After witnessing what she well…witnessed last night, Ruby Rose decided she needed to find help to control these feelings she had for Jaune, if not for her sake then at least for the sake of her sister's happiness. But she couldn't get the image out of her head, the image of her and Jaune making love, and how much Jaune must love her sisters curvaceous body over her…well, petite form.

So how did she decide to handle this. By letting it all out to her friend Nora Valkyrie.

Nora was an enthusiastic, all over the place powerhouse of a woman whom Ruby had known since kindergarten when she would hit things with a toy hammer for fun. As they grew up they became close friends and Ruby disclosed most of her secrets to her, well except for this one.

So when she arrived at Nora's and her boyfriend Lie Ren's apartment, she was greeted with an enthusiastic hug and pulled inside and plopped on the couch with Nora standing in front of her with a gleeful expression.

"So what's up Rubes?" she asked as she looked at her friend with big round eyes of curiosity.

"Well uhm you see Nora," Ruby started, rubbing her shoulder in embarrassment about what she was going to tell her friend "I sort of have this crush on a guy and.."

"Say no more Rubes, we are going to make it happen! First we will need a lot of rope to real him in and…"

"No!" Ruby shouted quickly "not that and it's a bit more complicated because well…he is sort of dating someone else and…"

"So you need someone out of the way hmmm. Well in that case we definitely need a lot of rope and some cupcakes to lure the target in."

Ruby sighed in response, she loved Nora she really did but even she could admit that the thunder cracker of a woman could be a little….she wouldn't say extreme but certainly eccentric to put it mildly.

"Nora it's Jaune, the guy my sister is dating" Ruby finally yelled out.

This made Nora stop and look at her friend with a curious expression, letting those words settle in. "Oh….," Nora said "so that explains why you're so conflicted."

"Yeah," Ruby admitted holding her head down in shame "I don't know what to do. He is so sweet and so funny and I know I can't get in the way of Yang's happiness but….I don't know what to do."

Nora placed her hand on Ruby's shoulder in support.

"Don't worry Rubes I know a way we can help you out of this situation" Nora said smiling.

Ruby looked up at her "you do?"

"Yes sir I have the perfect way!" Nora said as she stood up triumphantly "we are going to give you a makeover like no other so he will fall for you hook, line and sinker."

"What!" Ruby exclaimed in shock "Nora I can't do that, I can't hit on Yang's boyfriend!"

"Oh I never mentioned hitting on him, we are going to make him fall for you," Nora said winking "plus I still want some payback on Yang for flirting with Ren."

Lie Ren, who was sitting a few feet away, silently reading a book in his favorite chair looked up and said "Nora darling, she only asked me if she could borrow a pencil."

"I know what I saw!" Nora pointed out accusingly before turning back to Ruby "so what do you say Rubes? We gonna do this?"

"I don't know Nora, don't you think that's going a bit overboard" Ruby responded.

Nora pondered that question for a while until shouting out "nah not at all! Now let's go!" she said before pulling Ruby by the arm, making the silver eyed girl shriek in surprise as she was pulled away by her friend.


About an hour later Ruby and Nora where at the mall and Ruby was in the changing room, trying on new outfits that Nora had gotten for her.

Ruby felt odd in this setting, it wasn't that she never went out shopping with Nora before but the situation that had led to this had her head somewhat spinning. Nora's whole plan to subtly try and seduce Jaune away from Yang, or at least that's how she explained it, didn't sit so well with the young silver eyed girl. It felt so uneasy to do that to her own sister of all people. But as Nora had explained to her.

"You're not going to hit on Jaune, you're just going to subtly seduce him over time so he catches feelings for you and leaves Yang for you, that way she can't blame you if he does since you never made a move."

While Nora thought her plan was full proof, it was easy for Ruby, or anyone really to see the inherent flaw in it. That flaw being that Ruby Rose had the seduction skills of a wet blanket.

Ruby was barely confident in herself to begin with and this task of seducing Jaune that Nora had envisioned in her head was to her, nigh insurmountable. Nevertheless when Nora plans something, she persists. And as such Ruby was here, trying on new outfits that her friend picked out for her.

Ruby stepped out of the changing room, wearing a red strapless dress that Nora had picked out for her, the enthusiastic girl lit up as she saw her friend "oh my gosh Ruby you look beautiful look at you!"

The silver eyed girl turned to the mirror next to her. Nora was right the dress color was exactly her style but to Ruby it just felt weird. She was never really a dress girl, more comfy big sweaters and T-Shirts then actual dresses.

"I don't know Nora, it just feels so…not me.." Ruby admitted.

"Well if you want that man you're going to have to step out of your comfort zone Rubes. Here try this?" Nora threw her another article of clothing and Ruby sighed and stepped back into the dressing room.

The next outfit her friend picked out was a black dress, this time with straps and a red lining across front, it reached to her ankles, which felt a bit better for Ruby. She had to give Nora credit for keeping her favorite colors in mind. When Ruby stepped out and looked in the mirror she was surprised about how well it fit her figure.

"Yes that one is perfect!" Nora almost screeched into her ears.

"I'm like right next to you" Ruby grunted in response.

"I think it's perfect for you, we just need to do something with your hair, maybe add a good hat with it and some small accessories and he won't be able to resist you."

All the things Nora said made Ruby feel like she had this planned out for a long time and she was just waiting for the opportunity to doll her up and make her look even more pretty.

"I like it Nora but…I don't know it just feels so weird to see myself like this."

Nora smiled and hugged Ruby from behind "I understand, confidence isn't built in a day Rubes, it took me a long time to build it as well. But I'll get you there, and I know just how to do it."

With that Nora sped off with the subtlety of a freight train and returned in a minute later, handing something to Ruby that shocked her.

"I'm not putting this on!" Ruby said handing the item back to Nora, who refused to take it back.

"You want that man or not?" she responded.

"Yeah but…"

"Then no buts…go inside and put it on" Nora said pointing to the dressing room.

Ruby groaned in response and did what she was told, returning back to the dressing room as she changed into what Nora gave her. As she looked into the mirror installed inside the room, a spine chilled over her body as she observed herself.

She was actually wearing lingerie. Black and red panties and matching bra with a small crescent moon symbol on either sides of the cups.

Ruby felt she was looking at a completely different person. It made her both feel a mix of uneasy and confident as she looked at herself in the mirror. She knew her breasts where nothing compared to Yang's mounds, but she did have a good firm butt at least as she turned around and saw it in the mirror.

A rush went through her as she imagined Jaune looking and seeing her in this. What would he do? Would he stare? Would he tear it off and take her then and there….

Ruby shook her head to get rid of those thoughts, biting her lip softly as she continued to observe herself in the mirror.

"Looks good right!" she heard Nora say from the other side.

Ruby sighed in content, having to acknowledge that Nora was right. "I hope you know what you're doing" she replied from inside the dressing room.
