Symbiote Knight

Chapter 26: Girl Talk

It was early morning and Weiss was currently still in her sleepwear brushing out her hair, since they had plenty of time before classes at the moment, she liked to take extra time to brush her hair before a shower to get out all the tangles from the night before. She had to admit that she did have something in common with Yang, both took great pains with their hair. It also allowed her time to think, for her mind to wonder or to focus her thoughts. Ruby was still asleep as Yang was changing with Blake in the bathroom shower. If Ruby wasn't up by the time Blake was finished, they were going to have to wake the young girl up.

So, Weiss was waiting for her turn while lost in her own thoughts.

Said thoughts however were about a certain young man that lately she had been thinking more and more about.

Jaune Arc, the man was a total mystery to her. One moment he was this buffoon and the next a competent man. The contradictions were mentally aggravating for her at times. She liked things in neat and orderly packages, but he was just this chaotic mess of contradictions that seemed to defy labeling. Not to mention his change over the last couple of months where he went from bottom of the class to a rising star.

She still had no idea how he had done it or why he was bumbling along at first when he seemed to have so much talent. She had seen that talent firsthand like in their sparring sessions which she was finding herself starting to enjoy. Fighting someone else that used just a sword felt very fitting for some reason. Oh sure, Blake also fought with a sword but hers turned into a handgun with a ribbon she used for ranged melee.

Even Wiess' own sword used dust for range combat, but Jaune didn't have that, he stuck with old fashioned style but by using his shield allowed himself to take shots and move in close. She even had to admit that the few pointers she had been giving him in sword fighting he had taken to heart and diligently trained in them. It was that diligence that perhaps started to get her attention.

She had a lot to prove and had spent so much of her time and energy so focused on improving herself, of training herself to the best of her abilities because of it, that when she saw the determination in him to train and become stronger and better, she couldn't help but respect that side of him.

Then she thought of yesterday with his hands rubbing her shoulders as she paused in her brushing, her pale face going slightly red with a blush remembering how it felt.

'Why did I let him do that!?' she panicked in her mind. 'I'd never let anyone do that back in Atlas, but I did, and why did it have to feel so…nice.'

She hated to admit but Jaune had other hidden talents with his hands. The feel of his strong hands on her back and shoulders and then on her bare neck. She felt her heart rate going up at the memory as she pushed it all aside before she could finish.

"What's with you?" Yang asked putting the finishing touches on her uniform. "You're looking a little flustered."

"I-It's nothing," she quickly stated wishing for Blake to finish her shower so she could duck into the bathroom but like herself and Yang she had long hair which took time to wash and dry, even if Blake didn't seem to put as much effort as she and Yang did, it still took time.

"Oh?" Yang grinned leaning in her personal space. "I don't know about that you look like someone who might have had a good time. So did something happen recently?"

"Nothing happened, nothing at all," she pushed Yang out of her space with her free hand.

"If you say so," Yang grinned at her.

Weiss pouted as she turned away to finish her hair but paused. She heard Ruby yawn as she stretched out.

"Morning," she said half asleep.

"You're the last one up sis," Yang poked her making her little sister grumble and lightly swatch the offending finger away.

Weiss had to admit, a small part of her was jealous of the close relationship Yang and Ruby had. While she loved her older sister dearly, she did wish that Winter was a bit more open and warmer to her. Weiss was about to finish up when an idea came across her mind, she didn't know much about Jaune other than what she had seen.

Their time together wasn't as informative as she would have liked, she had been keeping the boy at a distance because of his previous attempts to date her. If she truly did want to get to know more about Jaune she would either have to talk to him on a more personal level, which she planned on doing. Another was to talk to those that knew him better than she did.

Perhaps what she needed to make up her mind was an outsider's opinion since she couldn't make up her own mind.

"Yang, Ruby, I have a question." She stated hesitantly.

"What's up?" Yang asked as Ruby yawned and started to drag herself off her bed, said bed swung slightly from the robes holding it up and Weiss not for the first time wondered if they should just ask to get bunkbeds or she could just buy some. There were times she was worried those robes would break and she slept under Ruby's bed.

Pushing aside the possible future disaster of Ruby's bed she refocused. "What do you two think about Jaune."

Yang paused as the smile froze on her face, she tried to play it off but on the inside, she felt her guts twist. Thankfully Ruby was the first to speak up.

"Jaune's nice," she simply said. "He's the first friend I made here, thanks to someone ditching me." She glared a little at her big sister.

