Weiss awoke to the sound of her scroll chiming, groggy, she fumbled unconsciously, reaching from under the covers she picked up the device, squinting at the harsh light as she silenced the alarm. Wait, when did she get into bed? When did she undress? When…

"Weiss?", Ruby nudged open her bedroom door, a tray held in hand.

"Ruby", Weiss sighed in relief, slumping back onto the mattress as the brunette carried the tray over to the bed and sat it on her bedside table before taking a seat on the bed.

"How are you feeling?", Ruby asked, taking her hand and planting a kiss on her knuckle.

"I've been better, thankyou for coming Ruby", Weiss offered a weak smile, before a frown replaced it, "Have I received any calls?".

"Yes, James…Mr Ironwood said that Winter's condition has stabilised but is currently in a medically induced coma, she is expected to make a full recovery", Ruby offered a warm smile, Weiss sighed closing her eyes, she shifted into a seated position and allowed Ruby to move the tray onto her lap, freshly cooked bacon, eggs and sausages and a mug of black coffee, a blueberry muffin on the side.

"You've been busy, thankyou Ruby, this…I…thankyou", Weiss smiled, properly for the first time that morning, Ruby leaned in and kissed her.

"It's nothing Weiss, I enjoy doing this for you, I'm just glad you reached out to me. Now eatup, I'm gonna go dish up my own", Ruby ordered before hopping off and walking out.

Weiss smiled down at the meal, she noticed it was arranged in a smiley face, sausages for lips, eggs for eyes and bacon for hair, Weiss chuckled, Ruby, ever the child at heart. She dug in, not caring to eat slowly, savouring the meal, she realised she was starving, having nothing but an apple or two since the first phonecall.

Ruby came in with a large plate of her own, lay beside Weiss and began eating as well. They remained silent, the only noises the scraping of cutlery, chewing and swallowing of their food. This was nice, Weiss thought, she wished she could have this every day, she wished she could have Ruby, every day.

Weiss clenched her fists at the thought, Ruby seemed to notice and lay a hand on her shoulder, Weiss gazed into her silver eyes and felt her heart ache. Ruby smiled, then gestured at her food, smiling, Weiss lay her cutlery down and shook her head, smiling weakly. Ruby took her tray, placed her own plate upon it and left the room, returning a few moments later with a glass of milk, which she drank heavily from before setting it down on the bedside table, and straddled Weiss' legs.

Weiss took Ruby's hand in her left, raising the right to run cup Ruby's cheek, her lip trembled, Ruby moved forward and wrapped Weiss in a hug, which was returned. Weiss buried her face into Ruby's shoulder as fresh tears spilled forth, Ruby whispered soothing words into her ear, rubbing circles on her back as she sobbed.

"I almost lost her Ruby, I almost lost my sister", Weiss whined, muffled, but audible.

"But you didn't, she's alive, and she'll be awake soon, you can talk to her, Mr Ironwood promised", Ruby soothed.

"She's all I have Ruby, she's all I've ever truly had, I was so scared, father called and why did it have to be him? He doesn't care, he never cared, not since she left, he might as well have gloated about it, but it was worse, nothing is worse than not caring Ruby, nothing", Weiss dissolved back into sobs, tightening her grip on Ruby.

"You have us Weiss, you have me, you have Blake, Yang, Pyrrha, Coco and Velvet, we're your family Weiss, we'll always be here for you", Ruby vowed, Weiss jerked away slightly, bloodshot, sorrowful eyes staring at her.

"Family? Ruby, I hurt Pyrrha, I drove her away, Coco too, Velvet is my secretary and she's in love with them, Blake had the guts to admit how she felt and Yang, all I am to Yang is the one using her sister, how could she care for me? I'm using you Ruby, to escape from all this, why do you care for me? I'm selfish, what have I ever done to deserve you Ruby? I hurt people who care about me, why do you care so much about me? How…", Weiss trailed off, another sob wracking her system as she clung back to her, sobs one again muffled.

