'Twenty four hours remain…'
This was Jaune's first thought as he rose from bed that morning.
'I've got one day to decide whether I like Pyrrha more than Velvet, or if it's the other way around.'
Standing up, Jaune began to get dressed and continued to think. 'Sadly, I'm still as clueless as I was when all this began! I love them both, how can I just choose who I want and leave the other to suffer?!'
As he thought over his dilemma, Jaune soon noticed the sheets on Nora's bed rise.
'I need to clear my head a bit. Guess I'll just take a walk before breakfast.'
As the door closed behind Jaune, Nora's sheets fell off her head and she bounded over to Ren's bed to wake him up and begin the day.
Jaune found himself outside of the dorms in no time, enjoying the biting cold of the morning air.
'I've been worrying over this for longer than I can honestly remember. Let's just relax for once and let the answers come to us. There's no point in worrying over it at this point.'
No sooner had Jaune finished that thought, a menacing shadow loomed over his head and everything turned to darkness.
Pyrrha entered the cafeteria with Ren and Nora expecting to find Jaune seated at the usual table.
When she saw that the only person there besides team RWBY was Velvet, she got a sinking feeling in her stomach.
Velvet felt the same way when she noticed Jaune's absence as well. "Where's Jaune?" She asked.
"I was about to ask you the same thing, we haven't seen him all morning."
This confused everyone slightly.
"Meh, I'm sure he's just off thinking somewhere. He'll show up eventually."
Everyone sans Yang of course and as much as the two lovebirds hated to be without their blonde goofball, they realized that Jaune would still need some time alone to think about his choice.
Pyrrha decided to let him come to them. "Alright, he's never skipped class before so I'm sure we'll see him during first period."
The bell rang then and there to emphasise her point.
"Let's be off then."
As Pyrrha and Velvet sat in History class and students began to filter into the room they noticed a severe lack of Jaune.
When the Professor himself entered and began the lecture both girls felt dread.
Neither of them could listen to a single word that left Oobleck's mouth, they could only silently imagine what horrors could have befallen their mutual love interest.
The lecture felt twice as long as it should have and the moment it was over Pyrrha met up with Velvet and Blake outside of class and messaged their teams.
They were there in seconds.
"JAUNE WASN'T IN CLASS?!" Ruby screamed as she came upon the trio standing in the hall.
Pyrrha shook her head in reply. "No, he's never done this before, something must've happened."
"But what?" Velvet intervened. "Jaune's the nicest guy in Beacon, it's not like anyone would want to hurt him."
Despite the fact that everyone agreed with the statement, it brought up past experiences.
"Now that you mention it…" Yang started. "I didn't see Russel or Dove in Combat Training earlier."
