A Week Later

Weiss' POV

"Okay, what?" From her bunk, I can hear Yang groan. Blake and Ruby are a little less abrasive to my skepticism, as they calmly wait in Blake's bunk. Yang hops down from her bed and puts her arm around me as she sits on my bed.

"Alright, Weissy the plan is simple. You and (Y/N) have been with each other for a while now and we say it's about time you and him get together and we, as your team, are going to help you with that." She gestures to Blake and Ruby while talking.

"Don't you think it is a little rude to decide my relationships for me? Who I date and when I start dating them is up to me." Yang huffs and all three of them roll their eyes. They can not be serious, can they?

"Yeah yeah. All that is true except knowing you, the "when" will never happen. You're just going to wait around for (Y/N) to ask you out." I push Yang's arm off of me before crossing my arms.

"So? If he wants to date me, then he should just ask me." Ruby then speaks up.

"But he could be a little nervous or he might not think that you are into him like that given how you can... usually, act." My head snaps into the direction of my partner and team mate.

"And what exactly does that mean!?" Blake rolls her eyes.

"You act like you don't want something, yet you actually want it. You will say one thing, yet do the opposite. You will say you don't like how Zweii acts, yet will then fawn all over him the next second. Heck, you once said "Shut up don't touch me!" when Ruby was hugging you and then hugged her back after saying that." From the side, Yang nods in agreement.

"Exactly. You play hard to get. I'm not saying that some people don't like that, but given what you've said about (Y/N) and from how he acted when we all met him, I don't think he is the kinda guy to get your mixed messages. He probably thinks that you two are just friends and that's all you want." My face heats up a little bit as I grow frustrated.

"Well, what makes you think that I want more from our relationship? Maybe I like us as just friends." Yang groans again, but is subdued by Blake before she can do anything. The cat faunus walks our brawler to their side of the room as Ruby sits next to me on the bed.

"Weiss, you talk about him quite a bit and hang out with him a lot. You perk up whenever you talk about (Y/N) and you tend to get sad when (Y/N) can't spend time with you. I know you aren't one to really wear your heart on your sleeve like some of us, which is okay. That's who you are. It's just your usual way of handling your emotions is not the best way to handle this. Basically what we are trying to say is that you have to admit to yourself that you do like (Y/N)." I... don't know what to say. Do I like (Y/N)? (Y/N) has become a good friend since we met and I can't really deny that I have grown quite fond of the hunter-in-training. Especially after how he helped me with that whole Neptune-Pluto-Jupiter debacle.

"... Okay." All of the racket stops as my classmates turn to me. Ruby soon smiles from what I said, but Yang soon asks.

"What?" Taking a deep breath I calm down and answer them.

"I agreed with you. I do have feelings for (Y/N). I admit it." Yang's lips grow into a large grin. Of course, she would be so happy that she's right. Childish.

"Yes! Finally, you admit it." She then pushes herself off of Blake who simply sits back down on her bed while Yang sits back down next to me. "Now that the first obstacle is out of the way we can work on the next obstacle: getting you two together." Ruby and Blake nod in agreement. Great now they are going to play god with my dating life.

"And how do you plan to help me with that?" Yang gets a devious look on her face.

"Oh let us tell you our plan..." I am going to regret this.

Skip to Vale

"Okay, there he is. Just go up to him and talk casual." Yang's voice comes out from the little earpiece that she gave me, which I might add is really uncomfortable to wear. Rubbing my ear I try to make the device fit more comfortably in my ear without making it look like I am doing something suspicious. Much to my cringe, the action does not succeed in its first intention. Quietly I speak back to them.

"How exactly did you get this silly device and why do I have to wear it?" Yang responds quickly.

"Coco let me borrow it and you are wearing it so that we can help you out and guide you. Duh." I can hear some background noise that sounds like talking. Undoubtedly that is from my other two teammates. Again childish.

"Why does Coco have this and why do I need you three to "help" me?" I can hear a little groan from my teammate.

"Not important and all things considered we have more relationship and dating experience than you." I scoff before responding to Yang.

"Oh, and what makes you say that?"

"Well Ruby is currently dating someone, Blake spends all her time reading romance novels, and I mean, come on, I'm me." Her last point is what loses me. Oum, why do I call Yang a friend again? "But let's not focus on those things right now. Our mission is making you happy and getting you and (Y/N) together." Oh yeah, that's why. Sighing I relent.

"Alright, Yang lets get this started."

"Finally! Alright just do what I said earlier. Go up to him and be causal." Following my blonde friend's advice, I make my way over to (Y/N) who looks like he is searching for something.

"Greetings (Y/N). How are you?" My friend turns and waves.

"Oh hey, Snow. How's it going?" Oum I am so nervous. Why am I so nervous? It's because of my team and their stupid plan. That's what has my nerves up. Dunces. Taking a breath, I try and calm down before responding.

"Oh I am fine, thank you for asking. What's up with you?"

"The clouds." He goes back to looking for whatever it is that he lost as I groan.

"Really (Y/N)?" Without looking back he responds.

"Really really."

"Dunce." He doesn't respond to that one and before I can do anything Yang shouts into the earpiece.

"Come on Weiss-cream you're blowing it! Ask him what he is looking for and see if you can help him with finding it." Jeez, that is annoying! I will have to remember not to agree to anything like this again. Whispering so as to not be heard by (Y/N) I reply to my teammate.

"Well, I was going to do that until someone decided to interrupt me!"

"You say something, Snow?" Dang it! I wasn't quiet enough! Stiffening up, my lips curl into a smile as I try to put up a facade to not give (Y/N) any suspicion. (Y/N) turns back to me and grins when he sees my smile.

