"Can you fly?"
"Pardon?" Where did that question come- No, wait, that's actually a pretty good question, one I once asked myself long ago.
"Well, I just thought since you have wings then you should be able to fly, right?" Oh, that hopeful look in her eyes, filled with youthful ignorance.
"No, Ruby, I cannot fly," a shame I had to crush it.
"Oh," she muttered, looking bashfully away. "Well, I guess that makes sense-"
"I can glide though," I shrugged. I highly doubt she would find that impressive at all-
"You can?!" Oh, well...nevermind. "That's so cool, Weiss!"
"Well, it is nice to glide through the air once in awhile," I shrugged. "Every night when I was a child I would sneak out of my father's mansion. I would just open my window and jump out, letting the wind guide my wings whichever way they were blowing," I said with a wistful sigh. "It's...been far too long since I've last flown…"
"Oh, that sounds awesome," Ruby sighed dreamily. "Not the whole "being awhile since you've flown" bit, but the part where you'd let the wind-"
"Yeah, I know, Ruby," I smiled. It was...nice opening up about myself with Ruby. The only other person I've spoken to about my gliding was Winter, and as much as I loved talking with her, it was pleasant to have another person to-
"Tomorrow's Saturday!" Ruby screamed suddenly, disappearing into a hurricane of petals before appearing right in front of me. I had to bite my lip to stop myself from screaming.
"Ruby, don't do that!" I reprimanded, trying to calm my rapidly beating heart. I do not need a heart attack at my age. "And yes, tomorrow is Saturday. The day where you'll spend all day either eating cookies or playing around in Vale-"
"Let's go flying!" she screamed, placing her hands on my shoulders.
"W-what?" I muttered, watching the girl in front of me bouncing on the balls of her feet. Did she really just…
"Flying, Weiss!" she repeated, shaking me in excitement. "We'll go to the Emerald Forest, climb atop the highest cliff, jump off and have the wind take us wherever it pleases-"
"I'm back, bitches!" and once again Yang barges into the room. "..." Neither Ruby nor I attempt to say anything as Yang swiftly turns a heel and leaves the room, her ramblings of "Nopes" being clear to anyone within fifty feet.
"...That sounds lovely, Ruby," I turned back to my- Our fearless leader. "I'll be sure to purchase an outfit so I don't have to glide topless." I joked, earning a blush from Ruby.
"Oh, er, right! That'll be, uh...good?" she smiled nervously, taking her hands off my shoulders and wiping them with her skirt. "Yeah, I wouldn't want to see you...flying...naked…" she gulped before turning away quickly. "I'mgonnagofindYangbye!" and swiftly left the room.
"...Dolt," I shook my head at her childishness. We're both women, so what if we saw each other naked? If Ruby were to come up to me, strip off all her clothes and dance on my lap as I...I...of course I wouldn't...wouldn't...
I...I should take a cold shower.
