Let's hope I don't forget and actually finish one story in mah life! Well... Hope you guys like!

Day 1

Holding Hands(Oh gods... where o I even start?)

A bustling day at the office, is how it starts. Roy and Edward bickering in Roy's office while Al just stands back, wondering 'Why am I even here?'. Roy and Ed continue throwing insults at eachother loud enough for everyone in the office outside to hear.

Breda turns to Havoc, "Are they really at it again? Someone would think that after-" He looks at the calendar, "-30 days they'd run out of creative insults and revert back to the old short and bastard jokes." Havoc just shrugs and lights another cigarette after throwing the previous one in the garbage.

"Hey, what can you do? Especially since Hawkeye's home sick and can't keep them in line." Breda nods his head a little as if in thought. He then looks at the clock.

"Well, it'll be done and over with in about 12 minutes." A collective sigh of relief spreads through the office until they hear a door slam open. They look up and see a fuming Edward storming out the door and Alphonse walking out backwards stuttering apologies. Ed looks around the office glares, and then walks out into the hallway, nearly bumping into a shirtless Armstrong. He weaves around him and both he and Alphonse disappear.

Everyone looks at the wide open door to the Colonel's office as he hurries after them, an apologetic look on his face and a large red handprint on his left cheek. He quickly looks at them in silence before dashing out the door.

"Go on home Al," is the first thing Edward says once they're out of the building and see Mustang running to catch up to them.

"But brother-" "It's okay, I can handle him. Probably better apologize, before someone notices. As much as I'll hate to." Alphonse looks between the now closer Colonel and his still mad brother. "Okay, but come right home after you're done brother." Edward simply nods before Al walks away.

As soon as Al is out of site and turned a corner, Edward looks back and sees Roy standing in front of him awkwardly, but with a somewhat angry look in his eyes. Both loo away from eachother for a moment before looking back at the other and stuttering at the same time, "I'm sorry... What? Oh, you go first. No, you go ahead... This is getting really annoying. Okay shut up, shut uuu-" It stops as Roy places a hand over Ed's mouth. "Please. Stop." Roy says tiredly. "I'm sorry for what I said. I took it too far. Please forgive me."

Edward just stands there, shocked. "I never pegged you as one to apologize." Ed admits sheepishly. "Well. I guess you pegged wrong." Roy says. "I wanted to say that I'm sorry as well... I never should have hit you, especially with my automail... Are... Are you okay?" Edward asks, reaching up, as if ready to touch the mark left by his cold metal before thinking better of it and replacing his hands by his side.

Roy rolls his eyes to his left side before smiling a small half-smile. "Yeah, still stings a bit though... Well, we already escaped the office, you want to go take a walk or something?" Ed looks behind him the way Al went and replies. "I can't, I need to go back to the dorm and study with Al-" Roy interrupts, "Oh come on! Studying is all you do! I'm asking for one day one."

Ed ponders for a little while before finally giving in. "... Fine. But only today. Don't know why you're doing this either, far as I know we hate eachother." Roy, who had turned away and started walking stopped mid-step. "Have you ever even wondered if I cared or not?" Edward looks at him for a second before shaking his head to clear it. "Nevermind, you said something about a walk?"

"Yeah, come on." Roy reaches back and takes Edward's hand, not even realizing it. Ed blushes before being pulled along. He jogs to catch up before walking by his side.

They take a walk around the nearby park, talking about alchemy and different books. The whole time they are, they're holding hands, and they don't even notice. By the time they get back to the office, everyone has left except for Roy's team. They walk in together and everyone looks up. "Um... Why are you guys holding hands?" Falman asks awkwardly. Roy and Ed startle before looking down and noticing their linked hands. Both look up, then at eachother before shrugging. Roy starts walking back into his office, pulling Ed along with him and closing the door behind them, moments later everyone hears laughing.

I know... Shitty isn't it? Well... Better than the last time I tried writing... Hope you enjoyed! I'll take another crack at it tomorrow!