"Because you need me Weiss, because you're not selfish, you don't hurt people, you're selfless and you hurt yourself. You pushed Pyrrha and Coco away because you were afraid you couldn't be who they deserved. You never used me, you were too afraid of pushing me away too, you kept me at arm's length, and I knew that from the beginning. I chose to have this relationship with you Weiss, I knew it wasn't going to be easy, I knew I had to have patience, I knew that one day you would stop holding me away, and you would let me in, like you are now.", Ruby pleaded, Weiss' sobs softened and Ruby gently prised her away.

Ruby used her own shirt to dry Weiss' tears, even now, with bags under her eyes, tear tracks down her cheeks, Weiss looked beautiful, and Ruby smiled at that, Weiss tried to smile back, but failed, hiccoughing.

"I can't, I can't do this alone, I thought I could, I tried so, so hard I put every inch of myself into it but I can't, I can't, Ruby I can't…I…I…", Weiss reached up, cupping Ruby's face, Ruby wrapped her arms around Weiss' waist.

"I love you Ruby, I love you so much", Weiss froze, eyes bulging, Ruby smiled and leant in, kissing Weiss gently.

"I know, I love you too", Weiss gasped, and broke out into a grin, a choked laugh later and Weiss had collapsed in Ruby's arms again, laughing and sobbing, clinging tightly to her waist, Ruby smiled down on her, feeling surge of pride.

"I love you too"

"So what is she doing now?", Blake asked from the scroll.

"I put her in the bath, made lots of bubbles, it's a big bath, with her hair I might lose her in there", They both laughed at that.

"Are you sure you're ok with this Blake? I know a lot of things have changed over the past couple days and…", Ruby trailed off.

"I'm sure Ruby, it was one of the first things I had to accept when I fell for you, Yang made sure of that. I'd like to meet her sometime, when she's ready of course", Blake assured.

"I think she'd like that, whats for lunch?", Ruby asked.

"Salad, something I can't burn", Blake joked.

"I'm sure you could if you tried", Ruby teased.

"Go jump in the bath before I come over and drown you", Blake growled playfully.

"Yes mistress, I love you", Ruby giggled.

"I love you too Ruby, tell Weiss I said hello", Blake requested.

"I will, byebye", Ruby bid.

Ruby stepped into the bathroom to find a small mountain of bubbles, two blue eyes staring at her from within.

"Have you seen my mistress around Mr Bubbles?", Ruby asked in a childlike voice.

Weiss huffed, blowing a cloud of bubbles at her, Ruby giggled before shrugging off her robe, red satin pooling around her feet, Weiss had acquired it after her first visit, preferring Ruby to wear as little clothing as possible, 'To better facilitate your pleasure my rose' Weiss had claimed, But Ruby knew better, Weiss enjoyed her warmth, the feel of her skin, the curves of her body. The ability to bare Ruby in her entirety with a pull of the sash and a flick of her fingers made Weiss feel incredibly powerful, and the ability to so easily arouse her mistress did the same for Ruby.

Weiss shrugged her cloak of bubbles as Ruby sunk into the water before her, crawling into her lap she drew her into a kiss, short, but loving, before wrapping her arms around her. Resting her forehead against Weiss' and closing her eyes, they sat there for a time, enjoying the soothing heat of the water, the only sounds being the slowly degrading bubbles, and their gentle breathing.

"What did she say?", Weiss whispered. Ruby opened her eyes to meet Weiss' worried gaze.

"She said she accepted this when she fell for me, and that she'd like to meet you when you're ready", Ruby pecked Weiss' nose, who smiled warmly.

"I'm free this weekend, we could get coffee together?", Weiss proposed.

"If your free this weekend, we should visit Pyrrha", Ruby pressed, Weiss looked sorrowful.

"I'm not ready yet Ruby, please", Weiss begged, Ruby nodded, pressing another kiss to her lips.

"Okay, not yet, not yet", Ruby soothed.

"Thankyou", Weiss sighed.

Ruby slid from Weiss' lap and moved behind her, laying against the side of the bath, she pulled Weiss back to lay on her chest. Slowly, Ruby moved to cup Weiss' breasts, gently squeezing and kneading them, drawing heavy breaths from Weiss. Her fingers teased and pulled on her nipples, coaxing whimpers of delight from the woman, whose hands moved toward her core.

