Friday, the best day of the week and a day before the date. But for him, it wasn't the best morning he ever had. Jaune woke up with messy hair and sleepy eyes. He's been awake six hours after the... Kiss incident. He's been wondering what that makes them, are they now a couple or did she just do that on purpose. Thoughts kept running through his mind and he only got around 5-6 hours of sleep last night. So what happened last night between the kiss and the never ending thoughts...
Jaune recovered from the kiss from Yang, which was like 30 minutes ago. He pulled out his scroll and found 65 messages and 20 calls by Pyrrha, and one message from Ren. What the hell? what's with all the messages? he thought. He viewed the latest message from Pyrrha.
Jaune, where are you? we're worried about you, Please pick up as soon as possible - Pyrrha. And the message cuts from there, they felt worried and scared... Well more like Pyrrha felt more worried and scared. He then viewed the message from Ren.
Hey Jaune, how are you? - Ren.
"I better get back, I don't want Pyrrha worrying about me" he said to no one in particular. So he packed his bag and made his way back to his room.
He finally arrived at his dorm room 20 minutes later. Because the Headmaster seemed to walk by and compliment Jaune on his brilliant skill in music. To Jaune, the headmaster felt interested at his talent and asked him if he could teach the students a thing or two about Musical Instruments.
"Sorry Professor, I would love to teach some students a thing or two about music but I just don't know how to teach... I don't think it's legal for a student to teach other students" said Jaune. Ozpin frowned.
"I understand Mr Arc, but it could be beneficial for students to learn. After all, I saw your little fiasco near the airship docks not too long ago and It seems Miss Xiao Long was... Delighted, to have a performance from you" Smiled Ozpin. Jaune blushed at that event and bowed his head down to avoid eye contact from Ozpin.
'Sneaky Professor... Very sneaky indeed...' thought Jaune.
"I-I'll see what I can do, but right now I gotta go, Pyr- I mean, my team is worrying about me" he said.
"Yes Of course Mr Arc! Miss Nikos can be handful sometimes but she means well" said the Professor.
A faint colour of pink was plastered on his face "What?! I didn't say anything about Pyrr-".
"Goodnight Mr Arc, I believe it's time to be taking my leave now, see you soon" said Ozpin smirking, cutting off Jaune's sentence. Jaune just stood there surprised.
"But Pyrrha wasn't worr-" His cries stopped as soon Ozpin turned the corner.
"Professor Ozpin can be very strange at times..." muttered Jaune, and he continued walking to his room.
Once he opened the door to his room, red ponytailed hair glomped him and started suffocating his lungs.
"Jaune! we were so worried about you! Wherever you go, Please tell us when you will be coming back" Responded Pyrrha, whom was crushing her leaders bones by now.
When he realized it was Pyrrha, he gently pushed her away from himself. When she wouldn't budge he signaled his other 'sane' teammates to get her off of him. They both complied and dragged Pyrrha to her bed.
"Pyrrha I'm fine! nothing will happen to me" He gave his partner a thumbs up and a wide smile, but Pyrrha still felt worried.
"So what happened Jaune, you were away for quite some time?" asked Ren.
"I uhh... was reminiscing... the... importance, of... Life"
"You were reminiscing the importance of life?" asked Ren "I'm not buying it..."
"Ye-Yeah I was, The... thing... that... other Professor... taught...us" Jaune's words were nervous as heck, he didn't want to let his teammates know.
"Yeah ok Jaune... You sure this doesn't involve Yang or anyone at this point?" asked Ren, whom had a smile on his face.
"What?! No, what made you think that?" he asked a bit too quickly. Ren widened his eyes at him and this made Jaune very fidgety.
"You ask me, because I could hear your nam-" but he was cut off by Nora putting her hand across his mouth to shut him up.
"Reeeen, it's not good to intrude into other people's business!" scolded Nora. He rolled his eyes at his best friend.
"A-Anyways I'm gonna hit the sack, goodnight guys!" he said, trying to avoid anymore questions from his team. They just shrugged and reminded themselves to ask them at a later date, but they were very tired so they also 'hit the sack'.
As soon as they slept, Jaune opened his eyes and looked up at the ceiling. Usually when he came to find ideas or just to daydream, his favourite area to glance at was the ceiling. Because the white colour of the plain ceiling makes it look like a piece of paper.
