Reunion
Atlas was very different from Vale. Mainly because it snowed. Every. Single. Day. He hated snow, when he and his sister lived in the orphanage that was their home for the most of their lives, the heat didn't always hold up during the winter, so he had to fall asleep in his winter clothes. Sometimes he'd wake up warm enough, others when the heat kicked back in he would wake up covered in sweat.
He hated the cold for that reason, he hated the snow because it would stick to his clothes when he went to bed. There were reasons he never spoke of his childhood. This was one of them. And walkin through the snow covered fields of the atlas border was not exactly doing anything to improve his opinion of the season.
Jake wore a white padded winter pullover that was zipped up to his neck, a pair of cargo pants that were white as well to help him blend in with the surroundings. Right now, things were calm in the city, team…...well he didn't have a clue what to call them, but Jaune, Ruby, Ren, Nora, and Weiss all managed to put a stop to it before it got out of hand.
Jake had kept to himself for the most part, which is why he was walking around keeping on the lookout for grim. The citizens of Atlas had lost a bit of faith in the military after the tournament attack, so many had volunteered to watch the city limits for any sign of the Grim activity. But they were volunteers, and that's why Jake joined, so that way they would at least have another experienced hand to help them.
The other was Winter, Weiss's older sister. Jake honestly liked her, she may seem cold and calculating, but he heard how she and her sister spoke, she loved her little sister. Plus being put in the military like she did it was no wonder she was stern.
But she treated the volunteers with respect, and him too.
The scroll buzzing in his pocket caused the young man to stop, pulling it out he read the emergency message, a flock of Lycans were heading directly his way, reinforcements were coming but they would be about five minutes.
Lycans were basically wolf grim. Not Beowolves, but wolf sized Grim. And honestly pretty cool, mainly because they only worked in packs like actual wolves. Of course that made them even more dangerous, being able to coordinate with one another but that also meant that it was more of a challenge,
Beowolves, Ursa, Jacals, Griffins, Nevermores, basically most of the Grim that Jake has encountered are big and dumb, and honestly? Grim were not dangerous one on one, unless you deal with one of the big ones like Deathstalkers or another incredibly large Grim. Like a dragon…...like a stupid….stupid...dragon.
The sound of snarling made his head snap over to see a least two dozen Lycans, black fur and bone armor going down their backs, covering their snouts and faces all the way to their tails. One of them though had white fur, the pack leader.
Pulling his shield off his back, he smirked as the pack circled around him. "Ok boys, you wanna hunt?" he asked as two of them barged towards him from the front.
Jake leapt forward, slamming his shield into the head of one of them as he kicked one of his feet out into the other one, both of them feel to the ground, turning to ash as Jake landed, swinging the rim of the shield through one of their mouths.
He heard snow behind him crumbling, he raised the shield above his head, the Lycan recoiled from ramming into the shield. Turning around, Jake threw the weapon at the grim, the projectile bounced off the canine grim and rebound off three others before Jake caught it.
The other grim backed off, turning around he saw why. The alpha of the pack walked forward, stalking low to the ground as it growled, "Ok big guy. You and me, come on." Jake challenged, his shield raised and ready to fight.
The lycan pounds at him, the young man raised his shield to defend but the lycan landed just in front of him before taming into him. The wolf was on top, reeling it's head back, Jake knew it was about to bite him. He quickly raised his empty arm to block it, the young man letting out a hiss as the teeth sunk into his flesh. He used the moment to swing his shield with enough force to decapitate the grim, the body turning ash as it fell sideways onto the ground, the head following soon after.
Standing up, he saw the other grim running off into the tundra. Looking down at his arm, he winced slightly, the bite had taken a but of flesh but also cut into one of his series. Thankfully his aura was already patching the wound up. Digging his scroll out of his pocket, he sent the all clear call for his sector.
The young man let out a sigh as he turned in the direction of atlas, "Well that was fun. God I hope I don't need a rabies shot." She muttered as he put his shield on his back while walking back to the city.

Yang stared out the window of the ship, she knew that Atlas was knowing for its winter weather lasting all year long, but the fact that she didn't see a spec of color for miles was not what she expected. She groaned from boredom, "Uggggggghhh….I'm bored." she groaned out before letting her head fall back against the headrest.
Beside her Blake looked up from her book and smirked.
When the blonde first found her, she expected Yang to hate her. And Jake was right, Yang decked her more than once when she found her. But he was also right when he said that Yang didn't blame her for what Adam had done, he was to blame, not her.
Before she could have said anything, Yang hugged her, just like when she was working herself ragged to try and find Roman Torchwick. And just like then, Blake realized that she was right…...this time she had a few more bruises. "You could nap." Blake said simply.
Yang shook her head, "I slept my butt off enough." she said, getting her scroll out of her pocket. Looking at messages, she saw her last one from her dad, making sure that she had everything for her flight. She smiled, her dad had been more than a little apprehensive about her going to Atlas, but he also knew that Yang was in more than safe hands with her friends.
She also had a email from Neon of Team FNKI, she heard what happened and offered to take her out clubbing. As nice as that was, there was only two people she had to see the moment the ship touched down, Jake and Ruby. She had asked Jake not to tell Ruby about the new arm so she could surprise her, she was going to flip when she saw it.
Looking down at her arm, she smiled, when Blake saw it she wasn't surprised, stating she saw Jake working on it when she confronted him. The arm was working perfectly too, Jake had made it so she could have it on all day every day without discomfort. Though removable she opted to keep it on at all times, last time she did it took her a whole day to readjust to the weight.
"You thinking about him?" Blake asked, making Yang look over at her. The Faunus smiled, "You're staring at your arm again." she stated.
Yang smiled, "Yeah…...jerk hasn't called me since he left." she stated jokingly. A number of ways of communicating had been reestablished, but unfortunately phone calls were still being worked on, they worked sometimes but long distance calling was still being worked on. He messaged her the moment he touched down, stating that it was colder than Weiss's personality.
