You know the story. Max travels back to the bathroom. Chloe dies. And Arcadia Bay is saved. But the story doesn't end there. We'll never know what happened to Max during the five days leading up to the funeral. Until now.

Weeks turned to days, days turned to hours, and hours to minutes. Time before Chloe would have to give her goodbye to Max. [AU-ish]

AU I thought of in December I remembered and now I'm writing for it. Of course white rose because I'm oblivious af. Fluffy fluffeh fluff~

Taking place around the time of Volume 4, this story is primarily a series of letters exchanged between Ruby and Weiss. Ruby feels she needs to speak to someone. Weiss may have some things to talk about as well. Over the weeks communicated, the two find solace and comfort in one another's letters, and what's more, it seems that feelings had attached themselves to those letters as well. Ruby becomes Weiss' confidant, Weiss becomes Ruby's counsel and it has become ever apparent that the two must find each other again. Author's Note: I disclaim any rights to this story. RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum (may he rest in peace), and I only own the idea I had for this story. The description is long, and I may edit it later, but I hope everyone enjoys this idea I had and the characters it is between. WARNING: This story is WhiteRose based, which means it contains the ship Weiss x Ruby. If you are not a fan of this sort of thing, then I ask politely that you please not read. NOTE: I have watched all of Volume 4 now, and can update my other story, as well as properly write this one. If you see any grammatical errors amidst reading this selection, I do apologize and ask that you skip over it. I will work to fix them, if there turn out to be any. Please enjoy. NOTE: Credits to the artist for the cover, whoever made it. And for all art enclosed.

In this Life is Strange fanfic, we get to experience a world where Max didn't leave Arcadia Bay. She and Chloe are closer than ever. Both the girls think it is more than friendship, but they're afraid of their feelings. Rachel Amber makes it even harder. Her sudden interest in Chloe makes Max uncomfortable. Find out what happens as the three of them try to figure out their feelings. The cover isn't mine if anyone knows the original artist then please give me their name so I can credit them. Thank you, and enjoy the fanfic.

Dual POV This story starts off right after Max made the choice to sacrifice Arcadia Bay, leaving only her and Chloe as survivors. Without anywhere else to go, the duo hit the open road, desperate to run away from their past. Life is hard, and over the next few years, the weight of their consequences slowly start to affect her and Chloe's lives mentally and emotionally. Although she still has her powers, Max promised Chloe never to use them, but that doesn't stop the brunette from slipping up, especially when true danger presents itself which is more often than not. Karma sure seems to have it out for them. Have Max and Chloe finally escaped the grips of their past, or is there a bigger storm yet to come?
