Spending two nights away from their teams, was refreshing to say the least.
Waking up from her slumber, Weiss groggily fought the urge to go back to sleep. A pair of arms wrapped around her body, shallow breaths against her neck and a pillow to lean. She smiled at the memories that Jaune and herself had created over the past couple of nights.
Looking back down, she frowned at the sight of their clothes still on. "This was our moment to prove everyone wrong. To show that we are both capable of letting ourselves obey our animalistic urges."
Pouting, Weiss moved his arms out of the way. Feeling the cold air in their room after leaving the warmth shared between the two of them. She began her morning routine as normal, she only got halfway through letting out her hair when a pair of hands weaved through it. Tidying it up and loosening any knots that formed.
"I can handle this myself, thank you very much." Annoyed by the treatment she was receiving but did nothing to stop it.
"Calm down Weiss, I don't see you doing anything to stop it. In fact, I'm starting to think you're enjoying the treatment that a princess deserves."
"S-Stop it, don't call me a princess. My darling knight." An idea began to form in her mind and maybe she thought. She could take things further to enact her revenge. "Actually, maybe you're right. Your princess does love the feeling of your strong hands and I demand you help her prepare for the day."
"I will gladly obey my lady's command. Her humble knight is forever loyal to his lady." Moving his hands further up, they gently claw their way through the soft snowy hair.
The contact of his hands on her hair sent shivers down her spine. Mewling, she leaned back into his body, struggling to recreate the warmth they shared during the night. "Mmmmm, if this is your best attempt at pleasing your princess. Then you need to do better, this is pitiful at best."
He wasn't surprised by the sudden competitive spirit that rose up but boy, he wouldn't let her have this small victory. In fact he planned to go all the way until she succumbed under his presence.
"Pitiful? Well if your knight isn't up to your professional standard then maybe I should just let go of my hands here." Slowly disconnecting the contact between them. Jaune took pleasure in watching her face all scrunched up as she lost the advantage.
"And what are you exactly trying to do Arc? I thought that you Arcs were all about loyal but to think that my knight would openly be disobedient is unacceptable."
"Sorry what was that my princess? I couldn't hear anything over the sound of a spoiled child complaining."
Weiss bit her lower lip in frustration, what turned out to be a simple roleplaying had done a complete one eighty degree. What was supposed to be her in charge, had actually made Jaune become the dominant one.
"You're playing a very dangerous game here my knight, I should have father execute you for your traitorous actions."
Jackpot he thought to himself, the perfect opportunity had arrived as in the spur of the moment. She had turned her body so she was facing him. "Really?" Taking a step forward, he managed to make Weiss back up against it.
"If you executed your poor knight." With every step forward, he was forcing Weiss back up against the bathroom door. "Then who would warm up his princess? Who would be the one who would lay down their life for her? Who would be there to protect her honour?"
She knew that everything was an act but her body was telling her otherwise: her clothes felt damp for some reason, her breaths came out rapidly, her eyes kept darting down to his lower region.
"A-And are you saying that I should allow you a second chance? T-There is no way on Remnant that I will allow…." She couldn't help herself. Something in her snapped, as her lips crashed against his. She wanted this, no she needed this.
With nothing but the bathroom door to support their combined weight. Weiss jumped up and hooked her legs around his body, relying on his body to support her petite frame. Her arms latched around his neck as she leaned into him.
Jaune on the other hand was enjoying every single bit of the moment. One arm was caressing her soft ass while the other was cupping her left breast. They were both lost in their animalistic urges.
"Jaune wait." His lips trailed down to her neck as she moaned in delight. "W-We can't. Our teams are still awaiting our return. It's not fair if we spend the whole morning like this and I don't want a repeat of last time."
"But my lady." His kisses turned to nibbles, leaving small marks on her neck. "I see it in your eyes, those lustful desires. You want your knight to claim you, you want the world to know that your mine. Our teams should be fine for a few more minutes."
She knew that they should stop but the heat in her nether regions were telling her otherwise. His words still lingered in her mind, the chance for her knight to finally claim his well deserved prize was a dirty thought. However she would be lying to herself if she wasn't excited as well.
"Then Jaune Arc, let's make this fast and enjoyable. We both still have a long day and I don't want to spend all day recuperating in bed."
She pulled his face back up and aggressively kissed him. Using her weight, she leaned over and pushed him back against the bed. Landing with a thump, her hands explored his upper body. Feeling the muscles that had formed from his late night training, she regretted the chance that was offered back at Beacon.
