The Dance Of Love (RWBY/FATE)

{THIRD PERSON POV}

Dinner had started 20 minutes ago... where are her two other children?

Neither Mordred nor Jaune is one to miss out on dinner, Mordred because she actually like eating and Jaune because even though he never say it, it's clear that Jaune enjoyed the company of his family while eating.

Luna is seriously worried now because they had been Gone for close to 11 hours now... she is debating to herself if she need to tell Miles to start a search party for her two missing kids.

She knows that Mordred is strong enough to defend herself and no one in the town would dare to harm those two courtesy to Jaune's kindness.. but still.. if they play in the woods then they could get ambushed by grimms....

But just as she is about to open her mouth to tell Miles to go and create a search party, she hears the front doors opening.

"Is that Jaune?" Saphron asked her which she nodded and look at the entrance to the kitchen.

"I hope.." she really do hope that it's them because Oum's know what she is gonna do if it's not... she probably gonna cry... but after that? Well.. she may be called the Saint of Orleans but that doesn't meant that she can't throw hands, she was a hunter for fucks sake...

After hearing the sound of footsteps, Jaune and Mordred walked through the entrance and Luna breath out a sigh of Relief.

'Thank God... '

Luna then look at her children and sees Mordred completely fine but Jaune is a little pale and also a little sweaty.

"Are you okay Jaune? Did you get a cold?" Luna then tried to stand up but Jaune quickly shakes his head before he follows Mordred and take their seat on their chairs next to each other.

"Its okay Mom... Mordred and I just raced each other here... so I'm just kinda tired from running.m and I think I need to drink some water...." he let out a tired chuckled.

Running? Raced? She knows that she should be happy that her children get along well but isn't this unfair for Jaune?

Jaune is a normal 12 year old boy while Mordred is just a couple years away from joining a Hunter academy... and unlike Mordred who had unlocked her Aura, Jaune doesn't....

She need to have a talk to her Daughter because at this point, she need to know that her brother isn't as strong as her... 'I thought Miles had drilled it into her about just how different she are compared to a person with no Aura... I also need to talk with Miles because clearly.. his teachings doesn't stick...'

She discrettly pinched Miles thigh just enough to activate his Aura and making him flinched in pain.

'We'll have a talk later.' Her eyes communicate to him which he replied with his eyes too. 'What did I do? I was just eating!? I'm minding my own business!'

She pinched even harder. 'That's exactly the problem!'

Miles then stop pinching Miles's thigh before she look at Mordred and give her a smile that made her shivers in fear and confusion about why is her mother looks like she's about to give her the biggest grounding of her entire life.

"Mordred... We'll have a talk later okay..." Luna is so scary that even her other thinks that it was them that their mother is mad at.

'What the fuck did I do!?' Mordred's thought is as easy to read as an open book because it's plastered all over her face.

"Come on Mordred... lets eat..." Just as Jaune is about to plate his plate, Mordred took over and plate his food.... which greatly confused Luna because maybe the others doesn't took notice at this.. but she does....

It was usually the other way around.. Jaune Plating Mordred's food rather than Mordred's plating his... this Is weird.. Maybe Mordred felt guilty for challenging Jaune to something he could never win...

'Maybe I should not ground her for an entire week.. now that I think about it.. it'll be bad for Jaune too considering that if i do that, Jaune would feel alone... he could maybe invite the others.. but it would still feel different to him considering that Mordred is his favorite..' She then let out a sigh. 'Maybe punishing her by making her mow the lawn would be better..'

"So Jaune.. how was your day?" She snap out of her thought as she hears her sweet daughter, Jeanne, Asked Jaune.

"It was.... great...." Luna listen closely and considering how tired Jaune is.. he looked like he have a lot of fun with Mordred.

She should sometime go with them just to see what's up, now that she thinks about it... she never really did go with them whenever they are on their outings.. she should remedy that..

