"Roman.", Yang finished. The red haired man walked into the closet. Yang begrudgingly pushed Ruby into the closet next to Roman. Then she pointed at Roman and said, "Hurt her and I will kill you." Yang slammed the door shut.

Ruby turned the light on to see and looked at the former villain. 'He may no longer be a villain but he still wasn't nice either.', Ruby thought to herself. Ruby tried to stay silent but the lack of sound got to her.

"So how's Neo doing since she started at Beacon?", Ruby asked crossing her arms. "That's not any of your business, Red.", Roman answered. Ruby glared at him. "You don't have to be so defensive. We're on the same side now. I'm just trying to be nice and make conversation.", Ruby said and turned to face the door instead.

Roman sighs and leans against the wall. "I know but being closed off and rude is just a automatic habit I picked up over my years as villain. One that I just can't figure out how to break.", he says to Ruby.

Ruby's eyes went wide and she turned to face him again. Ruby squealed and said, "Roman that's a big step to changing you just did by admitting you have a problem." Ruby then started chattering about all the ways they could prevent him from being so rude to people while he listened.

Several minutes passed in ease for duo as Ruby went on. Soon though doorknob began to jiggle. Then Yang yelled through door, "Your time is up but the seems to be jammed. I'll be back in a minute with some tools."

"Finally. We'll be free.", Roman said. "Hey it wasn't so bad.", Ruby said playfully hit him on the bicep. The two began laughing and smiled at each other. They were standing mere inches apart still smiling when Yang got the door opan. The duo left the closet but instead of parting from each other they sat in the corner together and begin talking again.
