Death Won't Do Us Part (RWBY x malereader, Ruby x malereader.)

New Adventures.

although it did work in the end so hey ho.

as you pressed the last key, you finger lingered on it.

making the last note cry out for a period of time.

those new to music would dare to class that as a mistake.

something that ruined the tune so much.

but those who had a brain.

those who appreciated music.

knew it just made it just that more captivating to listen to.

once done, you looked up and then around.

everyone was staring.

you shrunk slightly.

'did i do something wrong?' you thought.

your tail stopped wagging.

'did they hate it? am i not good at playing the piano? was Ruby just telling me i was to not hurt me?'

you looked down and bit your lip.

you felt uncomfortable.

you were proven incorrect by Onyx himself.

"THAT WAS AWESOME!"

you straightened back up and looked around.

most people were smiling.

although some were gritting their teeth or scowling or even glaring.

they may have whispered, but you heard them.

"freak."

"whatever, it wasn't that good."

"what a dumb thing to like."

"attention seeker"

Ruby watched as you used your semblance.

two small hands sprouted from your hand and very slowly went to your ears, pulling them down.

they began to be submerged into your head.

she quickly walked up to you and softly touched your ears, stopping the hands from submerging them.

you looked at her, small tears beginning to brim in your eyes.

you see, due to a large amount of racism you have experienced within Remnant, you were insecure about your faunus appearance.

hence why you named your semblance Dysmorphia.

if Ruby hadn't told you that she adored your faunus features, both your tail and ears would have been submerged into your head years ago.

you would still have them, they just wouldn't be visible.

she softly smiled at you.

the hands that tried to submerge your ears subtracted back into your head.

"please, don't remove them. i love them very much." she whispered to you.

she lightly pet your ears, causing your tail to wag in happiness.

by this point, everyone else was looking away and trying to make their own little musicale score.

they knew it wouldn't be as good as yours, but they still wanted to do as best as they could.

and so, noticing her chance, she leaned down and gave you a quick peck on the lips.

you gave her a closed-eyed smile before standing up and leaving the piano.
