Woohoo! New chapter! I know it may not be big for some people, but I have 3 reviews, 4 favourites, and 9 follows!NINE! THANK YOU ALL SOOOOOOO MUCH!
ANYWAYS, I know that this was supposed to be updated yesterday, but for a cooking exam I had to cook for my family, and that took almost all day, so I had no time to edit or read this over, but here you go! I also found this band that I can use to make some songfics for an OT3 of Blake, Sun, and Adam. So, I may do that on the side. Anyways! ENJOY!

Sun was a bit mesmerized by her when she was doing anything. Something like cooking, or something like fighting. Maybe it was because of her being a Faunus? Or maybe she was just naturally good at the things she did. Either way, he was contempt with watching her cook. Being able to make twelve grilled cheese sandwiches in a small time frame like the one she had, was pretty cool. He smiled goofily.
"Hey Sun, wanna take these out to everyone." He nodded and got off the counter.
"Sure babe." It slipped so easily from his mouth. He didn't even mean to say it, but it just came out. He looked at her waiting for a response, she just kissed him on the cheek and handed him a plate.
"Thanks sweetie." She replied. He stood there for a second. He looked behind him as she walked away and he followed behind, and they walked into the living room. Seeing that the movie wasn't even started yet, but instead, another game was taking place. Blake and Sun handed out food until they were able to sit on one of the couches.
After another half an hour of watching the board game, and everyone had finished eating, the movie was finally turned on. Sun sat on the couch beside Blake, his arm draped over her shoulders lightly. They both listened intently to the show, becoming interested almost immediately in Blake's case. Sun, it took awhile longer. He sat there, pretending to watch for the first few minute, but was actually watching Blake from the corner of his eyes, watching every movement, and every reaction to the movie scenes, whether it was something she didn't expect, which gave a small gasp, or something she knew would happen, which came an eye roll, followed by her muttering quietly. But, when it came near the end of the movie, when the primary characters, which was right with Blake's prediction, became a couple, she smiled, and you could see the love that she held within her. This, was the moment Sun knew, that she was a hopeless romantic. He couldn't help but laugh. And got a slap on the leg when it became to loud for her to pay attention.
"Sorry." He apologized. He quieted down. He looked around and saw that they, along with Neptune and Weiss, were the only ones watching. Ruby and Jaune had fallen asleep leaning against each other, along with Ren and Nora. Everyone else had just left the room to go get ready for the dance. Sun watched the movie quietly. Knowing it was almost over.
When the movie finally ended, he was a little tired. He knew that Blake had enjoyed it, and maybe, there was a sequel?
"You go get ready, I'll get these two and clean up." He kissed Blake on the forehead and he stood up. Blake walked out of the living room, and into her room. Shortly after, in walked Ruby. She was grumbling as she rubbed her eyes. Yang, looked at Weiss, and the two smirked at each other. This made both Ruby and Blake feel a little unsettled. Weiss walked behind Ruby, and looked the door, and before she could say anything, she was jumped by Nora.
"What the heck?!" Ruby yelled. Getting pushed into a chair. Blake looked at them and raised her eyebrow, not wanting to get caught in this, she walked over to her bed and grabbed the dress that had been laid out for her by, probably, Yang. She grabbed her make up and a purple bow, and her room key. She walked over to the door, and unlocked it, hearing a faint cry for help as she closed it and locked it again, then walked into her teams bathroom.
She hummed quietly to her self as she reapplied her makeup and pulled on her dress. She reached to the back and pulled the zipper up. She looked at herself in the mirror. The dress was a dark purple halter dress, with two slits at the side and reached her knees, but she was wearing a black lace shirt underneath. She nodded as she slipped on the heels she would be wearing to the dance. She looked at herself in the mirror one last time before walking out of the bathroom. She took a deep breath as she walked into her room. Pyrrha was sitting on one of the beds, a long red dress on that tied at her neck, and red heels, Nora was wearing a simple light pink dress with a dark pink heart shape on the chest and neck and white heels, and Yang was in a white one as well, Weiss' was also white, the part connecting to her neck a lace, and, to Ruby's dismay, she was in a red dress, with a black lace neck like Weiss', with black lines going through it, and in between her breasts. Right now, she was trying to walk in heels. It... Wasn't working very well for her.
"How do you walk, let alone fight in these Weiss?" She whined. She wobbled in them as she walked. Yang stood in front of her. It reminded Blake of a mother or father helping their child learn how to walk.
"You'll be fine!" Nora said. Walking past her and out the door. Blake shrugged as she herself left the sisters and Weiss.