That made the two girls laugh.
Yang's winter gear was…..well she just had orange stockings that covered her legs and a longer shirt to cover her midsection. Her semblance kept her body at a comfortable warm temperature.
"He's fine. Besides its Jake, he can't get into too much trouble." Blake said reassuringly, setting her book down in her lap. Jake didn't take risks unless he either had to, or he was angry enough too, and she saw him like that only once, after he found out what happened to her and Yang.
She shook those thoughts aside, deciding to not remind herself of that day. She noticed the small backpack at Yang's feet, containing all that she had brought with her. "You got anything to distract yourself with?" she asked.
The blonde looked down at her bag and picked it up, rummaging through it she looked for something to distract herself. Clothes, keys to bumblebee, camera, map of Atlas, there wasn't much else. Her eyes twinkled with a bit of mischief when she found a certain something that she had managed to sneak past her dad's inspection.
"What are you-" Blake started before she saw what Yang was looking at, Yang's face turned red as Blake's eyes widened before smirking. "Oh my." she said slyly.
"It's not what it looks like." Yang stated, closing the bag so that Blake couldn't get a better look at her…..thing. Yang may like to tease others, but there's teasing and then there's embarrassing, and this was just plain embarrassing.
Blake continued smirking, "Oh really? Because that looks like a box of-"
Yang raised her robotic fist "Finish that word. Go on. I dare you Belladonna."
The Faunus simply raised her book back up to barely cover her eyes, which were staring at Yang. The blonde brawler puffed her cheeks out in embarrassment, "Jake is…...the poor boy is shy." she explained, her cheeks going red.
Honestly when she lost her arm, one of the things that came to her mind was Jake and her's relationship. She used to turn heads when she entered a room, but with her arm gone….the idea of a intimate relationship left her. But when Jake went so far for her…..it put the possibility back into her mind.
"So you think you have to take the initiative with…...that, because you don't think he can?" Blake asked, thankful that the seats around them were empty. She didn't mind talking to Yang about this, Yang was her single most best friend, she had to help her out with this.
"How long did it take him to talk to me again?" Yang asked, making Blake let out a 'ahh' of understanding. The young woman sighed, "I mean…..I talk a big game, but me and Jake? I can't leave it to chance…..I don't think he'll mess it up or anything but…." she trailed off.
"But you think that now's the best possible time?" Blake suggested. Between the attack, and whatever Cinder may have planned, the timing for this could certainly be better…..but then again it may not. From what they had gathered, Ruby and the others managed to Stop Cinder for the time being, "Go for it." she said with a small smile.
Yang had to give her a double take, "Right now, things are ok. We don't know how many of those days we have left. So why not enjoy them?" Blake asked.
Yang smiled before wrapping her up in a hug, "Aw thanks kitten." she said happily, squeezing Blake hard enough that there was a tad difficulty in breathing.
"Yang, air."

"That was reckless of you." Winter stated as Jake wrapped the bandages around his forearm. Jake had just finished explaining what had transpired at his post earlier, "You should have held your position and fall back so the others could help you." she said.
The young man had to fight back the urge to roll his eyes, "And I didn't think it would do any good having like five guys who've never seen a grim before." he sleep lied as he stood up from the examination table. The doctor had stated that he should be fine, but to simply rest for a few days.
Winter narrowed her eyes at him, "You don't think they'll handle it." she stated, crossing her arms behind her back.
"I'm saying is that they want to help, that's fine. But they should at least have some training with what they're going up against." Jake explained as he grabbed his turtleneck and pulled it down over his head, rolling up his sleeve so the wound could get some air to heal.
Winter sighed, "How can they get the experience if you don't let them?" she asked him rhetorically. "You don't coddle Soldiers."
"They're volunteers. And if I remember right I ended up having to take apart your tin men a few months ago." Jake replied, causing Winter to scowl at him. The young man big his inner cheek, "Look I'm sorry. But you're treating them like they've gone through basic training when the best they could have gotten in a self defense class. They are not huntsmen, they're people who are scared." he said.
Winter let her features go back to being calm, "What would you suggest then? We've put out jobs for huntsmen but no one is taking up the offers after the…..incident." she said hesitantly.
Jake thought for a moment, "Well…...we're good with this because we've been trained. So why not give them the basics like they give at combat schools?" he suggested. When he decided to become a Huntsman, he wasn't ashamed to admit he had no idea how to begin on that path. But Signal really did help, they taught him the basics of fighting and over time he made his own.
Winter thought it over, "I suppose that could work…..Haven is closed until next semester. I'm sure a few teachers wouldn't mind." she said as the two exited the examination room.
"Exactly. Look the thing is, we can't have people be afraid of them. Not now anyway." He said.
"Otherwise we'll have a repeat of what happened at Beacon." she said solemnly.
Jake felt a knot in his gut at the mention. "Yeah…..so we need to make sure no one is scared." he said affirmatively as he broke off from winter and made his way out the lobby they entered. That went for him too.
As he exited the small medical center, he looked down at his arm….he kept thinking of Yang. If those Lycans tore a guy's arm off he would go through the exact same thing she did, and that guy's friends and family may not know how to help him.
The young man shook his head, he shouldn't think like that, like she said it was not his fault. What is his fault is of he gets chewed to death by a pack because I keep thinking like this. he thought as he put his hands in his pockets. He was going home, getting bitten takes a lot out of a guy.
…...oh goddamnit Yang I'm being more like you. Jake thought, realizing the stupid pun he made.
(000)
"Ohmygoshit'ssogoodtoseeyouwemissedyouand- WOAH!" Ruby squealed out as she gave Yang a bear hug before noticing her sister's new arm. The small red bundle of joy had tackled her sister to the ground the moment she got out if the gates, Weiss had kept her composure but was also happy to see Yang up on her feet.
