neo never forgot how easily she had torn apart the school to get to Jaune. How she had made powerful Huntsman and Huntresses quiver in fear of her arrival and mere presence... that mace of hers may not have been here, but that knife was held with the skill of an assassin.

Imagine her complete and utter terror when said knife seemed to disappear from her fingers, a pressure moving just past her cheek and into the wall behind her. Her illusion shattered into oblivion, Neo left shaking to her knees as she fell against the wall at how effortlessly she had found her...

Dust fell past her cheeks, looking up she found the knife had gone through the wall up until only the very end of the handle was still visible.

She... she was going to die... right here, to this merciless monster...

"Allow me to explain my Semblance, Neo" she mused, prying a piece of tile from the wall like it was paper. "I call it 'forceful momentum'. It's quite simple but also very powerful. You see, most people assume my Semblance is super strength, for obvious reasons... but that is not it. I am incredibly strong for a Huntress, I doubt there are any without actual strength enhancement Semblances that could beat me in a strength contest. My Semblance is the ability to instantaneously increase the momentum of anything I am able to move even the tiniest amount by way of increasing the velocity and energy given to this object. Say I wanted to move a boulder, if I can get it to move even the tiniest amount under my own power, then I can send it flying with very little extra effort. The heavier the object, the greater I can increase its' momentum, it's why I were these boots wherever I go. They weigh over 200b's each, and mean I can suddenly increase my speed to that of extreme levels in an instant, adding my aura to them makes them more resistant to wear and tear which makes it an all the more viable technique... but there is a danger to it..."

She flicked the tile and Neo watched it shoot like a dart into the wall, a golden glow slowly fading from it, showing it was completely undamaged...

"If I were to use it on a person... I could very easily tear a limb off or even tear them apart on a cellular level if I concentrated hard enough… I have used it on people before… I have taken the lives of those who gave me no choice and it haunts me to this day. Let me make this clear, Neopolitan… If I think my family is in danger, any of them, I will use it without hesitation" a single tear fell down her cheek, Neo forcing herself to not feel sympathy for the woman who was about to kill her… why had she let her live long enough to enjoy this meal with her family and son? Why… why hadn't she just killed her yet?

"I will be honest when I say I knew who you were the second I saw your combat style thanks to Vert, she recorded your fight against Rouge for me, it's a very… unique one that an old… friend used to use…"

Her heart shattered in her chest as Neo understood the threat for what it was… she… she was going after her uncle… with a snarl, Neo shot to her feet and charged the one who would dare to attack her family, she didn't give a fuck who she was! No one threatened her-

She was grabbed into a hug, her clawed hand batted away in an instant… a sigh leaving her lips as Neo struggled for a minute but eventually relented into the hug that made her internally scream what the fuck!? Over and over again.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt him, or you for that matter… I'm sorry if I scared you, but I needed to get my point across. Please, dear… tell me how your uncle is?... It's been too long since I saw Roman"

She was released… even if Neo herself only slumped against the wall once again, what had happened in the last minute having left her brain doing its' very best to not explode. Gone was that terrifying woman, the smile on her lips that reminded her of warm summer evenings, her eyes flashing in sheer confusion at just what the absolute fuck was happening right here, right now.

Wh-what? Why would.. don't you wanna arrest me? she was seriously starting to think this woman was insane… either that, or she was dead and her brain was trying to come up with as nice a scene as it could while she bled out on the floor.

"Hah! You'd think so… but no, I won't for two reasons… one; while I was worried you were going to hurt my son in some way, the devotion you look at my sweet little boy with makes it clear how much you love him, oh don't you go all blushy on me! I know that look~ You're at least falling in love with my Bunny" fighting it down, Neo finally managed to stand up once again, rubbing her arm and nodding her head towards the knife and tile still embedded in the wall with a raised eyebrow in hopes of changing the conversation towards something that didn't make her blush in front of the crazy woman. "I'm not insane, young lady, my husband had me tested" the knowing smirk on her lips was not something Neo had been prepared for… neither the fact that Mrs Arc had actually needed to be tested on her sanity… then again, this was Mrs Arc…

What's… what's the second reason? She didn't know why she wasn't running away, why she wasn't already out the door and going straight to Jaune, begging him to stop his nutso mom. Instead… she tracked the woman who could have ended her life in an instant, watched as a shaky sigh left her lips and those green eyes settled on her with a mistiness shimmering over them.

"Because… I wasn't lying when I said Roman was an old friend of mine, I helped him become the warrior he is today after all, it's why I know your style so well. It's clearly been adapted for you, a smaller and more nimble fighter, but I know those flourishing moves and attacks designed to wear down your opposition. How you toy with your opponent to make them angry before you go in for the finisher… Ah, the memories of teaching him to take a left hook… I… I wish I hadn't failed him like I did…"

She wanted to ask what she meant, wanted to know just what the hell she was talking about when she said she'd failed him… but that was cut short when two women walked into the bathroom that Neo felt she remembered… for some reason she felt a distinct urge to kick the crap out of them… why the hell would she feel like this?

