Weiss POV

We walked downstairs and Blake finally said hello to her parents after they came home from a long day. Kali already finished with the dinner and even set the table. Either she is pretty fast in the kitchen or we spent more time upstairs than I realized.

I started packing my stuff because I didn't plan to eat here with the excuse that I have food at home. Actually, I don't have any but I really want to get home to rest after what happened today. Of course I have bread and cold cuts if I suddenly feel like eating something but I feel like the first thing I will do is to collapse on my bed.

I put down my stuff on the cabinet while I searched for my pulover. I brought one just in case and it still can be cold early in the morning and the same can be said for the nights as well. When I finally found it, I threw it on my stuff and wanted to go back to say goodbyes to the others.

I would have done that if I wouldn't have heard something that made me freeze.

"I'm actually going to stay at Weiss' place tonight." What? Did I hear that right? How come she decides things on her own?

"Oh, you two became so close. How did the idea come about?" Kali asked and what does she mean by close? We are not that close so she can stay at my place. Wait, it's my place. I decide what's going to happen. I stormed my way over there but that blabbermouth already decided to speak in my place.

"I asked her to teach me the piano and she can't really bring it here so I'm going there. She was so happy to hear it." Kali just patted her shoulder like she did something good. No! She is doing the opposite. Don't believe her. Why am I not saying anything then? I just didn't find the words.

"That sounds great. I wanted you to get into something musical so here is the opportunity." I walked there to look at that kid like I wanted to kill her. Watching her self-satisfied smile made me want to run away from this place. Until Kali looked at me and my face took a full turn. This was the most fakest expression in my life. I should get into acting, seriously.

"Thank you Weiss for making time for her to teach something useful." I can't just say that it's all a lie. And why is Blake looking at me expectantly? Do not even look at me right now.

"Yes. As her teacher, I want to give her all the knowledge I have." I said with a huge fake smile. She is not going to learn piano but rather how to behave.

"Yeah, so that's that. We're gonna go." She spoke while she already started pushing me to the door. "You can have dinner alone without me annoying you. Of course I'm not doing the same with Weiss because wait, I quote her: Blake… you are the most disciplined student I have ever seen." This kid… She doesn't know when to stop. And I'm not even sounding like that. I can't even count on my fingers how many lies she told today.

"Okay, but don't stay up late. And Blake…! Be back by tomorrow night." Ghira said, not even taking his eyes off the tv. Why are they taking this so easily? And Kali just made dinner, and we are just leaving all of a sudden. I mean, my original plan was to leave alone but it seems like Blake decided to accompany me. What is her deal anyway? Why does she want to stay at my place all of a sudden? At least I'm living alone and not with that future husband I don't even want.

We stepped into our shoes and said goodbyes but I planned to question her as soon as we were sitting in the car. I was grabbing the wheels but didn't turn on the engine yet.

"Mind telling me what was this all about?" I asked, looking out at the front window. She buckled herself up and waited for me to start the engine. I didn't. When I didn't get an answer back, I looked at her but she was just waiting. "What is it?"

"I'm going to memorise the way where you live because there is no way you will tell me." If she did all this for only this reason, I'm going to become a criminal tonight.

"So you can visit?" I have no idea why I can't just shut her up. Why am I asking further questions instead?

"Whenever I can." She still didn't look at me. What the…? Is she possessed? I'm seriously questioning her mental state.

"Great. All I need is you to appear at night…" I started the engine because I had enough of this. I drove slowly as I usually do. I'm not rushing anywhere and the least I want is an accident. I can't say I'm calm right now, thanks to that brat sitting next to me.

"So… Why did you want to come along with me?" She was so focused on the road I don't think she heard me. Oh for the love of God. We are going in a straight line. What is so hard to memorize about that? "Blake!" I shouted. Mostly my anger talking from me. She snapped her head my way.

"Oh… I just… want to learn piano."

"Yeah, okay. So what's the real reason, again?" I'm quite positive that she just wants to be with me. When does she not? She should really get off my back.

"I want to meet your father." Okay, that's not really what I expected.

"You know, I live alone." Now she looks at me like I told her I'm pregnant. Seriously, why is this such a big surprise?

"Well, if I have to choose from the two, I prefer this one." What does she mean?

"Huh?"

"This is the first time I'm sleeping over at someone. It's even better that that person is you." I was sure she was full of joy but I felt the complete opposite of that. It's not like we are going to throw a slumber party for two. I'm going to sleep and that's all. One good thing is that I don't have to wake up that early tomorrow.

