Hey Arieko, I told you I would get this done by Monday ;D.
And for the purposes of this story, Canada is a region in Vacuo, not a country, due to this story being set in Remnant.
There would be no race this weekend, so Ruby and the other drivers could do whatever they wanted. However, most decided to use the time to work on their cars with their teams, so that they could work out a good setup for the Emerald Forest Grand Prix.
Ruby walked into the garage, and nodded to two of her mechanics, Gavin and Ray, before walking over to where Ozpin was waiting with the car.
"So, what are we doing today?" asked Ruby.
"Well," said Ozpin. "We need to fit some new brakes to the car today, and they should increase the brake responsiveness. We're just waiting for Michael to bring the package, but he won't be here for another hour. You can do what you wish until then."
Ruby nodded. "Great! I'll see you guys later then."
She walked out of the garage, and looked left and right. She saw Victoria, who had put her hair in a bun, and she was walking towards her and Vincent's garage.
"Vicky!" called out Ruby as she ran after the black-haired girl.
The said girl turned around and her face lit up into a smile as she saw who had called her name.
"Hey Ruby," she said with a cheery wave. "You working on the car today?"
"Yup!" said Ruby. "But we're waiting for some new parts to come, so I'm just kinda wandering around..."
Victoria nodded. "Cool... Say, do you want to come to my garage and meet Vincent and my team?"
Ruby smiled and nodded eagerly. "That would be great! I love meeting new people!"
"Really?" asked Victoria with a smirk.
"Uhh... Kind of..." said Ruby with a nervous laugh.
Victoria grabbed Ruby's hand and lead her over to Team VV's garage, where there were several mechanics adjusting the rear wing position on Victoria's car. On the other side, Vincent was leaning on his car drinking soda, and he waved when Victoria walked in.
"Well if it isn't the infamous Ruby Rose," he said with a smirk. "Nice to meet you, name's Vincent Marsh." He held out his hand for Ruby to shake.
Ruby smiled and said hi and shook Vincent's hand. "You're from Canada aren't you?" she asked excitedly. "I love the accents!"
Vincent chuckled. "That I am."
"Where did you get that soda from?" asked Victoria as she leaned on the car, next to Vincent.
"Not telling you," he said with a smirk.
"Come on you loser," said Victoria, who gave him a nudge.
Vincent just smirked more and mimed himself zipping his lips.
"Ugh, you knob," said Victoria with a huff, and she looked at Ruby. "See what I have to put up with?"
Ruby suppressed a giggle as Victoria got up.
"Need the toilet," she said, before walking out of the garage.
Vincent waited until she walked out, and grinned after he revealed another can of soda, to Ruby's surprise. "Want one Ruby?"
Ruby giggled and took the can, and opened it, before swigging half of it in one go.
By the time Victoria had come back, Ruby and Vincent had finished their cans and had thrown them away. The two tried to keep a straight face, but Ruby accidentally gave an involuntary giggle, and Victoria cottoned on pretty fast at what they were laughing about.
"Hand it over Vince," she said with a smirk.
"I only had two, sorry Vicky," he replied.
"Asshole," she said, giving him a gentle smack on the head, and she walked off to her car.
"I love doing that," said Vincent with a chuckle.
Ruby giggled, and soon, the two had gotten into a conversation about anything to do with Formula One, with Vincent explaining what life was like back in Canada.
"And then this crazy ass bull comes out of nowhere, but I picked up a board of wood nearby, and bashed that sucker on the head, like BAM!"
He struck his fist down, as if replaying the action.
Ruby giggled at Vincent's behaviour for what felt like the twentieth time. Time had passed quickly while they talked, and eventually Ruby had to go back to her own garage, and she waved goodbye to Victoria and Vincent, and made her way back to Team RW's garage.
Almost a week had passed, and after six long days working at the garage, Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang decided that they would once again stay in to watch a movie together. Ruby was stuffing cookies into her mouth, snuggled close to Weiss, who occasionally gently scolded Ruby for talking with her mouth full. Blake sat in front of Yang, the blonde's legs wrapped around her waist, and Yang was unconsciously scratching behind the Faunus' cat ears, but Blake didn't seem to mind.
They had chosen an action film this time, and they all had to admit it was ten times better than the crappy rom-com they watched last time.
Ruby watched mesmorised as the main character, a girl with a red cloak and a scythe, cut through the enemy without a problem. "I wish I was like her..."
