I didn't feel like going to work today. I had been up all night searching the streets of Central for the recently spotted homunculi. I sighed as I wrapped my red coat around me and hugged it tightly. It was snowing outside and I shivered as the cold air bit the exposed skin of my neck.
I may not have felt like going to headquarters today, but I had to. Today was a very special day for me. I walked past a shop window and stopped to look at my reflection. My golden hair, held back in a loose braid shone in the light that bounced off the snow. My red coat with Izumi's symbol on the back of it was covering my black jacket and leather pants.
My cheeks were flushed red with cold and I thought about what today meant. My face got redder and I stared at my flushed cheeks. The great Fullmetal alchemist, Hero of the people, Edward Elric was blushing like a schoolgirl.
I sighed and ducked my head, letting my golden bangs cover my face. I walked the rest of the way to Headquarters and opened the door to a very excited looking Hughes.
"CONGRATS ED!" he yelled, pulling me into a tight hug.
I gasped when the air rushed out of me and he quickly let go. "Um… thanks Hughes, I guess." He smiled at me and was suddenly pushing me into the building.
"Come on Ed my boy," he said as he pushed me through the corridors "You have a date!"
I groaned as I noticed everyone smiling at me, Havoc and Furey had huge grins on their faces and Breda and Hawkeye smiled at me. I was pushed all the way to the doors of Roy Mustang's office. Hughes stopped pushing me and turned me around to face him and the others.
"Have fun." He chuckled and I sighed. I turned back around and opened the door. I walked into the well lit office, the door had been closed behind me and I cleared my throat. Roy looked up from his paperwork and smiled at me. He stood up and walked over to where I stood.
Suddenly his arms wrapped around me and he kissed me lightly on the forehead. "Happy anniversary love." I blushed deeply and he chuckled.
"H-happy anniversary Roy." I wrapped my arms around him and leaned my head on his chest. I sighed in content and closed my eyes. As we both enjoyed this moment of peace I thought about out unusual relationship.
One year ago today, Roy had confessed his feeling for me, feelings that he had apparently been hiding for a while. I had been overjoyed, I had had feelings for the Colonel for ages and now I knew he felt the same.
Everyone had revealed that they had been waiting for them to get together, Hawkeye and Havoc even had bets running on who would confess first. We had both gone bright red.
I smiled and giggled into Roy's chest. He kissed my head "What is it love?" he breathed into my ear, making me shiver.
"I was just remembering when you first told me you loved me." I opened my eyes and looked up at him "That was one of the best days of my life." I grinned and he chuckled down at me.
"One of my best as well." He said. My smile grew and I closed my eyes as his lips brushed against mine. I parted my lips, inviting him in and his tongue swept into my mouth, it explored my hot, wet cavern and played with mine. He bit my lip lightly and I gasped. He took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.
Passion overwhelmed us and I tangled my fingers in his black hair. His hands moved down to my waist and he pulled me closer. We broke the kiss, both panting. His lips trailed down my neck and I moaned in want. He smiled against my neck and chuckled softly.
"I love how sensitive you are Ed." He whispered. His hands travelled upward inside my shirt and he pulled it off with the jacket. I gasped as his tongue licked over my nipple and I eagerly pulled off his military jacket.
Suddenly I was picked up and Roy carried me over to the desk. He pushed everything off the surface and laid me down gently. He continued kissing down my chest, playing with my nipples and making me moan with want.
His fingers quickly unzipped my pants and reached down inside, grasping my hard member. I gasped and his lips travelled lower. He pulled off my leather pants in one smooth pull, revealing my throbbing erection. His tongue played with the tip of my member and I moaned.
"God Roy!" I panted "Stop playing with me!" he chuckled and seized my length in his mouth. He bobbed his head slowly, then built up speed and I moaned in pleasure. I was so thankful that Roy had gotten his office sound proofed so that no one would hear us.
I felt myself climax and groaned at Roy. He grunted in understanding and licked up my length from the base to the tip. He chuckled and kissed me on the lips lightly before positioning himself above me. I wrapped my hands around his neck and threw my head back.
"Roy," I moaned "Hurry!"
Suddenly Roy thrust into me and I screamed in pleasure. Roy thrust in and out slowly and hit my pleasure spot every time, we had known each other for long enough that we knew each other's bodies like our own.
His thrusts increased in speed and I moaned loudly. My hips moved in time with his and my back arched up. My head was thrown back and I gripped Roy's hair as we made love passionately.
