(3rd POV)
Ruby Rose, the hyperactive, cookie loving huntress walked around the halls of Beacon. It was surprising to see the girl this calm, it was almost frightening. The cause of her calmness; it was Weiss's birthday, and Ruby had promised to keep calm and tone down her antics for the month of her teammate's birthday. 'What should I get her? She's my friend, so she deserves something special. . . A new weapon? No, she's pretty happy with Mrytenaster. . . Flowers? No, she can literally buy fields of flowers. . . *Internal Gasp* I know, I'll ask her sister!' Ruby runs off to the Bullhead landing area, leaving a trail of rose petals. Ruby boards a bullhead to Atlas, getting there in a surprisingly short time. She steps off of the Bullhead, running off to where Weiss's sister, Winter, would be.
(Meanwhile)
Winter looks through her paper work and sees a letter addressed to her. She draws her saber and quickly slices open the top of the letter, jumping back a second later. "Well, at least it isn't a letter bomb." She takes out the paper, ready to read it, until the door to her quarters open, showing a smiling Ruby. "Oh, you're one of Weiss's friends, correct?" Winter says, looking the young huntress over. "Yes I am, Ruby Rose." Ruby holds out her hand for winter to shake it. Winter does so, taking the girl's hand into her gloved one "Winter Shcnee.". Both young women look at each other, Winter's face softening at the cheerful aura the girl in front of her radiated. "I know this is sudden, but, I came here to find out what Weiss would want for her birthday." Winter looks surprised at first, but regains her composure. "Well. . . She has said she wanted this beautiful crystal jewelry set." Winter reaches into a pocket and hands Ruby a picture.
"Wow. . . They are PERFECT for her!" Ruby shouts excitedly. Winter smiles, "Yes, but she felt she would only get to wear them to dances. And as such never bought them." Winter looks at Ruby, "Here, take this." She hands the young girl a credit card with the Schnee family emblem on it. "The store you can find the set at is in Mistral, on the top layer of the city." Ruby nods her head, taking the card. "I won't let you or Weiss down!" A trail of rose petals follows Ruby as she runs out. Winter turns back to the letter. 'Dear Winter, if Ruby comes by, please tell her I only want to spend time with her for my birthday. Love, Weiss!' Winter sweat-drops, "I knew I should have read this earlier. . . But, I can tell; nothing is going to stop that girl now."
Ruby runs back to the Bullhead landing area, boarding one that goes to Mistral.
/Time skip\
The Bullhead lands, Ruby running out of it to the topmost part of Mistral, Winter's credit card in her pocket. Not being able to use her semblance in the streets Ruby draws Cresent Rose, using the recoil of the scythe's gun form, she jumps onto the roof of a building. With her new vantage point, she can see the sign of a store that read; 'Jewels, Gems, And Crystals, Oh My!' The young girl jumps from roof to roof, determined to get Weiss's present. 'I have to get there, I have to!' Ruby thinks to herself, picking up the pace.
The young huntress slows down a bit, her destination close. "Oh no!" Ruby sees an elderly bat Faunus woman in her path. She thinks quickly, turning backwards and stabs the ground with Cresent Rose, slowing down at a fast pace. Ruby soon stops and looks behind her. "*Whew* Thank goodness, are you okay ma'am?" The woman looks at Ruby, a sweet smile on her face. "Oh, hello there dear. How are you today? Staying safe, I hope." The Faunus slowly walks off, leaving Ruby in shock. Ruby continues on her way to the jewelry store, 'That was weird, how did she not hear me?' Ruby walks into the store, looking around quickly. Her eyes lock onto the center-most display. "Excuse me?" The old shopkeeper walks over, a small smile on his face. "I'd like this set please." Ruby hands the man Winter's credit card. The shopkeeper walks over to the cashregister swiping the card once. *Beep* The man nods at Ruby, unlocking the case and handing her the different cases for the jewels. Ruby thanks the man before rushing out of the store, taking Winter's credit card with her as she ran back to the Bullhead landing area.
Boarding the Bullhead she thinks, 'Man, Weiss is going to love this!'
/Meanwhile/
At Beacon, Weiss paces around her team's dorm, mumbling to herself. "Weiss, calm down. I'm sure Ruby's fine." Blake says, nose buried in the newest edition of 'Ninjas Of Love'. "Calm down?! Ruby could be in danger, and all you can say is calm down?!" Yang peaks her head into the room from the kitchen, "Come on Ice Queen, Ruby can handle herself if she gets into a fight." Weiss sits on her bed with a huff, picking up the weapon cleaner Ruby had gotten her as an earlier birthday present. "Why are you so worried Weiss, do you have a crush on Ruby?~" Weiss stays quiet, peaking the interest of both of her teammates. "No way. . . Oh my gosh, you do!" Blake and Yang say, stopping what they were doing. ". . . Of course I do. . . She's. . . Not what I first thought she was. She's been more calm, she takes her work seriously, but she's still my- our Ruby. She's perfect." "Aw, that's so nice of you to say Weiss!" The familiar voice of the little Rose startled Weiss, causing her to toss the weapon cleaner in the air, making it land with a dull think onto the floor. "Ruby!" The normally cold natured girl throws her arms around the girl in red. "I didn't think you'd miss me this much Weiss." "Shut up you dolt."
Yang and Blake leave the dorm, closing the door behind them. Weiss releases Ruby from her hug, "I thought you were in trouble. . . I didn't know what to think." Ruby looks at her friend, tears forming in the heiress's eyes. "Aw. . . Weiss, you don't need to worry about me!" Ruby says hugging the now crying girl. Ruby smiles, softly pushing the girl away, "I got you that set of jewelry you always wanted!" Weiss's eyes go wide, "Ruby I. . . I wanted to tell you that. . . I just wanted to spend the day with you." Ruby frowns, unhappy that she didn't really know what Weiss wanted.
Weiss looks at Ruby, a smile forming on her tearstained face. "Hey Ruby, do you know that. . . Someone in this room has a crush on you?" Weiss's face turns light pink as she spoke those words. "What?" Ruby looks about the room, only seeing the young heiress in front of her. "Weiss, you have a-" "Of course I do, you dolt!" Weiss's face turns a dark shade of red as she shouts. Ruby's face turns as red as her cape, "Um. . . Well. . . I think someone in this room has a crush on you." Weiss smiles, wrapping her arms around the young girl's frame. "I love you Ruby." "I love you too Weiss." The two huntresses in training embrace, unaware of the scroll poking in through the door. *Click*
/Outside the room/ "Did you get it?" Blake asks her blonde haired friend. "Oh yeah. I got it." Yang quietly closes the door, making sure her arm and scroll were out first. Both girls look at the picture, Yang aws that her sister has a girlfriend, Blake smiles slightly, happy that the sour heiress has found someone to love her. Yang and Blake walk down the halls, chesire cat grins on their faces.