<=======]==¤

Okay... now Miles is going to make the most important decision of his life.. which is... should he ask Mordred now while they are eating... or should he ask Mordred Later in private after they are done eating...

On one hand.. he could risk Mordred starting a fight with him because she would get angry at him for asking her about what place does Jaune likes to go to.... rightfully so.. considering that he had failed his duty as a father to the point that he had to ask one of his children to know more about one of his children... that's...his father would had beaten him black and blue for this because Miles know for a fact that His father would know all of his grandchildren favorites.. from places too food.

Shit... he doesn't even think that he knows about what is Jaune favorite foods.. that's bad..... and what of Jaune's favorite drinks? Maybe he like apple juice more than orange juice.. or does he likes grape juice above all else? Double shit...

Yeah.. he really need to be a better Father cause God damn.. the more he thinks about it.. the more he feels like shit knowing that he really failed.. like really really failed at being a father to Jaune... no wonder Mordred love having fights with him..

How could he blame her for that? He deserve it....

The voices of his children managed to pull him out of his thoughts especially when Mordred And Jaune stand up, shit! He lost his first option!

By the time he is standing, Mordred and Jaune is already on the stairs and he had to Jog a little to catch up to her.

"Mordred, Wait..." he asked her calmly as if he wasn't panicking for a sec then.

Mordred look back before she position herself between him and Jaune.. and it hurt him deep inside.. but once again.. he deserve this kind of treatment from her..

"What do you want?" Mordred words cut deep into his heart but he is a little confused on why Mordred hadn't start shouting or anything.. its like she is holding herself back from shouting... well he wouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, he'll take whatever blessing he could take.

"...can... can we talk? Just the two of us?" Shit.. he doesn't know how to word it in any other way... he really isn't good at this or talking in general...

"Talk? Well whatever you want to say to me, you can say to it Jaune too." Mordred glared even harder at him.

"Mordred.... please..." he really hope that Mordred would understand but sadly.. he may had said the wrong word..

"Please? Please!? PLEASE!?" She got right up to him and jab her finger on his chest. "Please!? Is that all you have to say!? Did Jaune said please when you stopped his training!?" She shouted at his face and he can feel some of her spit landing on him.

"Fuck no, he didn't say please!" She then pushed him chest. "You fucking coward!? Don't you dare say please to me you fucker!"

Her voices is loud enough that Luna and the others had come to know what the fuck is going on. "Miles! What the fuck is going on!"

"I was just tryi-" "this fucker wanted to pull me away so he can talk to me about something! Why the fuck would I want to talk with him!? I got better shit to do then listen to whatever bullshit he is going to say!" She cut him off before he can explain what had happened to his wife.

"Miles..." now it's his wife's turn to glare at him.. which.. shit...

"Wait.. let me explain..." but Mordred cut him off again.

"Explain what? Explain that you wanna ask me something but you don't want Jaune to also hear it!?" She then tried to push him again but stopped when Jaune put his hand on her shoulder.

"Mordred...." Jaune softly Called out to hear before he lean in and whispered into her ears, but whatever he is saying works because it calm Mordred down.

But just as he thought that everything is alright and he have a chance to Ask Mordred about what is Jaune's favorite and what not..

Mordred decided otherwise because she grab Jaune by his arm and drag him upstairs. "Don't fucking talk to me or my brother!" And when they both are out of view, everyone downstairs can hear the door slam closed.

'Shit.' That was what Miles thinks as he feels his wife's hand on his shoulder. 'I really should had worded my words better to Mordred...' But sadly.. he is too late to regret it.

<=======]==¤

'Shit shit shit shit' that is what Mordred could think as she drag Jaune up the stairs and as soon as they are out of sight from the others, she quickly carry Jaune with a princess carry and run as steadily as she can while carrying Jaune.

'Shit! I should had ignored him and don't stop walking! Why the fuck did I not ignore him!? Now look at this!' She look at Jaune who is breathing softly but his face is a lot paler than before.

