Ruby spun, yet again, in her new dress. "Oh my god! It's sooo perfect!" She excitedly said at the mirror in her room. Never in her life did she think she could look this good and feel so perfect like she did at this moment in time. It was like a dream she got stuck in and she definitely didn't want to leave it anytime soon! She spun again to make the dress flutter as she started to giggle to herself.
"Please don't make yourself sick, Ruby," Weiss said. "You just got that and I don't want to explain to Yang how you managed to ruin your dress before her wedding."
Weiss was right unfortunately so Ruby stopped twirling immediately. The excitement wore off and dizziness set itself into her head. "Woah! You're right, Weiss. Five more spins like that and I wouldn't be able to stand," Ruby admitted through her laughter.
Weiss sighed and reached out to Ruby to hold her steady. "I swear. You do this with every dress you get. Doesn't it get old?"
Ruby started laughing again despite still feeling a little woozy. "I thought you said you were following trans blogs and other stuff online? That's, like, the thing. You get a new dress? You spin it to make it flutter out! It feels sooooo good to do it!"
Weiss shrugged. "To me it just looks like you're chasing your tail."
"Weiss! I don't have a tail! What's with you and this whole me being a dog thing?" Ruby asked with a smile on her face.
Weiss just gave her a smirk. "You're not a dog, Ruby." Weiss gave her girlfriend a peck on the lips. "You're my little pup." Weiss' smirk grew into a smile as Ruby's face started to show signs of her blushing.
"You're so weird Weiss…" Ruby mumbled.
Weiss just kept on smiling. "And yet, you'll be asking for me to scratch behind your ears later on tonight, most likely." Ever since they started dating, Ruby started being slowly introduced to Weiss' innermost personality. She was normally serious but apparently if you dated her long enough you would be introduced to a side of the white-haired girl who loved things like silly pet-names and getting randomly touchy-feely despite nothing actually happening to cause it. "Though, I guess I do make a lot of jokes about you being a puppy. Maybe I should tone it down..." Weiss implied.
Ruby's instinct was to agree but then a small amount of disappointment started spiking in her head. "I mean, it's not like you're causing any problems talking like that…" Ruby started to say shyly.
"Oh?" Weiss said with a fake surprise. "It's starting to sound like you actually like it, Ruby." She said accusingly.
"Maybe a tiny bit…"
Weiss smiled wide and grabbed either side of Ruby's face to bring it face to face with Weiss'. "Aww, my little pup is being cute and shy again." Weiss said in a voice that made Ruby's chest go tight. It was a nice feeling that only got more intense when one of Weiss' hands reached behind Ruby's ear and started lightly scratching her head. At that point, all hope of being cool and normal went out the window in Ruby's brain. Without hesitation, Ruby's head fell onto Weiss' shoulder with a quiet groan. "Good girl." Weiss said. "Good little pup."
"Weiss…" Ruby moaned. Then the pleasure completely stopped which annoyed Ruby. "Why'd you stop?" She asked while lifting her head slightly.
"Oh, did you want me to keep going?" Weiss asked coyly.
"...Yeah…" Ruby replied.
Weiss took her time responding. "Why should I continue?"
Ruby knew exactly where Weiss was going with this. "Becusimagopu…" Ruby mumbled in an attempt to hide her embarrassment.
"What was that?" Weiss asked.
Ruby sighed. "Because I'm a good pup…"
"And what does my little pup want?"
"She wants to be called a good girl and have her ears scratched…" Ruby admitted. There was no way her face wasn't lit up like a Christmas tree at this point but hopefully being hidden against Weiss' shoulder could hide it. None of that mattered though the second Weiss finally started back to giving Ruby exactly what she wanted. The feeling of her head being scratched was amazing. "That's my good girl." Weiss began cooing into Ruby's ear. Each time she said it only made Ruby sink more and more into Weiss. At one point it was too much for Weiss and they both fell back onto the bed. Ruby didn't care though. She was in absolute heaven with each scratch and the soft words Weiss whispered. "Careful. We can't get your pretty new dress wrinkled and dirty…" That made an almost involuntary whine come from Ruby's throat. "No whining, Ruby." Weiss immediately chastised. "You need to go take it off and hang it properly so it's ready for the wedding."
"Fine…" Ruby said sadly and got up off of Weiss to go and get undressed. The bathroom did give Ruby a small moment to clear her head. She never believed someone like her could find someone like Weiss who loved her so much. Before meeting her, Ruby had played with the idea of just giving up on finding anyone. But then she started her crush on Weiss when the girl showed up on the first day of college. Ruby had done everything she could to be friends with her until they finally went out for coffee one day and things kept snowballing. And now, here she was, essentially naked in Weiss' bathroom. Something that she would have never believed would happen in her life. She was so happy that even the mirror could bring her down. Well, as long as she didn't take her underwear off anyway… or paid too much attention to her hips… or her arms…
Slender arms wrapped around her. "Ruby, you've been in here a while." Weiss said. "You looked in the mirror too long, didn't you?" She asked. Ruby nodded her head and forced her eyes to stop looking at her own body and chose to look at Weiss' face in the mirror. Weiss wasn't quite tall enough to look over Ruby's shoulder so she was leaning to the side of Ruby's shoulder. The sight was cute but it still reminded Ruby about how tall she was. Her girlfriend noticed this and spun her around to be face to face. "Ruby, you're beautiful. You know that, right?"
"I try to think that, at least." Ruby replied with an attempted smile. "You know how I am."
"Maybe," Weiss mused. "But that includes how nice you are, how cute you are, and how much I love you."
Ruby's mind had plenty of arguments against what Weiss said but the completely honest and happy face that Weiss was making snuffed out any argumentative fire that Ruby may have had. "I love you too, Weiss…"
Weiss frowned for a second before putting her smile back on. "I know. Tell me stuff you do enjoy about yourself." Weiss offered as an idea.
Ruby immediately wanted to reject the idea of trying to brag about herself. It just wasn't in her nature to do such a thing. "I don't really know about that, Weiss." Ruby said.
"Oh come on! You can't think of one thing you really like about yourself?" Weiss probed.
It was no use arguing with her. Ruby was trapped until she could think of something. The closest thing she could think about was her hair. She had put a lot of work in finding a style she liked and also matched her face. There were many times where Ruby wanted to just chop it back short and give up on it and transitioning but she had let it grow over and over with each new attempt at a style she liked. When she had finally put the final touches on, in the form of red highlights, Ruby couldn't help but think that she was finally getting to where she wanted to be. It was that memory that made Ruby realize that Weiss got what she wanted and made Ruby feel a lot better. Weiss was still waiting though. "Okay fine, I guess I really like my hair…" Ruby offered.
Weiss smiled wide at that. "Perfect example! I absolutely love your hair." Weiss told her. She reached up and started running her hand through random bits of it. "You've managed to make it softer than mine and it always has that smell of roses that I like to wake up to in the morning."
"You can stop now…" Ruby said, feeling a bit embarrassed by Weiss' praise.
"Never." Weiss said simply and then quickly stood on her toes to kiss Ruby's cheek before Ruby could even react. "No matter how much you ask, I'm not going to stop." Then she turned and grabbed Ruby's hand to begin leading her girlfriend back to the bedroom. "Besides, with the way you're dressed, or lack of it in this case.." Weiss began. "I'm thinking I could show you a lot more things I like about you…" She teased.
Ruby took the bait. "Like what?"
"Oh you'll find out." Weiss said. "But first, I need to see how this new collar looks on you…"
"Still weird…" Ruby muttered under her breath.
"And yet you love it. Now follow along, pup…"
"Yes, Weiss.."