Weiss scoffed. "Don't be silly you dunce, this isn't real..."
Ruby pouted. "So what? I'd love to be badass like that!"
"Ruby, you know you're not allowed to say anything with 'ass' in it," cut in Yang.
Ruby stuck out her tongue at Yang, before deciding not to say anything, and to just lean in close to Weiss. The white haired girl responded by pulling her even closer.
Although it was really exhilarating, and a great experience, Formula One driving was actually very stressful, and Ruby found that the banter the four girls had was a good way of relieving that stress, where they could just talk and not worry about anything.
Soon, the film had finished, and Yang and Blake excused themselves quickly, giggling as they walked out of the room. Ruby swore she could have seen Yang pinch Blake's rear. She looked to Weiss, and realised that her girlfriend had fallen asleep. Her smile widened, and she gently let herself out of Weiss' grasp, and laid the former heiress down on the sofa.
She didn't want to wake her up, because she just looked so peaceful and cute when she was asleep. Ruby grinned and laid in front of Weiss, facing her, wrapping her teammate's arms around her, and she snuggled up so that her head rested under Weiss' chin, and her face was resting on Weiss' chest. Ruby looked at her sleeping partner one more time, a wide smile on her face.
"Night Weiss..."
Ruby quickly succumbed to sleep herself.
Weiss awoke, blinking several times, and she yawned, and tried to stretch, but found that she had her arms wrapped around something else. Or someone else...
She looked down, and to her surprise, she had her arms wrapped around Ruby's waist, and the girl herself had done the same to Weiss. Weiss smiled at how cute and peaceful Ruby looked when she slept. She would have tried to free herself from Ruby's grasp, but she realised that she didn't want the moment to end. So she was just content with staying where she was, taking in Ruby's warmth.
She found the slow and soft breathing of the younger girl calming, and Weiss closed her eyes happily. Not long after this, she felt Ruby begin to stir, and she opened her eyes, and giggled as the younger girl let out an adorable yawn.
"Oh, morning Weiss," said Ruby groggily.
"Morning," said Weiss with a smirk.
Ruby slowly withdrew her arms from Weiss, and stretched, letting out another adorable yawn, making Weiss giggle again. Ruby pouted slightly at this, but she didn't realise that it just made her look even cuter, and Weiss giggled for a third time.
Weiss let Ruby free from her grasp, and the younger girl rolled off the sofa and on to the floor, before lifting herself off from the ground.
"Is that always how you wake up?" asked Weiss with small chuckle.
"Well, I don't normally wake up snuggled next to a beautiful girl," retorted Ruby, and she grinned as Weiss became flustered and failed to form coherent words.
Weiss just eventually settled on a huff, and Ruby giggled, before pulling her up forcibly. "Come on Weissy, we've got practice today!"
Weiss groaned as she found her feet. "What was that for you dolt?"
"We've got P1 and P2 today! We need to be there in..." She looked at the clock. "Three hours."
"Fine, fine," grumbled Weiss as she followed Ruby into the kitchen, where Blake was sat at the table reading a book, and Yang was cooking bacon.
"Well, the lovebirds are finally awake," teased Yang.
"Speak for yourself," retorted Ruby with a smirk, as she sat down at the table across from Blake.
"Oh, and by the way, the position you guys were in last night... It was too cute to not take a photo... I bet Chen would like to see this," said Yang with a giggle and a wink.
"Yang!" groaned Ruby. She had no problem about people knowing about Weiss' and her's relationship, but she didn't relish the prospect of being teased mercilessly by her older brother.
"She didn't really, she was just trying to wind you up," said Blake, not looking up from her book.
"Blake!" said Yang with a sigh. "You're no fun..."
"That's not what you were saying last night," replied Blake, a smirk playing on her lips.
"Too much information!" said Ruby quickly, covering her ears.
'She's just too freaking innocent!' thought Yang to herself with a grin.
Weiss rolled her eyes at the banter going back and forth, and finished up her cereal.
"You having any bacon Ice Queen?" asked Yang, as she set down a plate full of bacon.
"Don't call me that! And no, you add far too much grease to your bacon!"
"That's what makes it so good though!" exclaimed Ruby, as she put four slices of bacon on her own plate.
Weiss just huffed and got up from the table. "I'll be back in a second."
"Well, more for Ruby and me then!" said Yang with a grin, as she put eight slices of bacon on her plate.
