Here's chapter 38 everyone.


"Are you two going to sit there and kiss all day?" Yang asked when she walked into the dorm to see Weiss and Velvet kissing on the heiress' bed, but they both blushed and pulled away when she simply walked in.

"YANG!" Weiss growled and got out of her bed. "What did I say about barging in?!"

"Uh, you never said anything about that? And besides, how was I supposed to know you'd be in here doing that?" Yang asked as she closed the door behind her and tossed her shoes off to the side.

"Ugh, the door was locked, so you should have a pretty good idea that someone is inside…and is busy." Weiss crossed her arms and glared.

Velvet spoke up. "It's okay. I'm sure Yang wouldn't have walked in if she knew we were in here."

"Yeah, seriously, Weiss. I'm not about to interrupt something like this. Heck, I'll even head out to grab a bit to eat if you both really want some privacy." Yang offered.

Weiss sighed and let her arms down. "No, it's…we just would've liked to at least get a knock first. You know we still haven't told everyone yet."

"Like I said, I'll get something to eat to let you two have your privacy." Yang said as she opened the closet to change her clothes. "Just give me a second to change. Oh and any idea on who you guys are gonna tell next?"

Velvet smiled since she and Weiss actually had a talk a bit about that before they started kissing. "Team JNPR would be next on that list. I was thinking about Fox, but Weiss still feels like she should at least talk a bit more to him first before we say anything."

Yang grabbed her normal outdoor clothes and began changing out of her uniform. "Good idea, though you better make sure Ren keeps Nora in check. I'm like ninety nine percent sure she's gonna squeal at how cute you two are as a couple." That got the white rabbit pair to blush.

"I didn't think of that." Weiss shook her head and groaned. "Wonderful, and she'll probably make it obvious in public…should we tell them?" She asked her girlfriend.

"Nora does get a little loud at times," Velvet paused for a moment. "Okay, she gets loud a lot when she's excited, but as long as we tell her not to say anything, then I'm sure we'll be fine."

Weiss frowned and sat next to Velvet. "How much longer do you think you can handle something like this?"

Velvet knew exactly what she was asking. "I'll do whatever it takes to stay with you." She smiled to assure Weiss things were okay with her and the rabbit Faunus leaned in and kissed Weiss' cheek.

"Whatever it takes…" Weiss got up from the bed and looked over at Yang. "Please bring them over here if you can. I'm tired of this…"

Velvet got up as well. "Weiss, come on. You know you don't have to rush yourself with this. I told you I can wait if I have to."

"No. I can't just spend an eternity telling one person after another. I'm not doing that to you…I'm not doing that to myself, and I am not doing that for him…" Weiss said in reference to her father. "Yang, go."

Yang felt proud of the heiress' choice then and there. "No problem, but make sure you two aren't making out by the time I bring them over." She said as she finished changing and walked out of the room to find Team JNPR.

Velvet on the other hand was thinking about what Weiss had said. "Are you sure about this? I don't-." She was cut off when Weiss suddenly hugged her. "Weiss?"

"Hush, this is no time for changing my mind. I'm not strong enough when I'm around my father, but he's not here right now. You are, and that matters more to me than anything." Weiss stated and made the rabbit Faunus blush.

Velvet let out a small smile and slowly wrapped her arms around the heiress. "Just because you say you aren't strong enough around him, doesn't make it true. I know you, Weiss Schnee. You won't be alone that day either by the way."

Weiss tensed up a bit and thought about the day she meant. The day her father would learn of their relationship. "It's something we can't avoid, is it?"

Velvet knew she wanted the truth, so she pulled away and shook her head. "It's not, but I won't let that stop us from being together. You mean too much to me to just give up."

"Y-You sound so cheesy." Weiss giggled.

The rabbit Faunus shared in the giggling and took her hand. "I may be cheesy, but you're the one dating a cheesy girl." She stuck her tongue out playfully at the heiress.

Weiss couldn't help but giggle more as she kissed her cheek. "Thank you…you're the best, you know that?"

"Hmm? Well I mean…being the best sounds nice, but that title belongs to you." Velvet smiled and grabbed her scroll with her other hand. "Oh, and I wanted to show you something."

Weiss raised an eyebrow at that and watched as Velvet was looking for something on her scroll. "What would that be?"

"You'll see." Velvet's ears perked up when she found what she wanted to show her. "This." She smiled and showed Weiss an image of a water park in Vale.

