So this is a fanfic I've been writing with a friend of mine. I do Roy's POV while she writes Ed's POV ... I don't know whether she's going to post her Ed's chapter on ... I'll try to convince her though ^^ Her half is awesome, and musc more fun than mine is!

Disclaimer: I do not own FMA at all, I do own Roy's freakish affection for coffee though

Roy Mustang groaned as he reached to turn his alarm clock off. Was it 6 o'clock already? He opened up one eye to look at the clock and saw two tiny arrows telling him the time was indeed 6 AM.
He rose up and scratched his head, stood up and walked lazily to his bathroom. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and silently laughed at himself as he turned the water in the shower on. He knew he would get quite a few comments from his subordinates would they ever happen to see him in this state.
His hair stood up in the air - the perfect morning-hair - and he had big, black circles under his eyes. He was wearing a white t-shirt and black boxers. God, he looked awful.
He put a hand under the water, measuring if the temperature was just right. He smiled satisfyingly as he took of his t-shirt and boxers and stepped inside the shower.
He loved taking a shower, he felt as if it was easier to think while in it, as if the water washed away all nonsense that was irritating him and keeping him from thinking directly. Believe it or not, he had come up with many of his best strategies in the shower. It was his thinking spot.
Roy smiled at the idea as he rubbed some shampoo in his hair and then rinsing thoroughly. He was a man of great hygiene; he hated dirt. Dirty environment; dirty houses; dirty body. But especially did he HATE dirty laundry! He would wash his clothes every other day and fold it neatly, placing it in his chest of drawers.

Roy stepped out of the shower and began drying himself and then walked inside the bedroom, opened the drawers and browsed for a new set of underwear. He put on his uniform and neatly straightened out every wrinkle he happened to find while inspecting every detail in his mirror.

He walked downstairs and into the kitchen, sighing happily, as he looked at his coffee-can. How he loved his coffee. He took a big can full of the dark dust and shoveled some of it into the coffee-can.

As he waited for the coffee, he sat down by his kitchen-table and began putting butter on his bread, eating it, satisfied with the simplicity of buttered bread.

He locked his car as he began walking towards the grand building which he preferred to as 'work.' Roy Mustang always enjoyed attending work, he felt like one of these good city-citizens. Whom always try to do their best to support the system. And he himself too, of course.
Walking into his office, a set of subordinates was already sitting by their desks, either speaking on the phone, reading something of signing papers. Roy smiled as he witnessed their hard-work. He was a proud Colonel indeed. But suddenly, to his frustration, he saw that one desk was empty. And of course, it was that little pipsqueak's desk, Edward Elric!

"Oh, good day, Colonel." Riza said and saluted when she noticed that Roy had arrived, she'd been too busy talking to some nincompoop over the phone to notice him at first. Roy nodded in her direction and walked inside the office.
"Good day Lieutenant." Roy said and walked towards the empty desk he'd been eying since he arrived. "I see that our little Fullmetal alchemist decided it wasn't worth the try to arrive on time this morning as well." He said and sighed as he turned to his own desk and sat down and got to work.

Roy looked curiously at the door as he heard a weird, some kind of a conversation coming from the other side of it. He smirked and let out a small chuckle, he knew precisely who it was.

The same second the thought went through his mind, the door was opened and a short, blond-haired man with golden eyes walked calmly inside. But Roy could tell he was still breathing heavily from running to work.
"Oi, stupid Colonel! I'm here." The blonde said and saluted with an annoyed look on his face. The Flame alchemist smiled, this was going to be good. He looked up at Fullmetal and smiled sarcastically.
"Morning, Fullmetal. Good you could join us, even though you seem to be unable of waking up on time like the rest of us. And may I tell you that there has been a new item invented, it's called a hairbrush." He smiled sweetly as he saw Ed raising both hands up to his hair, as if realizing just then that he had forgotten to fix his hair before he left his home. A big shout escaped the young man's mouth.
"I knew I was forgetting something!" The other people present all started laughing loudly at Ed's foolishness. "Shut up, it's not funny!" Edward said with frustration
"Well, you've got to admit, Edward, that this is quite funny." Roy said as he let out a small chuckle. "So now, please tell us why you're late. Again." Roy crossed his hands and looked at Edward as he awaited his answer with a smile on his face, oh how he loved torturing that blonde youngster.
"Well I was dreaming of being a boxer, and I must've accidentally punched my clock. Because I woke up at seven thirty only to find my clock broken. Then my car broke down! And I ran all the way here and I accidentally bumped into Rebecca in the hallway." The Elric said while making extreme hand motions, trying to describe the events in as efficient way as possible.
"Fullmetal, may I remind you that you are not supposed to spend your time here flirting with your coworkers. The work we do here is crucial our nation and country. How do you think the civilians would react if they found out what our State Alchemists do while at work?" Roy raised an eyebrow at Edward, with a disappointment in his face.
"Well you're one to talk. You are the biggest womanizer I have ever met in my life!" Edward said with a killer glare dedicated to Roy and only Roy. Roy didn't let him catch him off guard; he merely smiled innocently at the blonde.
"Why, I don't know what you're talking about, Edward. I do my job just like the good citizen I am." Roy said and noticed Riza leaning towards Hughes, whispering something he was unable of understanding. He turned his head back to Edward.
"Why yes, you're the prefect citizen." Ed said as he put up a girly-face, fluttering his eyelashes with a girly-girly smile. Roy opened his mouth in astonishment as Ed giggled. He could've sworn he'd been looking at a female that moment.
He heard Jean and Breda laughing loudly at Ed's act. Roy turned to them and gave them a look telling them they shouldn't be laughing, unless they were interested in getting a bit barbecued. They stopped laughing immediately and were suddenly heavily busy with some paperwork.

"Oh my god Edward, you were almost like my precious Elysia there." Hughes said and smiled at the memory of his beloved daughter, Ed frowned in a weird way. Roy stared at them. First Ed, then Hughes, then Ed again, then Hughes again, and then Ed a little again, and so it went on for a couple of times.
"What? Are you thinking about something weird? You creep." Edward said and looked at Mustang with some kind of a kind of disgust in his face. Mustang stared at Fullmetal for a second, but then snapped out of it.
"Uh, well. Now, Fullmetal. Get to work, pronto." He said and snapped his fingers in the air as he himself returned to the paperwork lying on his desk.
"There is just one problem." Roy heard Ed say a bit awkwardly. The Flame alchemist raised his head in curiosity and saw the blonde pointing, he looked in the same direction his finger pointed and suddenly dropped his face. He'd accidentally turned Ed's papers on fire when he snapped his fingers. Falman and Breda had stood up and were currently struggling with putting the fire down, with small progress. Roy turned his head back to Edward, smiled awkwardly and muttered an 'oops.'
"Aren't you supposed to be the one with more control over your alchemy?" The sarcasm was obvious in his voice.
Damn that brat, he's 21 years old and he still hasn't changed a bit.
