Ruby's POV


Weiss and I usually didn't get along, but something about this week was different. It feels like she's actually mad at me, but I don't know what I did. I know I can be annoying, but this time I did something... Something bad... But what?!

"Weiss..." My voice trembled towards her. 

"Shh... People are sleeping." Weiss motioned her hand towards the deeply sleeping Yang and Blake. 

"Sorry." I simply said and layed back down, trying not to sniff indicating the tears running down my cheeks. 

*Sniff*

Crap! I thought to myself, cursing my inability to be a silent cryer.

I heard a sigh come from Weiss' direction.

"Come into the hallway." She stated as she began to already leave the room. 

I got out of bed and qiuckly followed her, tip toeing to the door. 

"What's wrong with you?" Weiss asked in a rude, but somehow  also caring, voice. 

"I don't know... I've been trying to figure out why you hate me for a whole week and I don't know what I did! It's so much stress and I'm sick of being neglected! I just want to know why you hate me." My voice broke when I said the last two words and a single tear escaped from my eye. That's not the first time this week I've cried over this. It's been a rough seven days...

"I don't hate you," Weiss stated.

"Well it seems like you do."

"I don't. That's the problem! What I feel for you is the exact opposite of hate... and it's just too confusing."

"W-What do you mean?" I looked into Weiss' eyes just in time for her to panic and look at her feet. 

"Nevermind... I shouldn't have brought it up. I knew I would do this if I talked to you!"

Weiss ran down the hallway and around the corner before I could even process what was going on. 

"So close..." More tears flowed down my face as I leaned against the wall and slid down to sit. 

Weiss' POV

I hate this I hate this I hate this I hate this.... That's all that clouded my mind for the hour and a half I walked alone in the dark. I had classes tomorrow, but sleep and grades were the least of my concerns at the moment. 

As I made my way back to the dorms I didn't expect to see Ruby waiting for me... but there she was. In her adorable rose pajamas that only made me like her more. 

"Why are you still out here?" I quietly asked. 

"I was worried about you. And we need to talk more. But first and most importantly, are you okay?" Ruby's eyes weren't filled with tears anymore. Instead, they were filled with worry and fear. 

"I'm sorry," I whispered. 

"Don't be, just tell me what's wrong." Ruby practically begged. 

"It's hard to explain." 

"I've got time to listen. Sleeping is for chumps." Ruby displayed her goofy little smirk that I hadn't seen for quite some time. I've missed it. 

I smiled a little bit and Ruby automatically grinned. 

"Okay," I sat down because we were gonna be here a while. "I like you... Not in the I-want-to-be-your-friend way, but in the I-wanna-date-you and the I-can-see-a-future-with-you type of way. Is that confusing?" 

"I get it," Ruby said smiling. 

"I've never liked anyone like this and I didn't know if this was actually the love kind of like or the really-like kind of like." 

"Now it's getting a little confusing, but that's because words are hard." Ruby said, and I laughed at her cuteness. 

"Okay, so I think I might love you..." I said without thinking, but I didn't feel weird. Just please let her say it back. I silently begged. 

Ruby's cheeks turned crimson... Much more red than her combat skirt (go combat skirts!). 

Just before I broke down into a mess of tears for ruining our friendship with my admission of love, Ruby said, "I love you, too" and let out a small giggle of reassurance. 

My heart lifted and I didn't let out a single tear. I inched closer to Ruby as we sat on the steps. She met me half way and we'd finally done what I've only dreamed of for so long. Ruby leaned in and gently placed her lips on mine. 

It had seemed like a life time before we parted, but that still wasn't long enough. I wanted to kiss her like that for the rest of my life. I'd never felt so happy in my life. 

"I love you," I said and blushed a light shade of pink. 

"I love you, too," Ruby grinned. 

We held hands and made our way back to the dorm, We could explain this to everyone tomorrow. Right now we needed to sleep. I held Ruby's hand until I sat on my bed and Ruby, to my surprise and delight, layed down next to me and we fell asleep in a matter of minutes.
