This is the sound that Jaune has been listening to for the last 15 minutes. The reason why he hasn't gotten up to check where he was or shut off that noise was because he knew he wouldn't be met with a pleasant sight. Currently Jaune was sitting in a hospital bed located in Beacons medical wing. Around him were a few of his sisters, and from what Jaune could tell from the overwhelming atmosphere, two different people. 'Why do things like this always happen to me?' Jaune thought to himself. 'All I wanted was to show my family a good time around Vale. 'Well...I guess I can't hide from the outside world forever.' Jaune began to slowly open his eyes, and was greeted by a sight that Yang would pay good lien to watch. Currently in the middle of the room he could see Blake and Pyrrha wrestling each other on the floor.
"Gah! Why are you so flexible, let me get a good grip on you!" Pyrrha screamed at Blake, as she somehow managed to squirm her way out of Pyrrha's grasp. As Blake jumped onto her feet she leapt over Pyrrha getting behind her and crawling onto her back. In retaliation to Blake climbing onto her back, Pyrrha reached her hands backwards trying to get a grasp on Blake's head. Just as she was about to grab Blake's head, Blake jumped off of her back. At this point Jaune was starting to sit up in his bed and begin to stand up.
"Jaune's awake!" he heard from the right side of his bed. Before he could look he felt one of his sisters jump onto his bed and push him back down onto his pillow. Once he was sure he wouldn't be getting up anytime soon Jaune just sighed and relaxed as his sister wouldn't let him back up. "Jaune's awake, Jaune's awake!" The girl started to chant, after a few more chants the rumbling and yelling from the middle of the room stopped. As the sister who pinned Jaune down got off of him, she was replaced by two other girls who squeezed his chest and took out the air from his lungs. On his left side he saw a black bow and equally black hair. On his right was a mound of red hair with a gold circlet showing in some places.
Both girls back away as he got a good look at them. Blake and Pyrrha both had streams going down their faces as they said in unison, "I'm sorry Jaune. I didn't mean for you to get hurt. I just wanted you for myself." As both the girls continued apologize and cry over him Jaune could only stare at them confused. He let the two girls calm down for a bit until they were both able to breathe normally. "What are you guys apologizing for?" Jaune said with a blank look on his face. He honestly had no clue as to why Blake and Pyrrha were just fighting a second ago, to apologizing to him the next. 'Did I miss something again?" he thought to himself.
"Wait," Blake spoke up first, "you mean you don't remember what happened at the restaurant?" She and Pyrrha stared at Jaune waiting for his response. "Well...I remember walking in and taking my order, but after that things get fuzzy and then I have no recollection of what happened." Jaune said to the two girls. A few seconds passed by as the two girls soaked in this new information. "YOU DON'T REMEMBER!?" they screamed in unison and began to slap Jaune.
After a few good chunks were put into Jaune's aura level the door opened to the room revealing Jaune's mother. As she took a step in the door and saw the two girls sitting on Jaune's bed with their arms raised ready for one last hit she let a little evil smile show on her face. "Now girls, no matter how fun it may be to hurt MY little boy, I recommend you both start running." With that she reached behind her back and pulled up a big kitchen knife. No words were spoken as Blake dove out of the window that was closest to her, and Pyrrha breaking down the wall next to her into another room. Meg chuckled as she stowed the kitchen utensil back to where she had it hidden and began to walk towards Jaune's bed. Meg sat down on the side that Pyrrha was recently sitting on as she put on hand on Jaune's forehead to check his temperature. She sighed as she didn't feel any burning or bruises that would indicate that Jaune was hurt. Jaune relaxed himself on the bed feeling the comfort you could only get from a mother's presence. Without missing a beat Meg pulled up a bowl of vegetable stew from...somewhere...and got a spoonful for Jaune.
From the windowsill just outside Jaune's room Blake was hanging onto the edge with all her might. Maybe jumping out of a window that was 5 stories high wasn't her best idea, even if she was a cat.

Two hours had gone by now, and it was already close to midnight. Jaune was released from the hospital room about 40 minutes ago, and recently he had made a quick stop in front of his family's room to say goodnight, and then off to the room in the building where his room was located. The walk there was rather uneventful, but he could swear he felt a pair of eyes watching his every move. Once he got to the door to the roof he stopped as he heard a faint noise. He leaned his head closer to the door as the sound became just a bit louder. It was the sound of someone sobbing. Without waiting to reconsider his actions he opened the door to the roof. Near the middle of the roof sat Blake holding her head in her hands and letting loose a heart wracking sob. Jaune couldn't take it, hearing that sound felt like someone was tearing a hole in the middle of his chest.
Before Blake could let out another tear Jaune was on his knees by her side, grabbing her head and putting it right over his heart. Blake took in a big gulp of air as she turned her head to look up at Jaune. He let out a sigh as he said, "You know, we really gotta stop meeting up like this Blake." She continued to stare up at him as he got ready to say something else.
"I'm sorry Jaune!" she said before he was able to continue with what he was going to say. He tilted his head to the side confused as to why she was sorry. Tears began to from at the ends of Blake's eyes as she turned her head down. "I know all you wanted to do was have fun with your family, and to spend quality time with them...but I just wanted you to myself..." she said her voice dying down. Jaune raised his right arm to her chin lifting her head so he was looking her in the eyes. No words were said as he raised his left hand to brush away the tears that were daring to fall.
"Blake, i'm still not really sure what happened today, but that doesn't really matter. At the end of the day I did get to spend quality time with my family, but besides that I got to spend time with...you." Jaune said. His cheeks were starting to heat up as he looked at Blake's eyes widen. "You may think that you were being selfish by spending time with me while my family is here, but really...I wanted you to be there. When I saw that you were by yourself on the airdocks I just couldn't bear the thought of you being by yourself." He said. "I know that we've only recently began to really get along, but I remember my mother once telling me 'Never let my fears get in the way of my happiness'. So Blake...would you like to...well umm...would you...like to be...my girlfriend?"
Blake sat there wide eyed and emotionless, but on the inside her heart was pounding and inside her head she was screaming in pure joy. Jaune didn't take the silence that followed his confession in a positive way though as he just let out a sigh and began to get up. "I'm s-sorry Blake. I guess I was just too sudden with this. I understand if you don't want to hang out with me anymo-" Jaune was cut off from what he was saying as Blake Jumped at him pushing him down to he floor. A second later he felt a warm softness on his lips that could only mean one thing. His eyes widened at he saw Blake's eyes begin to close while their lips touched together. Jaune couldn't believe what was happening, he thought that Blake was upset by his confession. 'I guess...I was the one to guess to conclusions.' Jaune thought as he began he close his eyes and push back into the kiss.
Over at the door leading back inside it was opened just enough for someone to look out at the two people on the floor kissing each other. With a blink a green eye looked down and the door closed ever so silently.
