Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters, and I'm just writing about them because I long for them to be canon.


Ruby had broken her number one rule; never fall in love with a straight girl. But Ruby couldn't help it—who could? No matter how hard you try to avoid it love always finds it's way, and she really tried her best to avoid it. Yet every time Ruby saw her in the hallways her heart would race, and she would find herself staring at her long, snow white hair and sapphire eyes. It wasn't just anyone Ruby had fallen for though. Somehow she'd fallen for the most popular girl in school, Weiss Schnee. She was the daughter of the CEO of a multimillion dollar company, insanely beautiful, kind to everyone in school, and desired by practically every boy in town.

Ruby looked to her left. Weiss was standing there and talking to the other popular girls in their grade. Somehow she managed to get a near identical class schedule with Weiss, and Ruby wasn't sure if it was a blessing or a curse. It was a blessing, because she was always able to watch Weiss and look at her br—ahem—brilliant studying. It was also a curse, because of exactly that. No matter how much she longed for it Ruby would never have a chance of dating Weiss, so she sat in class mindlessly twirling her pencil, and dreaming about Weiss and cookies. Maybe even some Weiss cookies.

"Hey Ruby, whatcha thinkin' about?"

Snapping out of her fantasies Ruby looked up at who had spoken. Her closest and best friend Jaune Arc sat at the desk in front of her leaning forward and squinting. His light blonde hair that he had tried so hard to keep flat stuck up all over his head. "Hey Jaune!" Ruby chirped, with wide grin. "Just thinking about the usual."

"...chocolate chip cookies?" Jaune asked tentatively, as if he didn't already know he was right.

"Ding ding ding! Correctamundo." Ruby laughed.

"Why'd I even bother asking? I've known you since kindergarten and I'm nearly convinced that's all you think about."

"Hey, I think of other things sometimes," Ruby said with a pout. "The other day I was thinking of sugar cookies!"

He chuckled at her response, and then turned to see Weiss leaving the classroom. Waiting a few moments Jaune turned back to Ruby. "So?"

"'So' what?"

"Ruby, why not ask her out?" Jaune leaned forward. He was one of the few people aside from Ruby's sister, Yang, that knew about her sexuality, and the only one who knew about her ginormous crush on Weiss.

Ruby rolled her eyes. "Easy for you to say Jaune. You didn't even ask your own girlfriend out, and besides, wasn't she dating that guy? Cardin, uh, Windychesthair?"

"Winchester," Jaune corrected, "and no, I don't think they are."

"They did at one point though! She's straight and doesn't even know I exist, even though we have like the same schedule. I don't want her to think I'm some kind of creep just asking her to go out with me out of the blue like that."

He sighed. "I swear, you're such a kid sometimes. Stop making excuses and do it."

"These aren't excuses, they're facts!" Ruby whined, puffing her cheeks out.

"Okay, okay. I'll drop it." Jaune grinned at Ruby's behavior and glanced at his watch. It was a habit of his to glance at the beautifully forged piece of gold that was passed down to him by his great-great-grandfather. He sometimes wouldn't even be checking the time, but just glancing at it, as if to reassure himself that it was still there. This time he did seem to be checking the time though. "Well Ruby, I'd love to leave you to sit here to continue to list reasons why not to ask Weiss out, but I think your uncle will get annoyed if we hang out in his classroom too long. Besides, didn't Yang yell at you last time you got home late?"

Ruby nodded. "Yeah, let's head out. Angry Yang is not fun." Getting up and stretching, Ruby grabbed her backpack and walked out the door with Jaune. They walked down the long hallway, chatting about the latest math quiz and classroom hijinks. "Hey Jaune, won't Pyrrah be angry if you always walk home with me?" Ruby jested. She was referring to Jaune and her's long time friend and Jaune's now girlfriend.