"How do you manage?" asked Blake with a smirk, finally looking up from her book.
Yang shrugged with a mouth full of bacon.
"Okay, we have a flight to Beacon in two hours," said Ruby. "We'll arrive there at about eight o' clock at night, and check into a hotel not far from the Emerald Forest."
"Is it five star?" asked Yang.
Ruby rolled her eyes. "Yes Yang," she sighed. "It is a five star..."
"Alright!" said Yang, putting a fist into the air.
"Idiot."
There were flashing cameras as the four girls arrived in the arrival lounge.
"Ugh, damn people can't leave us alone for ten minutes," complained Yang.
Weiss was still technically part of the Schnee family, and therefore the Schnee Company, although she was no longer the Heiress. This meant that she could still arrange for a limo to pick the four girls up.
"Snazzy!" said Yang, as she literally jumped into the limo, taking up three seats.
"Be careful you brute," snapped Weiss, but she did have a smile on her face.
Yang looked in awe at her surroundings. "Ooh, what does this button do?"
Without waiting for an answer, she pressed it, and the table in the centre flipped over, revealing drinks and snacks. "Awesome!"
Ruby looked at Weiss. "Sorry about Yang..."
Weiss sighed. "Well, what can you do?"
She sat down, as far away from the rowdy Yang as possible, and Ruby eagerly followed, sitting next to her. Blake sat next to Yang, trying to calm her girlfriend down.
Ruby eyed the packet of cookies on the table. Weiss noticed and rolled her eyes. "Go on then..."
"Yay! Thank you!" said Ruby happily, and she reached forward, snatching the packet of cookies and tearing it open, trying to stuff two into her mouth at once.
"You dolt," said Weiss with a sigh, and picked up a cookie that Ruby had dropped.
"Sorry," came Ruby's muffled reply.
"Here," said Weiss, holding out a cookie to Ruby and putting it in front of her mouth. "Eat slowly."
Ruby nodded and took a bite out of the cookie, while Weiss was holding it up.
Yang and Blake smirked at each other. The sight of Weiss actually feeding Ruby cookies was adorable and hilarious.
Ruby and Weiss blushed furiously, and the younger girl grabbed the rest of the cookie from Weiss, and ate it in one.
This only served to make the other two start laughing, as it was just even more adorable. Weiss rolled her eyes.
"I suppose it did look rather cute," she said.
"Cute?" asked Yang with a wide grin. "It was freaking adorable!"
Weiss rolled her eyes again. "Blake, could you please stop her?"
Blake smirked. "Sorry, no can do, the idiot's right for once."
"Hey!" said Yang, pouting. "That's it, no snuggling tonight kitty!"
"What? I did back you up!"
"Yeah, but you didn't have to call me names."
Weiss cringed at the thought of what Yang meant by snuggling, and she looked at Ruby, who seemed to be thinking the same thing.
Soon enough, the limo had arrived at the hotel that they were staying at, and the four of them got out of the car, wheeling their small suitcases. They walked in to a rather posh reception area, where they were given the card for their room. Ruby and Yang quickly bolted up the stairs, seeing who could get to the room first. Blake and Weiss gave each other sympathetic looks, as they made their way, much more calmly, to their room.
By the time they had reached there, Ruby and Yang had already taken the big bunk bed in the bedroom. There were two other single beds, and Blake and Weiss took those.
"I just need the toilet!" said Ruby, who quickly dashed out of the room.
Weiss decided that she needed to go too, and she left the room, and as soon as she did, Blake and Yang gave each other a grin, and then they began 'snuggling'.
Weiss walked down the corridor, and heard Ruby's voice up ahead. She turned the corner, and saw Ruby talking with that new driver, Victoria Urshman. She walked up to the two girls, who both seemed to be in an animated conversation. Ruby turned around and saw Weiss, and her grin widened.
"Weiss! This is Victoria, Victoria, this is my... girlfriend Weiss!"
The two girls greeted each other with smiles, and Ruby was relieved that Victoria didn't seem to mind their same-sex relationship.
Weiss couldn't help but notice that Ruby and Victoria seemed close, which was strange, as she thought Victoria would be a potential rival to Ruby. She felt something else too. Jealousy?
'Don't be stupid Weiss, they're just friends.'
Yet when she followed Ruby to the bathroom, she still couldn't shake that feeling.
N'aww, Weiss getting jealous is adorable :3 Possible love triangle? Or is it just Weiss being... Weiss?
