(3rd Person POV)

The silver and red eyes of a certain Phoenix Faunus fluttered open to reveal, the corner of the rose's sleeping face. Then she too slowly began to wake up, with a slight groan from the sunlight, triggering her partner behind her to chuckle in amusement. Hearing his voice she rolled over to face him with a sweet smile plastered over her face.

Dairoku: Good morning my sweet Roselyn.

Ruby: Hmmm... Good morning Dairoku.

Dairoku: *kisses her nose* Boop.

Ruby giggled before playfully hitting his chest.

Dairoku: So... *looks away nervous* Was... it satisfying...? Last night...

Ruby: *blushes* O-Of course! It was amazing, exactly how I imagined! W-Wait... What!? What am I saying?!

Dairoku: Calm down Roselyn. Besides, I don't think we want to... alert the others... especially Yang and Qrow...

Ruby: Well... we were pretty loud last night, were we not...?

Dairoku... *heavy sweat drop* Ah... shit...

Ruby: *blushes while giggling* Don't worry. If they did, I won't let them get anywhere near you.

Dairoku: *chuckles* Aren't I supposed to be protecting you?

Ruby: *smirks* As you said, things change.

Giving each other a satisfied smiles, the both moved to sitting positions on the bed, the blanket covering their crotch areas. Dairoku noticed his boxers on the ground and reached for it. Before taking it up, Ruby put her hand on his shoulder...

Ruby: *nervous* Um... H-Hey...

Dairoku: *raises eyebrow* What's wrong?

Ruby: Um... Are we... you know... back together now...?

Dairoku smiled before pulling the now deflowered rose into an embrace.

Dairoku: Yeah... We are Roselyn.

Ruby smiled sweetly and snuggled into her partner's bare chest.

Ruby: *relieved sigh* Thank goodness... *blushes* But... we did... 'this'...

Dairoku: *blushes* Yeah... we did... You're absolute certain you took the pill last night, right?

Ruby: Y-Yeah! ...I think... *rubs head nervously*

Dairoku: ...Ruby... We don't want to have kids in the middle of a war...

Ruby: U-Um... Ehehehe...  A-Anyways, we can't be a normal couple anymore since we got this far, right?

Dairoku: Hmm... I guess not...

Ruby: Then, what are we...?

Dairoku: Hmm... Good question...

Ruby began looking down, slightly sadden until Dairoku put his hand under her chin and lifted her head up to meet his...

Dairoku: *smiling* But... whatever we are... I don't ever want to leave your side.

Ruby: *smiling* Me too. I love you.

Dairoku: And I love you too.

With another smile exchanged between the two, they leaned in and locked their lips together, into a passionate and blissful embrace... Dairoku and Ruby... The Phoenix and The Rose... are back together... at last...