"Hey, it worked out," Yang told her. "But yeah, Jaune's a good guy. He's hard working that's for sure, he's been pushing himself a lot in the morning exercise we have. He's even asked me to help with this hand to hand some days too."

"Yeah, plus he's fun," Ruby stated. "He's kind of like the big brother I never had."

"What a big sister isn't enough for you?" Yang ruffled her hair against Ruby's protest.

"He doesn't tease me like you do," Ruby took a few steps away to get out of reach. "He's a good listener and relaxing to be around."

"Why the sudden interest Weiss?" Yang looked to the white-haired teammate. "Did he finally crack that cold exterior?"

"I was just inquiring is all," she turned away feeling a slight blush at being called out. "It's just that he's been more of a gentleman lately and hasn't been harassing me all the time for a date that I finally got to get to know him. I was just trying to get someone else's opinion is all."

Yang wasn't totally buying it but before she could say something Blake came out and Weiss eagerly took the next spot in the shower. Yang frowned as she pulled out her scroll and sent a text.

"I'll meet you all in the cafeteria for breakfast, I got to take care of something." She cryptically stated.

Blake raised an eyebrow wondering what about, but she didn't push, she wasn't one for getting into other people's personal business.

Yang was at the end of the hall waited for Pyrrha to show up after messaging her. It didn't take the red head long to arrive as Yang looked her over. Even in the school uniform she could tell that Pyrrha was a beautiful woman, Yang's own little dip into trying to date a woman once before in Signal made her a bit more open to seeing women as hot. Sure, she preferred guys, but she had to admit that there were a handful of women she might try her hand again on the other side of the fence.

Pyrrha might have been such a person if Yang didn't have her sights set on a certain dorky blonde. Still, like she had told Pyrrha in the coffee shop, she wouldn't kick her out of bed. Now her sexuality and sexual preferences aside, Pyrrha was also her love rival and yet it wasn't a hostile rivalry either. It was certainly complex but both girls had an unspoken set of 'rules' it would seem.

One such unwritten rule was why she had called the redhead out here.

"You wanted to see me?" Pyrrha asked.

"Yep, I thought in all fairness I should warn you," Yang started. "I think Weiss is starting to warm up to Jaune."

She could see her face shift ever so slightly, Yang wondered how many years she had to practice keeping that neutral expression in front of cameras all the time.

"Oh…I see," Pyrrha said in a slightly flat tone as her insides twisted up a little. This was bad, Jaune was already actively interested in Weiss. Sure, he hadn't been asking her out, but he had been slowly getting to know the girl and if Weiss decided to ask Jaune out instead she was worried that he would say yes to it.

"Yep," Yang said popping her 'p' at the end. "Sucks huh?"

"It's certainly not, something I desire," she stated.

Yang cocked an eyebrow. "You know, I just noticed but you go out of your way to be polite and diplomatic. Is that what you really feel or is that just habit?"

Spending so much time with her, Yang was starting to get a feel for the other girl. She always was the quiet and compassionate one, the peacemaker, the neutral party. At first, she thought nothing about it but when she learned that Pyrrha also liked Jaune she had started to pay closer attention to the other girl. It was through that, that Yang noticed the little things about her.

Pyrrha shifted, to be honest with herself she wasn't sure how much was her and how much was habit by this point. She had spent so many years in the public image and told and coached on how to act in public and even in private it all started to blur because she wasn't really someone that liked confrontation.

Sure, she loved a good fight, because it was the challenge she craved, not to harm another person but to match skill versus skill. Most people assumed just because she was great at fighting that she loved it, she only loved part of it.

"I'm not really one for confrontation," Pyrrha stated.

"You know it wouldn't kill you to let loose sometime," Yang signed as she leaned against the wall crossing her arms. "It can't be healthy to keep it all bottled in like that. Don't you do anything to let off steam?"

"Well, I train," the read head shrugged.

"Yeah, I'm guilty of that too but I have other outlets," Yang nodded. "I ride my bike for instance, nothing like the wing in your face to feel like you're putting your troubles behind you. Sometimes I like to go out and dance it all away or just find something to do to blow off steam or to think of something else. Don't you have anything like that?"

Pyrrha shifted. "Not really."

Yang shook her head. "You really do need to let it out Pyrrha, that's not healthy. I mean aren't there moments you just wish you could just scream out all your frustrations?"

"Well yes but it's not like I can just do that anywhere, people would think I was crazy."

