Hello again, peeps. Hey, I'm beginning to think I write lemons a bit too well considering chapter 64 pretty much beat chapter 63 by a landslide in terms of views. Anyway, I just had something traumatic happen to me, so please don't flame me anymore than the one. Otherwise, again, why are you even reading if you don't like? Anyway, enjoy.

"Excuse me, sir."

I entered the headmaster's office, bowing in respect.

"Please, Delta," Prof. Ozpin stated, "Make yourself at home."

I approached him, maintaining my composure as he asked, "Why did you hit Saber Steelcore?"

I blinked, then glanced away. I honestly didn't know why myself. I just ran up and took him out instinctively without regard to injury.

"Honestly," I stated, "I don't know why."

"You don't know why?"

"Yeah," I finished. I looked back at him, suddenly having the idea of talking about Ruby. I shook away the thought, only to get asked, "Did you do it for Ruby?"

Wha?

I looked at him as he looked back out the window.

"I'm asking you," he continued, "if you love Ruby Rose."

"U…umm…," I stammered, looking away from him. I half-lidded my eyes, contemplating what I should tell him. The truth? A lie? A twisted story?

Suddenly, a hand touched my shoulder. I flinched, looking up at Prof. Ozpin, who was smiling at me. I blinked in confusion as he turned away from me, only to turn back several moments later and say, "I do not blame you for doing something rash for the person you love."

R…really…?

"Delta," he said as he motioned for me to join him at the window. I blinked, quickly comprehending his action, joining him at the window, staring out the window with him. I quickly spotted Vale in the distance, taking in the sights. I couldn't help but let out a smile at the miles of blue sky I was staring at. I let out a sigh, suddenly hearing a knock on the door. I turned around as Ozpin said, "Come in."

The door opened as Echo entered the room to my surprise.

"Welcome Mr. Taverse," Ozpin said as he approached us. I blinked in confusion as Echo patted my back. He smiled at me and said, "You're helping me out today, cuz."

"Say what?"

I looked at Ozpin, who smiled and said, "You are going to be Echo's sparring partner today. That is your punishment."

…You've got to be kidding….

"…Alright…," I replied as Echo began pulling me out of the room.

And this is why I hate being your sparring partner!

"C'MON DELTA! GET YOUR ASS IN GEAR!

I dodged another flash of lightning, which exploded several feet behind where I was standing. Give or take, I was jumping three seconds ahead of when I probably was supposed to be jumping. I don't want to get fried yet, fuck that shit.

I raised my sword, getting knocked back by his weapon's heavy slash mixed with electricity. My hand began ringing, causing me to wave the ringing off as he quickly came at me. I raised my hand, my sword flying at him as I rolled out of the way, pushing off my hands as he deflected it, going right back at me. I backflipped, throwing my second sword at him. He deflected that one as well as I teleported to my first sword, rematerializing my second sword into my hand as I felt the hairs on my skin raising again. I quickly turned around, taking a calculated risk as I swung at midair, deflecting the lightning that was flying at me, which exploded several feet away.

Echo whistled, relaxing his stance as he said, "Alright, I think that can be a wrap!"

I sighed, falling back in exhaustion as my swords clattered on the ground. Gasping for air, I rolled onto my back, putting my forearms on my forehead, opening my eyes, mentally picking my weapons up, watching them float over me. I blinked, watching as I swung them in midair, having them initiate a miniature duel.

"Whoa," Echo said, "That's neat. When'd you learn how to do that?"

"I'm not sure," I replied as I shot them towards my sword sheath, which I had dropped several feet away, sheathing them perfectly. I grinned to myself, materializing it back to me as the handles folded into carry mode.

"Welcome back," Sierra immediately greeted me as I entered the dorm room. I sighed, walking up to my bed, seeing the red-head still asleep in it. I smiled, brushing a stray bang off her face as I looked up at Sierra and asked, "Still asleep?"

"Yeah," she replied, "What did you two do last night?"

"Not much," I replied, already knowing that she figured it out already.

I nudged Ruby a bit, getting a bit of a groaning sound from her. I chuckled a bit to myself, nudging her a bit more. However, she seemingly grew a bit irritated as she nearly pulled the sheets over her head. I let out a small laugh as I leaned down to her ear and whispered, "You're gonna be late for class, love."

With that, she suddenly jumped up from her sleeping position as she yelled, "OH CRAP!"

Only, I wasn't prepared for what was under the sheets.

I watched in slow motion as the sheets flew off of her, revealing her still naked body. Suddenly, I found myself outside the room as Ruby let out an audible scream of surprise. I shook my head, resting it in my palm as I said to myself, "Thank you, Sierra."

It then suddenly occurred to me that Sierra was the only one in the room with Ruby.

I blinked in sudden confusion. Why was Sierra in the room by herself?

It then occurred to me that Ruby never, ever oversleeps.

…Is something going on that I should know about?

"You awake now, Rosey?"

Sierra walked up to Delta's bed, sitting on it as Ruby finally finished buttoning up her uniform. She looked at the other leader and sighed as Sierra smiled at her, leaning back onto his bed. It suddenly occurred to Ruby that the sheets were getting stained. By the warm liquid that was leaking out of her loins.

With another shriek, she left a cloud of petals on Delta's bed, quickly entering the shower.

Sierra laughed at Ruby's antics, rolling off of Delta's bed, picking up Ruby's clothing and setting them on the desk nearby.

It was then that she was reminded of her chat with Ruby earlier that day.

"So why did you resist? You were practically begging to get laid by him last year," Sierra explained. Ruby, who was sitting next to a sleeping Delta, smiled and removed a bang from his face. She remained silent for a moment, then replied, "I thought about it over the summer."

Sierra raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"You see," Ruby explained, "I didn't know about loneliness until after my mom died. Then, when I Delta left I realized that, well, I really missed him."

Sierra sat down on her bed as Ruby continued.

"It was hard being without him. Some nights, I dreaded what he was doing without me so I video chatted with him a lot. But I didn't want to see him through a screen, I wanted to physically be there with him."

Ruby looked up with a smile on her face.

"And," she finished, "we made a promise not to die before the other."

"Well," Sierra said, crossing her legs, "that's a way to keep a couple together, that it is."

Ruby raised an eyebrow in confusion as Sierra turned back to her and said, "Don't worry about it."

With a sigh, Ruby laid back down with him, only to hear Sierra breathe into her ear, "And if you have a girl, I'll suggest calling her Amethyst."

Ruby's eyes widened in surprise as Sierra quickly disappeared.

She didn't fall asleep again until just before Delta woke up due to daydreaming about one day getting married to him.

"Say, Sierra?"

"What's up?"

"Where are the others?"

"Well, Hotel's getting laid right about now."

"…mmkay…."

"And Wind's trying to get it on with Lima."

"Oh. Well…best of luck to him I guess…?"

And before you ask, no, Ruby's not gonna get pregnant. Not in story anyway.
