Weiss was nervous. She had not been this nervous in a long while, and the cause of her discomfort was currently standing behind her.

"What are you doing?" Ruby whispered in her ear as she stood close behind Weiss. Very close. Weiss could feel Ruby pressing herself close against her back "She's so close, I can feel her… NO! Weiss you cannot think such lewd thoughts!" She shouted to herself in her head as she scooted forward slightly to try and put a little distance between herself and Ruby. Weiss had been washing the dishes from her and Ruby's lunch when the other girl had come up behind her without any warning. Ruby just stepped forward to close the distance and wrapped her arms around Weiss' waist.

"You know, Yang and Blake aren't here" she whispered, her lips ever so gently brushing against Weiss' ear causing a shiver to go up the white girl's spine. It was true, they were at Weiss' house after they had been "persuaded" out of Ruby's house by Yang, who had hinted at what she had planned with Blake and why they wouldn't want to be there.

"Ruby…" Weiss started to protest, but Ruby kept going her hands slowly traveling up Weiss' sides

"We have the house to ourselves," the implications of her statement were not lost on Weiss whose resolve was steadily crumbling.

"Ru…Ruby" she weakly said as she tried pulling out of Ruby's grasp, the other girl just gently but insistently holding onto Weiss' slim form.

"We could… could… you know..." Ruby said her voice faltering as she sought the words to describe her intentions. This child-like hesitation gave Weiss all the time she needed to pull away from Ruby and muster up her resolve.

"Ruby we will do nothing so vulgar," she said sternly, Ruby went from breaking Weiss' will to pouting like a small child in such short amount of time.

"Bu...but Weiss" she started to whine before a look from the snowy-haired girl silenced her and she gave Weiss a peck on the cheek before she left to go sit in Weiss' living room and watch TV while she waited for the other girl to finish the dishes.

When she was out of sight Weiss let out a sigh, "If she hadn't stumbled over her words there is no way I could have resisted."

It had been about a week since Ruby had gotten her new jacket and Weiss her hairpin. Things had gone back to normal. Weiss had promptly explained to Yang why she had snapped at Ruby after the two had gone back into the house to make cookies. When she had entered the house she was pushed against the wall by an angry blonde demanding answers. After she had explained herself Yang had let the smaller woman go and had laughed at the cause of their fight. Things had gone back to normal except for one thing. Ruby had gotten more… gotten more "handsy" as Yang would put it. She would press herself closer to Weiss, trail her hands up the pale girl's legs or up her chest all while whispering in her ear, close enough that Weiss could feel Ruby's breath tickling her. Weiss was surprised by Ruby's sudden interest in such activities and had resisted Ruby, but her resolve had grown weaker each time Ruby had started another attempt. She was only being saved by Ruby's childish nature breaking through her seduction act.

It wasn't that Weiss didn't find Ruby attractive in that way, but she was nervous to make that leap. So Weiss stood in the kitchen still finishing the dishes as Ruby sat in the living room thinking, "Damn I messed up again." Ruby had been fairly surprised herself when she had started becoming bolder with Weiss. It had started after Weiss had gotten her the new jacket and it had been cemented after she had made up with Weiss and given her the hairpin, which Weiss wore, everyday along with her rose pendant. Ruby had always thought that Weiss was incredibly beautiful, but ever since a few days ago she had been paying more attention to the other girl and had been taken by the urge to go that next step with Weiss.

The problem with this was Ruby was still incredibly innocent and childish, so all of her attempts to convince Weiss had failed. But as Ruby sat on Weiss' couch watching TV and the other girl sat down next to her she had an epiphany. "Why didn't I think of this before!" she chided herself. She had the greatest resource to help her woo Weiss, and it had been staring her in the face for days. She would just have to be careful how she approached this person.

Yang was sitting on the couch still dressed as if she had just gotten up, which she had. It was past noon and Yang had just gotten out of bed to grab some food and sit in the living room to watch some TV. She was sitting in there wearing a tank top and short shorts. Yang wasn't one for modesty. As she sat on the couch she heard the front door open

"Ruby is that you?" Yang shouted.

"Yeah, I'm back," Ruby replied, heading over to the living room she entered and when she saw Yang in her immodesty she just rolled her eyes. This was not unusual, but it still made Ruby groan. "What if I was with Weiss?" she asked, always needling her older sister whenever she caught her like this. Yang just smiled.

"Then she would be here with you," Yang replied with a mischievous grin, knowing that the sight of Yang in her state of undress would fluster and upset the prim and proper girl. Ruby just groaned, "So where were you, sis?"

"Oh, I was over at Weiss'," Ruby answered as she plopped down on the couch next to her sister.

"Do I need to hurt the princess?" Yang asked, only partially joking.

"No Yang," Ruby said with a nervous chuckle, partly because that was the reason she was going to Yang for advice. "Though I did have a favor to ask of you," she began. Yang just raised her eyebrow.

