Hey guys, I just went through and edited the hell out of this, so if you wouldn't mind reading through again (Or at least the argument at breakfast and the ending scene, as those are the bits I edited the most), I would really appreciate it. For some reason, This edit keeps un-indenting itself. I've gone through and redone it twice, and it's failed both times.

They were completely surrounded by Grimm. There were so many, Jaune could barely tell them apart. They were so swarmed, it could have been the middle of the night, or high noon and he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.

Jaune's mind raced to figure out how they were going to get out of this in one piece. The Grimm started moving forward, attacking. When they attacked on their own, JNPR was able to take them out without a problem, but he had a feeling this wouldn't last much longer. He needed a plan...

It came to him.

"Nora, Ren stay in the middle. Pyrrha and I will guard you. Change to your ranged weapons. Pyrrha, protect them." They all nodded and quickly got into position. Just in time, as the Grimm began their assault. The plan seemed to work, and Jaune began to relax, but something went wrong. He became suddenly aware of Grimm separating him from Nora, Pyrrha and Ren.

Within moments, he was on his own. Guarding against all sides was difficult, barely possible, but he kept fighting with all he had to get back to the group.

He heard Pyrrha shriek in agony, then Ren, followed by Nora screaming his name.

Then there was silence.

He slashed and stabbed and slammed against the Grimm as hard as he could. His foot hit something squishy and warm.

The Grimm disappeared from the clearing, leaving it empty, save the dead bodies of his former teammates. Under his foot was Pyrrha's arm. The rest of her was lying lifeless in front of Ren, in a desperate final attempt to shield him and Nora.

He collapsed to his knees, Weeping. Tears ran down his face.

"Jaune!"

He woke up, startled. Pyrrha hugged him. "You're fine. We're all still here" She said in his ear.

"What just..." He trailed off, his heart still beating so hard that Nora could probably feel it from across the room.

"You were having a nightmare" she explained. "You must have woken the whole school." Ren sat, disgruntled, next to Nora. He was probably upset that she had slept with him again. Probably moreso that Jaune had disturbed him from his slumber.

"Oh... Sorry guys. It was... really, really intense" He said. Pyrrha raised an eyebrow at him.

"Not that kind of intense! Come on guys let's go to breakfast" He said, quickly changing the subject. They all nodded and he went into the bathroom to change first.

Nora stripped down where she stood.

"NORA!"

Having all changed into their clothes, Team JNPR went out of the dorm hall, and walked in to the cafeteria. Team RWBY was already there, so JNPR just sat across from them.

"Hey guys." Jaune yawned as his team sat down around him. He was painfully aware of Pyrrha sitting across from Blake.

The Teams very quickly engaged in conversation. Nora, Yang and Pyrrha seemed to be arguing about who's weapon was the bes. Blake and Ren just sat there quietly. They looked kind of like baby sitters being amused by the children they were sitting

"Hey Jaune, you alright? You look upset." Ruby asked, seeing his poorly hidden distress.

"Yeah, I'm just tired" He lied, and rested his head on the table.

"You're not a good liar, Jaune. What's wrong? You can tell me." she said, now looking mad as well as concerned.

"Can we talk about this later? I'm not in the mood."

"Fine. Don't talk to me. I see how it is. Humph!" She joked and joined her sisters conversation about big guns. Jaune sighed and joined in as well, despite sticking entirely to his precious Sword and Board.

Yang was in the middle of defending her weapons. "You can't beat these babies" she said, expanding Ember Celica into it's full form "I mean come on. Shotgun Gauntlets?"

Ruby coughed and pulled out Crescent Rose, expanding it all the way and setting on the table, knocking over a couple drinks and throwing Blake's salad through the air.

"Hey!" Pyrrha and Blake exclaimed simultaneously

"Sorry!" She said quickly and started gathering Blake's salad back into her bowl. Blake sighed humorously

"Crescent Rose is totally the coolest weapon here though. People don't know if it's a scythe, or a rifle, a scythle maybe" She laughed at her own joke

Nora joined in the fun, and drew Magnhild. "We all know that my hammer/grenade launcher is king here" She laughed evilly. "It's like Yang's gauntlets, but bigger and with a handle!" Ren smiled.

Suddenly, Myrtenaster impaled the milk that Ruby had been drinking. "Hey! Give that back!"

"Power and size has absolutely nothing to do with it! It's all in how you use it." Yang burst out laughing. "Why so defensive, Weiss?" Blake chuckled

"I don't get it" Ruby butted in, and Yang condescendingly patted her on the head. "I'll tell you when you're older, sweety"

"I hate it when you do that" Ruby mumbled.

