"Here we are," Ruby mumbled.

"Wow," was all Sapphire could manage. Ruby's home was bigger than most people's. Walking in there was a short hallway that ended in a "T" shape, to the left was the living room with a decent size television, to the right was a Kitchen with an island table with a granite top in the middle. Ruby walked left into the living room and set her backpack down on the couch.

"Yeah, my mom usually works second shift, so she won't be home till late," Ruby paused then continued, "You probably need clothes right? Here come on." Sapphire followed ruby to a large set of stairs and walked up them, once reaching the top they went to the second door on the right with a large black "R" on it.

When Sapphire walked in she was greeted with the sight of trophies, many of them, little league, middle school volleyball, High school volleyball and softball. That's why she must be so strong and muscular, Sapphire thought, she plays so many sports. Other than the trophies the room was pretty plain, excluding the few photos she had, Dark maroon bed color and white walls. One window with the shade down. The only source of light was from the two lamps ruby had. There was a huge television across from Ruby's bed. Ruby was digging around In her dresser and pulled out a black T-shirt that was to small for her anyway, and a pair of her volleyball shorts. "Here, if you don't want shorts I have some sweatpants if you want," Ruby said.

"Oh no no this is fine, thank you so much for this, you didn't have to."

"I don't mind, I'm usually by myself anyway so it's kind of nice to have company."

"You don't have any siblings?"

"I," Ruby paused once again, "don't want to talk about it."

"I-I didn't me-"

"It's fine," Ruby said with a reassuring smile, "I'll leave you to change, want anything while I'm down stairs?"

"Water would be amazing."

"Mmk, water, got it." Ruby then turned and left. Her mind wandered when she was walking down the stairs, it wandered to what sapphire would look like in those shorts, and under them. NO. Ruby thought, Jeez what is wrong with me? I just befriended this person and to think about her like that? Ruby felt as though she should have known better, but she couldn't stop herself, ever since the blue girl first approached her. Her small body structure and the thick blue hair drove Ruby nuts, and the bangs and the usual stone cold expression were so mysterious, Ruby was constantly thinking about what she was hiding. She felt bad for the blue girl as well, It was obvious that she had been wanting to say all that for so long and when she finally did, she broke down. She seemed so small, so...fragile. Ruby thought, that was another reason she was being nice, she didn't want the girl so upset over her.

Ruby grabbed two bottles of water, and then proceeded to head back up the stairs. She walked into her room to find Sapphire sitting cross legged on her bed all changed, carried away with whatever she was doing on her phone. God dammit, Ruby thought, she's..so damn cute. Ruby knocked on the door, Sapphire then looked and smiled, she hopped off the bed and met the red girl halfway. "Thank you Ruby." Ruby smiled at that.

"Your welcome, and I was thinking, how about a movie?"

"With your T.V.? I think yes."

"What movie then? I'm more of a horror person." Sapphire stiffened at that. She hated horror movies. Sure for halloween, but anything else no. Not only did they scare her easily it just pissed her off when the plot was dumb, and when she would have nightmares after almost every single one she watched. She didn't want for Ruby to settle for a certain movie just for her though.

"T-that's fine."

"All right! Sinister it is then!" Ruby turned around to put the movie in with a smile. Shit, Sapphire thought, I haven't seen this one. Please let this be a shitty movie. Ruby got up and took Sapphires hand, failing to noticed the blue girls blush, and led her to the bed. "We can watch the movie in here and I can sleep in the guest room if you want."

"No."

"No?"

"I don't want to be left alone tonight."

"Oh cause this is an unfamiliar place right?"

"Y-yeah that's right," No It's because I know I'm gonna be cold and scared without you here, Sapphire thought to herself.

"Alright then, I am going to make some popcorn, make yourself comfortable." With that Sapphire was alone again and Ruby was downstairs thinking about the blue girl once again. She won't be like some of those girls who get like super scared when they watch scary movies right? Na na no that doesn't seem like her. It would be pretty cute tho- AH STOP IT. Why does the one person who has talked to me for the first time in two years have to be this attractive? Ruby suddenly flushed with anger, And who am I to think she would even be attracted to someone like me?

Upstairs In the red girls room Sapphire was mentally preparing herself. AHHHH WHY. Okay Sapphire okay, look It's just a movie. Nothing at all to be scared of It's not real. Oh who am I kidding, the movie isn't even playing and I'm already panicking. She hoped Ruby wouldn't judge her for this stupid fear she has.

As if on cue Ruby walked back into the room. Although Sapphire didn't notice, she had her backed turned to the red girl. Ruby took silent steps and was mere inches away from Sapphires ear and whispered, "Hi." Sapphire jumped and turned around so fast Ruby was shocked her head didn't spin. Ruby was laughing and Sapphire had the most precious pout on her face. Ruby looked up at said pouting girls face and awed at her, "I'm sorry I had to, oh my god that was great." Ruby sat on the bed and looked at Sapphire, She had her arms crossed and still had that adorable pout, Ruby almost wanted to take a picture. "Okay okay I'm sorry, hehe, I have popcorn," Ruby offered, The blue girl put her arms down and looked at Ruby then the popcorn.

