Silence.

Weiss was terrified. Looking at Blake and Yang, she noticed that both where looking at Ruby. Weiss herself turned and looked, hoping for an answer.

"Weiss, I had no idea." Just the kind of answer Weiss had hoped not to get. In her mind, Ruby had already said no, run away and stopped talking to her. She realized that everyone in the room was looking at her, that she should respond.

"Ruby, I... I am also just discovering this. I've always admired you, but never thought of it as love until Yang and Blake showed me that love could be between more then just a man and a woman."

"Weiss, I need some time to think. I'm not saying no, I just... I just need some time, ok?" Although she heard herself agreeing, she felt deep inside that Ruby said no.

Weiss got up and walked into the bathroom. She felt herself crying, tears going down her face. She looked up when she heard someone else walk in. Quickly she tried to hide her tears, but that just made it worse. Looking up, she saw Yang standing there.

"Ruby means it when she says she didn't say no. For other people, it might be a way to say no, but Ruby really need some time, really needs to think about this."

Weiss looked at the golden-haired girl, and nodded. "Can you tell me?"

"Ruby has always had... problems getting close with people. I don't know why, but my guess is she lost someone very close to her when she was young. That she was so quick to become friends with you and Blake surprised me. I took me months before she would say anything in my presence."

Yang hugged Weiss, and said: "Until she says so, it isn't a no. Why don't you go outside for a bit. Clear your head."

Weiss nodded, and walked outside. It was a beautiful night. After walking around for a bit, she felt tired. Deciding she didn't want to go back inside, she climbed into a nearby tree and sat in it for a while. She was just about to get up and leave when she heard someone climbing into to tree she was in. Deciding to play along, she just said there, until two small hand came up from behind and covered her eyes.

"Guess who?" Weiss could recognize that voice out of thousands. "Hey Ruby."

Ruby spun her around. "Correct answer. And for that, you get a prize." Weiss looked at Ruby confused. A prize? And then Ruby kissed her.

The kiss was quick, strong, and not very good. But it was the best thing ever to happen to Weiss. After pulling apart, she looked Ruby in her eyes.

"So, made up your mind?"

Ruby nodded, looking serious: "Yes. On one condition. Don't abandon me."

Weiss grabbed the smaller girls hand. "Ruby, as long as I live, I will never, ever, abandon you. I promise."

Ruby pulled her into another kiss, that was quickly broken when she heard someone on the ground below.

"Weiss and Ruby, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G."

Looking down to see Yang and Blake standing there, Weiss felt herself go red, before she heard Ruby reply:

"Yang and Blake, sitting in a locker room, K-I-S-S-I-N-G."

Blake just shook her head, Yang replied: "Good point. You coming down or what?"

Quickly jumping down, Ruby and Weiss walked up to the other duo. Yang was the first to talk:

"So, everything is sorted out then?"

Weiss and Ruby both nodded, and Weiss said: "I think so."

"Good because it is really getting late. We should head to bed."

Short chapter is short. Oh well. As always feedback is nice. This isn't my greatest chapter, but I just had the urge to write something. Tried a little bit of a different style with this one, please tell me how it compares.
