"If one does not wish for these two to be bound by hold matramony...speak now or forever hold your peace."

These words ran rapid through Winry's mind as she silently stood in her floral pink gown, her long blonde hair streaming down her freckled shoulders.Though she wished it was her walking down the beautifully decorated church aisle, Winry watched the young lioran girl drift gracefully in her flowing white dress down the aisleway and towards the man she would love and live with forever.Rose was so pretty and curvasious, her envy towards the girl's figure and appearance was unimaginable.And for her to be marrying so young and be so in love ; made her even more jealous.Winry shrugged it off and put her biggest smile on as Rose said her vows.She was truly happy for the girl that had been living with her for such a long while.Ever since Edward and Alphonse's 'disapearance' and Pinako's untimely death, Rose was the only one to keep her company.Being alone so long without someone would have drove her completely over the edge.

Rose's two little boy's stood by Winry has well.Their cute suits and ties fit them perfectly and their hair was neatly slicked back, making them look absolutly adorable standing next to the tall blonde woman they called 'Aunty'.

Tears threatened to fall as Rose and her newlywed husband kissed and smiled happily at the cameramen Winry hired to photograph the beautiful moment.

As everyone filtered out of the alter, Winry grabbed the hands of the two little boys and watched with the rest of the many guests as the couple filed into the limo, while everyone blew bubbles and waved goodbye to Rose and Theo, her new husband.

A little while later, Winry had driven Daniel and Matthew back to the Rockbell house, promising Rose she would watch over them while they went on there honeymoon.

"Aunty Winry, are we invited to your wedding too?" Little daniel asked.

"What! oh...well..." Winry stammered, trying to come up with an answer to the awkward question.She really hadn't thought about marriage until today.

"I'm not getting married Danny." Winry said finally.

"Why not?" Matthew now asked.

Winry thought.A little ashamed she couldn't tell them why she wouldn't marry, what was one supposed to say?

After a few moments and still no answer Matthew continued,

"Well mommy says marriage is the best thing a person could ever imagine.Its one of the best things in life...is to be with the person you love." Matthew finished, going back to fiddling with his fingers in the backseat.

Winry closed her eyes, tears falling once more.She was always one to be easily moved by things.The boy had a point, she should be thinking about things like marriage and love and having children...but after everything that has happened, she just couldn't bring herself to be happy again. She still had her Automail shop, and many customers still visited her small shop in Rush Valley, what more could she ask for?

"AUNTY WATCH OUT!" Matthew and Daniel Shrieked in unison.

Winry hadn't been watched the road, and during her musings she must've lost sight of the road.

"AH!" Winry yelped almost immediately, swerving her car out of the way of an oncoming car, landing herself in a ditch.

Winry could hear her own heart racing and pounding, along with the boy's harsh breathing in the back, almost scared to tears from what had just happened.

"Im sorry." Winry sighed, tears spilling down her face now.

"Don't tell your mother about this." Winry said, laying her head down on the steering wheel as she sobbed.

(later that night...)

"Daniel, Matthew bed!" Winry shouted upstairs, ready to tuck them into bed. With Rose and Theo been gone for almost a day, winry was exhausted from all the running around she'd done with the boys.

"Well atleast its better than being alone."

Winry turned off the bedroom light off and kissed the boys goodnight.It had been a long day.

"Goodnight Aunty Winry!" They said as she quietly closed the door.

Winry sighed, making her way to the kitchen to clean up the remainder of the mess made from dinner.Winry turned on the cold water and started scrubbing the dirty dished.

"one of the best things in life...is to be with the one you love.."

Those words had cut deep, deeper than she probably intended it to be. She knew she had become a little anti-social, and probably needed to get back into her regular and exciting mood, but it had become harder than ever over the past few years.

She had changed so much. Her hair was longer than ever, reached about to her hips now, usually in a high ponytail or strung up in a messy bun.Her eyes, once vividly blue and bright, now serene and dark as she had become more mature, body and mind. She was now fully an adult.

It had been four long years since seeing Edward and Alphonse.

And it was tearing her apart.

Winry broke out of her thoughts again as her phone began to ring.She picked it up qiuckly as to not wake up the boys.

"Uhm..hello?" Winry said.

"Miss Rockbell?" A deep voice questioned from the other line.

"Yes? Who is this?"

"General Roy Mustang.Nice to hear from you again."

Winry's gulped, if he was called her personally, something terrible must be up.

"Oh how nice to hear from you again! But may i ask is something the matter you seem a bit..." Winry was cut off,

"We need you to come to central as soon as possible.Do you need us to schedule transportation?" He asked.

Winry's heart was pounding, Why would he be calling this late asking me to come to central at obscene hours of the night?

"I'll be there in a few hours, where will i meet you?"

"10:30 p.m at the train station, someone will be there to escort you to Central hospital." he replied bidding her farewell.

Winry hung up the phone.

This was gonna be a long night.
