I'm All Yours, All You Have to do is Ask.

chapter 2

Yep... I have all this written out.

After Sun helped her get her things in the guest room, she did what Kali suggested and took a nap. The journey had been long, even though she traveled with Bumblebee, and some well-deserved rest, in a real bed, was for the best. She felt like she'd just laid her head on the pillow, and she woke up, startled, from a few knocks on the door, the darkened room telling her it was the evening, now. Kali herself went to wake her up for dinner, and Yang apologised, saying that she could have helped in the kitchen.

Dinner was taken with Sun, Kali and herself, for Ghira being out in town, meeting with merchants, and Blake being... elsewhere. Yang felt abandoned again. In Blake's own house. She started to doubt about her journey, doubt about Blake. Maybe she didn't want to see her again, after all.

Sun must have felt her brooding, because he started to tell stories, from Beacon. He talked animatedly, waving his hands around, glancing back and forth between the two other women to make sure they were listening, and every time he noticed Yang looking away, absent, he would call out to her.

"What did Weiss used in the food fight, again? Some kind of fish?" he asked, poking her shoulder with his tail.

And every time he called out, asking about something he already knew, she only snorted, smiling a little.

"A swordfish, Sun. What else could she use?"

And the evening went like that, Kali listening with attention at Sun's stories, and even more attentive when Yang told how she and Blake had become partners, then a few anecdotes about the team. Before long, Kali excused herself, retiring for the night, as it was already late in the evening, and soon after, Yang did the same.

She closed the door behind her, sighing as she let her head fall back against it. She was hesitating between going to bed even though she wasn't tired, her nap far too effective, or taking a walk, even though she didn't know the place, when she heard a knock.

Frowning as she straightened her head, she glanced over her shoulder to the door, surprised. The noise wasn't coming from there. The knock came again, insistent, and she glanced the other way, towards the window, and she blinked.

Blake was crouched there, her hand pressed against the window to keep her balance, and when their eyes locked, she smiled a small smile, her ears jerking back, but not flat on her head. Blake was nervous.

Crossing the distance in four wide steps, Yang unlocked and opened the window, Blake sitting back on her hunches. For a moment, they stayed silent.

"I'm sorry I barged in here" Yang finally said. "Couldn't call you beforehand telling you I was coming" she tried to joke.

Blake kept her eyes cast down, her ears flicking once, still jerked back.

"I'm sorry I ran. I... had to think."

The blonde hummed, staring at her for a moment, and she walked back to the bed, sitting on the edge of it, and she saw Blake sit on the windowsill. She was just glad the faunus was willing to stay, at least for a moment.

"I like your outfit" Yang said quietly after a moment. "You look like a pirate Queen."

Golden eyes, glowing in the darkness, glanced up at her with a huff.

"A pirate Queen? Really, Yang?"

"Yeah! I mean, it looks badass, and well... you look..."

She stopped for a moment, staring from head to toe, before pulling her hands up, both her thumbs up.