"Sheesh Ruby, you're friends with her, too. She knows that we're just friends, and she knows I'm fully committed to her. I mean, why would I ever cheat on her?" Jaune rolled his eyes. "Plus, it's not like me and you would ever date, " He pointed out.

Ruby giggled. "True. Is she still at Track practice?"

"You bet. She's always training at javelin. Told me she's going to be making it to nationals this year, and I believe her. It's nice that she practices all the time, too, because she looks really good in her track uniform."

"You bet she does," Ruby said.

Jaune stopped and spun towards Ruby, giving her an accusatory look. "You better not be going after my girlfriend Ruby Rose!" There was a quiet moment where the two just glared at each other before breaking out into boisterous laughter.

"You… you had me for a moment there!" Ruby gasped between laughs. The duo's laughter began to subside, and when it completely stopped Ruby said, "Jaune, if Pyrrahs still at Track practice you should go wait for her and go home together. I'm sure she'd appreciate it, and I won't mind walking home alone."

"Are you sure?" Jaune's face practically dripped uncertainty.

"Positive. Without you I can get home twice as fast!"

Jaune punched Ruby's arm.

"Hey, hey! It was just a joke." Ruby apologized. They were standing by the track at this point. "So I'll be on my way now, seeya tomorrow Jauney boy!"

"Ugh, stop with the nickname. It's hard enough with your sister calling me that." Jaune groaned. He smiled he added, "Seeya tomorrow Ruby!" And with that Jaune was off running towards the field.

Ruby started off towards her house. She didn't live far from the school, and it was at least twenty minutes walking quickly. Despite it being spring the weather was still too cool to be comfortable. Without any reason to linger Ruby made her way home, entering through the front door with a loud thump announcing her arrival.

Yang walked out of the kitchen, spatula in hand. Her long and wild blonde hair was pulled back in a low ponytail; Yang didn't like getting hair in her food. "Woah, woah, woah. What is this little sis? You're actually home in time for supper?"

"Yup!" Ruby peeled off her bright red sweatshirt and ran upstairs to change into regular clothes. The school she went to was a private school, and would've been incredibly expensive if not for the entire cost being paid off by the school. Ruby had gotten near perfect scores on all of her final exams in tenth grade, which made the private school try to have her enrolled faster than she could say "chocolate chip cookies". Jaune managed to get in, too. Everyone in his family went to that school, and after failing the entrance exam two years in a row he was especially determined to pass now that Ruby was there. With his low grades Jaune had to study constantly for weeks, and Ruby helped him. She'd never seen anyone so happy to pass a test.

"Ruby! Suppers ready!"

It was only four o'clock, yet Yang was already making supper. She worked the night shift at a local bar, and her shift went from five PM to two AM. Yang made sure to make supper earlier so that even if Ruby wasn't home at the time she could warm it up and eat later. Yang usually pestered Ruby to come home in time for their early supper, because with Ruby being in school all day and Yang working at night, supper was the only time the two really got to talk aside from weekends. Ruby sat herself at the seat across from Yang at the table.

Yang grinned a toothy smile, "It tastes waaaaay better hot."

Ruby started eating, and Yang was right. It did taste a whole lot better straight off the stove. "Thanks Yang."

"No problem," Yang grinned, also digging into her own plate of food. "So how's school been? You get a girlfriend yet?"

Ruby instinctively thought of Weiss, but refrained from mentioning her. Knowing Yang she'd pester Ruby to ask her out just like Jaune does. "Nooope," Ruby said, popping her P, "Still single and lonely."

"You could always go out with your buddy Jauney."

Ruby shook her head, "Not only is he dating Pyrrah, but he's not a girl Yang."

"I could've sworn he was one when he was screaming during that zombie movie." Yang laughed, recalling the event. Jaune had been claiming that the zombie movie wouldn't scare him, yet he was the one who screamed and covered his eyes the entire time.

"Don't pick on Jaune when he isn't here to defend himself, Yang," Ruby ordered, then added quietly, "but he does scream like a girl."