"What would that be?"

"Well… you… see… I'm kinda… sorta… trying to impress Weiss," Ruby rushed the final part out, hoping that Yang wouldn't inquire into why Ruby wanted to do this. Yang thought about it for a moment before she broke out into a big grin.

"Of course I can help my baby sister put the moves on her girlfriend," she said with a laugh, completely joking about that fact.

Ruby just laughed along "Yeah if only you knew how right you were sis."

"So what exactly do you need my help with?" Yang asked after she had stopped laughing.

"Well, I can't think of what I could do to impress Weiss." Ruby confessed after a pause. Yang thought for a while just sitting in silence thinking on how she could help her sister. Suddenly she smashed her fist into her palm and her face lit up.

"Ooh, ooh, I know. FANCY DINNER!" she exclaimed, startling Ruby who was not prepared for this.

"Yang I've already done that, remember?" Ruby questioned, "That was the night we kissed and you took those photos that I still haven't found yet?" Yang looked slightly crestfallen at this reminder before she chuckled.

"Oh yeah… I remember that night. That was a good night for me as well," she said with a sly grin.

"EWWWWW!" Ruby yelled, the meaning not lost on her. "Can we get back to helping me and not talking about your private time with Blake?"

"Sure, sis. Hmmmmmmm. How about taking her dancing?" Yang asked Ruby, the red-haired girl looked thoughtful at this suggestion. After some thought a smile grew on her face and her silver eyes got a little brighter.

"That is a great idea… except I don't know how to dance. I mean I kind of know how, but nothing fancy that Weiss would like."

"Don't worry Ruby, I can teach you how to dance!" Yang said picking her sister up in a hug, crushing the smaller girl

"Yang… you're… killing… me," Ruby squeaked out as she felt her breath forced out as Yang hugged her.

"Alright, alright," Yang said putting down a gasping Ruby, "so when do you want to start lessons?"

"How about tonight?"

"Oooooh, can't tonight. Me and Blake have a date and I'm hoping to…"

"EWWWWW!" Ruby cut off her older sister, "Alright, I don't need to know anymore. Let's just start tomorrow."

"Sounds good Rubes," Yang said as she looked at the time. "Oh, I have a job interview to go to," she said. Yang had plans to get a job before school started.

"Alright, good luck Yang," Ruby said as she took Yang's place on the couch, putting on a new TV channel as she relaxed happy that her plan was going well.

Weiss was walking home. She went on walks around this time when she wasn't with Ruby so she could just enjoy the night. Weiss was dressed nicely as she usually was. She believed in always looking put together. She was wearing her white boots that added a few inches to her height, because despite her seniority she was still just barely taller than her girlfriend and while she would never admit it this fact bugged her. She also was wearing a pair of nice blue jeans with a white blouse, her rose pendant swung with each step from its spot around her neck, and finally her hair was done up and held together by the hairpin Ruby had gotten her. Touching the pendant with her left hand Weiss smiled. "Ruby is such a sweet girl," she thought fondly as she walked home, not sure of what she would do for dinner.

Weiss was a little curious as when she drew near to her home she saw that the lights in her house were on. "I thought I turned off the lights before I left..." Weiss just shrugged it off assuming she must have only thought about turning off the lights but had not actually done so. Stepping up to the door Weiss searched around her pocket for the key to her front door, knowing that she had locked the door. Finally finding the key Weiss unlocked the door and stepped inside not really paying attention. When she entered the house and closed the door she felt her breath get taken away.

Ruby was standing in front of her waiting by the entrance to Weiss' kitchen. She was wearing black flats— she knew about Weiss' feelings about their heights so she was wearing shoes that made Weiss taller than her. She had on black dress pants with red stripes and a red button up shirt. To top it off Ruby was holding a white rose in her hands and had a big smile on, probably at the open-mouthed expression on Weiss' face.

"Wha… what… what is this," Weiss managed to fumble as she looked at her girlfriend.

"This is me impressing you," Ruby said smoothly as she pressed the white rose into Weiss' hands. Weiss held the flower to her face and smelled it. It was sweet.

"Ruby…" Weiss was about to protest at this effort when she felt Ruby's soft lips pressed against hers.

"Follow me, my princess," Ruby said when she pulled away, taking Weiss' hand in hers. She led the way into the kitchen and through there to the dining room that Weiss had. She was a Schnee, so the house was nice even if it was not as extravagant as her parents'. As they entered the dining room Weiss felt the open-mouthed expression return. The dining room table had a white table cloth and sitting atop it were two places set, one at the head of the table and one on the right hand side of the head. The lights were off and the room was only illuminated by the candles Ruby had lit.

"Ruby…" Weiss numbly said as she was led to the head of the table. Ruby pulled her seat out for her and once she had sat down pushed the seat back in.

"Now just wait one moment while I get the food," the red-haired girl said as she left without waiting for a reply.

