Ruby was generally opposed to attending most of the dances that were held each year, it was generally all of the same shit with the same people getting shitfaced, but Emma enjoyed them so it wasn't an avenue that she could write off completely. Besides, when the blonde had shown up earlier with a palm full of pills and a grin on her face, Ruby was powerless to say 'no' to her and an evening of fun. It was Saturday night, and if they overdid it, they could always sleep in the next morning. Sunday afternoon would be more than enough time to catch up on anything that she had to work on before Monday morning came.

She had stepped into her boots and grabbed a dress, and hadn't look back since. She was definitely feeling rather good now that the evening was under way, and whatever those little blue tablets had been, they were amazing. Dancing had never been quite so exhilarating before, and Ruby had just about worked herself into collapse before a slow song came on, giving her a break and a minute to catch her breath. In all honesty, being there with Emma was the most special and important thing, even if they were both pretty fucked up. She was glad to have a little moment of quiet.

Lost momentarily in staring over at some of Emma's hair hanging over her shoulder, Ruby lifted her head quickly as her girlfriend spoke to her, making a little face of mock disgust as her nose was kissed. She seemed to consider the offer for a minute or so, before ducking her head in and kissing the blonde's neck amorously. "Sure," she agreed, squeezing her slightly in the embrace she had around her waist. They were already pretty drunk by now, there wasn't much left to be had in that flask, but she wouldn't argue with alone time. Leland had been giving their weird looks anyway, which was sort of wigging her out in her smashed state. "You look.. like, well. You do look really beautiful tonight, just in case I forgot to tell you," she murmured against the other girl's neck, kissing it again.

Emma tightened her arms that she had draped around Ruby's neck a bit as Ruby leaned in and began kissing her neck. It surprised her in the best way, but she felt her knee's going weak as Ruby's lips left burning trails across her skin. In her current state she was pretty sure that she would have just collapsed if Ruby wasn't there to cling to. She let out a small hum, as Ruby murmured against her neck and kissed it again. The vodka, Emma mused, wasn't going to get finished if she kept on kissing her neck that way.

"You might have mentioned it," Emma replied breathless. She dragged her nails lightly down the back of Ruby's neck, and noticed that she had tilted her head back instinctively when Ruby had started kissing her. "I love hearing it though."

She pulled away from her girlfriend reluctantly, and grabbed the girl's hand. "We should go find a nice, quiet spot to finish that vodka," she suggested, a hint of urgency in her voice. The pills had heightened her senses tenfold and she knew that if they stood there like that any longer, Leland would be shoving his way over here to pry them apart. "Bathroom sound good to you? Or should we risk sneaking out?"

"Well, I feel that one of the best methods of learning something is repetition and repeated exposure.. so you're beautiful," she murmured back, suppressing a shiver as the other girl gripped the back of her neck. Ruby was already grinning manically, every response that Emma made to her lips only made her repeat her actions, sucking lightly on the other girl's collar bone just above the top of her dress as the blonde girl pulled them apart. She barely had time to pout before her girlfriend was grabbing her hand, and Ruby blinked some of the disorientation away as she was forced to stand on her own again without leaning heavily into the other girl in their waltz.

"Bathroom," she decided easily enough. It was one place that Le couldn't follow them if he was feeling particularly protective after their last little display, and mostly it was just girls checking on their make-up and fixing their hair before going back into the dance, it wouldn't be too busy. She was still far too high to deal with her brother, or anyone else. She just wanted Emma. Squeezing the other girl's hand, Ruby had already begun leading their way through the crowded hall and toward the girl's washroom along the side. When they entered, Ruby was pleased to see that it was entirely empty for now, and she wasted no time in turning around to face Emma. Grinning, she reached over to take the flask out of the blonde's sweater pocket, pushing her back against one of the stall doors as she took a long swig before handing it back over.

Emma followed Ruby through the crowed obediently, keeping a wary eye out for Le as they went. She was expecting him to pop out of nowhere as he had done earlier and yell at her for being too close to Ruby. She was relived when they made it to the bathroom safely however, and even more relieved to find it completely empty. Grinning back at Ruby shyly as the girl pushed her back against the stall door. She took the flask from Ruby and finished it off before putting it back in her pocket.

