Hi Texa52 back again with an exciting new story. This time involving the adorable Ruby Rose and Jaune Arc. I honestly have no idea why this pairing is called Lancaster, and I prefer the name Rose Arc, on with this Rose Arc one-shot.

Beacon janitor closets were rather spacious these days, with the capacity to accommodate two students, a wooden desk, two chairs all at the same time, and the rooms themselves coming with electrical sockets for lamps, to Yang Xiao Long the closet was the perfect room for her interrogation tonight, her target?

Jaune Arc

So what had Jaune Arc done to piss off the best fighter of team RWBY (Ruby), whose temper knew no bounds. After all he was the nicest guy around, the least likely to hurt a fly, as a fly was more likely hurt him instead. Well, seducing her dear sister Ruby and taking her on a date without her permission, gave Yang more than an itchy trigger finger, it gave her a boner for murder. For the past month, she noticed Ruby was acting a little strange, especially around Jaune, what's worse was that she recently heard of a date between the two team leaders, gathering facts and tidbits of information on their movements for the past two months she was downright ready to murder the boy. Thankfully for Jaune, the anger management lessons, courtesy of Ren made Yang a calmer person, Some of the time, making Yang reconsider her actions. Maybe not everything was all it seemed, after all Jaune was an honest person, he would most likely admit seducing Ruby, under pressure or not. So an interrogation would be needed to determine what really happened, if the Arc was innocent he would be given a beating as a message, however if there was indeed funny business between her sister and the boy, well Yang would enjoy every second of castrating the Arc boy.

Jaune woke up feeling a slap on his face, then another one and another and another.

"Wake up Jauney." Said a sly voice

Waking up and realizing that it was Yang. " What the? Yang? Where are we? Are we in a janitor closet? What's happening?"

"Enough games with me Arc" snapped Yang slamming the wooden desk

"Um…What are you talking about?" asked Jaune nervously

"Just who in hell do you think you are, seducing my sister and taking her on a DATE?" asked Yang, whilst her Violet eyes changed to red, her golden hair began to glow, all signs indicating the hulk in Yang was close to unleashing

"Um…What?" asked Jaune confused.

"Don't play dumb with me Arc, around two months ago for the entire night what were you doing with Ruby?"

"Two months ago…if I remember correctly it was a Saturday night and I asked Ruby to go out for a jog."

"A jog?" asked Yang with a quizzical look

"Hey um…Ruby?"Jaune asked as he approached the red huntress in training.

"Oh Hey Jaune" answered Ruby with a small blush

"I need your help with something?"

"Okay shoot."

"Well, I've been getting better with my fighting, however I'm still not fast enough to dodge most of the attacks that come at me…so"

"So you want me to help you improve in dodging attacks? Well I guess I could get Crescent Rose and start shooting at you"

"Wait what?" asked Jaune slightly confused and frightened

"Nah, I'm joking" Snorted Ruby"if you want my advice, maybe we could go on a jog together…"

"A jog sounds better, I'll pick you up at eight."

"What like a date?" asked Ruby cautiously

"A date? ...Nah more like a training exercise between friends." Answered Jaune still oblivious to her feelings.

"Oh…Um okay, I'll see you at eight" said Ruby slightly disappointed that the Arc boy wasn't aware to the feelings she had for him.

Over the course of the past month Ruby realized that she was falling for Jaune and had developed a crush on him. She didn't know when they had started, maybe it was his charms rubbing off of her, or his traits, or his personality that attracted her attention, but it was clear to Ruby that Jaune Arc was who she wanted .The feelings she had for him made her both nervous and excited, excited because Jaune was the first crush she ever had, and nervous because knowing her older sister Yang, she would most likely try to eliminate the Arc, if she ever found out about her crush. So she hid her feelings for him in front of her sister, but she was still unable to resist showing them whenever she was with Jaune together.

At around eight the Arc knocked on the door of team RWBY (Ruby).Answering the door dressed in a red sports shorts, black shorts, with a pair of red sport shoes.

"Hey Jaune…"

"Hey Ruby…You ready?" asked Jaune while dressed in a black T-shirt, a pair of blue shorts and with a pair of yellow sport shoes.

"Um…Yeah…" answered ruby while blushing uncontrollably, seeing her crush in such a get up didn't have a positive effect on the poor girl.

"Ruby are you alright? You're a little red…" asked Jaune

"I'mfine…Let's just go….."Replied Ruby immediately.

The night was rather tranquil, the moon and stars shone brightly above all of Vale, a romantic sight to many. A jog wasn't what Ruby Rose imagined her first date/non-date to be, but to be able to spend time with your crush was more than what she expected from her weekend to turn out. Running with her crush for almost two hours gave her a blush brighter than her cloak, Jaune being the slower runner made Ruby stop often, however she didn't mind, after all it gave her time to stop and enjoy the view, the view of her blond knight.

