A/N: Okay, another oneshot. This is Remnant without superpowers and Blake and Yang don't exist, by the way. It will make sense as you read, I promise. A couple warnings: heavy smut (I mean it, like seriously, some of you may find the smut disturbing), mentions of drug abuse and self harm and some angst for good measure. Also, it's long and the smut scenes are straight, not yuri.

Ruby groaned when she heard a knock on the door. Great. What is it now, number 17 today? She quickly glanced at her reflection in the mirror; she had to look presentable. It seemed to her there are no spots that needed attending. She stood up with a sigh and walked over to the door in just her red bra and panties.

As she opened the door, she saw a man, just a bit less than 7 feet tall, as wide as the door. Jesus. He'll flatten me. She stood to the side so that the man could enter her room, which he did, albeit slowly. To be honest, Ruby wasn't too sure how he managed to move his weight around in the first place. Suddenly she got scared for her modest bed.

As soon as the man came to the centre of the room and Ruby shut the door behind him, his hands started clumsily groping the small woman. Ruby shuddered at the touch, but didn't pull away. She couldn't. She remembered what one of the other women told her when she got here first. If you really can't stand the person in your room, just close your eyes and hope it passes soon. She did just that. And as she shut her eyes, she could see her clearly right in front of her. The girl she had to leave, the girl that was her world, the girl that made her feel alive. The girl I loved so much it completely shattered my life when she had to go. She could still remember the feel of her silky white hair that fell down in an off-to-the-side ponytail down to her waist, her satin skin, just a shade darker than ivory, the amazing feeling she got when she kissed her. She even remembered the girl's scar over her left eye that she got before Ruby got to know her and how even the scar was beautiful on that otherwise perfect face.

She tried to move on, she tried to forget, but in the end, she couldn't. She started selling her body about two years ago, tried almost any deprived fantasy her customers might have, all in hopes of forgetting what happened and why. It was no use. A few months ago she started snorting, hoping that would make a difference, but all it did was make her even more miserable, so she dropped the habit after about a week. Luckily, she wasn't drawn back towards it, but it was of little comfort to her.

She felt like crying. No. Not yet. After this guy leaves and you try to clean the mountain of invisible mud off of you. You can cry later.

She was forced out of her thoughts when the huge man groping her let out a loud cough that demanded attention. She looked the man in the eye, waiting for him to say what he wanted to do with her. She forced herself to start caressing his oversized chest and managed to ask gently.

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to fuck your mouth while you're wearing a clown's wig and nose," came the man's answer, his voice sounding almost like a growl.

Holy fuck, was Ruby's first thought. She did many nasty and weird things in her time here, but this guy creeped her out. Thank god he doesn't want my pussy. I don't think I can get wet for this guy.

"And after, I want to fuck your pussy hard." Fuck.

All she could do was nod. If she did anything else, it probably wouldn't end well for her. Hell, I bet this guy could strangle me without even really trying. As long as he was dressed, Ruby couldn't be sure if he was weaponless.

"I'll be right back, just let me find the props," she said in a soft voice, hoping she'd be able to mask her disgust. Either she managed to hide it or the guy simply didn't care, his expression remained unchanged as he nodded. Ruby went down the hall to what the other women there called "costume room". It had all sorts of props and costumes, all with the idea of satisfying every single fetish someone might have. She quickly found what she came for and put the stuff on. She hurried back to her room, not wanting to keep her customer waiting for too long.

When she entered the room, she noticed the man was already naked and hard. Well, at least he isn't too big down there. Small relief, though.

The man stood up and his belly almost covered his private parts. Ruby was disgusted, but what could she do? She went towards him and the man grabbed her again, this time rubbing her pussy hard through her panties. His touches sent pain up Ruby's small body, but in the two years she'd learned to ignore pain. It was nothing a few painkillers wouldn't suppress. Instead, she let out a few fake moans, another thing she'd learned.

Luckily for her, her moans seemed to make the guy think she came and he stopped soon after. He practically threw her small body on her bed and she quickly positioned herself so she would be able to get facefucked without causing herself too much pain. The man climbed onto the bed and it squeaked loudly under his weight, Ruby fearing it would give way. She didn't have much time to think about it, though, as the man moved quicker than a man of his stature was expected to and before she knew, Ruby felt a fleshy rod poke her mouth, demanding entrance. She closed her eyes and opened her mouth, mentally preparing herself for the inevitable pain in the back of her throat.

When the pain struck her, it struck hard. So hard she actually let out a small wince, not like the man heard or cared about it. After a few thrusts, he said: "I forgot to tell you, you're swallowing twice." At this point, Ruby felt nothing and couldn't say anything, so she just took a deep breath as the man continued pumping in and out of her mouth while caressing the clown wig. She forced herself to caress the pumping organ with her tongue, something she hoped would make him ejaculate faster, thus ending her agony just a bit sooner.

After what seemed like forever, Ruby felt something dripping from the man's penis. Experience told her he was about to burst, so she prepared herself for the inevitable, fully expecting the man not to tell her.

