Ladybug week day 1

College days

Ruby was nervous, but then again she was always nervous about her dorm mate Blake. The two had entered Vale College for the Arts one year ago and had worked together on many projects with great success. Over time Ruby started to grow feelings for Blake, feelings that grew stranger and stronger over time, feelings she didn't know how to handle which led the two to become distant. She finally had enough and decided to confess her feelings to her. So now she waits for her in their dorm with butterflies that don't want to stay in her stomach

Suddenly the door opens.

There She was, Hair dark as midnight, eyes that shimmer like gold, and two adorable cat ears on her head. Ruby swallowed and began to speak

"Hi BlAkE…"

She bit her lip as she tried to recover from the squeak she made.

Blake simply looked down and back at Ruby

"H-hey Ruby… uh is everything okay?" She asked her dorm mate

Ruby wanted to confess but didn't know how to begin, or where to start, so she shook her head.
"Not everything is fine… I'm good"

Blake's lips went stern

"Ruby… I know when you're lying… please just talk to me… like how we used to… what's wrong?"

Ruby wanted to cry but she tried to hold on to her emotions. She knew she needed to tell her but the pain of rejection and the fear that their friendship would end was too great for her. She tried to think positively but those negative intrusive thoughts kept working their way into her mind. She sighed

"Blake… everythings fine, honest…"

It was Blake's turn to sigh now

"Ruby, remember when we worked on our first projects? I needed an artist for my book and you happily helped and then you needed someone to write dialog for your project and I helped, from there we kinda became inseparable… I felt like I could always rely on you, not just on projects but… well… everything. I loved spending time with you, Ruby. Watching and laughing at bad movies, and hanging out at the campus cafe. I-"

Ruby interrupted Blake

"Blake… if anyone is reliable it's you! You were always there for me… especially that one night, the one at the party… you saved me from a huge mistake! And-and when you did it was then I realized that I l-"

Ruby covered her mouth and looked at Blake's amber eyes which went wide but not with confusion or shock but what looked like hope.

Blake started to step closer to Ruby.

"Ruby… what were you going to say?"

Ruby wanted to run, use her soccer skills of dodging and running from the situation but no, her feet were planted into the floor. She was not going to run. No more. Before she knew it Blake was standing right in front of her, looking into her eyes, trying to find the answer herself. Ruby took a deep breath and finally confessed

I-I think I fell in love with you… maybe from the party or when we first met I don't know, all I know is that I love talking to you, reading with you, being with you… No sorry it's too soon for me to say that… I'm sorry I-

Now it was Blake's turn to interrupt Ruby as she lifted her chin up to look into her eyes, their noses brushed against each other lightly… what felt like an eternity Blake whispered

"I don't think it's too soon to say that"

Before any of the girls knew it, their lips connected. The two stood there, Ruby's hands on Blake's shoulders while Blake's hands were on Ruby's hips. While the kiss only lasted a few seconds, it felt beautiful forever. When the two parted their lips from each other, they began to giggle. Ruby felt no fear anymore, just hope now. A hope and joy knowing that she'll be spending the rest of her college days with the love of her life and, with no doubt, beyond!
