Knowing
Roy Mustang was in love with Maes Hughes. Of that Riza was certain. She'd noticed the stolen glances, the staring off into space. She'd noticed the sighing and the occasional burst of depression that seemed to occur whenever Hughes mentioned some particular development in his relationship with Gracia. She'd noticed the pain in Roy's eyes whenever Hughes' back was turned. She had been with Roy when, after being Hughes' best man, he'd drunk too much and let it all slip out. She also knew that Hughes did not love Roy back.
Riza had put up with Roy, had been there for him when Hughes was killed, had gone with him on all of his missions. Each day, the hole left by Hughes became a little bit smaller. Each day, he came closer to smiling again. Riza knew that that hole would never simply go away, but she also knew that time could patch it up. Or, at least, she hoped so.
Because Riza Hawkeye was in love with Roy Mustang.
A/N – Meh. Kinda cliché, but it just stuck in my head, and I couldn't get it out. I'm in a onesided RoyHughes phase at the moment, so…yeah. I like this one. Do you? REVIEW! Hey, that rhymes! Mmkay, I'll go away now.