His release came not long after that, naturally without him telling Ruby so. With every spurt that came from his organ, another sentence came from his mouth. "Fuck! So good! Oh yeah! Such a… Silky tongue! So soft!" He held his member as deep inside Ruby's mouth as he could. It was quite a massive release, Ruby noted. It tasted horribly, though, so she was very glad most of it went directly down her throat, making as little contact with her tongue as possible.

When he was finally done, the man pulled his now semi limp member out and lay down next to her with a low-pitched growl, breathing heavily.

About a minute later, the man said: "Can you get me up for part two?" It was an order and not a request, his voice conveyed that much, so Ruby didn't really have a choice but to start warming the guy up again. She reached for his member with her hands, gently squeezing it and stroking along the shaft. "Look at me," the man demanded and Ruby complied. The man creeped her out so much she didn't want to even look at his face, but she had to. When she tried to close her eyes, his only response was a resounding "No."

Soon enough, he was hard again. He struggled to rise and mount himself over Ruby, practically ripping her panties off her body.

"Hold up."

This time it was Ruby that spoke an order.

"What?"

"Put on a condom."

"I'm not doing that."

"Yes, you are," Ruby demanded stubbornly. "I may be a prostitute, but the only way anyone fucks my pussy is with a raincoat over his little guy."

"And just how are you going to make me put on a condom, little one?"

"I have ways," Ruby said to him, shooting daggers at him with her eyes. Either the man didn't see that or refused to see it, he just chuckled and started prodding at Ruby's entrance. Ruby simply extended her arm towards the drawer by her bedside, pulled it open and took out a spring knife. She popped out the seven inch blade and aimed it straight at the man's eye.

"Either you put on a condom this instant or you're leaving this room with one eye."

The blade was so close to his eye that the man knew that if he tried to do anything but move backwards, his eye would get pierced, so he did the sensible thing, eyes widened in newfound fear.

"D-Do you have any here?"

Ruby opened another drawer and pulled a condom out, which the man hastily put on. He noticed Ruby didn't let go of the knife yet.

"Can you store the knife, please?" The man was almost shaking in fear. It almost made Ruby chuckle. She put the blade back inside the casing, but didn't let go of the knife.

"If you don't try anything stupid, it won't trigger again. But remember, if it does trigger, you won't be a whole man when you leave this room." There was bile in her voice, but Ruby didn't care. Her being a prostitute didn't mean she was going to be pushed around. Despite her small posture, she was pretty strong, especially with her hands.

The man sighed and got closer to her again. "You're still swallowing, though."

"Sure thing. Which means you're still paying double."

"What?"

"Oh, sweetie, didn't you read my prices? Swallowing is a double fee."

The man had enough. "Fuck this shit." Saying that, he clumsily got out of the bed, took the condom off and started getting dressed. Well, that was a waste of a perfectly good condom, Ruby thought to herself. When he got fully dressed, he took out his wallet. "So, how much do I owe you?"

Ruby was actually surprised at how well the man took everything. Well, her holding a spring knife might have helped, but still. "Well, I do blowjobs and facefucks for 50, so with swallowing, 100."

The man took out the money and handed it to Ruby. Then he left without saying a word. Ruby was alone in her room now. Thank god, she sighed and went to take another shower. He got away early, so I probably have another one coming. Before she could open the door, though, the phone on her nightstand rang. She went back to pick it up.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Rubes. I see you got rid of this guy quickly."

"Well, he…"

"I don't want to hear it. I may be a pimp, but I'm concerned for my women's wellbeing more than the customers. I bet you had a good reason to get rid of the guy."

"Thanks."

"Well, anyway, this means you are free to take another one, right?"

"Yes," she sighed.

"Good. In how long should I send him up?"

Ruby thought for a moment. "Make it 15 minutes."

"Done."

The guy on the other end ended the call and Ruby went to shower. As she stood in the shower, she started thinking. All in all, this life isn't that bad. At least the owner of this place is humane. Sure, we have to work hard and long hours, but at least we aren't getting beaten or something. She didn't recall any girl ever coming out of the owner's office with a fresh bruise. All of them were obtained from customers that liked to play hard. He also seemed genuinely concerned with the women's physical and mental health, demanding all kinds of health tests twice a year. When I first came here, he even told me I could leave at any time if I wanted, she thought. But I don't have anywhere to go, no friends or family, she realized with a frown. Not like they'd take me back if I had any, not after learning about my job.

After stepping out of the shower, she quickly dressed and went to her room to make herself presentable again. On the way from the bathroom to her room she carried the clown outfit back to costume room.

The fifteen minutes she asked for have passed, and surely enough, there was a knock on the door. She stood up and opened the door and a blonde guy, about 30 years old, barged inside her room. Ruby shut the door with a sigh. Can't I just have one normal guy come here today? Just once, damn it.

She took a look at the newcomer. He didn't look bad, actually. He wasn't the best looking guy she met, but his hair was orderly, he didn't dress like a hobo, wasn't fat and actually looked quite normal, other than his hyperactivity.

Ruby got closer to him and at that point noticed that the guy didn't know what to do. Great, a virgin. She rolled her eyes.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down and asked, gently as ever: "What do you want to do?"

