Weiss sat staring at her phone, waiting for the small device to ring. It was Sunday. Two days had passed since the boardwalk and all Weiss could do was think about the fun she had being with Ruby.

"Why do I keep thinking about her?" She had spent Saturday in a daze, unsure of what to do with herself after the previous night. She had gone to bed early and awoken early today. This had led to the current situation of Weiss sitting at the kitchen table just waiting. "What if she doesn't want to hang out with me again?" Weiss feared, doubt gnawing at her "What if she only acted like my friend?" Weiss thought as she felt familiar feelings welling up in her: sadness and loneliness. These emotions had followed her around her entire life. They had loosened their grip on Weiss when she had met Blake, but the night she spent with the energetic Ruby had marked the first time those feelings had completely evaporated. "Why does she make me so happy?" Weiss wondered as her gaze never once strayed from the phone on the table. It was then that the phone suddenly vibrated to life indicating to the startled girl that she had received a text.

Looking at her phone, Weiss saw she didn't recognize the number and felt a sense of hope which only grew into happiness as she read the text, "Hey best friend, it's me Ruby! Do you want to hang out?" Weiss reread the message several times; feeling more elated each time.

"Yes where do you want to meet?" She sat, waiting for the vibration that brought a message from Ruby. She did not wait long as almost immediately after she had sent the text her phone vibrated. Weiss did not think on the implications of such a fast response when she was looking at the text.

"Meet me at Vale Park"

Weiss had barely finished reading the text before she set about getting dressed for her adventure with Ruby. After only a few minutes Weiss was out the door of her house wearing an ice blue sundress and matching low-heel boots, her hair in its usual asymmetrical ponytail. Weiss walked towards the park enjoying the warm summer weather, excited to see Ruby again. "Why am I so happy to see that hyperactive dolt again?" The reason Weiss liked Ruby so much was that the red-girl was so friendly and carefree. She was the opposite of Weiss and more importantly, in the short time she had known her, Ruby had made Weiss feel cared for and loved.

As Weiss completed the short walk to the park she took no time in finding her friend as the girl was a ball of energy who immediately ran up to her bemused friend so as to make her presence known. She was wearing black boots and jeans along with the same red jacket with a backpack slung over her shoulder.

"Hey Weiss! How are you doing? Did you miss me? Wow you look pretty…." Ruby would have started another deluge of words if she was not stopped by Weiss' pale hand covering her mouth. The owner of the hand was blushing at Ruby's comment and at the contact she had initiated

"Hello Ruby, I am doing well. Thank you for the compliment and….yes I missed you." Weiss mumbled the last part, feeling embarrassed. Ruby did not share this feeling, however, and pulled the other girl into a hug.

"Awww the princess missed me!" Ruby chirped in happiness. Weiss, surprised by this, struggled to push the stronger girl away.

"Get off me you dolt." She said, though her words lacked the edge associated with her anger.

Ruby finally released her hold and just smiled at her pale friend.

"So why did we come to the park?" Weiss inquired after Ruby did not offer any info on the plans she had for the day.

"It's a surprise," was her response. Weiss arched an eyebrow at the answer

"Can you just tell me?"

Ruby thought for a moment before answering. "Nope!"

Weiss signed at this answer. "Can I at least get a hint?"

"Nope!" Ruby answered in a whimsical tone. "Weiss just enjoy the surprise. Don't you trust your best friend?" Ruby asked.

Weiss looked into her friend's silver eyes and thought, "Do I trust her? I barely know her, yet I feel safe with her." As Weiss pondered the matter, she came up with an answer.

"Yes I trust you Ruby. Now let's go see the surprise." she said giving in to the game her friend was playing. At these words Ruby beamed and grabbed Weiss' hand pulling her along.

"Yay! Now let's get moving!"

Weiss sighed. How had she become such good friends with this girl in such a short time? As they walked along the path, Ruby and Weiss talked about anything that came to mind and since Ruby was so hyperactive the conversation could radically shift with no warning. They walked for a while through the large park until Ruby suddenly stopped and turned to her companion with a serious expression on her face.

"Ruby what's a matter?" Weiss asked.

"Weiss I need you to close your eyes for the surprise." Weiss stared at Ruby before sighing exasperatedly.

"Fine." She closed her eyes, but soon felt a pair of warm soft hands placed over her face.

"No peeking." Was the happily explained answer. Weiss blushed at how close the other girl was to her and hoped she couldn't feel the heat on her face.