He can daydream about things easily whenever he gazes up there. But right now thinking about stuff was hard for the Blonde Knight, maybe because that kiss Yang gave him clouded his thoughts and killed off most of his daydreams. He sighed in annoyance and shifted to his right, but when he gazed at Pyrrha's peaceful sleep, he smiled which calmed his annoyance down a lot. He looked on with a happy smile plastered across his face.
Jaune may not be the best of the best in combat, but he is probably the quickest thinker in his year, but not when it came to women. But soon enough he'll figure out why sudden 'friendly gestures' have been given to him from his friends. Unfortunately he isn't the best at hints.
'What did Yang say after I performed for her? something about making sense and romantic evenings... Gah! I can't think properly, stupid, dumb, heartwarming, soft, sensational kiss has given me a brain malfunction' Thought Jaune.
'Yang also said I must keep my distance away from Ruby, Weiss and Blake. I should also keep my distance from Pyrrha, she's been acting rather odd lately so I'll let Ren take care of her. And so has Yang. Ok first thing tomorrow, I'll leave as early as possible so they won't follow me' he thought.
'But tomorrow, I've got Dust manipulation class with Weiss, Communications class with Blake, Combat class with Ruby and Pyrrha and lastly, Aura usage class with Yang. How am I supposed to avoid them?!' He thought 'Maybe I'll just sit somewhere else, or maybe I could skip class altogether? Nah that won't work. How about I sit at the back of the class and when the bell rings I can bolt out of there in no time! Yes Jaune you've got this all under control, it's fool proof'
'Ok Jaune, go over the plan. You will wake up earlier so you can leave earlier, then avoid all female friends at all times... Well not all female friends, besides Velvet and Natasha. And lastly, sit AWAY from them as far as possible. Oh Jaune... You're amazingly smart! By the way what time is it?' He looked at the time and it read 12:30 am surprisingly. So he
stopped his thoughts and tried to sleep, but even the deepest of sleepers cannot sleep with something running through their heads. Eventually after an hour he finally got some sleep.
And that's how the Musician became Very. Very. Tired. Shrugging off the sleep deprivation, he grabbed his uniform and made his way to the bathroom silently trying not to wake his friends, especially the Spartan.
After his somewhat refreshing shower he silently opened the bathroom door and bolted to his rooms door, opening and then closing it in near impossible speeds. But he accidentally made a huge BANG that woke up Pyrrha. And when she woke up to find Jaune has left already, she only had one thought in mind. 'He's escaping'
Jaune ran to the cafeteria in order to get some quick lunch, and to also avoid Pyrrha because she must've heard the loud Bang. He arrived at the cafeteria in under two minutes and ordered two pieces of toast in under ten seconds. New world record for a breakfast order.
After taking his breakfast he didn't bother sitting down and take his time, instead, he just ran to his combat class for an early lesson. Well the class will not start yet but it would be good to just sit down and catch up on some sleep, he sleeps in most classes anyway so it wouldn't make a difference. He was almost there until he collided with a person with bright purple eyes and slim figure.
"Hey mate! Watch where you're runnin- Oh Jaune, sorry I didn't see you there, are you ok?" said Natasha.
"No no It's alright It was my fault anyway, I should've watched where I was running but are you ok though?" he asked. Natasha nodded happily and smiled at him, He smiled back which made Natasha's heart flutter like crazy.
"We should stop bumping into each other, it's not good for our foreheads" he said playfully, which made her laugh lightly.
"A-Anyways it's friday, what should we do tomorrow?" she asked.
"I've got everything prepared, don't worry about that!" he said proudly. Natasha felt surprised and giddy inside, she never knew Jaune could be so dedicated to this date. But otherwise Natasha felt excited to see what he had planned.
"Oh wow Jaune! I was gonna do it but I guess you have it handled" smiled Natasha.
"Yeah I guess so, I just hope it would be good enough for you" said Jaune.
"Don't worry I'm not picky, even if it's just an ice cream date I don't care, as long I'm... s-spending time... w-with you" stammered Natasha. He giggled at her flustered face while she looked away in embarrassment.