"Come here," she demanded, pulling Ruby to her and kissing her softly. She wrapped her arms around her girlfriends neck again and nipped lightly at the girl's lip. "Wanna pick up where we left off?" she asked mischievously. She played with the hair at the nape of Ruby's neck and gave her a coy smirk.

Wasted as she felt, it was hard for Ruby to keep her brain entirely on task, but she only allowed Emma to kiss her for a few moments before beginning to pull away gently. Just the tug on her lower lip was enough to cause her to falter again, but she was quickly back on schedule. "Patience," she instructed the blonde, before groping around in her jacket until she had produced her wand. Pointing it toward the door, she cast a couple of silencing charms and something to lock the door. It would give them a few minutes, unless a teacher discovered it was locked or something.

They hadn't been caught yet, however, and sneaking around had sort of become their specialty over the last few months. Even now that they were openly together, it was at times convenient to fall back into old habits. "Now we can pick up where we left off," she murmured back, biting her lip briefly as Emma played with her hair, making her shiver a little despite some of the hesitation she was feeling.

Teasing and fooling around was one thing, but every time they got close like this, things only came closer and closer to escalating each time. Until Ruby ended up panicking anyway, something that she was still immensely embarrassed about doing to her girlfriend every time they got too intimate. "Careful," she warned in a gentle slur, dipping her head down again and returning her lips to Emma's neck once again, focusing on pressing kisses to that for now rather than worrying about later.

Emma had immediately pouted at Ruby pulled away from her, telling her to be patient. Ruby knew better than anyone else except for maybe Amelia that Emma was horrible at being patient. It was one of the girls personality flaws, but she tried her best to be every time Ruby asked it of her. Squirming a bit, she watched as Ruby secured the door and smiled as she watched the girl bite her lip. Ruby really was the most amazing person she had ever met. Even something as small as the girl briefly biting her lip caused Emma to well up with feelings of love for the other girl. It was just so inexplicably Ruby, and Emma couldn't get enough of it.

She ran her hands through Ruby's hair as the taller girl pressed kisses to her neck. It was causing her knees to go weak again, and she let out a small whine as the other girl's lips once again made trails across her skin. She raked her nails across the bare skin of the back of Ruby's neck once again, and tilted her head back against the stall door. "Don't be afraid," she whispered to the other girl. She couldn't ever tell when Ruby's unease set in, but it always seemed to when things started heating up like this. Emma figured it must have something to do with the events of the summer, and she always respected Ruby's anxieties. It wasn't like the blonde girl didn't have plenty of her own that Ruby dealt with every day.

As frustrating as it was to get blue balled by her girlfriend, Emma would wait it out. Her life mission was to make Ruby smile, and if Ruby was afraid, then it would be doing the complete opposite. Emma pushed a hand up the back of Ruby's jacket, and ran her fingers over the girl's back to try and reassure her if she was feeling any worry. "We can stop anytime Ru."

Ruby was never one to want to show her softer weaknesses to anyone, even Emma. Out of the two of them, she needed to be the tough one, the one who took care of things. Whenever she had a moment of weakness, it just made her feel guilty, even in this case when she sort of knew it was coming. She was just drunk enough to ignore it, snorting loudly at the suggestion from her girlfriend. "I'm not scared," she insisted, biting a little roughly at Emma's neck and nudging her side a little through her dress. "I can handle this."

That was basically her mantra, Ruby didn't think much existed out there that she couldn't handle, but this was pretty serious. Still, it was different, it was Emma and not Victor. She didn't have any reason to be afraid, and she told herself this as her fingers shook just slightly, skimming over the fabric of the other girl's sweater, pushing it back off of her shoulders with a smile.

"I.. don't want to stop. Just stay cool," Ruby informed her a moment later, pulling back from the blonde's neck and kissing her cheek quickly. She felt pretty messed up still, those pills were still keeping her feeling more alive than ever. Each thought was deep, and every action seemed huge, and she was only slightly grinding her teeth as she held up her dress a bit before dropping to her knees.

"We are so gonna get caught," she laughed, though if sober the thought would have mortified her more readily. Public indecency was the kind of thing Mars got written up for, not her. But the charms on the door would give them enough time to compose themselves a bit anyway. Placing a hand on each of Emma's thighs, just below the bottom of her dress, she slowly began to push the dress up, resuming biting her lip gently while she worked. "Beautiful, right?" she reminded her quietly, kissing the inside of her leg slightly, still grinning.

