As It Turns Out 09

"Hey Penny, hey Elroy!" In a burst of petals, Ruby appeared before then.

Penny happily waved at her. "Hello Ruby! Am I to assume class is finally over?" She couldn't actually go with her friends to it, sadly.

Ruby quickly nodded. "Yep! It was super ultra boring, so like... better than usual." At least this time Professor Port had actually given some real advice, maybe because he was worried about the upcoming mission? That sounded pretty plausi—.

It didn't matter right now! She had to get her head in the game. "A-anyways, Elroy, we got confirmation of something in class today, as it turns out, the mission is gonna be tomorrow! I mean, we pick the mission tomorrow, and then probably leave the same day because it imitates crisis situations, because most of the times missions come out of nowhere because of how Grimm work and—."

"C-calm down Ruby." He was pretty sure she started using her Semblance in the middle of... all that. "Is something wrong? You seem pretty... anxious." Which was normal for her, but this was worse than usual.

Ruby's eyes widened. "Do I-I!?" She felt anxious, that was for sure...! Her heart was beating way too fast.

Penny nodded, uncaring... or perhaps ignorant of how that was only going to increase Ruby's anxiety. "Yes, your face is quite reddened. A sign of embarassment, or physical effort."

Ruby's face became even more red, unsurprisingly. "It's definitely the latter! I had to outrun my team after class started!" Which wasn't hard to do with her Semblance, but she wanted to get as much time as possible, so she ran as fast as possible.

Elroy scratched his cheek. "And the reason for that is...?" He was getting genuinely a worried...

Ruby pulled her hood up, trying to hide her face. "D-don't worry about it!" Because she wanted some time alone with him of course.

Team RWBY was always around him, so she thought this was her one chance... Except she had completely forgotten Penny. Since the girl was not attending classes for now, it was only natural that she stuck around with her husband.

Elroy frowned. "Yeah, I'm worrying about it." Though he could more or less figure it out.

He didn't forget the tension he had felt from team RWBY yesterday, after Blake's kiss, so it was not too hard to figure that out. He also imagined that it only got worse after the announcement that their mission was going to happen tomorrow. Ruby's time with him was essentially cut short, and she didn't want to waste it.

Ruby whimpered. "Ugh..."

But Elroy simple smiled. "You know if you want to spend some time alone with me, you can just ask. I'm sure Penny and the others wouldn't mind." They were all mature girls and older than Ruby, they would understand.

Penny raised a hand. "That is incorrect! I would mind, although I would still find it moderately acceptable!" She was being honest as usual.

Honesty however, could hurt, which is why Ruby flinched. "Penny, I'm sorry... Do you want to like... hang out later?" This sucked.

She knew sharing a husband would be a tough thing to do, but this was the first time Ruby genuinely felt like it was impending on her goals. Not that she disliked Penny or anything, but she needed to do something...

Penny was buzzing with happiness. "That would be sensational, Ruby!" The silver eyed girl was her best friend, after all!

"Yeah... sensational." Her mission to get Elroy's attention had failed... she would get him next time...

To her surprise however, Elroy put a hand on her shoulder. "C'mon Ruby, I'm here, we can talk." Penny's casual admission that she would be bothered had thrown a wrench into his plans, but he would keep walking forward!

Ruby looked down. "Well... to be honest... all I want is..." Was she really about to say this!? It was so embarassing! How did Blake pull it off so flawlessly!? "A k-kiss! I want a kiss!" There, she said it!

She was not some super pervert, but she was still a teenage girl! And one that was going to be away from her lover for a long while, so of course she wanted at least a nice something to remember him and give her strength!

"Okay then, Ruby." He... was supposed to encourage her in times like this, right?

So he began leaning over... ignoring how Penny was nodding her head in approval. "Yes, this is a consensual exchange!" Ruby had asked for something, and now Elroy was providing it!

But Penny's comment actually ended up spooking Ruby out of it. "In the cheek! It gotta be on the cheek!" She wasn't ready to use her mouth! Not even for a simple peck!

Elroy quickly course corrected without even questioning her, giving her a quick kiss on the cheek.

And of course, it was at that time that team RWBY finally arrived. "No...! I can't lose to my baby sister!" Yang couldn't see things that well.