"Ah! Weiss, leave that to me", Ruby ordered.

"Ruby please", Weiss pleaded.

"Soon, let me have you, let me serve you", Ruby begged.

Weiss let out a breathy moan as Ruby squeezed her breasts firmly, nodding in consent, and forcing her hands to rest upon Ruby's thighs. Ruby smiled as Weiss allowed her to take control of her pleasure, and after teasing her nipples a final time, began to gently rub her way downward, over her stomach to rest on Weiss' thighs, gently pulling them wider.

"I love you Weiss", Ruby planted a kiss on her neck.

"I love you too Rub-hah!", Weiss was cut off as her fingers slid to her center, running over Weiss' lips and spreading them open, allowing her fingers to run deeper, first one, drawing another moan from Weiss, then another, drawing a whine. Weiss' nails ran along Ruby's thighs as Ruby's fingers massaged her depths. Ruby removed her left hand to reach for a nearby shelf, upon which several glass toys lay on a towel, picking up a relatively modest curved one, bubbles forming its ribbed length.

"Weiss?", Ruby held the toy before her, Weiss gasped shakily before nodding. Ruby smiled, planting another kiss on Weiss' neck as she lowered the toy, letting the water warm it. She ran it over her folds, teasing her with penetration.

"Ruby, please!", Weiss whined.

Grinning, Ruby began to ease the toy into Weiss' sex, who's nails dug into Ruby's thighs as the toy sunk deeper, the bubbles massaging her inner walls, coaxing gentle whines from Weiss. When the full length was in Ruby allowed Weiss to adjust, planting kisses along her neck and jawline, sucking and biting a mark above her pulse point. Ruby slowly eased it out, and slid it back in.

Weiss' moan sent shivers down her spine, Ruby began fucking her in earnest, easing it out before thrusting, each impact drawing a sharp breathy whine, Ruby continued to attack Weiss' neck, kissing and nibbling, sending sparks down her spine. Weiss' breathing became deeper, slower, her nails digging in further, she began whimpering Ruby's name, tilting her head around, lidded eyes gazing into Ruby's own, they kissed, and Weiss came, biting Ruby's lip. Gasping, Weiss tensed around the toy, her body shaking with tremors until they passed, leaving her limp.

Weiss atop Ruby, perfectly calm, allowing the bliss to lull her into a stupor even as it faded away.

"Gods Ruby, I needed that, I needed you, thankyou", Weiss sighed.

"You've got a mean bite mistress", Ruby teased. Weiss turned to her in confusion, gasping as she saw Ruby's bleeding lip and wide grin.

"I'm so sorry!", Weiss apologized, pushing off Ruby and turning around on her knees.

"It's alright Weiss, kinda my fault, I really got you good", Ruby giggled.

"Blake is going to assume I'm some violent animal", Weiss fretted.

"You haven't seen her in bed yet", Ruby joked.

"Yet? Ruby Rose I have not even met this woman!", Weiss scolded.

"We could make a video for you?", Ruby proposed.

"Then we would have to make one for her, and I am not entirely sure how I feel about that just yet", Weiss huffed, burying her face in Ruby's neck to hide her blush.

"We'll get there Weiss…how are you feeling?", Ruby asked.

"Better, much better, amazing…I'll need to do some overtime to make up for my absence", Weiss sighed.

"Weiss, don't push yourself, please? You need to slow down a little, let your hair down, relax, recover, heal, okay?", Ruby pleaded.

"Alright, alright I'll try, I suppose a few things could wait…I know it's not healthy Ruby, I just, I want to try my best", Weiss explained.

"I know Weiss, but sometimes to be your best, you have to pace yourself, or you'll burn out, and I don't want to see you burn out, I care about you too much to let that happen", Ruby continued to plead.

They continued to lay there, the bubbles fading, warmth cooling, Weiss losing herself in the sheer comfort of the situation.

"You ready to get out?", Ruby asked.

Weiss pushed herself off Ruby's chest, kneeling between her legs, Weiss smirked.

"Let's go have some fun", Weiss suggested, a devilish smirk on her face.

Ruby grinned, leaning forward to kiss Weiss once more.