The heiress looked closely at it and felt a little confused. "Huh? What is this that you're showing me?"

"It's a water park, silly. I was thinking, you know, maybe after the others know about us being together, we could maybe go there and have some fun." Velvet explained.

"Oh…I never went to one before." Weiss blushed a bit at admitting that. "What do you do there?"

Velvet wasn't that surprised that Weiss didn't go to a water park before. "Well, there are water slides, a huge pool to relax in, and if we're lucky enough they might have tube rides."

Weiss' eyes widened as she thought about Velvet in a swimsuit, and her face lit up as red as a tomato. "O-Oh…yes I would like that very much…"

"Hmm? Weiss, are you okay?" Velvet leaned her hand over to feel her forehead.

"I-I'm fine." Weiss pulled away a bit and shook her head to calm down. "Sorry…it was just feeling a bit hot in here is all." She walked over and opened the window to try and play it off.

Before Velvet could ask her about it, she heard the door open. "It didn't take long to bring these four over." Yang said while bringing in Team JNPR.

Weiss slowly turned around and saw them walk in. "So what's going on? You said things were going wrong and…Oh, Weiss…hey." Jaune waved to her and Nora pinched his ear. "Ouch!"

Nora rolled her eyes at that and released his ear while getting a look from Ren. "What? Jaune was…" She stopped when she noticed that Ren was giving her a more serious stern look. "Okay! Okay! I'll drop it."

"What did I even do?" Jaune groaned and rubbed his ear.

"Enough." Weiss said to get their attention. "First, what did Yang even tell you?"

Pyrrha spoke up. "She said that things were going wrong and you needed our help." She then looked over at Velvet. "Oh. Velvet, I had no idea you were going to be here."

Velvet waved and chuckled. "It's okay, Pyrrha. Things will…well they'll make sense here in a few minutes."

Weiss glared at the blonde. "You know you could've just told them that I wanted to talk. It's not that hard, you oaf."

Yang shrugged. "Eh, it got them here. So do what you wanna do now, Weissy." She said as she walked past the team. "Let me know how it goes. I'm gonna go find Rubes and see what she's up to." Yang walked out and left the team to talk to the white rabbit pair.

Pyrrha was a bit confused and was the first to ask. "Weiss? What is she talking about? What is it you needed us for?"

Weiss walked over to her bed and sat down with Velvet. "Take a seat, and please close the door. Oh, and Nora…I will say this once. Do not, and I am very serious when I say this. Do not yell loudly about what we want to talk to you four about."

Nora blinked a few times, while Ren closed the door and walked her over to sit down on Blake's bed. "Huh? Why would I…is this a surprise party? I am getting a party?!" She exclaimed and Ren flicked her head.

"Weiss just asked for you not to yell. Try to at least go a few minutes without doing that." Ren said and sat next to Nora.

Jaune looked at the bed and how the top bunk was being balanced on books. "Uh…I think I'll just stand."

"Yes, that seems like a better idea…" Pyrrha agreed while gently pushing one of the books back into place when she saw one was popping out a bit.

Weiss sighed. "I tried to tell them that it was unsafe, but Ruby won't listen. Anyways, no this is not some kind of surprise party. This is…well…okay, have you four ever…I don't know, kept a secret from others?"

Nora thought about it for a second and shook her head. "Hmm, nope! I always tell Ren everything."

Ren didn't have to say much with that, since he was pretty much the same with Nora, though with less excitement when he would tell her something.

"I never really had secrets of my own. Honestly the media would be all over me at times, so keeping secrets…well that didn't seem like something I could do anyways." Pyrrha explained.

Jaune looked away for a second. "Uh…you guys can't tell my sister this, but one time…well I may have accidentally…burned her dress." The others simply stared at the boy until he turned. "W-What? Burning a dress is not that rare…right?"

Weiss face palmed at that. "Jaune I didn't ask you to tell me secrets you've kept."

"O-Oh…you won't tell her about this, right?" Jaune asked in a worried tone.

"I don't even know your sister, Jaune. Now could you please-." Weiss was cut off.

"Well I have seven sisters, but it was my oldest sister's dress I burned and…" He saw the annoyed look on Weiss' face. "Right, doesn't matter here. I'll just...yeah."

Pyrrha patted his back a bit, though she may have used too much power and knocked him to the ground. "Oh! I'm sorry!"

