Yang relaxed on the couch watching TV, it was early in the morning. As Yang was still shaking the drowsiness off, she ate a piece of fruit and saw her sister, completely dressed and ready to leave the house in black jeans, shoes, and her trusted red jacket. It had been a month since Ruby and Weiss had become a couple and the two were inseparable. They spent most of their waking hours together, and in the last few days they had spent many of their non-waking hours together as well.
"Hey Sis, where you off to so early today?" Yang said, stifling a yawn.
"Oh hey Yang, I didn't know you were up. I was going to get a present for Weiss." Ruby answered as she grabbed an apple to eat.
"Why is it her birthday?" Yang wondered as her sister sat on the couch too as she munched on the apple.
"No it isn't, but I had an idea for the perfect present and I wanted to do something special for her." Ruby said as she began explaining her idea to Yang, who agreed that it is a good idea, but as Ruby talks, Yang forms an idea of her own. When Ruby finishes explaining she gets up to leave but Yang stands up too and gives her baby sister a hug while she reaches into her jacket pocket and "borrows" Ruby's phone but she is too occupied with thinking of the present to notice this small detail.
As soon as Ruby left and Yang was sure she wouldn't come back, she pulled out Ruby's phone and scrolled through the contacts until she found the person she was looking for.
"Hey Princess, come over I have a surprise." Yang texted Weiss. She did not wait long for a response. Weiss, after all, thought she was talking to her girlfriend not her sister.
"I'll be over at 2pm and Ruby, you know I don't care for that nickname." Was the reply back. Yang stood up and walked to her room to change out of her nightwear and into her day clothes. She had a plan for when her sister's girlfriend showed up.
Weiss walked up to Ruby's house right at 2pm, she was always impeccable with her timing. The house was a modest building; single story, nothing fancy but certainly not in shambles, an average home. Weiss walked to the front door and knocked, a habit even though she had been told on many occasions by Ruby that she could just come in whenever she wanted. As Weiss waited for the door to open she wondered what the surprise that Ruby had mentioned would entail, but before she could think too hard on it the door was opened to reveal Ruby's blonde sister Yang. It was not that Weiss hated Yang, it was just that the two did not share many common interests aside from their love of Ruby and did not see eye to eye on many things. Yang stood in the doorway in her usual attire composed of brown boots, shorts, a yellow singlet, and a brown leather jacket.
"Hello Yang how are you today?" Weiss asked politely.
"Oh I'm doing just fine, and yourself?" Yang said as she gestured for Weiss to come in.
"I am doing good as well. Can you tell me where Ruby is?" Weiss asked as she walked into the house. They entered a small hall that branched off to the various rooms of the house, Yang lead them to the kitchen and sat down at the table.
"Oh she's not here she went out and she wasn't sure what time she would be back." Yang answered cheerily. Weiss had a confused expression on her face before she began speaking.
"But she texted me and told me to come over, when did she leave?" Weiss asked her confusion apparent in her tone.
"Oh she left about two minutes before I used her phone to text you." Yang answered her cheeriness never managing to dissipate even in the face of pale girl's growing annoyance.
"And why did you do such a thing, and does Ruby know you 'borrowed' her phone?" Weiss using air quotes as she spoke. Yang, still as happy as ever, indicated to the still standing girl to have a seat across from her at the table as she began speaking.
"No, but she's too occupied to notice that she doesn't have her phone and I wanted to have a talk with you." Yang said, her voice becoming more serious.
Weiss taking a seat noticed this change in the usually boisterous girls tone and realized this must be important.
"What may I ask, was the reason you wanted to speak to me that you had to use your sister's phone to do so?" Weiss inquired.
"Well I wanted to talk to you alone, and the reason I used Ruby's phone was because I knew she was gone and you would come here if she asked. Ya know it's hard to have a one-on-one conversation with you when you're always with my sister." Yang replied not able to resist the sly wink she gave, causing the other girl to blush at the implications. "Anyway, I wanted to talk about your relationship with Ruby." Yang finished.
"What about it?" Weiss asked, the blush fading, curious to what Yang wanted to speak about.
"Oh don't worry. I think you guys are cute together, I just wanted to give you the required older sister talk." Yang said putting Weiss' doubt to rest.
