Imperfect World

Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Full Metal Alchemist. If I did, it would be called the Flame Alchemist and would focus on Roy and Riza's relationship heehee x)

Yoh! Here's another drabble from me. I hope you enjoy it, and please leave a review telling me what you thought about it. Constructive criticism highly welcomed.

'The world itself is imperfect. That's what makes it so beautiful,' he had once told her. Now he didn't think so. To him the world was ugly, Like his blood-stained hands. Like him. Tainted him.

He had lost all reason to live now, right? Government now made all military decisions. There was no place for a Brigadier General, and an injured one at that.

His loyal Lieutenant… well, he was sure he had already ruined his chance for and with her.

He stood blindly in front of Brigadier General Hughes' tombstone, feeling raw tears sting his eyes. Killed in action trying to get him to the top. Another tainted soul. A presence was felt. Soft, pale, manicured fingers gently wiped the offending tears from his eyes.

"The rain has stopped." Amber eyes, bright with unshed tears smiled at him.

The world may be imperfect, but at that moment to Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye was his world, and she was once again without blemish. She was perfect. Beautifully perfect.

"So it has."
