Okay, lets do this! This is my first fanfic, so please be nice to me! This is a FMA high school AU and a Cinderella story… I don't know either. Please excuse all spelling/grammar mistakes, because I cannot spell for my life and I don't have a beta. This is Edwin, Royai, and Ling/Ran Fan. Please review! ~4this

"Winry!" Lust called from the dining room. "Where's breakfast?"

"Coming!" Winry called. She was hurriedly taking waffles out of the humongous waffle iron, and putting two on each blue china plate. She adjusted the wrench in the back pocket of her sweatpants, and brought the food into the dining room.

Sitting around the large mahogany table was Winry's stepfamily, Lust, Rose, and Elicia. Rose had her bangs died pink, and the rest of her lush brown hair was down her back, perfectly smooth. Elicia was bouncing up and down in her chair. The four year old seemed to have just been dunked in caffeine. Her light brown hair was up in two pigtails. Elicia was the nicest to Winry; only having been one at the time Winry's father married Lust.

"Put the food down." Lust ordered. Winry placed the silver platter on the table and put a plate in front of every person.

"Thanks Winny!" Elicia said when Winry put the plate in front of her. "Cut it pwease?"

"Okay." Winry said with a quiet voice. She picked up the knife and fork and cut the waffle into little pieces.

Winry left her 'family', snagged a piece of toast from the kitchen, and returned to her room on the third floor, otherwise know as the attic. It wasn't a horrible room, just a bit cold. Winry munched on the toast and she pulled on jeans and a green tee. She pulled her wrench out of her sweatpants and put it in a leather sheath that attached to her belt. Winry never went anywhere without her wrench, and she used it daily, weather it be to hit someone in the head, or to open malfunctioning lockers.

Winry sat down at her desk, littered with bits of metal and screws, an automail hand rested in the left corner of it, propped against a small clock. Winry's dream was to become an automail mechanic like her grandmother. She grabbed the hand, and caught a glimpse of the clock. Seven fifty nine. She must have spaced out.

Winry yelped, put the hand down, and grabbed at her dresser for some socks. She found a pair, put them on, and picked up her sneakers. She slipped them on, grabbed her black backpack and a navy blue sweatshirt, and rushed downstairs.

I'm gonna be late! I'm gonna be late! Winry thought as she headed to the front door. Her stepsisters didn't mind if she left, and Winry didn't feel like reminding them. Elicia didn't have to go to school till nine, and Rose had her own car. Winry ran down the driveway, away from the large Tudor style house, to the sidewalk. Winry jogged to the bus stop two blocks away, and once she got there, just caught the school bus as the last person was getting on.

"Whew." Winry sighed as she got on the bus.

"Winry!" someone called.

"Riza! Hey, Ran Fan!" Winry made her way to the mid-section of the bus, and sat down next to her best across the aisle from them. Riza had her hair in her normal clip, her bangs jutting sharply across her face. Ran Fan had her hair in a bun, and was wearing a black shirt and scarf. Ran Fan was Xingese, and had moved to Resembool when she was seven.

"Monday, not the best day of the week, eh?" Riza sighed, leaning against the cheap faux leather seat.

Ran Fan shook her head, and Winry said "Nope."

The bus made two more stops before it reached the school. Resembool Royal High School, the best high school in the kingdom of Resembool. Also, the two princes went there. Prince Edward, who was a junior like Winry. Prince Alphonse was a sophomore. Winry got off the bus, and walked to the large building, built out of yellow bricks. The three friends walked without talking much to their first period class, history. Their classroom was on the second floor, with a view of the sport's fields. RRHS had a baseball team, a football team, a soccer team, a track team, and a basketball team. There were also martial arts and fencing. After all, what do you expect from the best?

Winry sat down in the third row, Riza and Ran Fan to the right of her. Winry surveyed the room; Mr. Armstrong hadn't come yet, Roy Mustang and his friends Maes Hughes and Jean Havoc where talking to Ling Yao, and next to them was none other than Edward Elric kissing Rose. They had been dating for a little under a year, but whenever Winry saw them, a knot formed in her stomach. A few others were scattered around the room, but no one very important.

Despite her annoyance at the sight of Rose and Ed making out, Winry's eyes fell back on them. Ed had his long blonde hair, a shade darker and oranger than Winry's, in it's usual braid. His eyes were closed, but everyone knew of the prince's rare golden eyes. And he was a bit on the short side, though no one bothered him about it. Once a few people are sent to the hospital, others get the message. Winry let out an exasperated sigh and turned to the window. She hated seeing this, couldn't they do it in private?

Mr. Armstrong walked in, and conversation quieted down; they all knew what would happen if they didn't.

"Hello, Class! Today I will teach you a part of history passed down in the Armstrong family for generations!" Mr. Armstrong boomed.

Winry sat at a lunchroom table, waiting for Riza and Ran Fan to arrive. She spotted them across the room, getting lunch, but Rose cut off her view of them.

"Winry!" Rose said in her sweet voice. "I need you to pick up Elicia after school. I'm going to Edward's."

"Okay." Winry said.

"And get groceries. Mom's not coming home tonight, so you're cooking."

"Like I wouldn't if she was?" Winry said sarcastically.

"What was that? You are going to pay for that!" Rose stalked off.

Winry huffed, and let out an airy laugh.

"Hey. What was that about?" Ran Fan asked, sitting down. She was a quiet, caring girl, and not really close to anyone, but she cared.

"My evil stepsister is dumping everything on me. Again. To go see her boyfriend. And then she's not going to let me have dinner." Winry sighed.

"Again?" Riza slid in next to Winry.

"Mm." Winry scowled.

Winry munched on an apple, waiting for her friends to finish.

"Take something to eat if you don't get diner." Ran Fan said.

"I will, thanks."

~~~\/\/\/~~~

"Winny!"

"Hey, Elicia." Winry sighed. The little pigtailed girl skipped down the steps with a few friends.

"Why isn't Rose or Mommy picking me up?" Elicia asked.

"Rose and Lu- Mom have things to do." Winry had never gotten used to calling Lust 'Mom', and only called her Mom in front of Elicia who would get confused otherwise. "C'mon. Let's go home."

Elicia babbled about her day at school as Winry walked home. "…and then I got the question right! Aren't you proud of me?"

"Very." Winry smiled for her cute little stepsister.

They got to the driveway and started walking up to the house. Winry paused when she saw Rose's silver mini cooper in the driveway. That shouldn't be there. Unless… Winry opened the door to find Rose on the sofa with Edward practically eating her face. Of course.

"Sis!" Elicia didn't realize what was going on, so she rushed into the living room. Winry rubbed her forehead and walked to the stairs. She could faintly hear Rose scolding Elicia downstairs as she reached her room. Winry put her bag on the bed and sat down at her desk. She fiddled with a box she had made a month or so ago that sprung open when you touched it, rather simple, but amusing. She was going to send it to Pinako, but Lust was forbidding any contact between the two. But before that happened, Pinako had sent a book with the basics of Automail and projects for leaning them. The spring box was one of them.

Winry put the box down, holding the lid so it wouldn't fly off, and pulled her math homework out of her bag.

"It's never gonna do itself." Winry said quietly and began to work.

Yay! It's not long, but I had fun writing this. I will try to put up a new chapter soon, but I'm not the fastest at those kinds of things. Please review!
