AN: So, hi to all my followers, sorry this took so long. This chapter hasn't been beta'd but I did my best to at least find what errors I could. Hope you guys enjoy.

It was a peaceful Friday afternoon. Weiss had changed into a light blue sundress as Ruby had said something casual. Though compared to the others she wasn't the most prepared for casual occasions. Yang joked that they need to drag her out and make her buy casual clothes to wear for when they go into the city.

Ruby hadn't told her what they would be doing, just that it would be full of surprises. She was a little weary, since Ruby or Yang and surprises were not always two things you wanted in the same sentence. But she otherwise had faith in Ruby. She had been a little ahead of the time Ruby had told her, as it was still only two forty and Ruby had said three.

It had given her some time to just think about the past week. Only a few people had been surprised, all of them human, and compared to the entirety of Beacon, the numbers were not even worth mentioning. Ruby had definitely been right about people suspecting. Maybe not what kind of faunus, but they had all suspected she was a faunus. She wasn't entirely surprised after thinking about it logically. Her way of hiding was suspicious from day one, but she had still held onto a silly hope for so long. She looked down, observing the clear outline of her udder showing through her dress. She still thought it was ugly, but she'd started to learn that didn't mean everyone would be unwilling to be her friend because of it.

Team JNPR, of course, had been the first reassure her of that after the dance. And Jaune had apologized to her for his stubbornness yesterday. Apparently Yang had told him that what he had been doing could be considered harassment and how he needed to learn to take no as an answer. That explained why Yang had suddenly interfered with him the day Blake had stormed off. She had thanked Yang immensely last night for it. She was so glad he would no longer be pestering her. And maybe he'd finally notice Pyrrha. The poor girl really shouldn't wait so long on the incredibly dense boy.

She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Ruby's slightly nervous voice calling her. "Have you been waiting long Weiss? I said three the other day, right?" Weiss nodded quickly standing up to face the girl. She was wearing shorts and a red t-shirt, and surprisingly, no cape. It was strange seeing her without it on a casual outing. It made sense at the dance. Was she trying to look more mature for the date?

"It's fine, I just came a little early and took the extra time to think. Well, let's get going. The next ship leaves in a few minutes." They both headed onto the next ship heading into Vale and sat next to each other. So Weiss decided to try and get Ruby to say something about what she had planned. "So what exactly is it you have planned for this date Ruby?"

Ruby just shrugged and smiled. "It's a surprise, but I'll tell you this, it involves a lot of chance." She pulled out a penny. "We're gonna let a coin toss decide what we do within reason."

Weiss just stared at her, at a loss for words for how silly and possibly disastrous that plan could be. "Are you serious?" And she just got a nod in response. She sighed. Well, maybe luck would be kind to her, for once, in her life. Though, thinking about luck made her briefly remember when she had been put on team RWBY. She had cursed her luck then, yet here she was, on a date with her team leader who she had very clearly disliked if not resented at first. Maybe her luck wasn't as bad as she thought.

After the short trip, they got off the ship and walked out to the city. She looked to Ruby to see how this was gonna was going to work.

And thankfully she went ahead and explained it. "Alright Weiss, heads, we go left. Tails, we go right. Heads will be yes and tails will be no. Simple enough?" Weiss nodded, accepting that explanation. Ruby smiled and flipped the coin into the air, and caught it by pressing it flat against the top of her right hand. "And it looks like heads first. Left it is." Ruby started walking down the sidewalk going left and Weiss followed right alongside her.

The first public institution they reached was an arcade. She only knew that because of how Ruby and Yang played games and talked about such things. She watched Ruby flip the coin and look a little disappointed when it landed on tails.

She didn't like that look on her face. "Maybe next time Ruby." Her face taking a slight red tinge when she realized the implication behind her words. "If this goes well, of course." It made Ruby smile though, clearly excited by the prospect. And so they continued walking, a few doors down, they came upon a book store. This time Ruby got heads, so they went in.

She looked around the store, not sure what to do. She, hadn't actually read much outside of studying. She was never given the chance back in Atlas, and between studying, training and her team's shenanigans, she really had no reason to. So when Ruby asked her a question, she didn't really have an answer.

"What kind of books do you like to read Weiss?"

