Blake's POV:

I went to look for (Y/n) after he met with his father. I'm worried when I saw his nose bleed. I reached his room and knocked it three times. The door opened and revealed Erik.

Erik: "Oh hey Blake. What's up?" He asked

Blake: "Hey. I'm looking for (Y/n). Is he in the room?"

Erik: "For a short period of time. But after he cleaned the blood, he left the room. I think you can find him at the statue near the fountain."

Blake: "Oh, okay. Thanks Erik. See ya again."

Erik: "Most welcome. And take care of (Y/n) for me hehehe" and then, he closed the door. I shook my head because of his tease and walked to the statue that he said before. I saw him sitting on the plinth of the statue and, smoking? Well, I never thought that he's smoking. But nevermind. I walked to him, trying not to suprise him. As I reached near him, I spoke.

Blake: "I don't know that you are a smoker."

(Y/n)'s POV:

I was sitting on the plinth of the statue trying to calm myself. I pulled out a cigarrete and light it up. I took a deep inhale and exhale the thick grey smoke. I've been smoking since the incident which Tenzou, Danny and Izmash were killed in action.

??? : "I don't know that you are a smoker." Immediantly, I threw away the cigarette and looked over my shoulder. It was Blake.

(Y/n): "Oh hey there, Blake. How long you're standing behind me?" I asked.

Blake: "Just now, and I don't mind if you smoke...." I relieved a bit after she said that. "Mind if I sit with you?" I just shook my head and she sat down next to me. "Are you allright?" I just nodded. "I heard that Ruby and Yang are you sister." I sighed a bit.

(Y/n): "Not a biological brother. I'm an adopted son."

Blake: "Umm... why you don't want them to call you as brother?" I looked down and let out a loud sigh. "I-It's okay if you don't wan-"

(Y/n): "I was an adopted son of the Xiao Long Rose family. I was an orphan. I don't know who is my biological mother and father. Basically, every adopted child will have a better life after they got adopted. But mine is different. I was used as a punching bag, anger relieve, anything that you want to call it. Everyday, I will get beaten by dad. If he don't, then Yang or mom will do it. Ruby, before she changed, she cared about me. She's the one who light my darkest day. Only my uncle and aunt who still care about me until now. They are the ones who trained me secretly, treat my wound and gave me the hope to live until today. Everyday I kept thinking, why they adopted me... why they.." I started to tearing up. "W-why they treat me l-like a slaves...." I can't hold my tears anymore. I began to cry. "W-why *sobs* do I have t-to endure *sobs* this kind of life..." I put my face on my hand, trying to hold my tears. I then felt someone hugged me from left side.

Blake: "Shh shh shh... It's okay... You're not in that life right now.." she said trying to make me calm. I managed to calm myself.

(Y/n): "*sniffs* Thanks.. I need that. Anyway, after having enough, I decided to run from the house. I live in the forest for 2 weeks until one day, two beowolves came out from the bushes and attacked me. They managed to give me a bad wounds. And that time, I was lucky that my ass was saved by the Team 5. After that, they took me in the watch and treat me like a real family. And that's how I've become what I am today.

Blake: "You have a really great life after you left the house..." she said trying to hold her tears after listened to my story.

(Y/n): "Heh... I'm glad to hear that..."

Blake: "Umm where is the 3 other guy? Last time I met with you team, there were 5. But now, only 2..." I looked down again, trying to hold my tears. "(Y-(Y/n), w-what's wrong?" She asked and concerned.

(Y/n): "Izmash, Tenzou, Danny...... they were killed by the White Fang....." her eyes widen.

Blake: "W-What? When?"

(Y/n): "They died 1 month ago during our mission to capture or kill Adam Taurus. Danny and Tenzou took a blast from RPG, bu Danny got the most and died instantly. Tenzou had most of the shrapnels on his right leg. We had to left him behind. His order. Izmash died during our last stand at an abandoned town." I could feel a single tear dropped. Blake then hugged me and rubbed my back trying to calm me.

Blake: "I-I'm sorry to hear that.. I know how it feels when you lose someone who is really important in your life..."

(Y/n): "It's fine... umm... can I smoke?" I asked.

Blake: "Yes, you can. Just don't blow the smoke towards me..." She smiled and I do the same. I took out my cigarrete and light it up. I felt a little bit calm. "Feel good now?" She asked and I nodded.

(Y/n): "Oh yeah. Umm, can I ask you something?"

Blake: "Shoot it."

(Y/n): "Why are you wearing the bow?" I asked.

Blake: "I-It's just, I like the bow!" She smiled nervously.

(Y/n): "Hmm..... okay." I shrugged. "We should get back now. It's getting dark." I then grabbed her hand and we walked back.

Blake's POV:

He is holding my hand! I can feel my face heated up and I'm started to blush. We've reached at his room. I still can't hide my blush.

(Y/n): "Well, this is where we seperate..."

Blake: "Y-Yeah..." I'm stuttered.

(Y/n): "Blake, why are you blushing?" I didn't answered it but instead, I pointed at our intertwined hand. He then immediately released it. "Oh.. sorry about that, heheh..." he said while rubbing the back of his neck.

Blake: "N-no... it's f-fine... Anyway, I see you again tomorrow.."

(Y/n): "Yeah. I'll see you again...." He then turned around and opened the door. I stopped him by hugged him from the back. "Umm Blake? Is there anything wrong?"

Blake: "Ummmm.. no..." He then turned to face me and returned the hug. We stayed in that position for a couple of minutes. I then broke the hug. "I should get back to my room now."

(Y/n): "Yeah.. same as me. See ya-" I cut him off by giving him a kiss on his left cheek. He was shocked and blushed. He's definitely cuter when he blushed. I chuckled.

Blake: "Goodbye, (Y/n). See ya again tomorrow." I waved at him and walked to my room.

(Y/n): "S-See ya a-again..."

(Y/n)'s POV:

Oh oum not again! After the first mission she do that, now she do that again! I placed my hand on my left cheek. I smiled and walked into my room.

Erik: "I see that she make that move, again." He said while looking on some files.

(Y/n): "S-Silence you wolf." I'm still stuttered. He chuckled a bit.

Erik: "Now I know why Blake likes you."

(Y/n): "W-Why?" I tilted my head a bit.

Erik: "Because you are cute when you stuttered."

(Y/n): "D-Dammit.... I-I don't know if she will accept me or not..."

Erik: "Believe me kid, she will. I know her. She would not do things if she has no reasons to do it. You just need to tell her. That's all." For somehow, I feel like hope shined brighter.

(Y/n): "Thanks for the.. encouragement. By the way, what do you looking at?"

Erik: "Files for new members. You should get some sleep now. I'll let you know about the new kids tomorrow."

(Y/n): "Right..." I then walked to my bed and laid on it. "Goodnight."

Erik: "Goodnight, kid." I closed my eyes and let myself drifted into the sleep. But my mind were thinking about her.

(Y/n)'s mind: "I have to tell her soon, that I love her."
