I'm always awkward with story introductions, but I'll try my best. I decided to take the Edwin 100 Theme Challenge since I absolutely adore Edwin and I probably won't start to put my other fanfiction up for a while. Anyways, I'm doing them out of order, mostly because I'm evil, and I'll post a new chapter every few days, I promise! Please read and review.

Theme 74: First Snow

Winry looked out the window of her room as she held Ed's red coat close to her body. She could still smell his comforting scent, like he was right next to her. Winry wondered why Ed had to go down stairs all of the sudden. It was an extremely cold February morning, and her room was usually the warmest room in the house. The creaking of the door opening behind her back sent off a feeling of surprise.

"Ed…You scared me." Her face showed signs of relief.

"Sorry about that." He handed her a cup of hot coffee he had made. "I figured you might want this since it's so cold outside today."

"Thanks…" She took the deep blue mug from his hands. Looking down, she wondered why he had gone through the trouble. Winry couldn't remember him ever making coffee even once of his life. Since when did he even know how?

The blonde haired mechanic took a sip. Almost instantly, she spit it back out.

"What is this crap, Ed?" She exclaimed.

"What does it look like? It's coffee!" He replied.

"How did you make it?" She gave him a glare, pretty much expecting the answer she was about to get.

"With alchemy of course!" He said. Winry shoved the almost full cup of coffee right back into his arms.

"If you're going to make it, make it the right way! No alchemy!" She turned in the other direction. Ed stomped back into the hall.

"All right…fine. I won't use alchemy this time."

"Good."

He swiftly traveled down the stairs. Taking the coffee out of the cupboard, he though for a second. "This can't be too hard…"

Twenty minutes passed, and Ed still had no idea what to do. Pinako strolled into the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Making coffee for Winry. I can't figure out how to do it without alchemy!" He kept his eyes on the coffee.

Pinako sighed. "Let me teach you."

Soon enough, Ed was marching back upstairs with a fresh, new cup of coffee. He glanced back one last time. "Thanks, Granny Pinako." Pinako smiled at him as he reached the last step.

Strolling through the open door, Ed saw Winry's eyes focused on the outside scenery.

"It's snowing…" She whispered. Ed blinked twice wondering why she was so interesting in the snow. That is, until he stole a look as well.

"Yeah…beautiful, isn't it?" He placed the coffee on her nightstand. "I remember the first time I ever saw snow in Risembool."

"Eight years ago, right?" Winry was completely calm, almost hypnotized by the falling snowflakes.

"Yep, I guess so." Ed placed his hand on her shoulder. "I really wish we could have fun like that again."

Winry's head turned quickly for her blue eyes to meet his golden ones. She smiled.

"I don't see why we can't."
