I don't own RWBY

Chapter Three: I'd Like a Number Four

Walking into the dorm building after feeling small pellets of water hit her head, the redhead made her way up the stairs.

Her sister had just left to go on a date and she was still stuck on a thought. Or a girl in this case.

'No, there has to be a way...' Ruby thought as she slowly walked through a narrow hallway. 'I mean… you can't just NOT be allowed to talk someone… right?'

Snapping out of her thoughts after bumping into someone, Ruby frantically stood back when she looked into blue eyes and white hair.

"Ohmygosh, I'm so sorry Weiss! I didn't mean to bump into you like that-" Ruby stopped after looking at the girl in front of her begin to laugh.

"Oh god, I love when that happens," the white haired girl chuckled. Wiping a tear from the corner of her eye, she stared back at the nervous looking redhead.

"You seem to have the wrong person," she smiled. "My name's Winter."

'Win…. ter? But she looks so much like Weis-'

"Weiss is my younger twin," she grinned.

'Ohhhhh….. that makes sense….'

"Oh… thought you were-"

"Her?" Winter finished her sentence.

"Yeah…" Ruby awkwardly said. The twin chuckled.

"Yeah, everyone always gets confused like that. Well… it's mostly just me they confuse, not Weiss."

Ruby looked confused. The white haired girl sighed.

"Everyone always assumes that I'm Weiss."

Ruby mouthed an 'oh.'

"Yeah well, if you'll excuse me," she lightly smiled as she picked up a basket filled with clothes, "I need to get this laundry done if I wanna continue wearing clothes on campus," she chuckled.

Ruby looked at her back as she walked away. 'She was pretty cool…. compared to her sister...'

"Oh wait!" Winter called out. "I didn't catch your name!"

Startled, Ruby turned her body to face her. "My name's Ruby Rose!"

'Why did I scream that like a weirdo….'

"Ruby huh…." she whispered to herself. She looked back at the redhead with a smile on her face.

"See ya around, Ruby," she winked as she turned around and made her way down the stairs.

"Oh….kay?" Ruby said to herself.

'That was… kinda weird...'

Shrugging her shoulders, Ruby walked down the hallway and entered her room.

Turning on the lights, the redhead saw that her roommate wasn't back yet. She exhaled. 'Thank G-'

"RRRRUUUUUBBBYYY!" a distant voice yelled from afar.

'Man….' Ruby whined.

Feeling a massive push on her back, Ruby plummeted to the ground below.

"You missed me, roomy?!" a girl with orange hair said as she rubbed the redhead's back with her head.

"No… ra…" Ruby slowly managed to say. "You're…."

"Hm?" the girl known as Nora wondered.

"You're…"

"In love with you? You got that right, honeybuns…" she childishly said as she continued to rub her cheek on the redhead's back.

"Squishing me…" Ruby corrected.

"Oh," Nora said as she got up. "Sorry about that…" she nervously said as she rubbed her neck.

"It's…" Ruby began as she patted her clothes down, "Okay…"

"Yeah well…" the orange haired girl said as she held her hands behind her. She smiled at the redhead. "I'm back."

Ruby looked at the upward curve on her roommate's face. She sighed, but grinned, "Welcome back."

"Gah~~ She smiled at me…" Nora blushed as she held her face. Ruby annoyingly looked back at her roommate.

"I'm… gonna go shower now…" Ruby said as she went toward their shared bathroom.

"Oh!" Nora sounded. Ruby turned around. "Room for one more," she winked.

Ruby shut the door closed.

"You're such a meanie, Ruby…" Nora "cried."

Back in the restroom, Ruby had her back to the door. She looked up at the ceiling. 'She's such a weirdo… but sometimes I wish I can be that daring with my words… Maybe then, I would be able to...' Her thoughts trailed back to the rabbit faunus. She sighed.

Walking over to the shower, Ruby turned the knobs and entered the tub.

Turning off the bathroom lights, the redhead walked out into her cool room.

'Why is it so cold in here?' she thought as she rubbed her arms. Looking over to her roommate's side of the room, she saw that no one was on the bed.

"I thought…"

"I've been waiting for you…" a certain voice said in the dark.

'What the-'

"Nora…?" Ruby said as she looked around the room. "Where are you-" her eyes slightly widened when she felt something go around her waist line.

"Caught my prize!" the girl chuckled.

"Nora…." Ruby sighed. "Can you please let go of me?"

"No! You promised thirty five minutes of hugging!" the orange haired girl argued. "You even pinky promised it!"