Weiss sighed as she watched the red head pick up her partner. "Okay, can I please explain to you four about why Yang brought you in here…or will something else come up?"

Velvet laid her hand on Weiss' as she whispered. "Take a second to breathe. I can talk to them if you want. Besides, you told me about how you told Blake, so let me take over for this part."

Weiss took a breath and looked down at Velvet's hand on hers. "O-Okay."

Velvet smiled and looked to Team JNPR. "Weiss wanted to know about the keeping secrets thing because we've held onto a secret for some time, and we thought about it. We're ready to reveal that secret to you."

Nora's eyes widened and she grinned in delight. "Ooh, you trust us that much?" She kept her voice down because of Weiss' request.

"Of course we do. But we really would appreciate that you guys don't talk about this to anyone other than Team RWBY, Coco and hopefully if things go well, the rest of my team too." Velvet explained.

"Well whatever it is you want to tell us, we'll make sure not to say anything outside of that." Ren promised. "And I know you worry about…I don't have to say it, but you won't have to. I'll keep her under control." He didn't want to outright say Nora.

"Hey!" Nora pouted and knew exactly what he meant. "Give me more credit."

Velvet chuckled. "We will, but only after you prove to us that you can keep…well this a secret." Instead of having her girlfriend stress out about it anymore, she leaned over and kissed Weiss on the cheek, which caused all of Team JNPR's eyes to widen, while Jaune himself almost fell over. Weiss herself blushed harder than she thought she would, especially seeing the reactions of Team JNPR.

"No…w-" Ren covered Nora's mouth before she yelled out.

Pyrrha let out a sigh of relief for another reason, so she smiled and was the first to actually say a full sentence after the kiss. "Wow, well I couldn't say this was something any of us expected to hear today, but still. It's wonderful to see you both have started a relationship."

"So…this whole time…Weiss has liked girls?" Jaune hung his head in defeat while Weiss rolled her eyes.

"Idiot. Velvet and I spent time together. It doesn't matter that she's a girl." Weiss smiled when she felt Velvet holding her hand. "I like her because she's…Velvet."

Nora moved Ren's hand from her mouth. "Aww, that is so cute. And see, I didn't yell. Points for me, and…well I guess kisses for Weiss."

The heiress blushed again and didn't let her smile fall. "Yes, I suppose that does mean that. As long as Velvet is happy to let me have such a reward." Velvet giggled and responded with a kiss on Weiss' cheek.

Ren thought about Nora for a moment when he saw Velvet kiss the heiress. "I can still say for the whole team that we won't let anyone hear about this. And congrats by the way." He offered them a smile.

Weiss was glad that Team JNPR wasn't overreacting, though she did notice Jaune looked a bit disappointed. "Jaune, does it really bother you that I'm dating Velvet?"

Jaune instantly shook his head. "No! No…I just…wasn't expecting it is all. I'm really happy for you, since…well you're happy being with her."

The heiress sighed and walked over to Pyrrha suddenly. "Can we talk?"

Pyrrha was a little confused, but nodded anyways. "Sure, Weiss." She felt the heiress drag her out of the dorm and she closed the door behind her. "Is something wrong?"

"Yes, but I don't want to be rude about this." Weiss took a breath. "Is there something wrong with him? I mean, he did flirt with me that one time, but that was just it. It was one time."

Pyrrha frowned. "He…I suppose he just likes you is all."

"He shouldn't. Even if I wasn't with…well you know," Weiss didn't want to say anything specific in case someone was close by. "Jaune still shouldn't think about me that way. At most he is a friend."

Hearing that made Pyrrha hopeful, but she also didn't want to see Jaune saddened by hearing that. "Well, maybe try telling him about-."

"No. He's too dense, and honestly at this point he should know it won't be a thing." Weiss sighed. "I'm sorry for dragging you out here. I just…you're his partner and I was hoping you could maybe get him to relax."

"O-Oh, well I can talk to him for you then." Pyrrha blushed since she thought about how she'd talk to Jaune about the situation.

Weiss smiled. "Thank you, Pyrrha. If anyone can get that boy to move on from something as small as a one-time flirt, then it's you."

"R-Right. I'll make sure that he gets the picture. Um, and if I may…Velvet, I'm happy-." Pyrrha stopped when Weiss covered her mouth with her hand.

