Stele (A RWBY story)

Last Minute Plans

Weiss: "Stele! Stele! Wake up!"

Haven't we spent enough time together lately? Why would she need to wake me up in the morning.

Stele: "Leave me alone Schnee. I'm trying to sleep."

I smacked her hand away but she kept on doing it.

Weiss: "Get up, we—I need your help."

Stele: "You have the other three. Go bother them."

Weiss: "I already did, and they are all doing what they can right now."

Stele: "Then you have enough help."

Weiss: "I only have today to do it though! Not only will you be helping me, you will be helping the whole school. Especially team CFVY."

Ugh. They have done a lot for me and if the rest of the team isn't enough I might as well help.

Stele: "Fine. What do you need? What can your money not solve yet this team can?"

Weiss: "The Beacon dance. Team CFVY was supposed to do it but they have been having more important things to do. So they have passed it onto our team, but I don't trust the others so I am taking it over."

Stele: "I can already see the differences you girls want, you probably want something frilly like a doily, and Cowlick would want something more party-esque like a fog machine or something. So what do I need to do?"

I finally sat up in my makeshift bed only for to her turn away from me.

Weiss: "N-no! I would never allow a fog machine at the dance!"

She wasn't denying the possibility of doilies, I guess I was right about that.

Weiss: "Anyways, we need to go to the ballroom."

Ballroom? Since when did the school have a ballroom? What's even the point of a ballroom here? Either way we were out the door after I collected my things.

Across from us I could hear some members of team JNPR talking about the dance. Apparently Jaune has been trying to invite Weiss to the dance but has been denied at every chance. I don't understand the need to go to a dumb dance and more so with a date. Then in his case, he doesn't even realize the one person that actually wants him. Said person making their way back to the room.

Weiss: "Hello Pyrrha."

Stele: "Pumpkin."

Pyrrha: "Hello you two! I've heard team RWBY has taken over the dance?"

Weiss: "Yes we have and I've got a vision for it that with help from Stele and the others will make it real."

Stele: "I'm only helping because it would help team CFVY."

Pyrrha: "I'm just glad to see you are able to work and help others now Stele."

Stele: "Yeah yeah, enough about us though. What about you?"

Pyrrha: "Me? Wh-what about me?"

I haven't even fully asked what i was going to, yet she is already flustered. Is this what a dance does to people?

Stele: "Oh you know. There's the dance coming up and I was just wondering about it all."

Weiss: "Why are—"

Pyrrha: "Oh! Sorry, I'm flattered but—"

Stele: "Stop whatever it is you are thinking. I'm not asking you to the dance or anything like that, nor will I be asking anyone to it. I'm just asking because I heard talk of it in your room."