"But I-Im pretty excited what you have planned" said Natasha.
"Hahaha I can tell, do you need a mirror for your flustered face" smirked Jaune. Natasha looked at him with a look of annoyance.
"That's not funny Jaune"
"I'm just teasing you" he smiled once again his trademark smile and she just rolled her eyes.
"So where are you going?" asked Natasha.
"Going to Dust manipulation class, you?" asked Jaune.
"Going to the cafeteria, isn't it a little too early for classes?" she said.
"Yeah it is, but I have a few... problems, so I'm trying to avoid them"
"Oh let me guess. Pyrrha, Ruby, Weiss, Yang and Blake problems" she smirked, giving Jaune payback for his earlier teasing.
"W-Well Yeah, but it isn't a lot of trouble"
"Fangirls right? They are a quite a bunch to handle, the famous Jaune Arc now has girl problems to deal with" she giggled.
"Don't worry, I've handled things like this before"
"Sisters don't count..."
"W-Well... T-They should count, they're sometimes a pain to deal with" he said, while she again rolled her eyes.
"Anyways I better get to the cafeteria, I'll see you later Jaune"
"Oh I've got an extra piece of toast here, you can have it" He then handed the extra toast to her.
"T-Thanks Jaune, You're very sweet" she said, which made Jaune's a bit embarrassed.
"So I'll see you later then?" she asked.
"Y-Yeah sure, see you around" and with that he hugged Natasha which caught her off guard, but she succumbed to the sweet gesture and hugged back, digging her head on his shoulder.
"I'll be off now, gotta avoid them if you know what I mean" Jaune said and Natasha nodded in understanding.
"I understand, I'll see you tomorrow" Jaune nodded and ran to his classroom. Natasha just stood there looking at the piece of toast on her hand, she had a huge sweet smile on her face.
'Oh Jaune...'
The Blonde Musician arrived at his Dust manipulation classroom with enough time to nap. He found a seat at the far back right of the classroom and settled comfortably into the seat. His body slouched and he crossed his arms on the desk with his head resting on his forearms. Once he got comfortable he instantly closed his eyes and let sleep take him.
1 hour later...
Jaune woke up to whispers around him. He opened his eyes and found women surrounding him with flirtatious smiles and small smirks on their faces.
"Mr Arc will you please wake up, class is about to start" said the professor. She was a women with dark red hair and was wearing casual clothes. This professor's name was Miss Tuggey and current fiance to Mr Jones.
"Ugh... How long was I asleep for?"
"About an hour, didn't you get any sleep last night Mr Arc?" asked the Professor.
"Not really, I had a few problems that needed to be taken care of" he said.
"Was half those problems work related?" she said, while Jaune just nodded.
"Ok that's fine I guess, you make take a nap for the next 30 minutes of class. Ms Scarlatina will wake you up as you are currently sitting on her chair" she smirked, He had to agree that this teacher is kind and caring for her students, and the whole class knows it. Jaune glanced over to Velvet and found her blushing like crazy and trying to avoid eye contact with him.
"Sorry Velvet I didn't know"
"No it's fine, I'll just sit next to you" said Velvet, who was still flustered. Miss Tuggey smiled and walked to the front of the class.
"Girls, Jaune may be a superstar but that doesn't mean you should stare at him and ignore class, So will you please move back to your seats thanks" The other female students left for their seats without saying anything, but not before they all sent him winks and flirty waves. The Blonde huntsman just groaned tiredly and rested his head back on his forearms again.
"I'll wake you up when the time is right" said Velvet.
"Thank you Velvet" and with that he fell asleep instantly, not noticing the very sudden flustered face of the Bunny Faunus.
Whilst Jaune was sleeping, Professor Tuggey was talking about the different types of dust that can be made from this world. She explained the powers of energy dust and how they can be made to make different kinds of dust, like mixing different coloured paint to make this specific type of colour. She talked about the recent dust types dust scientists have now discovered by simply doing a little chemistry to make it.
"-Now similar types of energy dust makes dissimilar types of dust. For example if you mix yellow and blue together you get green. Green associates with Land, grass and trees, so therefore it symbolises life. If you mix red and blue together you make purple, so therefore purple symbolises power, nobility, luxury and ambition. These are just small examples of newly made energy dust, as we speak they are making and testing brand new ones for our world" A student put her hand up to speak, cutting off Professor Tuggey's speech on dust.