The boys stood in the living room. All of them were in suits and dress shoes, Jaune, Ren, and Neptune all had an orange lining and bow tie, Sage had a green lining, Scarlet had on black dress pants and a dark red button down though, and when she saw Sun, she sighed. He was in his jeans still, and a black dress up shirt that was done up, and a white tie, and he was also wearing his sneakers. He was laughing. Probably at whatever Neptune had just said. He caught eyes with her, and immediately, his smile grew. The rest of the guys walked away from them.
"I knew you'd look better in a tie." She walked over to him and grabbed him by the arm.
"Are we going?" She nodded.
"Yes. The others will catch up." He smiled.
"Alright." The two walked out of the room. A big smile plastered on Sun's face, and a smile on her face as well.
The walk to the auditorium where the dance was taking place, was spent with them holding hands, and talking. Not about anything specific, but just talking. She smiled at a joke that he told her, but then realized how corny it was, and rolled her eyes.
"You're such a dork." He shrugged.
"Eh. At least I'm your dork right?" He smiled as she once again, rolled her eyes. Not answering the question. He laughed at her, then took his hand from hers and wrapped it around her shoulders. Finishing the last length of the walk with him holding her close.
When they had finally gotten to the dance, it was about to start. The two walked over to the punch bowl and got some drinks. They were about to take a drink, but a girl walked over to them, Blake didn't know her, but Sun recognized her from one of his classes.
"Wow, you look weirrrdddd Sun..." She slurred out. She had one of the punch cups in her hand, almost falling to the ground. "Y'know... With you're shirt done up and everything..." Blake felt her ears twitch. The girl then went to trail a finger down his chest, but Blake had grabbed it. "What do ya think you're doin'?" The girl asked.
"Stopping some drunk girl, from touching my boyfriend. And getting hurt." She let go of the girl. Then she started to break down. Sun stood there confused.
"I'm sorry... It's just... My girlfriend broke up with me cause I told her I was bisexual..." Blake was confused.
"What-" The girl cut her off.
"Just because then she'd have to worry about me looking at both boys and girls!" Sun looked at Blake confused. He had no idea what was going on. All he knew was some girl that they both didn't know, was crying on his girlfriend.
"Let's... Get you to a teacher." Blake took the girl by the arm. "I'll be right back." Sun nodded as he watched her take the girl to one of the teachers.
"Hey man." Neptune walked over to Sun.
"Hey." Neptune went to get a drink but Sun stopped him. "Watch out, punch is spiked." He nodded.
"Already?" Sun nodded.
"Yep. Already got a drunk girl." He pointed at Blake and the random girl from one of his classes.
"Damn." Sun watched Blake walk back with one of the teachers. The teacher thanked Blake and grabbed the bowl with the spiked punch and took it somewhere. "Hey Blake." Neptune waved slightly. She nodded.
"Where's everyone else?" She asked. Neptune shrugged.
"I don't know, Ruby's probably with Pyrrha and Jaune, Nora with Ren, Yang with Sage and Scarlet, and Weiss is right-" He turned to point at her, but she wasn't there. "-here..." He looked around.
"Nice bro, two minutes into the dance and you already lost your date." Sun chuckled and shook his head as his tail wrapped around Blake slightly. Neptune groaned and turned around.
"Shut up." He sighed. "I'm going to go find her. Meet up with you guys at the next slow dance announcement." He waved them off and walked away. Looking for the white haired girl.
"It's pretty hard to lose Weiss. Wonder how he managed." Blake said as she unintentionally leaned closer into Sun.
"I don't know." He heard the song change. "Hey, let's go dance!" Blake raised an eyebrow.
"What-" Before she could even finish, she was dragged onto the dancefloor.
When the music would make a rhythm, they would dance to it. Doing a traditional waltz appropriate for the songs that were being played. She laughed as she saw Weiss trying to dance with Neptune, but he seemed to be struggling.
"So, I'm guessing he doesn't know how to dance?" Sun nodded.
"Yeah. I guess so." He looked over at Neptune and Weiss, then down at her.
"Huh, guess Vacuo, even though it isn't a shirt and tie place, now's how to dance better then Mistral huh?" He nodded.
"Yeah. I guess so." They then met eyes. "You're so beautiful." He said. He didn't notice he had said that aloud until he noticed the pink dust her pale skin.
"D-d-dork..." She muttered. This just made him smile brighter.
"What? You are." He said. She just rolled her eyes.
"Dork..." He couldn't help but laugh. He then saw her scan the room. "Hey, I want to show you something." She pulled away from him, but held his hand still, she led him through the dancing couples, avoiding a very flustered Ruby and Jaune, dancing together, both were blushing, Nora and Ren were dancing near them, and Pyrrha was looking at Ruby and Jaune, you could tell she was happy, but... The look on her face showed a small amount of jealousy, but, the two didn't want to point this out.
