Totally A Date

Disclaimer: I do not own RWBY. If I did I would have probably made Qrow Ruby's father and said that Qrow leaves her with Taiyang and Yang to watch over her while Qrow goes off on missions.

The next morning

Ruby's POV

Waking up from the sound of an alarm going off I stretch like usual. Looking down at my cast I can already tell that my aura is fixing the broken arm meaning I should be back to normal in the next few days. Looking around my room I notice that none of my teammates are here. I reach over to silence our teams newest alarm clock but find that it is not going off. Looking down at the clock it reads 10:50 am. Wow, I didn't realize I was that tired from yesterday. Wait why am I not in class? And if the alarm clock is off what is that noise? Looking around my nightstand I find the source of the noise. My scroll is sounding off telling me I have a message. Grabbing it I notice I have messages from two people. One is from Yang and the other is from an unknown number. I read Yang's message first.

Yang: hey sis! hope u slept well. srry we arent ther 2 take care of u but got called 2 a school thing. We will bbs. <3 u!

Me: Mornin sis and Im fine. Thanks for asking. Luv you 2

After that I look over at the mystery number.

Unknown: Hello Ruby it is (Y/N). I am sorry for bothering and possibly startling you with this message. Professor Ozpin gave me your info so I could text you. Sorry I did not mention this to you last night things got... Yeah anyways I know I said that we could still hang out if you want and study like we have been but there is something I forgot to mention with my semblance. See if I want to sever the link naturally I have to put some distance between myself and the linked person. Basically what I am saying is that we can hang out just not for a week or so. Once that time is up we can hang out again. Again sorry about forgetting to say this last night. Hope you are feeling better.

Oh yeah in all that time we spent together we never exchanged numbers. Hehe... Wait he doesn't want to hang out!? But what about last night. Wait, he said this is about his semblance. So it's not me it's his semblance. Quickly I fire back to (Y/N).

Me: Hey (Y/N) srry abut making you need to get my contact info from someone else.

Also I still want to hng out today.

(Y/N): Hi Ruby. Sorry if the text from earlier was too long. Also I know but the link does not sever unless we stay apart but we can still meet up after the week is up. Side question "hng out" is short for hang out right?

Me: Yes it is.

And I still want to meet up so were do u want to meet at?

(Y/N): But if the link is not severed we will start to share memories and emotions. You will get the pain too.

Me: I dont care.

Where?

After I sent my text I waited for his response. And waited. And waited. Arg! What is taking him so long? Why does he have to be so difficult with this? I know he has been through a lot but I want to help him. I thought after last night he would understand. Maybe not start to like me the way I like him but at least know that he isn't alone. I let out a sigh and place the scroll down on the bed as I lay back down. He's scared. I know that, but he doesn't need to be. Not anymore at least. I have to show him I am serious and that no matter what I am his friend. That he doesn't need to carry this pain alone. I jump out of bed and grab my clothes. Putting them on is a bit more of a hassle than usual given the arm but I manage. Just as I make it to the door my scroll goes off. Rushing over there I excitedly see if it is from (Y/N). My excitement falls when I see it's from Yang. She sent a picture of recently awoken Jaune getting scolded by Professor Goodwitch. The message below reads:
