Blake POV

I was in Glynda's sparing class I was focused on my book of notes on the white fang not really paying attention to the fight going on

Glynda: "And that's the match. Alright, now I know that's a tough act to follow, but we have time for one more sparring match. Any volunteers? Ms. Belladonna?" I looked up surprised at my name being called out. "You've been rather docile for the past few classes. Why don't you-."

M: "I'll do it."

Glynda: "Mercury, is it? Very well, let's find you an opponent."

Mercury: "Actually, I wanna fight... her."

He then points to Pyrrha

Pyrrha: "Me?"

Glynda: "I'm afraid Miss Nikos has just finished the match. I recommend you choose another partner."

Pyrrha: "No, it's fine! I'd be happy to oblige."

Mercury went down to the arena and their fight began, I went back to focusing on my notes tuning out the world around me, eventually, the bell went and we left the arena I saw sun and his team outside sun then came over to me

Sun: "Hey Blake. You uh doing ok?

Blake: "I'm fine."

Sun: "So I hear there's this dance going on this weekend. are you going?

Blake: What?

Sun: The dance! This weekend! You gonna go, or what?

Blake: I don't have time for a stupid dance. I thought you would get that.

I walked off and went back to my dorm and sat down on my bed, the rest of team RWBY arrived and stood around me.

Blake: "What."

Ruby: "Blake we want you to go to the dance."

Blake: "That's ridiculous."

Yang: "Blake, we're worried about you. This investigation is starting to mess with your head."

Weiss: "You can't sleep, you hardly eat, and to be honest, your grades have been suffering."

Blake: "You think I care about grades?  People's lives are at stake!"

Yang: "We know, and we're all still trying to figure out what Torchwick is up to."

Ruby: "Thanks to you and Sun, we know they're operating somewhere outside of southeast Vale."

Weiss: "And, the Schnee company records singled out Vale as the primary target for Dust robberies over the last few months."

Yang: "Don't forget about their missing military tech too."

Blake: "But there's still unanswered questions!"

Ruby: "Blake, you won't be able to find anything if you can't even keep your eyes open!"

Yang: "All we're asking is that you take it easy for one day."

Weiss: "It will be fun! Yang and I will make sure of it."

Yang: "Yeah! We're planning the whole event!"

Blake: "Excuse me?"

Weiss: "Team CFVY's away mission lasted longer than expected."

Yang: "So, Weiss and I were asked to pick up where they left off. And now we can make sure you have the perfect night."

Weiss: "And once it's all over, we'll return for our search, rested and ready."
