The beginning of the new school year at Beacon Academy had arrived and the second, third, and fourth year teams were filing in from their homes across Remnant.
Team RWBY had just landed in one of the transports ferrying students from Vale to Beacon.
"So where are we going exactly." Yang asked, carrying both her and Ruby's suitcases.
"Professor Goodwitch sent me the number for our new dorm so I guess there first?" Ruby replied in more a of questioning way then a statement, her scroll in her hand as she checked over the information she had been sent.
"I'll just be happy to have a shower. That flight took forever." Weiss whined, referring to the how slow the transports between continents were.
"What me to join you Ice Queen?" Yang asked, winking suggestively as Weiss and earning herself a death glare before Weiss stormed off.
"You have no subtlety Yang." Blake sighed before wrapping an arm around Ruby's shoulders and walking off towards their new dorm, leaving a stumped Yang behind.
After Yang had come out of her stupor and the group had found where Weiss had stormed off to, Team RWBY finally made it to their new dorm.
The inside of the dorm itself wasn't much different from their dorm last year with four beds against the wall on the opposite side of the door, two on each side of the window, a waist high bookshelf running the length of the window between the two sets of beds and four desks against the wall with the door separating the desks into two sets. The walls were painted a cream colour for two thirds of the wall from the ceiling down and a dark grey for the final third. The only major difference between their first year dorm and their new dorm was that the room was slightly larger due to the school needing less dorms for each year as there were less hunter teams each year due to dropouts, severe injuries and failing classmen.
"So… set up the bunkbeds again?" Yang suggested, dumping hers and Ruby's luggage on the closet desk once she was inside the dorm.
"We could just move the beds together." Ruby mumbled, tapping her index fingers together.
"Are you suggesting you and I share a bed Ruby?" Blake teased, causing a deep blush to spread across Ruby's face.
"I mean i'm up for that as long as you two behave." Yang replied, her overprotective sister side showing.
"Just put it to a vote." Weiss sighed, knowing how this vote would end.
"So all for combining the beds into pairs?" Ruby asked as three hands, including her own, were raised into the air.
"Great let's get this room setup." Yang announced before starting to push two of the beds together.
After a couple hours of moving beds, putting up posters and organising books, the girls had finished decorating their dorm. Ruby and Blake had claimed the left set of beds, with Ruby rigging ropes to the roof again to hold a sheet to act as a curtain for their beds to separate them from the watchful eye of Yang while Weiss had Yang had claimed the right set of beds with Weiss' dust suitcases sitting at the end of the beds while Yang's achieve men poster hung above the headboard.
"Well that's done so now what now?" Yang queried as she looked around the room at her teammates.
"I am going to have a shower and then we are having a talk." Weiss coldly replied before spinning on her heel and entering the connected bathroom.
"I screwed up." Yang sighed before faceplanting onto her bed
"It will be ok Yang." Ruby said in an attempt to cheer her sister up.
"Weiss is scared about your relationship getting out and the news getting back to her family." Blake replied.
"I know it's just hard you know. I love her and I want everyone to know that and how wonderful she is." Yang retorted now leaning on her elbows for support so her speech wasn't muffled by the bed.
"Just give her time Yang and she will open up to the idea of letting people know more." Blake said, walking over and sitting on her bed next to Ruby.
"Yeah I mean it took her two days before she told us about it but she still opened up to it." Ruby replied cheerfully.
"That was because you walked in on us making out and then slammed the door and ran off to god's knows where." Yang deadpanned, the image of Weiss' fearful face flashing through her head.
Ruby just shuddered at the memory as Blake shook her head at her girlfriend's antics.
"Have you told your dad or uncle yet?" Blake asked, already certain on what the answer would be.
"Not exactly… he knows we are talking again but I didn't tell him we are dating. Weiss Is worried about them telling someone about it from dad or Qrow." Yang replied crestfallen.
"You should tell dad. You know how he gets with secrets." Ruby replied, remembering back to her childhood with Yang.
"I know… I'll try talk to Weiss about it later." Yang said, sad that she has to lie to her family and friends.
After Weiss had come out of the bathroom, Ruby and Blake left the dorm so that Yang and Weiss could talk.
"Weiss before you start I know I need to be more subtle and I'm sorry. I just need some time to adjust to the situation." Yang quickly said, hoping to end the upcoming argument there.