"True," Yang nodded. "But sometimes I would go deep into the woods back home and just scream and punch a few trees when things got really bad. My dad always said my temper was my biggest weakness, so I've tried to find ways to let it out."

There were times when Pyrrha just wished she could let it out as Yang said, let out all her frustrations and stress. Years of keeping herself bottled up and having to put on the act of a celebrity had made that hard.

"So, what do we do about Weiss?" Pyrrha asked getting back to the subject at hand.

"Well, the way I see it we got a few options." Yang held up a hand to start counting them off with her fingers. "First we sabotage things between her and Jaune but that's a real bitchy move and I'm not in favor for it."

"Neither am I," Pyrrha hated to lose and hated the thought of losing Jaune even more but even she had lines she couldn't cross.

"Well, that's out then," Yang continued. "We either continue to do what we do, and hope Weiss doesn't accidentally get in the way since she doesn't know we both like him, but I can see that happening because she doesn't know, and it would be too easy for her to get in the way."

Pyrrha thought of scenarios such as one of them wanting to get time with Jaune only for Weiss to ask him out, of course he would say yes, and those plans would get ruined. There was also the fear of what if Weiss did show interests back for once, Jaune had been actively pursuing her so Yang and herself would be out of luck by that point.

At least with Yang she had this unspoken truce to keep it fair.

"I can only see problems with that down the line." Pyrrha stated after thinking it over.

"Yeah same, so I guess that leaves only one option," Yang sighed. "Guess we should bring her in on what's going on and turn this into a fair three-way battle."

"Would she go for that?"

Yang thought about it. "Weiss is kind of competitive so this might force her to make a move, but she might still be on the fence about Jaune. If she knows she has competition it could also make her back off. Honestly it could go either way."

Pyrrha was no stranger to competition or being competitive, she also preferred a fair fight, with her opponents coming at her with everything they had as she answered in kind. Because of her good-natured way and fair play spirit she really had only one choice.

"I think we should have a talk with her, if only so she understands our positions and what she'll be getting into." She finally said.

"Yeah, I don't like the idea of backstabbing, but this is going to be one hell of a conversation." Yang tried to figure out when they could possibly do this. The sooner the better if only to get this out of the way as soon as possible. "Maybe after the final class today?"

Pyrrha thought about it. "That should work."

The rest of the day was pretty normal for everyone, although in the back of their minds both Yang and Pyrrha were going through scenarios on how the conversation with Weiss would go. The day was nearly a blur as both of them were counting down the hours until the end of the day. Yang really hoped this didn't make thins awkward in the dorm. Unlike Pyrrha she had to live with Weiss after today and she just knew things would be strained.

Part of her was thinking of maybe calling it off but she knew deep down if they ignored this it would just be a bigger problem down the line.

Finally, the final bell of the day rang as the two girls shared a look as Yang got to Weiss first. "Hey Weiss, can you hang back a minute, me and Pyrrha wanted to talk to you about something."

"Something going on?" Blake asked as she had been sitting behind Weiss with Ruby who was looking confused.

"It's just something of a delicate nature we wanted to talk to Weiss about," Pyrrha stated.

The rest of Pyrrha's team shared confused looks as they didn't know what was going on either.

Weiss for her part wasn't sure either but if they wanted to talk in private, she supposed there was no harm. Classes were over for the day as the rest of the students were already finishing filing out of the room.

"Very well," Weiss nodded.

"Cool, we'll catch up later guys," Yang waved off her team.

"Well…okay then," Ruby eyed them curiously, but they seemed to want to talk to her privately but there was no hostility in either of them. Whatever it was she was sure if they needed to know they would tell her, at least she hoped. "Blake?"

Blake shrugged, "If they want to have a private conversation it's not our business."

With that the two left as Jaune, Ren and Nora shared a look and shrugged as well, they weren't going to step into personal business and told them they would wait up for Pyrrha in the dorm. Now that they had the room to themselves the two girls looked at Weiss.

"So, what is this about?" Weiss tilted her head.

"Yeah, so here's the thing," Yang scratched the back of his head. "This is kind of about someone we all know. In fact, Pyrrha and me have been after the same guy for a few weeks now."

That was not what Weiss had thought this would be about, the both of them? She tried to think who could get the interests from both young women. Yang was hard for Weiss to pin down on the type of person they would like, Pyrrha well she was a celebrity so whoever it was had to be exceptional right? Her mind however came up blank on who it could be, not anyone in their year right?