When she was about to literally throw hands with her father, Jaune whispered to her that his heart is painful again.. and fuck Miles... and would prioritize Jaune first then fucking fight with her Father.

She doesn't know how but she have a really fucking suspicious that they're father only worsen Jaune's condition!

Because before they come inside the house, they take 10 to 20 minutes break just outside of their house so Jaune can feel better before coming in..

But as soon as Jaune enter the house and arrive at the kitchen.. his face become pale.. he wasn't pale before.. whatever this is, it must have some shit to do with their father.

When she reached Jaune's door, she open it and quickly get inside before she kick the door closed and she noticed that she unconsciously used her Aura to kick the door.. thankfully the door didn't break.. or flew of its hinges.

"Mordred.." Jaune called out to her again.

She quickly and gently lay Jaune on his bed before she replied to her. "Yeah?"

"Sorry."

Really.. Jaune and his stupid face just had to say sorry again? What the fuck is wrong with this kid.. he didn't ask to have a heart problem like this. Nor did he fucking ask to have such an asshole of a father...

She will gladly lay all the blame solely at the feet of their father because she don't know how.. buy she knows that their father had a hand in this shit...

Is it logical? No... will she care that it doesn't make sense considering that their father is away at the time? Also fuck no..

"Why the fuck are you saying sorry for, Jaune? You didn't do shit. Okay?" Mordred is genuinely getting tired of Jaune saying sorry cause why!? He didn't do shit!

"Just.... sorry... you had to waste your time taking care of me..." her words only managed to give her a headache.

"Jaune.. listen to me.. we had gone through this conversation fucking hundreds of time by now... i help you because I want to okay? And also because that you are my little brother... no other reason than that..." she really... really... really really hoped that her words will get through Jaune now... him and his guilty complex.. its like a matchmade in fucking hell with how much it annoyed her to no end...

"It... it looks like dad.. was.... trying.... to talks to you.. I ruined it..." he told her in between deep breath which she know that he forced to get into his lungs because his heart is killing him right now.

"Hey, you didn't ruined shit, if whatever he want say cannot be said around you then I don't want to hear it... its either he say it with you there or he don't say anything at all okay?" She really hoped that it get through Jaune's frankly too stupid head this time.

"Okay.... it just looks like he is trying to say something important." Jaune tell her which only made her want to pull out her eat.

She want to grab his head and shout at him until he gets it that she doesn't care about how important it is! Their father could fucking tell her that she could go to Beacon tommorow and she wouldn't give a flying fuck about it! Fuck him! He isn't important to her in a single bit compared to Jaune!

But... she knows that she couldn't yell at Jaune like that right now.. Jaune is still in pain and the last thing she want him to have a headache because of her..

"Jaune... whatever he want to say.. no matter how important it is.." she then poke a finger to Jaune's chest softly. "Will never be as important as you to me okay? And please for the love that is holy... get that through your head." Her words managed to get a chuckle out of Jaune.

"Now.. shut your mouth and go to sleep... I don't wanna hear you waste oxygen again..." Jaune then move to the side of the bed and making space for her, and she chuckled before she get off the bed and over them under the blanket.

"Thank you, Mordred..."

"No need to thank me, dumbass."

After a few minutes of silence and just as she is about to fall asleep, she hear Jaune talk one last time before he himself fall asleep. "I love you...."

She made sure that Jaune is asleep before she replies back. "I love you too, Jaune.."

<=======]==¤

"Miles... tell me.. what the fuck did you do." Luna grill her husband inside their bedroom because right now.. she is pissed... if not for Jaune then Mordred would fight her Father physically again...

She thought that she could trust Miles when he get up from his seat and go after Jaune and Mordred..... she must know better that he would fuck it up in some way or another, Miles was never good with his words and whatever he said to Jaune or Mordred-- she would he her money that its mordred --well whatever he said is enough to make Mordred almost blows up if not for Jaune stopping her..

