A/N: Thought about it for a moment, I decided that I'm taking the relationship a bit too fast on Y/N's part. So I decided to make this less of 'naughty fun time' and more of a toned-down Funtime for friends.(Which equals a cringeworthy chapter XD)

The Very Next Day...

Me: Damn, Lilith! Diana! Are you seeing this?

I ask, the two girls looked at me, sit up and turn to look at the TV. There's been news of the arson at Beacon, and holy shit. It's been going better than I expected, I've played my Aces well last night.

Lisa: In other words, Professor Ozpin at Beacon Academy has noted the disaster that wreaked havoc at the ceremonial dance that occurred just last night, within the heart of Beacon Academy. Claiming the lives of 7 huntsmen, and a further 2 when later Faunus allegedly dressed in White Fang uniforms had broken into the dance floor, firing shots into the defenceless crowd. The White Fang has claimed responsibility for the act, and has continued to evade authorities. Another, Identified as Caleb Facili was dead after presumably being thrown off the roof of the Haven Academy dorms by the perpetrators.

That's exactly what I thought, it's a common act for terrorists to name almost every single attack in public in their name, even though it may not even be their own. Brewing up the paranoia that'll soon engulf this academy. Not to mention that 'setback' finally taken care of.

Me: Make you think how ineffective society is these days.

I mumbled to myself, Diana folded her arms and leaned against the wall. Clearly tuckered out during the events last night.

Diana: You guys visiting the burial today?

Me: Waste of time, traditions are weak, indicators of our inability to forget the worse and hope for the best.

I said in a dead-eye stare, whilst still glaring at the television. Diana thought for a moment.

Diana: Hmmm, mad logic... But valid point. Heck what am I even doing, no one I knew died that night.

Me: Exactly the point, you know that it was a terrible thing. But the past's the past, it already happened, there's nothing to do about it.

Diana: You know Ace, it seems the more I'm around you the more you seem to make sense. Y'know that?

She asks, tying up her scarlet hair into a ponytail. She grabs her scroll and shoes, opening the door to exit.

Diana: See you two around! Imma hang out with Team RWBY for the rest of the day.

Me: Alright, see yah.

I smiled, waving. Yesterday was a fantastic victory... with the blame being put on the Faunus. And myself seen as the hero of the whole damn school. Things couldn't get better, today was a day for resting. I closed se my eyes...

Lilith: Oh Y/N!

I guess not...

Me: Yeah, what is it?

She turned off the television, and sat on a chair next to the bed.

Lilith: So, are there any plans for us today?

She curiously asks, as I stretch a bit while lying on the bed.

Me: No.

I responded. Lilith playfully asked.

Lilith: No? Why not.
