"Hey, Ruby!" A male voice called out of the house. Footsteps with a faint 'coming' was heard till a person named Ruby arrived.

"Yes Dad?" Ruby asked while sewing her hoodie,almost finished.

"Can you go to the store and buy the groceries? Cause I'll pick up Ailee to school while checking on her partner Jawhead at Layla's place." His dad requested to which,Ruby didn't refuse and wore her usual hoodie.

She walked to the marketplace,checking the list of the groceries.

"This isn't too bad." She then picked up a bunch of stuffs,double-checking each groceries on the list—so she won't be confuse or probably repeat on what she bought like last time.

——————————

"Done,now time to go home." Ruby cheered at herself for accomplishing her work,grabbing for like 4 bags of groceries and getting ready to walk home.

While Ruby is walking,a hand suddenly grabbed unto her arm and was dragged into the dark-side of an alleyway. Before she could fight and ran away,she felt something pressed against her lips. Processing on what was happening,the weight on her lips was now gone. Despite the alleyway having only little light,she knew who is her captor.

"And what are you doing here,You thief?" Ruby asked with a tone of annoyance,becoming more annoyed when the person just played with her hair while having that playful smirk.

"Was just passing by and saw a very Rare and priceless Jewell~walking around this time and place~" He answered,still playing with her hair as his other hand was placed on the wall beside her.

"Ahaha..Funny joke. Can you just let me go so I can go home and bring this groceries. I'm in a hurry." Ruby glared at the 'thief' and was even ready to beat the life out of him...Though,she'd rather run,cause the groceries are very important at the moment.

"Can I get a kiss first~?" He asked with a kissy face.

"Not in the mood for your flirtatious moves Claude,I just wanted to bring this groceries home and chill at the house." Ruby answered,rolling her 'eye'—cause she's wearing her eyepatch.

"Boo~You're no fun~" Claude playfully pouted,though a smirk was quickly exchanged.

"Though,you being so Sassy,Bossy and angry is just so cute and Hot at the same time~ I wanted to capture this moment into the software of my head...Dut,Dut,Dut..Done~ Saved." Claude said while playfully doing some typing moves on his head,acting like one of those Cyborgs who got a new data file saved. Ruby couldn't help but laugh a little but successfully did not show it.

"Weirdo,I'm going now." Ruby said with a blank expression,just as she was about to take a first step. Two hands immediately slammed on the wall,she flinched while looking at the person infront of her...looking all serious. She was a little bit scared and surprised at the sudden change and move,although,she didn't show it.

"And what makes you think I'll let you off~ My precious little gem~" The man infront of her said while inching his face close to hers.

"W-wha—Hmmph!" Before Ruby could react nor speak,he immediately kissed her—Ravishing her lips like a hungry alpha wolf who's devouring a delicious buffet. Ruby tried to get away,though her hands were bound by his one hand while the other one lifted her body. She even tried to kick him,only for him to press his body against her—like flattening a pancake,a very delicious and fluffy one too.Luckily,she still held unto the groceries so they won't fall and break.

Before Ruby could bite his lips,he suddenly pulled away—still having that serious face,making her gulp a little. Unfortunately for her,Claude took noticed of this and was really enjoying this side of hers. It also didn't help when he's giving her butterfly kisses on her neck.

"I really miss you Ruby." He started to speak with a sudden tone of seriousness,even placing a quick kiss on her lips to show that his affection is true.

"I-Is that so,then..How are you and the others?" Ruby asked,removing her fear while accepting the affection her partner is giving.

"Doing well,Except for the moment of me Stopping Kimmy and X.borg from ripping each other's throat for simple things and a Hair gel." Both of them laughed,since it wasn't the first time it happened—Plus,Claude was the one suffering since they are roommates.

"Did they bruise your face?" Ruby asked.

"Nope,Cause I got good reflexes." Claude answered proudly.

"Darn,I was expecting a bruise. Especially since I can't see much on this dark alleyway." Ruby commented,loud enough for him hear.

"Hey! Why you little—!" Feeling offended,Claude placed his face around Ruby's collarbone..giving it a bunch of butterfly kisses again,going down and up to her neck—even going for the back of her ear. Ruby giggled as it tickles, gently placed down the groceries on the ground with the help of her partner who hoisted her below a little to safely drop them—her hands are still bound but she couldn't care less anymore.

Once Claude released her hands,he immediately wrapped his hands around her tiny slim waist,pulling her close while lifting her up again. Ruby's chance of escaping and running changed, that she wrapped her hands around his neck,giving out small moans and whimpers when Claude would attack her very sensitive spots. Once he pulled away,their gazes met...Their lips inching close against each other till they could feel the warmth of each other's lips—making out.

Ruby suddenly pulled away,making Claude pout for the lost of her lips.

"Where's Dexter? He's usually around with you." She asked,Claude made an 'Oh'.

"Don't worry about him,I told him to buy himself some snacks since he kept persisting for me to buy. Plus,I don't want him to ruin my little snack time~" He patted Ruby's back,making her blush.

"Hey! I may be little but,I'm still growing." This time,she pouted..though because of her baby face,it made her look like a child having a tantrum—a cute child that is.

"Aww~Don't be like that,I love my wittle~Gem. Cause she's so cute,makes me want to keep it. Plus,you're literally 16 but it makes you look like a middle schooler. A cute one though,I might be even called a pedophile if they saw us together." Both of them laughed while they gave each other a quick kiss on the lips.

(From Claude's story..It is said that he's a teen. So He's 18 in this one-shot while Ruby's 16)

"Anyways,How about I repay you by holding your groceries? Since I'm already full,thanks for the meal." Claude gave a wink at her,making her look like a tomato at the moment.

