This was written mostly for Chibimoot because she's my inspiration and it would never have been written without her and if it were, I would never have posted it. This is hopefully going to be the first fic that I finish. I'm planning about 15 chapters, sound good? We need more Edvy fics and I'm not saying that mine is going to be great but hopefully some of you like it X'D Just some. Please forgive my grammatical and general mistakes… there's bound to be a bunch.

Disclaimer: I'm a broke $$ Bizatch who owns nothing… Enjoy anyway.

When I wake in the morning I want to blow into pieces

I want more than okay, more than just okay

When I'm up with the sunrise, I want more than just blue skies

I want more than just okay, more than just okay

-More than Fine, Switchfoot

Chapter 1

More Than Fine

"Brother, get up!" Alphonse yelled on the other side of the door, effectively waking the previously sleeping teen. "Ed, I'm serious, get out of bed!" The blonde turned over in bed and glanced at his clock. 7:30am "Edward Elric! You have enough time to get a shower and get dressed so GET UP!" The teen still in bed sighed in relief when he heard footsteps, signaling the retreat of his younger sibling.

Slowly and to his obvious reluctance he climbed out of the bed and made his way to the washroom down the hall. Twenty-five minutes later he was situated at the table downstairs getting himself breakfast. Alphonse walked into the kitchen cause Ed to look up from his toast. "'Mornin', Mom."

"Don't get smart, Ed." Al scolded. Ed grinned raising an eyebrow. "Are you ready?" Ed nodded, as his mouth was full of his breakfast. "Good, because we're leaving." Al started walking toward to door. "Now."

Ed sat in his second class, which was English, doodling a butterfly on his notebook. Soon the bell rang and Edward rushed out of the classroom, eager to get to his Science class and as usual was the first on in the room. "Early as usual, Mr. Elric." The teacher greeted him.

"As usual, Mrs. Izumi," Ed nodded taking his assigned seat.

The second bell rang and soon more students were starting to mill into the room. One student Edward didn't recognize from the previous year or the beginning of this year stopped at the desk and Izumi pointed to the seat near Edward's. The blonde student nodded and made his way to the desk beside Ed.

"I'm Russell." The golden eyed boy was informed as the other teen sat down. "Um, the teacher said that," the teen paused, "not to be rude, but she said that well, you were kind of a loner during school and that you liked science a lot too and you could, I don't know, show me around the school?" Russell asked more than stated.

Before Ed could reply Mrs. Izumi's voice cut through the voices of the many students. "Alright, grade 10's sit down and shut up!" Ed grinned and Russell gave him a funny look. Izumi had always been his favorite teacher, ever since last year, in his first year of highschool when he had met her.

The rest of the class went by quickly and Ed sighed in disappointment at its end. As the students shuffled out the door Ed gathered up his stuff slowly, not wanting to go to Physical Education. He noticed the new student standing at the door, waiting for him. He sighed and looked over at Izumi with a 'why me?' look and she smiled. "You don't want to be late for your next class Edward, get a move on." Ed shook his head with an over-dramatic sigh and walked toward the door, gesturing for Russell to follow him as he left the room.

"We have Gym." Ed said shortly, just as the bell went. "And our teacher is going to freak if we're late." He said grumpily and started jogging through the hallways, looking behind him to make sure Russell was following.

At lunch Ed lead Russell to a table in the corner where he introduced him to the people he hung out with that weren't in their class. "This is Winry," she waved and Russell smiled and nodded, seemingly uncomfortable with all the other people. "This is Havoc and this is his- You guys mind if I tell him?"

Nobody answered his question but Havoc grinned and put his arm around the short dark haired teen beside him, "This is Fuery." He said simply.

"I'll take that as a 'Yes, you do mind,'" Ed mumbled. "That's Maes," he said pointing toward the tallest of the people at the table. "Breda, Falman, and that pervert is Roy. Avoid him, he bats for both teams so be careful or he'll end up hitting on you."

Russell looked at Ed, completely unsure if he should sit down or even be around these people. Suddenly Roy scoffed, "I'd watch out for Ed, he doesn't even have preferences but nevermind, I don't even think he's hit puberty yet." Ed's face went red, either from embarrassment or anger, but hell, who could tell?

"Whatever," Ed rolled his eyes and sat down. Russell looked around awkwardly for a moment before he cast a glance at Roy, and sat down beside Ed. "They won't be in any of our classes because everyone but Fuery is in grade 12, Fuery is in grade 11 and he isn't in phys ed."

"Ed shouldn't even be in your class, he's actually 16 and he should be in the 11th grade but he failed grade 2 for falling asleep." Maes stated.

"It was boring!" The blonde whined. He was ignored as everyone started to eat.

"How was your day?" Ed asked his brother as they walked home from school. Alphonse shrugged and the blonde gave his brother a look. "Something wrong, Al?"

"It's just, well Wrath was assigned to show a new kid around and he ditched me all day for him."

"So? He was just showing the kid around." Ed didn't see the problem.

"He told me that he was going to go to Fletcher's house for supper and so he won't be coming over today." Al gave a sour face. "He was only assigned to show him around the school and yet he's even doing stuff after school with him."

Edward understood his brother's jealousy but he was sure that Wrath wasn't ditching Al on purpose. "Hey," he said softly, "Wrath hasn't always been so nice. You're the one responsible for changing him. Before he was such an ass, just like his brother, but you've really changed him."

Al nodded but didn't seem too reassured. "Why don't I drive you over to Wrath's later?"

"No, that's fine. I'll see him tomorrow and see if he wants to do anything this weekend."

"Alright." A thought came to him and Ed voiced it, "How about you come with me. I'm going to be eating at a friend's house tonight. I'm sure it would be fine."

"That sounds better than staying home and cooking for myself." Al nodded. "I guess I'll come."

"Great, I'll give him a call."

"Hello," A young voice answered the phone.

"Hey, is Russell there?" Ed asked.

"One sec."

"Hello."

"Hey, it's Ed."

"Oh, hey! What's up? You still coming?"

"Yeah, I was wondering if my little brother could come over too? I don't want him to be home alone."

"Sure! Be here in about an hour. I gotta run! See you soon!" Before Ed could say bye Russell had hung up and the phone line clicked.

Ed drove him and his brother to Russell's house, making a few detours as a result of Ed's inability to follow directions. They parked their beat up Pinto behind the SUV in the driveway and after a brief smile and the "I'm glad you're finally interacting with people, Brother" comment from Al they made their way to the door. Russell answered the door grinning. "You're late!"

"Got lost." Ed mumbled and Al laughed quietly.

"Well come in." He stood to the side and let them into the house. "I'm assuming you're Ed's little brother." He said to Al when they were in and the door was closed.

"Oh, yeah, I'm Alphonse."

"Russell." He returned.

Edward ignored them while he looked around the house. Most of the living room, which the doorway led into, was full of half-unpacked and empty boxes. "Yeah, we're still unpacking." Russell stated. Just then a smaller blonde wandered down the stairs.

"Supper ready yet?" He asked.

"Oh, guys this is my little brother, Fletcher." He gestured his brother over. "Come meet Ed and Al." Fletcher made his way through the maze of boxes from the bottom of the stairway to where the other teens stood.

"Hey," he said simply.

"Hey, I'm Ed. Judging by your voice, you're probably the one who answered the phone." Fletcher nodded. "This is Alphonse, my little brother." Ed introduced them as he looked at his sibling only to find him glaring at Russell's younger brother. "Al?"

"Huh, What?" The younger of the Elrics stared down at his brother. "Sorry, I just zoned out."