Not when she was coming from behind, and when Ruby had her hood raised. So from her point of view... from the rest of team RWBY's point of view, they had lost the race, so to speak.

While Yang despaired, Weiss raged. "Ruby Rose, I cannot believe you left us in the dust so that you could get... intimate with Elroy!" This was so unfair!

Next time something similar happened, Weiss would use her gliphs to catch up, even if it was unruly!

Naturally, Blake didn't care. "Oh, you guys are making out. About damn time." She was hoping her maneuver the other day would have lightened up some kind of fire.

Seriously, she was living in what felt like the plot of a raunchy book and yet her teammates acted like prudes. It almost felt insulting. They stole her husband, and couldn't even be bothered to ride his brains out or something? Pathetic.

Ruby exploded. "W-we weren't making out...!" But it sure felt like it...!

Penny interjected. "They kissed! It was wonderful!" A true display of love and affection!

Ruby caressed her cheek. "We were just displaying our love for each other, and... and...!" She shook her head, trying to dispel any strange thoughts. "Right now I have enough strength to destroy an army of Grimm! To destroy all Grimm! Let's go team RWBY!" Ruby had now confirmed it...

The power of love was real!

Weiss' eye twitched. "First of all, it's a beginner's mission, we will probably just fight some weak Grimm, and certainly not an army of them." Which was a disappointment. "Second of all, the mission is tomorrow. Third of all, if you two weren't making out, what sort of blasphemy did I just witness?"

Ruby's answer destroyed Weiss. "We were making love!" And then it destroyed Ruby too, as she realized the implication. "I-I mean, ugh...!"

Elroy finally interjected, chuckling. "I just gave her a kiss in the cheek, it's no big deal." Especially since he was originally going to give even more.

Blake sighed. "Seriously...?" All this just for that? Well, at least Ruby had made some progress, she supposed.

And now that Blake thought about it, should she even care about all of this?

Weiss' brain finally rebooted. "Oh? That's all? Then I suppose it's alright." Of course her childish leader would freak out about something so small.

And she herself had not acted childish in the slightest in comparison. Definitely.

Yang let out a burst of laughter. "That's just like you Ruby, making us worry over nothing."

Ruby glared at her. "You guys need to stop trying to ruin my moment just because you are all jealous." At least she made a move.

Yang glared right back at her. "Is that a challenge I hear, sis? Do you want me to teach you a lesson?" Her voice was provocative.

Like usual, she would kick Ruby's ass. Be it in a video game, or in a spar.

Ruby nodded. "Sure, it's a challenge. Go on and and smooch your hubbie, Yang."

As far as Ruby was concerned, it was a challenge she had already won. She knew Yang was super weird about love for one reason or another, she may act more confident than Ruby... and be more confident than her in general, but in this area she was lacking.

Yang grit her teeth. "I..." She looked at Elroy. "Will arrange that, somehow." She was now looking right at him.

It made him feel very awkward. "You know, you guys don't need to act like I'm some fantasy prince." They did not hear him.

Weiss cackled. "Not if I make my move first, Xiao Long..." She had her own devious plans, ones that her team leader had not ruined with her dumb maneuver.

"Just try it Weiss cream, whatever move you make won't hinder me at all..." Who would pick a lame girl like Weiss over her anyways? What did Weiss even have? She was a prick, a billionaire, a know it all, a billionai—. Okay, Yang could see her attractive points.

"Y-you guys do know I'm here, right?"

Blake pat his back. "At this point? They do not."



//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////



"So... Elroy... hubbie..."

He raised an eyebrow. "Do you need something, Yang?" This was certainly reminding him of his earlier encounter with Ruby, considering the blonde was also bright red.

Yang started playing with her hair. "Yeah, y-you." That would have sounded a lot better if she didn't stutter. "I-in like... a date, yeah..." And now she was making things even worse!

But she couldn't ruin this opportunity. Right now Elroy was alone... Ruby was out with Penny, probably being two adorable dorks together. Blake was being a loner as usual. And Weiss... was probably in some corner studying or something, Yang didn't care.

It didn't matter. All that mattered was getting her way before she lost the chance for it!

Elroy smiled. "I'm down for it, what did you have in mind Yang?"