"Popcorn you say," Sapphire took the chance and slid closer to ruby in a seductive yet comedic way. Ruby laughed and handed her the bowl. She then grabbed the remote and pressed play. Sapphire handed ruby the bowl back and made herself comfortable. Their arms were just about touching. About a quarter of the way through the movie Sapphire had her hand around Ruby's wrist. She was already shaking as well, Ruby didn't know what to do, she had never seen someone react to a movie like this. Ruby then realised her earlier thoughts were correct; Sapphire was scared. Ruby grabbed Sapphires hand and whispered, "We don't have to keep watching. You seem pretty scared." As if on cue something in the movie made Sapphire jump and put her head on Ruby's shoulder.

"We started the movie and I'm gonna finish it."

"We don't have to though." Ruby said sympathetically.

"I-I want to though, I should have told you I'm so sorry."

"Don't be sorry, You wanna know something?" Sapphire lifted her head up at the question. Before Ruby could stop herself she whispered: "It's honestly really cute." They both were blushing, though neither could tell. Sapphire began to speak but the screaming coming from the movie scared her. She put her head down once again on Ruby's shoulder.

"I-If that was cute this must be fucking adorable." Sapphire mumbled. Ruby couldn't help but laugh. She let go of Sapphires hand and put her arm around Sapphire, feeling bold she leaned down and whispered to Sapphire.

"It honestly is." Sapphire was scared, but she flooded with warmth at the comment. She began to think about the red girl more and more and her heart began to race. The blue girl shyly looked up at Ruby.

"You don't think it's pathetic?"

"What? Of course not Sapph," the red girl answered without a second thought, "We all have fears, why would we be ashamed of them?"

"Do you have fears Ruby?" Sapphire asked taking both their attention away from the movie.

"Of course."

"What are they?" Ruby took a moment to think about her answer.

"Rejection. From everything and everyone." Sapphire sat up and looked the red girl in the eyes.

"What do you mean?" Ruby looked away, she hated talking about herself.

"I'm not like everyone else and I'm scared to be hated for it."

"Kinda like anxiety?"

"Yeah kinda." Ruby wouldn't admit it but she had anxiety that every person she ever talks to hates her. When Sapphire goes home she knows what's gonna happen, she'll believe Sapphire had a horrible time and will never want to talk to her again.

"I'm sorry," Sapphire was on her knees and hugging Ruby, "I wish you didn't have to go through stuff like that, but I'm here for you now."

"Why do you care so much for someone like me? You just met me, how have you not seen any flaws in me already? Everyone always does."

"Because you already showed me your a good person." Sapphire was looking Ruby in the eyes again. "Because you already showed me you have a caring, beautiful heart."

"I wouldn't say beautiful," Ruby commented and looked down. Sapphire put a finger on Ruby's chin and made her look up.

"Your right," Sapphire said, leaning in closer to the red girls face, "you should say gorgeous." Ruby's heart melted as they both leaned into each other, their lips brushed for a single moment before a soft knock was heard coming from behind Ruby's door.

"Ruby?" A small voice said on the other side of the door.

"Flint?" Ruby whispered, Sapphire rolled off Ruby and The red girl then walked and opened the door. On the other side stood a small boy with grey skin and shiny Black hair and red eyes, the same as Ruby's.

"Ruby." The boy said again raising his arms up, "Up." Ruby did as asked and picked the boy up.

"You're supposed to be with him, why are you here?"

"He say no."

"No to you going there anymore?"

"No for this week."

"Then he just dropped you off here and put you in your room and hoped you would go to sleep, right?" The boy nodded and looked at Sapphire. He then put his arm out in her direction. Ruby looked over at the blue girl and walked over to her. She sat down on the bed and let Flint sit in front of Sapphire.

"Who?" The black hair boy said. Sapphire looked at Ruby and the red girl nodded while smiling.

"Sapphire." The boy sat still for a moment.

"Safar." The black haired boy was answered with a giggle and a blush.

"Can you say sapph?" Flint smiled at the question.

"Saffy."

"Perfect," both Flint and Sapphire were both giggling.

"Look at that Flint," The red girl said all of a sudden, "Now she's a laughy saffy." All three were now in a fit of laughter, when they all calmed down, the boy whispered something to Ruby. Ruby then looked at him, nodded, then said, "I agree."

Flint looked at Sapphire with a small smile and said, "Goodnight." Sapphire returned the comment, then Ruby took Flint to bed. Ruby returned to the room with a scowl.

"Whats wrong?"

"He asks to see the kid more and drops him off almost every time he has him, that fucking bastard."

"Ruby, who?"

"My dad."

"Don't you ever see him?"

"No. I don't want to. And I don't want to talk about him," Ruby walked to her dresser and pulled out a shirt and shorts. She then walked out of the room with a mumbled, "I'm going to take a shower."

Sapphire was left in the room all alone, with nothing but the thoughts of what just happened.