"Where did you get the arm? *GASP* Did you grow it back?!" Ruby asked as she pulled Yang up onto her feet again, inspecting the new arm of her sister's.
Yang grinned, "Jake made it for me, pretty cool eh?" she asked as Ruby all but drooled over the arm. She was honestly proud to show it off, she hadn't removed the synthetic layer of skin, mainly because she was told it's hard to get back on without any help, but feeling it up you can tell that it's cybernetic.
"Woooaaaaahhhh seriously!? That's so cool!" she cheered as she hung off Yang's Yang robo arm.
Yang pulled her little sister into a hug, "Ruby I am so sorry that you had to go on your own…..I was so mad at everything and-" she starting, going over the rehearsed apology she had come up with days after she snapped out of her foul mood.
"Yang it's ok, you were mad, you lost your arm, Beacon was closed, we all were sad." She said, gesturing to Blake and Weiss, the heiress and Faunus both nodding in agreement with their leader.
"You lost a arm. No one expected you to be chipper about it." Weiss stated sympathetically. "I was actually going to set up an appointment with a family friend who could help with your arm."
Yang gave the heiress a smile, "Aw Weiss, that's so ICE of you to do." she said, causing the heiress to glare at her. "Thats right! I'm back baby!" The blonde cheered loudly, making the other three girls smile at her familiar bubbly attitude. "So, where's my mechanic?" she asked, looking around for Jake. She had texted Ruby that she would be arriving today by airship, so she assumed that her teammates would be there. "Wait. Where's everyone else?"
"Ren, Jaune, and Nora are all at Haven. They're looking to see if Cinder was even a student here." Weiss explained somewhat sadly. "Jaune just wants to keep busy." she said, the others understanding the poor blonde's reasons.
"As for Jake…..he's probably with Winter right now." she added.
Yang raised a eyebrow, "Why would he be with your sister?" Yang asked. She didn't get a chance to meet Winter when she came to Beacon, but from what Weiss told them, she was strict in company, but around Weiss she let her hair down so to speak.
Ruby and Weiss gave each other a look, when he first arrived, Jake spent every day with them in trying to find Cinder. But after hearing that people were volunteering to defend the city, he joined up to help protect it. When they asked him why, he simply said it was because he needed something to do.
"He's been helping out around the city. He'll probably fill you in better." Weiss said, deciding to let the two talk it out on their own instead of getting involved.
Yang shrugged, "Ok then. So where's home?" she asks, leaning down to pick up her bag.

"How the hell they got the garbage disposal stuck is beyond me." Jake stated from under the sink as he worked to fix the sink feature.
The apartment that they had procured, Weiss had chipped in the most, was large enough for all of them. The living room, kitchen, and dining table where all in the central room, the room could be divided by the floor, the living room had carpet, the dining area was wooden, and the kitchen was marbel.
The living room had a large couch and a few chairs surrounding a small table with a fireplace on the wall opposite of the couch with a TV above the fireplace. The kitchen was made into the wall opposite of the TV. On the wall opposite of the door into the apartment was a long table for dinners with a row of glass windows looking out to the city.
There were two hallways on each side of the apartment as well, each leading to seven bedrooms in total.
Laying on marble floor in the coldest city in the world. Jake never would have guessed his life choices would bring him to this.
Jake always tinkered with machines and other complex parts when he was little. It was actually how he discovered his semblance. The ability to adapt.
The more he works on something the greater understanding he has. Now that wasn't limited to repairing and making things, when he was in a fight he could learn a lot from a opponent by trading a few blows.
But it wasn't perfect, he only retained the information for only so long. But the longer he is in contact the longer he keeps the knowledge. He's spent ten minutes on the sink and he could tell that Ren's pancake syrup may be the culprit for this.
"Come on baby, work for me." he muttered, reconnecting the power to the garbage disposal and pressing the test button. The sink's blades spin like they usually did. "There you go sweetheart, all better." he said with a small smile.
The sound of the door opening and closing made him sit up, hitting his head against the sink before crawling out. "Ren, I love your food man but I swear to god you clog this thing again and you'll be fixing it with your bare hands." he said as he got out from under the sink.
When he popped his head up, his eyes widened before he broke out in a smile. As soon as he was on his feet, Yang had wrapped him up in a hug and lifted him up into the air. "Hey there sunshine." he with a grin.
Yang pulled him into a passionate kiss, going so far as to tease him with a little bit of her tongue before Weiss coughed loudly enough to get their attention. Jake blushed out of modesty, "S-Sorry girls." he apologized.
"Aw it's ok. It's cute." Ruby said nonchalantly before she noticed the bandage on Jake's forearm. "Hey are you ok?" she asked.
The others noticed young as well, Yang reaching for his hand lifting it, "Woah what happened? You alright sweetie?" she asked.
Jake smirked, "Sweetie?" he asked.
"You call me sunshine." She pointed out. "But seriously, what happened?" she asked with some concern. Obviously Jake was find, he wasn't badly wounded, but she wanted to be sure that he was alright.
The young man scratched the back of his head, "I was out on my patrol on the Atlas border and-"
(000)
"TWO DOZEN LYCANS!?" Yang yelped as Jake finished telling his story. The five had decided to sit down for Jake's story, unfortunately Yang did not find it entertaining as the others had. Ruby thought it was awesome of course, and Weiss and Blake were impressed as well.
Yang…...well….
"Are. You. Insane!?" The blonde asked, her hands holding his one good arm in a vice grip. "Why didn't you wait for others to show up!?" she asked.
Jake knew when Yang was angry, anyone could tell when she was. This wasn't anger, this was concern and worry. "I would rather have me, a experienced huntsman-"
"Huntsman in training." Yang corrected.
