"Come on Ruby time to get up." Weiss told her partner for the tenth time that morning. She'd been trying to get Ruby up for about half an hour with little success so far. You might ask why she wasn't trying to wake up Yang or Blake. Well Blake's bed was empty which wasn't that rare of an occurrence, there were times she got up earlier than everyone else and walked out to grab something from the cafeteria or went to the library to get a book. Most of the time though she was reading a book peacefully while the rest got ready for the day.
And Yang.. Well the last time Weiss had tried to wake up the brawler she'd ended up with a sore jaw from being punched by a still sleeping Yang. She found out the hard way mostly Ruby could ever wake her sister up without getting a knock out. Because if you just tried to call her down.. Well let's just say you had a better chance of getting a deaf person to hear you.
"Alright, alright I'm up.." Ruby said drowsily, sitting up with her hair covering her face. Weiss would never admit it out loud, but the sight of a drowsy and barely awake Ruby was adorable to her.
"Wake up your sister will you? She's as usual not responding at all." Ruby yawned and took her pillow, aimed and threw it to where she thought Yang's face was. It was a bit hard to tell, the blankets were really covering her this morning which was a bit unusual. Usually Yang's sheets were anywhere but on her body. Ruby jumped down on the floor as she heard a groan from her sister's bed.
"Wake up Yang." She said as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. But when Yang sat up, Ruby had to rub her eyes again to make sure what she was seeing wasn't an illusion. Clinging to Yang, with her head nuzzled into Yang's stomach like she didn't want her to get up, was Blake. Her eyes were still closed and her expression was set in a peaceful but stubborn expression. Like she was silently telling Yang to lay back down.
"Rubes the next time you hit me with a pillow I'm going to shoot it back at you with my semblance active." Yang grumbled in her newly awakened state, not at all affected by the fact Blake was clinging to her like a cuddling cat. She looked down on Ruby who was starring with her jaw open. "What?" The sound of a sigh mixed with what sounded like a purr drew Yang's attention down to her bed.
She blinked, first surprised over the sight of Blake holding onto her, obviously wanting her to lay back down, but when she recalled the nights events she smiled. Like she'd forgotten Ruby and Weiss was there she pet Blake's head softly. The faunus stirred a bit but did not wake. You could only hear a soft purr from her if you were close like Yang was. Yang started to slowly and softly scratch and massage Blake's cat ears, trying to coax her from her sleep. Blake turned to her side, her head almost off Yang but not quite as her face was tilted upwards. Yang chuckled at the cute reactions she was getting and traced her fingers down from the ears to her face, slowly caressing her cheek lightly. The action was enough to make Blake stir and amber eyes slowly opened to meet with violet.
"Morning kitten. Sleep well? Nightmares bother you?" Blake looked at Yang with dazed eyes, having to blink several times before she realised what position she was in. Oddly though she didn't get up right away. She actually closed her eyes again and nuzzled back into Yang's stomach. Yang chuckled and traced her fingers over Blake's ears. "Blake you still half asleep?" There was no answer and the blond leaned down so she could whisper. "There's nothing else I'd love more than to snuggle with you in bed all day. But we've got an audience and I'd rather keep cute cuddling Blake to my eyes only."
Blake's eyes opened wide and she sat upright, almost knocking into Yang. She noticed the look from Ruby and turned her face to Yang who was only grinning. A blush crept up on her face and almost as quick and swift as Ruby with her semblance, she jumped off, grabbed her clothes and went to the bathroom. Once the door was closed all eyes turned back to Yang who currently couldn't stop grinning.
"Yang? What was Blake doing in your bed? What did you do? What did you just tell her? And finally.. Actually that was it.." Ruby asked all in a rush as usual. Yang raised an eyebrow at her sister.
"Why do you always assume I did something? Blake just had a bad nightmare and as her partner I comforted her. Not my fault most people on this team confide in me when they have nightmares." She eyed Ruby with knowing eyes and the younger crossed her arms with a pout.
"Hey, you're my big sister and.. Wait no I mean I don't need your help with nightmares! Haven't had one in a while.." Yang smirked.
