A/N: Wow am I getting these out fast! I have no idea where this story is going I'm just having fun with this. Enjoy!

I don't own RWBY etc etc etc

Lunch started badly.

Weiss had always wanted to be one of those girls who spent her lunchtimes in the library. However, Cardin always wanted to make out in his car, or hand with the jocks, and she had to be the perfect girlfriend and go along with it. Not that she enjoyed it. And her grades hadn't suffered, but she still wanted to get ahead. Well, further ahead.

Today, she decided, would be the start of that. She was going to study the whole lunch hour. Right after she bought something to eat.

The café was packed, as always. She just didn't remember this many CHILDREN everywhere. Oh, wait. Freshmen.

Lunch for her meant a salad and orange juice. Maybe a cookie if she wasn't full after that. The café was full of smells of cooked food which just made her stomach turn most days. Who wanted bog-standard fish curry anyway? As she reached for a plastic container of tuna Nicoise, someone thumped her in the back. "Don't respond. Don't respond. Don't respond." She willed herself. She grabbed her salad and juice bottle, as always, and headed over to the till. Then it happened again. She whipped her head around with a death glare. Behind her stood the weirdo she was cheated on WITH. The dark-haired girl who wore nothing but white outside of school and had waaaaaaay too much eyeshadow on for her look to be school-appropriate. Melanie, was it? Or Militia? One of them. She didn't have time. "What?" she snapped.

The girl twirled her hair between her fingers. "It's just so funny how you couldn't hold onto Cardin. I mean, aren't you amazing at everything? So why would he dump you for me?"

"Melanie, I don't have time for this. Go away."

"Well," responded the other twin, "That was a weak response. Has the ice queen melted?"

"Oh look, it's the other half of the freak show. Why don't you go join a circus or something? Just leave me alone."

"Someone's touchy," said the first twin sing-songy. "Don't tell me you're heartbroken?" she mimed being sad.

Weiss turned away from them. "I said, go away."

"But we don't want to," they responded in unison. Weiss handed a $10 note to the cashier and got her change.

"Great for you, but I have things to do." She took her meal and began to walk away.

But for some reason, these two were persistent. They followed her out of the café, down the hall, into the library.

"Do you two not get bored or something?"

"Not when our toy is so much fun!"

"I'm not a toy. I'm busy."

"It's the first day, how much could you really have to do?"

"Enough to hold my interest over you two. Not that that's hard." By this point, Weiss had her nose in a big, dusty book, her salad open and her brain focussed.

The two exchanged glances. "Weiss. Put the book down." Teased one.

The other pulled it away from her.

"Hey!"

"What? You won't play with us!"

"You ever think there's a reason for that?"

"Because I stole your man?"

"BECAUSE I SAID I'M BUSY!"

"Hey Weiss!" a voice came from behind her.

She turned. "Hey, Yang. What are you doing here?"

"Blakey wanted a book or something I'm not sure. What's up?"

"I was trying to get some reading done but that's not happening, apparently."

Yang glared at the two. "Now, now ladies, are we going to have to remind you what happened back in that club? Over the summer? I hoped You learned your lessons there, but if you need a reminder…" she smiled widely.

The twins glanced at each other worriedly. "What…" "Ever." They stormed out of the library.

"Um… thanks, Yang." Weiss stood up. "I thought they'd never leave."

"You know they only do that because they can smell weakness, right?"

"And because they know where to apply pressure."

Yang chuckled. "Grab your stuff, some sit with us. Blake and my little sister should have a table by now."

"Your sister?"

"Yeah, Ruby. She's a freshman but isn't so hot at making friends, you know? So, I said she can hang with us until she finds some new friends."

"Short dark hair? Klutz? Moves way too fast?"

"You know her?"

"Sort of, I ran int-"

"WEISS!" a red blur appeared in front of them. "You're friends with Yang?"

"Sort of…"

"That's so cool! We're like a clique now, right?!"

"Rubes, calm down! You're scaring her!"

"I'm sorry!" she pulled Yang and Weiss to the table where Blake was sat, reading.

"Sup," Blake said, barely looking up from her book.

"Hey, it's Blake, right?" Weiss asked.

"That's me."

Weiss sat next to the dark-haired girl, opposite from Yang and her little sister. They all had incredibly different lunches. Ruby, for example, had a pot of strawberries and a packet of cookies. Yang was fuelling up on the fish curry- with extra hot sauce. Blake had what appeared to be a couple cans of tuna between two slices of bread, or a 'sandwich', as some may call it. Weiss pulled out her own salad, and Ruby crinkled her nose.

"How can you eat so little?"

"I'm sorry?" Weiss reopened the tub.

"It's not like a salad is really filling, is it?"

"I like it, so…"

The conversation trickled to a close. Blake continued reading. Yang was texting at an incredibly high speed. Ruby played with her food. Weiss reopened her dusty book, but found herself unable to concentrate, the twins' comments drifting around her head.

"You alright there Weiss?" Yang said.

"Huh? Yes, why?"

"You've been toying with that same leaf for the last 30 seconds."

She realised that she hadn't eaten anything while thinking. "Right. Yeah. I just… I'm not with it today."

"Everything okay?"

"Not really, but… hey, it's not really anything you should concern yourself with."

"Are you sure?" Blake piped up. "You don't know us very well, but we can keep secrets. Sometimes it's easier to talk to people who don't know you very well."

"Okay…" Weiss hesitated. "If you must know, my boyfriend of 3 years dumped me yesterday, after I let him cheat on me multiple times and forgave absolutely everything. Oh, and the bimbo he cheated on me with is insistent on rubbing it into my face. On top of that, I can't focus on anything because I'm grieving so much. So yeah, nothing's okay right now."

"Damn…" Yang bit her lip. "I don't know much about dating- I'm more a hookup kinda gal-but I hear that sucks."

"I get it." Blake said. "When I broke up with Adam-"

"Blake, I swear, say those words again and I will end you. Adam was an asshole. Weiss' ex is also an asshole. You don't stay with guys like that." Yang interrupted.

Blake glared at her. "As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted, when I broke up with Adam, it felt like the world had ended. But you need to know that you deserve better than that. He cheated on you! And you're… well, you!"

"Let's not talk about this, please…" said Ruby.

"Why? What's up, Rubes?"

"I… uh… I asked Penny out… and she rejected me…"

"You kept that quiet!" Yang yelled. "What happened?"

"Well… it was last week at Coco's party. I asked her if she wanted to go out like on a date and she said she wasn't interested."

"Damn… I'm sorry, honey."

"Yeah, that sucks Ruby." Blake added.

"Yeah, sorry to hear that." Weiss said.

"It's okay, guys. You don't have to make a big deal out of it. I mean, I'm 15. I wasn't going to find true love or whatever at 15!"

"Cardin and I started dating at 14…" Weiss muttered.

"You thought he was the one?" Blake asked sympathetically.

"It didn't seem that far off at the time. I mean, by family approved, his family approved, everyone was happy. But for him it was all for show."

"I'm sorry." Blake said.

"Why? It's not you he cheated with."

"She wouldn't let him anywhere near her," Yang joked.

"Can we change the subject, please?" Weiss asked. "What does everyone have next period?"

"Math!" Blake and Yang answered in unison.

"Gym," groaned Ruby.

Weiss let out a laugh at Ruby's response. "Surely an energetic girl like you loves gym?"

"I don't like how they control it though. I like doing my own thing, working out my own way. Strength training rather than… whatever softball is!"

They all laughed at that.
