"No I don't wanna go!" Ruby pouted as she sat down on the couch and crossed her arms. Weiss just glared at her infuriating girlfriend.

"I don't care if you want to go or not, you're going and that's final" she finished, Ruby just looked her partner in the eye.

"Nope" was her one word response. "She's such a child sometimes!" Weiss fumed as she grabbed the sitting girls arm and tried pulling her out of the chair as Ruby fought back, digging her heels in.

"No I don't wanna go!" Ruby kept repeating as she resisted getting up.

"Ruby you are going to the dentist and that's final" yes Ruby was putting up such a resistance to going to the dentist. It wasn't that she was afraid of the dentist she just hated the scraping they had to do when they cleaned her teeth, plus since Yang had divulged how much sugar Ruby ate the dentist always was very stern in telling her to eat less sugar, lest her teeth fill with cavities.

Weiss finally succeeded in getting her stubborn love standing, though Ruby immediately rooted herself to the spot refusing to move.

"If you want me to go you're going to have to drag me" Ruby said, promising her continued resistance to any attempt at moving her. Weiss frowned her brow in thought "This is futile, I'll never get her there if I have to fight her the entire way" she contemplatedtrying to think how she could win Ruby over, when an idea struck her

"Alright Ruby let's make a deal" Weiss began stopping to allow Ruby time to show whether or not she would listen.

"I'm listening"

"You go to the dentist, without a fight and in return I'll give you a surprise treat" Ruby perked up at this.

"What kind of surprise?" she asked, her body language showing her growing complacent.

"Well it wouldn't be a surprise if I told you, you dunce but I will say it involves sweets." Weiss chuckled, relieved that she was winning Ruby over. Ruby thought for a second, weighing the pros and cons of this arrangement before a smile broke out on her face and she gave Weiss a big hug.

"Alright deal." Weiss just buried her face in Ruby's shoulder while squeezing back. "What a relief I was afraid she would say no"

"So what time is my appointment?" Ruby asked trying to conceal her displeasure.

"In one hour" Weiss said giving Ruby a kiss on the cheek "and I'm glad you are complying with me."

"Well I'm just doing it for this surprise treat you have for me" Ruby said with a laugh, giving Weiss a return kiss on the forehead before she was pushed away.

"You dolt" was Weiss answer, though at this point in their relationship this was less an insult and more Weiss' way of showing that while she loved Ruby, that the other girl could exasperate her.

"Alright well might as well get going, this way we can take our time and enjoy the day" Ruby said taking Weiss' arm in her own and pulling the other girl out of the house.

They lazily meandered their way to the dentist office enjoying the bright warm summer day and along the way Weiss thought about the surprise she was planning for Ruby. They reached the office, a low single story building that stretched back it was a red brick exterior. They entered the front lobby, there was a low coffee table with magazines surrounded by a half-dozen chairs in the waiting room, which was set off to the side for those who were waiting. The receptionist, a young woman in her 30's greeted them warmly.

"Hi so which one of you have an appointment today?"

"That would be me, should be under the name Ruby Rose" the receptionist checked her computer looking for the name.

"Ah yes Ms. Rose looks like you're due for a check-up and teeth cleaning. If you'll just sign your name here and have a seat Doctor Kohler will be with you shortly" Ruby signed her name and then she and Weiss each took a seat in the waiting area.

Ruby looked nervous, she wasn't able to stop fidgeting constantly tapping her fingers against her arms against the armrest or shaking her leg. This did not please Weiss who was reading a business magazine which she kept having her attention torn away from by the constant movement of Ruby. Finally Weiss was too irritated to continue reading and setting the magazine down turned an irritated look at the jittery girl.

"Would you relax Ruby?"

"Sorry Weiss I just don't like the dentist" Weiss softened at this and pulled Ruby closer so the other girl could rest her head on the white-haired girls shoulder.

"Ruby I promise it will be fine just try and relax, for me?" Ruby smiled at this and visibly calmed down her posture relaxing.

"Alright for you" she said bringing a smile to Weiss' face.

