Ruby couldn't sleep. No matter what she did, all she could do was lie there and think.

"I wonder what everybody's dreaming about." She glanced over at her sister, who was fast asleep. She looked so peaceful.

Then she looked down towards Blake. Over the past few months, she had begun to grow quite fond of the cat faunus. She was quiet, and yet, at the same time caring. Ruby thought of her as another sister.

Then she looked down towards Weiss. "She looks so cu-. Wait! No! I shouldn't think like that. She's my partner." But still she couldn't help but get the feeling of longing that she so often felt. "Why do I feel this way? I should just sleep it off and talk to her tomorrow…" And with that, Ruby closed her eyes to no avail. She decided that she needed to talk to somebody.

As she was about to reach for the doorknob, to her own dismay, she heard a voice from behind her. "And just where do you think you're going? You do know that we have class in six hours right?" asked Weiss demandingly. "Explain yourself immediately."

"Ummm...um...uh….I was just going to get a drink!" the nervousness clearly showing on her face.

"Sure you are," said Weiss sarcastically. "Well if that's the case, then I guess I'll accompany you."

"W-What?" asked Ruby.

"Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about something anyway."

"Like what?"

"Come on." And with that, Weiss grabbed ruby's hand and ran with her off towards the cafeteria. A blush began to creep across Ruby's face at the thought of Weiss holding her hand.

As they reached the cafeteria, it was exactly 3:30 in the morning. They walked up to the counter each ordered a cup of coffee. Ruby ordering her usual, coffee with cream and five sugars. Weiss ordered hers also with cream, but not taking it as sweet as her younger counterpart, only getting two sugars. They then made their way to one of the many tables and sat across from each other.

Ruby was the first to break the silence. "So what was it that you wanted to talk to me about?"

"Well, Yang has been telling me about how your grades have been dropping slightly, soooo I was wondering if you might be willing to accept some help," said Weiss, praying Ruby would say yes. She had secretly been attracted to Ruby for quite some time now and this was the perfect opportunity for her to make a move. "All it will take will be for Ruby to accept my help and I'll sugar her up to the idea over time. Hopefully, I can convince her…"

"Go figure. Yang couldn't keep even the smallest secret. I'll have to have a loooong chat with her later, but what about Weiss? I can't just outright deny her help. That'd make me seem rude or ignorant. Besides, I guess it wouldn't hurt to get help from the smartest girl in class!" "Well… If you think it could help, then yeah we can study together after class today," the excitement, and a slight blush, showing on Ruby's face.

"Is she… Blushing?!"

Ruby mistook Weiss's surprised expression for one of disgust and immediately covered her head with her hood. "Oh no! Did she see me blush? Oh no? Oh, crap? What do I do? What do I do?"

She was suddenly surprised by a hand on hers. "There's no reason to be embarrassed Ruby. Everybody needs a little push from time to time." Ruby turned her head only to be face to face with Weiss. She blushed even more as Weiss wrapped her in an albeit friendly, yet caring hug. "Now, have you finished your coffee?" she said as she grudgingly parted from her younger partner.

"Y-Yeah. Why? What did you have in mind?"

"Well, seeing as we still have five hours until class starts, I was thinking we should go back to the dorm and get some much-needed rest."

"Yeah, you're probably right." As they made their way back to their dorm, they didn't talk much. Both reflecting on the events that had transpired. Ruby was ecstatic to have more time to spend with Weiss. "I mean how exactly did this even happen? One minute I'm thinking about how cu-... Damnit! There I go again! Why do my thoughts always seem to come back to that anymore?! I mean she is pretty, but I've never even thought about anyone that way; let alone a girl. Then again, I can't help but feel all giddy inside when I'm around her. I can't wait until this afternoon!" She couldn't help but smile.

Weiss's thoughts, however, were focussed on something a bit different. "Why couldn't I ask her? It was a perfect time and I blew it. What if she was wanting me to? Is she upset with me?" She quickly glanced over at her younger teammate and realized that Ruby was smiling. "That's good. At least she seems happy. Her innocence is one of the things I find truly enticing about her. Not to mention the fact that she's extremely cute. I'll just have to ask her when the time is right." And with that thought sealed in her mind, they reached their dorm. They went to their respective beds and laid down.

"Goodnight Ruby."

"Goodnight Weiss."

Half an hour passed and Ruby still couldn't get any sleep. Her thoughts began to drift towards that place she knew all too well. "If only I knew how to make Weiss notice me… You know what? I wish I could crawl into bed with her and sleep in her arms. You know what? I'm going to try it."

"Weiss, are you awake?"

"Yes Ruby, I am. Why?"

"Well, I was just thinking… That it might be easier it might be easier to sleep if we had someone to sleep next to." her face beginning to become warm from a blush.

Weiss was instantly the shade of Ruby's cloak. "W-What? What are you suggesting?" said Weiss, trying her best not to sound too eager.

"Well, I was wondering if, just for the night, we could lay together in the same bed? I hear that cuddling makes it easier to fall asleep, and as neither of us has anyone to cuddle with maybe you and I could…"

"F-Fine. Get down here you dolt, but don't try anything else." Weiss said, trying to sound as distant as possible, even though on the inside, she wanted nothing more than to hold Ruby in her arms and never let go.

"I won't I promise!" Ruby didn't care that her eagerness showed. She was getting to share a bed with the person whom she had wanted to be with for quite some time. She climbed down from her bed above Weiss's and crawled under the sheets of the heiress.

