"Ruby, I think Yang knows about us."

"Hmm?"

"Your sister knows that we're dating."

"I'll tell her not to murder you. How do you know?"

"She just texted me saying that she knows my 'little secret'."

"That could be any number of things." Ruby took off her glasses and looked at Blake. The young woman was sprawled all across her bed, her bow hanging precariously off of one ear.

"She's been looking at me really weird for the past week and a half."

"I haven't noticed."

"That's because you're extremely unobservant. I was crushing on you-"

"Oh here we go again."

"-for two months before I asked you out and you didn't have a clue."

"Blake, will you ever let that one go?"

"Never."

Ruby sighed. She tensed her legs and felt her Semblance jolt her into Blake's bed.

"STOP DOING THAT." Blake yelped. She almost fell off her bed, but Ruby grabbed her 'round the waist.

"Make me." Ruby said. Blake growled.

"Now you've gone and done it." Blake pulled Ruby's head close to her own and placed multiple kisses on the younger girl's neck and cheeks. Ruby giggled the whole time.

"Blaaaaake."

"No!"

"Well, this is a surprise." Weiss's cool voice cut through the air. Ruby and Blake sprang apart.

"Um, it isn't what it looks like?" Ruby said innocently. Weiss shut the door behind her and crawled on top of her own bed.

"You two have been dating secretly and you made out a little just now, which is disturbing, but predictable. Yang will be extremely upset with Blake if she finds out." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. Ruby and Blake looked at each other in slight panic.

"Which is why I won't tell her anything. Just don't be smooching with me around. I don't think I could handle being around another public couple. Ren and Nora are enough." Weiss closed her eyes and sighed.

"We'll just...go." Blake said.

"By all means, stay. I just don't wanna hear any kissing sounds or anything like that. I'd like to rest without nightmares for once." Weiss said, a little bit of an edge in her voice. Ruby hopped back to her own bed, and picked up her comic again.

"Good idea, Ruby." Weiss rustled her blankets. Ruby looked at Blake and shrugged. Blake frowned. The door opened and Jaune burst in.

"Ruby, have you finished the new X-Ray and Vav?" He asked.

"Not yet, but the Mad King made out with Vav. It was rather graphic." Ruby replied.

"What?! NO. X-RAY AND VAV HAVE TO BE TOGETHER." Jaune yelled. Weiss conjured a glyph and shut the door in his face. "Ow!"

"I hate all of you." Weiss grumbled.

"Ruby, dear, shall we go somewhere else?" Blake asked.

"Yes, let's." Ruby hurried out of her bed, and opened the door for Blake. They left the room quite quickly, tripping over Jaune laying on the floor, clutching his possibly broken nose.

"Sorry, Jaune. She seems to be a bit testy today. Have you seen Yang?"

"Nah. Nora wanted to chill with her earlier, but she couldn't find her. I think my nose is really messed up."

"Yeah, you might wanna set some ice on it."

"How ironic." Blake said. Ruby snickered. Jaune was quite a lot less enthused.

"I'm gonna go ask Pyrrha to set my nose back in place." Jaune stumbled toward his room, pulled out his scroll and unlocked the door, then disappeared inside.

"Well, that doesn't narrow down the places where she isn't." Blake frowned.

"Technically, that list is gigantic." Ruby pointed out.

"Fair point. Grr, Weiss is such a pest."

"It's not her fault she sucks so much. I blame her dad."

"True." A scream rang out from JNPR's room. "Way to go, Pyrrha."

"Oh, Blaaaaaaake." Blake's ears flattened as Yang approached them. "Can I talk to you for a second?"

"Just me?" Blake asked.

"Yeah. Actually, Ruby, this chat needs to be kinda private. Go bug Weiss."

"Oh. I'm just gonna go to the library." Ruby turned and basically ran away.

...

Blake watched her girlfriend leave with dismay.

"Sooo, that dirty little secret, Blake." Yang said.

"Yeah, was really hoping you wouldn't find out about that."

"Too bad. So, what do you have to say for yourself?"

"Sorry?"

"That wasn't what I was going for, but okay. I mean, it's kinda messed up. Like, really?"

"Okay, I'm sorry. I like her and she likes me and you know what happens when two people like each other."

"Wait, what? What are you talking about?"

"Me and Ruby. Oh shit."

"I was talking about when you think you're alone and you pull out Ninjas of Love and...Never mind that, you and Ruby?!"

"Aw shit."

"Damn it, Blake!"

"I'm sorry, Yang!"

Yang pulled back an arm, and Blake flinched. She felt Yang's arms wrap around her.

"I'm not angry, just surprised. Be good to her, or I will get a little angry."

"Yes ma'am."

"And seriously, bring Ninjas of Love elsewhere. That's weird."