She sure wasn't regretting the chance in front of her now.
Grabbing the base of his shirt, she debated whether she should rip it apart to feel those muscles of his but she managed to stop herself from going too far. "Jaune, get that shirt off you. This is a command and you better obey it."
The thought of having Jaune being submissive was an erotic sight but what she wasn't expecting, was Jaune pulling off her top. Exposing her white lace bra that she wore explicitly in case they took things further.
"Ahhhh! Jaune! I said your shirt, not mine." Covering her breast in whatever modesty she had left. She felt her cheeks burned as Jaune's eyes widened at the sight before him. "Well? Aren't you going to say anything you blunding dunce."
"Wow Weiss, they're perfect."
"They're perfect?" Lowering her hands to show off her assets. She glowed in the thought of being called perfect. Especially surrounded with someone like Yang, where most eyes would set on her.
"Of course they are, my princess is perfect and no-one is going to take her away from me." Cupping his hand on her breast. He gladly took in the sight of her half bare body in front of him. A chance to be the onlooker instead of the piece of meat being admired.
Clashing their lips again, Weiss and Jaune continued to tear each other's clothing until they were left in their underwear. With Weiss sitting in his lap, they both let their hands explore each other's body. Their urges roared at them, their arousal grew by tenfolds.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Just as Jaune was unclipping her bra, a knock at their knock interrupted them. "Just one second!" She shouted out. "J-Jaune stop it please, there is someone at the door and I think we have overstayed our welcome. Get dressed and I'll handle whoever it is at the door." Halting his predatory advances, she felt as his saliva trailed down her neck as he detached his lips from her.
Quickly putting on her pants again, not bothering with her top since they had already left whoever was waiting enough time. She carefully opened their door, after making sure that Jaune was at least decent.
"My my, when I was told by your team that you were staying in a different room. I wasn't expecting to see my sister only clothed in her bra." Winter said with a slight smile on her face.
"W-Winter!? W-What are you doing here?" Weiss asked, embarrassed that a family member was waiting outside their door for so long.
"I came here to check up on you since your disappearance from the party your combined teams hosted and since they had told me that you haven't been sleeping in your dorm. I was intrigued by what would have kept my sister away from her team. Now I see clearly for myself what had kept you for so long." Casting her eyes towards the other occupant in the room. Jaune chuckled nervously as he was met with her hard gaze.
"But to think that you would follow up on my suggestion. I must say Weiss, I am really surprised by your choice."
"W-We haven't done anything yet!" Weiss screamed out, as she pulled her sister inside their room. "Jaune and I were only spending the night away from our teams after you said that I wasn't sexually active enough with him. Ekkkk!" Clamping her hand over her mouth. Weiss couldn't believe that her mouth would go running off again.
Jaune felt as if the room had gone steamy as he coughed rapidly into his hand. Looking away from the older Schnee who had her eyebrows raised in intrigued.
"You must remember to think before you think Weiss. You let your emotions cloud your judgement too much. Besides that wasn't the reason why I came to visit."
She tilted her head to the side, wondering what the real reason for her visit was. "Why exactly have you come then?"
"First Weiss, you should put on something. I don't know how long I can handle you half naked." A yelped from her sister, told her that she had completely forgotten she was baring it out. "I actually came here for Jaune."
"Me?" Pointing to himself, oblivious to how dense he was.
"Yes Jaune, ever since your date. I wanted to know the qualities in the man my sister has chosen. Especially since she took you away for some alone time."
"W-Winter!" Blushing hard, Weiss hid her face in her hands at the expense of her sister's teasing.
"Wait, what exactly am I supposed to do then?" Defensive, it was typical to say that Jaune was slightly afraid of the older sister in the family. After having to deal with two himself, he knew the norms of the tough sister act but for one who came from an influential family. He wasn't mentally prepared for the challenges he would be facing from Winter.
"Not much, Atlas still needs it's hunters and huntresses on the field and I don't want to have Weiss carved on a warpath. Searching for her missing boyfriend." She looked over to her younger sister who was smiling nervously at the thought that Winter had correctly assumed her actions. "Nevertheless, I supposed for today we could have a heart to heart talk and light sparring to check your combat prowess. Don't worry, the General has already approved of my request for both teams to be on leave today."
"That's good, once Nora had found out about this. She would've been storming her way through all of Atlas just to make sure I was alright. Not if I was in any sort of danger." The small joke brought a giggle to both Schnees, already imagining what it'll be like.
