"Keep Me Closer…."
-I own nothing. Just a short and simple Royai fic told from Roy's point of view. Sorry if its not as good as you hoped, I was depressed when I wrote this… so…. I guess you can make your own call. Reviews please.
As I held her small and fragile body, I hated myself. I hated myself for never being able to protect her from anything. She was always the one to get my back, to protect me and keep pushing me forward. And what had I done for her? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Now, her bleeding body lay motionless in my arms and her wonderful chocolate eyes were losing their lovely light. The light that I had loved so much, the light that made me fall so damn hard for her.
"Roy…." Her weak voice reached my ears. It took everything I had not to cry there, even in her weakest moment, she was stronger than me. She pulled my head down to hers so I could hear what she was saying. "Could you…. Hold me closer... please…."
"Riza, youre going to be fine, you just need to shut up and keep your eyes open ok?" I sounded like such an idiot, saying anything I could to keep myself sane while my only love was dying in my arms. I almost believed what I said next. "You're going to make it, I swear…. I swear on the future of Central and all of Amestris, you won't leave this earth tonight. Just hang on for me, ok?"
She just weakly smiled up at me as her blood-stained skin grew paler by the second. I leaned down and kissed those lips that had made so many snide remarks, beautiful smirks, and quiet sobs I had witnessed over the years…. Those lips that were attached to the person I had ever felt completed me. I hated myself so much for pushing my Queen away all this time. All I could hope for was that she would keep me closer than ever if we survived this.