Emma shuddered as Ruby bit down roughly on her neck and let out a quiet moan. She dug her nails into Ruby's shoulder blade, trying her best to keep her composure. Even with the charms on the door, they had to be careful. "O-okay," she managed to get out as Ruby pushed her sweater off her shoulders and closed her eyes. The cold air of the bathroom hit her skin instantly, and she shivered a little as Ruby's kisses drifted towards her shoulders. Her eyes snapped open when Ruby stopped, kissing her cheek quickly before dropping to her knees.

She wanted to protest, even if this was exactly what she wanted, she was still worried about Ruby. Emma didn't want to make the other girl feel pressured into this, just because she thought Emma wanted it. She was about to voice her concern again when Ruby laughed, and placed a hand on each of her thighs. "T-that's what makes it more fun, right?" Emma stuttered out, her vocal function seemingly leaving her momentarily. She wasn't sure if was the pills, the alcohol, or the fact that Ruby was so...close, but she was having a harder time than usual paying attention.

"Y-yeah, beautiful," she agreed absentmindedly. She felt her knees weaken instantly again as Ruby kissed the inside of her leg and gasped softly.

If there was one thing Ruby needed with sex, it was to be in charge and control. It made her calmer. She knew it had something, possibly everything, to do with her relationship with Victor. She had never been in control, never really been in a decision making position, with him. Eventually, his touch had almost become toxic to her, and there was nothing she could really do about it. If he wanted to fuck, then they did and stopped asking questions or to wait, but everything was different with Emma.

She knew Ruby's weaknesses, knew that the brunette needed to have a good grip on things, on her mind and on their situation. Reminding herself again and again that this wasn't the same, no matter how drunk and out of control she felt, she was in control. Emma trusted her, and she trusted Emma, and it was nothing like anything with Vic had ever been. Consent, and actual desire, went a long way.

"Most beautiful girl I've ever seen," she informed her promptly, her nails digging into the flesh of the blonde's thighs for just a split second, before her fingers were sliding higher instead, lifting the hem of her girlfriend's dress with them. Smiling slowly, Ruby looked up at Emma, making eye contact for a second before breaking it.

"Ready?" she asked, rather rhetorically as she was already in the process of slipping her fingers into the waistband of Emma's panties. It wasn't as if she hadn't done this before, it wasn't that she didn't want to, and she made point to repeat to herself that it wasn't the same. Being with Emma was perfect, never tainted. Leaning forward, she kissed at the other girl's thigh again, growing a bit drunkenly impatient. She wanted her, and quite badly.

"Ru," Emma gasped as Ruby's nails dug into her thigh. She cupped Ruby's cheek and looked down at her, biting her lip. Ruby was always saying things like that to her, things that she had never been able to convince herself of. Sometimes she felt like Ruby was just saying things because she was required to. At the same time, when Ruby looked at her like that, she knew that Ruby meant it with all her heart. "I love you, so much."

Emma shuddered as she felt Ruby's fingers slip past the barrier of her waistband. She was ready, god, she was more than ready. The second kiss hat Ruby pressed to her thigh made her shiver, and she ran a desperate hand through Ruby's hair, tugging at it with want. "R-ready," she reassured her girlfriend. Trying to keep the desperate tone out of her voice.

That was all of the reassurance that Ruby really needed, the feeling of the blonde's finger pulling through her hair sending shivers down her spine, making her grin crookedly. "I g-guess I didn't even really need to ask," she whispered back, worrying for only a split second about whether or not her charms on the door would hold up, as she leaned forward still tugging at the other girl's undergarment.

"Le didn't totally scare you away from me?" she giggled after a moment, chewing her lip a little before gently hooking one of Emma's legs over her shoulder, supporting the blonde as she was forced to lean back more heavily on the side of the stall.

Emma bit her lip, letting her head bump back against the stall. Ruby could be such a tease, and she was pretty sure that the other girl knew it. She let out a impatient groan, and pouted. "Ru!! Stop teasing!" she whined. "Of course Le didn't scare me away! He's a big teddy bear."

She tilted her head back up to look down at her girlfriend. "Even if he wasn't, he couldn't scare me away from you. I wouldn't let anyone stop me from being with you, y-you're it for me Ru. I don't want to make anyone else smile everyday but you."