The guy looked around the room, obviously looking for words. When he finally spoke, his voice was shaking.

"Umm… I-I… Not really sure…"

"Listen up. You have to tell me the truth now. Will you?"

The guy nodded, albeit hesitantly.

"Good. So, tell me, is this your first time?"

The guy nodded again and bowed his head in shame.

"Hey, no need to be ashamed now. Everyone had their first. Hell, I was pretty nervous before I lost my virginity."

She looked at the guy, waiting for his reaction. When she didn't get any, she spoke up again.

"Listen. If you really don't know what to do, I have a special package, so to say, for people that haven't done it before. You wouldn't believe how often it happens that virgins come here."

This made the guy look up at Ruby. "I-Is that true?"

"Totally. We get like five virgins a day almost every day. So what do you say?"

"I-I might want to try that package, then."

"Good. Make yourself comfortable, I'll be back in a moment."

The guy silently nodded and Ruby went out her room and in the bathroom, as she did every time she had to please a virgin.

There she looked at her own reflection in the mirror, breathing deeply and then shutting her eyes. The figure of the white girl appeared before her again. I loved you so much. You loved me, too, at least you said so. But when you had to go, you wouldn't even call me, you wouldn't even answer my calls. Why? Why did you have to torture me so? I couldn't get over you, so I got myself into this, and now, every time I have to have sex with a virgin, I think of our first time. How clumsy we both were, how we both enjoyed it and most of all, how we both wanted it. Never before or after that have I felt like that day. Ever.

Ruby looked down at her left wrist and gazed at the 'W'-shaped scar that ran over it. She wanted to carve her love's whole name there, but she couldn't make herself finish the deed. She felt like a complete wimp afterwards, almost wanting to buy a gun and leave this world that way. But she never really got to it. I didn't want to die, not even with the shit my life turned into, she thought to herself. It wasn't wanting to live. It was not wanting to die.

Ruby felt a tear run down her cheek. She quickly wiped it away with a paper towel, not wanting to smear her makeup. She took another deep breath and went towards her room again.

She entered the room and noticed the guy sitting on her bed, still fully dressed.

"I'm sorry it took a while."

"Huh?", the guy said, looking up at Ruby with oblivious eyes.

"Nevermind. Let's get started, shall we?"

The other person in the room nervously nodded. Ruby went towards him, undoing her bra while doing so. She sat down in the guy's lap, grabbing his hands and putting them on her breasts. The guy started fumbling around with his hands, which made Ruby roll her eyes again, albeit in a way the guy wouldn't notice. She didn't want to crush his confidence again. He seemed to find his stride after a while, though, as his movements started becoming more coherent. Ruby then pressed his head down on her bosom. "You can kiss or lick them too, you know," she whispered in his ear. The guy complied with what he perceived as an order and Ruby couldn't help but chuckle a bit.

After a while she got tired of being licked everywhere but where she was supposed to, so she took his head in her arms, lifted it up to her face and kissed the guy on the lips. Without even asking for entrance, his mouth opened and Ruby used that moment to push her tongue inside his mouth. In this moment the guy opened his eyes in amazement, seemingly frozen in place. Jesus fuck, you weren't even Frenched before? You must be the most innocent virgin I ever had a chance of fucking. Well, second most innocent, she reminded herself, thinking back at their first time.

She broke the kiss and stood up for a moment, then lay down on the bed, pulling the guy next to her. She took his hand and guided it down her stomach, under her panties and towards the centre of her pleasure. She found out that she was actually already kind of wet, but even better than that was the look on the guy's face. Ruby barely held back a full, hearty laugh and whispered in his ear: "Now start rubbing. Gently. I will tell you if and when you should speed up."

The guy nodded furiously and did as he was told. As he was rubbing, one of Ruby's hands started caressing his thighs as she started moaning gently. This evoked another surprised look from him, but he didn't dare stop his movement out of fear of angering Ruby. She found his behaviour adorable. I actually like deflowering people, she thought. If nothing else, at least I can take them at my own pace and however I want, unlike some freaks that almost kill the woman they fuck.

After a few minutes of getting her pussy rubbed and moaning softly, she pulled his hand out of her panties and brought it to her mouth, taking one of the two soaked fingers in. This was always her favourite part of fucking a virgin, tasting herself and seeing their surprised look. When she finished one finger, she brought the hand to his mouth, which gained her another incredulous look.

"Go ahead, lick the other finger. It's good," Ruby breathed out. Unsurely, the guy licked the wet finger.

"How do you like the taste?"

"I-It's good."

"Want to taste some more?"

His eyes widened in surprise. "You don't mean…"

"Yup, I do," Ruby said nonchalantly and removed her panties in one move. Then she looked at the person next to her. "Well, what are you waiting for? It's not going to lick itself."

This snapped the guy out of it. He slowly and unsurely moved his face towards Ruby's legs and when he finally got to where Ruby wanted him, he froze in place.

"Now, put out your tongue, like that, yes," she nodded after seeing him do what he was told, "and lick the opening for a while. Don't worry, I'll tell you what to do."