She hesitated, not sure whether to be totally honest or not. She just decided there was no reason to hide it. "I, haven't read much outside of studying Ruby, so I don't really know." She didn't expect the shocked look on Ruby's face, which then turned into a small frown, before quickly turning into a grin. "Then you should totally try reading some of Blake's comics sometime. There's some really cool stuff in those."

"Aren't comics for kids?" That made Ruby pout, which made her look absolutely adorable. Weiss had to hold back a giggle, she didn't want to hurt the girl's feelings after all.

"They are not Weiss. They can be for people of all ages. You see Blake reading them all the time. Especially the ninjas of love ones. Though those are filth." Ruby's face went red recalling whatever was in those books.

Weiss just nodded. "Okay, okay, I get it. I'm sorry if I offended you Ruby, but you are adorable when you pout. Shall we see if we can find something to read?" Ruby nodded vigorously and led Weiss around the store for the next half hour or so, pointing out her favorites, some books about fairy tales, and even picking a couple books up. It was nice to see Ruby excited about something not involving slaying grimm or working on her scythe. Maybe she'd give reading these books a chance if she found the time.

They left after Ruby purchased the books she had picked up. And they continued until they hit another road, flipping tails and heading right this time This time they passed by a bar and both voted against even considering it. A few more turns and coin flips later, they found themselves in front of a theater. The coin landed on heads so they were trying to decide on a movie.

Ruby suggested a romance movie and she just followed along, maybe it'd be better than those movies she had seen Ruby and Yang watching occasionally. Always full of fighting and explosions. There seemed to be no class in those movies. She paid for the tickets and appeased Ruby's request for snacks by buying a cookie for her. It was huge, but she was sure she'd finish it in time. It was still better than that butter drenched popcorn. Telling Ruby there'd be no hand holding or touching if she had it had dissuaded her well enough.

The movie was apparently focused on a human female burn victim and a male deer faunus falling for each other. Though the woman didn't seem to think she was good enough, because of her horribly marred skin. But the man still cared, seeing past it for the woman. She would never admit it, but she was tearing up by the end, relating to it somewhat. Ruby had taken her hand at some point during the movie and was drawing circles with her thumb, it was soothing. The two in the movie got married in the end, after the woman had been disowned by her racist father, her mother had died in the fire that had damaged her body. The movie struck a little too close to home for her so she leaned into Ruby seeking comfort and trying not to cry at a movie.

After it ended, Ruby just sat there, having switched which hand she had on Weiss's and running her other hand through Weiss's hair, helping her calm down. Once she felt better, they got up and headed out. Once outside, she mumbled, thankfully being heard by Ruby as they were standing much closer than earlier. "You will not tell Yang or Blake about this." She could only imagine the teasing if Yang found out she was a sap for sad romantic stories.

Ruby giggled and nodded at her. "Of course. Yang will never know."

Weiss nodded, satisfied with that answer. "Well, let's keep going. This has gone, surprisingly well, so far." She smiled at Ruby and took her hand. She started walking with her, continuing on their way. About half an hour later they came upon a pizza place and Ruby decided it was time to get something to eat, and the coin landed on heads. They were soon sat down at a table for two by a waitress and asked what kind of pizza they wanted. Ruby asked for pepperoni pizza while Weiss asked for veggie pizza after reading the menu. They'd split a large pizza, half and half.

Once the waitress left, Ruby looked at her curiously. "Weiss, I've recently noticed after thinking about it, you really like your salads and similar stuff. Is it bec-"

Weiss glared at her, cutting her off. "Ruby Rose, don't you dare finish that question." She huffed and swore she heard Ruby mumble something about Blake and Tuna under her breath. Even if she hadn't she was sure that was where Ruby was going with it. It was just a coincidence, she preferred vegetables and fruit over meat. It had nothing to do with her being a cow faunus. That was what she had convinced herself of anyway.

They just chatted about the week as they waited for the pizza. Just their usual routine by this point. Making sure Ruby hadn't goofed off too much, making sure she was always on top of her work. And helping her when needed.

After a while, the waitress came back with the pizza and some drinks, water for her and milk for Ruby. When she saw the milk, combined with Ruby's earlier question, she looked down, her face slightly red as she took a slice of pizza. She had a feeling Ruby might ask to try her milk at some point if they ended up becoming girlfriends officially after this date. And she knew she'd probably agree after this. She was having a lot of fun, trying new things. She cut her pizza with a knife and ate it with a fork, which made Ruby giggle. She looked up, having gotten over her brief awkward thoughts. "What's so funny?"

