(Torn's POV)

I am just walking around Vale by myself. Tomorrow is the dance, but I could care less about it.

Torn: I can't believe I had to help team RWBY preparing the dance because of (Y/N). An absolute waste of my time.

I walked past an alleyway and a woman with black hair and wearing red walked out. She got in front of me, causing me to stop in my place.

Torn: Get out of my way.

Cinder: No need to get feisty. I just want to talk.

Torn: About what? I'll send you flying if you waste my time.

Cinder: Come with me.

She walked back into the alleyway and I followed. After a bit of walking, she stopped and turned to face me.

Torn: What do you want?

Cinder: It's about (Y/N).

I got a little mad. I clenched my teeth, but stopped.

Torn: What about him?

Cinder: I am part of a group. I want you to join it.

Torn: What is this group?

Cinder: Long story short, we want to take over the world. I need your help to deal with (Y/N). He will be a huge obstacle in our way.

Torn: So you need my help to get rid of (Y/N)?

Cinder: Yes, basically.

Torn: I like that idea. I'm in.

Cinder: Good. I have a plan for tomorrow night.

Torn: The dance?

Cinder: Exactly. This is the plan...

(Readers POV)

I am walking down the halls of Beacon. People have been asking other people to the dance, some as friends and others as dates. I only want to ask someone as a friend. I don't think I'm good at romance.

(Y/N): I wonder who I should bring. It would be weird to bring Torn, plus he doesn't like me that much. Natura said that she has someone already. Team RWBY probably have tons of people asking them, they are pretty popular.

I started to think about anyone else. I don't want to ask someone I don't know. Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't need to bring anyone.

Sky: Hey (Y/N).

I jumped a little by the sudden voice behind me. I turned around and saw Sky behind me.

(Y/N): Oh. Hi Sky.

Sky: So, how is finding someone to bring to the dance going?

(Y/N): Not so good. Everyone I can think of most likely already have someone to bring.

Sky: Weeell. I know someone you know that doesn't have anyone to bring.

(Y/N): Really? Who? It better not be Torn.

Sky: It's not Torn. It's a girl.

(Y/N): Ok.

Sky: She is a Faunus.

(Y/N): Alright.

Sky flew behind me and picked me up. She looked at me while slightly off the ground.

Sky: And she can fly.

(Y/N): Oh. You want to go to the dance with me?

Sky: I'd thought you'd never ask. Yep, I'd like to go with you.

(Weiss's POV)

I am walking around and looking for (Y/N). I want to ask him to the dance. He is the nicest person, outside of my teammates, that I know.

Weiss: Where can he be? I have been looking for thirty minutes.

I walked a bit more and saw Sky holding (Y/N).

(Y/N): Oh. You want to go to the dance with me?

Sky: I'd thought you'd never ask. Yep, I'd like to go with you.

I guess he is asking Sky. It's fine. He said he would only bring someone as a friend. I walked away.

Weiss: It's fine. Why should I be worrying so much?

I can't help but feel a little hurt.

(Time skip) (Readers POV)

It is the night of the dance. I have to wear this tuxedo. Sky is helping me with the tie. She is wearing a black slim dress.

(Y/N): Does the tie have to be this tight? It feels like it's choking me.

Sky: Yes it does. You have to look nice.

She took a step back.

Sky: You look good.

(Y/N): Thanks. You look nice too.

Sky: We should be going now.

We walked out our dorm room and we made our way to the ball room. We walked in and Yang greeted us. She is wearing a simple white dress.

Yang: Hello you two. I hope you enjoy the dance.

Me and Sky made our way to the dance floor.

Sky: You know how to dance?

(Y/N): A little. All my knowledge comes from watching tv.

Sky: Then you should be fine.

We started to dance and it was pretty fun. I started to look around and I saw Torn dancing with a black haired girl with amber eyes. They stopped and the girl quickly left. Weird.

Sky: Hey.

I was snapped out of my thoughts and I looked at Sky.

(Y/N): Huh?

Sky: You zoned out there.

(Y/N): Sorry.

Sky: It's fine.

I started to look around again and saw Weiss sitting by herself.

(Y/N): Sorry to cut this dance short. I need to do something.

Sky: Alright.

I walked away from Sky and went up to Weiss.

(Y/N): Hey Weiss.

Weiss: Hey (Y/N).

She sounded a little sad. I sat down next to her.

(Y/N): Is something wrong?

Weiss: I didn't get asked to the dance by someone.

(Y/N): How? You are an amazing person. And from my understanding, pretty important too. How could no one ask you?

Weiss: A lot of people asked me, but I rejected them. I wanted to go with a specific person, but they already brought someone.

(Y/N): Oh.

I started to think about what I can say to cheer Weiss up.

(Y/N): You shouldn't worry so much.

Weiss: Really?

(Y/N): This is just a simple dance. It's not like it's the end of the world because you didn't go with the specific person you wanted.

Weiss: I guess.

She still sounded sad. I got up and held my hand out to her.

(Y/N): Let me help you get your mind of it. You want to dance?

Weiss looked up at me and smiled. She stood up and held my hand.

Weiss: I would love to.

Her spirits instantly went up. We walked to the dance floor together and danced for the rest of the dance.