His tongue made contact with Ruby's outer lips. The touch was warm, but still weak. "You can get closer, you know, it won't eat you." The guy moved slightly closer, which made Ruby feel most of his tongue. "That's better."

After giving the dude some directions on how to perform cunnilingus, she decided it was enough and that it was her turn to show him some tricks of her own. She pulled his head towards her and said: "Now I want you to lie down and relax. I'll take over now."

The guy nodded. Ruby then realized he was still fully clothed. She mounted him, pressing her naked and wet pussy on the bulge in his pants, and unbuttoned his shirt, which revealed a nice torso, not too toned but not thick, either. She then took her time to take the shirt completely off, all the while gently rubbing their privates together.

Suddenly, the guy gasped and closed his eyes, shaking. Oh for fuck's sake, don't tell me you came just from this. Looking down at his pants confirmed her suspicions. She let out a sigh while the guy was still preoccupied with his orgasm. When he calmed down, she started slowly pulling his pants down, but got startled when the guy's hand held one of hers. She looked at him and noticed he was scared of something.

"W-Wait. D-Don't you charge per… Ummm… You know…"

Oh, that's what is scaring you. She smiled at that. "No. The virgin package has one price, no matter the number of your shots." It's to make you come back for more, she wanted to say but chose not to. He didn't need to know. "It's only anal and some other, weirder fetishes that charge double."

That seemed to calm the guy down since he let go of her hand so she could resume her activity. Soon enough, the guy was in his briefs only, a stain reminding Ruby of her previous endeavour. The bulge was quite big, Ruby noticed. How come this guy never got laid? He's not ugly and he has a pretty sizeable little guy. He should have confidence to ask a girl out. She decided not to care and got busy removing the last piece of cloth on his body. When the briefs flew off the bed, she looked the guy in the face and saw him blush a bit. So cute and innocent. It reminded Ruby of her true love's first time and how embarrassed they both looked, virgins and not knowing what to do exactly. This was a little different, though.

Her hand started snaking up his thighs, gently scraping the skin of his legs with her nails. He tensed up under her touch. Not long later her hand was at the stem of the organ. She gently started running a finger up and down the shaft, which earned her another surprised gasp. She smiled for a brief moment and got her mouth closer, tongue sticking out. As she licked the warm skin, the guy let out a moan, which made Ruby giggle. She really liked fucking virgins. Just you wait for my next move, she thought to herself with a devilish grin running across her face. Her tongue reached the peak and started gently making circles around the more sensitive head, all the while running a finger up and down the opposite side of his penis. This simple move made the guy rock hard again. She pulled her mouth away and looked the guy in the eye briefly before taking the head in her mouth.

The guy's body convulsed and he let out a scream that hinted at fear mixed with previously unknown pleasure. The convulsion made him push a little deeper in Ruby's mouth, which in turn made him shake again. Ruby smiled in her mind as she added her tongue to the lips caressing the warm skin of this guy's very smooth penis. This of course made him jolt again and Ruby was surprised as she already felt his precum on her tongue. I won't even need to tend to his balls. She decided she'd play the "time bomb", as she liked to call it, or "playing with fire", as the other women in the institution did. Her mouth made a few bobs up and down the shaft when a thicker drop of precum made its way up on Ruby's tongue. She took the organ out of her mouth and positioned herself in such a way that the man would ejaculate on her belly. While most guys wanted to finish either on her face or in her mouth, Ruby didn't really like that. She much preferred to have a guy ejaculate somewhere she didn't have to close her eyes or taste the horrible taste of sperm. She started stroking and before long, the guy was ejaculating on her toned belly, leaving white lines over most of the bottom end of it. With every spurt that came out of the organ, the guy let out a gasping moan. The warmth of the thick liquid felt nice on Ruby's abdomen and her mouth widened in a smile.

When he finished, Ruby turned on her belly and pulled herself upwards towards his head, drying her belly in the process.

"Now, you have a choice," she said. "You can either end our session or you can take my pussy. Now, like I said before, it doesn't change the amount you need to pay. So, what will it be?"

The guy seemed out of breath and was breathing pretty rapidly. He barely heard what Ruby was saying to him, but still managed a weak: "I want to… Try."

Ruby nodded and pulled a condom out of one of her drawers. She put it on the guy's chest. "When you're ready to go, put it on." The guy nodded back as Ruby lay down and decided to wait. She closed her eyes for a moment and she appeared in front of her again. Why can't I forget you? You're clearly not coming back, not after five years. You'd probably even hate me if you knew what I do for living.

She was brought back to reality with a gentle nudge to her arm. She opened her eyes and noticed the guy looking at her. "Sorry, I didn't really sleep," she said. "I just…"

She didn't continue as she saw the guy nod sympathetically. Shit, he must think I think he's super bad. Well, he kind of is, but that's beside the point. He can't be Dionysus if it's his first time. She then noticed that the condom was on his erect penis. She simply parted her legs and motioned for him to go for it.

