Author's Notes (very scrambled, as there's lots to say):

I'm back :). I never really left. I'm just a horrible procrastinator, incredibly indecisive about how I spend my time, and think very little of myself.

Thank you so so much for all the kind words on the first chapter. It makes me really happy to hear people liked it, and it's part of why I want to write more.

Two things that might interest you: I have a Tumblr you can follow if you want to for some reason (I go by the same name). Really the only reason is if you want to ask me questions, lewd or otherwise, or check out my likes. Also, I started a new subreddit, r/cutefutanari. Since basically everyone told me they thought the first chapter was cute, I thought you might be interested :3.

Now that I've written 2 things, the question is what to write next. There will be one more chapter to this story, because there's a scene in my head I simply need you to see. That may or may not be the last chapter, simply because there are so many other things I want to write. Right now, there are 6 other things I want to make. 2 RWBY, 1 Flip Flappers, 1 League of Legends, and 2 original, so they couldn't go here. These would all be smut, by the way. That's really all I'm interested in in terms of fan fiction.

Be warned this chapter is quite fluff heavy. Originally, there was no lemon at all, but I decided to change that. I don't expect this trend to continue. You can expect first chapter levels of fluff in the future. Also, if you didn't pick up on it last chapter, Ruby and Blake are both bottom bunk for the purposes of this story. It's surprisingly important.



It was storming outside. That was the first thing Blake noticed when she woke up in the dead of the night. Rain hit hard against the dorm's window, and thunder rumbled somewhere far away. For Blake, it was a strange thing to wake up to. She had a history of sleeping through any weather, no matter how severe. Despite the annoyance at being woken up at whatever ungodly hour it was, the downpour brought her a great sense of calm and safety. So what had woken her up?

Her mind begged her to ignore this question. To let herself be pushed back under by the weight of it all. Back into the warm darkness.

No. Something… there was something wrong… She hadn't noticed at first, but now it was obvious. One of her roommates was crying.

Silently, Blake slipped out from under her covers and made her way toward the noise. The floor was cool on her bare feet, waking her up just a bit. When she came to a stop, her feline eyes had no trouble seeing Ruby through the darkness. She was tightly bundled up and facing away from the window. She was shaking… Leaning over, Blake simply grabbed her shoulder, but it was enough to make the girl jump. Blake reeled back and swore under her breath.

"Ruby, it's me," she whispered, putting her hand back more delicately this time. "I didn't mean to scare you."

The team leader started sitting up, still facing away from Blake. She sniffled, wiping away her tears with the length of her arm. Finally, she turned. "Oh, uh…" It was hard to find a voice. "Did I wake you up?"

"That doesn't matter," she said, climbing on the bed and wiping a wet spot from Ruby's cheek that she had missed. "What's wrong?"

"I'm… scared of thunder. Always have been." She couldn't look at her partner as the tears came back. "So stupid…" she mumbled.

And Blake just hugged her. "I'm sorry you have to feel this way. It's not your fault." Her voice was thick honey. "I know how brave you are." Ruby had nothing to say as she sobbed into Blake's shoulder. It felt good to cry. She felt Blake's hand run slowly up and down her back, eventually moving to her hair which she patted and stroked.

It took a while, but eventually Ruby's emotions had a chance to settle, like foam. She could still feel the tightness of fear in her heart, but had a grip on her feelings once again.

"Ruby, would it help… if I stayed in your bed for a little while?"

"…Yes, please."

"Okay." When she broke up the hug, Ruby still wasn't keen on looking at her. They proceeded quickly and clumsily under the sheets until Blake ended up spooning Ruby. Honestly, it felt kinda weird, but seemed like the right thing to do. Blake had never done this with anyone, and figured Ruby hadn't either, so she thought she would ask, "Is this okay?"

"Mmhm." Ruby was still shaking occasionally, though… It was heartbreaking. Over the next many minutes, Blake tried several things to make her feel better.

First, Blake settled herself. She breathed deeply through her nose and out her mouth. Her mind was cleared of everything but the rain on the window, the warmth of the sheets, and the girl in front of her. She wanted to project an aura of safety; to transfer her steady breathing by osmosis. Maybe it was a dumb thought. Maybe.

Knowing Ruby loved it, she began purring for her. She even rubbed her face gently between Ruby's shoulder blades, as was a cat's want. Her tail was brought into the mix, sliding to Ruby's thigh and brushing up and down. And on occasion, she would halt her purring to whisper something – a simple phrase like, "I'm here, Ruby," or, "I've got you."

It was an odd cocktail of emotions for Ruby. On one side anxiety and unease, but also an overwhelming sense of love and kindness. The rise and fall of Blake's chest against her back, the warm breath tickling her exposed neck, and the fluffy tail rubbing her thigh were all exhilarating. Not to mention that the simple fact that she was sharing a bed with Blake made her heart quicken. It all gave her tingles which rolled up her spine and into her head where they just rolled around for a while. She could swear her hair was standing up straight.

Well, she then realized that something else was standing up straight too.

"Um, Blake…"

"Mm?"

"I'm hard."