She almost let out a sigh of relief at his acceptance, even though he had no reason to say no in the first place. "Nothin' crazy. We could just go to a bar and dance a little... get some drinks and stuff."

She could try something different, but this was something she had experience in, therefore there would be less chances of her embarassing herself. Though she would have to avoid a certain club, hopefully Elroy wasn't looking forward to that one.

He tilted his head. "Dancing sounds fun, but I think we will need to cut down the drinks..."

Her eyes widened. "Huh? Why?" Did she miss something?

"Because you have a mission tomorrow right? Though maybe I'm worrying too much." It's not like she would get black out drunk or anything, but Elroy felt nervous.

He wouldn't know what to do if one of his wives screwed up one of the biggest moments in their education because of him. Not to mention how her getting hurt in a mission could mean a lot more than just not getting a passing grade. For all of them.

Yang quickly waved him off. "That's totally fine, we don't need to drink or anything like that, hubbie!" She could be a big drinker, but she knew how to control herself.

Besides, the goal of this entire thing was having a fun time with him, in whatever form that took...

She would first dance with him... and then maybe they could go to a hotel and... well, Yang wasn't Ruby, let's just say that. The only reason she hadn't done anything yet was because she had the misfortune of sharing a dorm with so many people.

Maybe if she put a sock on the door they would leave her alone? Yeah, right, as if. Weiss would probably break down the door in terror... or she would simply not know what the sock meant and walk-in anyways.

Rushing back from the hotel to Beacon would be a pain though. Still worth it.

He put his hands on his hips. "Welp, then that's settled. I'm ready to go whenever you are, Yang."

She pointed at herself. "Good to hear! Let's go right now!" She hoped that didn't make her come off as desperate.

Even though she was absolutely desperate.

"Wait a second!" Weiss dashed in, ruining Yang's hopes and dreams. Typically a job given to Blake. "Elroy, I need to discuss something with you!" Something far more important than whatever Yang was talking about.

Yang immediately pulled him by his arm. "Sorry, this one is taken." She would not let anyone ruin this!

Elroy muttered to himself. "Yeah, by five women."

Weiss cleared her throat. "Yang Xiao Long, I need to discuss something of utmost importance with my husband. This is the last time I will repeat this, so I suggest you take your arm of him." She couldn't believe it her bad luck!

She thought Elroy would be alone currently, but she wasted so much time planning that Yang decided to show up and do... something.

However, Yang was feeling cocky. "Ugh... fine, Weiss. Make it quick though." She released him, because she had already won.

Besides, love rivalry aside, Weiss was... her friend, and also the wife of her husband... as weird as that sounded. So if she really did need to talk about something important, Yang would have to be responsible and relent.

Weiss smiled. "Thank you, Yang." The bimbo gave her husband away just like that! What a fool! "Now Elroy..."

He raised an eyebrow. "Yes?" Weiss' reddened face was giving him a deja-vu.

She took a deep breath to gather her resolve, and pushed on. "I would like to know if you would want to spend your evening with me, that is all." He would say yes, of course, as he was her husband.

And then both would experience the greatest evening of all time! One where Weiss would solidify herself sorely above Blake in the hierarchy of Elroy's heart!

His smile twitched. "That's..." This was becoming the worst case scenario, wasn't it?

Yang jumped-in. "Hey! I thought you were actually gonna talk about something important, Weiss!" She growled. "But for your information, I asked him first, so piss off!" Weiss really was here to ruin everything!

The heiress crossed her arms and huffed. "And I assume he rejected you." Her husband had common sense.

Yang's eyes became red. "You picking a fight!? He didn't reject me! He said yes!"

Weiss paled. "W-well..." She shifted her gaze to her husband. "Elroy, is this true?"

"Yeah...?" Why was she acting so surprised!? He was married to Yang! "B-but I'm sure you can come with us too, right Yang?" He knew the blonde probably wanted some alone time with him, but it couldn't be helped.

"No, she can't."

He flinched. "I see." She outright rejected his solution! With no hesitation at all!

Weiss began tapping her foot. "I wouldn't want to go anyways. I dread to think of the type of place you consider... romantic. Perhaps a jungle?" She was a gorilla after all.