He barely got it in. This was the only part she hated about virgins. They never could find the hole and would always fumble for a while, almost drying the condom before it even got in. Finally he managed to do it and Ruby had to let out a genuine gasp as she felt her hole filled with his sizeable flesh rod. He immediately stopped.

Ruby looked him straight in the eye. "Don't worry. You did nothing wrong. It's just that I'm a bit small and your penis is quite big. Go on," she urged him and he complied somewhat reluctantly. What happened next was also inevitable for a virgin; namely, of course he didn't have any rhythm and he was pumping irregularly because of course he was.

With every passing second, he seemed to find more and more pace and his thrusts became quite rhythmical, which made Ruby a bit happier about the whole ordeal. Ruby anticipated he wouldn't last for much longer, but when he finally had his release, Ruby wasn't really prepared for it. As she felt his member throb inside her and his grunts of pleasure, her first instinct was to pull the penis out before he spilled too much of his seed. She was always scared of it, but she remembered that she forces a condom on anyone fucking her pussy almost instantaneously. Completely spent from his third orgasm, the guy fell on her, still inside her. Ruby pushed him to the side so she could get a breath of air.

When he regained his strengths, he rose from his bed and started undressing with a condom still on. Ruby noticed that.

"Umm, are you not removing the condom first?"

The guy realized that his member was still dressed and tugged at the condom clumsily enough that he managed to somehow spill the seed on the floor. Ruby rolled her eyes at the sight, but said nothing. When the guy was fully dressed, he pulled out his wallet. After Ruby told him the price, he put the money on her nightstand, blushed once more, looked at her and muttered something that sounded like 'Thankyouandgoodbye'. As he shut the door behind him, Ruby sighed and lifted herself up to clean the sperm on her floor.

Twenty minutes later, Ruby was ready for another customer, probably her last one for the day. Nineteen. Not bad, at the least I'll tie my record today. No girls, though, unfortunately. Ruby preferred girls. They were usually much gentler than men, but she didn't have much choice in the gender of the person wanting to spend time with her.

The customer number 19 was a relatively short and lean man, not older than 25. He also had a shaven head. Ruby knew from experience that shaven heads meant one of two things: a Nazi or a cancer patient. Other guys that had their heads shaven never came to institutions like the one she was in. The man's demeanour clearly signalled a Nazi, though. This was further proven when he took off his leather jacket that revealed a black tank top and a large swastika tattoo on each of his shoulders. He completely undressed before telling Ruby what he wanted and doing so, he revealed more racist tattoos. Ruby despised racists, but unfortunately she wasn't in a position to choose her customers. Luckily for her, she wasn't dark-skinned or looked like anything not from Vale.

He rubbed his penis while telling Ruby what he wanted to do. "I want to do you from behind, doggystyle. I also hope you don't mind choking." His penis was expanding as he was telling those words, closing in at about average length, but a little above average thickness. Ruby silently nodded and thanked her wisdom that made her put some lubricant down her panties before this guy arrived. She knew she wouldn't be able to get wet for him, and that would hurt, especially with his thickness. The lubricant was strawberry flavoured, not that the customers would care. But she did. She would pleasure herself almost every night, thinking about her one true love, and afterwards, when she would taste her juices, the strawberry flavour, which was her favourite, would make her essence taste even better, at least to her. Finally having an orgasm after the whole day of fucking and not getting any calmed her down and helped her fall asleep.

She got to the condom drawer and pulled one out and handed it to her customer, who just laughed.

"Nope, you put it on. With your mouth."

If she would be asked to react to this, it would be a disgusted groan, but she couldn't do that in front of a customer, so she knelt and took the condom out of its container. She put the end of it on the head of the man's penis and slowly pushed the latex down the shaft with her lips. The shaft was luckily short enough for her to reach the stem without using hands to roll the condom down. When condom was on the man, she silently rose and positioned herself on her bed in a doggy position.

The man got on the bed and thrust himself in Ruby's vagina hard, which elicited a small gasp and a wince from the unexpected pain. Soon enough one of his hands got to her neck and he grabbed her and pulled her head upwards while continuing the thrusts. He squeezed hard against her windpipe and Ruby felt she was going to faint. This angered her so much, especially since she had to endure it from a Nazi, that she reached for her knife with one hand while slapping the man's hand with her other one. The knife's blade sprung out and she turned towards the guy, enraged.

"You fucking piece of shit! Are you trying to kill me?"

"What the fuck? Calm your tits, girl, I told you I will choke you a bit."

This only further enraged Ruby. "Choke a bit? You call almost knocking me unconscious a bit? You sick fuck. I do almost everything. I suck, I fuck in every hole, I even did double anal once, I take facials, mouth creampies, I swallow, I do tittyfucking even if my tits aren't huge, I do rough sex, footjobs and other feet related fetishes, almost every other fetish as well, I do lesbo sex, hell, you can even take a piss on me, though I do charge quadruple for that. You can also choke me a little, but fucking knocking me unconscious while doing it is the one thing you won't do with me!"