"And just what do you think will come of this?" Weiss asked, trying to since Ruby's intentions.

"Well, I just thought that it would benefit the both of us. Neither of us has someone to embrace, and I often get quite lonely. I had a feeling that you do too. Am I wrong?"

"No. You're not wrong. Of course, I get lonely, but I have no way of dealing with that. Everybody thinks I'm cold and heartless. In fact, I don't have many friends outside of Teams RWBY and JNPR."

"Well, then we both need this. We're teammates. That means we help each other in their time of need, and it just so happens, we both need somebody to hold. May I?"

"May you what?" said Weiss, somewhat nervous, yet also excited.

"Do this." And with that, Ruby wrapped her arms around Weiss's waist and pulled her close.

A blush started creeping across Weiss's face. "Yes, you may. Did you really have to even ask that question?"

"Yes, because I respect you, Weiss. Everything I do, I think 'What would Weiss do' first."

Weiss turned to face her. "That's really sweet of you Ruby. I didn't know that you felt that way about me."

"Of course, I do! Others might not see you this way, but when I look at you, I don't see a cold, hateful, distant 'ice queen', I see a loving, thoughtful, smart, beautiful snow princess.

"Y-You think I'm b-beautiful?"

"Well duh! You're gorgeous." Ruby asked, giving a small compliment. "But enough talking. We should probably try to get some sleep. That is if you still want to cuddle…" she inquired, somewhat hopeful.

"Of course, I do you dolt! You're probably right, though. We should probably get some sleep…" her last sentence drawn out by a big yawn. With that, Weiss, too, wrapped her arms around Ruby and faded off to sleep.

"Ssshhh. Don't be so loud. You'll wake them up."

"But they're so cute!" said Yang, just a little too loud.

Ruby and Weiss started to stir. Ruby was the first to open her eyes. She lay there and looked caringly in her teammate's eyes. "Ngh… Good morning Ruby." Then she realized Yang looming over them. "And what exactly are you looking at, Yang?"

"What do you think Ice Queen? What are you and Ruby doing in the same bed?"

Ruby was the first to find her voice. "Well, during the night, I had a nightmare, so I asked if I could climb into bed with her." She got a look from Weiss. She wasn't ungrateful about the cover-up, but how could Ruby use such a childish excuse.

"Y-Yeah. That's what happened"

"Then why, pray tell, are you guys wrapped in each other's arms? If I didn't know any better, I'd say you two were dating."

"What? No. It's exactly as I said. I'm going to change!" and with that, Ruby went into the restroom.

"We should get JNPR and all get breakfast before class." said Blake, trying to take the attention off of Weiss.

"That sounds like a great idea!" said Weiss. She sent a look of silent thanks towards Blake.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Ruby stepped out of the bathroom only to get pulled by her sister and out into the hall. Yang knocked on JNPR's door and was greeted by Pyrrha.

"Hello, Yang. Ruby. What brings you here this fine morning?"

"Well, we were wondering if you all wanted to go get breakfast with us."

"As it just so happens, I was just getting ready to go get you guys. Ren made pancakes for us all and I wanted to see if you guys would join us."

"Sounds awesome." Yang was the first to enter the room, followed by the rest of her team.

"Hey Jaune, can I talk to you about something in the hall for a minute?"

"Uh…sure Ruby." The two stepped into the hallway, making sure the door was closed behind them. "So what was it you needed to talk to me about?"

"Well, it's about something that happened last night… I kind of fell asleep with Weiss."

"W-What do you mean?"

"She and I got a coffee at about 3 A.M. this morning. We sat and talked for a while, and when we came back to the dorm, I convinced her to let me sleep with her…"

"Why did you want to tell me?"

"Well, I need your help with something." A blush began to creep across her face.

"What do you need help with?"

"I need your advice. I really like Weiss, but I have no idea how she feels about me. What if she doesn't feel the same way about me? I've never even gone on a date. Let alone ask someone out. What do I do Jaune? Please help me." Ruby said with tears welling in her eyes.

"Calm down Ruby it'll be alright. If you feel this strongly about her, then you should definitely ask her, but I would suggest that you wait until you can get her alone."

"Right. So you seriously think I should ask her? What if she says no? What would happen to our friendship? What if she hates me?"

"Ruby calm down. Even if she does say no, which I doubt she will, there's no way that she would hate you. You two are best friends. Just take it into consideration. Is that all you needed?"

"Yeah. Now we should probably get back before Nora eats all the syrup again."

"Hey, Jaune?"

"Yes, Ruby?"

"Thanks for the advice."

"Anytime." And with that, they returned to the room and to eat their breakfast.

"So Ren, when are you and Nora going to go on a date?" Yang said, trying to get a reaction, which she did. Nora blushed really bad and Ren couldn't stifle a blush himself.

"W-We're not together together. Right Ren?"

"Well… I have been meaning to talk to you, and I guess now's as good a time as any."

"W-What do you mean?" Nora had now turned an entirely new shade of red.

"Well, I was actually wondering if you would like to accompany me to dinner and a movie this Friday."

"L-Like a date?"

"Yes, Nora a date."

"Yes! Yes! Oh my God yes! I've been waiting for you to ask me for years!" With that, Nora threw her arms around Ren and wouldn't let go.

"Congratulations guys!"

"Finally!"

"I was wondering when you guys would get together."

"It's about time."

"Umm… Guys? It's 8:50. We should probably get going."

"Yeah see you later." And with that, they said their goodbyes and headed off to class.