"-take care of a pack of Lycans than a bunch of inexperienced civilians." he explained for the second time today. The young man gave Yang a smile of reassurance, "Yang I'm fine. Just a little bite mark." he said calmly.
The blonde didn't seem entirely convinced, jake's fingers entwined with her's and gave her hand a squeeze of reassurance. She looked at him directly before smiling at her, "I'm fine. Ok?" he asked, trying to ease her worries.
The young woman signed, "Ok. Your fine. Happy?" she asked before smiling at him. He smiled back at her, causing her stomach to knot with nervousness, "S-So where's our room at?" she asked, looking around as she tried to get rid of the butterflies that found their way into her chest.
"Oh yeah, we only have seven rooms so one of us will have to share." Ruby said, only leading to the fluttering in Yang's chest to become even worse somehow.
Blake could see that her partner was now nervous, her eyes not meeting anyone's, her heel tapping against the ground rapidly, "Me and Yang can bunk together. That ok with you?" Blake asked the blonde who nodded, grabbing their bags, the two stood up and made their way out of the room, Jake smiling at Yang the entire time,
As soon as they were in the bedroom, Yang closed the door behind her and let out out what could only be described as a mix between a sigh and groan. "Oh my god what am I doing?" she asked, her hands latching to the side of her head as she begun to pace back and forth. "It's too soon, we've only known each other for like six months, who has sex after six months?"
Blake…..well she was somewhat speechless. She'd seen Yang angry, sad, happy, joking, depressed, overjoyed, but this was the first time she's ever seen Yang nervous. She put her hands on the blonde's shoulders, "First off, breathe." she commanded.
The young woman sucked in a breath and let it out through her nose like she saw Jake do whenever he gets nervous. "Ok, ok, ok, I was stupid, and I'm rushing this, and-"
"Stop." Blake said simply, making Yang be quiet for the moment. "What's this about really?" she asked.
Yang was silent for a moment before her left hand reached over to her right arm. "It's this." she said, shaking her new arm. "I mean it's fake and he knows it…...so what if he gets freaked out?" she asked, her right hand tightening into a fist, "Or what if I accidentally hurt him with it! I mean this isn't flesh and bone it's metal!" she said, raising the arm for Blake to see.
The Faunus reached out and grasped Yang's hand, "You see this? Your holding my hand." she started. "You're not breaking it, you're holding it, now if you can do this? You don't need to worry about hurting him. Ok?" she asked with a small smile of reassurance.
Yang looked down at her hand, she took a deep breath before letting it out. Blake was right, she spent weeks getting used to her hand, she could juggle glass cups if she wanted to and not break them. The blonde room s deep breath before looking truly calm, the butterflies in her gut dying down a little.
"Ok….ok I can do this." she said, trying to boost her confidence.
(000)
"I can't do this." Yang whispered to herself as a plate of food was placed in front of her. Jake sat across from her with Jaune, Ren, and Nora on his side, and the rest of Yang's team on her side.
Jake was simply enjoying his food, being given a few days off he said that he was going to spend them relaxing. That gave Yang little to no excuse as to why they can't…...she can't even think it!
What the hell is wrong with me! I'm Yang Xaio Goddamn Long! I talk about sex like nothing! I say innuendo like no one knows! For Oum's sake look at me! she thought with frustration. So…..why am I so nervous about this? she wondered, looking down at her food.
Before Jake used his fork to steal one of her dumplings. "Hey!" she said accusingly as her boyfriend plopped the food in his mouth.
"Yes?" he asked with a smirk.
"Who said you can steal my food?" she asked, leaning over the table and staring him down.
Jake was still smirking, "Well you stole my food all the time! Last time we are at the hospital you stole my share of jello." he pointed out, thinking back to the hospital food that was actually pretty good.
It was Yang's turn to smile, "That's because I needed to get these back." she said, flexing her muscles proudly. Building back her strength was one of the hardest parts of rehabilitation, but she managed to get through it. "Look at these guns, they're so deadly just looking at them is dangerous." she bragged proudly.
Ruby quickly stood up and ran over behind her sister, spreading her arms out by her sister's head. "High caliber guns!" she said proudly before going back over to her seat.
Jake chuckled, seeing Yang like this filled him with nothing but joy. She had been in such a dark place when he first saw her in the hospital, and seeing her smiling again and joking just made him happy. "Yep. Armed and dangerous." he joked.
It took a second before that sunk in, Yang bursting out in laughter. The blonde clutched her gut as she fell out of her chair, everyone watched as Yang started rolling on the ground with laughter.
Yang couldn't help it, it was just so damn funny. And Jake didn't even mean to make the joke. As Yang started to calm down, she got back up into her seat. Looking around she saw that everyone was looking at her with some concern, "Guys it's fine. So I got a fake arm, so what? Besides he made it for me, if anyone can joke about it he can." she said, waving it off.
As they all got back to eating, Yang looked over at Jake. This guy…..he stuck by me….he made me my new arm…..he loves me and I love him…..and that's why I'm scared. she realized.
She didn't want to rock the boat on this.
Yang's eyes drifted down to her plate, Jake was honestly one of the best things to ever happen to her. She didn't want to screw herself over here.
She felt something bump against her toes. Pulling out her seat a little, she glanced down under the table and saw Jake's foot swinging towards her and back towards him. She smirked to herself before joining him, lightly tapping her toes against his.
She didn't want to change this….but maybe change didn't mean it gets worse. Maybe it means it gets better.
(000)
"I refuse to help you with this." Blake stated, keeping her eyes glued to the pages of her book. "I'll help you with almost anything. Fight the White Fang? Of course. Giant Robot? Sure thing. But this? No. Not in a million years." Blake stated, not even looking at Yang.
The blonde was holding up…...she was holding up two pairs of underwear and wanted to seduce Jake with. There was no other possibly way to put it, she was literally holding up two sets of panties and bras and wanted to know which one was better.