"Professor, what about red and white? Does that mean-" The professor smirked and her eyes glazed over to the sleeping huntsman. She knew what would happen if she said the answer but she just wanted to see their reactions.
"Yes Miss Evangeline, that mix will cause the heart to beat exponentially and cause the user to glance over at his/her friend or mistress. In other words, it is a Lust dust" students heads perked up at the mention of lust dust, but other female students smiled at looked at Jaune, Whom was still sleeping peacefully. The professor noticed that most of the women in the class room looked at Jaune dreamily, especially Miss Scarlatina who was stroking Jaune's luscious blonde locks. She laughed and giggled at her students antics for the knight.
'Young love is so sweet' She thought.
"Girls, please stop focusing on Mr Arc please, He's very handsome but may you control yourselves until the end of class" said Professor Tuggey. They all complied and turned back to the front of the class.
"You too Miss Schnee..." Weiss frowned but did as she was told and shifted head to the teacher. "Oh and that Lust dust I was talking about is fake... There's no such thing girls and boys, Dust cannot manipulate the mind of a being" she laughed. Most of the students just groaned in disappointment and sadness.
Jaune woke up from white material hitting his face, he slowly opened his eyes and found out that paper was thrown at him.
"Velvet, a simple tap on the shoulder would suffice"
"O-Oh s-sorry Jaune, But it wasn't m-me I would n-never throw paper at you, Never!" she exclaimed. Until another piece of paper was thrown at her head. He got annoyed and angrily gazed back to the brats who were wasting valuable resources. It was two boys who looked like typical college Jocks with their big muscular frame and devilish grins. Jaune narrowed his eyes at one of the boys but he didn't seem fazed or scared, instead, he just smiled and wrote something down on a piece of paper. Once he finished writing it down he scrunched it up and threw it at Jaune, luckily Jaune caught it and opened it up. But what he read made his eyes widen.
"Stop stealing MY women, they deserve to be with me and not you!" It said in messy handwriting. Geez these guys are worse than Cardin, Sure he was quite a douche bag but he never was... Over possessive with Women.
Jaune wrote something at the back of the paper then he scrunched it up and threw it at one of the boys. When it hit him at the back of the head he got annoyed and hastily unwrapped the piece of paper. What he read widened his eyes and surprised him even more.
"I don't and will never steal women, if your feeling desperate there's something you could use to spend your time with. It's called YOUR HAND" was what the note said in clear perfect writing. He scowled at the Musician and looked away from him, not wanting to take it any further. Although his buddy had other plans and threw a piece of paper at Velvet. She yelped at the sudden impact to the forehead. She unwrapped the piece of paper and read it.
"Faunus trash bag!" was what it said. Velvet sighed in sadness and Jaune seemed to notice it, so it was in his best interest to comfort Velvet. He put his arm around her and smiled a comforting smile at her. Velvet smiled in acknowledgement and sighed dreamily at him but the two boys seemed to notice the sudden actions between the two and giggled, whispering about how he can like an ugly Fauna such as Velvet. Velvet clearly heard this due to her sensitive hearing and so she sobbed quietly. Jaune could barely hear it but was audible enough for him to know what they were saying.
'They're WAY worse than Cardin!' he thought angrily.
"Don't listen to them Velvet, I think you're beautiful in every way" he said. Velvet perked up at this and wiped her tears away.
"T-Thank you Jaune" she said cutely. Now it was time for Jaune to blush fiercely, the heat radiating from his face was too much so he started sweating. The bell rang signaling the end of class and the start of their second class, Jaune smiled at Velvet and left instantly because he still knew Weiss was there at the front of the class.
The end of all Classes...
Classes has finally ended and all the students were allowed to roam free around Beacon or Vale since it's Friday. Jaune just finished his Aura usage class and bolted out the door, Unfortunately Yang was quick enough to catch up to him. So she circled her arm around his arm and rested her head on his shoulder which made him groan in defeat as it would be impossible for him to escape due to Yang being stronger than him.
As they both walked back to their dorm rooms arm in arm (Much to Jaune's dismay) he noticed a certain brunette laughing and giggling her head off at him. He rolled his eyes and gestured Natasha to go away, but she wouldn't comply and instead, took a photo of his embarrassing moment with Yang. His eyes widened in shock as Natasha sent him the photo through his scroll.
"Isn't this nice Jaune, us just walking back to our dorm room like a couple" said Yang.
"Uhh... We're not a couple Yang"
"Of course we aren't... Not yet at least" she winked.
"Yang you need help..." he said.
"As long it's from you, then I'm fine with it" Yang said smiling while Jaune just rolled his eyes. They arrived at their dorm room in less than five minutes surprisingly and headed back to their respective rooms, But before Jaune could turn the door knob Yang pinned him to a wall.
"Y-Yang what are you doing!" he yelled.
"Watch out Jaune, because it's coming" she whispered to his ear.
"What's coming? what are you talking about?" he said, but still oddly curious.
"I won't tell you that because it would ruin the fun. All in due time you'll see, all in due time Jaune" and with that she released Jaune and headed to her room while waving at him.
'I'm going straight to hell for this, I'm gonna die!' he thought.
"Hey team leader there you are! We were wondering where you were and why you left so early" said Nora. he turned around and came face to face with his team.
"Yeah sorry about that, I had things to do. Important stuff y'know"
"Oh sure... Important stuff" he walked past Jaune to the door but not before saying something in his ear "...Like avoiding your biggest fans" smirked Ren. Jaune gulped.
"Ok Team leader, whatever you say!" chirped Nora and walked inside their dorm room.
"Hmm... What kind of 'important stuff'" asked a curious Pyrrha.
"Pyrrha don't worry about it, it's just stuff I need to do"
"Alright I guess I believe you, but..." BUMP she threw him to a wall and stood awfully close to him, like their lips would be barely grazing if he just leaned forward an inch "Just remember that you'll won't be escaping us, because we got you locked in a bag full of our special ideas in mind" she said flirtatiously, and then proceeded to lick his lips. Not Kiss. Just straight up lick.
Jaune felt terrified, he has not been this nervous and scared in his life. Although the cute lick from Pyrrha was a bit nice as he could still feel her saliva on his lips. 'Shut up Jaune, NO pervy thoughts' . He proceeded to enter his dorm room and do some homework.
Meanwhile somewhere around Beacon's dormitory corridors...
Velvet was casually walking by herself to her room, reminiscing about the friendly and soothing words from the Blonde knight. She was glad humans like him were around, like a guardian angel dressed in armor and the fire to take her fears away. Maybe life doesn't have to be so bad, as long as you find the right people to treat you right. Like someone to talk to you everyday and help you with any problems you have.
Even if her Teammates aren't always around they do their best to cheer up Velvet as they love her the same way parents love their children. Her teammates always stood up for her any way possible from the bullies or discrimination. But unfortunately due to the numerous amounts of unsupervised bruising and large amounts of broken bones they gave to Racists, they were suspended for a month.
Ozpin rejected the idea of suspending teammates whom were just there to help, but Glynda had very good and straight to the point reasons for suspension. So for now she's alone in their dorm room, just doing normal things a student should be doing.
Velvet walked up the stairs to the third floor of the dormitory buildings. She almost arrived until two boys from earlier were waiting near her dorm room. Velvet yelped in fear and ran back the way she came, They both caught sight of Velvet and ran after her in incredible speeds, using Aura to pump more power into their legs. But no matter how much aura they're pumping, they will always have a difficult time trying to catch a bunny.
"Come back here you freak!" screamed wannabe Jock No. 1
"I'll promise to hurt you slowly" yelled wannabe Jock No. 2
'Why me' thought Velvet sadly. Whilst escaping floor three to get to floor four.
'I just hope someone would help'
"There all done! Finally I get some free time now" cheered Jaune.
"How do you finish so quickly?" asked Pyrrha.
"I dunno really, it's seems pretty easy"
"As if! Professor Jones gave us a third year strategy and communications test sample. Even the most skilled first year strategist would struggle with something like that" said Ren.
"Well you can tell Professor Jones to give us harder samples, because this one" he said waving the test paper in front of their faces "...Is too easy!"
"I'd rather not say that to him..."
