(Jaune's POV)

At the Diner called "Celé's Diner"

I sit outside of the restaurant, waiting for Nora, Ren, and Ruby.

Now that I think about it..I invited Nora and Ren who are a couple, but me and Ruby are single.. Oh god.. I hope she doesn't think this is a date! What did I do? Oh no, no, no, no, no!

"Hey Jaune!" I hear. I look up and see Nora holding Ren's hand while smiling. Ren is wearing his usual school outfit while Nora is wearing a short pink dress with orange flats.

"Oh- Hey guys!" I stand up quickly and fake a smile to hide my embarrassment.

"What's wrong?" Ren asks.

"Oh, nothing, just-just thinking about..life," I lie.

"Look man, I understand its a hard time right now. I get it, but please think positive," he says, leaning over to my shoulder and patting it.

"Thanks man," I reply.

"Uh- guys, What about Ruby?" Nora mentions.

"Oh! Uhm,"

My phone buzzes. I turn it on and notice I have a new message. I tap on it and its Ruby.

"She just texted me! She said "I'll be there in a sec, Yang is driving me here on her motorcycle so look out for us"" I say.

"Should we go in and order a table?" Nora asks.

"You two do that, I'll wait for Ruby," I answer.

"Okay! We'll see you in a bit!" Nora says and then walks in the restaurant holding Ren's hand.

I sit back down on the wooden bench and relax. I decided to just wear my black hoodie with the bunny logo on it. I didn't care if people judged me. I also just wore blue jeans and my regular sneakers.

I sit and wait for Ruby to arrive..