"And that's suppose to prove you dun need your big sis? I heard that Rubes." She jumped down from bed and grabbed her little sister by the shoulder and ruffled her hair. "You'll always be my little sis and no matter what you can always come to me. Even when you deny you need my help." Ruby struggled against Yang's hold, blushing in embarrassment.
"Yang! Stop treating me like a little kid." She whined.
"Stop acting like one and she might." Weiss mumbled under her breath, watching the sisters having a small wrestling match.
"Sorry sis. It's one of my big sister privileges. Cause no matter how big you get you're always gonna be my baby sister. And I will forever tease you." Ruby couldn't keep a small smile from her face despite her sister's insistent teasing. Unconsciously happy having Yang here. "But." Yang let go of Ruby, making her stumble from the sudden release. But before she could fall over Weiss was there to steady her. Yang grinned at this and crossed her arms. "I can also admit that you don't need me to keep an eye on you. Since someone does that perfectly fine for me." She gave Weiss a look and the heiress blushed and huffed, backing away from Ruby. Silver eyes went from her sister to Weiss then back again, looking like a living question mark.
"I don't get it." Yang laughed and ruffled her hair a bit more.
"You don't have to get it Rubes. As long as someone does." She smirked at the continued blush on Weiss's face as she frowned. "I'm not hearing you denying it."
"Yang Xiao Long if you're suggesting what I think you are I'm going to-"
"Put me on Weiss?" Ruby couldn't help but grin and try hold back a laugh. Any pun her sister pulled on Weiss was always somehow funny.
"You insufferable-" Yang put a hand by her ear with a wider smirk.
"Still not hearing it."
"Yang I swear-"
"Um guys!"
"What!?" Weiss sneered, turning together with the other two towards Blake. She was standing by the bathroom door, clad in her uniform.
"We're gonna be late for breakfast and for class if you don't get going." The three girls took a minute to realize exactly what Blake meant then they sprung to action. As they got ready Blake took out a book and read it at the doorway. Though as Ruby and Weiss both tried to go into the bathroom she felt a tap on her shoulder. And when she turned soft lips ghosted over her cheek. Not fully pressing to it but still leaving a warm feeling behind. She stared into violet eyes that just winked at her.
"Good morning kiss for you kitten." Yang whispered and grinned, walking away to get her uniform. Blake felt her cheeks grow hot and she covered her face with her book. How could she do that with a straight face so close to Weiss and Ruby? She wouldn't deny that she liked it but she wasn't used to the blatant show of affection. It was a simple gesture yet it sent her heart for a rollercoaster ride.
There was a moment where she wondered why Yang had done that but soon remembered the night's events. The intimate moment and the kiss flashed clearly in her head. She hadn't even confessed and yet she went and did that. Well, Yang did answer in kind and this little gesture would suggest she feels the same. The mere thought made Blake's heart flutter even more.
"Blake?" She jumped at the sudden call and lowered her book to see the rest of her team ready to go.
"S-Sorry, really good part of the book.. Distracted me.." While Weiss and Ruby accepted the explanation for her zoning out, Yang looked at Blake with a sceptic look. And as they left the dorm for the cafeteria she took a hold of Blake's wrist and made a little distance between them and the other two.
"Blake are you alright? It's rare for you to blank out like that." Yang mumbled, making sure the two of them walked at a little slower pace.
"Huh? N-No I'm fine. Just a little.. Overwhelmed.." Yang raised an eyebrow and Blake quickly pointed to the book. "Real good book!" She knew it was a lost cause. The blond could see right through her.
"Hey Rubes!" Their leader turned around, not even having noticed that there was a good few meters between them now.
"Come on you two!" Yang waved at her and pointed towards the room.
"Forgot somethin in the dorm! Blake's gonna help me find it. We'll be right there!" Ruby, totally oblivious to her sister's real motives, smiled and nodded.
"Okay! Just don't take too long!" The two rounded the corner and Yang sighed, letting go of Blake.
"Yang?" The violet eyes glanced at her then turned downcast.