"Come on! You helped me this far, you gave me the thumbs up to even do this." Yang pointed out, thinking to their talk on the ship and the talk before dinner.
"That was being supportive. And I draw the line at picking out what underwear you think is best." she said in a monotone voice just to show how much little she was interested. She would go out the window if they could open….or if they weren't on the tenth story of the building. Yang let her arms fall to her sides, her cheeks puffing out in disappointment, "Look you can't just walk over there in your panties, what if Ruby sees you?" she asked.
That made Yang drop both sets, she hadn't even considered that idea. The blonde ran a hand down her face, "There has got to be some way to do this." she muttered before a idea popped in her head, "Hey that series, Ninjas of Love, how does the girl get the guy in the sack?" she asked bluntly.
Blake fumbled with the current book in her hands, her face turning a deep shade of red. "I….you….how?" she asked.
"Oh I found Jake's stash back at school. But seriously come on! How does she get him in bed?" she asked, making Blake's face redden even more.
The Faunus had to take a moment to think about the situation. More importantly, how to end this conversation right now, "She went over to his room. And talked. One thing lead to another and-"
"They banged?" Yang asked slyly.
"Made love. Yes. Now please. For Oum's sake, leave. Now." Blake said, covering her face so the blonde wouldn't see her blush. Along with a cunning little smile for lying.
Yang took a deep breath before gathering herself and walking out the door in her nightwear. Walking down the hall, she made doubly sure to be quiet as she possibly could as not to disturb anyone. Jake's room was at the opposite end of the hall, so for about for five yards she had to be deathly quiet.
When she made it to the door, she had to stop. Taking a deep breath, she lightly knocked her fingers on the wooden door with one hand as she grasped the knob with the other. Turning the knob, she peeked inside and was relieved to see Jake was awake.
The young man was in the middle of taking off the bandages of his bite. Looking up at the door, he smiled, "Hey there sunshine, what brings you here?" he asked, Yang shutting the door behind her and locking it without Jake noticing.
Turning around she have him a smile, "I haven't gotten to be with my boyfriend alone since I got here, that's why I'm here." she stated as she walked over to the bed and sat down next to him, leaning in to kiss him on the lips.
Yang's hands held the sides of his face as her lips moved against his. Jake's hands dropped the bandages out of surprise but found their way around Yang, pulling her close to deepen the kiss. Her tongue grazed over his lips, he opened them without question.
Yang's heartbeat was going what felt like a mile a minute. Her left hand trailed down the side of his face to his neck as their tongues danced together, then down to his chest. The muscle from his training becoming suddenly quite obvious. As soon as her fingers graced his abs, he broke away, Yang wanted to pull him back in and kiss him but she froze.
"Uh…..Yang….your hand is…..kinda close…." he said, his cheeks turning a shade pink. Not getting handsy with Yang was like trying to navigate a minefield, and so far he managed to navigate it pretty well, but this was the first she had…...entered his feild.
Yang's lilac eyes looked down at her hand, "I know….." she said, her heartbeat getting even more fast.
"Oh…" Jake stated.
Is…..is this happening? No I'm dreaming, I gotta be dreaming, no way we're- Jake thought before he realized their situation. Two Young adults in a room, alone, at night.
Oh my god…..
"Are…..are you sure?" He asked, his mind barely registering what was happening. If it were any other guy he was sure that their clothes would be off by now but….Jake knew Yang, she's brash but not completely impulsive. She gets an idea of what to do and does it, the details usually work themselves out.
But Yang was nervous, and that was cause for question.
The young woman took a deep breath, "Yeah…..I mean I think so." she said before shaking her head, "Look….we've been dating for more than five months…..I mean…..we should….right?" she asked, a little bit of fear in her voice. It wasn't completely the act itself that was making her nervous, more so it was talking to Jake about it face to face like this.
Jake scratched the back of his head, "I dunno…..I mean it's not like we're in a normal relationship. What with the saving the world and whatnot?" he asked, trying to get Yang to smile a little bit. The blonde briefly smirked, "But…...i don't thinks it's so much that we should…..it's more…..do you want to?" he asked.
Yang had to take a moment to think, she had come to his room, the city even, with every intention for them to share this…but now….
"I'm nervous." she admitted, letting out a small chuckle. "Oh my god I can't believe I'm nervous about this, it's me! I make sex jokes all the time just to make Weiss mad." she said exasperatedly. It was like she couldn't ride bumblebee even though she took care of it herself.
Jake smiled, "Hey I'm nervous too…..I mean….look at you." he said, holding his hands out to her. "You look like the girl that people don't think exist because you're too good to be true! Look at you! Your hair! Your eyes! Half the time in with you I think of how lucky I am to even know you, let alone date you." he admitted, causing Yang's cheeks to redden at the flattery.
She knew she was attractive, hell she was more than happy to show off her assets from time to time, but hearing what Jake had to say…..well it made sense as to why he was nervous. "It's just…...I don't want us doing this to screw what we have up." Yang admitted.
The young man smiled as he reached out and took her hands in his, "It won't screw us up….in fact…..I think it could make things better." he proposed shyly, his cheeks turning red.
Yang's cheeks mirrored his, "Ok…..but if this freaks you out," she raised the arm he made her, "then say so and we'll stop. Ok?" she asked.
"Same for you if I…..do something wrong." he said before smiling a little bit. "Also, you have super strength, if you can control that, then metal hand should be no problem." he said reassuringly, making Yang smile. In theory she actually could do more damage with her natural hand than her prosthetic.
"So…...how do we start this?" she asked.
Jake felt his throat go dry, "I…..I guess we….um…...take off our…...clothes." he muttered, obviously anxious about what they were about to do. Yang gulped down some air as she nodded, Jake went first out of courtesy to her. Pulling his shirt up, Yang got her first look at him shirtless.
She was not disappointed.