"Well I shall be waiting outside. Please do not tally for too long, we've wasted enough precious daylight already. Oh and Weiss." Capturing the attention of her sister before she shut the door on her. "I want to speak to Jaune alone."
"Oh." Her eyes widened as the realisation kicked in. "I can probably find my team to keep me preoccupied in the meantime."
"Thank you Weiss, but you're welcome to come watch our spar with the rest of his team as well. There isn't any malicious intent at all, so you can stop panicking Weiss."
Being able to be seen through by her older sister. Weiss silently cursed herself for being careless. "It's just...I know that you approved of us dating but the thought of him being left alone with family is a frightening thought since I know father has already gotten wind of this and I'm afraid he would find some way to rip him from me."
"I know how you feel, but I'm not father. I fully understand how you feel about this boy, all I want to know if what you have told me over the past weeks is the truth. There is nothing shameful in finding out the answers for yourself." Winter said as they walked out of the room.
Nodding her head weakly, the stood in silence for a minute. Awkwardly staring at one another until a loud noise from inside diverted their attention. Inside, Jaune had somehow managed to walk into the bathroom door and tripped over in the process.
Chuckling to herself, Winter raised her eyebrows, signalling that Weiss should help her boyfriend out from his peculiar situation.
"What an interesting man Jaune Arc is." Speaking to herself as the door closed on her.
[~}
Jaune has felt more awkward than he ever did. Walking alongside Winter Schnee was something else entirely.
"Umm, do you have a destination in mind?"
"Yes but it's best for me to show you rather than tell you."
"Right right."
He had been trying multiple attempts at creating small talk but they always ended up in failure. Silently walking in the abyss, his mind started to wander through multiple scenarios where it normally ended up with Winter being disappointed in him.
"We've arrived Jaune." Her voice brought him out of his trance. Signifying that he had arrived at their mysterious destination. "It may not look like much but this place is very significant to Weiss. It was the last place where our mother was an actual mother figure to her. Ever since then, she had looked up to me as a role figure instead."
Jaune listened on as Winter recalled her tale. The scene in front of them was a scenic park bench near Atlas Academy. Providing a view overlooking the Schnee mansion in the off distance.
"model."
"Oh." He didn't know what he should say. Here he was, listening intently as Winter recounted a tale between Weiss and their mother. "So I take it that this place is a taboo for her."
"Why yes, I thought that this place would serve well for our discussion and maybe allow us to enjoy the scenery. It has been too long since I had the chance to relax with someone who wasn't in the military." Sitting on the bench, Winter watched the horizon as the city was brought to life.
Copying her movement, he sat down with her. "So...what exactly do you want to talk about?"
"Well I wish to know about you as a person Jaune Arc and yes before you ask, I've done research on your family's name during my training service."
Flustered, Jaune darted his head away to hide away the blush he gained. "W-Why don't you ask me some questions then. That will make things easier."
'Charming and an idiot. I see why Weiss had chosen him now.'
"Tell me Jaune, Weiss has told me of the type of person you used to be back at Beacon. An insufferable idiot who wouldn't take a hint, a mediocre fighter at most but a brilliant leader when needed." Each word she said, brought back memories of the constant attempts he tried to ask out Weiss. "But seeing the man in front of me. I can tell that you're not an insufferable idiot."
"Thanks I guess?" Confused by whether he should take offense or take it as a compliment. "Does that mean you're fine with me."
"Don't get me wrong Jaune, you're still leagues away from being the perfect man for Weiss, but maybe that is exactly what she needs. A man who doesn't care that he should be perfect, someone with a pure heart and can comfort her with his idiocy. I can see why Weiss is willing to spend the rest of her life with you. Be proud Jaune, it's not everyday I hear Weiss pour out her heart over someone like you." A coy smile on her face, Winter nodded once. Showing off her approval for the boy.
"Thanks for that, does that mean you're alright with me dating your sister?" He had asked as she was a difficult woman to read.
"More like I approve of your choice if you wish to marry her at any time in the near future."
Marriage, it wasn't the only time that thought had invaded his mind. The thought of seeing Weiss dressed up with a magnificent brides dress, with both of their teams respectively allocated with different roles.
"..did...Jaune?"
Shaking his head profoundly, Jaune stared back into two similar blue orbs. "Wha? What happened."
"You were daydreaming when I asked you a question but you had this happy expression on your face. Which I believe must've been a good dream for you to completely ignore me."