"ANYWAY" Weiss cut in again. "Myrtenaster clearly wins. no fancy transforming, but if you know how to use it, you can poke it through anything."

"You have to be doing that on purpose!" Yang shouted through her hysterical laughter

"But the transformation is what's so important about our weapons" Blake cut in, finally breaking her silence "For example" She drew gambol Shroud "Gambol Shroud can do everything Myrtenaster can - if you discount Dust abilities - in it's sword form, but then it still has it's transformed forms, so you can hit somebody at further range"

Pyrrha nodded in silent agreement.

Ruby snorted. "I still think Crescent Rose wins. I'm pretty sure he has a soul"

Jaune chuckled, and the bell rang, dismissing them to class

Jaune sat down, next to Weiss, as usual. Finally. he had some time alone with his thoughts. Funny He thought to himself The only time I get alone is when I'm crammed in to a room full of other people.

He was thankful for the chance to blend into the background and just think about stuff, God knows he has enough on his mind.

How could I have not seen it? He mentally screamed at himself. She is so in to Blake! There's no questioning it! Jaune miserably set his head on the table. I was an idiot to think she'd be in to me in the first place. She's so perfect, and I'm so... not.

A piece of Paper slid under his arm.

If you're gonna be so obviously miserable, you may as well come out with it. What's wrong?

Jaune looked up at Weiss, who was obviously trying insanely hard not to look sympathetic. She was failing miserably. He sighed and took the paper. reaching for his pencil, he found an empty pocket. Damn it

"Can I borrow a pencil, Weiss?" he whispered to her. She sighed condescendingly and pulled out a caligraphy pen

"This will do, right?" she whispered

"Miss Schnee and Mr Arc, do you have something you'd like to share with the class?" Professor Port interrupted himself to call them out. "Or should I call you Mr and Mrs Arc?" He laughed at his own classic teacher joke.

"Wha- NO! THAT'S NOT-" Jaune clamped his hand over Weiss's mouth.

"No, professor. We were just discussing how... er... Awesome... you are" he tried

"Uh huh" He mumbled and went back to the story about how he killed ten nevermores without his blunderbaxe

Jaune looked down at his paper, and wrote, in horrendous caligraphy

I think I'm in love with Pyrrha. his ears turning red, he slipped her the note. a few seconds passed and it returned to him.

Of course you are, you idiot. Everyone can see it! So what's your problem?

She likes someone else He replied, careful to not let his best friends secret out.

The conversation continued like this, for the rest of class. Weiss didn't offer him any real help, and just suggested that he find someone else. This was the best course of action, but easier said than done. Finally, right before the bell rang, he got one last note from her.

I guess you have to decide. Would you risk your friendship to be with her?

"No!" He said, surprised that she would ask such a thing.

"For dusts sake boy please keep it down back there!" Port yelled at him "Do you want to get detent-" The bell rang, and Jaune rushed out of class before his scariest professor could make him stay after class.

After all of their classes were over, Nora suggested they all go out for pancakes. She always went out for pancakes after classes. Ren sighed. "I guess I'll see you guys later" and Nora dragged him out the door happily

Now it was just Jaune and Pyrrha. Oh joy.

"So you and Weiss, huh? I never thought I'd see the day." She smiled

"Me and- No! I've been over Weiss since she taught me what a dictionary tastes like!" He defended himself

"To be fair, you did sneak into her room in the middle of the night and start loudly playing a love song in that off-key guitar of yours."

"Hey, I was drunk on love."

"Not a thing, Jaune. Not a thing." she giggled

That giggle is so cute Jaune thought to himself, and immediately drove it from his head. "So any update between you and Blake?" He asked her, hoping she would say no

"Yeah, actually!" She said happily. She was giddy, like ruby gets when she gets to show off Crescent Rose. "I think I'm making headway."

Damn it "That's good. I hope you guys do get together. What would I call you together? Nikadonna? Purrha?"

"What? What are you doing? Are you combining our names?" Pyrrha was clearly confused by this.

Team RWBY walked by, "Hey Pyrrha, Hey Jaune" Ruby said as they walked by.

Jaune noticed Pyrrha's eyes were lower than usual, following team RWBY. No way...

"Pyrrha are you staring at Blake's ass?" he asked quietly, trying to contain his laughter

"What?! No! I wouldn't!" Pyrrha defended herself, once again turning as red as her hair