The man's eyes shrunk in anger. "I will choke you however much I want, whore! That's how you get paid, by fucking in every way people want you to!" He lunged forward, seemingly ignoring the seven inch blade in Ruby's hands or dismissing it as a toy knife or something. That was a big mistake on his part.

Ruby didn't give that impression to people, what with her small posture and all that, but she was actually very well versed in knife and hand to hand fighting, she needed to learn that to survive the more aggressive customers like this one. She effortlessly dodged the man's lunge, slashed at one of his swastika tattoos and knocked him unconscious with a single blow to the side of his neck as he was crying out in pain, holding his hurt shoulder with the unhurt hand. Then she picked up the phone to reach the front desk. Not even two rings afterwards, the phone was picked up.

"Front desk."

"Hi. It's Ruby. Can you dispose of this aberration of a man I was assigned to? He tried to fucking kill me."

"I'll be right there, Ruby. Are you all right?"

"I am, no worries about that."

"Okay then."

There was a click and the line went silent. Not even a minute later the owner and two thugs opened the door to Ruby's room. Upon seeing the naked man unconsciously lying on his belly with a bleeding shoulder, the owner jumped to now partly dressed Ruby. She wasn't going to let the grunts see her naked. He talked with a concern in his voice.

"What happened here, Rubes?"

Ruby answered with bile in her voice. "This fucking Nazi wanted to choke me while fucking. I let him but he almost knocked me out. Then I told him I don't play like that. He tried to assault me, but I stopped him."

He brought her closer to him and caressed her hair gently, kissing at the spot in the middle of her head where her hair parted. "Good girl." He turned towards his grunts. "Grab him, let's wake him up."

The two thugs grabbed one of the unconscious man's arms each while the owner went to grab a bowl of water that he promptly emptied on the man's face.

He woke up with a gasp, not knowing where he was. As the picture in his head started to sharpen, he remembered. He winced in pain, Ruby thought he sounded like a baby, though that was probably because of the fury she felt towards the man.

"Are you the pimp here?", he shouted.

The owner said in a calm voice. "I am the owner of this place, yes."

"Well then, discipline your whores to take what they get without being bitches about it!"

The owner slapped him on the head with the handle of his cane. The man screamed profanities afterwards.

"First of all, my women are perfectly well disciplined. Second, yelling at me in my own institution is not making you gain any sympathy for your cause. Thirdly, this particular 'whore' as you have completely tastelessly called her, told me you nearly knocked her out during sex. Is that true or not?"

"I did just like I do with every other whore!"

"Did you nearly knock her out during sex?", the owner asked with anger in his voice.

"I guess."

"You guess?"

"What kind of a pimp are you, treating your whores like queens?"

This earned him another hit from the cane. "I'm the kind of pimp that realizes that happy employees do their job better than the unhappy ones. That's why my institution is among the top institutions of this kind on Remnant. And you would see that all institutions near the top of that list use the same way of employee treatment as I do, if you bothered to check or read. You can't even read properly, can you? This place is Danny's, not Denny's, which is where your kind goes to have their fantasies fulfilled."

The owner turned back towards Ruby. "Throw his clothes on the street. He can dress in the gutter. It's probably still more hygienic than his home." Then he turned towards his thugs. "All right, boys, get him out of here. I can't stand to look at him for another second."

The thugs nodded and left the room, the man in their grip screaming profanities and other stuff at the owner. When the door closed, he saw Ruby throwing the last of the man's clothes out the window, holding some money in her hands.

"Take the rest of the day off. And don't bother giving me that money; keep all of it."

"Thanks. Though you can send a woman up here if one decides to ask for me," Ruby replied.

"You really like girls, don't you?"

"My only love in the real world was a girl."

"Yes, you have told me most stuff about it. A very sad story for you, indeed. Well then, I must be off. Good night, Ruby."

"Good night, sir."

He gave her one last warm smile before opening the door. Outside the window, a thud and a scream of pain followed by a great amount of profanity was heard as someone was thrown on the street unceremoniously. The owner let out a snicker and left.

Not too long after that, Ruby's phone rang. She picked it up quickly.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Rubes. There's a woman here asking specifically for you. I told her you're off for today, but then I remembered you said you'd take a girl."

"Sure, send her up."

"One thing, though: she asked me if you could wear something like a formal dress and a mask."

"Umm, a bit weird, but sure."

"Okay then, she'll be up in five so you can get ready."

"Thanks."

The line went flat and Ruby bolted for the costume room, where she found a red dress that went down to her knees and a matching mask that covered her face, leaving only the mouth exposed. Once again, she was astonished at the incredible variety their costume room had. She quickly went back to her room and dressed. Not a second too soon, as there was a knock on the door.

When Ruby opened the door to her room, she stood there for a second with a mouth open. A slightly annoyed voice said: "Ummm, can I please come in?"

"S-Sure, I'm so sorry, I thought you looked familiar, is all."

The woman strutted in graciously in her snow white dress with blue frills that went down to her ankles, and long white hair flowing in a ponytail down to her waist, off to the side so her whole perfect figure was pronounced. Ruby would recognize that figure anywhere. She came here! How?