Embarrassed that he was so easily caught. Jaune scratched the back of his neck. To have his teammates catch him was bad enough but for it to happen when he was spending his day with Winter Schnee was even worse.
"I-I'm sorry about that, must've got distracted for a bit there."
"There is nothing to apologise for Jaune, but back onto our real purpose here. I must ask, what are your intentions for my sister?"
He paused for a minute. Winter asked him a question he had never thought to think of in the first place since they started dating. Answering carefully, he let his mind speak for him.
"I...don't know what my intentions for your sister are. I still don't understand how someone like her could fall for an insufferable idiot like me and like you said, I'm not the perfect man at all. I've cheated my way into Beacon, I wasn't that good of a fighter or listener when it came to training but, I had friends along the way who helped me through it all. Especially your sister in some retrospect. What I am trying to say is that I don't want Weiss to feel like she is all alone in her struggles. I want to be there for her when times get tough and show our love to the world together."
Looking over to Winter, he noticed how quiet she was in all of this. Not saying a single word as she just sat in total silence.
The wind howled on as a strong gust blew a few leaves towards their way. Covering his eyes with his hand, he noticed how elegant Winter looked as it only provided her bangs to flow in the air.
"You're an interesting man Jaune Arc, I am glad I got the chance to speak with you. I once told Weiss that I wasn't going to be there to save her but I'm glad that she has someone like you watching over her." The sincerely in her voice almost betrayed her thoughts of continuing on with the rest of the procedure.
"...Do you really think that I am the right person for her? Like it's Weiss we're talking about. The girl who escaped from home to return to her team against all odds, managed to escape death's clutches and most of all. She has proved that she is the strongest huntress that Remnant has to offer." He begrudgingly said to himself.
"Jaune, look at me." Winter said. "How could you say something like that when considering my sister owes you her life and so do I; for bringing her back from the dead. I solely believe that Weiss would strongly disagree with you if she heard what you had just said. She might even have slapped you for good measure."
"B-But...Sure, I couldn't handle someone so important to me dying right there and then. Not after what happened to Pyrrha." He said the last part without even thinking.
"Pyrrha? Do you perhaps mean Pyrrha Nikos? The four time regional champion?"
"Yep, the very same. Somehow she ended up partnering with me and I was oblivious to her feelings by that time. It was too late by the time she revealed to me, as she had locked me into a locker and sent it flying away." He spatted out.
Understanding dawned on Winter of why Jaune was feeling that particular to himself. He should've felt regret and bitterness but instead he sounded defeated, he was striving after a dream that forced him to cheat his way in. A dream that caused him hardship along the way and now he feels self loathing that maybe he couldn't see the amazing qualities of the man he was.
"Jaune, we can't change the past. The only thing we can do however is find the strength to keep moving on, I would've guessed that Pyrrha would've wanted you to be happy. The way I see it is this, you can keep blaming your failures for all their worth or you can march upon a new path. A path that would transform you into a much better man in the end. Somewhat similar to what you and Weiss are travelling upon." Offering a mentor's advice, Winter hoped her words would steer Jaune back towards the light.
"Thanks Winter, I probably needed that after all. Was that everything you wanted from me?" He asked, grateful to have vent his frustrations out to another member of the Schnee family.
"Actually there is one more thing for today and this would involve your team as well as my sister's."
"Wait, both our teams?" He was confused by the meaning in her words and he hoped to find out more. However Winter had other ideas as she decided enough time was spent on the bench.
"Come Jaune, it's best we head back to the academy for this. That's where the others will be waiting for us." She said.
Taking in the scenery once more, enjoying the view in front of him. Jaune got up from the bench and followed after the Atlas Specialist.
[~}
"Where are they?" Pacing back and forth in one of the many training rooms. Weiss had a worried look on her face as both Jaune and Winter had yet to arrive.
"Calm down Weiss, we're still five minutes early. They'll be here soon." Her ever so loving partner came to her aid. Calming her nerves down with her usual Ruby way.
"Calm down? Calm down!" Weiss screamed out, panicking even further.
As a result, Ruby started to panic as well. What turned out to be a harmless action, had somehow made Weiss erupt even further than before.
"Woah, everyone take a deep breath in." Yang said. Intervening before things went out of hard too quickly. "Weiss, your sister was with Jaune all morning. Being an older sister, I understand why she would be late as she is entrusting your life with him. That fear where a younger sibling has found someone is always daunting but it's our sole duty to make sure if they're the one who are cut out for the job."