Then it hit her, like a tonne of freaking bricks.

"And then I was like-Wait, hey, you're the bitch who made us think a Beowulf was gonna attack us! We lost out on good eye candy 'cus of you!" The one snarled, moving forward with a threatening expression… that Neo very nearly laughed her ass off at. Seriously, her nerves were far too frayed with what had just happened to deal with this shit in any way other than with violence of the swirly variety.

"Whatever you plan on doing, I wouldn't, sweetheart" Mrs Arc interrupted with a smile just on the wrong side of scary as shit with a side of pissing yourself in the case of the girl whose hair was currently a few inches shorter thanks to Mrs Arc having flicked another tile past her neck before anyone could blink.

They backed up with frightened expressions that Neo felt were entirely fair seeing as the woman in a sparkly dress who'd just cut off their hair with a tile of all things was bearing down on them with a furious smile…

"By 'eye candy' I have to assume you're talking about my son… see, I don't take kindly to people talking about him like he's an object… and neither does his girlfriend… isn't that right, dear?"

She watched their eyes flick to her just as she was able to put on an absolutely evil grin that made the stupid pair run for their lives, shrieking about the demons in the bathroom.

She laughed like a loon, unable to believe she had managed to get those two bitches twice! Hah! Oh it was freaking perfe-!

"Heh, oh it's been too long since I got to do that"

Aaaaaand there went her laughter, freezing against the wall as the devil woman approached with a small smirk and an extended hand, eyes following each and every movement she made as the woman sighed.

"Dear, when I said I would protect my family… I did mean you as well" she took her hand and Neo was pulled into a tender hug that both confused the fuck out of her and created a warmth in her chest at the implications of her words. "Neo… When you became the girlfriend of my son, you became a part of my family. You make him happy like I have never seen, fill him with confidence and… well, you bring out the man in my son… Oh, I just love that adorable little flush of yours! Ooo! I wanna pinch your cheeks!"

Neo wanted to slap away her hands, wanted to deny she was cheek pinchingly cute!... except… except for what she had just told her…

For her entire life, it had just been uncle Roman and herself… and that had been fine! She hadn't wanted anyone else because screw everyone else!

But then had come Jaune… filing her life with love and happiness that her uncle hadn't been able to provide. She'd never known she would want romance in her life, why the hell should she when most guys who showed interest in her were utter perverts or… worse… but he was different, he was the kind of guy who made her heart skip a beat simply by being near her… made her feel wanted, needed… loved… now she knew she couldn't go without the love he gave to her…

Would… would his family become another important part of her life?

More like her uncle obviously… but… was it actually possible?

She… she found herself really wanting that to be true…

"Sweetheart… I know you can't tell me about what job you and your uncle are in at the moment, if Roman of all people is too scared to run from this person then they must be bad… But please… if it gets too dangerous, or you feel they will be a danger to Vale… then come to me or my Husband. We will keep you two safe, we will make sure this person can't hurt you. Alright?"

All she could do was nod into Mrs Arc's chest, feeling the woman sigh happily into her hair.

"Also… Promise me that you will tell Jaune one day, that you'll keep your word and tell him the whole truth. Please, I don't want my little boy to get hurt…"

She pulled her head away and nodded vehemently at her, Mrs Arc grinning happily and leading her towards the door. I… I never want to hurt him, I… I think I'm… Dammit don't make me say it… She did not pout, no matter how much the evil woman claimed she did, crossing her arms at the not at all sincere promise to not bring it up.

They returned to the table, Jaune grinning like the lovable goof that he was when he saw her, Mrs Arc winking at her cheekily and mouthing 'Grandbabies' to Grizzly when he asked what they'd been doing. Neo couldn't be bothered to blush as she rested her head on her boyfriend's shoulder, sighing happily as she finished her food. She offered a piece of octopus to Mr Abs, but he looked weirdly scared of it, politely as a guy who was acting like he was at gunpoint refusing to eat it.

She managed to get some nice conversation out of Violette and Vert, even if whenever Neo snuggled a little closer to her boyfriend they blushed a little bit.

Soon it was time for dessert and Neo simply hated that she couldn't decide! What the hell was she supposed to do!? There were so many deserts to try! And too freaking many of them included ice-cream!

"Neo?" Came the voice of her saviour, turning to him in a pleading way as she held up the menu with a despairing look. "Oh… Ooo… Yeah, I see the problem… hrmm… Oh! I know, why don't you get a big bowl of whatever ice-cream you want the most, and then I can get a dessert we both like the sound of and then we can share!"

Eyes wide, she stared at her amazing, heroic saviour in reverence… he… he would really do that?

She was kissing him before even she knew she was doing it, grinning happily against his lips while he pushed into the kiss with a smile of his own.

"Trying to eat here!" Minuit groaned, Neo wiggling her eyebrows evilly when Mrs Arc elbowed her side and told her to not get in the way of love!

She watched her boyfriend scan the page with a masters gaze, his fingers landing on the occasional piece before moving on with a shake of his head… until it didn't move, and he looked back up at her with a victorious grin.