Maybe it was from one of the other years, an older boy perhaps? She could see it, they didn't know all the students after all and Beacon was a big place with lots of students. An older boy might be more matured and cultured enough to captivate them.

But wait, she said 'someone we all know', who could it be? She didn't really know many male students. There was Jaune and Ren, but it couldn't be them. It definitely wasn't Cardin or anyone on his team. Maybe one of the two boys on team CFVY?

"Who is it?" Weiss asked curious who this mystery boy was.

Yang and Pyrrha shared a glance as the Mistral Champion took a small breath. "It's Jaune."

"Jaune?" Weiss parroted. "Jaune as in Jaune Arc!?"

"You know of any other Jaune's?" Yang joked. "And yes, it's that Jaune."

Weiss blink a few times trying to process things. "But he's…Jaune."

"Yeah, but that's kind of the point," Yang sat down in one of the chairs. "For me, I started to like him the more I got to know him. He's kind, a bit of a dork but so is my dad, he's always pushing himself to be better and do better. The work outs and the hand-to-hand training allowed me to get to see the other side of him. Plus, he's cleaned up nicely and he's gotten pretty ripped under that armor and clothing."

Pyrrha blushed remembering that time she caught him out of the shower.

"See, she knows what I'm talking about," Yang jerked her thumb as Pyrrha blushed harder at being caught.

"As for me, Jaune is the first person to see me," Pyrrha stated. "Not the famous me, or the celebrity status, just me. I've never had that before now other than my parents and like Yang, I saw his determination to become better. I always saw potential in him but even I didn't realize just how much until recently."

Especially now that he had an alien symbiote she mused to herself. That spar in the forest had been the most fun she had with someone in combat in years. Even Weiss couldn't think to say anything about that, mainly because of how close to home what Pyrrha said hit her. She too knew what it was like for people to see the family name and not the person behind it.

It made her think of how Jaune never once really talked about her family or the company. Sure, he might ask for clarifications but nothing that she normally expected. Things like 'so you think your family might be open to my family's business proposition?' or 'You do your family proud do you think you could put in a word to your father for me?' were memories that came back to her.

Jaune never asked for any kind of favors or seemed to be interested in her family connections, wealth or power.

He was just curious about her, and she suddenly realized just how nice that felt.

"He's also very kind and has a good heart,' Pyrrha smiled.

Yang nodded. "Yeah, he's been a great friend to Ruby too." Then her face darkened a bit. "I can't tell you the number of times some guy tried to use Ruby to get to me."

She saw the looks the two girls were giving her, so she expanded on it. "See, ever since puberty hit me like a truck and guys started to notice, a few of them tried to be 'friendly' to Ruby in order to get close to me. When I turned them down then they would just ditch Ruby which ended up hurting her. She's a sweet younger sister and all she wants is just friends but when they do that all they do is end up hurting her and I can't stand that."

Her fists clenched as she felt that burning anger build up. "I had to make it known and set a few examples that hurting my sister was not okay. Ruby has enough trouble making friends and I don't need fake friends getting into her life only to hurt her later." She took a breath to calm down. "I was actually watching Jaune carefully that first week in case he was another of those types, but he honestly just wants to be her friend and to me that means a lot that he makes my little sister happy."

"His friendly nature does make you feel more at ease," Pyrrha nodded, she also found his sometimes childlike innocence cute.

"Yeah, you feel you can relax around him," Yang leaned back with a smile which turned into a grin. "Plus, when he gets embarrassed it's super fun to tease him."

"Yang!" Pyrrha was surprised by what she said.

"What? I work with what I got," Yang gestured to her body. "I got looks and I'm not afraid to use them to catch someone I got an interests in. Also, we have fun together and I enjoy hanging out with him. He just needs to come out of his shell a little bit more so my teasing is just to get him more used to me so he can stop being nervous when we're starting to get close."

Pyrrha crossed her arms and nearly pouted at the comment. She wasn't used to 'showing off' to get attention and every time she thought of trying something like that with Jaune she just felt so embarrassed and kept second guessing herself. Yang had a feeling that Pyrrha wasn't the type to assert herself, so it was one advantage she had over the red head. There was also the fact that Pyrrha lived with Jaune, so she had that advantage over all of them.

For Yang this was just her trying to even out the playing field.

Weiss was silent watching the two talk and it gave her strange and mixed feelings. Yang was her teammate so while she was getting closer to the girl, she wasn't at the point of feeling they were close friends either. Pyrrha however was someone she respected in fact she held the girl's opinions usually above most people she knew.