Ruby stood at the door, still speechless. The woman looked at her, now slightly more annoyed. "What is it? Why are you looking at me like I'm some sort of a famous person?"

Because you are, my love. "I-I'm sorry. You just have an incredibly beautiful body," Ruby managed to stutter. Of course she doesn't recognize me, I have even dyed my hair a different colour. Red hair was the way to make money and combined with her cuteness, Ruby had a lot of traffic coming her way. Long gone was the black short hair she had when she was this woman's girlfriend. Red and mid-back length felt so much better for her in this life.

The woman didn't seem to react with her mouth, but Ruby knew she blushed underneath the mask. "Thank you, I guess."

"Umm, so, let's start. What do you want to do, Miss?"

"C-Can we just t-talk a bit first?"

"Sure. Have a seat. Unfortunately I don't have a chair, so the bed will have to do."

The woman nodded and sat down. "I know you probably don't want to hear my life story."

"On the contrary, you're my last customer today, I have all the time in the world to listen." Also because it's you, but that doesn't really matter.

"Well then, I still won't tell you the complete story. I'll start about eight years ago."

Eight years? Wasn't that when we started… It is! But it can't be that, right? She must have forgotten all about me in this time, not even trying to contact me.

"I was going to some high school and I met a girl there."

Oh my god, she's really talking about us!

"We were classmates. I didn't like her at first, I thought she was a hyperactive dolt. But we became close friends and then we kind of just happened and started dating. This girl enchanted me in a way nobody ever has. I just felt so peaceful and happy the whole time we were together. I really fell in love with that girl."

Damn it. Tears started building up in Ruby's eyes, but she couldn't let them fall. She couldn't, god damn it! I can't reveal that I am who I am, she'll despise me if I do!

"We were together for three years and in those three years we did just about anything together. But after graduation my father demanded that I find a man and leave her or else. I had no choice, but I hated myself for doing what I did. But my father is not a person you'd argue with. Me being in love didn't matter to him, all he cared about was that his daughter can't be a lesbian. I hated him for what he made me do, but I hated myself more for complying with his orders. I could have ran away with that girl. I even wanted to, and it was her idea too, but I simply couldn't."

Tears started welling in the woman's eyes, Ruby could see that from her voice that went from clear and determined to shaking and insecure. Meanwhile, Ruby started crying silently, thanking whoever designed the mask she wore that it made her tears run around the rim of it instead of running straight down her cheeks.

"I should have called her a few days later, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I thought she hated me and I deserved it. She called me a few times, but I was afraid to pick up, thinking she'd be angry with me, and I didn't want to hear her angry voice. When I have finally decided to give her a call, her number didn't exist anymore and nobody of our old classmates knew where to find her. She disappeared into the ground, as far as I know. But I have never stopped loving her. I am married to a man now, though I didn't pick him; my father picked him for me. I have a child with him, but I'm as far from a happy woman as you can get. My life is empty without my one love."

This was when the woman snapped and started crying. Ruby jumped to her side and silently embraced her, the woman's cold and hard mask making contact with Ruby's shoulder, who started feeling the tears trickle down on her. Ruby held the woman until she regained her composure.

"Her name was Ruby. These five years without her were absolute hell for me. I kept searching for her everywhere, but couldn't find her. I have all but given up now. I wanted to feel loved for a while, so I got here. Then, when I came in, I saw that this… institution has a girl named Ruby. I guess when I saw the name my hopes of finding her rose again. And to be quite frank, I couldn't be a happier woman if I found her, even if it was in a place like this. For a moment I thought you might be her, but…"

This was too much for Ruby. She took off her mask and looked the weeping woman in the eye, shaking with every word she spoke. "Weiss… It is me."

Weiss looked at Ruby in disbelief for a moment, studying her face, dirty from the tears that still ran down it. Her gaze finally focused on Ruby's eyes. They were a dead giveaway, Ruby having silver eyes, unlike any other girl she'd ever seen.

"Oh my god, Ruby, it is you!", she cried out, threw her mask away and threw her arms around Ruby, hugging her tightly and crying in her shoulder again. Ruby did the same and for a few minutes the two women just sat there, on a bed, in a brothel, just embracing and crying into each other's shoulder.

Ruby was the first to stop crying. She was still sobbing when she spoke, though.

"Did… Did you really mean… That you don't mind… Finding me here?"

Weiss lifted her head from Ruby's shoulder, cupped her face in her hands and gently kissed her lips. Ruby leant in the kiss as if it was her first, the immense joy pulsating through her veins. When they parted, Weiss managed to say: "Yes! I couldn't be happier! I've been looking for you for five years, you dolt!"

Ruby smiled at the nickname. Weiss never stopped calling her that. At first it was a word she used when she was angry with Ruby, but later it turned into an expression of affection that meant more to Ruby than if she said 'I love you'.

"I never stopped thinking about you either, Weiss. You have no idea how hard I wanted you back in my life. I just love you so much."

"How did you… End up here, though?", Weiss asked.

