Okay, at this point I've got at least six people reviewing for another chapter, with about twelve followers who clearly want more chapters.

So, as promised, here's chapter two, with chapter three well on the way!

*Update* Version 1.2 of this chapter, did a bit of grammar/spelling combing as I said in Chapter 8's A/N. Hopefully I got it all.

Warm.

Ruby let out a long yawn as she stretched her pyjama-clad arms and legs under the soft duvet of her bed. Light gently fell upon her closed eyes, like the welcoming call of a brand new day. She relaxed in her bed, glad that it was finally the weekend, her lectures for this week over. It was a weird dream last night, but-

Wait. No.

That wasn't a dream.

Ruby sat bolt upright in her bed, her mind snapping from blissful sleepiness to full alert. She quickly looked down at Weiss' bed, and saw the heiress sleeping soundly in her own bed, her normally pristine white hair forming a tangled mess under her head and shoulders. She was smiling in her sleep, okay, a small smile, but it was definitely a smile. Ruby felt herself blush as the memory of what she'd done with her last night surged forth in her mind.

She'd been... what did you even call what had happened in the bathroom? It'd been Ruby and Weiss, kissing, and then Weiss trapped her, kept kissing, and then started going further and further, until she started... touching herself and Ruby. She...

Ruby reached down under her covers and felt her left leg, the one Ruby knew for a fact that Weiss had been... riding, yeah, let's go with that.

Parts of her leg felt dry, like that one time Ruby had spilled super glue all over her arm. Dad was not happy, that was for sure.

No! Focus, Ruby!

She ducked her head under the covers, and rolled up her... wait a second, hadn't she been naked when Weiss had... finished her?

Ruby paused, thinking back.

Weiss had finished, they both had, then Ruby had started falling asleep, and Weiss had picked her up and was carrying her... howe on Remnant she had managed that Ruby would never know, but then it was all a blank. She'd blacked out, gone straight to sleep.

Did Weiss put her pyjamas on her? While she was sleepwalking? While Ruby was asleep?

No.

There was no way.

But there was no other way to explain it.

Ruby rolled up her pyjama trouser leg. There was nothing on the back of her pale skinned leg. Ruby ran her other hand up the front, finding that dry feeling again, running from her foot to the bottom of her knee. She twisted her leg around and craned her neck to see the front of her limb. There, on the front, was a thin, clear spray of stuff on Ruby's left shin that reminded her vividly of the super glue incident.

This was Weiss'...

More colour flared in Ruby's cheeks as she picked at a piece of Weiss' mark. It came off with a bit of effort, but it came off in a flake, leaving white speckles everywhere. She flicked the pieces off the side of the bed as she stared at the size of the 'patch', which ran from close to her knee to the top of her foot. Weiss had... so much...

Ruby threw off those thoughts as she slipped her legs out from under her covers, before hopping off her bed, grabbing a set of her clothes from her chest of drawers next to Weiss' bed and moving towards the bathroom. Looking up at their sunlit bunks, Ruby was relieved to see that the other two members of her team were both still asleep, though Blake batted the air every once in a while in her sleep with a hand.

Maybe in her dream she was chasing something?

She shook her head as she slipped into the bathroom, and slid the door shut. Her eyes fell upon the spot where Weiss had pushed her to the floor, and her her draining cheeks flared once again with colour. It was still really hard to think that they'd done... it... here. Her and Weiss could have woken up Yang or Blake, and come to think of it, how had Blake not been woken up? Didn't she have, like, super sensitive hearing?

Her nose picked up a slightly feminine scent on the air as she put her normal clothes on the sink, one that she knew very well.

Ruby's own.

She slid aside the shower curtain as more thoughts about last night assaulted her mind.

Thoughts that were... what was it?

Indecent?

Irresponsible?

Something like that?

It didn't matter.

As the cold shock of the water came on, Ruby realised with a jolt that she was still fully clothed in her pyjamas, and that said clothes were now being soaked in the warm water of the shower. She swiftly stripped off the now soggy pyjamas and tossed them out of the shower onto the floor of the bathroom, annoyed at herself. C'mon, Ruby, who goes into the shower with clothes ON?

As Ruby reached for the soap, she was still thinking about Weiss. Would she remember what happened? Would she be angry with her if she did? But then what was she supposed to do? Wake up someone that was sleepwalking, then it would be so much worse if Weiss had been awake as she was doing... that. It would have been too much of a shock. Yup, too much of a shock.