So, if she was interested in Jaune what did that say about the boy?

All this talk about Jaune was making her complex thoughts and feelings about him even worse. On the one hand he was this young man that seemed ignorant of so much and acted like a fool at times but then it was offset by moments of competence and skill not to mention of good moral character. The contradictions in her mind were hard to rectify and then there were the emotional parts of her thoughts.

At first, he had been very annoying and didn't take 'no' for an answer, it might have been sweet if he hadn't been so overboard with everything and used some subtlety. Lately however he had changed, he was clearing showing wanting to get to know the real her, their spars were fun, and she had to admit his change in hair and clothing did make him look less like a vagabond and more mature.

She also couldn't say that he wasn't a 'nice guy' as they said, as she got to know him on a more personal level she could see that kindness in him. It was a warmth she didn't know back home, where everything was cold and impersonal thanks to her parents' marriage failing being a huge part of that reason.

Weiss also knew that like herself, Jaune had a family legacy that he wanted to live up to. That was something she knew all too well about how the pressure of family could weigh you down.

Weiss pulled herself out of her thoughts looking at the two of them. "Why exactly are you two tell me all of this?"

She had her theories but wanted to hear them herself.

"Well, Jaune still has an interest in you," Yang sighed. "And don't think I haven't noticed the way you've been acting lately around him."

Weiss's eyes widened. "I…I have no idea what you mean."

Yang gave her a leveled look. "You literally were asking about him this morning, you've never done that before."

Weiss didn't have a good defense for that, she hated to admit it but lately he had been on her mind lately. "I'm not sure how I feel about him yet."

"Well, if you make up your mind, we wanted you to know that you got competition," Yang simply shrugged.

"We wanted you to understand that there is more going on," Pyrrha added in. "We both feel strongly about Jaune, so we felt it was only fair for you to know about this."

"So, this is to make me back off?" Weiss asked feeling herself gather up an internal defense.

"Well, it would be nice to not have more competition." Yang started.

"Yang," Pyrrha said in warning.

The blonde sighed. "But yeah, it's not about that, this is just giving you a heads up that if you do decide to go after Jaune you're not alone. Also, me and P-money here have kind of an unspoken rules. Mainly, this is a fair fight, no sabotaging each other, no under handed plays, no getting in each other's ways. This is a clean fight here."

Pyrrha nodded her head as she preferred a clean fight, for them to use what they had to get his attention and not in ways that went against her morals. If she was to win or lose, she preferred to do so because of merit.

Weiss chewed on that, on the surface it was logical, but could things stay that way? She did admit that she did like to win. Looking at the two women she could see that they both held their own high standards of beauty. She knew that she herself was also beautiful however she did feel a little lacking. Both girls were taller than her, both had a larger chest, granted she was confident her legs were nicer than either of theirs, but she couldn't deny that they both had other assets as well.

Part of her felt the needs to compete to show herself as better, the same thing that had been drilled into her by her father as far back as she could remember. There was another part though, the thought that Jaune would stop looking at her, that he would turn his attention to one of them gave her a light twist in her guts she didn't like the feeling of.

She had no idea when he started to feel something, she couldn't point at one particular moment but lately she had felt this 'pull' towards him. He had gained her attention and something else she wasn't sure about. Did she actually like him? If she were honest, she wasn't sure but there was only one way to find out. One way to know for sure what her thoughts and feelings were.

In the end there were only two outcomes, she found that whatever she had was a passing interest and nothing more and she could move on, or the start of something else.

"So, if I choose to test the waters with Jaune?" Weiss asked.

"We won't stop you," Pyrrha stated.

"But don't expect us to sit around either," Yang nodded. "Until he picks then it's all fair in love and war ladies."

Weiss stood tall as though the gauntlet had just been thrown down between them. "You realize being on the same team might cause issues."

Yang nodded. "Yeah, but I'm willing to do my best to not let it get in the way, that sound fair?"

Weiss nodded in return. "That sound acceptable." She was glad that Yang wasn't her partner as that would complicate things even more so. Still for the good of the team she would try and keep things civil.

"Good because both of us got a disadvantage when it comes to Pyrrha," Yang stated as she and then Weiss looked to the surprised red head.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"You live with the guy," Yang stated. "You have any idea of how much of an advantage that is?"

Weiss crossed her arms thinking about it. "That is a tactical advantage."