"Roy… ahhhh…. I'm gonna…" I felt myself climb towards climax again and He moaned as he felt the same build up in him as well. His hand pumped my member in time with his thrusts and we both climaxed together.
His seed filled me while mine spilled over us. We moaned and Roy pulled out. He collapsed, panting next to me on the large desk and I turned to snuggle into his chest.
"I love you Ed." He whispered in my ear. I smiled and snuggled closed. I closed my eyes and sighed in content.
"I love you too Roy."
-ROY—
After we had cleaned up my office and gotten dressed we got back to work. I sat on the couch with Ed snuggling in my arms. We both had paperwork in front of us and were reading intently when there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." I called and the door cracked open. Hawkeye peeked in and looked around. When she spotted us snuggling together on the couch reading paperwork she smiled.
"Colonel Mustang sir," she saluted, her slight smiled still on her lips "We would all like permission to enter."
I nodded my head, Ed looked up from his work in confusion, and I was also wondering why the lieutenant was being so formal.
Havoc, Breda, Hughes, Armstrong, Ross, Broch, Fallmen, and Al all walked in behind Hawkeye. They were all smiling and Armstrong was even crying. Al walked over to the two and sat down beside his brother.
"Brother we have a surprise for you two." He said, his grin grew and Ed frowned in confusion.
"Roy Mustang and Edward Elric, Flame and Fullmetal alchemists are now off duty." Hawkeye announced happily. We looked at her questioningly; she smiled and said simply "You have the rest of the day off sirs"
I smiled as I realised what they had done and watched as Ed figured it out as well. He smiled at everyone and threw his paperwork on the table "Does that mean we can do anything we want for the rest of the day?" he asked, his excitement shining through in his voice. They all nodded and I smiled as his smile grew, lighting up his whole face.
I stood up and pulled Ed to his feet. He looked at me and questioned me with his eyes. "Come on Ed," I said "We don't want to waste our day in the office do we?" Ed smiled more and I pulled him towards the door.
As I passed Hughes he grabbed my shoulder and I stopped. I motioned to Ed to keep going and turned to Hughes.
"Now you have a chance to do what you told me." He grinned "I hope it goes well."
I smiled at my old friend "Thank you Hughes," I said "you're a great friend."
He smiled and I walked quickly to catch up with Ed who was chatting excitedly with Al. when I caught up Al said good bye and I lead Ed to the car, I knew exactly where to take him.
-EDWARD—
"Roy," I looked over to my lover, he was driving us somewhere for our anniversary "where are we going?" He looked over to me and smiled that dazzling smile that always made my heart skip a beat.
"Somewhere special." He said simply. His answer and his smile were enough to calm my impatient thoughts. I sat back in the chair and watched as the buildings outside passed by in a blur. I closed my eyes, getting comfortable and waited for Roy to stop driving. When he did I went to open my eyes but his hands covered them.
"It wouldn't be much of a surprise if you knew where we were." I smiled and closed my eyes again. Roy could be such a romantic sometimes.
I felt his hands uncover my eyes and a piece of material covered them instead. I let him lead me through a building, never once bumping into a wall or anything. I trusted Roy completely and wasn't uncertain about my footing at all, I knew he wouldn't let me run into something.
I heard a door close behind me and Roy put his hands back on my shoulders. "Ready?" he breathed into my ear and I shivered in anticipation.
I nodded and I felt the blindfold slip away. I opened my eyes slowly and gasped in surprise. I was standing in the middle of a candle lit room. Books lined the walls in floor to ceiling bookshelves, a small library. A picnic blanket was laid on the floor, surrounded by candles and rose petals. On the blanket was a delicious looking roast dinner, two empty wine glasses sat beside the plates of food and a bottle of red wine sat in a small bucket of ice.
I walked around the room in utter shock and turned back to Roy. He was smiling as he watched me. I ran to him and hugged him tightly "It's wonderful Roy," I whispered "thank you." He wrapped his arms around me and chuckled, he rested his chin on my head and held me tightly.
"I'm glad you like it love." He kissed me on the head and led me towards the dinner. We sat down and Roy poured the wine into our glasses. The red liquid gleamed in the candle light and filled the room with a sweet aroma. Mixing with the divine smell of the roast chicken and vegetables. My nose was filled with the aromas and made my head swim in delight.
Roy sat across from me and smiled at me. I smiled back and felt my cheeks flush red.
