Weiss pov

Jealous, there was no other word that could describe how Weiss was feeling right now as she looked at Ruby surrounded by a mob of people.

It was the first day after they received their license and Weiss and Ruby had taken a border patrol mission by one of the weak points in the walls that surrounded Mantle. What had originally had been a seemingly uneventful shift had been interrupted by the arrival of 7 beowolves.

While dispatching them had been relatively simple. A slightly larger beowolf had split off from the pack and had slipped through the walls. The siren and screams of a few bystanders had alerted Ruby and she had gone to take it out, leaving Weiss to dispatch the remaining two.

After finishing off the wolves. Weiss had run to check on Ruby, finding her landing the finishing blow to it's neck with Crescent Rose, narrowly saving a young man who got backed up into a wall.

Weiss had jogged over to Ruby and hissed at her. "Are you ok? You shouldn't run off on your own you dolt." "I'm perfectly fine Weiss, if I can't handle a single beowolf I might as well just toss my license to an ursa." replied Ruby, giggling slightly as she looked at Weiss being so concerned over her.

Weiss, who had a small blush on her face at this point, was about to suggest they head back to the wall to check for more beowolves when she was suddenly pushed back by a mob of people who surrounded Ruby. They had seen Ruby in action and were quick to praise her, some were clasping her hands with theirs and showering her with thank yous and giving her offerings of rewards.

This was fine and all, Weiss had knew her partner deserved most of the credit, she even took the initiative and ran to save that poor guy, that is until said young man had pushed his way through the crowd, took Ruby's hand, and had thanked her profusely, all of this with a certain glint in his eye.

This created a sharp feeling within Weiss, it was a feeling she knew well, mostly associated with being one upped in a class or beaten in training but had recently been occuring more often as she had been reunited with team RWBY.

It was jealousy, and she knew exactly why. It had started before the fall of beacon, a flutter in her chest when Ruby complimented her, a little blush as Weiss and Ruby's hand had brushed each other. Weiss had brushed it off at first as normal behavior that happend with friends, but it took her being separated from Ruby to realise what she was feeling, she had a major crush on the scythe wielder.

So when the young man had grabbed Ruby's hand, it made her act without thinking. She pushed her way through the crowd and 'accidentally' pushed the man away.

Ruby who got distracted did not notice this and she also didn't notice the glare Weiss gave the man. her reputation as heiress to the Schnee Dust company did the rest as the man recognised her and just mumbled something about leaving the oven on at and walked away.

Weiss sighed, she had been taking a lot of care in trying to be a better person ever since she escaped the family mansion but she just couldn't help herself this time. She supposed she could have handled it better but there was nothing she could do now.

Noticing the time. Weiss looked over at her partner and said " Ruby we gotta get going, it's almost lunch and Yang would kill us if we don't take her to that bar we found earlier." she then pulled Ruby away from the crowd.

"Awwww but Weissssss, that old lady just said she would bake me some cookies!" whined Ruby, Weiss rolled her eyes, "There is a bakery across the street from the bar, we can get some cookies there to fuel your sugar addiction."

"It's not a sugar addiction! It's a cookie addiction! They're totally different addictions." replied Ruby, puffing her cheeks out in mock hurt. "Dolt…" muttered Weiss, she then looked at Ruby and with a small jolt realized she was looking at their hands, which were still together. Ruby smirked as Weiss quickly pulled her hand away, blushing a very pink color.

They were walking back to a transport ship that would take them back to Atlas, the floating city above Mantle. They got on and the ship flew them upwards towards the flying island in the sky. Where they were deposited at the edge of the city because the pilot had 'important business' to attend to.

Although Weiss suspected that Ruby's new habit of opening the doors to admire the city, which also let all the cold air in, had started to annoy him and had cut their trip a bit short.

So Ruby and Weiss had to now walk back to their dorms at the hunter academy in Atlas. Weiss had started to feel a bit nervous, this was the first time that the two huntressess were alone together in weeks, usually they had Yang yelling and burning some random object and Blake repremanding her. But now it was just them walking alone. Together.

"Do you think the weapons shops here have a workshop for custom crafts?" asked Ruby, suddenly snapping Weiss from her thoughts. Ruby was gazing at a weapons store titled The Hunters Armory and Supply Warehouse and had removed the collapsed Crescent Rose from her back and was tracing the edges with her fingers. "I'd love to give my baby a tune up but you always complain about all the parts I leave around." said Ruby.

"Of course you dolt, Atlas is one of the most advanced kingdoms in Remnant, but as my partner and best friend," said Weiss, who regretted saying that out loud as, in the corner of her eye, she could see Ruby start to smile widely.

"You deserve the best quality workshop, I won't let any partner of mine go out with a subpar repair on their weapon." Weiss barely had time to turn to look at Ruby when she was suddenly crushed by Ruby as she gushed "WEISS THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU YOU'RE AMAZING!"

Weiss could start to feel her aura start to waver as Ruby kept squeezing and snapped at her "RUBY! You dolt you're going to seriously injure me!"

"Sorry… I'm just really happy and excited. I mean just think of all the ways i can improve Crescent Rose!" said Ruby.

Weiss looked at the girl with a tired but happy expression and said "Honestly Ruby, if you get more excited you might just turn into Nora. Also we should head to the shop tomorrow because we still gotta deal with Yang first remember?"

After a few minutes of walking, the silence that had covered the pair was broken, "I don't know why I have to go though, I'm not even old enough to drink." mumbled Ruby, as they walked up the steps of the academy, "I hope they at least have some good burgers." she continued, "or maybe some decent fries, I saw a sign about a special spicy fries."

Weiss was about to reply when Yang burst out from around the corner with Blake in her arms and an evil grin and glint in her eye that Weiss had associated with disaster. The blond then saw the two girls and yelled "There you two are, me and Blakey finished our hunt an hour ago!" Blake, who was slightly miffed at Yang for the nickname, said "We should head out right now, the bar closes in a few hours and Yang has a tendency to party"

Yang broke into a run and pushed Ruby and Weiss along "Blakey is right, I gotta start the Yang party as soon as possible!"
