Thankfully Yang decided that today she would let Pyrrha have an afternoon training session with Jaune. Her head was still a bit sore from the drinks she had last night, and she was still a bit embarrassed and confused about what happened during the end of the night.

'Does Jaune even remember the end of our night? Or did he forget it all because he was drunk?' Yang thought to herself as she slowly got dressed and prepared for the rest of the day.

Still in her bunk, Blake was just now waking up and rolling out of her bed. Her cat ears out in the open without a care in the world. Hair strewn about all over her haid.

When Yang had dragged Jaune in last night she found both their partners sitting in the student dorm's lobby waiting for them. Once Pyrrha saw how drunk Jaune was she was a bit mad at Yang but decided that Jaune probably needed this to relax himself, so she let Yang slide this one time.

Blake on the other hand drilled a lecture into Yang how it was irresponsible of her to keep one of her friends out so late and to top it off get him so drunk he passed out.

Yang tuned her out about halfway through and was soundly asleep before Blake could even realise it.

"Don't you have training with Jaune to do right now?" Blake asked, confused as to why her partner was still in the room.

Yang shrugged her shoulders and finished pulling on her shoes. "Me and Pyrrha made a schedule. Every day we would switch between who trains Jaune for the day."

Blake didn't bother to continue the conversation. She just nodded, grabbed some clean clothes and walked into the restroom to shower and clean up.

"So what did you and Yang do last night Jaune?" Pyrrha asked Jaune in the middle of their sword only spar.

Jaune had a shine of sweat coating his body as he huffed and sliced forward with Crocea Mors to give himself some breathing room. "We went to a club that she knew about before coming to Beacon."

The simple way he answer her made Pyrrha frown a bit, but she soon waved it off and focused on the spar.

She did a fake lunge forward, and as Jaune tried to block air, she dashed towards his left and smacked him with the flat of her blade.

A white shimmer passed over Jaune's body signaling he had no more aura to put up, and signaled an end to their spar.

"What do you think you could have done better Jaune?" Pyrrha asked, trying to get him to think of improvements for himself before she told him her professional opinion.

"I think...I should watch for more signs when someone is about to bluff an attack, and be quicker to capitalize on it." He said after thinking for a minute.

Pyrrha in turn smiled and nodded. "Correct. One way that you can tell it might be a bluff is the person's stance. It could slightly change so that it looks like they're about to strike but it would still prevent them from flying forward. Like this." Pyrrha explained as she began to demonstrate with her own body.

Jaune nodded along and watched her movements with a critical eye.

After going through the motions a few more times Pyrrha decided to sit down close next to Jaune.

The silence between them was raw and awkward. Neither of them not knowing what to say. Jaune was remembering last night with Yang and her advice to him to just talk it out with Pyrrha.

"Pyrrha...we need to talk." Jaune said slowly.

"Of course Jaune. I'll always be here if you need me." Pyrrha responded quickly, glad to have conversation to fill the air.

Jaune was quiet for another moment as he carefully thought of what to say, and decided that it would be best to just rip the band aid right off.

"I know how you feel about me Pyrrha." Jaune said plainly and with a look in his eyes that meant he truly knew what she felt for him.

Pyrrha blushed once she understood what he meant and turned her whole self to face him, and wait for what else he had to say.

"I've...realised it for a while now, and I don't want...I don't want to seem like i'm leading you on Pyrrha. Because I truly care about you." Jaune said with a passion in his voice.

"You're my partner and I want what's truly best for you. I want to give you the things that you never got to have before. Things that every normal teenage can have…" He continued. "Pyrrha I...love you, but it's not the same way you love me.

For a second it looked as though Pyrrha was a poor starving orphan that had just won the lottery and could now feed herself for as long as she lived. That quickly passed however and she gave a look of a confused deer with broken legs looking up at a hunter.

"W-what do you mean by loving me then Jaune?" She said her voice sounding a bit strained and tense.

Jaune sighed and knew that he wouldn't get his point across with words. He needed an action that would truly drive home what he meant to his partner.

"Close your eyes Pyrrha...please." Jaune said in a quiet tone.

As she slowly did close her eyelids Jaune leaned forward and took ahold of his partners face and then connected the two of them at the lips.

It was a short kiss but it held a lot of meaning for the two. For Jaune it was unnatural and slightly uncomfortable even though Pyrrha's lips were as soft as silk.

For Pyrrha though, she was feeling hopeless. She thought that the moment she kissed Jaune, the person she thought she loved with all her being, that a feeling of true ecstasy would consume her and truly take off their romantic relationship. Instead it felt awkward and weird.

When Jaune pulled back and Pyrrha opened her eyes she was starting to understand what Jaune meant.

"I love you not in the way that a lover can Pyrrha, but I love you like you were always my family." Jaune said quietly.

Pyrrha's eyes were starting to fill with tears, but she nodded to Jaune's statement. She understood that what she felt for Jaune wasn't a hard on crush, or even full blown love. She felt the love of what a sibling would give their other siblings. It might be a stronger love than what she felt for Ren and Nora, but a familial love nonetheless.

"So where do you think Jaune and Pyrrha are?" Yang asked as she and Blake sat at a random lunch table in the cafeteria.

Blake just sighed and put her book down. "I swear Yang if you bring up how you wish the two of them would just hook up already I will mess up your hair."

Yang gasped in fake shock. "You would never!" Yang chuckled a bit and looked her partner in the eyes. "Can you keep a secret Blake?" she asked.

The two of them were silent before they both cracked smiles at each other. Of course a former White Fang Operative can keep a secret.

"Jaune...knows how Pyrrha feels about him, but he doesn't feel the same way." She said. Once she finished she quickly took out her scroll and took a picture of her partner's jaw dropped face.

"He what?!" Blake said with a real gasp.

Yang nodded along with Blake's reaction. "He said he loves her the way you would love a sibling."

Blake clutched her heart and sympathized with the pain Pyrrha might feel in the future.

It was then that Jaune and Pyrrha walked up to the table the two girls were sitting at. "So who loves who like a sibling?" Pyrrha asked with a bit of mischief in her voice.

Her eyes were still a bit puffy from crying her heart out to Jaune after the realization of her familial love, but she knew that the best thing to do was embrace it and move on.

Yang was the first to recover, and spoke up quickly. "Ohhh, you know. I'm just talking about how much I...love Ruby as my sister! The little rascal!" Yang said trying to avoid what she really said.

Blake nodded along with what Yang said trying to hide the fact that Yang had just told her Jaune's secret about Pyrrha.

Jaune nodded to what Yang said and casually said himself, "Well that's cool. It's just like the same way I feel about Pyrrha."

"This is true." Pyrrha said. "We...just had a talk about it." Once Pyrrha said that, everything clicked into place for Yang. "I feel the exact same way about Jaune." Pyrrha finished, and looked at jaune giving him a genuine smile.

AN: Okay well 2 chapters in 2 days should make some people happy I think. I would like to think I wrapped up the Pyrrha side of things as well as I could have.

Edit! Thank you very much to nuricombat for letting me use his art Firewall/Dragon slayer. I had to crop it a bit since it didn't all fit so you should totally check him out on deviantart to see the full picture and his other art as well!
