Taking chances

Chapter 17

Blake's pov

"I-i came to talk to you" I said looking into her eyes. Confusion was written all over her face and it made me give a small smile.

"What about?" she asked. None of us spoke for a second before I decided to tell her. "About the deal you made. With Sun" I said. Her jaw clenched and her eyes went dark. I gulped before talking again.

"Yang, I don't want you guys fighting over me. I-"

"Actually, I'm not even gonna try to fight over you because it's gonna have the same outcome as the ones before: Sun wins and gets the love of my life" she said as she layed back down on her bed.

"I'm- you like me?" I asked confused. I felt my heart speed up as I waited for her to say the next words.

"Yeah. For a while now. Ever since we met I just-there's like this magnet or whatever, pulling me towards you and I don't know what to do with it. So I runaway, hoping that it'll just stop, but it doesn't" she said sitting up and looking at the ground.

"It just keeps growing and growing the more I'm near you!" She stood up and paced the room. "It's suffocating me and it feels hard to breath. I can't ever think straight! And-and- what happened downstairs, wasn't supposed to happen! I was just- I thought it was the right thing because you two look so happy together!" She said punching the wall. Which happened to be by my head.

"I can't help what I feel for you. I just- I want- I need you Blake. I want to change. For you. For Ruby. For everyone." she said as she rested her head on the other side of the wall. She removed her hand from the wall and I saw that it was bleeding.

"I'm done fighting over people I care about, but you're worth my fight" she turned to walk away but I grabbed her hand.

Yang's pov

"You're hurt. Let me help you" she didn't give me time to answer and dragged me to my restroom. "Sit" she said pointing to the counter. I sighed and sat down.

She took my hand and inspected it. "I could've done it myself you know" I said as she grabbed a towl and wet it. "I know. It's the least I could do" I quirked an eye brow and stared at her.

"What do you mean?" she shook her head and chuckled. "I never knew you liked Justin Bieber" she said as she began to dab my hand with the wet towl. "You're so reckless" she chuckled.

I smiled, "it's worth it" I said leaning a little closer to her. She lifted her head and I heard her breathe hitch. "What is?" she said just below a whisper. I leaned in a little closer to the point where our noses are touching.

"You"

I kissed her with everything I had. I was trying to prove that she was worth fighting for. That she was worth everything.

I slowly pulled away from her while giving her little pecks as I pulled away. I opened my eyes and looked at her closed ones. I jumped off the counter and brought my hand up to her face.

"You're worth my everything" I said kissing her head. She slowly opened her eyes and looked into mine with a smile. I smiled at her and grabbed her hand, taking her towards my room.

I grabbed a roll of bandages and wrapped my hand in them. Half way through wrapping it, Blake walked over to me and finished the wrapping. I stared at her The whole time.

She was so beautiful with those amber eyes, little cat like nose, black hair, and pink full lips. Her eyes connected with mine when she finished and she turned away with a blush.

With one finger, I brought her chin up and kissed her full pink lips. She wrapped her arms around my neck as I wrapped mine around her waist. I slowly pulled away from her lips and kissed down to her neck. A small moan escaped her lips as I began to nibble at her skin.

Before we could go any further, there was a knock on the door that caused us both to jump apart. She quickly sat on my bed as I walked over and opened the door.

"Hey Yang, it's dinner time" Ruby said. I nodded and looked at Blake. She stood and walked passed me, following Ruby down the stairs. I followed and sat down next to Blake at the table.

Dad smiled as he brought out the food. Sun came from down the hall and sat next to Ruby. He smiled at Blake then glared at me. I smirked.

"So why are we having a 'get together'?" Ruby asked as she helped hand out the food. "Well, my little rose, it's been a while since we've all got together and talked" Dad said, handing me a plate.

I took it and thanked him. He wants to talk about something but is hiding it with a smile and dinner. But-what does he so desperately want to talk about? And, more specifically, why?

I felt something hit my leg under the table and doubled over. "Oww!" I said then glared at Sun. He shook his head as my dad repeated himself. "Yang? You okay? You spaced out for a second"

I looked down at my hands as I answered. "Yeah just thinking a lot" I mumbled. I earned another kick and groaned in pain. I quickly grabbed a steak knife, stood, then pointed it at Sun.

"I swear if you touch me one more time I'll have you wishing you were on your death bed sooner than later" I said through gritted teeth. Ruby's eyes widened along with Blake's, Sun put his hands up defensively, dad seemed confused, and Qrow seemed unfazed as he walked in.

"Alright Yang, I think you've scared the boy enough today" Qrow said lowering the knife in my hand. I huffed and pushed my chair back so I could leave.

"I'll be upstairs if you need me. It seems dinner together isn't the best thing to have at the moment" I said pushing my chair in and walking towards the stairs.

"The door's open Yin!" I yelled. I heard the door opened and closed as I walked up the stairs along with Yin following. I opened my window and sat on it, looking up at the stars.

I saw Yin sit on my bed. I felt his stare on me and sighed. "Sun and I can't be in the same room together anymore. He makes it a living hell for me and I just want out" I said still looking at the stars.

After about an hour or so, a knock came from the door and Yin answered it. I heard soft voices before the door closed and it was quiet.

"Why didn't you tell me that you and Sun has a bad history?" I sighed and stood up from the windowsill. "Because I didn't want to get you between it" I said closing the window.

I placed my hands on the sides of the window and looked through the blinds. I felt arms wrap around me and something rest on my back.

I instantly knew it was Blake and smiled. "I don't mind Yang. As long as you're okay" she said with a sigh. I chuckle before turning around and grabbing her hand, walking over to my bed.

I layed down and pulled her down with me. She rested her head on my arm as I put it around her. She wrapped her arm around me as I snaked my other arm around her waist. I sighed and smiled.

"I'm okay for now. Just go to sleep Blakey" I said as I closed my eyes. A couple of minutes later, her breathe became steady and she wasn't tense anymore. She was relaxed and it made me smiled.

"Good night my love" I said, giving her head a kiss before falling asleep.

I love her way too much