"So where are you going now team leader?" asked Nora.
"Gonna relieve some stress from the easy sample we just did" bragged Jaune as he made his way out the door.
"Brag about it" scoffed Ren.
"Reeenn why is Jaune so smart?!" complained Nora.
"I don't know, he's our team leader because he's smart, that's all I'm gonna say"
"Well I guess it wouldn't hurt to take a quick peek at his paper..." said Pyrrha.
5 minutes later...
"We finally got it done, I'm surprised at the answers he's placed. I've never seen those kind of strategies before" said a surprised Ren.
"Same here, No wonder he's our leader..." Muttered Pyrrha.
"Cookie break!" said Nora, pulling out a big carton of chocolate chip cookies.
As she was going for the first chip a loud crash sounded from the used-to-be-door. They found Ruby with hungry eyes and a drooling mouth.
"I SMELL COOKIES! WHERE ARE THEY!" yelled Ruby.
As team JNPR's leader walked through the halls to go to his secret room, he heard audible screaming coming from nearby. He changed direction and walked to the source of the sound. He was close, he can hear them from around the corner. And when he peeked the corner, fluffy ears and brown hair collided with him unexpectedly.
'Why am I unlucky enough to collided with a girl' he thought. When he found that Velvet was the one who smashed into him, he couldn't help but feel guilty as she was rubbing her ears in pain.
"Well Look what we have here!" replied the wannabe jocks.
"P-Please what do you w-want" sobbed Velvet.
"All your lien and a free ear pulling" said one of the wannabe's devilishly.
"But I need that lien, without it I'm broke" pleaded Velvet.
"Don't care, animals aren't supposed to have money" Laughed the jocks. Jaune felt his blood boil and his anger rise, so he stood up from the ground and stood in front of Velvet.
"Don't you dare talk to her down like that!" yelled an infuriated Jaune.
"What are you gonna do? Get out of my way kid before I hurt you!" said Jock No. 1, Jock No. 2 made the biggest mistake of his life as he went for a kick to Velvet's stomach. Jaune saw this happen and he would not see it happen again. So he grabbed their shirts and smashed their heads on the wall. He then grabbed their hair and pulled them in the most hurtful way possible, making them yelp in excruciating pain.
"Don't you EVER mess with my team, my FRIENDS, ever again!" Replied Jaune in a very stern and scary tone "Got it!". The Jocks scowled at the Blonde knight and he let them go, and they both walked back to their respective dorms without a word. Jaune found Velvet sitting on the floor sobbing quietly, her tears started to travel down her cheeks and stain her white school shirt. He approached her and calmly put a hand behind her back rubbing it soothingly and Velvet looked at him with sorrowful yet thankful look.
"T-Thank you Jaune, it's not everyday I see a human such as yourself helping someone like me" said Velvet. Jaune held out his hand to help Velvet up.
"I'm not a human... I'm a friend, and I will do anything to help a friend in need" smiled Jaune. Velvet gave her own cute smile and accepted his hand. When she clasped his hand, She couldn't help but blush, although she did her best to try and hide it.
"Besides, I'm sure there's humans like me who will be willing to help you"
"Yes but they're kind of rare to find in Vytal, or the whole of Remnant for that matter..."
"Well you're lucky to find one right here" He said. 'Good cheesy pick up line Jaune' he thought. Velvet's blush intensified and Jaune was just sweating out of pure embarrassment.
"To be honest with you, I-I'm kind of glad someone like you... is watching out for F-Faunus like me... Dear god Velvet, you just said the most cheesiest thing ever, He'll definitely like you now...' Thought Velvet sarcastically. This time, it was Jaune's turn to blush.
"I just wish people would be more comforting and accepting, instead of hurtful and rude" muttered Velvet.
"Hey don't worry, you've got friends that'll help you. Whenever you need someone for help with anything, My friend's and I will certainly make it happen" He said, smiling at Velvet. "C'mon let's talk while we walk"
"Where are we going" Asked Velvet.
"You'll see, I think it's time I'll show you Beacon's new room" And so they walked towards the secret music room, while Velvet had her hand holding Jaune's arm. Jaune didn't seem to mind though, she's been through a lot since the suspension of her teammates and it was in his best interest to be the next one up to cheer Velvet.