"Look.. I'm sorry for surprising you with the eh.. Morning kiss.." Blake blinked, blushing a bit at the reminder. "I'm not sure if I crossed some line by doing that but I just thought.. Well to be honest I wanted to kiss you but I wasn't sure if I should with Ruby and Weiss being around.. I wasn't sure if you'd like it. I'm not even sure you'd want me to without them around. I mean we did it during the night but I wasn't sure if that was a spur of the moment thing or.." Blake stared her.
Yang Xiao Long. The headstrong girl who could do anything and tell everyone exactly how she feels without batting an eye, could also flirt without showing any embarrassment, was in front of her with her eyes downcast fidgeting with her hair nervously. She was picking her words, her tone filled with uncertainty and nervousness. She'd never seen this side of Yang before. And the fact that she acted this way because she thought her heartwarming gesture had made Blake uncomfortable.. Well it just made her heart do flips at how cute Yang was being. Yang wanted her to be as comfortable as possible. While also having the thought that maybe last night was just a one time thing.
"Yang.."
"I just wanted to apologize if I did cross the line! Cause I really don't wanna screw this up. You mean so much to me and I really don't want to lose you as a friend if being more than just friends isn't what you want. I mean.. I guess.. Ugh.. What I meant to say-" But before continuing her nervous ramble, and after a quick look around the hall to make sure no one was there, Blake knocked her on the head with her book. "Ouch, what was that for-" But she was interrupted once again by a soft touch to her cheek. It was her turn to blush. Amber eyes met with her own, a warm light glowing from them.
"Thank you Yang. I'm glad you consider my feelings to this degree. But if anyone should apologize I should. There was nothing wrong with what you did. I'm just not used to feeling like this. No one, except my parents, have ever shown their affection in small gestures like that. I just wasn't prepared for it. But don't get me wrong it didn't make me feel uncomfortable. A little embarrassed? Maybe.. But I couldn't be happier. And.." She blushed while looking away. "I don't want what happened during the night to be a one time thing.." Yang stood still for a moment, processing the words slowly to make sure she'd heard her right.
"So.. You mean I can kiss you?" Blake's blush deepened but she nodded. The blond smiled brightly but before she could jump Blake she held up the book in her face, stopping her.
"But please.. I'm not used to this Yang.. So can you take it slow and be gentle please?" She was still a bit uncertain about relationships, I mean just look how her last one turned out. She didn't want to upset Yang but she'd need time to adjust. Her partner sensed her uncertainty and smiled, dialed down her excitement, then pushed the book aside to hug the faunus gently.
"We'll go however slow you want to Blake. I'll just be happy if I can get the same cuddles I got last night."
"Deal." Blake wrapped her arms around Yang, one hand grabbing her hip while the other merely rested against it, still holding the book. The feeling of being surrounded by a warm sun went through her again. She nuzzled her nose into the blond mane, knowing if sunlight had a smell it would definitely smell like Yang.
"Blake?" She hummed in response. "Can I.. Can I kiss you right now?" Blake blushed and was silent for a second. They separated, Yang's hands still by her waist as violet met amber.
"We need to catch up to Ruby and Weiss." Yang's eyes dropped as a small pout formed on her lips but Blake cleared her throat. "Not done talking." She looked down the hallway, seeing no one there for the moment but being able to hear muffled voices. "We need to catch up to them so you better do it quick." Yang's eyes lit up again and she smiled widely while nodding frantically, her silent excitement making Blake smile over how cute she was. She cupped Blake's cheeks, brushing away some hair from her face as she tilted it up just an inch. She was handling her like she could break at the slight miss touch.
Blake closed her eyes as Yang leaned in, shortly after feeling warmth spread throughout her body starting from her lips. It was really like Yang's aura was melding with her own. It's warm yellow glow surrounding her like a protective blanket, pushing all bad thoughts to the back of her mind. Like their first this one didn't last more than a few seconds. But during those seconds Blake could feel that Yang held herself back, not deepening the kiss too much. She'd rather wait for Blake to do so herself if she felt she could handle it. And god did she want to but there was still that feeling of uncertainty. That and if they did any more it would make for an awkward discussion with the upcoming students. Either way the fact Yang held herself back just to make her comfortable warmed Blake enough to press to the blond for a bit longer than intended.