The redhead continued sighing. "Yeah but…. you know I don't like this," she uncomfortably said.

"Too bad!" Nora said as she hugged her tighter. "Besides… I was gone for a whole week…. I wasn't able to touch your body-"

"Stop," Ruby interrupted, an annoying expression on her face. "I'm taking away the privilege of being able to hug me," the redhead said as she disconnected herself from the roommate, heading toward her bed.

"Wha!?-" Nora said. "You can't do that!"

"Can too, I just did," Ruby said as she tucked herself into her blankets.

"No you can't!" the girl continued to argue.

"Yes I can," Ruby replied, her back turned to the orange haired roommate.

Clenching her fists, Nora stomped on the ground. "Meanie! Jerk!"

Not a word from the redhead was heard.

Making a pouting face, the girl crossed her arms and looked away. "Fine! You're missing out anyways!"

Walking over to her bed angrily, she settled in and mumbled as she tried to fall asleep.

Looking at the wall across, Ruby heard nothing coming from her roommate. Turning to be on her back, the redhead looked up at the ceiling.

'Man… why does it have to be so hectic around here…?'

Slowly closing her eyes, Ruby soon fully shut them, ready to open for the next day.

Opening her eyes quickly, the girl reached under her pillow at the sound of ringing.

Looking at the time, she held her breath.

"Fudge…."

She pulled the sheets off from on top of her and quickly looked around for clothes.

"-my life!"

Frantically putting on her shoes, almost tripping, the girl cursed.

"Why the heck didn't Nora wake me up!?" she complained.

Looking over to the orange haired girl's bed, she saw that there was a note.

Walking over to it, she picked it up.

'Hey, didn't want to wake your cute and adorable self up.'

Ruby rolled her eyes.

'But Professor Port cancelled today's class so relax and enjoy your day off, beautiful ;)'

Looking at the signature, Ruby eyed it with irritation.

'Love, your cool and amazing roommate/lover, Nora Valkyrie Rose.'

'Why….?' Ruby thought.

Crumpling up the paper, she threw it away.

"Well… I got dressed already… might as well go to the library and get Goodwitch's book…"

Walking out of dorm building, Ruby looked up at the cloudless sky.

'Looks like it'll be a warm day today….'

Going across the campus, the redhead entered a large, cool building.

'Now…. where would I find that book...' Ruby thought as she walked over to the aisles of books.

Walking down, she eyed the books up and down.

"It's supposed to be here…" Ruby quietly said as she continued to look. "She said that there were a ton of them…"

Reaching the end of the book shelf, the redhead began to sweat.

"Oh no… unless…"

She blankly stared at the books in front of her. She held her head in a frantic manner.

'Unless everyone took them already!'

"Is everything okay?" a voice to her side said. Stopping her wild movements, Ruby slowly turned to look at the person who spoke. Hands still on her head, she was looking at a girl with amber eyes and black hair.

Forming a smile on her face, she looked at the way the redhead was positioned. Ruby quickly put her hands to her side.

"Uh, yeah…" Ruby chuckled nervously. "Everything's A-okay… heh…"

Staring at the girl with a smirk, the raven haired girl crossed her arms. "Really?"

'Hm?'

"Um, yes…?" Ruby replied. Still staring at the girl, Ruby exhaled and slumped her shoulders. "No… I can't find my book…"

"What's the name of it?" the raven haired girl asked.

"Uh, why do you-"

"Just trust me," she grinned.

"Well, okay…" Ruby said, still unsure about the girl. "It's 'The Mechanics of Real World Art'..."

"Art major huh?" the girl questioned. "That's pretty charming."

"Yeah…" Ruby replied.

"Well, first of all, you're in the fiction area," she giggled. "So, you could look all you want, but you're still not going to find it."

'Of course I was in the wrong area….' Ruby thought.

"But come on," the girl said as she looked back at Ruby. "I'll show you to your book," she smiled.

"Thank you…" Ruby exhaled again.

Walking through the grand library, Ruby stared around, aweing the place.

"It's pretty big in here…" Ruby quietly said.

"Yeah, it is," the raven haired girl spoke.

"Oh sorry… I thought you wouldn't be able to hear that…" Ruby blushed. The girl giggled.

"It's alright," she smirked as she looked back at the redhead. "I'm a faunus, so I would have heard you a mile away."

Ruby looked back into her amber eyes; something about them seemed mischievous.

Walking a bit further, the raven haired girl walked into an aisle.