"Where are we going?" Sun asked. Trying to not get dragged along.
"You'll see in a minute." He groaned.
"Fine." She laughed lightly.
"Cover your eyes." He was confused. He looked around, and saw no one.
"What? Why-" Quickly, she unraveled her bow, and tied it around his eyes. "Blake!" He asked. Confusion and surprise lining his face.
"Hold on." He tried to speak.
"But your ears-" He could only guess she was rolling her eyes.
"Don't worry. Only a Faunus would be able to see us." He trusted her. He shivered a little though, from the change from very warm, to the winter breeze. "Here we are." She walked behind him and untied her bow, and went to put in back in her hair.
"Don't." He grabbed her hand. And took the ribbon. "Didn't you say that only another Faunus could see us?" She nodded. "Faunus' can sense other Faunus', remember? Don't worry about it." She nodded again. Then, Sun turned away from her, finally being able to appreciate the view. They seemed to be on the roof. The silver moon hung high in the sky, and the stars twinkled. "Wow, Blake... This is..." He was at a loss for words. "Wow."
"It is something else isn't it?" She smiled.
"Hey Bella, listen closely, you can hear the music playing." Blake did as Sun said, her ears twitching slightly. He then grabbed her hand, and they danced closer together then when they were in the auditorium. This dance, seemed more, intimate. She felt safe. She felt a little purr emit from the back of her throat. She then stopped. "Wait, did you just purr?" He asked.
"N-no!" She said.
"Right." He chuckled. Then, pulled her close once again. And she purred again. "Are you sure?" He said.
"S-s-shut up..." She stepped on his foot lightly with her heel. This made him laugh more.
"What? I think it's cute!" He said. She blushed.
"Whatever..." She gave up. He smiled. Then pulled away from her, and placed a loving kiss on her mouth. When he pulled away, he noticed the music had stopped.
"C'mon Bella, we should be getting back." She nodded, and lead the way back to the auditorium.
When they had got back, they just stood and talked with their friends. And when the clock struck midnight, the dance ended. The three teams all walked back to their dorm together.
"So, where did you two disappear to Sun?" Neptune whispered to him, wrapping his arm around Sun.
"The roof." Was his short and simple reply. He smiled as he watched Blake walk with her team.
"And what did you do on the roof?" Scarlet, who did have a little bit of a dirty mind asked, wrapping his arm around Sun as well.
"We... Danced?" Sun said. He knew what they were getting at. "Listen, remember, us Faunus', have great hearing and all that, and Blake-" He pointed at her. "Is a cat Faunus-" The other two boys cut him off.
"So..?" They asked. The boys had been whispering. They were very confident that she couldn't hear them.
"Which means-" Sun started, but was cut off by Blake.
"I can hear every single word you say." She said. They were pretty far up ahead, and they were sure that she couldn't hear them. And when she turned around, she gave them a killer look. The two boys, then hid behind Sage. Sun chuckled, Blake had stopped walking with her team, and waited for Sun, who she then walked with.
"She's kinda scary..." Scarlet whispered.
"Got that right!" Sun yelled back. "Hey- Ow!" Blake had hit him on the chest. Sage just rolled his eyes at his team. He was happy for his team leader, and nothing would change his mind about that.
"Just be happy for Sun." He said. "After all..." He smiled at them and whispered. "The sun does need the dark to rely on..." To a Human and certain Faunus', they wouldn't be able to hear his whispering getting slightly louder. Scarlet and Neptune stood there for a minute, a little put off at what Sage had said.
Even though Blake and Sun were up ahead, even at a pace that meant they couldn't hear what the other members of team SSSN were talking about, Blake could still hear the last bit, which was a bit louder then the rest. Either it was intentional or not, she knew that it must have been important. For Sage to say it only loud enough for her to hear, and not Sun, even though their hearing range wasn't even that different.
"You alright Blake?" Sun asked.
"Yeah." She nodded. But shivered. "Just a little cold is all." Sun nodded. Blake looked ahead, but then felt something being draped over her shoulders. She looked over at Sun, and notice his bare chest. His pendant shining in the moonlight.
"It's not that cold anyways." He smiled at her as she pulled the shirt tighter. Then leaned against him slightly, and he put his arm around. She smiled. Maybe, just maybe, this would all work out for the better.
