"You only like me because of my hair, don't you!"
A hysterical Edward Elric wasn't really something Roy wanted to deal with after a long day, late night and no food. Edward, yet again, thought that he had been cheating on him with some tall bimbo with big breasts and, quote, 'long luscious bleached blonde locks'. He had then moved on to accusing Roy of only liking him because his hair looked like a girls and he was short.
"Edward, your getting hysterical." Roy took a clam sip of his soup. This was, after all, a regular occurrence and Ed hadn't left him yet.
"Hysterical! I'm merely stating what your to scared to mention. You're really just scared of me. That's the only other reason why you date me!"
Stage 3 reached earlier then usual. Roy checked his watch. If this was indeed going faster then usual he could safely assume that he would be in bed in 20 minutes max. Ed still didn't know how predictable he was.
"Now you just want to be out of my company as soon as possible. Do my needs really annoy you that much? I don't understand why I stay with you. You treat me like crap, you never think of showing me some form of acceptance. You still insist on treating me like a child and you don't respect my need for love and devotion Roy!"
Maybe 20 minutes was a bit too optimistic. This was venturing into unknown territory. Stage 3B perhaps.
"Edward, you know I love you, I've told you countle-"
"That's exactly it Roy. You've told me, but you've never shown me. You find no time to hug yet you find ample time to spare in which to criticise my height. After a while it starts to hurt. And right now it hurts a lot."
Tears were starting to build up in his eyes and he wiped them away furiously with his normal hand. Roy started to rise to comfort the 19 year old.
"No don't! Stay there!" Roy froze.
"Why? Scared I might molest you or something?" Ed sniffed and wiped his nose, starting to shiver.
"You always avoid me when I'm cleaning my 'mail. And your always on these false dates with girls. Why can't you just stay home?" Roy moved towards him again and pulled Ed's hands away from his face. Slowly he knelt in from of the sobbing boys chair.
"I promise you with all my heart and soul that not one single on of those bimbo's mean anything to me. You're the only one that brightens up my day and you're the only one that can truly make me smile. You're the one I chose to love above all others and to me, you are perfect. From your mail all the way up to your gorgeous long naturally blonde locks, I love every inch. And I want ti to stay that way."
Ed launched himself off the chair into Roy's waiting arms, sobs subsiding. He wrapped his arms around the older mans waist and buried his face into Roy's shirt, giving him a light squeeze.
"I really do love you Roy…"
Roy squeezed back, feeling the shirt of his uniform dampen.
"I love you with all my heart and soul and if you ever want me to show you, all you have to do is ask."
Ed's face emerged from the front of his uniform, and through the tears came a gorgeous smile.
