Weiss's pov:

I arrive back at beacon and I am once again greeted by Ozpin but this time, he was stood next to a hooded girl who was looking down at the floor. She then looked up. Ruby. I smiled and she just looked away from me. She had really changed since I left her. Me and Ozpin spoke while Ruby stood in silence. Then, me and Ruby were told to go back to the dorm. On the way back, Ruby was silent. Well.. apart from a few mutters here and there. I decided not to say anything to her. She didn't seem very comfortable walking around with just me. When we got back to the dorm, Ruby went to get changed leaving me with Yang and Blake..
"You know you're not in charge while you're here Schnee" Blake said
"Yeah. Ruby has been working so hard to make sure she does her best.. she must have gone over everything at least 3 times now.. all she does is study then practicing fighting skills and use using her semblance. She's leader not you. So don't think you're in charge anymore" Yang added. I nodded and put my things down next to the beds. I then sat on the floor and waited for Ruby to finish changing.
I hadn't said a word since finishing my conversation with Ozpin.

Ruby's pov:

I was just sat in the bathroom for a moment to escape Weiss. Why now? Why did she have to come back so soon.. what happened in the town really threw me off guard.. I got changed into my gym clothes and walked out the bathroom.
"Where are you going at this time?" Yang asked
"Training. You should know that by now Yang. Study for a few hours after going for a walk then go training with Pyrrah" I said as I looked over at Weiss who was in her own little world. Yang nodded and I left. Pyrrah was waiting outside my dorm for me. She gave me a confused look
"You seem off today Ruby. What's up?" She asked as we started walking to the training room.
"Weiss.. she's back.. and in my team as my partner.. she also tried to guilt trip me into dating her again.. she ended up noticing me when I went out earlier." I said. Pyrrah stopped dead in her tracks and her eyes widened.
"I'm sorry about that Ruby.." she said
"Don't worry about it. I'll show her who's in charge around here." I said as I rolled my eyes.

We arrived at the training room and I calmed down a little bit by then. I wasn't mad because she came back, I was mad because she left. Me and Pyrrah trained a little bit and I got hurt a few times but it was fine. I could take a few bruises and cuts. It was nothing big

(Basically what Ruby looks like but with a couple bruises on her legs)

Pyrrah was getting a little tired so we decided to go back to our dorms. When I walked in, Blake and Yang were asleep together but Weiss was still awake. When she saw me, she stood up and walked over to me. She then grabbed my arm and gave me a sad look.
"W-what happened...?" She asked
"I was training and I couldn't focus. Don't worry about it. I'm capable of taking care of myself thank you" I said as she let go of my arm. I was about to get changed but she hugged me. I don't know why, but I hugged her back.
"Who were you training with?" She asked
"That doesn't matter. Now go to bed. I'm sick of seeing people today" I said as I went into the bathroom to get changed. I got changed and walked out. Weiss was asleep. Thank god for that. I really didn't want her talking to me. I climbed into bed and went to sleep.

(Sorry for the short chapter. I didn't know what to write. Also, I just want to say thank you so much for 1k reads. I'm so grateful)