"Yeah, really need to do that more." Yang mumbled after they separated. Blake merely smiled, her cheeks dusted pink. The blond was almost glowing. Her aura always did radiate a bit of a glow, making her the center of attention but now it was almost as if her semblance was active. That's just how happy she was. The fact she became like this with Blake only made said girl feel a sense of pride. She was the only one who she knew about able to get this reaction from the brawler. Yang let go of the faunus only to grab her free hand with a grin. "Come on, I've gotten an appetizer but I should probably eat some food too." She winked at her and Blake felt her cheeks heat up a bit more at the remark but couldn't help the smile coming to her face.
"With your beastly appetite I'd be surprised if that was enough." Yang laughed as they walked towards the cafeteria holding hands.
"I'm told I got the appetite of a dragon." She said with a wink and Blake rolled her eyes but couldn't get the smile off her face. As they walked into the cafeteria Yang started to let go of Blake's hand. However with a slight tug she was right beside Blake, their still joined hands hidden behind their backs. She looked at Blake with a surprised expression however her partner merely opened her book with one hand, reading with a small smile. Yang seemed to catch on and leaned a bit closer to look like she was trying to read over Blake's shoulder. It wasn't a rare thing, to see them walk so close together. So no one took second glances at them as they came in.
"Blake! Yang! Over here!" Ruby called from a table not far from the entrance. "What took you guys so long? What did you forget that took so long to find?" Yang grinned as she discreetly let their joined hands slip between them as they sat down next to each other.
"Looked for my scroll. Fell off my bed at some point and landed under Blake's bed. No worries though, still intact. And we were only gone for like ten minutes, not that long." Ruby just shrugged and took a bite out of her cookie while Weiss eyed the brawler with a weary look. "What's up Weiss? Not pleased to Schnee me?" The heiress sighed and drank her tea.
"Just waiting for you to get that out of your system." Yang snickered and glanced at Blake. She had her book up but there was a slight smile on her face. And Ruby was just doing her best not to laugh.
"Oh and Blake sorry I forgot to get you a tuna sandwich. Didn't know if you wanted one but eh.." Ruby said, having been helpful in preparing two trays of breakfast for the two latecomers. Blake closed her book softly and looked at the tray. It consisted of her favourite tea, an apple, two sandwiches with cheese and ham to the side and a cookie since Ruby couldn't resist putting one on everyone's trays. Yang's was similar but she had chicken and ham on her sandwiches.
"I wasn't sure if you would like choosing something cause you're a.. You know.. I'm sorry.." Ruby pouted, looking like a sad puppy. Blake, like many, always felt bad when the energetic girl looked sad because she thought she'd done something wrong. Not many could stand up to Ruby's pout. Especially not Yang. So before Blake even had a chance to reassure the smaller girl Yang was up on her feet.
"Dun worry Rubes I got it. I'll get ya a tuna sandwich Blakey. She forgot I always want a bit extra chicken anyway so I'll get some of that while I'm up." She let go of Blake's hand and winked at her as she made her way to the serving table.
"Thanks Yang." She said shortly and the brawler waved a hand in the air as she left. The faunus already missed the bit of extra warmth Yang always emitted. But to look unaffected she opened up her book again as she drank some of her tea. She took small notice to that team JNPR stumbled into the cafeteria, Jaune apologizing for oversleeping while Ren tried to convince him it had been Nora that overslept and Pyrrha was being silent to the whole matter. Nora already being over by the cafeteria stacking up on pancakes.
"Sometimes I can't believe he leads that team." Weiss mumbled as she watched Jaune slump down on a chair with a solemn expression. Ruby shrugged.
"Well you sometimes can't believe I lead this one so.." The heiress cast the smaller girl a glare.
"I haven't believed so in a while thank you very much."
"So you do believe I can lead this team?"
"You haven't killed us yet with one of your crazy tactics. I won't deny that someone's done good work when I see it." Ruby's eyes almost sparkled as she looked at Weiss with a big smile. Blake herself thought this a bit out of character. Usually- "But I will also admit when some of those tactics are outright reckless. If we didn't all look it over and agree I bet you'd decide to have me and Blake slingshot your sister into a hoard of beowolves just because she's Yang she'll be fine." There it was. Ruby pouted, about to protest.