She continued. "And I also guess it's a place that can be visited at any time. The same does not apply to my date!" She held onto one of Elroy's arms. "I went and got us a reservation in a very expansive restaurant, Vale's top restaurant in fact. So Elroy..."

She put on the best manipulative face she could think off, something the Schnee excelled at. "You wouldn't embarass me by making me cancel it, would you? It's something I have been planning for a while..." That was a lie.

She had started coming with plans once Blake had kissed him, and then accelerated those plans once they learned their mission was tomorrow. Now, normally Vale's top restaurant wasn't easy to get in, one would need to make a reservation almost a whole month in advance...

But she was Weiss Schnee. Once she called, some poor sucker lost their reservation and made way for her. And honestly? If she wanted she could have reserved the entire restaurant. Every single table.

Elroy didn't know that though, something which she was perfectly fine with abusing.

As one would expect, he flinched. "I..." He definitely couldn't embarass his wife... but he had promised already...

Yang pointed at Weiss. "Don't listen to her, she's full of shit!" She knew her teammates dumbass tactics like the back of her hand!

Yang too grabbed one of Elroy's arms. "It's not embarassing at all to call a place and say you can't make it! Besides, you already chose me hubbie, and you aren't the type to go back in your word, are you?" She felt a bit bad.

She knew she was putting him in a tough spot... but she wouldn't back down. This wasn't like the times where she let Ruby get one over her or something, this was her husband! So Weiss could go fuck herself.

Elroy decided that perhaps if he did not move, and stayed silent, they would forget that he existed.

Which just meant the argument kept going. "Are you insulting the character of my husband, Yang?"

Yang rolled her eyes. "No. I should be insulting yours though!" At this point her hair was on fire, which definitely made intimidating Weiss' easier.

But it also made Elroy's plan harder, seeing as he was now trembling in terror.

Thankfully, a savior came to his rescue. "What the are you two doing?" That savior's name was Blake, who came into the scene with a book in hand. She didn't seem particularly invested in this mess.

Like a sane person.

Weiss finally let Elroy go. "Settling a dispute on who gets to go on a romantic evening with Elroy, and I advise you Blake, you do not wish to be competition!"

Yang did the same. "Ignore the ice bitch! Let's gang up on her Blake, and then we can decide who goes on the date between us!" Her rage had reached a point where she wanted Weiss to lose more than she wanted herself to win.

Blake rolled her eyes. "I'm sorry to say that the bullheads are not working right now. Beacon doesn't exactly wants us wandering off to waste time in the city when we have a big day tomorrow."

"So unless this romantic evening of you two includes Beacon in some way, I suggest giving up." These two were idiots.

They immediately became silent, dumbfounded at this revelation. Yang's hair even stopped being on fire, and one could almost imagine a rain cloud atop her head.

Elroy finally recovered. "Ah! What a shame, but I'm sure we can come up with something for anothe day!"

Blake giggled. "Yeah, we can. By the way Elroy, you're following me to the library." They really were idiots...



//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////



The library was as quiet as Elroy had expected.

It made sense, there was a big mission tomorrow, so the first years weren't here, they were in their dorms freaking out. Meanwhile, from what he understood most of the seniors were either busy with missions, or just returning from it.

It also helped that the library was unbelievably huge, he was fairly sure it wouldn't be full even if every student went there at the same time. And Blake had chosen a pretty desolate spot as well. Meaning there was no one around them.

Which made him justifiably nervous. "I'm guessing you come here often, Blake?"

She nodded. "Yes. Though not for the books if that's what you're thinking, I'm pretty happy with my collection." She grinned. "I come here because I can have some silence and peace of mind. I do like being part of team RWBY, but... you know."

"Ah." He could understand that sentiment. "I certainly do know. Still, why did you invite me to your... special spot?"

She blushed. "Hmm... I..." She bit her lip. "I want you to bend me over a table, and fuck me good."

And now it was his turn to blush. "I... would be happy to follow with that plan, but..." He looked around. "Not exactly the greatest place for it, don't you think?" She would definitely be in trouble if they got caught.

Serious trouble. Blake would possibly be the first student of Beacon to get expelled because they were caught fucking in the library. Actually, now that he thought about it, there were probably many such students throughout the years.