"Ruby Rose?" a lean man with a clean-shaven face in his early 40's Doctor Kohler, asked with a smile on his face. Ruby looked at the dentist and stood up, Weiss took her hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze

"Don't worry you'll be fine and I'll be right out here if you need me" she said giving a comforting smile that helped relax Ruby further. The red-haired girl didn't say anything, merely nodding her head while putting on one of her usual smiles.

"Alright if you'll follow me Ms. Rose we'll start with the cleaning." Dr. Kohler said leading the way into the back area where the equipment was kept, it was separated from the lobby and waiting area by a set of double-doors. After Ruby had left the waiting area Weiss returned to her magazine and patiently waited "Hopefully I helped calmed her down" she thought her attention being diverted from the article she was reading, after a few minutes though she returned to the article knowing there was nothing she could do at the moment.

About 40 minutes passed before Weiss heard the familiar bouncing footsteps of her Ruby returning

"All done" she happily announced flashing a much whiter than previous smile, she was followed by a drained looking Dr. Kohler

"Alright Ms. Rose you have no cavities, but remember what I've said about how much sugar you eat and I'll see you in 6 months" he said before turning to Weiss "and you Ms.…"

"Schnee" she filled in for him

"Yes Ms. Schnee could I have a word with you?" Weiss looked confused but agreed

"Of course, Ruby will you wait outside for me?"

"Sure thing sweetheart, don't take too long though remember you still owe me a surprise!" Ruby chirped cheerily as she walked outside. After she left Dr. Kohler sighed.

"I've always thought she was a sulky girl, barely talking and always seeming upset whenever she was in for a checkup. But today she was a ball of energy, I had to keep reminding her not to talk. I don't know what you've done but you have made a drastic improvement in that girl" Weiss smiled hearing that Ruby had been fine.

"Well she's normally like that but she doesn't particularly like the dentist's office, I just helped her relax" Weiss informed the doctor who nodded.

"Well whatever the reason next time she has a check-up it should be much easier, so thank you and please try and control how much sugar that girl eats." he said almost pleading with the blue-eyed girl.

"Of course" Weiss lied as she averted her eyes "Well I must go, Ruby is waiting for me"

"Of course have a good day" Dr. Kohler said, turning to go to his office in the back room, leaving Weiss to exit through the front door.

As Weiss stepped out into the warm rays of the sun she looked around for Ruby, only to find the girl laying in the grass staring into the sky. Weiss walked up to the smiling girl,

"What are you doing you dunce?" she asked making Ruby look at her

"I was just staring at the clouds, tell me do you think that cloud looks like a dog?" she asked nonchalantly to which Weiss only held out her hand

I don't know, but are you ready to go?"

"You bet" Ruby cheered as she took Weiss' hand and pulled herself up "I can't wait to see what the surprise is" she said practically jumping from excitement.

"Well then follow me" Weiss said leading the way through the streets of Vale.

After walking several blocks into the commercial district Weiss and an awed Ruby stood in front of a newly open store "Vytal Sweets"

"They have all kinds of sugary treats you can ruin your newly cleaned teeth with" Weiss informed a still open-mouthed Ruby who was almost salivating from the thought of the treats that lay inside that building. Weiss was quite frankly amazed that Ruby did not have a single cavity with her affinity for sugar, especially cookies.

" Weiss. You. Are. Amazing." Ruby said slowly, wrapping her mind around the thought of the delicious treasures that lay beyond the front door.

"Why thank you Ruby, now let's head inside" Weiss answered with a smile, happy that she had chosen a perfect place to take Ruby.

They entered the store, it had tables set up around the spacious room with various amounts of seating. The counter was right next to a large glass display showing off many of the sweet delights that they offered. The store was not very busy so Ruby and Weiss were in a short line, Ruby was drooling over the display while Weiss took note of the young man working the cashier. He was in his mid 20's with sandy brown hair and green eyes set in a lean face, his most distinguishing feature though were the pair of dog ears that sat atop his head, a feature which Weiss eyed with hesitancy once she took notice of them. When they reached the front of the line Ruby did not wait a moment and ordered having given much thought to what she wanted to ruin her teeth with.

