Hey everyone! Well… Volume 2 has come to a close sadly. *sigh* I hope this story ends well with moments burned into your minds. Here's Chapter 6…

Also, special thanks to Kerrigor2 for giving me some great ideas and helping me out with the story so far. He's awesome and I can't stress enough to you guys to read his story A Red Stained Remnant but if you already read it all, then the sequel's waiting for you…

The sun had set and the rain had stopped as we got to the hotel. Before we went in, Blake stopped outside the doors and shivered, her bow twitching frantically.

"S-s-so c-cold." she said. I felt bad for making her run with me through the rain. Without thinking, I wrapped my arms around her and activated my aura. "Y-Yang?" I didn't respond as my body glowed gold, warming the both of us. When I pulled away, we were both dry and warm. "Thank you."

"Don't mention it." I replied softly. We both walked in, Blake gasped in awe at the place, exactly like I had when I arrived the first time.

"Yeah... it looks amazing." I said.

"Weiss did this... for Ruby?" Blake asked.

"She cares for her, Blake, why wouldn't she?" I asked.

When I made eye contact with her, she looked away. "Let's just head on up... lead the way."

I couldn't help but look for a few more seconds. Was there some bad blood between Blake and Weiss? I thought. Wait, of course they did… Blake was a part of the White Fang and the heiress had a target on her back. They probably didn't know each other personally, but there'd be some tension.

When we went in the elevator and the doors closed, I hesitated to press the button to go up to the twenty-third floor.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked. I knew the answer but I wanted to hear from her point of view.

"I'm… I'm not sure if I can get along with Weiss. Does she even know me, Yang?" she asked. That was not the answer I expected.

Did Weiss know her? I couldn't remember Blake talking about her, and Weiss had never mentioned her either. This is going to be difficult… Weiss isn't great with Faunus. "You two need to get to know each other," I said finally, after a moment of silence.

The Faunus sighed. "Let's just hope it goes well." I pressed the button and the elevator rose quickly. There was nothing but an awkward silence and the sound of grinding gears until the doors opened.

"I'll go first." I took the lead and Blake followed as I walked towards Ruby and Weiss' suite and knocked twice on the door.

"Coming!"A chirpy voice called. The door opened and my sister stood at the doorway; her eyes widened the instant she saw us. "Sis?! Blake?!"

I smiled. "Hey Ruby!"

She leapt into my arms, crying in joy. "I'm so glad you're here… does that mean…"

I pulled away and ruffled her hair gently. "Is there room for two more?" Blake asked, then it was her turn a hug.

"Of course there is," Ruby cried. "Come on in!"

We walked in and followed her into the living room. "It's pretty much the same as the bedroom Weiss and I are in which is across from you guys so… wait where's your stuff?" she asked.

I looked down sadly. "I… we just came here without our things… it would have been better if we didn't go back for them." I replied.

My sister understood clearly. "Well, Weiss and I are making dinner in a couple of minutes so it'll be a good time to make a plan for where you two are going to get clothes and stuff."

I gave her a nod. "We'll do that, go help your girlfriend make dinner."

Her cheeks flushed red. "D-don't say that."

I couldn't help but laugh. "Why shouldn't I?" I asked sarcastically.

"Because… um because I don't want you to!" And with that, she walked out of our room as quickly as she could.

Blake began to laugh. "I've never seen Ruby like this." she said.

I shrugged and gave her a smirk. "Since when did the cat laugh?"

She realized what she was doing and went back to her normal, emotionless expression. "Ha ha, very funny, Yang Xiao Long." she replied with a voice filled with sarcasm.

This only made me interested. "I've just never seen you laugh before."

"Yeah well curiosity killed the cat you know and that cat by the way, is going to be me."

I chuckled. "I'm not going to let my curiosity kill you, Blakey."

The cat sighed. "Don't call me that again." Her eyes glared at me, letting me know that she was serious.

I lifted my hands up in defeat. "Fine, I won't. Anyways we should check on my Ruby and the ice queen; see if dinner's ready."

She grinned. "Let's hope they're finished; I'm starving."

Perfect timing. "I could get you some tuna and-" her response was a flick to my forehead. "Ow!"

"Never mention tuna again… or the laser pointer for that matter." she said in a voice that would have sounded coldly threatening if I didn't know she was joking.

"Alright, Miss Belladonna, I won't." That signaled the end of the conversation as we left our room to check on the lovely couple that's my sister and the queen of ice.

