Yang finally arrived back at her dorm room. Ruby was sitting on her bunk, scrolling through messages on her scroll. Blake was reading a book on her bunk. Weiss was sitting at the desk, perfecting her homework. 'At least no one noticed how late I got back.' Yang thought, until Blake looked up to her partner. 'Crap.'

Blake put a bookmark into her book, then set it down beside her on the bed. "Do you know how late it is Yang?" Blake asked.

"7:30" Yang replied, although it sounded more like a question then an answer.

"No. It's 8:20." Blake told Yang. "You're not sweating, so you weren't training. You don't have any homework with you, so you weren't studying, so where were you?" Blake inquired. At this point, Ruby and even Weiss had stopped what they were doing to take part in the conversation.

Ruby put down her scroll. "Yeah. You haven't been back when you usually come back. It started when..."

"When you pummeled Jaune." Blake finished.

Yang could feel the questions already coming on. It felt like when she first went to a friend's house and she snuck out at night, only to be discovered and questioned when she got home. "You guys know that I've been bringing Jaune his homework." Yang defended.

It was Weiss's turn to accuse Yang. "It takes over an hour to bring him his homework?" Weiss asked.

Yang tried defending herself again. "I was helping him with his homework."

Everyone gave her a stare. "You were tutoring Jaune?" Blake asked, another rhetorical question.

Yang sighed, she knew to give up the jig. "He looked lonely in there by himself." She told her team, even though the answer was only half true.

"Yang, it's not really like you to hang around someone who looks lonely like that. What's the deal?" Ruby asked her sister. Ruby knew Yang better than anyone, and staying with someone who was alone, wasn't like her.

"Well..." Yang started talking. She slowly rubbed her arm, trying to think of a way to say it. "I feel bad, it was me who put him in that bed, so I want to make it up to him. He's actually a really cool guy, once you get past the fake confidence."

Ruby saw a small twinkle in Yang's eye. She could feel the urge build inside her, driving her crazy. Ruby knew not to tease Yang, but she couldn't help herself. "You like him!" Ruby shouted, drawing on the ears of the people across the hall.

Yang's face quickly went redder than Ruby's cloak. "Shut up!" She said in a hushed tone. "First of all, don't give anyone any ideas. Secondly, keep your voice down. Thirdly, Jaune and I are just friends."

Ruby was excited, after all the years, she finally got to tease Yang. "That's what they all say. Then you start cuddling and kissing." Ruby continued, and started making kissing noises. The kissing was quickly stopped by Yang's bed pillow being thrown into Ruby's face.

Yang knew she wasn't going to get anywhere with Ruby, so she grabbed her pillow back and put it on her bed. "I'm not dating Jaune, just shut up about it."

It wasn't in Blake's nature to get mixed up in other people's business, only to see what would happen. But Yang had rubbed off on her too much. "So Jaune's single?"

Yang finally cracked. She looked under her bed to Blake, anger in her eyes. "Drop it." Yang said sternly.

Blake quickly stopped teasing Yang.


Yang arrived at the infirmary at about 12:30. Jaune was in his bed, reading a book, which he seemed bored with.

"Hey Jaune." Yang said as she came into Jaune's view.

"Yang? What're you doing here? It's Saturday." Jaune replied. Yang was only supposed to come and bring him his homework on the -weekdays. "Don't tell me we have a big project coming up." Jaune groaned.

"No no. I just thought you might be lonely here by yourself so, I thought I'd come by." Yang explained. She had been holding her hands behind her back.

"Oh, well thanks. What're you holding?" Jaune asked, trying to move his head to get a better view of what Yang was holding.

Yang felt a small grin creep onto her lips. "Well... during lunch I realized you might want something to eat so, I brought you this." Yang revealed what she had been holding. It was a sandwich bag, that held a peanut butter sandwich inside of it. The sandwich had been cut into triangles and the crusts were cut off.

Jaune stared at the small bag, jaw slightly ajar. A warm smile eventually spreads across Jaune's face. "Yang, thank you. I didn't really think you'd be the kind of person to do that."

Yang shrugged and placed the bag on Jaune's lap. "I've learned a lot about you this past week, and you can learn some things about me too."

"Hopefully I will." Jaune smiled, taking a bite of the sandwich.
