Moments of life (WhiteRose story)

Ruby's sick day

Along came a WhiteRose (in between ch.7 & ch.8)

(Weiss' pov)
Why do they always run? Me and Ruby were in pursuit of some guy that tried to attack a faunus while we were on patrol, so now we're chasing after the racist so we could bring him in for assault not that most people would care, i hate Atlas. This chase had gone on long enough and it was starting to annoy me so i called out to Ruby who was slightly ahead of me because i was wearing heels "RUBY! Quit being fair and go after him!" Ruby turned her head slightly towards me and nodded. Ruby activated her semblance to catch up to him but she slipped and went straight into an open truck with a crash "RUBY!" I called out once i reached the truck, I quickly turned to the fleeing racist to see him running in the opposite direction.

I unsheathed Myrtenaster and plunged the tip of the blade into the ground causing ice to go straight at him and stop him in his tracks as his legs became encased in ice why didn't I do this to begin with? Before i could question myself more two Atlesian knights broke him out of the ice and began to escort him to police station. I turned back to the truck and checked inside to see if Ruby was okay, as soon as I looked in to the truck I began to laugh uncontrollably at the sight of Ruby covered in fish "ITS NOT FUNNY!" Ruby yelled out through chattering teeth, her yelling at me only made me laugh harder as she stood up and walked out of the truck and back to the academy with me following suit still laughing.

(Timeskip)
After our little incident with the racist and the fish truck me and Ruby were back at the academy listen to General Ironwood briefing us about the current situation of Amity and the marshal law over Mantle and Atlas. So far things have gone smoothly which is quite surprising knowing our luck. Before I could continue thinking how good our luck is, Nora interrupted Ironwood "Okay, who smells like dead fish?" "I thought it was Yang's new perfume" Blake says, we all look at her confused "I don't know if that's a good thing or not" Ren says in his signature calm manor how the hell does he stay so calm, "Its me, sorry" Ruby says clearly embarrassed, I told the rest what happened earlier today.

After I was finished the group bursted out in laughter with Ironwood and my sister silently chuckling "Well it seems like you had quite the event full day, why don't you two go and take the rest of the day off" Ironwood says to me and Ruby. Before we stepped out the door Winter called out to Ruby "Unless you want to keep that fish, I recommend taking it out of your hood" Ruby looks at her confused while I looked into her hood and saw a single fish making me laugh as I pulled it out and showed it to Ruby making her groan in frustration. As we walked out the door I threw the fish to Blake and her eyes went wide with excitement she really does act like a cat when there's fish involved, while we walked back to the dorm I saw Ruby slightly shivering so I wrapped my arm around her waist to try and warm her which she smiled at before wrap and around my shoulders.

Once we made it to the dorm Ruby started to undress don't stare what ever you do, don't stare I failed at trying not to stare at Ruby's perfect figure which went unnoticed "See something you like~" Ruby teased while leaning down to eye level with me making me blush and flustered "No! I mean yes but not like that...I mean-" I was quickly cut off by Ruby laughing "Its okay, it's nothing you haven't seen before" Ruby said as she grabbed her pajamas from the bunk we shared and went to the bathroom to shower. About half an hour later Ruby exited the bathroom while drying her hair with a towel, while she was in the shower I decided to change into my pajamas as well. She then threw the towel into the bathroom and joined me on the bunk, as we cuddled up together we quickly fell asleep.

(The next day, third person pov)
Weiss was sleeping peacefully, resting her head on top of her girlfriend's chest until she's awoken by a loud sneeze "What the hell!" Weiss says, she then looks up to see Ruby looking very pale and sickly "Sorry" Ruby slurred wiping her nose with the back of her arm. A few moments later along with a few sneezes the other half of team RWBY awoke and we're now looking at a very sick Ruby "Geez, how long were you in that truck?" Yang asked with a concerned tone of voice while feeling Ruby's forehead with the back of her hand to see if she had a fever, "I don't know, maybe a few minutes" Ruby replied, Yang removed her hand from her sister's forehead and looked at the other two members "Yeah she's got a cold" Yang says with a sigh.

"I'm fine all I need is a glass of whole milk, my favourite video game and an inspiration cat poster" Ruby says while trying to get up from the bunk only to be pushed back down by her ivory haired girlfriend "Weiss I love you and all but I don't think now is the best time for sex" Ruby says making Weiss blush and flustered while Yang and Blake laugh "No you dolt! I'm going to look after you...not like that!" Weiss says sternly with a dark blush creeping along her face. After a few minutes Ruby reluctantly agreed to take a sick day while Yang and Blake left to continue their duty as huntress' leaving Weiss to care for her sick girlfriend. And so after a day's worth of nursing a sick Ruby to somewhat health the two laid in their bunk cuddled up with each other in relaxful silence until Ruby spoke up.

"Thanks for looking after me Weiss" Weiss looks up to the young girl with a smile "No problem, what type of girlfriend would I be if I didn't look after my adorable petal" Weiss says leaning up to kiss Ruby's cheek resulting in a giggle from the younger girl "Um could you do one more thing for me" Ruby asks looking away slightly embarrassed "Of course what do want, more cookies?" Weiss responds sitting up with a smile "Yes but could you also sing for me?" Ruby says clearly embarrassed about the request, the ivory haired girl simple chuckled then leaned down to kiss Ruby on her forehead "You don't need to be embarrassed, I would love too" Weiss says sitting back up and clearing her throat.

"Hush your cries
Close your eyes
Stay with me
Let's just dream
Quietly
Of what might be

Calm your fear
I'll be near
To you
I'll cling
Rest my friend
Time can mend
Many things

I don't know the answers
Tomorrow's still unknown
But I can make this promise
You won't be alone

I don't know where we should go
Just feeling farther from our goal
I don't know what path we will be shown
But I know that when I'm with you
I'm at home
Yes, I know that when I'm with you
I'm at home

There's a quiet place
In my embrace
A haven of safety where
I'll dry your tears
Shelter here
In my care

But even when we stumble
And someday when we fall
What I will remember
That I had you through it all

I don't know where we should go
Just feeling farther from our goal
I don't know what path we will be shown
But I know that when I'm with you I'm at home
Yes, I know that when I'm with you I'm at home
Yes, I know that when I'm with you I'm at home"

Weiss then leaned down and softly kissed a sleeping Ruby's lips she then looked up and saw Yang and Blake smiling at her "Nice work ice queen" Yang says jokingly while wiping away a tear from her eye with Blake just nodding with a smile. The ivory haired girl then cuddled up to her sleeping girlfriend and shut her eyes letting sleep wash over but before she does she hears Ruby talk in her sleep "I love you snowflake" Weiss just smiles and cuddles up closer finally letting sleep take over.
The end