"Ooh, what did you do?" What? Did he catch on to me? Alright, Weiss just stay calm.

"Alright, Weiss stay calm." Thank you, Yang, for stating the obvious. Good job.

"What do you mean? I'm just smiling." He laughs and shakes his head.

"Oh come on. No one smiles like that unless they are trying to hide something. You know like when a kid is caught with their hand in the cookie jar."

"What? I can't be happy to see my friend?" He nods.

"You can, but like I said you are too happy." He laughs after a scoff escapes my lips. "See? There is the usual Snow attitude. You were worrying me for a minute." My response is an eye roll.

"Whatever. What are you looking for?"

"Oh, it would appear that I have misplaced my scroll."

"Really?" He nods. "Well where was the last place you saw it?" He scratches his head while thinking.

"I think the last place I had it was back at my apartment. If you don't mind waiting I can run back to my place and check." Out of nowhere Yang's screams come from the earpiece.

"Holy crap! Alright out of left field! Change plan. Snowbird is about to head to the layer. We need a new game plan. Team huddle up!" I cringe while there is some commotion from wherever it is those three dunces are at.

"You okay Snow?"

"Hm? Oh I um I just keep hearing an irritating noise. I think there might be a bug flying around or something. That's all." He seems to buy that excuse more than the other one.

"Ah okay. Well, he can hang out later if you want?"

"No!" (Y/N) moves back a little bit from my outburst. Clearing my throat I try to continue. "I mean there is no need. I would gladly accompany if you don't mind. Having an extra pair of eyes would probably be of assistance."

"You sure? I know that a guy taking a girl back to his apartment is seen as a little bold by some. Especially since we would be alone there too. I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable." A happy noise that I recognize as my team leader's voice then comes from the earpiece.

"Aww, that's sweet of him. He sounds just like-" Ruby is cut off and some scuffling sounds can be heard.

"Rubes, we agreed I would man communications." Yang pauses as the sound of someone talking can be heard. "Yeah well, we are talking about it now." Dunces.

"Well, I don't see any problem with it. I am just a friend trying to help out another friend with his predicament. It's only weird if you make it weird. I mean you don't plan on doing anything fishy do you?" He holds up his hands defensively.

"What? No, I would never do something weird." His tone tells me he isn't joking.

"See? There is nothing to be worried about. Now let's try and find your scroll. I would hate if someone else found it." (Y/N) laughs a little.

"Yeah you and me both, Snow. Welp, come on I'll show you the way."

Skip to the apartment

(Y/N) holds the door to the apartment open for me. With a nod, I quickly step inside of the surprisingly clean apartment. Then again (Y/N) mentioned that his mother likes to just randomly pop in to keep him on his toes, so that may answer the cleanliness. Well, this is a nice little apartment. The kitchen is directly connected to the main room with the only thing signifying that one room ends and the other room begins is that the brown carpet turns to a nice tile floor. There's a hallway in the corner of the room where I presume the bathroom and bedrooms are located. The door clicks shut and (Y/N) places his halberd against a wall.

"Well, this is my place. What do you think?"

"This is a lovely place. Very homely." Yang's voice comes from the earpiece again.

"Don't get too comfy! You two are alone in his apartment. Stay vigilant!" Oum that is getting so irritating!

"Shut up Yang!" The sound of metal sliding against the wall and hitting the ground fills the apartment. Turning towards the source I am greeted by a startled looking (Y/N) with his weapon now on the ground. "... I said that out loud didn't I?" He nods his head. "Dang it..."

"You blew it. Also rude." Yang chimes in.

"I said shut up Yang."

"Okay, what? Did Yang follow us or something?" (Y/N) looks at me confused. Sighing I pull the little communication device from my ear and present the earpiece to him. "Your team or at least Yang has been monitoring us? Why?" The device starts to let out noises which I guess is Yang trying to give me advice or explain herself. (Y/N) just rolls his eyes before picking the gadget up. "Well, Blondie as much as I would love to joke and chat with you, Snow and I need to chat. Tell Little Red and Noir that I said hi." (Y/N) then crushes the machine in his hand.

"You know we were borrowing that from a friend." He shrugs his shoulders and goes and picks up his halberd.

"Bill me." Once his weapon is back against the wall (Y/N) looks back at me. "Now then what was this all about?" Looking down I muster up my courage.

"I... I like you (Y/N)." He shakes his head with a strange expression on his face.

"Yeah I kinda know that already. I mean liking someone is kinda a prerequisite to being their friend." Laughing I step closer to him.

"Dunce. I mean that I have feelings for you. As in I like you more than friends." My head then rests on his chest after all that. I can not see his face but I can guess that he's taken back.

"I... um... well..." Hehe called it.

"Once I admitted to how I feel my team decided that they would "help me" ask you out. Hence the now crushed little device." After some silence (Y/N) speaks.

"I must have freaked them out a little when I agreed to let you come back to my apartment."

"You can say that, yes." After some more silence, I speak up. "So what do you think?"

"About?" With a huff, I respond.

"About what I just said you dunce. What else would I be referring to?" Looking up at his face I can see (Y/N) blushing and rubbing the back of his head.

"Well, to be honest, I like you too Snow. You're quite beautiful and when you aren't dealing with some abhorrent admirers you are a delight to be around so..." He trails off near the end.

"So?" He gulps and gingerly wraps his free arm around my body and pulls me a little closer.

"So I wouldn't mind being your boyfriend if you don't mind."

"Of course I want to date you. That's what I just got done saying." He smiles at my irritation.

"Well, I guess we are official then." His grin erodes my irritation and infects me with a smile. We then lean our heads together and our lips meet.