"We are going to sleep and that's all."

"Whoa Weiss… We should take it slowly." I'm not sure if it's safe for anyone that she angers me when I'm the one behind the wheels. I felt my grip tighten on it as I felt myself burning in exasperation.

"If you do anything improper in my house, I'm going to kick you out."

"The only thing I'm going to do is sleep. I don't know what you're talking about." Why is she doing this with me?

"Please just… shut up."

For the rest of the drive, she did what I said for once. A little silence was all I needed. I almost crashed into something in my annoyance. We aren't that far away now.

Blake POV

We arrived at a small village and I wouldn't expect Weiss to live in a place like this. I'm sure everyone knows each other here because it's not that big. So I guess Weiss is trying to live a normal life because I'm positive that her family lives in a mansion.

We drove further in and she stopped the car in front of an average sized building. It looked cozy and I'm so happy that I can finally see where she lives. We knew each other for years but I have never once got to see that.

It was already dark and looked like everyone was staying inside as I could see the lights on through the windows. I felt warm about this place and I would gladly live here. If I could live here with Weiss that would be the best.

We were out of the car and she started going straight for the door. She must be tired. I can't say the same about myself. I'm actually hyped and feel like running a marathon. But I have to force myself to sleep because Weiss definitely doesn't need much to just fall down and sleep right there.

She was looking for her keys while I was waiting patiently behind her. When she finally managed to open the door, she walked inside and I followed. She tossed her stuff on a cabinet that was close to a big mirror so you could see yourself as soon as you stepped into the house.

It had only one floor, but that's the perfect size for a person who is living alone. The living room and the kitchen were connected so you could watch tv while making lunch or something. There was also a bathroom which was quite big. I don't know what Weiss thinks of this, but it only has one room. It would be totally fine for me if we would sleep in the same room, but I'm not sure about her.

"Are you hungry?" She asked me but I needed a moment to realize that. I was mesmerized by this house even though it wasn't anything extra. It just resembled Weiss so of course I love it.

"Only if it's not a bother that I eat your food." I said, lowering my head a bit. I may have been a bit stupid on the way here. I don't want to be a burden for her. I'm just glad I can spend more time with her. I have to make up for what I did. I left her there alone in that shop, I don't want to do that again.

"Since when do you worry about that?" She said tiredly as she had already opened the refrigerator to look for something edible. "Oh, look at that." She showed me a plastic holder. "I have tuna cream. I know you love that. It's almost like it's waited for you." I felt her mood changed completely as she finally showed some real happiness. I have no idea why this makes her bright up all of a sudden but it's a pleasure to see it.

I was eating that incredibly tasteful tuna cream with some bread and tomato as Weiss was sitting there, looking at me as I gulped everything. She said she doesn't like eating late so she decided to just sit there and watch me. This would be awkward and all but my whole attention was on that heaven I was consuming. It didn't last long and It's a shame I eat this fast, but when something is great I can't help it. I'm a fast eater anyway which I should definitely work on. I could hear her say to slow down sometimes but it only echoed deep in my head so I couldn't pay attention.

"Where did you get this?" I asked as I was looking at the designed wrapping of this delicious food. It said that it was made in Atlas. Hmm… That's pretty far away.

"I brought it from home. I visited them last weekend. I always do it once in a while. Even if sometimes I would rather stay here. Anyway, my mom shoved it into my hands as she always gives me something when I visit." I always loved hearing about Weiss' day and I couldn't be more content that it happened more these past few days.

"Are you in a good relationship with your mom?" I asked curiously.

"I am… Although, I know she is relieving her stress with a bit of alcohol when I'm not around. But when I'm there, she is always cheerful and happy to see me." I wanted to question her about her dad but for some reason I felt that would be a touchy topic. I have the feeling they are not on the best terms with each other. Especially with that whole marriage thing.

"And um…" I tried thinking about something just so we could talk more. "...Do you like… living alone?"

"Well… It gets quiet sometimes. I know a few faces around but I don't know everyone here as I'm barely at home. Now you can see how late I usually arrive. I don't really have the time and the energy to have small talks with everyone." I put down the empty box of the pâté to have my complete focus on Weiss.

"It must be nice to live so close to others. Our house is so separated from everything. I have to walk for almost half an hour just to grab something from the grocery." After this we didn't say anything, just looked at each other. It was a calm silence as I was lost in her eyes.