"I wouldn't mind being slingshot into that. Sounds fun." Yang came with as she sat down, putting down two tuna sandwiches by Blake.
"Yang don't encourage such a dumb idea." Yang grinned and leaned her chin on her hand.
"Why not? If you're so against it slingshot Rubes in there with me. We would go through em like butter. Right lil sis?" Yang held out her fist. Ruby, totally forgetting she should be saying she would never do such a thing, fist bumped her sister with a grin.
"Yeah we would. Sister combination! Would be almost as good as Bumblebee. Cause I will admit, Yang and Blake combination is one of the best." Yang winked at her with a snap of her fingers.
"Damn right. You agree don't ya Blakey?" Blake looked up from her book, knowing perfectly well what Yang was insinuating. The blond even had her fist up for her to bump if she so decided to. She gave a light sigh but smiled and fist bumped Yang and answered.
"Sure." Yang grinned while Weiss frowned.
"Well regardless of which combination I'm not going to slingshot anyone into a group of beowolves."
"Oh come on now. Weisso serious?" Ruby snorted at the pun while Yang only grinned, wiggling her eyebrows at the heiress who looked less than pleased.
"Yang if you keep making fun of my name I'm going to get extremely-"
"Hold up a Schneecond, I need to get a refill, Blake you need one? Here I'll get you some more." Yang said with a grin and took Blake's empty teacup and headed back for the serving table. Weiss had one hand in the air, brow twitching as her frown deepened and she clenched her hand while trembling slightly from the bottled anger. Ruby held a hand to her mouth, afraid her laughing would make Weiss pop. Blake merely gave the heiress a look before returning to her book with a mild smile on her face. Jaune and his team were making their way over to their table, Jaune waving to them.
"Hey Ruby! Good morning nice to see-" However at the word see Weiss turned her head to him, giving him a death glare that told him not to even try. Jaune, confused as to why she was mad with him, shrunk in place, trembling.
"Ehm.. Sorry Jaune. That's the after effect of too many Weiss puns from Yang. Calm down Weiss, I don't think Yang will do them anymore." Ruby tried to calm the heiress to no avail.
"I won't do what?" Yang asked, putting down Blake's teacup and sitting down beside her again.
"Yang! If you do any more puns Weiss is gonna blow!" Ruby exclaimed and Weiss took a deep breath.
"It's.. Fine.. I'm fine." Yang raised an eyebrow.
"Well you and Blake seem to find them ameowusing at least. Right Blake?" The cat faunus picked up on the pun thrown at her and gave the blond a side stare. "Okay fine I'll stop." Ruby sighed out in relief but then noticed something.
"Yang weren't you getting a refill?" Yang smirked. Blake knew exactly what that smirk meant, she must have planned this from the beginning, and sighed, thinking she'd chosen quite the girl to fall for.
"Right after I get some Weiss tea!" She shot up from her seat, barely avoiding Weiss reaching for her.
"Yang Xiao Long you get back here right now and let me strangle you!"
Me: Alright you guys asked for it so here it is. Second chapter. Still not sure if I'm gonna keep the title but it's gonna be that way for now. Now next question is, do you want smut later on or do you wanna keep your minds innocent? Pff, like anyone who reads fanfiction is still innocent..
Yang: Ooh so I might get to see some Bellabooty? I approve!
Blake: *blushes*
Me: Of course you do Yang. If I asked you before writing anything this story would already be a smut fic.
Yang: Not denying it.
Me: Anyway.. I'm asking the readers if they'd like it, in future chapters of course. We must first advance the plot.
Yang: Don't you mean advance to the plot? *wiggles eyebrows*
Blake&Me: *groans*
Yang: But you're right there's no need for me and Blake to Yang so soon. Slow and Weissy wins the race.
Me: *facepalm* Okay let's just end this authors note before I go insane. Blake please if you would.
Blake: Please review or PM with your thoughts and ideas. Wolf is still not sure where this is going so feel free to give requests and ideas on what you might want to see happen. Like moments you want characters to have and so on.
Yang: I will see you guys in the Wei-
Me: Yang no more puns!
Yang: See you in next chapter!
