-Raven Pov-

I feel myself starting to wake up before the rest of my team, which doesn't surprise me at all. I have trouble sleeping anyways, and usually wake up early as a result. In fact, it's nice that I woke up before everyone else, since it gives me a few hours of silence and peacefulness. The early mornings and late night are my favorite parts of the day, as I love to take in the smell, and feel of the crisp air. I open the window ever so slightly, and enjoy the feeling of the breeze, before closing my eyes again, hoping to at the very least get a little more sleep since classes start today.

The early morning tranquility is shattered later. I don't know how much time has passed, but I open my eyes to see the sun well risen. Looking over at the source of the noise, I see Summer with a whistle. She smiles, and then blows on it again. Groggily, I sit up, and then see Qrow begin to stir. To the surprise of no one, (y/n) manages to sleep through that. Before Summer can blow the whistle again and shatter my ear drums, I hold up a hand.

Making my way to the bathroom, I fill a bucket with ice water. I make my way back over to (y/n)'s sleeping form. Qrow chuckles as he realizes what I'm about to do, while Summer tries her best to talk me out of it. However, with a smile on my face, I dump the water on him. " Holy shit," I hear him say, and then he shoots up. " I'm awake!" As Summer rapidly apologizes, and Qrow laughs, I notice one other detail about him.

He's completely shirtless. I can't help but notice his toned body, as well as the scars in certain areas. Before I can say anything, he winks at me, shattering the image of a stoic, battle-hardened hero. " Like what you see," he teases, and then I roll my eyes.

" I would rather die," I inform him simply, before going to the bathroom to get dressed for the morning. As if I could ever be attracted to him. He's good looking to be certain, and he certainly knows that as well. But, his personality irritates me to no end. He's lazy, cocky, and a flirt, bordering on a pervert. And at least to me, that easily cancels out any points his physical appearance could have earned him.

As we sit in class, I notice (y/n) and Raven sitting across from each other. She seems to be staring at him, and I wonder why. Maybe she noticed how buff he was this morning when she saw him without his shirt. I hope the two of them can start to get along soon, since we're going to be living together, and I want to be friends with the both of them. The both of them are so cool! Raven seems so mysterious and calm, while (y/n) is so funny and confident. Qrow chuckles to himself as he watches Raven stare at (y/n), for once not angry, but seemingly curious.

The illusion of calm ends when (y/n) turns to see Raven staring at him. As she tries to avert her eyes quickly, he blows her a kiss, which is the last straw for her. She stands up, and slams her hands down on the desk angrily, prompting the teacher to look over at her. (y/n) smirks when he sees this, and rests his feet on the desk.

Calmly, the professor starts to ask what happened, and Raven begins to tell her version of events. When she finishes, the professor asks (y/n) for an explanation, and then he simply shrugs. This causes Professor Amari to pinch the bridge of her nose. " Detention for the both of you."

They try to protest, but the issue clearly isn't up for debate. And so when the day ends, I notice the two of them walk down to detention, glaring at each other all the way. I pray to Oum silently that when it ends, I still have all four members of my team.

Professor Amari steps out of the room, leaving me and (y/n) by ourselves. I try to make the most of my time here, and so I pull out my Grimm anatomy textbook, and then take the chapter notes. I glance over to see (y/n) about to fall asleep, which irritates me. " Do you take anything seriously," I ask, and then he sits up.

" Rave, it's detention. Why would I do any work in here? They have me here for not doing my work, so why should I bother? It's not like they can put me in a special form of detention inside of detention. Might as well get my money's worth."

" Is this all a game to you," I ask angrily, thinking of the reasons Qrow and I have for being here, how much rides on it. " Because if it is, then you shouldn't even be here."

He chuckles at this, and to my surprise, a bit of regret is in the chuckle. " I'm sure you were able to see the scars this morning when you were gawking at me. I take fighting Grimm seriously, and no being a huntsman isn't a game to me. And, I have nowhere else to go." What surprises me is he doesn't say this sadly or angrily, this is just something he accepted a long time ago.

" I'm sorry to hear that," I say, and I find myself meaning it. He simply grunts in response, before trying to fall back asleep. Rolling my eyes, I take a deep breath, and then turn to him.
" We're going to be on a team together for four more years. It's going to be miserable for the both of us if we are always fighting, and trying to kill each other. Would you like to start over," I ask, expecting him to simply laugh at my offer.

" I'm (y/n) (l/n)," he says, reaching out a hand.

" Raven Branwen," I say, taking it with a small smile on my lips