"Yeah… Anyway, Blake, I'm going to bed. I will pull out this couch for you so it would function as a bed. If you don't mind, I'm out of energy now to change everything so you could sleep in my room. I hope it won't trouble you." She was already standing up and started pulling out the part of the couch that would transform it to a bed. I could see her struggling a bit and it looked like it stuck inside. I jumped up from my seat and helped her. I managed to get it out as I pulled all the way. Weiss started moving to her room.

"Wait." I said as I grabbed her arm. "Can we talk… a bit more?" I couldn't see her face as I was looking down on her arm where I squeezed it. I softened my tight grip.

"I'm just going for a blanket and pillow." She said and I let go of her arm. When she confirmed that I don't have anything else to say, she started walking again.

"Oh, I don't need a blanket!" I shouted after her when I realized that.

"Are you sure?" She replied from her room. The walls blocked the sound but not for my ears.

"Pretty much." I knew I would just kick it down from myself as soon as I dream of some action. Some fighting action, not that. I always have these dreams of fighting with someone. Other than the ones with Weiss in it, which is mostly fluff stuff.

As she was searching for a pillow, which I don't know what takes so long. Maybe she hides her pillows somewhere deep down in a closet. Anyway, I noticed the piano in the corner of the living room. She did tell me once that she occasionally practices piano and she can even sing. I would love to watch that whole scene where she does the two at the same time. But just playing a lullaby for me would cause me to sleep as soon as I close my eyes.

It was a white piano with some silver lines covering it. It was beautiful just like the player of it. It was also shining which told me that Weiss treasures it so much and I can even imagine her polishing it every day.

My agape was broken with a pillow on the side of my face. It slipped down but I could grab it in time before it hit the floor. I looked at Weiss with a smirk as she gave me that hesitant look. Not that brave anymore, huh?

"Ohohohoh. That was a mistake." I said it with humor but I was threatening her with my great acting abilities. Which I didn't have much, but who cares.

"No, stay there." She said, backing away as I started walking her way slowly, already raising the pillow to throw back at her. She pushed her hands up, showing that she doesn't want me any closer.

Then I suddenly started running her way as she laughed and rushed back in her room, closing the door before I could catch her. It's so cute when she acts this childish. You see, I just made her night better. She didn't seem tired anymore.

"Weiss…" I started saying wickedly. "You know I don't want to harm you."

"Of course you do. Pillows look soft but can hit hard." I could hear her muffled voice as she acted out her scarness. I smashed the pillow to the wall so she could hear it.

"Did you hear that? They are already here and if you won't let me in I'm done for." I said desperately, almost fake crying. I'm so bad at that.

"I guess we will have to make a sacrifice." She said sadly with an obvious chuckle.

"Are you really leaving me behind?" I kept up the role play but when she opened the door it didn't seem like she was doing it anymore. Did I say something? I know I said that like it was almost real. Even myself was surprised at how well that came out.

"Actually, I don't want to. But why are you so mean all the time?" Did this just become serious?

"A-Are we still playing this game… thing…" I actually wasn't sure what's going on. Weiss is so good at acting that you can't know for sure what she is doing at the moment. I feel like what she says is really how she feels. I can't say I'm an angel to her all the time. Well, mostly never, which is a hassle. Even with my teasing I get overboard a lot of times.

"If you love me… why are you making me trouble all the time? Is this that technique that people do when they tease their crush to show their affection…? However, it turns out to have the opposite effects." I was still standing outside of the room. It's like Weiss hasn't let me in on her heart yet. Do I even have a chance?

"So… If I'm nice to you… will you fall for me?"

"That's… not how this works."

"Is this bothering you… That I… feel this way?" I try pushing it on her every time but I haven't even considered how she feels about this.

"No… It's just… I don't know how to respond. Why are you feeling this way when you know… it can't work out." I wanted to step into the room so badly, but the space between kept me from it.

"But if you… let these things go… then maybe…" I stepped forward after every word. I felt my breathing quicken the closer I got to her. The only thought that she is this close and she is not backing away makes me want to touch her. I gulped as I closed even further but it looked like she was just examining me as she was standing there like a statue.

"You are already breathing heavy…" So she was really analyzing me. Oh God. I'm such a lovesick when it comes to her. My face was already so red. For her comment I backed down a bit and hid my face with the crook of my arm. I felt so embarrassed that I look like this and she doesn't have any reaction.

"I'm sorry." I said and turned around to go to my bed but Weiss said something that caught my attention.