"Let's eat." He said with a smile. I nodded eagerly and started to devour the food. Roy chuckled and began to eat his own dinner.
When we were done with the dinner we sat drinking the deliciously sweet wine and chatted for hours. We stayed up all night like this. Happily enjoying each moment to the fullest. When light suddenly lit up the room we turned to look out the large window.
The sun was rising, beautiful colours filled the sky and dazzled us. We watched the sun rise and snuggled close to each other.
Roy smiled and turned towards me "Ed," he said my name softly, his voice full of love and happiness.
I looked up at him and smiled "Yes Roy?" my voice was just as low and filled with love.
"I love you, so much, every moment I spend with you is like a dream," I smiled and he continued "I wish to always live this happy dream with you." He pulled something out of his pocket and presented a small black box. He flipped it oped and I gasped. Inside was a beautiful silver ring. A large red stone was surrounded with little diamonds and it sparkled beautifully in the light of the sunrise.
"Ed," I looked back at Roy in shock "Will you marry me?" I gasped again. Tears filled my eyes and I hugged him tightly.
"YES!" I almost yelled in happiness as I cried tears of joy into his shoulder.
Roy wrapped his arms around me and held me tightly. I felt his own tears of happiness fall on my head as we held onto each other.
We stayed like that for what felt like life times, but we finally realised that we needed at least some sleep and Roy lead me into a large master bedroom beside the library. The bed was huge and the quilts were thick and cuddly.
We fell asleep almost immediately, cuddling up to each other and falling into a deep sleep filled with dreams of happiness and togetherness.
-ROY—
The annoying sound of an alarm woke me up and I opened my eyes slowly. I rubbed the sleep out of my heavy eyes and looked over at the clock that was beeping loudly beside me.
"Crap!" we were late for work. We… I looked down at the small blonde who was using my chest as a pillow. His hair was spread across his shoulders and his face was peaceful. I smiled and ran my fingers through his sunlight hair.
I leant down and placed my lips against his ear, I nibbled slightly and the blonde groaned "Ed," I whispered into his ear and chuckled as he shivered "It's time to wake up."
He groaned again and his golden eyes blinked open. I watched, mesmerized as the blonde beauty slowly woke up. He rubbed his eyes and blinked at me. It was always like this, Ed wouldn't even hear the alarm and would continue to sleep and I would watch, amazed as he woke up each morning.
"g'morning Roy." He yawned and snuggled into me. I smiled and held him for a few minutes. Then remembering what the time was I cursed and got out of bed. Ed whimpered at the loss and glared at the clock in annoyance.
"Come on Ed," I sighed and pulled the blonde out of bed, watching in amusement as he stumbled and struggled to get his balance "we have work today."
Ed stretched and yawned again. He walked to the door and stopped, realising he had no idea where to go to get to the kitchen. I laughed and lead him into the bright kitchen. He winced as the light bit at his eyes and he blinked them a few times before they adjusted.
We ate breakfast and got ready for work as quickly as we could.
Everyone at work congratulated me and Ed when we announced that we were engaged. Hughes hugged us tightly and Armstrong cried freely. The day was one full of laughter and celebration, not much work got done and everyone was shocked when Hawkeye allowed this, even joining in on the celebration.
Ed had been living with me comfortably all year and all his stuff was at our house, when we got home Al was there, he had gotten a key from Hughes and set up something for us.
When we walked into the living room we were both shocked to see a large banner slung up across the roof "CONGRATULATIONS!"
Of course Al had been the first one Ed had called and he was ecstatic, he ran up to them and pulled them into a tight bear hug. "GONRATS GUYS!" he yelled and he laughed as we gasped for air.
We had dinner together, Al was visiting Central for a few days and was staying in a hotel nearby. He chatted happily with Ed and me, continuously congratulating us.
Soon it was midnight and Al left us to get some sleep. I scooped up Ed, who had fallen asleep on the couch and carried him into bed, I undressed him and crawled into bed myself. I was asleep in no time, two late nights in a row would not be good for work in the morning.
When I woke up in the morning Ed was still asleep like always. I woke him up gently and he dragged himself out of bed, following me into the kitchen.
I walked over to the cupboards. I smiled as I got out the ingredients for pancakes and got them ready to mix together.
Suddenly I heard a chair scrape sharply against the floor and turned around to see Ed rushing out of the room. I frowned and followed him quickly. He had run down the hall into the bathroom and had rushed inside. I opened the door and gasped.