When they finally got back to the house, everyone had just changed into their pajamas, and brought their blankets and pillows into the living room, and after they had pushed all the couches and the coffee table to the side, and they set up the blankets and pillows, making one big bed. Everyone had sat in the middle of it. Playing some of Ruby's board games and drinking hot chocolate, and then eventually, to help them fall asleep, they started to exchange notes. Nora was the first one asleep, laying her head on Ren's chest, and he fell asleep not long after her, then out went Pyrrha, laying the closest to the TV. Ruby and Jaune slept huddled together, and Yang thought it was the cutest thing, then she laid on the other side of Ruby, Sage and Scarlet had decided to just not be with everybody else, and each slept on one of the couches. Then finally, Weiss and Neptune fell asleep cuddled against each other, and that left only Sun, and Blake. The two, knowing that they both wouldn't need much sleep, had grabbed their coats, and walked outside. Gazing up at the stars, holding each other.
They didn't even know how long they were out there for. It was about two when they had left everyone inside. Blake yawned. And this caught Sun's attention.
"C'mon, let's go back inside." Blake nodded.
"Alright." She yawned again. Sun yawned as well. When they got inside, they just threw their coats in their rooms, then navigated their way in the dark, and walked over to where everybody was, and laid down closest to the kitchen, knowing they would probably be the first ones to wake up, Blake because of nightmares, and Sun because of him hearing Blake. Blake yawned once again. Sun placed his left arm flat on the ground, and Blake laid her head on it. He turned to her and smiled, giving her a kiss on the nose. She was to tired to care, and instead, he just gazed into her eyes that were gleaming in the night because of their heritage.
"'night Sun..." Blake managed to get out, and cuddled into his chest, she was on her side, and now her head rested on his chest. He wrapped his arm around her, and laid the other one behind his head on his pillow.
"'night Blake." He looked at her once more, before she closed her eyes. And he hummed quietly. And it seemed to help her get to sleep faster. He smiled once he heard her soft snores, and felt her chest slowly move with each breath she took. He closed his eyes, and let sleep take over him.
Over the course of the night, Blake had switched what side she was laying on, and Sun had his arms wrapped around her lovingly, his tail wrapped around their legs slightly. When he opened his eyes, he felt her stir a little. He looked up at the archway that lead to the kitchen and read the clock. It was about eight in the morning, and everyone was still sleeping. He felt wide awake. He wanted to move, but his body wouldn't let him. Instead, he laid there, and when she turned, and was facing him, he smiled. Staring at her sleeping face. He placed his forehead against hers, and let out a breath he didn't know he was holding.
"Sun..?" Blake said quietly.
"Mornin'." Was his reply. He leaned his face forward a bit and landed a kiss on her lips. She kissed back lazily.
"What time is it..." She whispered.
"About eight." She nodded. She yawned again and went to go back to sleep. "Blake... No. I have to get up. And so do you." He heard her let out a small groan. But, she rolled away from him anyways. He got up from his spot. He looked down at her as he stood, and saw she was trying to fall back asleep. He chuckled, knowing she wouldn't be able to. He walked to his room and changed into his normal clothes. When he walked back out, he saw Blake walking into her teammates bathroom, carrying clothes. He chuckled, and walked into the kitchen, setting an electric kettle on the counter and filling it with water. As he turned it on, he walked over to the arch way, and leaned against it. Watching his team, and the other teams rest peacefully. He smiled at them. Scarlet and Sage were both still on separate couches, Ruby and Jaune were still huddled against each other, but changed slightly, Jaune's arm over Ruby's shoulder, and Yang was now sprawled out on the floor. Ren was now lying completely on the floor, Nora had her head lying on his stomach. Pyrrha was lying nearest to the TV still, and Weiss and Neptune had moved to lay against one of the couches, Weiss had her head on his lap, and he had one arm placed behind his head, and the other on her shoulder. Sun smiled at them. No one outside of the three teams knew they were dating, they had ben for little over a month now. He then looked over at Jaune and Ruby again, wondering what was going on with them. He heard the soft click on the kettle, and walked back to it. Turning it off and unplugging it. He grabbed two mugs, and two bags of tea. He put the water in the mugs then a tea bag in each. He put only milk in one, which was his, and milk and three sugars in Blake's.
"Please tell me one of those are for me..." He looked over at Blake. Her hair was up in a clip, and she was wearing his sweater from yesterday, and some jeans. He nodded.
"Yeah. Here." He handed her the mug and she mumbled a thank you as she blew on it and took a sip. Sun leaned against the counter.
"That's better." She let out a sigh of contempt as he watched her become more awake and alert. He smiled. He cleaned out his cup as he had already finished. He felt a peck on his cheek as Blake set her own cup in the sink.
"Do... You want me to clean that?" He asked.
"Please?" He smiled.
"For a price." She looked at him. "I can give you a surprise kiss, at any time." He could see the fight taking place in her head.
"Fine. It's a deal." He smiled. Then cleaned the cup.
