~SET IN THE MODERN WORLD~
"I see someone has a specific taste in significant others," Yang said.
"And what do you mean by that?" Blake asked.
"What I mean by that is," Yang got close to Blake that their noses and foreheads were touching, "you like people with a fiery soul. And you're in luck, Blakey."
Meeting on the first day of Beacon, Blake and Yang met on the bus heading to school, which was awkward itself. After trying to start up a conversation with Blake, Yang finds out there was no way she could reach out to her without mentioning a book of some sort. Finally getting her to break out of her shell, Yang develops feelings for Blake. When Yang thought everything was going well for her, she finds out Blake was already in a relationship. Torn by grief, Yang does the only thing she knows how to do: be a guardian for Blake, until feelings come to Yang.
One winter's night, a raven flew through the open window to her bedroom holding a single rose in its mouth. It offered it to the girl.
And she accepted it gladly.
In the midst her newly terrifying fate, Yang would need to learn to love and be loved again before midnight struck on her 21st birthday. But she began to grow weary. Hopelessness consumed her thoughts.
For who could ever learn to love a beast?

I've seen maybe a couple AUs of the "Beauty and the Beast" theory between this pairing. I thought it'd be fun to write up another one! Just a heads up as well, Blake is "Beauty" and Yang is the "Beast".
This will more closely follow the path of the Disney version, with a few slight changes to the main story. There's not much else to be said here, so I hope you enjoy!