"Well, the truth is, the first three years after we parted, I was basically in a self-destruction phase. I was pretty much homeless, but my looks have earned me a lot of invites to other people's houses. Sure, most of them just wanted to use me, but when they did, I just ran out of their house or apartment. I wanted to forget you, since I thought you forgot about me, what with not receiving any calls from you. When I called you and you didn't answer, I really thought it was over. Winters were hard to survive out in the streets, but I managed somehow. One day I got really desperate and wanted to end it all," Ruby showed Weiss her left wrist, making Weiss gasp in shock.

"Why would you do something like that?"

"You were my world. You still are. And without you in my life, it didn't seem worth living. My initial plan was to carve your whole name into my hand, but I chickened out."

Ruby stopped talking for a while, battling back the tears. Weiss held her close in that time, she herself barely able to hold back the tears.

"Then, about two years ago I found this place. I entered, not knowing what kind of a place it is. The owner asked me what I want and I asked him for a place to stay. He offered me that and a job. Naturally, I was interested in getting a job of some kind. Then he started to explain what the job is, and for a while I wanted to say no and run away, as far away as I could. But then it occurred to me: I could have a place to stay, money to buy stuff and everything. The other thing that jumped into my mind was the chance of one of the customers finally helping me get over you."

She stopped talking again, a few tears running down her cheeks. Weiss wiped them away with her hand.

"In these two years here I did some stuff I'm not proud of. I don't think you want to know the details, even I get sick when I think back on some stuff. I thought it would make me forget what I had, but it only made me crave your gentle and loving touch more. No matter what I did, you were always there, in the back of my mind. Every time someone came here that made me feel bad, I just shut my eyes and there you were, making it easier for me to endure."

Weiss was crying again, holding Ruby even tighter.

"Luckily for me, if stuff got too hectic, I knew I can always defend myself and call the owner to rid me of the problem. He's a great guy. He is genuinely interested in our health and doesn't let us get hurt. He lets us have half of what we make, too, and we can leave whenever we want if we tell him."

Weiss lifted her head up at Ruby's last words. "Y-You can leave?"

Ruby nodded. "I've seen quite a few women come here just for a few months and he never made a scene about it. He told me I can leave at any time when I took the job. It's even in my contract."

Weiss's eyes brightened. "Then you can come with me, live with me."

"Didn't you say you have a husband?"

"I do. But I also live in a manor and I could always use another servant. You'd live in the same house as I do, you'd be my personal maid, but you wouldn't have to work hard."

"Would your husband approve of me?"

"He can go fuck himself with a cactus," Weiss said with bile in her voice. Ruby sat there with an open mouth, not expecting such words from Weiss of all people. "I hate him. And he isn't even home most of the time, so we'd get a lot of alone time, Ruby. It would be almost like it once was."

"Weiss, are you serious?"

"I told you I still love you immensely. We can leave now, if you want."

Ruby was over the moon. No more nasty pricks trying to jam their dick down my throat. It sounds too good to be true. She wouldn't miss them in a million years.

"I want to come with you, Weiss," Ruby said and threw herself around her found-again love, leaning in for a long kiss.

When they parted, Weiss asked: "Do you want to come right now?"

"Well, I can come tomorrow morning. It's late now and I have to talk with the owner about it and pack my stuff and…"

She couldn't finish the sentence as her mouth was obstructed by Weiss's lips. A second later, Weiss broke the kiss. "I understand, Ruby. I'll be going now. Here's my address and I can't wait to see you tomorrow. I love you."

"I love you too, Weiss," Ruby said, taking the paper with Weiss's address. "Come on, let's go downstairs."

Weiss looked at her incredulously. "I have to tell the owner I'm quitting," Ruby answered matter-of-factly.

"Oh."

They went down the corridor and the set of stairs, holding hands. When they came to the front desk, the owner noticed their behaviour and greeted them with a smile.

"Hey, Rubes, what's up?"

"My only love came back to me!", she said happily and then hugged Weiss tightly, rubbing the top of her head with Weiss's cheek.

"Oh," the owner said in a serious voice. "I guess this means the end of your work here?"

"Well, she offered me a place to stay. You remember how I got here first, asking for a place to sleep?"

"I remember. And your contract says you can leave at any moment, so I can't really hold you back if that's your wish."

"Thank you so much for being so understanding."

"It's been a pleasure working with you, Rubes," he said in a slightly saddened voice, extending his hand.

Ruby took it. "Same here."

With that settled, Ruby walked Weiss to the door, where they kissed for the last time.

"I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yes. By the way, did you ever… You know… With the owner?"

"Huh?", Ruby looked at Weiss, surprised. "Oh. No, no. He swings the other way."

With that, they hugged one more time and then Weiss left. Ruby watched her until her car disappeared from her view.

"I thought you said you were leaving," the owner said to her from right behind her back.

Ruby turned to face him. "Well, I have to pack everything and she's a very busy woman and I need to get some sleep before I go and…"

His hand on her shoulder shut her up. "I get it. Your release papers will be ready in the morning, I'll just need a signature from you and you'll be free to go."

Ruby smiled and went to her room to spend her final night there, her face radiant with joy. For the first time in five years I'll be sleeping with a smile on my face.
