Haii! So just a short story as a present for my girlfriend and I's one month anniversary. I loveeee youu! This story is based on the song "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith, Kaitlyn and I's song. Hope you enjoy...:)
Edward lay in bed staring up at the ceiling. The soft breathing of his lover next to him made him smile. He was always up an hour or so after Roy had fallen asleep just listening to him breathe. He sat up and leaned against the headboard and looked down at Roy.
His expression was so calm and so free; it made Edward wonder what he was dreaming about. It must've been something good, because the corners of his mouth twitched up, as if he was forcing himself not to smile.
His eyes drooped a little, but he forced them open. He knew that as soon as he closed his eyes, this amazing, peaceful moment would be over and he'd wake up to the hell that some people liked to call life.
Personally, he liked it best when it was just he and Roy laying in bed together. Especially, if they were doing more than laying. But most of all, he'd miss his dark-haired lover. Sure, he'd dream about him, but dreaming wasn't the same as touching and holding and kissing.
He lay back down on his side and placed his flesh hand on Roy's chest. He could slightly feel the steady thump of his heart. Roy smiled in his sleep, and it made Ed wonder if it was he Roy was dreaming of. Yeah, it was cheesy, but he had always wondered if Roy dreamt about him. He smiled and leaned up, kissing Roy's eyelids. He wasn't very religious...but he could only thank God for his lover. And for the moment, which he wished would last forever and ever.
Roy smiled once again. Edward sighed and stared at him. He didn't want to miss any of his unconsience smiles, or the small kisses that Roy would plant on his cheek when he woke up in the middle of the night and thought Edward was asleep.
All he wanted to do was sit here and stay snuggled up to his love and not move until the end of forever. He never wanted to move from the spot he was in.
Unfortunately, sleep always got the best of him. His eyes slowly drooped shut. The blonde just lie there, listening to his lover breathe. Though sleep slowly consumed him, he still fought to stay awake.
He felt the bed shift next to him as Roy woke from his sleep. He leaned over and pressed a gentle kiss to the Fullmetal Alchemist lips and smiled.
"I love you, Edward." he whispered in Ed's ear and wrapped his arms around the smaller man. Edward smiled a little and nuzzled closer to him.
"I love you too..." he said softly, almost inaudibly, and slowly drifted to sleep to the lullaby of Roy's breathing.