And whilst they walked, Jaune talked about how Velvet can manage getting through Beacon without it being hell and how she can be an inspiration to other Faunus around the world. Velvet's bunny ears perked up at this and she had a shining glimmer of hope and determination to inspire Faunus to battle through discrimination and reach their goals. Jaune gave a huge grin and two supportive thumbs up to Velvet, which made Velvet smile widely. But her smile subsided as she thought of something that breaks the hearts of all Faunus that Humans wouldn't simply understand.
"It won't be easy Jaune, there are lots of Faunus who are bullied, hurt or taken. And the one question that runs through our heads is 'What makes us different to Humans besides our traits and features'" she said sadly. He frowned and thought of a good reason to say, but simply came up with no reasonable answer. So he said what he thinks would be suitable for the question.
"I don't think it's because you're different, I think it's because people are scared and feared of the Faunus. Maybe they don't understand you just yet, and maybe they just need someone to convince them" said Jaune.
"Ever since the White Fang has turned to a more... Destructive course, discrimination has been higher than before" Velvet fully understood what he meant and Jaune could see it. "And people have mistaken the White Fang to peaceful Faunus, so it's understandable why Humans like those Jock-wannabe's back there..." Velvet giggled lightly at his remark "...Haven't been very friendly to you, Maybe you should kill them with kindness"
"K-Kill them with kindness? Is that a weapon or s-something?" stammered Velvet. He simply laughed lightly at her confusion.
"No Velvet, nothing of that kind. It's just a simple friendly gesture you give to one another" Velvet nodded "But sometimes you can't show any fear when showing kindness, it makes it a little off putting" Velvet nodded again in understanding.
"Sorry, I've forgotten the meaning of kindness. It's been a long time since i've heard that word before"
"No problem, you learn something everyday" replied Jaune, while Velvet stared at the blank wall shyly.
"I don't know if you know it or not but we've been standing here in front of this wall for nearly a minute now" said a confused Velvet. Jaune laughed again at her confusion and approached the wall, he put Aura into the wall and a button popped open. He then pressed it and the wall started shapeshifting into a glass door but while it was shifting Velvet's eyes widened and her ears twitched in excitement as she wondered what secret is lurking behind the door.
Jaune opened the glass door and turned on the lights, Then the yellow lights shone brightly above which illuminated the whole room and warmed the place. Velvet's eyes widened and eyes twitched like mad in excitement again, she squealed like a little girl getting her best birthday present yet. Jaune simply just laughed at her, but surprisingly, Velvet also joined in laughing with Jaune.
She approached the Piano and fangirled at the extravagant design and mint condition surface, she took a big whiff of the surface and sighed relaxingly (This confused Jaune a lot) smelling the amazing scent coming from the Piano itself. She then hurriedly moved to the Guitars on the wall and had the sudden urge to strum one, she looked back at Jaune with a permission look and he just nodded. She carefully took one out of the rack and started playing it like crazy which made him chuckle a little bit, despite her terrible strumming technique.
'She's like Nora when she is all happy... I like that' he thought. After her little guitar fiasco she placed it back down gently and skipped to Jaune.
"Wow Jaune, this is amazing! How did you find this place?!"
"Professor Ozpin shown me, and so he's given me the responsibility of looking after this room"
"Must be quite a trek, I mean looking after all this instruments"
"Nah it's fine... No one comes here anyway without my permission" he said, which scared Velvet a bit.
"Follow me, I wanna show you the best thing about this room" he said, and so he walked to the curtains with Velvet in tow. He opened the dark red curtains and found another glass door behind it. So he opened it a gestured Velvet to come out, and what she saw amazed her the most. The view is the city of Vale with golden lights spanning from east to west, the chilling breeze made it more comfortable and the bright moon illuminated Jaune and Velvet in bright white light.
"This is AMAZING!" she yelled at the top of her lungs. 'Yup, just like Nora' thought Jaune.
"Velvet calm down, it's just lights and breeze. Sure it looks beautiful but no need to swoon over it" lectured Jaune. She faced Jaune and smirked at him.
"You don't know anything about what women like, do you?" smiled Velvet.
"Well, I'm not a woman... So I wouldn't know, care to tell me?"