"Hi I'd like the chocolate brownie sundae please" the young Faunus smiled and put her order in then turned to a nervous Weiss.

"Of course and how about you miss?" he asked, as his eyes made contact with Weiss' she turned her eyes down much to Ruby surprise, Weiss never avoided making eye contact it was rude and went against her upbringing and mumbled her order.

"Excuse me I didn't hear you, could you repeat that?" the dog Faunus asked even with his heightened hearing he still didn't catch what the heiress had said.

"I said I'd like a slice of the vanilla cake" she said her voice quiet.

"Coming right up" he said as he gave them their total with Weiss cautiously handing the money over to pay for the treats.

They took seats at a table in the corner as they waited for their order.

"Weiss, can I ask what's wrong?" Ruby inquired breaking the silence.

"What would give you the impression that something is wrong?" Weiss said curtly, hoping to dodge the question, though she should have known her girlfriend better.

"Well you seemed really nervous at the counter and when you were handing the cashier the money you looked like you were afraid to touch him." Ruby said concern coloring her voice. Weiss sighed and remained quiet for a long moment, staring out the window before answering.

"It's just that…..well...I'm nervous around Faunus" she said her voice dropping to a whisper, hating to admit weakness or fault. Ruby looked surprised at this, but it started making sense when she thought back, Weiss did tense up on the few occasions when she talked or interacted with Faunus.

"Why?" Ruby asked, wanting to help however she could.

"It's just I already spent so little time socializing with others growing up that I'm uncomfortable with most people to begin with and the animal qualities of Faunus are only more….off-putting." Ruby realized Weiss was not a bigot who hated the Faunus for what they couldn't control, she merely was a person who had spent so little time with others that she was unsure of herself around the Faunus.

"It's alright sweetheart, I'll help you and it will get better I promise" Ruby said kindly, laying her hand over Weiss'.

"Thank you Ruby I really am a better person because of you"

"So am I Weiss, I don't know what I would do without you" they remained in a happy silence, just looking into each other's eyes and enjoying the presence of the other when their number was called and Ruby went up to grab their food.

She returned with two plates and set each one in front of the correct person before she dove into hers, taking huge shoveling bites while Weiss took more elegant ones befitting her upbringing. After eating for a moment Ruby tried speaking with a mouthful of her chocolate dessert,

"Ruby what have I told you about talking with your mouth full?" Weiss scolded making Ruby swallow and sigh like she always did when being scolded for talking with a full mouth.

"I said your dessert looks delicious" At this comment Weiss took a forkful of her cake and held it towards Ruby.

"Would you like a bite?"

"Of course!" Ruby said happily as she leaned in and ate the bite and made sure to chew and swallow this time before speaking "That is good. Would you like to try some of mine?"

"Yes please

"Alright then close your eyes" Ruby said, getting a portion of the dessert on her fork. Making sure Weiss had shut her eyes, Ruby popped the dessert in her mouth and leaned forward giving Weiss a kiss and pushing the brownie sundae in with her tongue before she started wrestling tongues with Weiss. Pulling away with a grin Ruby looked at the surprised look on Weiss, accentuated by the burning scarlet blush coloring her features. After chewing her food and swallowing Weiss looked at Ruby.

"That...certainly was….good" she mumbled much to the amusement of Ruby.

"I know I enjoyed it as well" Ruby said with a wink causing Weiss to look away.

"Shut up you dolt"

After they finished their food, Weiss embarrassed and Ruby happy as always they left and went back to Ruby's house. As they opened the door they heard Yang and Blake talking

"Hey Yang we're home"

"Oh hey Ruby where were you guys?"

"Weiss and I went to my dentist appointment and then went out for some food."

"Sounds like a good day" Blake chimed in

"It was" Weiss answered "Every day with Ruby is a good day" she thought as her and Ruby went and sat in the living room to watch TV while Blake and Yang remained in the kitchen, talking about something.
