you'd better stop
and try to think
look what you're doing
oh, ruby
§§§
They called her Ruby Blue. Famous for her red hair and blue eyes, sassy nature and her talent for wrapping boys around her finger. Until, she slipped a little.
It all started when a certain blonde-haired American wandered into the bar she happened to be at that night. Most girls gaped as he made his way through the crowd to stop beside her, as she glanced at him sideways and half-lidded, forearms resting on the countertop.
"Buy you a drink?"
At this, she blinked, blushing. Around her, many gaped. Ruby Blue turning Ruby Red? Unheard of. It was certain to be the talk of the small town the next day, perhaps within the night. Her throat dry, she managed to breathe out a few words.
"Ah. . . why not?"
Another collective gasp. She let boys get so close to her but never go so far as to spend money on her, which was strange as she could have raked in a whole lot of cash.
"May I ask your name?" She then asked, regained composure.
"Me? Alfred F. Jones, at your service!" He punctuated this with an easy grin.
§§§
nobody cares anyway
if you play the painted lady

"Seems you're pretty popular here, hm?" He leaned in a little closer, reducing her back to choked, gasping-for-air state.
"You could say that?"
"Really? And what would your name be?"
Someone called from the crowd with a laugh "Ruby Blue!"
Another choked sound from her as she looked at the floor.
§§§
you never get to
give it all you've got
cause you forgot
to take it to the top
oh ruby blue
§§§
She was increasingly reduced to mush as Alfred persisted with his questions, until his hand was resting on her waist and her face was all but on fire.
"Your cheeks match your hair, Miss Ruby." She smiled wanly, shrugging at this point. "I hear you've never been heartbroken before." She looked up at this, blue eyes wide.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
He smirked at that.
"Maybe you'll experience it soon." He said simply, and the crowd around them watched it like it was a soap opera. A little fire lit in her stomach then. She was known as Ruby Blue. She wasn't going to let that name get trampled on.
Breaking away from his grasp, she matched his smirk with one of her own, before kissing him squarely, whispering, "You wanna bet?"
Those that had gathered had their jaws on the floor by now.
"There's the Ruby I was looking for."
"My name's not Ruby Blue. It's [f/n]. But only you can call me that."
§§§
look what you do,
oh ruby blue