"They like THIS!" screamed Velvet, while throwing her hands up in the air.
"What's... This?" Velvet just sighed at the Blonde's Obliviousness.
"Don't worry about it... You really are Oblivious" she said while Jaune just rolled his eyes playfully.
"Wait here, I'm gonna grab a guitar" she said, while Jaune just nodded. she quickly grabbed a guitar from the guitar rack and headed back out the balcony, only to find Jaune sitting by the Balcony looking up at the night sky.
"What'chu looking at?" asked Velvet.
"The moon I guess..." said Jaune.
"I thought you just said it was nothing but a light" she smirked.
"Yeah, but I always loved the moon" he smiled. "Can you play?" he asked.
"Not really, I was taught by my uncle a few times but that was it, I didn't learn much though" she said, she started playing a riff on the guitar but stumbled over the chords and frets, mumbling curse words under her breath.
"You're not bad, just need a bit of practice is all" he said "I'll play a song for you, then you can learn off me" So Velvet handed him the guitar and Jaune tuned it a bit. He stretched his fingers and warmed up his singing voice, but this time he toned down his voice to a lower pitch to match this song. Velvet looked on with interest to his warm up routines, taking pointers and writing down notes on her head.
"Are you ready?" he asked and the bunny Faunus nodded happily. "Ok here it goes"
Michael Buble - Everything.
You're a falling star, you're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.
And you play it coy but it's kinda cute.
Ah, when you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend that you don't know it's true.
'cause you can see it when I look at you.
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.
And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.
So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, you make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah
So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
While Jaune was playing, Velvet admired the view of Jaune. Seeing him gracefully move his fingers up and down the guitar neck and expertly hitting every note perfectly. His golden hair moved like the wind every time the breeze picked up making him more, Desirable. And the outstanding view of the lights gave it a more romantic feeling, and also the sense of passion. To her, Everything was perfect and just what any girl would love. A man who can become a romantic just like in the movies, and to Velvet Christmas came early this year.
He finished his solo and smiled. He looked over at Velvet who had half lidded eyes and a sweet smile, her head resting on her lap and staring at the Musician lovingly.
"Velvet... you ok?" he asked worriedly.
"Velvet..."
"Velvet, you're not saying anything" he then waved his hand in front of her face.
"Veeellllvvvee-"
"You... were... AMAZING!" squealed Velvet, she then went and hugged the blonde by the head, crushing his head between her arms and chest.
"Can't... Breathe...Velvet..." struggled Jaune.
"Oh sorry, I got carried away there"
"It's fine... But how did I go?" he asked, Velvet smirked and leaned closer to him... Closer... Closer... until she was about an inch away from his lips.
'Please don't do a Yang, I still haven't recovered from last night' he pleaded in his mind. His eyes were darting from left to right and sweat started to roll down his neck. But luckily Velvet went for a simple kiss to the cheek, mustering all the love she has for the Blonde Musician with that kiss.
"What do you think~" she flirted.
"I'll take that as a yes then..." he said wide eyed. The Faunus still smirked and started to lean closer to his right ear.
"You're lucky I'm not in heat right now" she whispered. Jaune gulped at what would happen if Velvet... or even Blake were in heat. Let's just say bad things will happen.
"heheh...eheh- L-lucky me I-I guess" stuttered Jaune. Which made her giggle.
"Yes Jaune lucky you" she said, she glanced at her watch and found out that she's been hanging around with Jaune for the past 45 minutes.
"Oh geez, I'm sorry I have to go now, but um..." she quickly gave him another kiss to the cheek "I still have to do that assignment made by Professor Port, so bye I guess" and she headed to the door, but before she opened it she turned back around and faced him.
"Oh and, T-Thank you Jaune, for everything" she said, and left. Jaune touched his left cheek where he had just been kissed TWICE. Whenever one of his lady friends gave him a kiss, there would always be a hickey placed there and Jaune always had to rub it off. But other than that... Hell is waiting with a room available for him.
And so he headed back inside and placed the guitar back to it's previous rack. He turned off the lights and headed out of the room, and the door started to shape shift back to a wall.
'I better pack my bags and head on out. Because Satan doesn't like waiting' He thought.
