O, Riza
I chose O, America and I put it with Royai and BOOM lovely little songfic. If you don't know the song O, America, go look it up now. It is one of the most beautiful songs ever. The italicized words are the lyrics. Please enjoy.
Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist and the Celtic Women sing O, America.
For the record I just got the lyrics by listening to the song, I am sorry if they are wrong.
It was a typical work day. Mustang wouldn't do his paperwork and Hawkeye had to help him become motivated or in other words holding a gun to his head.
"Lt. Hawkeye," Roy said to Riza as it was time to get off from work. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Roy waiting for him to see what he was going to say next. "Grab your coat and come with me."
She did as she was told and followed with her coat in her hand and Black Hayte at her side. When they got closer to the door they put their coats on and walked outside. The cold month of December greeted them stinging their cheeks with its icy wind, and Hayte cringing against the cold that not even his fur coat could block out.
Roy walked on and on and Riza followed with out a single comment or question.
Finally he stopped in a park. All the trees where bare and wrapped in lights for the up coming festivities that were going to take place soon, the lights on the trees where being turned on as they stopped in the center of a circle of trees where the side walk paths meet at their feet. He took Riza's hand and got down on one knee and began to sing,
O, Riza you're calling,
I can hear you calling me:
You are calling me to be true to thee,
True to thee… I will be.
O, Riza no weeping,
Let me heal your wounded heart.
I will keep you in my keeping,
Till there be… a new start.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand,
And lead you… to the sun:
And I will stand by you…do all that I can do,
And we will be… as one.
O, Riza I see you,
you have always protected me,
From the mountains grand, and all through this land,
You are most beautiful to me.
And… O, Riza you're calling,
I can hear you calling me:
You are calling me to be true to thee,
True to thee… I will be.
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand,
And lead you… to the sun:
And I will stand by you… do all that I can do,
And we will be…as one.
O, Riza you're calling…
I will ever answer thee.
When he was finished singing Riza's heart was beating like a drum and Roy continued to stay on his knee.
"Riza, I have known you ever since I was your father's apprentice. I was there for you when your father died, and you were there for me when Hughes died. You have watched my back for me since the day you joined the military. You saved my ass too many times to count. So, would you please," he paused and pulled a little black box out of his pocket and opened it, in the black fabric set a small silver ring with a large diamond in the center and smaller diamonds embedded into the band nest to the larger diamond. "Become my wife?" he finished off.
Riza's emotions finally burst through her emotionless shield and the tears began to pour from her eyes as she smiled. She was crying the happy tears so badly that she couldn't even answer so she had to just shake her head yes. Roy took her gloved hand and slid the glove off and placed the ring on her ring finger.
He stood up and took Riza into his arms and passionately kissed her.
Thank you for reading. Please review and all that good stuff. Just so you know in case you where confused Hayte was there the whole time he was just sitting off to the side. I am sorry if there is any grammar/spelling problems. Please review. Good bye.