"B-But Winter isn't like how you and Ruby interact at all. She is similar to how I acted when we first met at Beacon. It's just that Jaune is completely dense and I don't want him to fail her evaluation." The fear of losing Jaune overtook her rationality. Breathing intensely, Weiss was hyperventilating over such a petty thought.
"Come on Jaune, we leave you with another Schnee and now your girlfriend is going crazy. I told you Ren, we should have been tailing him just to be safe." On the other side of the room, Nora was in a similar situation but unlike Weiss. She was more worried that they all didn't follow them from a distance.
"Nora, relax. Jaune is most capable in looking after himself, I'm sure that he will turn out okay."
"I still don't like it but there isn't anything to do at all. I can't believe we have spent most of the day stuck in until they arrive. Like why didn't we try to leave?"
"Jaune did command us to stay put and relax and I just followed you two because it seemed like you were going off to do something. I wasn't expecting to be inside a training room where we could've left at any time we wanted to." Oscar said, utterly exhausted after trying to help calm Weiss and Nora at the same time. "He shouldn't be any longer now."
The doors suddenly opened and the man of the hour finally arrived. Only to be rushed by two girls, effectively knocking him onto the ground. "Owwww!"
"Jaune you're back!" Weiss and Nora both shouted at him. Then realising the scene they had created, they swiftly helped him back to his feet. With Nora standing a few feet apart and Weis clinging onto his arm for warmth.
"I must say, I would've thought that you'll be somehow else, rather than awaiting our arrival." Winter said, amused by the greeting her companion had just received from her sister and his teammate.
"Yep, that's our crazy family for you." He sighed, shaking his head as the rest of them watched them with grins on their faces. "How long exactly have you all been waiting for us?"
Jaune wasn't even surprised when most of them started nervously laughing. "Ummm, ever since we learned what had happened to you so maybe...two hours at most here but we spent time doing other things as well. Ruby answered for the group.
"Impressive. Now before you ask, the reason why I have invited both teams is to allow them to spectate a mock duel between the two of us."
"Yeah that's sou-Wait what!?" Jaune shouted out. Afraid as he would be going up against an experienced huntress. In front of all his friends no less, like that would be any better.
"Yeah Jaune, go and show that Schnee how fierce you can be, especially in bed!"
"Y-Yang!"
Affected by the last comment, Winter turned over to Weiss with a raised eyebrow. Said girl just turned away with a mad growing blush on her face, no doubt she was going to find out what Miss Xiao Long meant by that statement from Weiss later.
"May I ask what are the rules for this mock battle?" Ren asked. Directing the attention back towards the main issue.
"The same rules as Beacon back instead it'll be whoever deplete the other's aura is the winner. Even field to allow clear vision and finally, no is to interfere at any cost." Stating the rules for their battle, Winter awaited confirmation from Jaune.
"Wait...so that means this fight won't be over if either of us lose their arua first?"
"Correct. It's also to serve a different purpose as I have that you have a large reserve at your disposal. I merely wish to check if the rumors are true."
"You should see it lady, like Jaune's aura is endless. I can swing a punch and that wouldn't put a dent in it at all. Nora said. Resting her arm onto his shoulder while waving the other as she talked.
"I see. Well then, perhaps this fight will prove to be challenging in some retrospect. Let's take our position then." Winter said, indicating to everyone that they move off to the side.
"Okay." He replied, walking down to the far end with the entrance while Winter stood opposite from him. Giving one quick glance over to his friends, they gave him looks of encouragement. Mostly Yang, Ruby and Nora cheering out his name.
When his eyes rested on Weiss, he noticed that she looked nervous for him. No doubt that Winter is a tricky opponent but that still didn't stop her from accepting her request. Smiling to her way, it luckily did the trick to help calm her down a bit but not a lot.
"I'm ready to begin, how about you?" He asked, focusing his attention on his opponent.
"Very well we shall begin in five seconds. Five, four, three, two, one. Begin."
AN: Well finally, the Jaune and Winter chapter has finally arrived. A bit different to what most people would expect but I think this turned out alright. That beginning turned steamy real quick didn't it, just an idea I wanted to try out and see if it will work.
Other than that, hope you guys enjoy this one since it has been my favourite one to write so far.
Side note, I currently have another WiP centred around my favourite ship in the show so far. Almost got it flesh out and everything, just need to have some people read over it and hopefully I can get it out to you lot pretty soon.