"The book should be…" she said as she scanned the books, she smiled. "Here."

Picking it out, she went towards Ruby.

"Here you go, free of charge," she joked.

Ruby lightly laughed. "I hope so. I don't have any money with me."

The raven haired girl narrowed her eyes at the redhead; she smirked.

"My name's Blake Belladonna," the girl said as she held her hand out. "I'm the librarian's assistant, nice to meet you."

Looking at her hand, Ruby picked hers up and shook it. "My name's Ruby Rose, it's nice to meet you too Blake," she smiled.

"Ruby?" another voice spoke.

Turning around, the redhead was face to face with her older sister.

"Yang?" Ruby said, confused. "What are you doing here?"

"Ouch…" the blonde joked around as she held her chest. "Not smart enough to be in the library?"

"Well…." Ruby stalled. "No."

Blake giggled as she held her mouth.

"Such a horrible sister you are…" Yang pouted.

"Oh relax," Ruby grinned. "You know I was just kidding."

"Yeah well… what's going on here?" Yang asked as she looked over to the raven haired girl. Blake annoyingly looked away.

"Oh, just talking with Blake. Well… her helping my dumb self out."

"Hey, it's alright," Blake grinned towards the girl. "Everyone always makes that mistake."

Ruby lightly smiled. "Well, that makes me feel better…"

Yang narrowed her stare towards her sister.

"I'm actually having some difficulty finding a book," Yang grinned at the raven haired girl. "Mind if you showed me around?"

Blake began to walk away. "My shift's actually over, sorry."

"Aww come on! Not even to a book?!" Yang called out.

A nearby person shushed the blonde.

"Sorry…" Yang apologized.

"Ruby," Blake said from afar. The redhead faced her. "We should hang out sometime," she smiled.

Looking at her smile, Ruby shook her head up and down. Blake chuckled.

"What the…" Yang said as she looked at the faunus walk away.

"Well, see you later Yang," Ruby said as she began to walk to the check out station.

"Hey wait!" Yang said as she grabbed her arm. Ruby looked back.

"How did you do that?" the blonde asked, curiosity written all over her face.

"Do what?" Ruby wondered.

"Talk to her!" Yang said.

"Shush!" someone from the library said.

"What do you mean?" Ruby replied.

"Ruby…." Yang began. "She was a sorority girl…"

The redhead's eyes widened.

'What…?'

"That was like…. against the law, Rubes," Yang said.

Ruby rolled her eyes. "Okay, now you're just talking crazy."

She unlatched herself from her sister's grip. "Besides, she was just showing me around… I highly doubt she thinks of me as a friend…" she sadly looked away. "Anyways, I gotta check this book out. So see ya later Yang…"

"Ruby…" the blonde quietly said as she looked at her younger sister walk away.

"There she is, officer," someone else beside her said.

"Eh…?" Yang began to sweat.

Walking out of the library, Ruby looked up at the sky again.

'Oh no… is it going to rain again?' she wondered as she looked at the clouds form around. She looked down again, "Guess I should-" she stopped all of her movements.

Staring at a single person walk alongside the buildings, Ruby's eyes were glued on them. It was her, it was the girl she wondered about, it was-

"Velvet…"

Still looking at her, Ruby saw that she was heading into a restaurant with green painted walls.

"A La...Jardean…?" she said as she read "A La Jardín" on the front.

Seeing that the rabbit faunus had disappeared, Ruby quickly snapped out of her trance.

'She went inside….' she thought. 'It wouldn't be weird if I...' she quickly went towards the restaurant.

As the doors opened for her, the redhead looked around. Small trees, vines and other green nature like things stood out.

'Well… it's certainly... interesting in here...'

"May I help you?" the person behind the cashier smiled.

"Uh…" Ruby looked around to see that a few people were staring at her. It began to get hotter for her. "Yes…?"

Shaking as she walked up to the cashier, she still felt stares on her.

'Oh no… I can't get out of this...'

"How may I help you?" the employee at the establishment smiled.

"Um…" Ruby managed to say without choking on her own saliva. She looked into the eyes of the workers behind the cashier. Sweat began to form. "Uh…"

"Say number four…" a voice whispered behind her. Her eyes slightly widened. She knew that voice. "I promise it's good…"

"I'll have the number four…" Ruby awkwardly said.

"Okay…" the cashier said as they opened the machine up.

'Was that...'

"That'll be five ninety-nine," the employee informed.

"What…"

'Crap….'

"Five ninety-nine miss," they repeated.

