Note
So, this idea came to me once the Whiterose discord server added a new channel. Specifically for hand holding Whiterose content. So I obviously had to do something.Come join the fun. https://discord.com/invite/whiterose-mafia

Ruby and Weiss are in their dorm, Blake and Yang are currently out getting some food for everyone. Weiss is at her desk studying, while Ruby is on her bed watching Weiss. She watches as Weiss’ hand glides across the paper with such speed that only Weiss can do.

Laying on her stomach, Ruby starts to think as she stares at Weiss’ hand. “Weiss?” Ruby said, with Weiss acknowledging her with a small “hmm?”

“I’ve been thinking…”

“That can’t be good,” Weiss said with a smile as she continued to write.

“Ha ha,” Ruby said, getting up. She turned to the window and continued. “I was actually thinking….do you think we should take our relationship to the next step?”

Weiss instantly drags her pencil across the paper as she quickly turns to stare at Ruby. The audible crack of Weiss’ back sounding throughout the room.

“Wh-w-wh-what do you mean the next step?” Weiss exclaimed while rubbing her back. “W-we’ve already recently started doing that! S-shouldn’t we wait a bit more?!”

Ruby sat there on her bed in thought. Yeah they recently started doing that not too long ago and while they use protection when they do it, she wants more.

“I know what you mean Weiss. But I think we’re ready. I really want to feel your warmth with mine when we do it.” Ruby blushed as she said that which in turn made Weiss blush.

Weiss silently pulled a glove out of her pocket and stared at it. “Are you sure we’re ready for the next step, Ruby? We’ve only been holding hands for a month.”

Ruby got off her bed and made her way to Weiss. She also pulled a glove out of her pocket. “When we’re out in public we can wear our gloves like everyone else. And while we are in private like in our dorm we can forgo the gloves and hold hands. What do you think?” Ruby asked.

“People would see us, you know the laws, full contact hand holding is for married couples. We’re still in school, so they’ll think we're degenerates!” Weiss whispered but she was looking at Ruby’s ungloved hand.

“Who cares what others will think! Weiss, I love you, and I would really love to actually hold your hand without wearing a stupid glove!” Ruby yelled in frustration. Weiss watches as Ruby paces around the room. She kind of agrees with Ruby. She would also love to hold her hand without using gloves.

Continuing to watch Ruby pace around Weiss sighs. “Alright, Ruby come here,” she said, causing Ruby to stop. “Eh?”

“You heard me.”

Ruby quickly makes her way over and Weiss puts her hand up. “We will only do this in private, no one is to know about this at all. Got it?”

Ruby smiled and started nodding her head happily. “Got it.” She reached out with her left hand. Weiss eyed it for a moment before slowly reaching out with her right hand, she stopped. Her hand very close now, taking a breath she finally reaches and links her hand with Ruby’s.

The instant tingle they both felt when they linked together. Weiss feeling the warmth from Ruby’s calloused hand and Ruby feeling the cold soft hand of Weiss just felt right to them.

“This is…” Weiss started.
“Yeah, it really is,” Ruby finished.

“You know…” Ruby started to tease. “We could totally get married now and do this everyday,” she had a big grin on her face.

Weiss’ face got beat red at that. “Ruby, we’re still in school.”

“Well then how about we get engaged now then?”

Weiss went wide eyed but didn’t say no. She actually started to think about saying yes.

Ruby was hoping Weiss would say yes. They stayed like that for a couple more minutes letting their thoughts wander.

“Oh…”
“My?!”

The girls were interrupted from their thoughts as they turned to the door. Blake and Yang were there holding bags of fast food. Jumping away from each other the duo blushing like crazy.

“THIS ISN’T WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!” The girl both yelled in defense.

Blake and Yang gave each other a look before Blake went over and set the bag of food onto weiss’ desk then turned back to the door.

“Come along Yang, let’s give them some privacy.” She said, grabbing ahold of Yang’s hand and leading her out.

There was a silence for a moment as Ruby and Weiss sighed in relief. Ruby looked at Weiss and lifted her right hand again. “Wanna do it again?”

“Of course you dolt,” Weiss immediately linked their hands again. They smiled at each other with blushes on their faces. Nothing could ruin this again. Until the head of Yang appears at the door again.

“Nice.”