Ed was kneeling in front of the porcelain toilet, his head inside and was throwing up.
-EDWARD—
Roy had gotten some stuff out of the cupboards and was gathering them all together when I suddenly felt sick. I ran out of the room and down the hall, heading for the bathroom. I quickly rushed to the toilet and threw up the contents of my stomach.
I felt horrible. I heard Roy open the door behind me and gasp quietly. I groaned and panted, I felt myself paling and I threw up more. The back of my throat burned and my stomach was churning. Suddenly Roy's hands were holding my hair back and he knelt beside me. His hands were cool on the back of my neck, they felt nice but the good feeling they produced was soon overtaken by another bout of throwing up.
When everything in my stomach was finally thrown up I lay on the floor and rested on my head on the cool tiles. My eyes were closed tightly and I groaned. Roy sat beside me. He rubbed my back soothingly and I opened my eyes.
His expression was one of worry and I groaned again as a wave of nausea swept over me again.
"Ed," his voice was strained and I wanted to tell him I was alright, but I wasn't, I felt like crap and just wanted to curl up in a ball on the cold tiles and stay there all day. "Ed, are you alright?"
I moaned an answer and he frowned, his worry deepened, I could tell because the soothing circles he had been drawing on my back had stopped. He sighed and pulled something out of his pocket.
I heard the beeping of a cell phone. Soon after Roy was talking to someone. He said something about being at home and me being sick. But his words were all jumbled up and I groaned as a headache formed.
Roy hung up and continued to draw circles on my lower back. "Hawkeye said she would be right over," he whispered and the circles slowed "how are you feeling now?" I groaned and weakly waved my hand at him.
The door opened a few minutes later and Hawkeye knelt down beside Roy "How is he?" she whispered to Roy. I groaned at her letting her know I was still awake.
She placed her palm on my forehead and hmmed "He doesn't have a fever." Her palm moved away and she stood up "I don't know what's wrong, I suggest taking him to a doctor."
My eyes snapped open and I glared at Hawkeye "No." I refused. I hated doctors and she knew that.
"Ed," I looked over at Roy, pleading him with my eyes "It's for your own good." I gasped and stared at him in shock, I would have expected this betrayal from Riza, but not Roy!
-ROY—
I watched as Ed lie on the floor in the bathroom. I felt horrible for him, he was sick and all he could do was groan and quietly complain about going to see the doctor. I couldn't stand to see him like this. I sighed and scooped him up off the ground. He whimpered when the cool of the tiles went away.
"Ed, where going to the doctor."
-EDWARD—
I felt a wave of nausea hit me as Roy scooped me up, luckily I had nothing left in my stomach to throw up.
The drive was long, we didn't live close to a doctor. I relaxed into the passenger seat and closed my eyes. By the time we reached the doctor I was feeling better. The nausea was almost gone and my head was clearer.
Roy stopped the car and opened my door. I opened my eyes and glared up at him "I don't need a doctor," I complained "I feel better now." He frowned at me in confusion but pulled me out of the car anyway.
"Whether you feel better or not doesn't mean anything, I need to know why you were lying on the floor sick this morning." He kept his voice firm but I could tell he was worried, his onyx eyes were full of it.
The waiting room was relatively empty and we got in to see the doctor fairly quickly.
"Mr Elric," the doctor was a woman about thirty that had long, dark brown hair. "Have a seat please." She motioned for Roy and I to sit on the seats prepared for patients.
She asked the usual questions that any doctor would ask and we got through that quickly. Roy explained what had happened this morning and the doctor frowned slightly.
"This might sound weird, but that sounds an awful lot like…" she shook her head and stood up.
"Like what?" Roy glared at the doctor impatiently. She shook her head again and motioned for me to stand. I stood up and she pulled me closer to her. She placed her stethoscope to my chest and listened, she mumbled things like, high heart rate and blood pressure as if she was checking off a list. By the time she was done both me and Roy were getting agitated.
Suddenly she prodded my stomach and I yelped in pain "That hurt!" Roy frowned in confusion and stood up.
"Ed?" I stared at the doctor, confused and she placed the cold stethoscope where she had poked. She closed her eyes and listened intently.
"Doc?" I frowned at her and she looked up at me.
"I can't believe it." She whispered as she stared at me, shock and wonder shining in her eyes.
"What?" Roy and I yelled at her in unison, we were both frustrated and annoyed at her silence.
"Umm…" she began "Mr Elric… you're pregnant."