'I forgot my money!' Ruby mentally yelled.

Giggles were heard behind Ruby.

The redhead watched with wide eyes as she saw brown, flowing hair move in front of her.

Sliding her card across the counter, a girl with brown eyes smiled.

"I'll take a number four as well," she grinned. "And I'll be paying for the both of us."

The cashier blushed as they nodded their head up and down.

Ruby kept her eyes on the faunus.

'This isn't happening… This… can't be...'

"A little silly to come into a restaurant without any money, don't you think?" Velvet chuckled as she turned around to face the still redhead.

"Uh…"

"Here you go, ma'am," the cashier said as they handed back the credit card.

Grabbing it, Velvet smiled. "No need for ma'am, just Velvet."

"Y-yes ma'am- I mean, Velvet!" they stiffly said.

The brown haired girl continued to grin. "Well," she began as she looked back at the shocked redhead. "Care to join me?"

Ruby couldn't move for some reason. Her legs were planted on the ground, her mouth stayed in a straight line, and her eyes were glued on the faunus.

"Um, so is that a no?" Velvet sadly stared.

Snapping out of her trance, the redhead wildly shook her head from side to side.

"No, no!" she shouted. "I mean yes! Wait…" she stopped.

Velvet looked at the girl with surprise in her stare before laughing.

"Wait, I meant yes, as in yes, I would love to join you," Ruby slightly blushed.

Finishing her laugh, Velvet looked back at the redhead. "You're really funny," she smiled.

"M-me?" Ruby stuttered as she looked away, feeling her cheeks begin to warm up. "Hardly…"

Velvet chuckled again. "Well come on," she said as she looked into the girl's gray eyes. "I'll show you to my special table."

"Yeah…" Ruby quietly said as she followed the faunus.

Arriving to a table in the far corner of the restaurant, Velvet sat down as she placed her bag on the floor.

"It's pretty quiet and isolated over here, that's why it's so special," she smiled. Ruby looked at her before sitting down.

"I'm guessing you like the quiet?" she asked. Her breathing stopped after the brown haired girl looked at her with a sincere smile.

"Yes…" Velvet grinned. "I love it."

'Whoa...'

"I'm so sorry," Velvet nervously chuckled. "I don't even know your name."

"Oh! My name's-"

"Ruby!" another voice interrupted.

'Oh no….'

"Ruby…." the redhead quietly finished. Velvet chuckled.

"I see your friend over there," the faunus commented as she waved at an orange haired girl from afar. "So she works here?"

Ruby cocked an eyebrow before looking behind her. "She does?"

"Hey there sweetheart," Nora said as she placed two salads on the table. "I see you came to visit your wife."

"Nora…" Ruby sighed.

An uncontrollable chuckle filled the air. Both the orange haired girl and the redhead turned to look at the faunus.

"You two are very funny," she continued to laugh.

"Yeah well," Nora said as she placed her hand on Ruby's shoulder. "Ruby and I are just that close…"

"Nora…." the redhead uncomfortably said as she removed the orange haired girl's hand from her shoulder. "What did I say about physical contact…"

"Oh right," the girl smirked. "Just in the dorm, right?" she winked.

"Oh, so are you guys together?" Velvet asked. The redhead's eyes widened.

"No!" Ruby quickly responded. The whole restaurant stood quiet.

Hearing a ring in the air, the brown haired girl searched through her bag. She took out a phone.

"Oh shoot…" she said. "I'm so sorry you two," she said as she began to get up. Grabbing her salad, she put her bag around her shoulder. "I forgot I had practice."

"Oh…" Ruby said as she stared at the girl. "Well, it was nice talking to you…"

Velvet looked back at the redhead with a smile on her face. "It was nice talking to you too."

Ruby felt her world stop again.

"I hope we can do this again," she grinned as she started to walk away. "I'll see you later Ruby. And Nora," she chuckled.

"Yeah…." the redhead said as she looked at the flowing brown hair. "I hope so too…"

Still staring as the color brown began to fade away in the distance, a certain girl's hand waved in front of the redhead.

"Yoo-hoo, Rubbbbyyyy," Nora said as she continued to wave. "You in there?"

'No, I'm not….'

"Well, I gotta get back to work so I'll see you back at the dorm, k?"

The redhead nodded slowly.

"Holy crap…."

Feeling goosebumps around her body, the girl cracked a small smile.

"She talked to me…. Velvet Scarlatina…"

She smiled widely.

"-actually talked to me…."
