Royai Country Sonfics
Okay peeps, to avoid plagiarism and lawsuits and account-freezing and other such nasties, I gotta say that I don't own FullMetal Alchemist, or any of the characters except for my OC's May and Ben. I also don't own the song "Cleaning this Gun (Come on in Boy)". Now that that's over with… On with the fic!
Roy Mustang contentedly cradled his newborn daughter, May, in his strong arms. Next to his sat his lovely blonde wife, Riza Mustang.
"She's perfect…" those words, so simple and pure were the only thing that the new father could say. His wife smiled and said, "She'll be a real knock-out when she grows up. The boys will love her." Roy stared into her beautiful deep hazel eyes and fluffy tufts of black hair when a thought occurred to him. Girl + boy= sex. He, with a very Hughes-like expression, said, "No boy is going to get my girl! I'll burn them to a crisp!" The blonde next to him cracked up in laughter, he looked so much like Maes. She supposed it was only a matter of time until he bought a camera.
Roy looked fondly through the review mirror at his sleeping wife and child in the backseat of his car. He turned the radio down as another song came on.
The Declaration of Independence
Think I could tell you that first sentence
But then I'm lost
I can't begin to count the theories
I've had pounded in my head
That I forgot
I don't remember all that Spanish
Or the Gettysburg address
But there is one speech from high school
I'll never forget
Mustang's mind wandered back to when he first started dating Riza. Hawkeye-sensei (Riza's father, and Roy's alchemy teacher) was damn scary, especially when his daughter was involved. The man had motioned Roy into a dark room with two chairs and a hanging light. Like an interrogation room… the black-haired teen had thought wryly. The older blonde man sat down in a chair and said,
"Come on in boy sit on down
and tell me about yourself
so you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That's what she'll get
ain't it son?
Hey y'all run along and have some fun
I'll see you when you get back
Bet I'll be up all night
Still cleanin' this gun"
Now at the time, that threat had scared Roy near-to-death. He knew Riza could shoot with 99.8 percent accuracy, and wasn't so sure he was interested in learning whether or not she'd gotten the talent from her father. But after a while, the threat became less worrisome, and when he married his girlfriend, the fear was gone completely. His teacher couldn't just shoot his son-in-law. He chuckled softly at how far he had come since those days, then realized that he was in the position Hawkeye-sensei had been all those years ago.
12 years later…
Twelve years had passed since May's birth and the baby had matured into a lithe black-haired, hazel-eyed young woman. Already, she could shoot almost as well as her mother, and do alchemy nearly as good as her father. However, it wasn't too much longer until she would start to notice boys. It drove poor Roy up a wall. All he could think was:
"Well now that I'm a father
I'm scared to death one day my daughter
Is gonna find
That teenage boy I used to be
That seems to have just one thing on his mind
She's growin' up so fast
It won't be long before
I'll have to put the fear of god into
Some kid at the door"
And sure enough, when May turned 15, she brought a boy home with her. His name was Ben. The kid was 16, with messy brown hair and a spray of freckles. He was polite, if not a little talkative. Roy sized up his daughter's boyfriend, looking him up and down. He motioned Ben into a back room and sat down in a chair. Just like his father-in-law years ago he said:
"Come on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That's what she'll get
Now ain't it son?
Y'all go out and have some fun
I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Just cleaning these old gloves."
Mustang smirked inwardly at the boy's nervous expression. No doubt the kid was thinking about why exactly Roy Mustang was called the Flame Alchemist. Ben decided right then and there not to piss off May.
Now it's all for show
Ain't nobody gonna get hurt
It's just a daddy thing
And hey, believe me, man it works
Come on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That's what she'll get
Now ain't it son?
Y'all run along and have a little fun
I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Still cleanin' this gun
Roy smirked as he ushered the boy out to May. He called out to the two as they walked out the door:
"Son, now y'all buckle up and have her back by te- let's say about nine...thirty.
Drive safe."
Authors Notes:
I actually am pretty content with the way this turned out. I know that Riza's mom died, and that her father died later on so he couldn't have possibly attended a wedding between the two. This is kind of an alternate universe fic. I really liked the idea of Roy being a possessive father for his kid. The idea of him acting like Hughes made me smile, so this is how it turned out. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed it. I really like writing Songfics because I have a hard time coming up with inspiration on my own.
I'm thinking about adding more songfics to make this multi-chapter instead of just making a new story for every fic. Review if you have an opinion at all.