The sisters laughed. They continued to chat until Yang looked at the time and nearly fell out of her seat. "What the hell! It's four fifty already!?" Yang scrambled to find her keys, and when she found them she ran towards the door shouting, "Bye Ruby! Don't use the oven while I'm gone! Actually wait! Turn the oven off, I made chocolate chip cookies and they should be done by now! But don't use the oven after that! Seeya, love you!" The door slammed, and Ruby heard the sound of Yang starting her motorcycle and speeding away. The sound quickly faded, and Ruby made her way to the oven.

Opening the door with a creak, Ruby peered inside. Almost instantly the house was filled with the sweet smell of cookies. Yang had made over a dozen, all perfectly oozing chocolate. Her mouth already watering, Ruby turned the oven off and pulled the cookies out. She grabbed a plate and glass from the cabinet, and placed them on the table. No chocolate chip cookies could be eaten without a cool glass of milk. Striding over to the fridge, Ruby pried it open and look inside. She glanced behind the orange juice. And behind a box of leftovers. And even behind a small bottle of ketchup. Ruby couldn't believe it.

They were out of milk.

Of all days to run out of milk it had to be the day Yang cooked her a feast of cookies. Ruby would have to either eat her cookies without milk, or make the long trip down to the convenience store. Ruby sighed, and began putting on her favorite black and red boots and red sweatshirt. She pocketed her cellphone and house keys before slipping outside into the cool air.

Ruby began speed walking towards the convenience store. She wasn't sure how much it would cost for a gallon of milk, so she ended up bringing nearly twenty dollars. The walk to the store was uneventful. Ruby barely paid any mind to her surroundings, as she was intent on making it to the store and back home before her cookies got too cold. At last the store was in sight. Ruby jogged the rest of the way over, entering through the automatic door. Her eyes scanned the rows of merchandise before landing on the gallons of milk nestled in the refrigerated section at the back. Bounding over, Ruby grabbed a gallon and turned to go to the cashier.

She didn't make it far though, because almost instantly Ruby bumped into someone who charged in front of her. She fell down onto her butt nearly dropping the milk, but catching it at the last second. The person she had bumped into, however, wasn't so lucky. The numerous items they had been carrying fell to the floor around them clattering down the aisles.

Despite it being the other person's fault for the fall, Ruby began helping to pick up the stranger's items repeating, "I'm so sorry."

"You better be." The stranger's tone was anything but apologetic and kind. It had a harsh bite to it, which made Ruby jump at the words. "If you had been paying attention you wouldn't have bumped into me. Do you know how much trouble you caused? Seriously, you're completely moronic."

Ruby looked up, trying to see what kind of person would get so upset over a simple mistake. What she saw left her dumbstruck. The one person she least expected sat on the ground in front of her. Weiss Schnee. She was trying to grab the items that had fallen everywhere around her, all the while belittling Ruby for the mistakes she supposedly made. Ruby stopped picking up items and just stared at Weiss. What was coming out of her mouth did not match her looks at all, and it was incredibly bizarre.

"Hello? Is anyone home?" Weiss narrowed her eyes and snatched at an item that was in Ruby's hand. "Are you brain-dead? Hand over my stuff."

Ruby didn't say anything. She stood up, her gallon of milk in one hand and Weiss's item in the other. Ruby slowly reached her hand out, and Weiss plucked it out of her hand. With a 'hmph' of indignation she proceeded to march over to the cashier, leaving a fifty dollar bill on the counter before storming out of the store.

Ruby stood there for a moment. She watched after Weiss, still in shock of what had just gone down. The kind and gentle Weiss that she had fallen in love with was nothing but a lie. This new revelation had Ruby stupefied, and it left a knot in her stomach. Ruby silently went and bought her milk. She made her way home and when she got there she immediately poured a glass of milk and ate a cookie. Yang always made delicious cookies, but not even the best baker in the world could make cookies taste good after an experience like that.