"Neo? Would you like a cream pie?"

"WHAT!?" came a sudden and terrifying screech from several directions, Neo and her boyfriend turning to find his sisters, minus Saphron who was grinning weirdly again, all staring at them in utter and complete horror, faces red and not blinking.

"Uh… What? I wanna give Neo a good time tonight and a cream pie sounds good…" She nodded confusedly, making her own thoughts known.

Yeah! He wants to give me a cream pie and I never got to have one before… what's so wrong with that?

"Ever-"

"NOTHING! Nothing all, dear!" Mrs Arc cut in with a smile a mile wide, Grizzly was looking as confused as them and asking what was so wrong with her boyfriend supplying her with a delicious cream pie! He was going to do the same for him and Mrs Arc to share after all, apparently! Mrs Arc blushed a little, but continued happily, even as her daughters looked at their dad like he was a monster for some reason. "You give her all the pies she wants, Jaune!"

"Mom!" came more angry yells, Neo rolling her eyes as the Arc matriarch turned to them with a scowl on her lips, whispering how she wasn't getting any younger and wanted something she missed as she and Mr Abs began to choose between the different types of cream pies they offered.

"Ooo! They have banana cream pies!"

"Oh yeah, Jaune, get Neo that one! Cream pies can't happen without a good banana!" Saphron pointed put helpfully, Neo smiling appreciatively as she agreed. She'd never really tried stuff with banana in before but not that she was with Jaune she had a feeling she'd be trying bananas a lot more! "Oh! Jaune, look! The pie looks pretty big in the picture, do you think Neo could handle it all?"

"Psh! Neo can handle it, trust me, she's a trooper when it come to all things cream" a lady next to them flicked out a fan and waved it furiously in her face, her husband laughing at some joke she hadn't heard. Huh, was it really that warm in here? She didn't think it was too hot…

"Besides, you haven't seen how much she can fit in her mouth, cheeky thing stole and ate my entire sausage whole at breakfast today!" he remarked, Neo elbowing his side with an embarrassed flush, it looked tasty! Sue her!

Something crashed behind her and she turned to see two red faced teenage waiters were busy picking up some plates they'd dropped.

A squeak of chair legs brought her back to the table to a sight that mildly worried her.

… Uh… are they gonna be okay? She asked as the other six Arc sisters turned pale and bolted to the bathroom.

"Yep! Guess bananas aren't for them… Well, it makes sense for me, always been more of a peach person, but oh well!"

Huh, ironic since she wasn't a fan of peaches… meh, oh well!

Jaune sighed happily as he and Neo made their way back to their dorm room after saying goodnight to his family, his mom telling him to give Neo more pies in future, to which he happily agreed. Neo had loved it, munching away happily with him, especially when he fed her a piece of banana that had come on top of it.

The night had been perfect, he honestly thought that it had… which was why, as he began to take off his shirt for bed… he looked at a shuffling Neo confusedly.

"Neo? What's wrong?"

N-Nothing! It's just… umm… Well, do you notice something? Something… missing?

In confusion, he looked around at the room not really getting what she meant.

It looked exactly the same as usual, Nora's bed a mess of clothes and teddy bears. There was a not-at-all obvious one that looked a lot like a certain Ninja… the remnants of what he thought was lipstick around the stitched mouth.

Ren's was a much more neat thing, literally not a crease to be found, even if he did notice the picture of Nora that Ren thought he didn't know about, hidden underneath his mattress. It was of her sitting on a window ledge with a small smile on her lips and the sun hitting her just right… 'I don't see her that way' my foot!

Pyrrha's bed was… honestly not what her masses of fan would probably expect… It was… it was a monstrous mess of pillows and a quilt so thick he honestly thought he'd be unable to lift it if he went under it. Next to it was a bin, nearly overflowing with empty wrappers of many different brands of chocolate from the common knock off brands to stuff he imagined cost more than his armour….

What was so… so…

Then it clicked.

The beds…

They were… they were…

"Empty…" he whispered, not getting another word out as a rosy eyed Neo pounced on him, both of them giggling as his hands clamped down on the glorious ass he had missed so much!

He pulled at her clothes, finding the zipper and looking her in the eye to make sure, he needed to see and feel the skin that her dress hid from him.

She chose to nibble on his neck in reply, wrapping her legs around his waist and pulling him all the closer...

The sound of the zipper was drowned out by his lips capturing hers, tongues battling as he walked over to the wall and pressed her into it... he'd missed this... this feeling of ecstasy he only got with her when they were like this... sex... was not something they were ready for, but as he placed a hand on her newly exposed bra and felt her moan into his mouth as he gently pinched the nipple that hardened underneath... he felt there was other stuff they could do.

*BOOM!*

"Hey ya, Jaune! We're ba-oh! Guys!? Let's come back later! Jaune and Neo are having sex!... I SAID THEY'RE HAVING SEX! Oh yeah, tops off and all! Bye Jaune and Neo! Use protection!"

*SLAM*
