"HEY RUBY!" Jaune called her as she walked along the sidewalk of the Academy Grounds. Ruby looked back to see the swordsman running after her, catching up and bending over to catch his breath, "So, Ms. Rose, we have literally not talked in what, two weeks?"
Ruby shrugged and smiled, "Sorry Jaune. You know with the semester coming to an end and all the teachers have these insane tests, and Weiss is really demanding, I find it hard to even find time for myself."
Jaune shrugged, "I know what you mean. Except for the girlfriend part. I can't relate to that at the moment," Ruby giggled at his joke, "But how have you been, Ruby? And how has Weiss been?"
Ruby smiled, looking up to the clouds, "Oh you know, same old same old. I wake up, go to class, and then go back to bed," she looked towards the Beacon dorms were, "Weiss is... oh god, Jaune, Weiss is so awesome."
Jaune laughed slightly, "Oh really? Dragging you to the library is awesome?"
Ruby giggled with the swordsman, "Ok besides that, everything else about Weiss is awesome. And, oh why Jaune are you asking me this. I can't put my emotions into words!"
"ALL I ASKED WAS HOW WEISS WAS!"
"I KNOW! BUT I CAN'T EXPLAIN THAT EITHER!"
"HEY! THERE ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO SLEEP!" Ruby and Jaune looked up at Mercury thrusting his fist in the air.
Ruby and Jaune kept their heads down and fled from their embarrassment, as Mercury retreated back into his dorm to sleep.
"So what are you planning for the weekend, Ruby?" Jaune asked.
Ruby turned around, shushing him, "It's a secret, Jaune. By order of Weiss Schnee! Or else, she won't let me have cookies for a month," Ruby felt a vibration in her pocket and looked at her scroll, "Speaking of the Ice Queen. I gotta run, Jaune!" she used her semblance to separate the distance between them, "IT WAS NICE TALKING TO YOU, JAUNE!"
Jaune laughed to himself, put his hands in his pockets and wandered back to his dorm, hoping he wouldn't encounter his pink-haired counterpart.
Weiss had sent the message to Ruby, ordering her to get her bags packed for their trip to the mysterious beach Yang and Ruby knew from their childhoods. Weiss herself had already packed well in advance before the rest of her teammates for the trip, priding herself on her diligence. She felt this gave her an edge over Ruby, and Weiss knew herself to like being in power over someone, even if that was just one person.
She loved yet also hated that Blake and Yang were immune to the way she could manipulate Ruby. Blake having lived her life suspecting everyone of stabbing her in the back, learned to look for signs of manipulation while Yang was too stubborn to ever listen to Weiss' demands.
Weiss smiled thinking about them, a small flame being born inside when the thought occurred how much closer they were all going to be. That flame traveled a little down south when she realized they were all going to be on a beach.
"Hey Weiss! How's it been hanging?" Weiss looked up to see a Cerulean Intellectual before her.
"Oh hello, Neptune," she smiled at him, "Nothing much. Studying and sleeping are my only functions."
"I get the same feeling. That and trying to keep Sun focused-
"HEY!" Weiss and Neptune looked behind them to see a small bespectacled individual carrying a romance book.
"Oh great. It's J. H. Yong," Weiss sighed, "What do you want?"
"WEISS SCHNEE AND NEPTUNE VASILIAS! WHY ARE YOU TWO HANGING OUT TOGETHER?!" he nearly screamed at them.
Neptune raised an eyebrow, "Because we're friends?"
"Just friends," Weiss interjected.
"Well of course! You too can't date! That would be horrible!" he snorted, "God, you two together would be like pairing a buff dude and a five year old! And that's terrible!"
"Are you calling her a five year old!" Neptune argued at him.
"Are you saying he's buff!?" Weiss scowled at Yong.
"Can you believe that guy? Thinking that us together would be horrible," Neptune remarked to Weiss, "Not saying I want to be with you with you, just saying."
"I understand," Weiss grinned, "It's funny, Neptune. If Ruby wasn't in the picture, I would have gone out with your in a heartbeat," Weiss walked ahead of the halberd wielder.