Jake didn't have abs anywhere near the level that Sun had them, but he did some muscle on his midsection. His pectorals were also defined fairly well, but what had gotten Yang's attention were his arms.
She was strong, she could lift a car and punch it at a Grim. But Jake? His biceps looked like they could bend steel. With how he was able to throw his shield around it shouldn't have come as a surprise, but he always wore long sleeves to cover himself.
Jake reached hot the rim of his pajama bottoms and quickly got them off, leaving him in his black boxer shorts. Yang could feel her chest tighten, "You ok?" he asked. "We can stop if-" he started before she quickly grabbed her shirt and pulled it over her head and through her hair before tossing it off to the side.
Jake's face was beat red, he locked eyes with Yang, trying hard not to steal glances at the violet bra that covered her breasts but to little avail. Seeing him like that actually calmed a Yang down a little. "Are you ok?" she asked with a bit of teasing in her voice. He gave a nod, "Good." she said as she slipped her shorts off, revealing the purple panties. "Still doing good?" she asked.
Jake was about ready to have a heart attack. But it wasn't from anxiety, it was from anticipation.
Yang looked Jake over and blushed, "Um…..can you….can you turn around?" she asked with some timidness. Jake nodded before turning himself around to face away from Yang, letting out a shaky breath of relief.
Yang reached behind her back and found the bra clasp, her hands were both shaking, anticipation and nervousness causing it to happen.
When she heard the click, she slowly peeled the bra off her skin, letting it fall off the bed. Yang took a deep breath, "Ok…..you can look." she said, her voice just above a whisper.
Jake turned around, and his heart skipped a beat, "I…...I…...I…." he couldn't finish his sentence at the sight of her breasts. Yang couldn't help but feel a little prideful of her effect on him.
Moving closer to him, she leaned in and kissed him on the mouth. Pulling away, she smiled, "You know….you can touch them if you want." she said, her hand reaching out and grasping his wrist and leading it to her right breast. As his fingers brushed over her flesh, Yang sucked in a small breath.
Jake gently squeezed the breast, causing Yang to let out a small moan. "Ahhhh….d-do that again." she breathed out, Jake obeyed, moving in closer so she was sitting in his lap. His fingers brushed over her nipples, making her hum out a pleasure filled moan as her head craned back.
Jake leaned forward, kissing her neck as he groped her ample chest. "O-oh! God d-don't stop!" she yelled out, causing Jake to cover her mouth with his hand. They needed to be quiet as they could be as to not wake anyone up.
Yang grabbed his hand and put it back on her breast, "Don't stop." she pleaded.
Jake complied, one of his hands continued to tease her left nipple while the other wrapped around her waistline, allowing her to craned her upper body back so he could do even more.
Her moans were what drove him, a gasp when he cupped her tit, a long sigh when he found a vein in her neck to suck on. All the while Jake himself was stiffening against Yang's thigh.
When she felt something like against her inner thigh her thigh she stopped him. Looking down, she fixated on the tent that now stood in his lap. "Well it looks like you're enjoying yourself."
Jake glanced down at Yang's body, she was covered in sweat and had a few love marks on her collar from him. And the front of her panties were a little damp as well, "You too." he stated with a small smile of pride.
Yang blushed a little but felt her confidence go up when he leaned in and kissed her full on the lips. Yang's hands pushed against his chest, leaning into him they fell down against the bed, her lips kissing his again.
Lifting herself back up, she looked down at Jake. She looped her thumbs through the strings of her panties and pulled it down, exposing her sacred area to Jake.
The young man stated at the shaven mound and small pink slit, looking down at himself he mirrored her actions, pulling his boxers down before kicking them off. Now it was Yang's turn to stare, it wasn't ridiculously big thank god but…..she had seen porn, she knows where she was supposed to put it and….it was still intimidating.
Reaching down, she touched the head of the member, making Jake seize up completely as he grew even more stiff. Yang leaned her upper body down until her chest was pressed up against his, "I'm going to put it in, ok?" she asked.
Jake nodded, reaching for her hand and giving it a squeeze as she used her other hand to line herself up with the shaft. As soon as the tip pressed against her lips, Yang felt a shock of pleasure go through her. She slipped a little, causing his entire head to go in at once, "Oh fuck!" she yelled out, burying her head into his shoulder.
She slowly lowered herself further down his shaft, her walls were divine given form to Jake. When he felt a barrier, he waited for Yang.
"Aw fuck it." she growled out, slamming her hips down and getting the pain over with. It wasn't the worst hit she ever took obviously, but it still fucking hurt.
Her teeth sunk into Jake's shoulder as her hand held his with a vice grip. Jake hissed, "Shit babe…" he whispered.
When Yang let go of his flesh, she looked at him with a coy smile. "Babe huh?" she asked, moving her hips up slightly, "Mmmh, say it again." she hummed out as her hips slowly moved up and down with his shaft still buried deep within her.
Jake craned his head back as pleasure traveled through him, "Ooohhhh fuck babe." he groaned out as his hips bucked into her.
Yang had to bite her lips shut to stop herself from gasping. "Y-Y-you can't do that if you want me to be quiet." she shuttered out as she slowed herself down.
"Fuck quiet." Jake stated plainly before sitting up and smashing his lips onto her's, while using his thighs to lift Yang up a little to slam back into his lap, making her moan into his mouth.
Pulling away, Jake swore her eyes flashed red, "Fuck quiet and screw me." she ordered, falling back as well pulling him upright so he was over him. Her legs wrapped around his waist in a vice, locking him in place with his cock inside her canal.
Yang's eyes were what he believed to be one of the most beautiful parts of her. But seeing them red like that? It was driving him nuts.
Jake's hands clamped down on her hips and pulled back before thrusting forward into Yang, making the blonde moan loudly into the air as he went in and out of her pussy, "Oh! God yes!" she moaned loudly without a care of who heard her.