There was an awkward silence in the air around the dinner table as we ate. Ruby and Weiss made pasta with chicken and some sort of white sauce to top it off. I couldn't help but grin at the two. "This tastes amazing!" Ruby shouted, breaking the silence.

"Of course it would be great, you dunce, we made it." Weiss huffed.

I gave her a smirk. "I hope you didn't add hugs and kisses to it," I said teasingly which made the white-haired girl blush.

"H-how dare you!" she exclaimed.

Ruby almost fell off her seat as she laughed loudly. "I never thought the queen could be embarrassed."

I shrugged. "You learn something new everyday sis." I noticed Blake smiling but it quickly faded which made me frown. The silence had returned, as much as I wished that it hadn't I guess there's just some things you can't get rid of. Something strange was happening though, sometimes the faunus and Weiss would glare at each other for a very short period of time which made me confused. I don't think this is good. I thought and mentally kicked myself. Of course it's not good, we should all be happy and getting to know each other… well that task will have to be between Blake and the ice queen but so far, it's not going as great as I wanted it to be.

Suddenly, the black-haired faunus stood up from her seat. "I'm finished." she said in a cold tone and took her plate with her to wash it off at the sink.

"Is there something wrong, Blake?" I asked.

"No, nothing's wrong." She walked back to our room, almost slamming the door as she closed it. What had just happened? What made her get up and sound so cold?

I felt my appetite slipping away as I pondered. "I'm done for tonight too." I said softly and walked away, not even bothering to clean my own plate.

I closed the door behind me softly and noticed that Blake was on the bed with the sheets over her head. "Blake, are you alright?" I asked.

She growled. "I don't want to talk about it."

"So there is something wrong." I heard her sigh. I walked to the other side of the bed, took my shoes off and climbed onto the bed, pulling the sheets over me to see her. "You can tell me… I'm all ears."

Blake chuckled. "Alright, but I already think you know why I'm so… grumpy."

"Is it because of Weiss?"

"Yep."

I sighed. "You two will get along; she just needs to build trust with you that's all."

"But how long will that take, Yang?" she asked.

There are just some things that take a while, but there are also those that don't take long at all. Despite Weiss not being trustful to faunus that easily, I felt that soon they will be great friends. There is one thing: I can't decide when they will… it's up to them and the actions they make that will answer that. I gave her a reassuring smile. "It's up to what you do, Blake, that will determine how long it takes."

Blake groaned. "I knew you were going to say that."

I laughed. "You can't just know the answer right off the bat… Anyway... why are we still under the sheets?"

She shrugged and moved the covers to just be below our necks. "Fine, I'll do my best to be nice." Blake yawned. "I feel so sleepy, but having you around makes me a little nervous."

I raised a brow and my cheeks glowed red faintly. "What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.

"I thought you remembered the time when you cuddled with me in your sleep!" She exclaimed.

"W-wait, that was a one time thing, I never did that before until that night and I swear it'll never happen again." I said quickly.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure, Blake, plus that floor's not looking great to sleep on."

She sighed in defeat. "Alright, but if you do that again, you'll wake up with some missing hair."

I gasped. "You wouldn't!"

Blake smirked. "Oh yes I would."

"Okay, I won't… hopefully." I looked down at the floor again and was thinking of sleeping there but the bed's so comfortable and Blake's on here and- w-wait, am I thinking of Blake like that?! No, no, no I wouldn't think that and even if I did, she wouldn't take a chance being with me. I thought but part of me thought otherwise. Just snap out of this shit, Yang, you don't need to think about this. I shook the thought's out of my mind and made myself comfortable. "Goodnight, kitty."

She sighed. "Goodnight, Yang." I closed my eyes and sleep overcame me.

Blake

She did it again. Even after she said that it'll never happen again, I felt her arms wrap around me and her body pressing up against my back. I knew this would happen. But this time, I heard something strange: she was whimpering. What could the blonde brawler be dreaming of?

Suddenly, I heard her voice. "D-don't leave me." Never had I thought I would hear her with a pained tone… a tear fell from my cheek. "Blake, where did you go?" My eyes widened. She was dreaming of me?

I tried my best not to wake her as I turned myself to face her. "I'm here, Yang," I said to the dreaming blonde.

"Don't go anywhere okay?"

I smiled. "There's nowhere else for me to go… I'm here, with my new family."

A smile appeared on her face. "Thank you."

I wrapped my arms around her and fell back into a warm and peaceful slumber.

Well here's the chapter, this was hard for me to write but I'm glad it's finished. I hope you enjoyed it and I'll see you guys with another chapter…