"I... I just wanted to ask her something..." Miles tell her which she for a fact know that isn't all that happened....

Ugghh.... this man is eating away at her patience.. because fuck! Just tell her what he told them!

Luna grit her teeth and clench her fist. "...and tell me.. what exactly did you told them..."

"Well.. I told Mordred that I want to talk with her alone..." Miles explain to her.

Talk with Mordred alone..... Luna.. Calm yourself down before you hit this stupid buffoon on his face...

"And what did she replied with?"

Miles scratch the back of his head and look away. "Well.. she.. she told me that if I wanted to say something to her then whatever it is, I can say them in front of Jaune too."

Is Miles stupid? Of course she will reply with that.. did he doesn't use his brains?

But She knows that isn't enough to make Mordred as angry as she was... so what the fuck did Miles said after that.

"And then? What did you tell her after she told you that."

"... well.. I said her name and said please.."

Please... and considering that the whole family heard what Mordred shouted next.... he... oh God... she really want to slap him now...

"I don't think I did anything wrong... I asked her calmly and clearly... I didn't antagonize her and i-" *SMACK*

Miles head snapped to his side as his Aura activate and shield his body from the SMACK but it doesn't do shit to lessen the pain from the slap itself.

"Luna...."

"You didn't antagonize her?! The fuck do you meant by that!?" She glared up to him and grab him by his collar and pull his head down. "You antagonize her from the moment you tried to exclude Jaune infront of her!"

What the fuck is he thinking doing that to Jaune in front of her no less!? He should know that Mordred won't take any shit that come to her little brother.

"I thought you know by now? Mordred won't ever let you dismiss Jaune like that!" She then let go of him and push him away before she start to walk around the room.

"Luna...." she cut him off again before he can say another word.

"You promised me that you would be a better Father to them, MILES! THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!"

"Luna...."

"You promised me Miles.... you promised..." she can feel her eyes starts to wetten with tears because it hurt her.. it really hurts her heart whenever Mordred and Miles fought with each other... Years ago before Miles stopped Jaune's training.. Mordred and Miles were basically a twin.. they could match each other energy even with Miles much more quiet disposition.. and Mordred actively seemed her father approval..

And look at them now... Mordred couldn't even stand being innthe same room as her father unless Jaune is in there literally acting as an anchor and voice of reason for Mordred...

How did the years go so wrong...

She stopped in he tracks as she feels Miles's arms wrapped around her...

"Luna... I really tried, Luna..." he tried to convince her but it's not enough..

"Well you didn't try hard enough!" She cried into his chest."

"I did tried, Luna.. I was trying to have a one to one talk with Mordred because I want to ask her about Jaune..." His words managed to make her stop crying for a second and make her lift her head up from his chest and look up into his eyes.

"Explain or I'm going to bite you."

With the threat in the air, it made Miles want to explain it even more. "Well I wanted to asked her about what is Jaune's favorite food.. places.. everything that Jaune likes..."

"Why?" Yeah... why? Even she is kinda confused on why? Is it good that he want to know more about Jaune? Yes... but couldn't he just ask Jaune himself? Why Mordred?

"Well.. I planned to go out with Jaune tomorrow and have a father and son time..." he explained to her...

Father and son time... that.. that is good.. Miles really did try.. he kept his promises.. even though he is a little dumb for trying to ask Mordred that..

"You do know that you can just ask me that questions right? I could had asked either Jaune or Mordred those questions myself and they won't get suspicious." She then rest her head on his chest before she explained even further. "and Mordred would probably be more a lot cooperative with it considering that she would absolutely want to make her little brother happy if I tell her that I am planning an outing for Jaune... all I have to do was not mention you and she would spill the bean..."

"That... I... yeah... I didn't think of that..." he confessed which honestly doesn't suprise her...

"You're lucky I didn't marry you for your brains..."

"Well... its my charm right?"

"You wish you absolute buffoon."