Her hands groped her own breasts, her breath was ragged, as Jake continued to thrust into her he started to lean down, kissing her on the mouth as she moaned. Pulling away a trail of saliva connected their lips together, "Ahh, I'm gonna-" Yang started.
Her velvet walls were holding onto his cock in a vice, they convulsed, making his dick for all it was worth as she came, "AHHHHH FUCK!" she screamed as her orgasm shook through her entire body.
Jake slowed his thrusts to a stop, watching as the blonde wrote in pleasure beneath him. Yang's eyes had returned to her lilac color, " *pant* *pant* Oh my god that *pant* *pant* was…..oh my god." she breathed out.
Jake's hand skid over her abdomen and up to her chest where he cupped the underside of her breasts, "Mmmmmhhh…..Jake…..are you finished?" she asked, as his fingers brushed against her pink nubs, making her stifle a moan.
Jake shook his head, "No….but I'm pretty close." he admitted, the pressure in his balls being very apparent.
Yang slowly lifted herself up, using her arms to prop herself up, she wrapped one arm around Jake's shoulders and pulled herself in to kiss him. Her other hand traveled down to his crotch, she slowly pulled Jake out of her, causing him to moan into her mouth. Her fluids spilled out onto the sheets, "Mmmmhh, looks like I made a mess." she whispered, kissing her way to his ear.
Her hand grasped the shaft with enough force to be comfortable for both of them before she started to pull back and forth on it, causing Jake to go river as Yang's hand pumped his cum covered cock. "That's it baby. Cum for me." Yang whispered, finally sending him over the edge.
His head spurted out onto her hand, thighs and pelvis. Yang fell forward onto Jake, the pair covered in each other's fluids breathed hard from the lovemaking.
Jake's hand reached for the sheets of the bed, managing to pull them overtop the two. Yang's cheek laid against his, her herself trying to get her breathing back to normal. "Why…..in the name of God…..did we wait so long to do that?" she asked between breaths with a smirk.
Jake chuckled, "I blame Cinder. I saw we blame it all on Cinder." he said, making Yang giggle as she nuzzled her body into a more comfortable position.
Yang was radiating warmth like a blanket, a hot, sweaty, beautiful blanket. "Yeah I can live with that." Yang said, lifting her head up a little to look at him. A sly smile appeared on her face, "You think anyone heard us?" she asked.
Jake breathed out a breath he realized he was holding, "Oooh God I think the whole damn building heard you." he said.
"Me? You were getting a more than a little noisy yourself there." she replied, her hand trailing up her lover's chest and to the side of of his cheek, turning him to face her, she pressed her lips against his, kissing him again.
Breaking the kiss, Jake smiled, "True. But you're the screamer." he pointed out before kissing her on the nose.
The blonde smiled with pride, "I don't hear any disappointment in that." she noticed, a predatory look gleaming in her eyes. "So next time, and there will be a next rim believe me, if you want to be quiet, then we'll have to find another way." she said, Jake smirking back at her.
"I can be creative." he stated, his hand going down her back and to her lower back. His hand grasped her rear, making Yang let out a hum. "Very creative." he insisted as Yang moved her face in front of his.
"I don't doubt that. And your hands are the only ones allowed to touch me anywhere." she said, pecking him on the nose. "But no butt stuff…...yet." she added, showing that she was at least open to the idea of being a little creative as well as making Jake blush red.
"Deal…...so are you tired as I am?" he asked, laying further back into the pillow.
"Oh hell yeah. Tired and sore." she said, her head falling down beside his. "I was going to sneak back into Blake's room…..but this is very comfortable." she said, snuggling closer to Jake.
Jake hymned out a sound of agreement, "She probably heard us too with those ears or hers." he muttered. Yang smiled out of his sight, she was going to tell Blake how it went regardless. "So…..everything ok?" Jake asked.
Yang smiled. "Everything's perfect."
(000)
Jake's eyes blinked open, lifting his head up slightly before letting his head fall back against the pillow. Yang was still laying on top of him, sound asleep and snoring lightly. The fact that they are both naked also made it better.
Jake's hand combed through her hair slowly, he'd seen what happened when you mess with her hair and he didn't want to make her mad. Especially when she was had access to his family jewels and could crush them, but she also had a freaking metal arm now. Though in all fairness the latter was his own fault.
"Pull any out and your sex life takes a major turn." Yang muttered as she lifted her head and smirked at him. "And I don't mean anything kinky." she added with a wink.
"Yeah I just about figured." he said, looking over to the clock on his bedside. "So….the rush to the shower here gets nuts since we only got one bathroom. You wanna share?" he offered.
Yang's eyes twinkled with a hint of lust. "Are we just going to be washing each other? Or will there be-" she sat up so he could get a clear view of her bare chest, "-other things to do?" she asked teasingly.
"As amazing as that sounds, we can't. Bathroom is the door by the living room. If they didn't hear us last night then they'll hear every peep of us in there." he explained, causing the blonde to pout a little. Jake's hands slims down her sides to her ass and gave it a firm squeeze, causing the young woman to squeak, "But don't worry, I'll tend to your needs later." he said, causing her to giggle.
Rolling off Jake, Yang climbed out of the bed and stretched her limbs out, popping a few cramps before bending over to retrieve her clothes, smirking as she gave Jake a very good view of her rear end, "Like what you see?" she asked, noticing him staring at her.
"I never said this before, but you got a great ass."
"Thank you."
"Why do you wear that word cape skirt thing again?" he asked.
Yang looked at him with confusion, "Cape skirt?"
"Isn't that what you call it?" Jake asked.
Yang rolled her eyes, "fashion later. Shower now." she stated, using her clothes to cover up her front as Jake gathered his and followed her to the door. After triple checking to make sure no one was awake yet, they rushed to the bathroom and closed the door behind them before dropping their clothes and getting in the shower.