But it... it did feel good.

Good enough to make Ruby wonder; did Weiss do this a lot? It had been the first time Ruby found her, but maybe she did it more than Ruby knew. And was Weiss dreaming about her a lot? Did she... love her? As more than just a friend? Maybe she-

OW!

Ruby hissed with pain as some of the shampoo, that she'd been rubbing into her hair as she'd been thinking, dripped slowly and softly into her eye. Instantly, her eye burned with fiery agony. She held her hands up near the shower head, washing the suds off them as she snapped her eyes shut, the searing pain spreading all over her right eye. She then rubbed her eyes vigorously, desperate to get the pain to stop. After a while, Ruby reached out for a nearby towel, grabbing it and pressing it to her watery eyes.

The pain was slowly receding.

Thank god.

Resuming the task of washing her hair, Ruby let her mind wander again.

It moved, like a lost puppy, straight back to Weiss again.

Did she love Ruby?

Thinking about it, Ruby couldn't find any reason why it wouldn't be true. She was friends with Weiss now, and yes, she could still be a bit... stuck up sometimes, that was just Weiss for you. What really set her mind on the idea was the fact that Weiss was dreaming about her. Dreams never lie, or at least, that's what mum had always said. If you had a nightmare, it was always about what you were secretly worried about.

But this wasn't a nightmare.

It was Weiss, walking around in her sleep, somehow talking to Ruby, kissing her, touching her, and then...

Was it love?

Ruby turned off the shower, straining the last of the soap suds out of her hair. Thinking about it wasn't going to help.

She grabbed a towel and quickly dried off, rubbing extra hard on her left leg to get Weiss'... mark off of her leg. That was what it was, right? Ruby then started putting on her black sports bra and panties, hearing someone shuffling around close by. Figuring it to still be Blake (she was still going at that chasing dream, maybe), she reached for her combat skirt and put it on, before reaching for her top and sidling into it.

Now fully clothed, Ruby exited the bathroom.

As she padded closer to her own bed, her eyes fell on Weiss' sleeping face once again. She paused. Weiss looked so peaceful there, still fast asleep. Her face still showed that same small smile.

Even after they'd done what they did.

Had Weiss really enjoyed it?

She'd... finished, but that had been when she was asleep.

Did she really feel any of it?

"It's not nice to stare, dolt."

Ruby snapped back to attention, her eyes refocusing on a now awake Weiss, whose light blue eyes were locked on Ruby. A flush of embarrassment flared in her cheeks as she realised that she'd been caught. But Weiss was surprisingly calm for someone that had just woken up while being stared at. An awkward silence billowed between the two of them.

"Ruby?" Weiss said quietly, her smile faltering. "Is there something you wanted to say?" Ruby's mind immediately went into overdrive.

"Oh. Yes! Good morning! How'd you sleep? Good dreams, bad dreams?" Ruby babbled, unable to keep control of her mouth. Weiss' smirk of amusement didn't calm Ruby down. In fact, it only made her more worried.

"I'm fine, thanks." Weiss replied, but then a faint blush appeared on her brow. "Just don't ask me about the dream. It... was weird, Ruby."

Aha! So she DID have that dream, the one that caused that... you know what.

"Actually... we need to talk about that dream." Ruby responded, sitting down beside the heiress' legs on the middle of her bed, causing creases along the stone-like surface. It was a testament to their friendship that Weiss didn't immediately berate her, though Ruby noticed the raised eyebrows that signified Weiss wanted to, alongside a slightly deeper blush. "How much do you remember?" Ruby asked.

"I... I don't want to talk about it." Weiss replied quietly.

"Weiss, it's important." Ruby asserted softly.

"Why?" Weiss asked back, her glare now showing signs of danger.

This was never going to be easy.

"You were sleepwalking last night." Ruby answered. "I saw you."

The colour seemed to drain from Weiss' face as she heard Ruby's reply. Then, it returned with full force, painting the upper levels of her face a light crimson.

"I was sleepwalking? With that dream?" she asked, more to herself than Ruby. Then, she reached over and grabbed Ruby's shoulders with surprising force, her expression suddenly very stern, her eyes hard. "Ruby, tell me what happened!" she hissed.