She waved him off. "It's fine... we won't get caught." That was probably her horny speaking, but she didn't care. "Besides, I couldn't exactly do this in the dorm..." The price of sharing a room with so many people.

He put a hand on his chin. "And we can't get a hotel right now either..."

"Yep..." They could. She lied about the bullhead thing, but he didn't need to know that. "So..." She walked closer. "You wanna give me a goodbye gift before the mission or not...?" She might do something even if he said no.

He began pondering... did he want to bend over his cat girl wife and fuck her in a school library...?

The answer was yes, unsurprisingly.

He moved closer, kissing his wife, and exploring her body with his hands. It was certainly quite the nice upgrade from pecks in the lips or in the cheeks.

The faunus smirked from ear to ear. "I'm guessing that's a yes..." Now this was like something of her books! "Now let's make sure I don't forget you for a second while I'm gone." One might say being distracted was bad for a mission.

Blake did not care. Which is why she turned around, and as she had talked about, leaned over the table.

"So... what are you waiting for, Elroy?" She didn't have time to waste.

And he was way too excited to waste anytime, so he was already lowering his pants. Still, he should be considerate. "Do you want me to do some—."

She cut him off. "I like it rough." One might even call her a pervert. You know, if the whole having sex in the library wasn't enough of a clue.

Elroy decided at this moment that he liked rough too. "If you say so..." He prepared himself as she lowered her pants, taking his wallet out and—.

"No condoms. I'm on the pill."

He raised an eyebrow. "Huh, really?"

She nodded. "I start taking them as soon as I got a husband." It was something accessible to her nowadays when she wasn't constantly on the run from the military of Atlas. Not that he needed to know that.

She was a lady of many secrets, which according to her books, made her incredibly hot.

Elroy certainly agreed with those books. However... it wasn't like that contraception method was infallible. So it was still recommended that he used condoms, Blake getting pregnant would be a pretty big disaster...

Counterpoint. Doing her raw would be awesome.

As Elroy lined himself up, he decided that he would follow his second train of thought. It sounded a lot more reasonable than the first if he was being honest with himself.

Blake moaned as he began. "Ahhh... Now this is the stress relief I need..." Elroy was starting slow, probably not still confident about the whole rough thing, but she didn't care.

Blake almost thought it was funny. She had once gotten detention from Glynda Goodwitch from participating in a large fight in the academy... what would happen if she got caught like this then? Expulsion?

The thought of it she made things better. Especially with the loud sound of the table shaking echoing through the library, increasing the chances of them getting caught.

She started panting. "You know, a little slap never hurt anyone..."

"I have a feeling you want them to hurt." Nonetheless, he complied, starting to slap her ass.

For Blake it was heaven. "You're right about that..." She wasn't a masochist, not really, or at least not an extreme one, but she liked the sound it made.

She began to wonder when she started to enjoy this type of play... it definitely wasn't her typical way of doing this. Maybe it was because she was stressed with all the secrets she was carrying? And she wasn't only talking about her ears which were hidden by the stupid ribbon.

She was an ex-member of the White Fang. Her parents were the leaders of Menagerie. If her husband learned of any of these pieces information, there was a chance of their relationship changing for forever, and probably not in a good way.

So it felt nice, being able to not hide the love her very soul felt for him.

Elroy began picking up the pace as he felt more comfortable. "Blake...!" You know...

If somebody had told the past him of a few days ago that he would be fucking a Beacon student like this he would have called them crazy. Or more accurately, he would have thought they were crazy and silently walked away.

"You're close, aren't you?" Blake shouted, probably way louder than she should have done. "It's fine, you can do it inside!" Even she became stupid in situations like this.

Elroy did not hesitate to comply.

And so the two stopped to catch their breaths... and their brain cells began working properly again. "Fuck, if we are caught like this we are so fucked." The legendary sage mode.

She nodded. "Yeah... let's move..." Girls felt it too! "We can... go read a book in a corner together or something...?" She was essentially asking to cuddle.

"Sounds... good to me." He would need to keep this day in mind.

Sex was about slowly learning the preferences of one's partner, and he had learned Blake apparently liked getting slapped in the ass and making a lot of noise in public settings. A productive day for his knowledge of his wives.

The two of them made themselves scarce, but Blake did raise a point. "By the way... please don't tell this to anyone."