"Wait seriously?" Neptune asked when his thoughts finally caught up with him.
Weiss smiled to herself, thinking about them, "No," she walked away from Neptune, "Thanks for the chat Neptune!" she waved.
Neptune tilted his head in confusion, "Uh, no problem."
Yong fell out of the supply closet, "FREE ME FROM MY HUMILIATION!"
"WEISS I'M HERE!" Ruby burst through the door, "Weiss? Where are you?"
"Um, Ruby. You're here. Kinda an awkward situation," Blake caught Ruby's attention.
"Let me guess. You're half naked? I swear it's like every time we open the door, one of us is half naked! I mean, it's starting to get old!" Ruby delivered a long epic rant.
"Ruby. I'm trying to untangle a fishing line," Blake answered.
Ruby turned around and saw Blake untangling a fishing line, "Oh. Well. Sorry about that."
"I'M THE ONE THAT'S HALF NAKED!" Yang appeared dressed, if dressed was the appropriate word, in her yellow bikini.
"OH DANG DARN IT, YANG!" Ruby pouted.
"Hey, I had to order this suit five times. I'm getting the most out of it before it stops fitting in like. A week," Yang relaxed on Weiss' bed, "I'm only getting out of this once. Then this thing stays on for the rest of the weekend."
Ruby didn't know what else to add to the conversation so she turned to Blake, "So Blake? I didn't know you fished."
Blake pulled on a tight string, "When I was younger, me and," Yang exchanged glances with Blake, nodding to her, "My mentor, would go and fish every now and then. It was funny, because he hated fish," she tried untying the knot one last time before cutting it with Gambol Shroud, "WHY IS THIS SUCH A PAIN!?" Blake took a deep breath and looked at the untangled string in her case, "At least we have enough string to last a while."
Weiss walked through the door, "WEISS! YOU SAID YOU WERE WAITING FOR ME!" Ruby exasperated.
"I got sidetracked," Weiss answered, "Now. Are we all ready?"
"I got the clothes on my back and my Ember Celica!" Yang stood up clutching her fists.
"I have mine and Yang's clothes packed in my bag. Along with all the fishing gear we need. And also the stuff to cook it with," Blake noted off her list.
"And I have all of our sleeping bags!" Ruby cheered.
"Wait, bags? You don't have a tent?!" Weiss demanded.
"Pfft! Who needs a tent. Weiss it's the beach. Just imagine it! The stars! That's the only tent we'll need!" Ruby explained.
Weiss scowled at her girlfriend, "We're picking up a tent on the way there."
"Weiss, we put it to a vote. We wanted to go without a tent," Blake explained.
"Besides, it's only two days. We aren't going to be gone that long," Yang appealed to Weiss.
Weiss sighed and relented, "Fine! Let's just go! Right now!" Weiss looked at her empty bag, "Just let me pack."
A/N Hey guys. I just want to say, sorry this chapter took so long to write. November really got away from me. It feels like it's only the second week of November. Anyways, I probably should stop promising that the chapters will come soon, I'll just jinx it.
Is it wrong that I want to take a small break from updating RFB? I find that if I focus my attention on one story, the product begins to suffer.
Don't worry, the next chapter there will be boobs.
And my YouTube channel is going to have boobs in it. I'm going to upload a review of Onechanbara Z2 Chaos relatively soon. Again, this could mean I upload it in ten years.
This is turning into a long A/N but would you guys be interested in this fic idea I have? I want to write a Greek Fire and Nuts and Dolts fanfiction, and perhaps even a Milk and Cookies fanfic. I've been falling in love with Ruby x Pyrrha lately. They're so freakin adorable.
I'm also interested in turning Waiting to be Chosen into a series about Smash rejects. I think that would be interesting.
I'm turning this into a blog but I've also been finding myself back on the Bloodborne horse because of the expansion. Don't expect a review of the Old Hunters, but maybe a Thoughts On video.
Anyways, thanks for reading my story guys, and keeping up with my bullshit. I love all of you. If you're reading this, I hope you have a good day, and if not. Then I hope it improves.
