RWBY – The madness of Lappland Yang boredom

Yang pov

( Five minutes before Tai arrived ho .)

' Father hasn't returned yet ? It's taking him a while .'

I thought , looking at the clock hanging in the room . At the sa ti I was listening for the sound of the front door opening . And while I was doing it , I also finished the last series of push-ups . When I finished them , I got up from the ground and wiped my hands of the filth .

Normally , I would not do exercises in the room because of Ruby , with whom this room I share . I really don't like to hear Ruby whining about how the room slls like sweat . Besides, doing exercises outside is much more comfortable . Well unless it's really cold , but then I exercise in the guest room or in the living room .

But now without being able to leave the room , except for the toilet breaks and kitchen . I had no other option but to exercise here . I don't take breaks because of sothing like this . It is necessary to maintain this habit , even if in my case these exercises no longer give much .

' However, leaving aside the fact that I have no place to exercise . The re fact that I can annoy Ruby with this and repay her a little for the fact that she has told on is satisfying and highly motivating . '

I thought , as a slightly mischievous smile crept onto my face . I deliberately left the windows on the room closed to amplify the impact . I didn't even sweat that much . Of course, it's not like it stinks here in any way . However, it should be enough , for my baby sister's sensitive nose to sense it .

' Besides , I also practiced because I had nothing to do while being locked up here . Repeating math and history is already getting boring for . '

I thought , looking at the books on my bed , all of which were school books . Upon seeing them I sighed with flustration . Knowledge was not a problem , I do not consider myself dumb , my grades do not indicate that either . I also never had problms with learning nor have I ignored studying . My father would not allow it , therefore besides physical training , he also kept my head over the books .

Still , I'a more practical, hands-on learner rather than a bookish, theoretical student . Reading books is not my favorite activity . I generally don't like to spend my ti on such intellectual stuff ,I am not a nerd like Ruby . I prefer to go out on the town to have fun , fight or ride my Bumblebee .

Coming back to the subject of books, however . I'm not stupid , I just don't like reading , especially I don't like reading and repeating sothing I already know .

' If it was new knowledge , sothing I don't know , or sothing interesting . Then perhaps I could still try to get into it .'

I thought , stretching after the exercises . And the only thing that aroused my curiosity in these books was reading again about the history of faunus and a biology book describing faunus . The reason for my interest in this topis shud be obvious . However, these topics , were only as extensive as the school thought necessary .

But eventually I also got bored with that too . Reading for several hours is tiring even if the topic does appeal to you . Now however , without a scroll or TV I have lost any form of entertainnt . That's why I've been exercising .

' But now I'm even bored with that too . '

I thought , a little bit resigned already . I just finished exercising . Although I could continue to exercise , but even that has already bored . After all, how many exercises can you do before you just don't really want to do them ? I can't just do push-ups all day long . This also applies to other exercises .

' I should have a sumr break . I should be able to go out to the town and have fun . I should ........ But I fucked up '

I thought , annoyed . But I didn't fight this punishnt or look for a scapegoat . No one was to bla here . At least no one but myself . That's why I didn't try to cheat in the punishnt or sneak out of the grounding . It wouldn't make sense . After all , what would it bring ? If my father found out he would only get even more mad . .

In such a situation, it wouldn't just end with a grounding . Knowing my father I would lose my motorcycle , all my money and any possibility of contact with other friends . .

Instead of runing , why didn't I just use the scroll ? After all it is literally on my desk for use in case of an ergency . I could try to use it and just pretend I hadn't done anything when my father returned. He would have no way to check if I did anything on it .

Yes , I could . But should I ? I just don't want to erode father's trust . Lying to father's face is the last thing I want to do . It is awkward , and even if it works out I feel awful afterwards . Besides, Uncle Qrow always can say when I laying .

' And most importantly . Father is right and I ssed up . I'm not going to argue with it or worse, lie to him . I'll just get over the punishnt until I go to Beacon . Or at least until Lappland texts ....... If she calls at all .'

I thought as discomfort forced its way into my mind . In order to fight it I distracted my thoughts with sothing else . To do this I approached the window . From which I could see the Shed in which Ruby had been sitting for so ti , working on sothing . Most likely she work over her scythe .

Thinking now about this little red dwarf , who had told on , annoyed imnsely but I could not be angry at her .

' I'm the older one , I should be the wiser one . '

I thought , ignoring the fact that I exercised with the windows closed just to upset her . Sothing that was very petty and very childish but satisfying .