"I won't." Obviously. It would cost her a lot after all.

"I'm serious. Don't tell even to my team, someone like Weiss might tell a teacher..." She hummed. "And Ruby can't keep a secret." And Yang could not keep a secret from Ruby.

Blake did not know Penny enough to comment on her, but she was pretty sure telling her would mean Ruby knowing about it a few hours after as well, just like with Yang.

He raised an eyebrow. "Okay. You got it." Right now he would do pretty much anything Blake asked.

In the end of things, he was just a guy who became compliant after fucking his wife.



//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////



"Take care out there, I'll be worrying..." His eyes widened. "Oh yeah, if any of you need Aura, don't hesitate to use mine!" It's not like he was using much of it anyways. Just the occasional training session with them.

Which would probably be ending now that he was going to leave Beacon and return to his job.

Ruby nodded. "Don't worry, we won't be needing it! Team RWBY is kick ass, we can take even super special dangerous missions!" And the headmaster apparently knew that too, which is why he had helped... bend the rules.

Yang covered her mouth. "Not that we are taking one!" Elroy did not need to know the truth. "And sorry to say hubbie, but your badass wife won't be needing a single drop of you." She blushed. "B-but she might take it nonetheless, so..."

Her gaze shifted to Penny. "You take care of him for us, 'kay?" Yang doubted he would be in danger, but it was nice to know he had some super bodyguard.

Penny gave her a salute. "I will eliminate any threats to his life with extreme levels of fire power!" She was authorized to do so... and even if she was, it was the duty of a wife to protect her husband!

Or was it the reverse...?

Yang grinned. "Good to know."

But then Ruby remembered that one time Penny completely destroyed the docks. "Yep! It's great! But please remember that gigantic laser beams leave plenty of destruction, Penny."

Penny nodded. "Yes, it's part of why they're so great at eliminating any and all enemies!" So she would not hesitate to use them.

Ruby shuddered. "I just hope they don't make us pay for any damages..."

Weiss shrugged. "I would handle it." Not by paying it of course, she would take them to court! "And speaking of me handling it, before I go Elroy, I want to at least give you some money so—."

He raised a hand. "Yeah, I'm stopping your right there..." He put that hand on her shoulder. "Weiss, I have handled myself just fine for years, I'll be okay." Especially since it wasn't exactly expensive to take care of Penny.

She pouted. "I would argue, but I have a feeling you're gonna be stubborn on this matter..." In the end she had to throw the towel. "Do try to not enter any life crippling debts while I'm gone, will you?"

He laughed. "I will try not to."

And that was that... it was time to say goodbye for a few day—.

"I can't take it anymore!" Yang exploded. Literally. "C'mere!" She pulled into a kiss by the scruff.

It was a quick thing, clearly done more by impulse than anything, but for her it was incredibly special. It was like the world around her had completely faded away, and all that remained was her and her husband.

For Elroy, it was kinda of scary, since she was on fire. But also kind of hot. In both a literal and metaphorical sense.

Once she released him, her fire became calmer. "There ya go! A goodbye kiss from your wife, y-you sexy bastard...!" She gave the air a fistbump.

He chuckled. "I certainly appreciated it—." He was cut off yet again.

This time by a sputtering Weiss. "This cannot stand! A Schnee is not left behind!" Thankfully her kiss had a lot less fire involved.

Ruby covered her face. "What a bunch of perverts!" Did no one have an appreciation for kisses in the cheeks on this community!? What was wrong with her team!? With her sister!? With her bestie!?

Penny frowned. "Shameful." Surprise attacks were no good.

Weiss took a step back. "T-there, I know there wasn't exactly a date involved, but..." This was a goodbye. Goodbyes were kind of romantic in their own way, weren't they?

He quickly alleviated her concerns. "There was no need for a date, Weiss... Though I would be willing to go on one with you... and everyone else at any time." He was literally their husband. Still, he was glad they were moving forward.

Yang pointed at Blake. "See that kitty cat? We are now equal!"

The girl who had stayed strangely silent until now, looked away. "Yes... equality..." She couldn't wait...

Once they were far enough from Beacon, she would tell them about the library. Without a doubt it would be the peak of her life.
