When His World Fades
He's my world, my everything. He's stubborn and conceited and headstrong. And I love him. He's sweet and caring and so damn beautiful, inside and out. And he makes living my pathetic life worth while.
We fight, a lot. I usually win, except for when I let him. It's how I tell him through every argument and disagreement we have. He should know by now that no matter what I do, I can't fix everything. But what I fail at, he succeeds and vice versa. We truly complete each other.
He's so willing to help me up when I slip and fall. I'm grateful, but he shouldn't have to do it. All the times he's saved my life when I've tried to end it. I try to shatter my world, and he steps in and reminds me that's its worth piecing back together. I swear, god sent him as my guardian angel. But I don't want him to have to carry the burden of my mistakes.
I want to carry his. So that he no longer has to. It's a heavy load on him, mentally and physically. But he acts so strong, for the both of us. I want to be just as strong as him. I want to be able to help piece his world back together if ever he needs it. I want to be stronger so he doesn't always have to be. That's what I'm here for. The only reason I live. I live for him, because he needs me even if he won't admit it. When his world fades, I know I'm the only one he wants to bring it back into focus. I know he loves me.

Edward walked into Roy's office, tears streaming down the soft skin of his cheeks. Roy stood and the boy ran over and wrapped his arms around the older man. Roy slid down the wall until he sat on the floor and pulled Ed down into his lap, gently rocking the boy back and forth as he wiped his tears away.

This was one of those times, and Roy, the man who loved Edward more than anyone else in the world, was fully prepared to help his love wipe away the tears and bring his world back into clear focus. Because when Ed's world shattered, so did Roy's. This was the clearest picture of true love Roy could imagine.