"Nothing happens!" Pyrrha stated in her defense. "Besides, both Ren and Nora are in the room, and I can't just try something with them watching me, I would be too embarrassed."

Weiss could see that, if for example she brought Jaune into team RWBY's room she wasn't sure she could do anything, not that she was actually thinking that, but the thought was put in her head, and she felt embarrassed just thinking of trying to try anything with him with three sets of eyes watching them.

"Be that as it may, I don't see Pyrrha taking advantage of it." Weiss stated.

"Thank you, Weiss," Pyrrha was glad that that shorter girl would understand.

"Still, you get to see him in ways we don't get to," Yang suddenly grinned at the red head. "You ever see him change or something? How does it work in a room with two boys and two girls?"

Weiss had to admit she was curious about that as well as she looked expectedly. "Well?"

"We use the bathroom," Pyrrha stated. "Either the boys go in and change or the girls as the others change in the main room. We also knock and ask if everyone is ready before entering back in just in case."

"Damn, so no accidental free shows huh?" Yang leaned back and then noticed the slight blush on Pyrrha's fair skin. "No accidents right Pyrrha?"

The red head didn't say anything, but her green eyes darted around a bit as her blush intensified.

"Seriously?!" Yang sat forward. "Come on girl you got to spill. I've seen him basically shirtless. Was it that or more?"

Pyrrha's face was very red now as she looked down. "He still had on a towel."

Yang groaned in frustration. "Damn it, okay I wouldn't mind seeing that."

"Really Yang?" Weiss looked at her teammate in disappointment.

"Hey, you haven't seen him without a shirt lately," Yang got a smile on her face remembering the last time when he was getting rid of some sweat with his shirt on their jog. "Those abs of his, makes you want to-"

"Run your tongue over them," Pyrrha murmured but it was still heard by both girls, both of which were shocked to hear such a thing come out of the normally proper student. It wasn't until she saw the looks on their faces that she suddenly realized what she had said out loud.

Yang just laughed, "damn girl, didn't know you had it in you. I was going to say run my hands over it but wow."

Pyrrha was too embarrassed to say anything as Weiss looked at the other girl in shock, she never would have expected Pyrrha of all people to say something like that. It went against everything she knew about the other girl.

"Although you may have a point," Yang got a dreamy look on her face. "He has filled out pretty quickly and damn those messuages of his are heavenly."

At that Weiss couldn't argue, she still remembered how his hands felt getting the knots out of her shoulders and neck.

Pyrrha however felt a pang of jealously as she hadn't worked up the nerve yet to ask him for one. "Are you taking advantage of his good nature to get him to…to touch you like that?"

"At first no," Yang dragged it out scratching the back of her head. "I mean they do feel great and really do wonders. I get a lot of back and shoulder pain, so he has been really helpful with that, but I won't lie and say I don't enjoy it. You really should ask him at some point you two."

It was Weiss' turn to avoid looking at them and both girls caught it.

"No way," Yang grinned. "Since when?"

"That's what I would like to know," Pyrrha thought only Yang had gotten Jaune to do that but now she was the only one? She felt like she had just been passed by and the competitive side of her didn't like that feeling.

"It was just the one time, my shoulders were aching, he noticed, and he offered," Weiss quickly defended herself as she looked right at Yang. "You kept on talking about how great it supposedly felt so I got…curious."

Yang was grinning like the cat that caught the mouse. "Felt great, didn't it?"

"It was…good," Weiss blushed a little as she looked away with her arms crossed, she didn't want to admit that it had felt very good.

Pyrrha frowned as she needed to work up the nerve to ask Jaune for one, she just needed to think of a way that didn't sound strange. She was starting to realize that Yang might have had a point, she was too 'nice' and if she continued to act without pushing herself, she would only stand still if all she is doing is just waiting for Jaune to do something first. There were now two rivals she had working against her and for all she knew more could show up at this rate.

This whole conversation was making her realize that she needed to start being more proactive.

"So, are you now officially part of the group Weiss?" Yang looked at her teammate.

The white-haired girl thought about it for a moment before sighing. "I suppose I am, while I don't know my full feelings if they do develop into something, then may the best woman win."

The other two nodded at her as the three came to an understanding.

TBC…

So yeah I thought to try and do something a bit different with this kind of relationship and actually have the girls come to an understanding, will everyone play fair? Well maybe mostly but it's something I wanted to try out instead of the girls instantly jumping at it or always at each other's throats kind of a middle ground we don't see often.

Please leave a review if you can as I'm curious what people think.
