Zwei tugged on the leash a little, pulling to get back to their dorm room but Yang kept a firm grip and didn't let the little guy get away. She knew that he was anxious to get back because they were walking so much slower than usual. It was dark out, it was late, and Zwei was probably tired, but Yang had two very important reasons to stay out of her room a little longer. One was that Ruby and Blake were back in the dorm and they were having their heart to heart, figuring themselves out, doing what they needed to do. The other was that Yang had a very content Heiress clinging to her arm right now, using Yang's natural body heat to ward off the early evening cold. If she was perfectly honest with herself, there was nowhere else on Remnant Yang would rather be right now.

"Thank you Yang. I had a really nice time tonight." Weiss hugged closer to Yang's arm, both of her small slender ones wrapped around Yang's firm, muscular one. She wanted to slide her arm around Weiss's shoulders, but she just seemed so happy to cling to her and rest her head on Yang's shoulder the way she was.

"Yeah, I had a really nice time too." Yang leaned her head down just enough to rest it against the top of Weiss's for a moment before straightening back up. "It was really great to just walk and talk and watch the stars."

"I'll admit," Weiss sounded a little sleepy, she had her eyes closed and was trusting in Yang to guide her back to the dorms safely, "I didn't think you had a side like this. It's very pleasant to know it exists." Weiss turned her neck just slightly, rubbing her temple affectionately against Yang's shoulder.

"Well yeah." Yang laughed, "Even I have to slow down sometimes right?" Zwei barked and pulled at the leash a little harder but Yang flexed her wrist just slightly and he came to heel. He was a good dog, really. He just got separation anxiety when he was away from Ruby or Yang for too long and not in his home. He had gotten better about being in the dorm room since he had been at Beacon and was probably starting to think of it as his new home. Yang wondered what it would be like once her dad took him back home to Patch.

Together the couple made their way back to the dorms slowly but surely. Zwei eventually got the idea that they were taking things slow and took advantage of it to stroll and sniff around the couple in a small circle, meandering from side to side along the path as they walked. Yang was able to mostly ignore him and enjoy the walk with Weiss as much as possible. Part of her was worried about Ruby and Blake back in the dorm, but she knew that worrying would get her nowhere. She was also confident that Blake's feelings were true and that she and Ruby would figure everything out.

They came to the big doors at the base of the dorm and Weiss stopped. She pulled away from Yang and straightened her clothing, trying to make herself presentable for their friends inside. Yang picked up Zwei so she could carry him up the stairs and to their room. She liked to carry him in the building because he barked a lot and ran around if she didn't. It was late and she wanted to avoid disturbing everyone else with this dog that they really weren't supposed to have. Weiss finished with her fussing and leaned forward to give Zwei a scratch between his ears.

"This was refreshing Yang, thank you." Weiss leaned up on her tiptoes and pressed a light kiss to Yang's cheek. Yang smiled like a fool. Oh, how those little kisses got to her. Somehow, they seemed more affectionate than full on kisses or even more so than making out. Just that little show of appreciation from Weiss was amazing. It made Yang know she had done something right.

Without waiting for a response Weiss slid through the doorway and started into the building. Yang shook herself back to reality and followed quickly behind, trying to catch Weiss without chasing after her. She caught up to her petite girlfriend and grabbed her around the waist with her free arm. Weiss let out a small, startled yelp but didn't pull away from her at all.

"Now you don't think you can get away with just that do you?" Yang leaned down placed a kiss on Weiss's temple, then her cheek, then her neck. Weiss let out a little moan of pleasure as Yang lingered on her neck. Then, in perfect mood breaking fashion, Zwei stretched over and licked Weiss's face.

"Oh, aghck, eww." Weiss stumbled away from Yang wiping at her face with both hands. "Okay Yang, I love him and all but we need to put Zwei in the room if we want to do...uhh...that." A blush spread up Weiss's slender neck and dusted her cheeks a light pink as she finished her sentence.