Weiss just looked around at everything still taking it all in, "I can't believe she did all of this." Before she could think anymore Ruby returned carrying two dishes, setting them down. Weiss once again marveled at the lengths Ruby had gone to. The dinner was a pan-fried top sirloin steak and onions with roasted mixed vegetables for a side.

"Ruby this is looks amazing" Weiss said as Ruby sat down at her place

"I'm glad you think so. Hopefully it tastes as good as it looks." They started eating and immediately Weiss thought about how delicious the entire dinner was, the steak was well done and the vegetables were roasted to perfection.

"Ruby, this tastes fantastic."

"Thank you, I am glad you enjoy it, Princess," Ruby said with a big smile on her face.

"What have I told you about calling me that?" Weiss said, though she was still too happy to be annoyed. "I really am lucky to have her."

"I know, but I also don't care," she said innocently making Weiss smile and sigh.

"You dolt," was all she said as they continued eating in a happy silence, Weiss still astounded by this surprise and Ruby was still happy by the reaction she had gotten from Weiss. But Ruby knew that there was still more to come.

After they had finished Weiss gently dabbed at the corners of her mouth with her napkin "Well Ruby this was lovely…" she was cut off before she could finish.

"Oh there is still more," Ruby said cryptically as she took Weiss' hand again and practically dragged the girl to the living room. The lights were turned down low and Weiss saw Ruby's phone hooked up to a speaker. The most noticeable thing was that the couch and other furnishings had been pushed to the side to make room in the center of the room. "Would you honor me with a dance, my lady?" Ruby asked with a dramatic flourish. Weiss was stunned and just mumbled a yes. She gave Ruby her hand, and she was surprised when she was pulled close to the other girl. Ruby pressed a button on the phone and a slow classical song started playing through the speakers.

The music was soft, mostly string instruments, though they were backed up by some wind instruments. It was clear, and Weiss thought it was beautiful. They danced a slow dance close together. Ruby led, but her movements while good were not as graceful as Weiss who had learned to dance at a young age. Ruby leaned her face close to Weiss' and whispered as they dance

"How am I doing?" Weiss smiled at this.

"You could be doing better," Ruby's smile turned down slightly before she heard Weiss next statement, "But you are doing great." They didn't speak after that, losing themselves in the music as it filled the room. They let the rhythm take over as they just let the music flow through them. Weiss rested her head on Ruby's shoulder as they danced close together. Ruby twirled Weiss around as the music came to an end before pulling the white-haired dancer close against her, their face mere inches from each other. The room went quiet as the music ended, neither girl speaking as they just breathed, their faces frozen in their positions close together neither one ready to make the first move.

Then they kissed, but it was more frantic than any other of their kisses. They mashed their lips together trying to bring the other as close as possible. As they kissed they walked to Weiss' bedroom, only breaking the seal of their lips for air. They crashed into the room still with their lips locked together as they fell on the bed; Ruby was on top of Weiss. They broke their kiss to stare into each other's eyes; both were filled with love and lust.

"Weiss?" Ruby asked, not wanting to go any further without asking Weiss first. Weiss' only response was to put her arm around Ruby's neck to drag the other girl down into another kiss. Ruby took that as an affirmative and they started undressing each other. Their hands were fumbling and awkward, but neither cared because they were too lost in each other. They undressed and their hands roamed each other's bodies, their movements unsure and groping, but both enjoyed themselves regardless, through the haze of pleasure they both had the same thought: "I love her."

After they had finished they wrapped themselves in the blanket, their bodies entwined together and both of them feeling happy with themselves. Ruby was the first to speak.

"Weiss that was amazing," she said with an endearing smile on her face. Weiss looked at her and gave the younger girl a soft kiss.

"Yes, it was."

"Weiss, can I tell you something?" Ruby wondered as she rested her head on Weiss' shoulder, practically burying her face in Weiss' messy curtain of white hair.

"Of course you can."

"I love you Weiss," Ruby said with her most innocent smile on, causing Weiss' heart to melt.

"I love you, too, Ruby," she said as she tilted Ruby's head up to give her a chaste kiss. Then they were interrupted when they heard the door crash open.

"Who could that be?" Weiss asked before her blood ran cold at the voice that followed the door.

"RUBY, WHERE ARE YOU!" Yang yelled as she walked through the house looking for her baby sister, unaware of her current position.

"Oh shit," Ruby and Weiss exclaimed at the exact same moment as the bedroom door opened with Yang standing there with a smile on her face and her eyes closed.

"Hey, Ruby how did the dancing…" Her voice trailed off as she opened her eyes and took in the sight of the clothes strewn about the room and her sister underneath a blanket with Weiss, with both of them clearly not dressed. If Weiss could describe the look in Yang's eyes she would say that they seemed to turn crimson in anger

"WHAT. THE. FUCK!" She screamed, Ruby and Weiss both had the same thought looking at the enraged blonde. "This is not going to end well."
