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

Family Fools.

Ruby and (Y/n) gave him a fist bump, even though it was harder for (Y/n) to do so due to him still carrying his wife like a newlywed brie.

it wasn't as if he hated it though, same with Ruby. in fact both of them liked the situation they were in. to Ruby, (Y/n) was strong and held her firmly and protectively, making her feel loved beyond compare. for (Y/n), Ruby was soft as she cling to him, her hands digging into his shirt yet still soft to the touch at an impossible degree. she fit just right in his arms and weighed practically nothing, making it easy for him.

Qrow looked over the two with a small grin on his face happy to see such a loving relationship between his two favourite people in the world. yeah, that's right. his two favourite people. never the less he walked away, leaving he two there, watching him leave.

"and suddenly you're reckless makes sense." Weiss emit, standing besides the two of you now. "plus your dependence on (Y/n)"

you couldn't believe it. Ruby couldn't believe it. none of your friends could believe the result that had befallen the match you had just watched.

'team CFVY....lost?' was the collective hivemind you and your friends had.

how was it possible? Yatsuhashi lost to Mercury? how? he was so incredibly powerful! then we also had Coco becoming schizophrenic and talking to nobody? what happened that match? how did team CFVY crumble so quickly and easily? all of you thought that they would reach the single rounds for sure, yet...they didn't.

they had lost. and badly too. like, really, really badly...you felt bad for Velvet who had watched the ordeal, then quickly left without saying a word the moment the match ended. hell, she was gone so quickly and silently that you didn't even know she WAS gone!

you couldn't fathom how they lost, yet it was a sight you couldn't deny unless you were delusional. it was a grand upset, a clear sweep from the opposing force. there were no words which could have described just how shocked you were, how shocked Ruby was. hell, the both of you left the coliseum utterly flabbergasted, unable to form proper sentences or thoughts together at the result you had just witnessed.

you had blinked a numerous amount of times to make sure you weren't just seeing things when the match had ended, yet no. it did end. it ended so swiftly, so quickly and so unceremoniously for team CFVY.

arguably one of the strongest teams in Beacon academy got sweeped. they got annihilated, dare you say it, the match was decided before it even goddamn begun. they never stood a chance and that was clear. they weren't in control that match for not even a second.

but alas, the match was over, and the breaks had begun. so now here you were, not at all knowing what to do. you had split off with ruby who went to talk to uncle Qrow who was apparently going to their dorm room, but the reason you didn't go was because you had this weird underlying, almost gut feeling that you were going to be the next battle. you wanted to go see Qrow sure, but whatever this feeling was urged you to go to the training room, grab your duo's partner and get started on training for the next battle right now.

so, with nothing else to do, that's what you did. you grabbed your duo partner, you forced them into the training room, and you had them fight you in mock battles until the both of you were exhausted. they apricated it though, glad to see their team leader be so serious over this competition, a world-wide opportunity to show off your skills and present yourself, throw yourself out there. 

you used this opportunity of the mock battles to iron out any more kinks and faults to your fighting, making note of how open you were off a punch, how slow you were to respond post gun shot from your pistol, how your movements may seem repetitive or easy to predict.