"Okay deal." Yang grabbed Weiss's hand eagerly. She liked those little kisses. That much was true. But that didn't mean she didn't like grabbing Weiss by the waist and lifting her up against a wall too. "I feel like my sister." Yang laughed and dashed up the stairs, doing her best to hurry Weiss along with her but also making sure not to actually drag her up the stairs or yank her arm.

They reached the door and Weiss came to a halt at Yang's side. Zwei barked happily and Yang immediately tried to shush him. The last thing they needed was someone from JNPR or APCT coming out here. Then they would want to talk and stuff and they wouldn't have any time. Yang scratched Zwei's head to try and silence his barks and tapped her scroll on the door to open it. She yanked it open when she heard the lock disengage and practically chucked Zwei inside. She saw Ruby and Blake under the blanket on Ruby's bed and called up to them.

"Hey, me and Weiss are gonna be a little later bye." She waved with the hand she had just dumped Zwei out of and shut the door. She could faintly hear Zwei barking and pawing at Weiss's bed to try and get to Ruby. But she and Blake were up in her bed under the covers and didn't look like they were coming down anytime soon. Wait, Ruby and Blake were in Ruby's bed? Under the covers? "Sorry babe." Yang didn't even pause long enough to give Weiss an apologetic glance before she threw the door back open and tore across the room to Ruby's bedside. "What's going on here?"

"Hmm?" Blake looked up from the book she was reading and glanced at Yang innocently. Ruby was snoring quietly, hands draped around Blake's neck and head lolled off to the side. She looked perfectly peaceful and more importantly, perfectly clothed. Blake had one arm around Ruby' shoulders, holding her close and the other supporting her book. Yang tried her best to recover herself and assume control of her emotions.

"Wait Blake." Yang caught herself and lowered her voice to avoid waking Ruby. "Does this mean what I think it means?" Yang gripped the edge of the bed eagerly. She hadn't realized how much she was anticipating this until she saw them lying there. She was full of hope that they had talked and this was their first time cuddling as a couple and she was happy that cuddling is all that was happening.

"Before I answer…" Blake hesitated, "I need to be sure about what you think this means." Blake looked between Ruby's sleeping form and Yang's bright eyes.

"Ahhhh," Weiss squealed from the doorway and rushed over to the bed. The sound of her girlish scream woke Ruby up enough that she lifted her head and wiped at her eyes sleepily, disentangling herself from Blake in the process. "Oh my Oum look at you two." Weiss stopped at the bedside as Ruby wiped the sleep away and came back to full consciousness.

"Oh, hey Weiss." Ruby glanced at her and sluggishly swung her head to the side to find Yang. "Ahhh." Ruby's eyes went wide and she yelped at her sister's closeness and stumbled backwards on her mattress. She likely would have slipped off, as she had done countless times before, if Blake wasn't right behind her to arrest her retreat. Instead, Ruby slipped off her hands and sprawled across Blake's lap, arms and legs tangled in the blankets as she flailed about helplessly, not entirely coherent yet.

"Hey there," Blake laid a hand softly on Ruby's forehead and she stopped flailing. For a moment the two girls stared into eachother's eyes and Ruby slowly sat up, now much calmer and in control of herself. "Better?" Ruby nodded in affirmation and lifted her head to look at Yang.

"Hey Yang," Ruby said quietly, more than a little embarrassed.

"Alright Ruby. I think you've got some explaining to do here." Yang crossed her arms and leaned back just slightly. She wanted Ruby to at least understand that falling asleep like that alone in the dorm room was slightly inappropriate. Especially when they knew their roommates would be back later that very same evening. But, she was also absolutely overjoyed that it appeared Blake and Ruby were finally a couple.

"Whuh?" Ruby's eyes went wide in shock, "No, no. Nothing happened. I mean, well, something did happen. But I thought, you said outside. Yang what's wrong?" Ruby's eyes darted back and forth between Yang and Weiss. Blake stayed silent. She knew from her talk with Yang how she felt about this so she seemed more than happy to watch Ruby struggle under the pressure.