"Whew…I think I've had enough for tonight"

"Huh…Oh…So should we head back?"

"Yeah, some rest does sound good, maybe a shower as well"

The words shower floated in the mind of Ruby, a wild fantasy appeared in her mind, until…

'Hey Ruby…you coming"

"Gah..what..Oh…coming."

"Yeah a jog."

"Why were you two jogging?"

"Well, I'm not the fastest person between all of us, so I just asked Ruby for help, and she suggested that we go on a jog, so we went on a jog." he answered sheepishly

Yang eyed at the Arc for a while, sensing that he was being honest, she decided to move on to the next question

"Alright then Arc..." Yang spat with a small taste of venom "Would you mind telling me what you were doing Ruby approximately seven days after your jog."

"Seven days after our jog….. Well the only interaction with Ruby for the entire day was when she asked me for milk."

"WHAT?" Bringing up Ember celica she aimed her gauntlets at the head of the boy

"YANG, milk and sugar as in the things used for cooking."

Calming down albeit slowly, she narrowed her eyes in suspicion and stared at the Arc.

"Well, ya see"

"Hey Jaune…do you have any sugar?" she asked nervously as she approached him at his dorm

"Yes please, won't you come and put it down on meeeeee" Sang Jaune off key.

Ruby laughed at his silly attempt at being suave. "Come on Jaune, I need some milk and sugar."

"What for?" he asked

"Well, I plan on making some cookies for someone…." said Ruby sheepishly.

"Oh…well I've got some milk here in the mini-fridge and I know that Ren has a secret stash of sugar somewhere.

As Jaune gathered the supplies for Ruby, the red huntress in training felt uncomfortable being in the same room with her crush, after all with two people being in the same room anything could happen.

"Hey ruby…You know if you need help with making cookies, I could teach you a recipe."

"REALLY?" Asked Ruby as her eyes lit up, maybe she could get to spend some more time with Jaune after all today

"Yeah"

"What are we waiting for, LET's Cook" Shouted Ruby grabbing Jaune's hand the duo rushed away into Beacon's kitchen.

Crashing through the doors of the kitchen, Ruby tripped and both of them fell on top of each other, with Ruby on top of Jaune, to be in such a compromising position made both of them blush madly, neither of them wanted to be caught in such a position, so naturally them got back up. However, a thought still lingered around the mind of our little Rose ' He's warm'

"Well…. I'm going to teach you how to make some chocolate chip cookies"

"Okay…" answered Ruby still slightly shaken

Over the course of the hour Jaune taught Ruby how to make a new recipe for chocolate chip cookies, if Ruby actually paid attention on, she might actually be able to recreate the cookies with equal success., however all she could do the entire time was stare at her crush once again. On the occasional moments she found herself listening, she fell into a fantasy involving her and Jaune once again.

"So where did you learn to make these?" asked Ruby tasting one.

"Well. My Mom would often teach me how to cook, she says that cooking is the way to capturing a woman's heart."

Ruby began to lose track the number of times she had blushed after hearing that.

"So you just taught my baby sister how to cook cookies."

"Yeah."Replied Jaune while nodding

"Nothing else."

"Yep"

Looking at the Arc closely for any clues if he was lying, she decided to move on to her next question.

"Well ARC, could you now please explain to me WHY DID YOU TAKE MY DEAR LITTLE SISTER ON A DATE?"

"Me, Ruby, on a Date?"

"Um…Jaune could I ask a favour of you?" asked Ruby awkwardly

"Um…sure"

"I ordered some High-explosive sniper rounds, the thing is I kinda need someone to help me carry the boxes, and the only place I can collect the rounds are on the other side of town"

"Rounds? How many exactly did you order?"asked Jaune skeptically

"Three…"

"Well that's not bad." sighed Jaune with relief

"Thousand and thirty- four rounds."

"Okay…That's a lot."

"If it's any trouble, I might be able to…"continued Ruby looking down slightly

"Abupupu..An Arc never turns down a person in need of assistance, I'll help you carry them."

"Wow…thanks."

The trip to Vale was filled with jokes between the two of them, mostly related to show called Blue V.s Red or Xray and Vav. Sweets bought from a Beacon tuck shop were shared between the two, to many onlookers it was a natural and romantic sight, two of Beacon's most socially- awkward out on a date, who didn't expect it?

The way back to Airship was nothing eventful, Jaune Carried all three thousand and thirty- four sniper rounds, while his 'date' enjoyed a bag of cookies happily, however if Jaune paid any attention to Ruby, he would have noticed the entire time that she was holding onto his arm.

On the ride back to Beacon, Ruby tired from the walking, decided to sleep finding Jaune's shoulder the closest thing to a pillow, she rested her head. Not wanting to disturb his 'date' from her rest he could only smile at the tranquil sight.

"So this is what it feels like to have a girlfriend" he thought to himself.