"J-Just..Shut u-up and put me down so you can hold the groceries plus,Dad might be home already. And,how could you be full just by a bunch of kisses?..Weirdo." Claude just laughed as he gently placed her down and grabbed the groceries, both of them walked out of the dark alleyway. Just in time too for Dexter to make an entrance and immediately tackled Ruby in a hug with great joy,Ruby was in 'aww' as she stroke the monkey's head with great affection.

"Looks like Dexter's already here." Claude only nodded his head. They continued on walking till they reached the maiden's home.

——————————

"Guess this is Goodbye then. I'm kinda occupied for today since I need to take care of Alice." Ruby said while taking the back groceries from Claude's hands.

"Yeah,Bummer. Was thinking on taking you on a date night,at least." Dexter made sad monkey noises while not wanting to let go off Ruby.

"Sorry Dexter,Next time. When I'm free,I'll visit and even cook you your favourite dish,sounds good?" This time,Dexter made happy monkey noises—just as he was about to leave her,he gave her a quick peck on the lips which shock both Claude and Ruby.

Once they depart,they gave each other one last kiss since Claude became jealous for some reason..when he actually got a bunch of kisses,with Dexter only one.

———Extra Scene——

"I'm home." Ruby said while removing her shoes as she got inside,closing the door and headed straight to the kitchen.

"Welcome Home Big Sis!" A cheerful voice responded back,running towards her and hugged her leg. Ruby giggled as she carried that person,giving a big hug,

"How was your day at school,Ailee? How about your stay at Layla's place? How's Jawhead doing? And where's dad?" Ruby asked her little sister and gave her a quick peck on each of her cheeks,she only giggled and continued hugged to her.

"School is wonderful,I love my friends..especially Harley,Nana,Harith,Lylia,Barats,Popol,Change and many more! Layla's place was cool like she is and Jawhead's doing fine,they're still fixing for his upgrades. Also,Dad's on his garage with his friend working on weapons and stuffs." Ruby made an 'oh',as she placed Ailee down while opening the groceries.

"Thank you for the information,Now..How about you take this reward as I placed this groceries,Sounds good?" Ruby said while giving Ailee a little bag of sweets,her eye's shined and greatly took it...even giving Ruby another hug.

"THANK YOU SO MUCH BIG SIS! YOU'RE THE BEST!" Ailee squealed and quickly ran to her room with the sweets.

"Just make sure to drink water after that Ailee." Ruby yelled,she could hear faint 'Yes Big sis' that made her chuckle before fixing the groceries.

After she was done,she decided to see her Dad Roger,at his garage. Opening the garage door,she saw his dad with a companion.

"Hey dad and Uncle Terry!" Ruby greeted while waving her hand,the two who were talking had there attention at the greeting of the girl.

"Hello Ruby,how are you doing? Did you finish taking out the groceries?" Roger asked while subbing his cigar on an ashtray,his companion just waved as a greeting.

"I'm done,Just wanted to see if you guys are making a new upgrade on some weapons." The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Well you are in luck Dearest Daughter,cause Terizla and I were talking about the upgrade on your scythe." Roger gave a big laugh,placing back the cigar on his mouth and breathing out smoke. Ruby's eye suddenly shined.

"Eh?! Really?! Cool! Thanks so much Dad and Uncle Terry." She ran to give them both a hug,the two were in 'aww' and gave her a pat on the head. That's when it happened,Roger's expression turned 180 degrees.

"Ruby.." Roger said with an unusual tone of his voice. Ruby looked to see his father smiling but not a pleasant one that it made her gulp down,Terizla was curious on why is his friend is being so uncharacteristic.

"Y-yes..Dad?" Ruby asked. The only answer that Roger gave,was pointing unto something on her neck.

"Is that a Hickey? And who gave you that? Don't even dare lie." Roger full on commanded,making Ruby check and curse at Claude for the obvious hickeys that can be seen. She also didn't have a choice since she was planning on telling him,like today.

"Uhh..Y-Yeah..I h-have a boyfriend..." She answered truthfully.

"Oh..And you didn't tell me?"

"I was planning too...Like now,I'm sorry."

"Hmm..That's ok. So how long have you been together?" This time Terizla chimed in the conversation.

"Umm..For about 2 months.." Ruby answered his question.

They started to ask more questions,about his life,is he treating her well and so much more. Only to ask one last question by Roger.

"What's his name?" He asked.

"Uh...C-Claude.." She answered.

"..." Silence soon filled the room and the only thing his father responded,was the sound click of his Gun.

"Terizla,We are going on a Man Hunt today. Ruby you go back and accompany Ailee,ok?" And with that,the two males left...leaving Ruby alone with a confuse thought.

"What?" She said but didn't think much of it and went out of the garage,back in their house.

———————————

"AHHHHHHHH!" A scream of a male voice was heard while seeing running away to something or better yet,Someone.

"You really are a 'Thief'! HOW DARE YOU DATE MY DAUGHTER!?!" Roger yelled out while shooting unlimited of bullets,non-stop.

"Y-Your Daughter?" Claude asked but immediately knew who he was referring too.

"Oh Shit.." He kept running,while defending himself from the attacks of both Roger and Terizla,who almost got killed by his hammer.

"'Oh shit' is right,you damn thief! Out of all the people in the world,my daughter chose you!" He then turned into a werewolf,making Claude gulp in fear. Dexter wasn't helping either,he's just too busy taunting his partner's suffering.

Roger quickly used his dash skill to catch up,even readied his claws to strike the thief,though missed when Claude used his second skill and continued to flee for his life. And that is the story of The Little Red Riding Hood,who fell for a Thief that's being chased down by A Father werewolf and an Uncle Blacksmith.

***End Of Chapter***
