(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...
"YEAH... IT DID... JUST LOOK AT WHAT IT DID TO YOU"
CHAPTER 9: AMBUSH(3rd Person POV)
As the sun slowly rose up from over the horizon, Dairoku and Ruby were sitting outside, admiring the beautiful golden hue the sky was coated in. Ruby sat directly in front of Dairoku, in between his legs and was leaning back into him while Dairoku had his arms around her waist...
Yang: You two are up early.
They turned their heads to see Yang walking towards them
Ruby: Hey sis.
Dairoku: Goldilocks.
Yang: *touches Ruby's nose with her hair* Boop.
Ruby giggled as Dairoku shook his head in amusement. She took a seat next to them as they continued looking out into the horizon.
Ruby: What are you doing up?
Yang: Can't fall back asleep.
Dairoku: Really? Us too.
Kuraime: Well fortunately...
They turned around to see Weiss, Kuraime and Celeste approaching them, the former with a tray of three coffee cups in her hand. Kuraime had two in her hand while Celeste only had one.
Weiss: Coffee exists.
They walked over to the three, Weiss handing one to Yang and Kuraime handing another to Dairoku. Weiss was about to hand one to Ruby, until...
Ruby: No please...!
Weiss: Don't worry, I put in blasphemous amounts of cream in sugar, just for you.
Ruby: Aw yeah! Nice Weiss strikes again!
She was about to take it when Weiss suddenly pulled it back.
Weiss: I will pour this on you and it will burn.
Dairoku: Ice Queen strikes again!
Weiss pouted at Dairoku as the rest began giggling at her. She rolled her eyes before handing Ruby her coffee, who smiled innocently at her. She then sat next to Ruby, Dairoku and Celeste while Kuraime sat next to Yang.
Yang: So, you two cool or...
Ruby and Dairoku smiled at each other.
Dairoku: We had a talk and everything turned out in our favor.
Weiss: That's a relief.
Kuraime: *smugly* You sure that's all that happened?~
Ruby's face immediately went red
Ruby: Shut up! Shut up!
Kuraime: *giggles* I'm kidding! I'm really happy that you two are back together.
Dairoku: Yeah...
Yang: Can't believe we're actually in Mistral.
Ruby: That's what you can't believe?
Yang: Well, yeah! And all the other Magic and stuff, but okay, you know what I mean!
Weiss: I honestly wasn't sure if I'd ever see you all again.
Celeste held Weiss' hand as the two smiled sweetly towards one another.
Yang: Well, here's to defying expectations.
Dairoku and Kuraime: To Defying expectations.
While Ruby gulped down her coffee, Weiss, Kuraime, Dairoku, Yang and Celeste all bumped their mugs together before taking a sip.