"Ruby," Weiss snapped. The sharp noise brought Ruby to attention and her restless gaze settled on her partner. "Are you two dating now or not?" Weiss asked quite directly. Why did she always have to ruin everyone's fun. Ice Queen. Yang shot her a dirty look which she thoroughly ignored.

"Well, you see, the thing is…" Ruby began to stammer and falter, more than a little put off by Weiss's attitude. She glanced at the blankets, kneaded the legs of her pajamas in her hands and fidgeted. Blake leaned in from behind and wrapped her arms calmly around Ruby's middle. The action drew Ruby's attention and she twisted her neck to see Blake, then leaned back into her embrace. "Yeah we are." Ruby said with closed eyes and a small smile on her face.

"Ahhhhh!" Weiss screamed again and pulled Ruby halfway down off the bed in a hug. "Oh you stupid little dolt what took you so long?" Ruby choked as Weiss squeezed her around the neck. Yang laughed and glanced over to Blake. She was smiling wider than Yang could ever remember having seen her smile.

"Ahggh Weiss. Please." Ruby made a choking noise in her throat and Weiss finally released her.

"Well I'm sorry. I just thought I would show you how happy I was that you finally stopped being an ignorant little dunce about this whole situation." Weiss crossed her arms and turned her back on them, "We'll see how long it is before I open myself up again."

"Oh don't be like that Weiss." Yang stepped in front of her and wrapped her arms around the slender girl's shoulders. "Come on now, be happy for them."

"I am happy for them." Weiss sighed, "Your sister doesn't seem to appreciate it though."

"I do Weiss I do. But could you do it without choking me next time?" Ruby rubbed at her throat and Blake pulled her back to her in a gentle hug from behind. They nuzzled the sides of their faces together and Yang couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright, alright." Yang released Weiss and shook her hands in the air. "If I'm not allowed to make out with Weiss, then you two aren't allowed to do that." Yang waved her hands in the couple's general direction as they continued to snuggle.

"You stop it Yang." Blake lifted her cheek away from Ruby to leer at her. "This isn't nearly the same as making out." she lowered her head and continued to snuggle with her brand new girlfriend. "You two can go do that in the hallway if you want." Yang leered right back and stomped back towards her bed.

"Fine, maybe that's what we'll do." Yang grabbed Weiss's hand as she stomped away and turned back once she had reached her bunk. She took off her jacket and threw it on the bed, then offered to take Weiss's which she kindly obliged and allowed. Yang took it off gently, folded it carefully and laid it neatly on the edge of her mattress.

"Thank you Yang." Weiss smiled and nodded her head before taking Yang's arm again.

"Well yeah, that thing costs more than my bike." Yang laughed and strut back over to the bedside. "Alright. We're gonna go." She announced far more loudly than she needed to.

"Okay then, you two have fun," Blake said quietly without lifting from Ruby, "Ruby and I will just be in here. Alone." A small smile spread across Blake's lip and Yang nearly yanked her off the bed.

"Guys, guys stop." Ruby pulled away from Blake and shot her signature, 'angry team leader' look at both of them. "Can we not? Please." She took a deep breath and resumed a calm, even look. "Okay, so you two are dating," she cocked her head in Yang and Weiss's direction, "And us two are dating," she leaned her head back towards Blake. "But, we're still a team right? Yang you're my sister. Blake you're her partner. Weiss you're my partner. We need to get along, like all the time." Ruby crossed her arms and regarded them all evenly.

"Yes. Though I'm a little embarrassed to admit it," Weiss shot Ruby an icy look, "Ruby's right. Yang," she turned on her girlfriend, "You need to calm down. They're only snuggling faces. That's perfectly acceptable behavior for an hours old couple." She turned back to Ruby and Blake, "And I, for my part at least, will do my best to ensure that Yang doesn't get out of hand." Yang reached a hand to put it over Weiss's shoulder but she batted it away with a deft smack of the brawler's wrist, never even turning to look at her.

