-Your Pov-

Standing on the cliff, you smile when Ozpin explains how the initiation will work. It seems simple enough, just fighting Grimm and finding some relics. Some part of you is curious about the procedure for team, and find it weird that it's so random and left to chance. Shrugging, you watch with interest as other students figure out their landing strategy in mid-air. When you get launched, you take in a deep breath, loving the cold air on your skin and the adrenaline that floods into your body. Pulling out your weapon, you know instantly how you'll land safely, but also in an eye-catching way.

Thrusting with your sword, it extends into several sections, a cross between a chain and a whip. Using this, you wrap around a tree, and drag yourself to the ground. Having used a bit too much force, the tree snaps in half, but you return your sword to the normal length and cut it again before it can crush you into bits. A smirk escapes you when you see the Grimm coming to you as a reaction to the noise from the tree being bisected. Swinging your sword in the air, you take a step forward. " Let's do this together Zabimaru!"

-Weiss Pov-

Launched through the air, I use a series of glyphs to descend to the ground. I smile at my graceful landing. Looking around, I see craters and cut down trees. Clearly not everyone displayed as much concern for the forest as I did. Rolling my eyes, I make my way through the forest, and wonder who I will come across for my partner, and for that matter who I would like to be partnered with.

Phyrra for sure. Anyone would be lucky to end up with a world class fighter like her on their team. She also seemed very agreeable and nice. But, more than anyone else, I would like (y/n) to be on my team. If he has improved since we were kids, then he must be an amazing fighter. And, more than anyone else, he has been with me and been by my side whenever he got the chance. As I make my way through the forest, I can't help but remember one of the times he made me feel like the most special girl in the world.

-Flashback-

I smile as (y/n) comes up to me with a wrapped present. The wrapping is far from perfect, showing me he did this by himself. My smile takes on a hint of sadness when I think about how my father had forgotten that today was my birthday. When some assistant tells him, he'll probably over compensate with an expensive gift to make up for his neglect. To him, the money is far more important than the thought. However, seeing (y/n) here with a present makes me smile.

" Happy Birthday Weiss Cream," he says, the use of his nickname making a tint of pink touch my cheek. Happily, he hands me the present. Taking it, I unwrap it gently. A big smile touches my face when I see it. A snowflake necklace. While the Schnee family could buy me something more expensive, I know that nothing will have as much thought and meaning behind it. This must have taken (y/n) at least weeks of allowance. Smiling, I pull him into a big hug, and give him an awkward kiss on the cheek. He becomes crimson red, and touches where my lips touched. My lipstick leaves a slight stain, and his smile grows more and more.

-Present Day-

A smile touches my face when I think of that. Touching my neck, the snowflake necklace still dangles from it. Even after the years, I held onto it. I have tailors and other people fix it up so I can still wear it. I never told my father it was from (y/n) or he might have made me discard it. On those nights I missed him the most, this necklace was a small reminder of how much I cared for him, and how much he cared for me. I held onto it, secretly hoping it had some power that would bring him back to me. And, it looks like all that praying came true.

Almost nothing could make this day less wonderful for me. I think about that, until I see Ruby Rose. She starts to talk about how it looks like we're partners, but I just simply try and walk off. However, in a burst of flowers, she appears in front of me. Rolling my eyes, I begrudgingly admit that she might have some talent. I gesture for her to follow me, which she eagerly does.

-Your Pov-

Fighting the Grimm, you allow your mind to wander. They pose next to no challenge to you, and your thoughts get to run free. Fighting is when you do some of your best thinking. For one thing, you wonder who you want to be on your team. It would be nice to have Phyrra on your team. She knocked you on your ass last time you fought in a tournament, so you knew she could fight. Other than her, there was nobody you might want on your team. Other than...Weiss. She must have been a capable fighter, and well she had always been there for you.

-Flashback-

Going to lunch, you sit at your usual table with Weiss. She pulls out an elaborate meal, and looks at you with concern. Your parents are going through a tough time at work, and they haven't been able to give you lunch in sometime. The both of them had enough pride that they refused to put you on the free lunch program. Your stomach growls, but you do your best to silence it and talk to Weiss about something. However, she looks at you concerned. " (y/n), what is it? You love to eat. But, I haven't seen you eat anything all this week."

Sighing, you look down. You aren't embarrassed of your social status, but it isn't something you feel comfortable to admitting, especially to Weiss. In the past, when it has come out, people had no problem teasing you for it. And from how Weiss has described her parents, you wouldn't put it past him to have raised her to think the same thing.

" My dad got laid off," you admit eventually. " We have nothing left between the bills, and sending me to school. It's no big deal Weiss. I'm not even that hungry." Before you can say anything, she slides a portion of her lunch to you, and then places her hands over yours.

" Of course it's a big deal. You're my best friend (y/n). Until your parents get back on their feet, I'll make sure to bring extra food for you, and I'll see if I can convince my parents to give you a loan or something. After years of you fighting bullies for me, I want to take care of you in some way."

-Present Day-

Making your way down to the temple, a blush tints your cheeks when you think of the idea that Weiss cares about you so profoundly. You try to silence the doubts about you having feelings for her, but the doubts get stronger, and you wonder....Would it be so bad to want to be with her?

( let me know what you thought. Also do you guys wanna see a pitiful attempt at an Oc team, or for me to just put him on Team RWBY)