"Hush…You don't know if…Ugh, I hate this." Weiss dropped her hand and groaned. "Let's go back in…"

Pyrrha had a feeling that Weiss was upset about having to keep things with Velvet a secret, so she simply nodded and followed her back inside.

"Uh, what was that about?" Jaune asked when the two girls walked back in.

Weiss pointed to Pyrrha. "You can speak with Pyrrha about that, but for now I need to remind you four not to say anything about Velvet and I. At least…at least not yet."

Velvet's ears perked up a bit and she smiled when she heard Weiss say that, since it proved the heiress would eventually be okay with going public.

"Right!" Nora saluted. "Trust me. I will prove to all of you that I, Nora Valkyrie can easily keep a secret from people. I won't even tell Ren."

Weiss blinked a few times, confused completely at what she said. "Nora…Ren is right there, and he knows too. He was literally sitting next to you when we-."

"Nope, I can't hear you." Nora said while plugging her ears up. "I'm not saying a word. Now let's go! I wanna listen to some music and I can't hear a thing."

Ren stood up and pulled Nora's hands away from her ears. "That's because you were covering your ears, Nora. And I know you want to prove you can keep this secret, but you don't have to."

Nora smiled and giggled a bit. "That was just a joke, silly. Of course I know you know too…though seriously, I wanna listen to music!"

Weiss rolled her eyes. "You can go then…no one is stopping you."

"Right!" Nora got up and ran out of the dorm as she went to her room.

"I don't think I need to say it." Weiss said as she looked to Ren.

"No, you don't. But I'm positive that she won't be a problem. Besides, you said you trusted us so that means you trust her too." Ren noted with a smile as he walked out to the other room.

Weiss couldn't deny that and she sat next to Velvet while looking over at Pyrrha and Jaune. "Sorry we took any time out of your day. I…I'm just tired of…of making her-."

Velvet silenced her with a kiss and glanced over at Pyrrha to wave her off, while Pyrrha knew what that mean. "Jaune, I wanted to spar a bit with you…if you wouldn't mind." Pyrrha said to her leader as she wanted to get him away from the room.

Jaune actually didn't look towards the white rabbit pair when Velvet kissed Weiss, since he wanted to respect their privacy. "Y-Yeah. Sparring sounds good…um…can you lead me out of the room?"

Pyrrha giggled and grabbed his arm. "Of course." While she walked her partner out, she thought about how Weiss and Velvet got together, so it sparked a few ideas.

After Pyrrha closed the door on the way out, Velvet focused on the kiss and pushed her girlfriend back onto the bed, since she didn't want Weiss to keep on saying that she was causing problems.

I won't let you talk down on yourself. I care too much about you to let that keep happening.

Velvet knew there would be times where it would still happen, but she promised to try her hardest to keep it from happening as much.

Slowly the rabbit Faunus pulled away from the kiss and looked down at the heiress with a smile. "Are you done being silly?"

Weiss was blushing from the way she looked up at her girlfriend, and how she was being pinned on the bed. "I-I-I…um…y-you're on top of me…"

Velvet chuckled and moved her hand over to brush Weiss' hair a bit. "Is that a bad thing?"

"N-No…" Weiss' eyes widened when she saw Velvet lowering herself down for another kiss, but this time she didn't think twice and leaned up, the two connecting their lips.

"Ruby was busy and I saw JNPR leaving so…Oh sheesh you two." Yang shook her head and grinned when she walked in, but that time the two girls didn't look towards her and continued to kiss. "Huh…not gonna lie, didn't think you'd actually be doing this since the door wasn't locked." Still, the white rabbit pair paid no attention to her. "Well…I'll just go. And yes, I'll lock the door." Yang smirked and playfully rolled her eyes as she walked out and locked the door. "Those two." She chuckled and walked off.


This chapter was meant to be something a bit different, but I wanted to get Weiss to get things going a bit faster with talking to their friends about their relationship. I still have something planned for a certain someone though. And I've said this in my other stories, but I wanted to apologize for taking so long on chapters. I needed a break from RWBY.

To JJ- Yeah having something dragged on too long is a bit much, so I'm glad you understand why it ended there. And they'll definitely have a date on their own. I just want to see how fun a water park chapter could be. Also that's nice to hear that my stories have affected you in some way. Hopefully a good way of course.

I hoped you all enjoyed chapter 38. Remember, reviews are welcomed, but not required. See you all in chapter 39.
