Just One Date

Volume 3

Chapter 1: Mornings

Yang sat up suddenly in bed. The room was dark, but she could easily tell that this wasn't her room. Looking over, she saw a head of blue hair and remembered where she was. Feeling a slight chill, she looked down and almost immediately grabbed the blanket to cover up. She had remembered coming over to watch a few MMA DVDs with Neptune.

After that, it was a whirlwind and she couldn't exactly remember clearly what had happened. Looking over at the table between the beds, she could see her scroll. She picked it up and checked the time.

3AM. But no messages. Which seemed odd, until she remembered that she had told her team mates that she probably wouldn't be back. Not wanting to waste a moment, she moved back under the blanket, and cuddled up next to Neptune, wrapping an arm around his waist. As she lay there, she felt content and at peace. No need to worry. Not like the other boys she had dated in the past.

If this was what it felt like to be cared for, she didn't want it to end. So she gave him a little hug and fell sleep once again.

At about 7, however, her alarm woke her from her peaceful slumber. As she rolled over, she remembered that she was supposed to meet up with Coco before class. As she rushed to get ready, he accidentally woke up her sleeping lover.

"Wazzit…." As he sat up groggy, he rubbed his eyes. As they adjusted to the low light, he saw her rushing around to gather her things before she left.

"You're up early."

She looked over. "Yeah. Forgot about a meeting before class. I'll see you later tonight?"

He nodded as she came over and gave him a brief kiss on the cheek. She then bounded out the door. As it closed, Neptune sat back in his bed. As long as he was up, he may as well get dressed and take a walk to make sure Sun hadn't managed to freeze with his idea to "sleep in every tree on campus".

A few floors up, Ruby was waking up to Zwei jumping on her. As she initially wondered how the Corgi had learned to climb, she remembered that she and Weiss had decided to share a bed. So her bed was now storage. Sort of. It was mainly home to their clothes and various piles of paper. If Ruby was up studying, however, she would do it in her bed, and let Weiss sleep. It seemed like an odd arrangement, but it worked for them. She rolled over to sleep some more and saw her girlfriend's sleeping face.

She marveled at how serene her face was when she slept. As the heiress shifted, her hair fell away from the scar on the left side of her face. Ruby had never bothered to ask about it, as she figured it was a thing from the past that was better left there. She closed her eyes for a moment and was soon fast asleep, curled up against Weiss.

Across the room, Zwei had taken to conquering Blake's bed, much to the Faunus' chagrin. Still, she did not mind the dog's company as much as she had originally. She lifted the blanket a little to allow him to climb under, where he proceeded to head to the back of her knees and curl up.

On the other end of the campus, Oobleck was in the middle of trudging through the kitchen to make some coffee. He stopped as Port held out a mug filled with the steaming black liquid. He graciously accepted the beverage, then sped out of the room after he had consumed a single sip, leaving his mustached cohort in the dust.

Back in the dorms, Nora was still snoring, with her head buried below her pillow, and her rear thrust up into the air, the blankets attempting to fight gravity. Ren was sitting on the floor, meditating, as he had woken a few hours prior. Jaune and Pyrrha, meanwhile were still serenely oblivious to the whole goings on, as they were tucked in tighter than would seem humanly possible.

To Be Continued…

I really need to stop introducing new characters from the series into this. Coco may only be a series of brief cameos, same with the rest of Team CFVY. We just don't know enough about them yet.