"Sorry Yang," Blake admitted sullenly. "I should be thanking you, not throwing it in your face. You're the only reason I even admitted to all of this." Blake glanced down at Ruby and back at Yang, "You're the only reason I'm getting to date your sister. Thank you Yang." Blake reached a hand forward and Yang met her halfway. They couldn't hug because their respective girlfriends were in the way, but a quick squeeze of each other's hands would do for now.

"So Weiss?" Yang turned slightly and winked at her, "Are we still gonna go make out?"

"You brute!" Weiss slapped Yang's shoulder and her face went bright red. "It was one thing when you were making a point, but, it is quite another to just ask me outright like that."

"Soooo…." Yang laughed to show Weiss she was only kidding, "That's a no then?"

"It is most definitely a no." Weiss dropped to a seated position on her bed, "I can't believe you."

"I can." Ruby raised her hand emphatically without leaving Blake's embrace, "I can totally believe that." Yang laughed loudly and dropped to Weiss's side on her bed.

She slid her arm over the heiress's shoulder and snuck a quick kiss on her cheek. Weiss's whole face and neck went a deeper red but she didn't complain. Yang knew she was just embarrassed in front of the other two but down here where they couldn't see, well that was something entirely different. Yang pulled back but was absolutely thrilled when Weiss darted over and gave her a quick peck back, right at the peak of her cheekbone.

"So," Weiss called up to the bed above them, somehow completely in control of her voice despite the radiant blush she was sporting, "When are you two going to go on your first real date?"

"What do you mean?" Ruby asked in a slightly more high pitched voice than usual which made Yang more than a little suspicious of Blake. She took a breath though and reminded herself that this was Blake, she had to trust her, she could trust her. "Doesn't this count as a date?"

"No, it most certainly does not." Weiss snapped again, "You two need to go out on a proper date." Weiss went to stand but Yang held her down. Now wasn't the time to get up and lecture them, nor did she want to lose the opportunity to snuggle Weiss. So instead of getting up and pointing authoritatively at them, Weiss slipped back down onto the bed with a muffled eep. Yang snuggled into her, pulling her close and burying her face in Weiss's neck.

There was a moment of silence, likely the two above trying to interpret the noises coming from beneath them. After a second or two of Weiss trying to act offended and Ruby and Blake remaining mostly silent, another thing that made Yang suspicious but at the moment she definitely was in no position to judge, Blake finally spoke up.

"What do you suggest as a proper date then Weiss?" Blake's voice wasn't irritated, it actually sounded curious, like she was looking for ideas. That was good at least. Yang knew that Ruby was still new at this and probably did enjoy just sitting around with Blake and being girlfriends perfectly fine. But, Yang also knew that for them to build a real relationship and start developing in their feelings for each other that they needed to go out on dates, get to know each other even better than they already did and foster this new level of their connection. She was glad to see that Blake seemed to understand that as well, or at least that she wanted to take Ruby out.

"Well, the two of you need to come to some arrangement as to who is taking who out each time. You can trade off or whatever, but one of you should feel special the whole time, like you're being treated." Weiss began and Yang pulled on her shoulder just enough to catch her attention. Weiss stopped mid explanation and turned on Yang.

"What are you talking about?" Yang chuckled, "Just because you're a princess doesn't mean everyone is." Yang leaned forward and gave her now furious girlfriend a kiss on the forehead. "What you two need to do is something that you'll both enjoy. A way for you to spend time together, to talk and enjoy each other's company." she called up to the bed and then realized exactly who she was talking to. "You need to go do more things like you did the other night, just now do them as a couple, not just friends."