"You first!" Ruby retorted quietly, twisting out of the heiress' grasp, and backing up, going dangerously close to the foot of Weiss' bed. She lunged again, but Ruby was out of her reach this time, and she fell back with a defeated expression on her face.

"Fine." she spat. "But not here."

She then threw the duvet cover off herself and marched to the showers, picking up her set of clothes on the way. Ruby shifted to the side just a little bit in order to reach for something on top of the chest of drawers.

There was a crash as Ruby hit the floor of her dorm, having just fallen off the bed.

"First of all, noting we say leaves this room, right?" Weiss asked.

"Right." Ruby asserted.

They were sat at opposite ends of a desk within a sound-proofed private study room meant for teams to work together with only their own members for company, and no outside distractions. They were mostly empty during the weekends, so Weiss had taken the opportunity to give them a chance to talk in private. Both girls sat with blushes on their faces, and Ruby had crossed her legs under the desk.

She was watching Weiss' face as she looked away, clearly thinking about what to say.

She still looked beautiful, maybe even more than last night.

There was one problem though.

Weiss was never nervous.

As in never, ever nervous.

"Well," Weiss began, "I just have one thing to ask you, Ruby. You were in the dream I had. Please don't judge me in any way. Can you do that for me?"

This was weird. Weiss was quiet, not bossy like she normally was. Ruby had never, ever in her life, seen Weiss like this. But honestly, she knew that she was not one to judge anyone after she'd basically let Weiss do what she'd done in her sleep. Yeah.

"No judging." Ruby said, raising her hands in the universal 'hands up' position. "But that goes for you too, alright?"

"Alright." Weiss repeated, her voice sounding as if she'd been trying to pronounce a foreign word. "Well, then this is what I dreamed last night."

Weiss stood in a cold, dark void. Everything in this vast, open expanse of nothingness was mixes of dark purple and pure blackness. There was nothing here. Nothing.

Except the ground she stood upon, which was the same, shifting colours that the space was.

And herself.

"W-Weiss..."

And that-

Wait, what?

"Ruby?" Weiss called out into the darkness. "Ruby, where are you?"

There was no response. Just the endless shifting shadows that both drew away from her and closed in on her. She was alone. She would be alone, unless she found Ruby.

"I'm s-s-scared, Weiss!" Ruby cried out, her voice echoing around Weiss.

She wheeled around, trying to find Ruby, but to no avail.

It was still just her.

Alone.

"Ruby? Why aren't you here?" Weiss called back, still looking, desperate to find Ruby. She was out there, somewhere. Weiss' face fell. "It's me, your friend!"

At last, she spotted a figure among the twisting nether of the abyss Weiss' dream had taken the form of. It was approaching her, and a second look showed a pyjama-clad Ruby stepping through the shadows, getting closer and closer, until she was right in front of Weiss, having just moved from miles away in the blink of an eye.

"I'm here, Weiss." the figure whispered as she came even closer. Weiss' heart was racing now. Once Ruby reached her, Weiss took her hand in her own, and Ruby pulled her down onto the floor of the black nexus that was the dream world. Despite the bleak surroundings, it almost felt... lighter, now that Ruby was with her. Ruby had a wide smile on her face as she watched Weiss.

"You came." Weiss said softly. Ruby nodded, slowly padding even closer, like a curious puppy looking at a new toy.

"I came." Ruby repeated.

"I was scared, Ruby." Weiss admitted, something she wouldn't normally do, but here, in this dank dream, she could let her real feelings out.

"It's okay." Ruby reassured, before she wrapped her arms around Weiss, pulling her close. "I love you, Weiss." she whispered, as Weiss drew her arms up to her chest, in-between them. "I've always loved you."

Finally. The words Weiss wanted to hear from the real one. In response, Weiss leaned up and brushed her lips against Ruby's own. She twitched defensively, something that did not go unnoticed, but did not otherwise react.

"And then?" Ruby asked, before noticing that she was leaning over the desk, watching Weiss intensely, her attention on the heiress' every word. She was blushing profusely now, backing away ever so slightly.

"I... I... I can't, Ruby." Weiss replied, crossing her arms across her chest and bowing her head. "It's too much. Tell me your side!" she suddenly demanded. "What happened?"

Ruby sighed, causing Weiss' gaze to harden.

And it was just getting to the point when they, no, when Weiss kissed her.

Now, it was her turn to blush.

"Weiss." She took a deep breath. "What you dreamt... kinda... happened. While you were sleepwalking."