"Wait…not my girlfriend , just a friend that has similar interests and is socially awkward like me….and is also a girl."

Looking at the mirror in front of him, he saw a reflection of him with a girl resting on his shoulder.

"Well, we're nothing more than just friends. Right?"

"Oh No…"

At that moment Jaune Arc realized it, he himself was falling for Ruby Rose, no sane person would be so willing to help carry three thousand sniper rounds, or be her target practice on occasions which called for it, was it natural for his subconcious to help the person he liked? He was spending more time with her lately, so it was natural for him to think like this right? Ruby was his first friend here at Beacon, she was nice, she never judged him for his fighting, and even helped him with training to improve his agility. Maybe he was falling for her, afterall ever since she fell on top of him during their cooking session, he felt warm whenever he was with her.

"Hey Ruby wake up." Calling for her as the airship approached Beacon

"Wazixgoinon…Oh we're there." She replied while still snuggled on Jaune's shoulder.

"Um…Ruby could you get off of my shoulder please, I kinda need to collect your bullets at the luggage area."

"Huh" Realizing that she was sleeping on his shoulder, her face became red with embarrassment. "Sorry, Sorry, Sorry."

"It's okay."

"Yeah, it's not every day you that you fall asleep on the shoulder of your crush." She babbled on without realizing it.

On any other day Jaune Arc being the idiot that he is, he would've missed what Ruby just said, but this time he didn't.

"Yang, if this 'date' you're referring to is the time I went to Vale with Ruby and helped her receive an order of sniper rounds, I think you're mistaken." Stated Jaune bluntly

"Wait, sniper rounds?" asked Yang confused.

"Yeah sniper rounds."

Thinking back several weeks prior she did remember seeing Ruby back with several high-explosive sniper rounds and looking awfully chipper.

"Look Yang it's getting late, and I really want some sleep, so I'm just going to say this once, I have never seduced Ruby or even taken her out on a date." Said Jaune slightly tired and annoyed

Yang stared at the ocean blue eyes of his, trying to see if the boy was lying but there was no trace of anything wrong with his stories or throughout the interrogation.

She could only sigh

"Looks like you can count yourself lucky Arc, your story checks out."

"Whew, so now can I go back to sleep?" sighed Jaune in relief

"Not that easy Arc, to make sure you don't get any funny ideas with Ruby, I'll be having some fun with you." Said Yang with a mischievous grin.

Early in the morning Jaune decided to make his way up to the roof of the dorms, it was where he and pyrrha would normally train, however in the mornings it was the location of a secret rendezvous. Sitting on the edge of building

"Hey Jaune." Said a voice as it approached him, sitting right next to him

"Well a good morning to you too my little rose." He replied turning to face his girlfriend.

"So what happened last night?" asked Ruby

"Well your sister decided to interrogate me about us last night."

"Wow, when she said she had a talk with you, I didn't know that she would…Wait you didn't tell Yang about us did you?"

"Nope,hey relax…I'm alive right?"

"So does it still hurt?"

"Not anymore, Thank Monty for Aura"

"So I'm guessing you now know why I didn't want Yang or anyone else to know about us."

"Yeah..."said Jaune scratching the back of his head

"Come on, let's go the others are waiting for us." Said Ruby while getting up

As Ruby turned around, Jaune rushed forward and wrapped his arms around her.

"Gah…Jaune what are you…."

"Did I tell you that you look beautiful today."

Ruby blushed at the compliment and thought back to the time when both of them expressed their feelings for each other.

"Ruby did you just say that you had a crush on…." Asked Jaune

Realizing what she said, she turned a shade of red deeper than ever before, and did the only logical thing she could think of, she ran.

"Ruby Wait…" Yelled Jaune chasing after her.

The two raced away from the airship, Ruby had the upper had with her semblance of speed, sadly for her, her luck ran out, lost in thought with her accidental confession, she didn't notice the bench in front of her she crashed into it and tumbled, Giving time for Jaune to reach her.

"Ruby are you alright." Asked Jaune kneeling down to check on her.

"Um…Yeah" Answered Ruby nervously.

"Sooo…What was that about?"

"Oh it's nothing really." Answered Ruby trying to brush off the question.

"Come on Ruby, you can tell me" Pressed on Jaune while giving one of his traditional Arc looks

Giving in "well…You…see…IHaveACrushOnYou."

"You…have a crush on me." Repeated Jaune looking surprised.

"Look, let's just go get the rounds." Turning around and walking away embarrassed.

What Ruby didn't expect to hear was laughter coming from Jaune standing there.

"Jaune?"

"Do you know what's funny Ruby, on the airship, I began to realize that I had feelings for you."

"Wait you have…"

The both of them burst out laughing at the irony of the situation and how foolish they had been.

"So does this make us a couple?"

"I don't know? You're still my first."

"Wait a minute…The rounds"

Giving no time to waste he grabbed Ruby's had towards their ammunition, and the future that they would share.