"Oh yeah?" Ruby mocked, "And why would you know so much when you and Weiss think such different things?" Yang could tell that Ruby thought she had the upper hand, but she was the older sister, Ruby never got the upper hand.

"We don't Ruby. Weiss just doesn't know it." Yang said calmly and Weiss turned in her arms, staring at her in shock. "See, when we go out, I shower Weiss in compliments and I buy lunch even though she's the rich one, I hold her hand and open doors and do all those sorts of things." Weiss's shock lessened and her blush slowly returned as Yang rattled off the conscious efforts she made on her behalf. "But I do those things because it makes her happy and it makes me happy to see her smile." Yang smiled down at Weiss and saw that embarrassed happy look that she loved more than almost anything else. It was beat by a few things, Ruby and her Dad for instance, but really not all that much.

Weiss leaned up and kissed Yang full on the mouth. Yang wanted to protest but then remembered that Ruby couldn't see them and so pulled Weiss closer to her. She held the smaller girl tight and put one hand against the back of her head, letting her know that she didn't want her to leave.

"Okay, well." Ruby thought out loud and Yang took the opportunity to continue kissing Weiss, "How about this Friday then? We can go out and you two can stay in. Everybody wins right?" Yang pressed the kiss one last time and pulled away so she could answer her sister. Weiss made a small noise of disappointment, barely audible even to Yang, and tucked her head against the blonde's shoulder.

"That sounds great to me." Yang hollered, "What are you two gonna do?"

"We'll figure it out." Blake said evenly, "Don't make her freak out about it. As long as we get to spend time together, I know we'll enjoy ourselves."

"Yeah." Ruby called out defiantly, "Me and Blake will have plenty of fun on our own." Yang could practically see Ruby's tongue over the edge of the bed she was sticking it out so far.

"Yeah, yeah I'm sure you will." Yang teased, "Now, kick Blake out of your bed so we can go to sleep." Weiss giggled and Ruby and Blake both sighed audibly. Yang figured there was no harm in giving them a few more moments alone up there, especially considering it gave her and Weiss a few more moments alone down here.

She kissed the top of Weiss's head which brought her attention up to her. Then Yang lowered her mouth down to Weiss's and pressed a soft, slow kiss to her lips. It wasn't long before Weiss slipped her tongue in between Yang's lips and they wrapped their arms fully around one another. Yang pulled her close and swung one leg over Weiss's legs, wrapping her fully up in her limbs. She knew Weiss was always cold and she knew how much she enjoyed sharing Yang's natural warmth. Yang also knew how much she loved to have as much of herself in contact with the other girl as possible.

"And how is it that you're allowed to tell us to behave ourselves?" Blake asked calmly. Weiss nearly jumped out of Yang's arms and they whipped their heads up to regard the Faunus girl. Somehow she had climbed down from Ruby's bed without making a noise. Weiss literally shoved Yang out of her bed and threw a pillow over her own head in embarrassment. Yang didn't have to see her face to know how red she was.

"Oh you shut it." Yang levered herself up off the floor and stomped away to her bed. Of course Blake had come down and ruined their perfectly intimate moment.

"Oh gross, were they making out?" Ruby asked no one in particular.

"Don't worry," Blake said softly, "Weiss promised they'd behave remember?"

A/N - Oh. My. Oum. It feels good to have good, old fashioned fluff again. Honestly, after how long this story has been as serious as it is, I am really glad to be able to post happy little fluffy chapters with almost zero drama like this. I hope you all enjoyed it just as much as I did.

I continue to have a lot of fun playing with perspective here, mostly using it to tease all of you. Who knows what Ruby and Blake were doing up there? Perhaps they were just snuggling and whispering sweet nothings to each other. Perhaps they were doing more… I will leave that up to however smutty your imagination is. Just remember, that bed is hanging, so it would sway if they tried anything too adventurous up there.

Can't wait to hear what you all think. Over the weekend we'll get a for realsies Ladybug date. Ahhhh I'm so happy we're finally here!
