I stared around the room impatiently waiting for Roy to get back wondering what he and fuhrer Grumman were talking about. It had been nearly an hour since my grandfather had summoned him and my impatience and curiosity were getting to me when finally the door opened. On instinct I got up to solute Roy and he waved it off as if we weren't at work. I waited for Roy to say something but he just sat down at his desk, I looked at him quizzically and he smiled.

"What is with the look Riza?"

"First of all since we are at work you should be calling me General Hawkeye," He smirked and shock his head, "second, what were you and fuhrer Grumman talking about, it defiantly was a long conversation, and normally I'd expect you to take me with you to meetings."

"For the first part I can call you by whatever I wish to…as for the second, you will find out what I wish to let you find out." Roy said and when he saw how much that upset me laughed, "You don't need to know everything that goes on with me General Hawkeye and-"

"That's for damn sure considering how may chicks you go home with" I interrupted, Roy got up and walked over to me, grabbing a lock of my hair and playing with it.

"It saddens me to hear you say that Riza, you know I don't care about any of those girls." He said in a voice that made me feel a pain in my chest.

"Making you taking them home even more sickening"

"Lieutenant you actually think I sleep with those women?" he asked shocked and hurt, dropping my hair and staring into my eyes.

"I'm not a Lieutenant anymore," I stated.

"Riza that doesn't matter, how could you think of me like that," Roy asked, voice getting louder and he stood up, "after all that we have been threw together I never expected you, of all people, to think I would do that! Riza, we have known each other since we were kids, you are one of my best friends-are my best friend, I cannot believe this!"

"Roy…I am sorry...I…knew you used some of those girls to send or gather information but what about those you used just to pass the time…so you didn't do anything with them?"

Roy was about to say something then stopped and looked at the clock, "It's late, I finished my paperwork, I am going home so goodbye General Hawkeye" The way he said the last part felt like daggers and after the shock and hurt I decided Roy was right about it being late and decided to return home.

I woke up to the phone ringing and checked the time, 0:43 sighed and got the phone. "Hello?"

"Hey beautiful, I'm sorry I was mad at you before but do you mind picking me up" the recognizable drunken voice said.

"Of course, are you at Madam Christmas's bar?"

"You're so smart, I am so lucky to have a wonderful women like you by my side all the time."

"Mhm, I will be there soon sir," I said and hung up the phone. I got dressed and grabbed my keys off of the table, saying goodbye to Black Hayate as I walked out the door.

I pulled up to the remodeled version of Madam Christmas's host bar, seeing Chris holding Roy up and unsurprisingly smoking. I was sometimes amazed that Roy was raised by this woman, although it did make it clearer about why he was so use to being near girls and knew how to flatter them into liking him.

"Thanks for taking him home again toots, I'd let him stay at my place but since the remodel he won't have a room anymore" Chris Mustang said, blowing smoke into my face.

I resisted coughing and smiled, "Anytime, I am use to it now."

"There's my pretty lady come to my rescue," Roy said getting away from his aunt holding him up, and grabbing me for support. I couldn't resist smiling at that compliment and then said goodbye to Chris carrying Roy to the car and helping him inside.

"Hey my pretty General?"

"Yes Roy," I asked, looking at him in the corner of my eye.

"Can we go to your place; I don't like my lonely, dark apartment."

"Roy that would be completely unprofessional…but considering you will need coffee for your hangover tomorrow and if you made it yourself it would burn…and that we are friends and don't have to work in the morning, yes you can stay the night" I said hoping I wouldn't regret it. I drove in silence while trying to block out Roy's celebrating.

As soon as I parked the car Roy jumped out and ran to my side opening the door surprising me, I wonder how he didn't fall over unless he wasn't as drunk as he was acting earlier. I got out and nodded a thank you to Roy and he grabbed my hand and pulled me closer so he could put his arm around my waist. At the touch of his skin against mine I felt warm and enjoyed it, not wanting anything to come between us but knew that wouldn't happen and pushed him away.

"Riza, don't resist me you don't have to anymore." Roy said in a whining tone.

"I don't understand what you mean by that Roy but I'm pretty sure I do."

"General Hawkeye I order you to let me hold you." Roy demanded, looking into my eyes in an apologetic way but I knew he wasn't.

"You order me?"

"That is what I said didn't I" Roy asked then grabbed me again and held me to his chest; I struggled a couple of seconds then gave up since I did kind of want it. "You know Riza you mean the world to me, I am sorry I upset you."

"Its okay sir, I'll pretend it's because you're drunk." He chuckled and walked me up the stairs into my apartment, we both walked at a slower pace than we normally would. When we walked into the apartment Black Hayate ran up and jumped on me.

"Hey boy, you should have gone back to bed." Black Hayate barked as if I could understand. I put Black Hayate on his chair that he claimed and walked Roy into my room. "Sir?" I said to Roy.

"Yes Riza what is it?"

"Why don't I have to resist you? Does it have to do with what you and fuhrer Grumman were talking about?"

"Yes, you can now date your superiors starting tomorrow, if we didn't start the meeting so late it might have been today but as long as we can be together…" he trailed off.

"That is very stupid and kind…good night Roy," I said, walking out of the room.

"Riza where are you going?"

"To sleep on the couch."

"Nope, I will not allow that," Roy said getting up and dragging me to the bed then locked himself around me so I couldn't move.

"Roy let go of me."

"Promise not to leave?" I nodded and he let me go but lightly remained hugging my waist making me feel warm and tingly. After a while I got use to Roy's embrace and cuddled into his chest wrapping my arms around him and feel asleep.