"I think you should go to school." I turned around slowly, making sure that I heard that right. I couldn't reply to this in any way. I was shocked that she came up with this idea. "I would still come over to help you… but you need to meet people your age." I know that's really important. I'm not really good with people and Weiss can confirm that. But I feel like I wouldn't be so close to her anymore if I would go to public school.

"I don't want—"

"You have to let this go, Blake. You have to find someone else who can give you what you want." I started walking back to her to convince her that this is a bad idea.

"No, please… I-I'll stop. I-I won't—" She wrapped her arms around my neck and she was so freaking close. I already felt something growing in my pants. My mouth was agape as I frozed down with the reddest face ever.

"With this reaction…" She looked down and saw my pants sticking out. That's it for not doing anything weird in her house. But she did this to me. "...I doubt you would manage that." She said and then let go of me, leaving me completely stuck to the ground. I thought she was initiating things but she did all this to prove a point.

I turned around in embarrassment, thinking about something weird so my boner would go down. She was so hot when she did that and she still is but I can't look at her now. I really want to, though. When I saw that my crotch is still alive and not intending to go away, I hit the wall as I got angry. Why do I have this shit? Why couldn't I be born normal?

"You can use the bathroom if you want." She said as she was still standing on the sill. I thought she was already gone now that she made me a sweating wreck by proving her point that I can't let her go.

"I— I am fine. It's already go—" I couldn't finish my lying before she cut me off.

"It's at the end of the hallway. But try to do it in a tissue, please." Why is she so unemotional? Isn't she worried about me? That this would happen in school and they would be disgusted by me. My whole school life would be just a story of how I tried to avoid bullies. I turned around.

"I can't go to school… with this…" I said, pointing at my crotch, which still hadn't decided to calm down. I closed my eyes shut because I felt Weiss staring at it. This is the third time she knows about my boner and the last two was only yesterday.

"There are compression shorts." She said, leaning to the doorframe. I was still pointing at my crotch with both of my hands but I lowered it soon after Weiss stared at it for enough time.

"No… this… What if they start groping me and I react?" I could hear her sigh loudly.

"You know, not every person is like that guy you mentioned. And girls are not like that. Of course there are exceptions, but what is the chance for that? And the guys will leave you alone if you say that you are interested in girls. People are more accepting these days. Just be confident, Blake." I started chuckling. She looked at me confused.

"You know… It's so funny that you give me advice when I'm totally erected." I started laughing but it still didn't go away. Seriously, why can't I control this…?

"Yes… it should really go away by now… Seriously, what's in your head?" Is she really asking me this with the hope of getting a normal answer? I ain't giving her that… To make this funnier, I leaned on the wall so my elbow was touching it as my hand was on the back of my head. I could already see her disinterested face.

"I think you can guess that…" I said in a deep voice and the thing that my pants were stretched out just made it ridiculous. She started walking my way. Wait, did this work? There is no way. She stopped close to me and my eyes were already popping out. She raised her hand to my face like she wanted to fondle it. Instead I felt little slaps on my face which made me raise an eyebrow.

"I didn't know school could turn you on." She said, like she was proud of me. What the fuck? She is such a tease. I grabbed her hand in return. Most precisely, her wrist as I moved it up to my cat ear and started rubbing my head into it. I know it would only cause my erection to become even harder but at this point, I don't think that would matter.

"Wrong guess. I thought you knew everything." I said as I closed my eyes to indulge in her touch. All I get back to that is a squeeze to my ears that hurt me like crazy but I think I deserved it. "Ow, ow, ow! Okay, okay… You know everything, Oh Mighty Weiss!" She finally let go and I wanted to rub it so the pain would go away but what surprised me was that Weiss did it instead of me. But this time, she was incredibly gentle.

"Shall we move this to the bedroom…?" I asked seductively after she petted my ear for awhile. She immediately pulled her hands back as she grabbed my shoulders and spun me around then pushed my back so hard I almost landed on my face.

"Just go already and deal with your hard on!" She shouted as she almost pushed me back all the way to the living room.

"How about…?" I turned around but she wasn't there anymore as I could hear the loud bang of the door after she closed it really hard. "Oh… Nevermind." I was a bit sad that I couldn't get her to do anything more but I guess that's enough. Am I really going to go to a public school? How much will I see Weiss in that case? I don't think that her plan of me going to school, just to fall in love with someone else will work. She is the one I love and that won't change. Maybe I will have better chances with her as time goes on.

I walked to the bathroom to deal with my stuff but when I pulled my pants and boxers down I could hear Weiss' voice. What? Does she want to continue?