The shower was one of the more fancier models, having multiple shower heads. It had a sliding door that was tinged so no one could see inside as well so no one could see the occupant. Or occupants in this case. Yang turned on the knob, causing a stream of water to spray out onto them both. "Ahhhhh, oh god I needed this." she said, leaning back against Jake's back as he too enjoyed the feeling of hot water.
"Yep. Thank goodness I made your arm waterproof. And the skin too." he said, Yang nodding in agreement at his words. As they let the warm water go over their bodies, Jake grasped Yang's hand, "I love you." he stated.
Yang smiled, "I love you too." she said before craning her head back and letting out a grown. "It's gonna suck when Beacon gets cleared out and we have to live in separate rooms." she stated, causing Jake to nod in agreement.
"I'll leave my window unlocked." he said jokingly.
"No you will not, if Sun or Neptune can get up there, then anyone can." she said, thinking to how easily the partners got to their dorm last semester. "I may be open minded, but what we do isn't for anyone else to see…...unless they walk in on us then it's out of our hands." she said.
"Ok then…..how about we find a little….love nest?" he suggested. Yang turned her head to look at him. "There's probably a few little places you and I can…..meet up at….and…" he trying to think of a polite euphemism but couldn't find one.
Yang leaned over and pecked him on the cheek, "A little home away from home? I like it." she stated, turning around and pressing herself against Jake's back, her arms wrapping around his neck. "Our own little spot, we're going to have to find a bed."
"How do we do that?" He asked.
"Burn that bridge when we get to it. Now, are you going to help me wash myself? Or am I going to have to do that myself?" she asked, reaching for a bar of soap and grabbing it. Handing it to Jake, he turned around and looked Yang over, the blonde smirking at his expression. "Soap. Not sex. Remember?" She reminded him.
"Oh I remember, kinda wishing neither of us did though." he replied. Yang grinned before turning around, pulling her hair over her shoulder do that he could wash her back. Running the soap up and down her back, suds began to cover her skin. He stopped at her lower back, one thing would lead to another and they'd be in here for-
"Oh crap." he muttered in realization.
Yang looked back at him, "What? What is it?" she asked.
The sound of the door opening made Yang shut up. Weiss had made up a timetable for the seven of them to use the shower in the morning like RWBY had at Beacon. And it was her time to have it first.
Weiss entered the bathroom, somewhat agitated to find the shower already going. "Yang I know you're in there." she said, having already guessed who it was after hearing her muffled voice from the other side of the door.
Yang slid the door open ever so slightly to look out at her, the blonde put on a smile and laughed a little. "Sorry Weiss. I uhh….didn't know you had a schedule here too." she apologized.
The heiress waved her off, "I should have told you. But hurry up, your boyfriend gets in after I do and he gets impatient." she said, making the blonde's face drop.
"Um…...that may not be a problem." she said, deciding to accept her situation.
Weiss have her a strange look before Jake's head poked out above Yang's "Um…..hey Weiss." he greeted heiress's face turned red as her partner's cape, she sputtered out a few syllables before rushing out the door and slamming it shut. "This is the first kiss all over again isn't it?" the young man asked, Yang simply nodding in agreement.
"Yep…...so you wanna do my front now?" Yang asked, feeling that the idea of a romantic shower had just died.
(000)
"I can't-you two-how could-I don't even-how dare-my schedule!" Weiss sputtered out to the couple sitting on the couch, still a little damp from the shower. Jake was honest to Oum embarrassed, Yang on the other hand was trying to keep a straight face.
Weiss had asked everyone not to disturb them while her scolding was in progress. God forbid Ruby finds out and rats them out to their dad.
"Aw come on Weiss. We're both adults here, and to be fair you didn't tell me about your little shower schedule." Yang pointed out, deciding to act on their behalf. Which was smart considering Jake couldn't do much as look up at Weiss.
The heiress's face turned red from rage and embarrassment, "IN. THE. SHOWER!"
"...well technically it was on his bed." Yang said, pointing to Jake who let his head fall into his hands.
Weiss held her breath before exhaling it. "Please. For the love of dust and all that it has given us, tell me you two were…..protected." she said, covering her face with her hand at the last part.
Jake's eyes widened, he didn't have any protection, and there was so much of….him that Yang could-
"Got it covered. Picked up some Instant Birth Control before I left." Yang said, raising her hand proudly, much to Jake's relief.
"Hold on. You planned on us-"
"No! No talking about it! You do not talk about THAT in public!" Weiss interrupted, making the two stiffen at her tone. "If you want to do it behind closed doors? That's fine, but the moment you two talk about your coitus out in the open is the moment I put my foot down!" she shouted, a glyph appearing behind her with a large armored hand popping out it it.
"Are. We. Clear?" she asked, the summon behind her cracking its knuckles. The couple nodded, calming the heiress down. "Good. I'm going to get in the shower. You two are making breakfast." she stated, the summon disappearing as Weiss walked towards the bathroom.
"...we must never piss her off. Ever." Jake stated, Yang nodding beside him. "So…...bacon and eggs?" he suggested.
Yang smiled, "Scrambled?"
"Scrambled." Jakes said with a nod. Yang poured her lips out, "You can take care of the bacon. I'll take care of the eggs." he said smiling.
Yang grinned before getting up from the couch. She loved bacon. As the lovers got back to work, standing side by side on the stove, Jake wrapped a arm around her waist and pulled her in close. It was good to be together again.
AN: So yep, to live and love in Atlas right? Atlas is actually on the northernmost content in RWBY so it constantly has snow. And I also found out its actually very close to Vale, just across the ocean.
So RWBY probably won't be doing a time skip, the most time will past may be a week or two, maybe a month. Which also reinforces the theory of Pheonix yang, given that it could take months to make a robot arm.
Now next chapter…...we get some good old fansioned payback :)
