Hello everybody! Wow...who woulda thought my first FMA fanfic was Roy/Ed? That's right, incase you didn't catch it in the summary, this is in fact a ROY/EDWARD STORY!! If you do not likey, GET OUT! Otherwise...welcome! And I hope you enjoy! First, I have to get one thing straight: I am not very good at updating on a regular basis. I try, really I do. But either I move on to a different story or I lose interest. Take a look at my other stories and you'll see what I mean. But I swear, this will be finished!! Just no promises as to how fast and how many chapters. You have been warned. lol
"Fullmetal, I need you to report to my office immediately."
I raised an eyebrow, "Is that so?"
Mustang had unfortunately been able to contact me at the Inn Alphonse and I were staying at in Central. Out of all the Inns, I was hoping he wouldn't find us. At least not until we were already half-way to some random town in the middle of nowhere. That way, I couldn't report to him immediately.
"Yes." The Colonel said on the other end of the line. "I have some important matters to go over with you."
I sighed, crossed my arms, and leaned against the wall, keeping the phone wedged between my ear and my shoulder. "Colonel, we just came back from an assignment you gave us! We're supposed to be out there looking for the Philosopher's Stone, remember?!"
"And you're still a dog of the military, remember?"
I groaned and banged my head against the wall. There was silence on both ends. He was waiting for me to give in. I wasn't about to give in. The silence continued except for the sound of papers shuffling in his office and dishes clanging in the Inn. I began to tap my foot impatiently. "Fine! Fine! I'll be there first thing in the morning!" Great. Another one-on-one friendly little chat with Roy Mustang ending in me and Al getting some ridiculous military assignment to look forward to.
"No. I want you here tonight." He replied.
"Tonight?" I almost dropped the phone. "Do you realize how late it is? Al and I just got into town!"
"Now Fullmetal!"

"Don't even think about-" The dial tone rang in my ear. "...hanging up on...me..." I slammed the phone back in its holder. "Stupid Roy Mustang, thinking he can control my life!" I began stomping up the stairs to our room. "Just thinks he can tell me where to go and when. Well I got some news for him; no one tells Edward Elric what to do!" I stormed into the room to find Alphonse staring out the window up at the stars. He turned to look at me when I entered.
"What's wrong brother? You look angry."
"The Colonel wants to see me." I grumbled.
"That doesn't sound too bad."
"He wants to see me now." I said grabbing my red coat.
"You mean right now?" Al said standing up. "Doesn't he know we just got here?"
"He knows." I growled. "He just likes pushing my buttons."
Al and I stood before the steps of the military HQ. We exchanged looks, sighed, and I began climbing the marble steps. I heard the metal clanging of Al behind me and stopped.
"Al, you stay here. I'll take care of this."
He froze, one foot in the air. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah. Besides, Mustang doesn't usually like to see both of us." Now that I thought of it, he never wanted to see me and Al at the same time. It's always just been me. Must be because I'm the State Alchemist and Al isn't. "Wait here. I'll be out as soon as I can." I told him.
"Okay."
After climbing a couple stairwells and rounding some corners, I finally arrived at the Colonel's door. I stood still and stared at the door for a few minutes. Then I took a deep breath and knocked.
"It's open." He called.
I turned the handle and pushed the door open. Mustang was sitting at his desk, like usual, but his desk was unusually clear of paperwork... He ushered me in and I took a seat on one of the couches. I pulled my right leg up and rested it on my left. "Alright, what do you want?"
He leaned back in his chair. "Oh Edward…always getting straight down to business. Why don't we just take some time and relax for a minute?"
"Last I knew that's what Inn's were for." I mumbled. Roy shook his head and got on his feet. "Can you just give me the assignment and skip the cute little chat? I gotta get back to Al." I said a tad on the grumpy side.
He stopped directly in front of me. "Ed, there is no assignment."
"What?!" I jumped to my feet. "Then why the hell did you even make me come here?! I otta punch your face in!"
He laughed. "That short-temper matches your height."
Great. Short jokes. I balled my hand into a fist. "Who are you calling so short-." He cut me off by placing a finger on my lips. I stopped and looked down at his finger, then back at him. I slowly pushed his hand away from my face, stepped around the couch and stood beside his desk. "If there is no assignment, why did you drag me here?" I asked again.
"Edward I did not drag you here. You dragged yourself." He said, sliding his hands in his pockets. He began walking over to me. I frowned and watched him carefully incase he had any tricks up his sleeve. "Working late hours in the office on paperwork can get pretty lonely."
"Isn't that what Lt. Hawkeye is around for?" I growled.
He didn't respond. He just kept his eyes right on me. I was suddenly feeling cornered. But wait… "Wait, what do you mean working late on paperwork? Your desk has no papers on it at all!"
Roy shrugged, "Lucky night I guess."
I let out a heavy sigh, "Look, I'm not here to play games with you Colonel! Screw this, I'm leaving." I started towards the door.
"You know, I kinda have a thing for shorties."
I froze halfway to my escape. My eyes widened in shock. Did he just mean what I thought he meant? He couldn't have….could he? I wanted to bolt out of the room and get as far away from this pervert as possible but I couldn't get my legs to move. I heard him chuckle, then I felt something pulling on my coat hood, pulling me back in the direction I was running from. I squeezed my eyes shut. This can't be happening! I reopened my eyes and found myself between Mustang and his desk. I gulped.
"Nowhere to run now, Fullmetal." He said softly. "You're all mine."
….Help?!...
Oh the SUSPENSE! Don't worry, all you need to do is go to the next chapter! That's right, I was nice here and gave you 2 chapters at once.