"Older sister talk?" Weiss repeated confused.
"Yeah, it pretty much is just me telling you that if you hurt Ruby I'll hurt you. If you do something behind Ruby's back, and I find out, I'll hurt you, and if you generally don't treat Ruby right I'll…" Yang was cut off by Weiss who had gotten the picture.
"You'll hurt me, I get the picture and you don't need to worry for I don't intend to hurt Ruby in anyway. I care for her deeply and if truth be told she is my first relationship." Weiss finished her sentence quietly.
Yang's expression changed back to her normally cheery expression and she stood up.
"Well that's perfect then, I'm glad we are on the same page." Yang said as she grabbed a water bottle from the fridge. Weiss. assuming the meeting was over, stood up and headed over to the door ready to leave. Yang noticed this and called to the snowy-haired girl.
"Hey Queeny, you might want to hang out here." Weiss stopped near the door, annoyed with the nickname Yang used to address her called back.
"Why? I thought you brought me over here to talk. We talked, so why else should I stay?"
"Well I wasn't entirely lying when I said Ruby had a surprise for you, that's what she is out doing right now." Yang answered with a knowing smile. Weiss blushed at the thought that Ruby had gone and done something so kind for her.
"Alright….Wait where are you going?" Weiss asked surprised as Yang walked by her in the hall towards the door.
"Oh, I have a date with Blake. You can make yourself at home, and remember if Ruby gets home before I do behave yourself Queeny" Yang said with a mischievous grin that caused Weiss to blush and fluster as it always did at the implications. She and Ruby had not done anything more than kissing and cuddling. Weiss had no intention of taking further anytime soon, though Ruby may have different plans and Weiss found it hard to say no to her girlfriend.
So Weiss waited in the living room, sitting on the couch watching TV for an hour and a half. As the time drew to 4 o'clock she began to get restless and was prepared to leave when she heard the front door open and a familiar voice call out.
"Yang, I'm home!" Weiss smiled knowing that her girlfriend was home and left the living room and walked to the kitchen where Ruby was standing with a gift wrapped box in her hands. She noticed Weiss and immediately fumbled with the gift until she hid it behind her back.
"Weiss?! What are you doing here? Not that I'm not happy to see you, but when did you get here? How long have you been here…?" Ruby started to trail before Weiss walked over and gave her a shy kiss to quiet her down.
"Ruby slow down, I've been here for close to two hours, your sister invited me over." Weiss said a faint blush on her face. She did not usually initiate such intimate contact. Ruby looked confused at the mention of her sister.
"Yang? But she doesn't have your phone number does she, and why did she invite you over?"
"Well first of all, Ruby check your phone for me." Weiss said with a smile. So Ruby reached into her pocket and quickly realized she didn't have her phone.
"Yang!" she groaned, "She took my phone when she gave me a hug this morning. Well that answers one question but why did she want you over?"
"She wanted to give me the older sister talk, and she also told me to stay. Something about a surprise." Weiss explained as her and Ruby went into the living room.
"What was the older… you know what I'll leave it between you two," Ruby decided part way through her sentence. "As for your surprise, I had this thought for a gift so I went out to a lot of stores to find it." Ruby said as she pulled the gift from behind her back and handed it to Weiss.
Weiss gently unwrapped the box to find a jewelry box and when she opened it up she had her breath taken away. Inside the box was a necklace with a rose pendant. The stem was a vibrant green, and the rose a brilliant red gem.
"Ruby… This is beautiful!" Weiss said as she admired the necklace. Ruby took the necklace out and helped Weiss put it on and as she stood behind her girlfriend she wrapped her arms around her waist and whispered in her ear.
"Now you'll always have your Rose with you wherever you go." Weiss, instead of answering, turned her head and gave Ruby a kiss that both girls felt was too short.
They spent the rest of the day cuddled on the couch watching movies until Yang and Blake came home. Yang merely gave Weiss a smile before her and her raven-haired girlfriend retreated back to Yang's room. Weiss ended falling asleep and spending the night cuddled with Ruby and in the morning when she awoke, reflected that her life had improved significantly since she had met the energetic girl those months back at the Boardwalk.
"I'll never do anything to hurt my precious Rose." she thought as she touched the rose pendant at her neck before she cuddled closer to her other rose.