Hoping that she would not blow up anything , I turn away from the window and looked around the room , which was already cleaned up by . Seeing nothing to do , I sighed and walked over to the bed . Taking the books off the bed , I lay down without caring that I had just exercised .

' In the end , I didn't sweat that much . '

I thought while lying down with my hands clasped behind my head .

Yang : " Just hold out until Beacon . And in Beacon we will et again with Lappland and Blake ....... "

I said to myself feeling a sudden awkwardness when I again recalled my accident with Lappland. Thinking about it always ended with an image of vomiting on Lappland .

' How I supposed to regain a dignity and look her in the eyes after sothing like that ?!! '

Frustrated I took one of my hands from under my head and covered my eyes with my forearm .

Apart from this unpleasant mory , I had a lot of sober ti to think about our whole situation and my feelings for Lappland. I thought through everything about the situation between us and realized that I may have been too fast and too pushy .

In just two days I decided that I had fallen in love with her. Which wasn't exactly a lie, but it wasn't the truth either. I am infatuated with her appearance and a superficial glimpse of haracter . I learned only a few things about Lappland . I practically don't know her and she doesn't know .

I have talked more with Blake , her friend than I really talked with Lappland herself . We are strangers . We have known each other only two days . I don't know anything about who she is , what she does , her dreams , her ambitions . I just assud a lot of things about her without knowing if it was true at all . Upon further reflection Blake's comnts about Lappland state also appear to be much more serious .

' I should be more reserved but as usual I got carried away . Now in her eyes I must be sothing like those annoying jerks who only look at my boobs and try to hook up . '

I thought rembering how I always felt when it happened to . Now conscious of my hot blood I decided to change my approach. First I will get to know Lappland thoroughly, talk to her herself and ask Blake more about Lappland so as not to co across as ignorant or to misunderstand sothing .

But first, I need to have a chance to talk to Lappland in the first place. Taking my forearm from my eyes , I looked at the ceiling thinking about the best approach to my first conversation with Lappland after the incident . This one will certainly not be comfortable after what happened , but it must take place .

' But perhaps I could turn it into a joke ? '

I thought about it, but I imdiately gave up this stupid idea . Instead, I groaned , while wiping my face with my hand. Thinking about it logically the first thing that ca to mind to solve this situation was Blake . The only person , who knows Lappland.

Yang : " However, Blake said that everything should be fine. So an apology and a present should be enough ? "

I asked myself in words quite unsure of this choice . However, again, what else could I do ? However, my train of thought was interrupted by a noise coming from downstairs . The sound of a door opening . It must have been Father, who had just returned . Or uncle Qrow, who had already returned so ti ago but was now perhaps leaving .

How do I know that Uncle Qrow is in the house ? I heard his voice when he was talking to Ruby about sothing. Although I couldn't hear what they were talking about . But now it must have been father or uncle . After all, Ruby is in the shed and I didn't see her leave . And there is a noise from the shed all the ti , so Ruby is still working there .

Yet if it was a stranger , I'm sure my uncle will take care of it . Fortunately, I didn't have to think about it a mont longer when the noise started coming from the kitchen .

' It's more likely father ' .

I thought, having a hunch. Which after a mont was confird when Father ca and knocked on the closed door of my room.

Dad : " Yang dinner . "

Said father , and I got up to take the food from his hands . Opening the door my father's gaze t mine . In his hands was a bowl with yesterday's dinner heated just enough to be warm .

Dad : " Have you eaten anything today ? "

Asked father , as I took the bowl from his hands .

Yang : " Yes . I'm not two years old dad . I can still go down to the kitchen to eat . "

I said rolling my eyes . My words may have co out a little cold and an but I don't like being treated like a child . My father just smiled and then looked around the room from behind the door fra.

Yang : " Rubi is in the shed . "

I said turning around and walking back to the bed to sit on it and eat .

Dad : " I know , I heard her when I ca ho . "

Said the father after which he looked around once more and left , closing the door behind him . Without thinking too much about it I ate , put my plate back on the cabinet next to the bed and lay down hoping to fall asleep . And lying like this I didn't even pay attention to the ti , when suddenly there was a knock on my door again .

Yang : " You can co in " .

I said without rising from the bed . With my hands folded behind my head , I looked at the opening door , through which my father and uncle Qrwo entered the room . But sothing was wrong . The atmosphere that they brought with them was not the least bit normal .
