"Sir?"
"What do you want, Jean?" Roy grumbled, papers flying all around him as he rapidly signed them and threw them in to the out-box. "Can't you see I'm busy?"
"You wouldn't be busy if you didn't procrastinate." 2nd Lieutenant Jean Havoc said with a smile, cigarette moving to one side of his mouth to the other.
"If you want to lecture me on my work habits, the door is right there." Roy said, taking a frantic peek at the clock while pointing at the door with his free hand. "Lt. Hawkeye lectures me every day; I don't want to hear it from you too."
"Yeah, I kinda guessed from the ' Things that give Riza a headache' list on the notice board." Jean said. "Did you know that you and your procrastination is at the top?"
"Goddamnit Jean, what do you want?" Roy yelled, slamming his hands on the desk and looking up at the blue-eyed man. "I might have to incinerate you if you don't' get to the point." He opened the top right-hand drawer slowly and rather menacingly, revealing his white ignition gloves. Jean stood up straight, realizing that he should either get on with whatever he had to say or face the Colonel's fiery wrath.
" I had a dinner and a play planned out for my girlfriends and I, but she couldn't make it." He said. He rustled through his pockets for the tickets. When the man found them, he put them on the desk. " I thought you might like to go with Lt. Hawkeye."
Roy picked up the tickets, reading the information on it. " 'Romeo and Juliet, the classic love story.'" He looked up at Havoc and said with disbelief in his voice. " You cant' be serious!"
Jean shrugged,saying " You don't have to go if you don't want to. The dinner is tomorrow at 8:00 pm at Ruber's Aeurgoan cuisine under the name Havoc. Enjoy."He left the room to eat lunch with Breda, Kain and Falman. Roy sat back down and continued sighning, wondering in the back of his mind exactly how he would ask Riza to go with him.

Okay, so this is the first bit. It's a little short, but I hope you like it enough to want to read the rest, which will be put up as soon as I can type it.