As she was led to the surprise, Weiss wondered what it could be. After thinking, her best guess was a picnic. Weiss felt the hands lift from her face.

"Okay you can open your eyes now!" Doing as she was told and excited to see what the surprise was, Weiss quickly opened her eyes. The sight took her breath away. They were standing in a clearing in the woods with a small lake in the center ringed by tall oak trees. The water was so pristine, clear, and unpolluted that you could see the aquatic life going on underneath the surface.

"Ruby it's beautiful…..what is this?" Weiss asked as a red fishing rod was pressed into her hands. Ruby was holding a matching fishing rod colored white.

"We're fishing silly!" Weiss just stared at her red-haired friend.

"I know that. I meant; why are we fishing?"

"I just thought it would be fun."

"Well I've never fished before so I do not know what to do." Weiss informed Ruby, deciding to just go with the flow.

"Oh don't worry neither do I!" Ruby said cheerfully as she started to bait her hook. Weiss looked incredulously at her before realizing this was probably typical of the girl.

So both girls were soon stumbling through setting up their rods, Weiss more so than Ruby, but soon both girls were sitting on the edge of the lake waiting for a nibble. The girls continued talking, not paying much mind to the rods as the fish were not biting much. Weiss continued admiring the surrounding nature and noticed a fire pit a little ways away from them. Ruby ended up catching the first fish, a small thing that she threw back. She ended up catching more than Weiss, but they both were only catching small fish that were promptly thrown back. As they were getting ready to call it a day Weiss got a large bite and when she tried reeling the fish in, it put up a fight. Weiss struggled to win, but she was fighting a losing battle. Before the fish could get away though, Weiss felt a body press against her back and a familiar pair of hands cover her own.

"This is a big one!" Ruby shouted as she helped pull the fish in, adding her strength to Weiss'. Together they were able to reel the fish in. Weiss would have blushed from the close proximity to Ruby if she wasn't filled with the adrenaline of trying to capture their prey. The fish was large; easily twenty pounds.

"Whoa, nice catch Weiss!" Ruby said as she held the fish up. "Looks like we have dinner, but first." she said as she handed the fish to Weiss and pulled out her phone, "Say Fish!"

Weiss smiled as she thought to herself "Another great day with Ruby."

"Fish!" she said as the camera snapped a picture of her with her catch.

"Now this part I know, Blake showed me how!" Ruby said as her and Weiss walked over to the fire pit and then Ruby showed step-by-step how to scale and debone the fish to a slightly revolted Weiss. After that was done, they lit a fire in the fire pit and Ruby cooked the fish. She had come prepared in the event that they caught a fish and had brought spices for seasoning their catch, along with plates and utensils to eat it with.

Soon the fish was done cooking and Ruby put a portion onto two plates and handed one to Weiss and kept the other for herself. Soon, both girls were enjoying their hard earned meal.

"This is delicious! Ruby you really know how to cook." Weiss complemented after a bite of the well-cooked fish.

"Thanks, but you should really thank Blake. She showed me how, she really loves to cook fish." Ruby said with her mouth full.

"Ruby swallow your food before you speak or you'll choke." her snowy-haired friend scolded her before she took another bite of her own fish.

"Uggggghhhhhh fine Princess." Ruby groaned after she swallowed the food in her mouth.

"Thank you Ruby. Both for chewing your food and for the great day. I had a good time and I'm glad you asked me to come." Weiss said as she placed her empty plate to the side.

"You're welcome Weiss! But you don't need to thank me. Of course I would invite you, you're my Best Friend!" Ruby said as she put her plate down too and pulled Weiss into a hug. This time Weiss didn't try to push Ruby away. Instead, she enjoyed the contact, somehow managing not to blush.

They left the park before sundown and Ruby walked Weiss home. As they arrived outside her door they both stood around, feeling a bit awkward. Neither sure of how to end such a great day. Ruby was the one to break the tension.

"Well I had a great day today Weiss! We should do this more often." Ruby said her with her usual smile adorning her face.

"Of course you dolt." Weiss said as she pulled Ruby into another hug before she walked towards her door. Opening it, she turned back to Ruby with a light blush on her face.

"Maybe sometime I'll arrange the surprise for you. Goodnight, Ruby." Weiss said softly.

Ruby replied with a smile and a simple answer "I'm looking forward to it."