"How you're eating the pizza, it seems a little too fancy for pizza." She was eating it by folding it and holding with her hands while she took bites out of it. Weiss just huffed at that. "Unlike you I'd rather not get my hands dirty eating my food." She was enjoying the pizza. It was surprisingly good. She might ask for some the next time the sisters ordered out for it. "This is good Ruby. I've never had pizza before today."

Ruby grinned at that. "Everyone loves pizza. It is the best food ever. I'm glad we ended up at a pizza place. I can't believe you've never had it before. We should have team outings where one person decides what we're all gonna go try for dinner that night." Ruby seemed thrilled with her idea and Weiss nodded.

"That definitely sounds interesting, though I guarantee you Blake picks a place with seafood." She giggled as did Ruby. It wasn't an issue as Blake had accepted the friendly joking when she found out it got her Tuna more often. Even if she wasn't here, they wouldn't joke about their friends negatively behind their backs.

Once they finished, they headed out, Weiss paying the bill and leaving a generous tip. "So, one more place before we head back?" Ruby nodded. "Yeah, we don't want to miss the airship and have to find a room in Vale somewhere." She had almost forgotten the last one on Friday was at eight thirty and it was a little after 6 thirty now. And it'd probably take a bit for them to walk back.

And so they continued onward to find one last destination. Which ended up being an Ice cream place, much to Ruby's joy when the coin landed on heads, and Weiss's amusement as her date jumped around, her excitement contagious. They ended up getting a large bowl of chocolate and vanilla ice cream and split it. She paid for it and they went to a small table and sat next to each other. She took her time tasting it and enjoying it. Ruby was digging right in and she just smiled, amused. She'd probably end up teasing her later about eating too much.

As they were finishing up, she saw a bit of chocolate on Ruby's cheek and had a bold idea. She managed to keep from blushing as she shifted her chair a little close so she was right next to Ruby. "Hey Ruby, you have a little on your cheek, let me get it for you." She leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, licking the small bit off and pulling away. Her cheeks were burning at her action but she could see as Ruby turned to face her that she had gone as red as her namesake. "Th-thank you." She looked even more adorable when embarrassed and she resisted the urge to hug her right there. She wasn't sure she could resist more displays of affection if she did. "You're welcome." She smirked a little, proud of the result.

They headed out, holding hands. Ruby watching the ground as her face was still noticeably red. It took them about forty minutes to walk back, and they arrived with half an hour to spare. So they sat and just cooled off, relaxing and leaning against each other. "This was very enjoyable Ruby. I admit, I had my doubts when you first mentioned your idea."

Ruby just blushed lightly and had a bright smile on her face. "Thanks Weiss, I was worried too, to be honest. But I'm glad I stuck to it." And they just stayed quiet after that, enjoying the mostly quiet atmosphere at the docks, the sun having set a little while ago. Once they were allowed to board, they did so and found a comfortable spot to sit together before it brought them back to Beacon.

After they arrived back, they walked until they were in front of the fountain. Weiss took Ruby's hands and looked her in the eyes. "Ruby, I really enjoyed our date tonight. I'm really glad I said yes to your request. You're great friend, and I think you'll be a great girlfriend too." She blushed, but stood firm, a small but genuine smile on her face.

Ruby took a moment to take it all in before she teared up and had the biggest grin on her face. "Really! Oh I'm so happy to hear you say that Weiss!" And she proceeded to pull her into a tight hug before pulling back slightly and looking at her.

Their faces now millimeters apart, Weiss blushed, but leaned in and closed her eyes, Ruby doing the same and they kissed. Weiss' body shivered as she felt Ruby's soft lips against hers and prolonged it, enjoying the sensation. Ruby ended up caving first, gasping for air a bit. She hadn't realized how long they had been kissing. She guessed having singing experience had strengthened her lungs.

Weiss blushed a bit and smiled shyly "We should do that often. It was...nice." She made a small sound of content before pulling out of the hug and keeping her hold on Ruby's right hand.

Ruby just nodded, a similar smile and red tint on her face. "I'd really enjoy that. Though we probably should be careful of Yang. She might get really protective."

Weiss nodded at that. "Yes, we should probably get back before she wonders what's taking us so long." They walked back to the dorms together, hand in hand.