"Oh. Sorry, is that my fault…? Do you want me to take care of it?"

"You don't have to…" Blake kissed her neck and purred for just a moment.

"You're so sweet, but I asked if you wanted me to."

"Y-yeah, of course."

"Okay then."

She gave her one more peck on the neck and then pushed the sheets down below their waists. Ruby rolled onto her back in anticipation of what was going to happen.

"Can you sit up a bit for me?" Blake asked, and she silently obeyed. While she was at it, she lifted her butt and pulled her sweats down to her thighs. It was always nice when her Johnny got a chance to breathe. She would even masturbate that way sometimes, only touching herself through her clothes for a few minutes to get the satisfying feeling of letting her hardon out. Out of habit she started stroking herself. Blake grabbed her hand.

"That's my job," she said, replacing Ruby's hand with her own. To Ruby's surprise, she wasn't moving down to between her legs. As if reading her mind, Blake said, "It's just going to be a handjob tonight, okay? I don't want to gag and wake the others." There were absolutely no complaints from Ruby. She was ecstatic to just sit back and let Blake tack care of her however she wanted. This was the second time now, though. She would pay her back eventually.

It started off quite teasingly. Blake got some saliva on her hand and rolled her fingers over the overly sensitive head. Sometimes she would take her pointer finger and make little circles on the underside of the head. She would also tease the tip by making her ring and middle fingers into a tiny vagina. She would push Ruby against the entrance, even let her go inside a few times, but never more than an inch or two. The last thing she did was with the palm of her hand, simply rubbing the thing like she was polishing it, occasionally closing her fingers and squeezing very gently. Eventually, she could tell it was getting to be too much stimulation and moved her hand lower. From there, she pumped very slowly, building up to a comfortable pace that she could keep for a while.

Blake worked away at it, but it was by all accounts a fairly lackluster process. A means to an end of getting Ruby off. Not that she disliked doing it – far from it – but the time of night was really starting to weigh on her eyelids. She started to slip away from consciousness a few times, head sagging and hand slowing until she caught herself and jutted awake. Ruby noticed as well.

"I can do it by myself if you want to go to bed."

"Thanks. I'll be fine," she said, resting her head on Ruby's bosom and neckbone. She smiled. "I can hear your heartbeat and feel it in your dick… It's nice." Pulling her hand away, she saw the rod twitch along with Ruby's pulse, which she found quite entertaining in her sleep-deprived state. She gave it a few good pokes and watched it bounce from side to side.

"Ah. Hey…"

Blake would have stuck her tongue out if Ruby could see her. "Sorry. It's so fun to play with." Without another word, she continued her task, though not before grabbing Ruby's hand and placing it on her head.

The petting began immediately, and now Blake purred because she couldn't help it. This time Ruby didn't limit herself to the top of Blake's head, wandering so far as the top of her neck or even scratching under her chin. She seemed to thoroughly enjoy it, her head gravitating towards wherever the hand was. Meanwhile, Ruby quite liked the vibration on her chest, so much so that it was getting hard to contain herself. She wanted so badly to moan Blake's name, or anything at all, but knew she shouldn't. Over the next few minutes she made tiny, involuntary noises that were desperate to be louder. Her legs and toes shuffled underneath the covers without her permission – a telltale sign. She was going to cum.

Blake picked up the pace just a hair when she detected this happening. She had forgotten just how loud Ruby could get, and so with her free hand she passed the girl a pillow to cover her mouth. It was important for her to finish soon, but it was also endless fun watching her get closer and closer… They could both feel her muscles tighten as Ruby crossed the point of no return, and moments later she came.

Hot spurts of cream leapt into the air a few inches and fell back down, coating the hand and pelvis. With every spurt came an uncontrollable moan from Ruby into her pillow. Her head was still tingling from before, and the combined feelings were incredible. Her legs spasmed and arms trembled as the orgasm spread like heat across her whole body. Blake herself let out a content hum, very pleased with the state she had put Ruby in. After 5 shots, the cum was simply dribbling out and down the shaft. Her muscles started to loosen and she slowly sank back onto her bed, uncovering her mouth with a satisfied exhale. Blake's hand slowed to a crawl, and finally stopped.

Ruby came down, pleasant aftershocks still running through her as a cat purred happily on her breasts. Blake picked her head up, running kisses along Ruby's neck and ending at her ear lobe. She whispered, "You're so cute when you cum. Let me get you a tissue." She slipped away only briefly, but Ruby could swear the air got colder while she was gone. She returned already wiping the seed off her hand, and when she sat back down she cleaned Ruby up as well. "Sorry it's not very romantic," she said. "I don't feel like eating right now." Finishing up, she threw the tissue into a nearby wastebasket while Ruby got her clothes in order. When all was said and done, Blake gave her a kiss on the cheek, to which Ruby gave back a tight hug.

"Thank you… so much… for all of that."

"You're welcome. I'll see you in the morning, okay?"

"Okay… I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you too."

Outside, the rain persisted but the thunder had all but stopped. Ruby could live with that, and with the drowsiness that always followed cumming, she drifted gently away.
