A Week Later

Ruby's POV

I stretch as I get up from bed. Yang and Weiss groan loud from the alarm clock while Blake just shoots it with Gambol Shroud.

"Blake, that's the fourth alarm clock this week!" I think she hissed at me and rolled over in her bed. With a smirk, I grab my clothes and run towards the bathroom. Shouting back at my team, "Dibs on getting the shower first!" Just as I closed the door, I hear a loud bang against the door and Yang yelling in frustration. I giggle at that before noticing a note fall to the bathroom floor. Checking it out I see it's from (Y/N). Oh, that's sweet, he gave me a note to remind me about the training session that Professor Goodwitch has set up for my team, JNPR, him, and a couple of others. He must have put it in my pocket the last time we studied. I smile and make a note to thank him later for the reminder. Putting the note away I begin to get ready for my shower. While doing that I can't help but think about the past week. Ever since our little study date I've been hanging out with (Y/N) almost every day. I mean he still declined my offer to work together on a project and he still doesn't eat in the lunchroom with everyone, but he's started talking to me while we wait in the lunch line and he's stopped shying away from people when they try to talk to him. I've still only seen him initiate a conversation with me but I've also seen that if somebody asks for help on something he is more inclined to say yes. I don't quite get why I feel jealous when he spends time with others but it's still good that he's socializing. Shaking my head I realize that I've been lost in thought and just left the water in the shower running for a little bit. Weird how thoughts of (Y/N) does that. Oh well. Once done in the shower I change into my normal clothes and step out to greet the day.

Time skip to the auditorium

My team and I enter the auditorium. The first group I see is JNPR which isn't too hard given Nora constantly jumping around and messing with things and Ren trying to calm her down. Looking around I also see that team CFVY and CRDL are here too. Velvet has her camera out to take pictures with Yatsuhashi sitting next to her to scare off Cardin and his goons. Ugh, I don't get what their problem is with Faunus. Looking over I see Coco straightening up some classmates' clothes, no doubtably scolding them for not making every last thing that they are wearing match. Fox seems to be just relaxing next to Yatsuhashi with his arms crossed and his head down. He might actually be sleeping. Looking past them, I see the rest of JNPR chatting away. Both Jaune and Pyrrha notice me looking and wave at us. I wave back and start leading my team over to them so we can sit together. Once everyone is settled I look around the room again for (Y/N). I know he didn't forget about the training session because of his text earlier. I hope nothing bad has happened. Then Coco's voice grabs my attention.

"What are you wearing?" Turning myself around, I see Coco talking to (Y/N). She seems a little upset at him, but I don't get why. His pants and shirt are (F/C) and (S/F/C) and though I wouldn't imagine those two colors in combination, he seems to be pulling them off pretty well. The colors aren't too bright as to come off as gaudy yet not too dull as to make you wonder why he didn't just pick a totally black colored outfit. From the way, he is wearing everything the colors don't seem to clash against one another. Heck, his shoes even match what he is wearing. The only thing on him that really sticks out is silver and gold belt and that's just because the buckle is to his side instead of in the front but I think that's just to avoid people from staring at his... well you know what region. Did the room temperature just rise? Shaking my head I focus back on Coco and (Y/N). He seems a little scared from her outburst but then again Coco can be a little intimidating at times.