"I'm… sorry as well. I know this isn't easy for you and I may have overreacted." Weiss replied, trying her best to apologise.
"I guess we're both a bit unsure huh." Yang stated, earning her a slight nod from Weiss.
"Is there anything else?" Weiss nervously asked, seeming to anticipate the following question
"Yeah um I know you want to keep our relationship a secret but I feel bad having to lie to my father about us." Yang said, staring at the ground.
"Yang I know know…" Weiss started before being interrupted by Yang.
"I know you're scared about your family it's just growing up dad taught us to be honest with him about anything." Yang said, looking at Weiss pleadingly.
There was a tense silence in the room for a few moments before Weiss finally broke the silence.
"Fine." Weiss sighed before a squeak slipped past her lips as Yang picked her up off the ground in a bear hug.
"Thank you thank you thank you." Yang cheered as she spun herself and Weiss around on the spot.
"Put me down your brute!" Weiss shrieked, glaring at Yang once her feet were back on solid ground before sighing and losing all anger towards Yang thanks to her award winning smile.
Yang grabbed her scroll off the top of the bookshelf before pulling Weiss down next to her on the bed. Dialing her father's scroll number, Yang turned the scroll sideways so both herself and Weiss would be on screen
"Hey Yang, hello Weiss." Taiyang said, his face coming into view on Yang's scroll.
"Hey dad are you busy?" Yang asked nervously.
"I've always got time for you and you might even be able to stop Qrow drinking for a while." Taiyang joked earning him a snarky remark from Qrow who shoved his way into frame.
"Hey firecracker, ice princess." Qrow slurred earning an eye roll from Taiyang.
"Princess?" Yang queried, confused by her uncle's nickname for her girlfriend.
"Her sister is the ice queen." Qrow grunted.
"Anyway you needed to talk to us?" Taiyang asked, trying to return the conversation to its original path.
"Yeah about that. I need you both to promise you won't tell anyone about it." Yang said while Weiss nervously played with her hands.
"Yang what's wrong? Did something bad happen?" Taiyang asked, worry evident in his eyes.
"No no nothing bad happened I just need you to promise me." Yang replied, becoming more worried about what she was going to say.
"Ok Yang I promise." Taiyang said, still looking concerned.
"Yeah I'll keep quiet." Qrow said before taking a sip from his flask.
"Ok so a couple days before we left for Beacon Weiss and I started… dating." Yang sheepishly spoke.
There was a moment of silence before Taiyang released a held breath.
"Hunny you made it sounds so much worse than it is but I'm glad you two are happy. Taiyang sighed in relief.
"I'm sorry about that. It's just… if my father were to find out about us i'm afraid of what he would do." Weiss replied
"Well you won't have to worry about us telling anyone, just look after my daughter." Taiyang said reassuringly.
"I will. I promise you." Weiss replied, staring at Yang out of the corner of her eye.
"By the way i'll be visiting Beacon in a couple days by Ozpin's orders so when I get there I want to talk with you Weiss.
"Of course." Weiss curtly replied, scared of what Qrow had in store for her.
"Well I've got to finish packing for a hunt so I'll leave you kids to have fun." Qrow replied before walking out of the shot.
"I've got to finish some last minute details to fix up for the new students as well so I'll talk to you soon Yang." Taiyang spoke.
"Ok, Ruby and I will try and call you once classes start back up." Yang replied, holding Weiss' hand just out of sight.
"Goodnight you two." Taiyang said, smiling at the two girls on the screen.
"Goodnight." the girls said in unison before hanging up, leaving the pair alone in the dorm.
Hey look I'm back. It's a miracle!
Pokemon Sun has basically taken over my life and is holding it hostage. If you can help free me please let me know.
This story probably won't go back to a weekly update as the last few chapters of the first arc were rushed to try and keep up that schedule while also trying to finish off When Your World Falls Apart and adding more to Our Dreams Become Nightmares.
Oh and for anyone wondering why this chapter seems solely centred on Freezerburn, don't worry we will return to your usual ladybug fluff shortly
As always if you enjoyed, hated, have constructive criticism or have a question please let me know so I can make this story and any future stories I write better.
Thanks for reading and have an awesome day.
