From Nightmares to Love (chap. 1)
It was a rainy and cold outside and Ed was stuck inside his hotel room.
"Fuck you sky…" He said as he smacked his head on his pillow staring out the window. "And I doubt the colonel will cancel that damn meeting." With that Ed got dressed in his uniform, ate a quick breakfast and was out the door with an umbrella and some files he needed.
Ed was now walking down the street unopened umbrella in hand. He liked the feel of rain on his skin; it felt cold and relaxes him from all the stress. Then a sudden gust of wind blew his papers out of his hand. 'Shit!' Ed rushed to grab his papers. The last one was in the street and he dashed blindly into it unaware of the bus speeding down the street.
~~~Roy's POV~~~
"Man it's pouring today." I sighed looking out the window at the monochrome skies. I'm pretty sure I called everyone and said the meeting was canceled. Well Ed didn't pick up but knowing him he wouldn't have come anyway… maybe I should check on him since his brother's in Risembool. I put my ignition gloves in my pocket got an umbrella and out the door in a flash. After a while the rain was falling steadier and slower and a moment later I could see a ray of sunlight. Finally! I hate the rain. I had just turned the corner to see a familiar face. It was Ed! I wonder what he's doing outside in weather like this, seems like he's trying to get something in the street. My eye's strayed away from the boy to see a bus speeding down the lane, shit Ed!
~~~Regular POV~~~
Instinctively, Roy ran to stop Ed. He grabbed him by the waist and pulled him back on the sidewalk. They stood there for a few seconds in what looked like a hug.
Ed just stood there staring at Roy's dark black eyes racking his brain to find any words to say. Just then he realized Roy was still holding him; his grip was firm and protective.
" Okay I'm good, so CAN YOU LET GO OF ME NOW!" Ed said to cover up his embarrassment, Roy let go with a smirk.
"You should be nicer to the person who just saved your ass not to mention your boss."
"Shut up!" I could've saved myself! What are you doing here anyway?"
"Well like the nice person I am, I wanted to see if you were ok with Al not there to keep you company n'all" Roy was still smirking then he was confused "Wait where are you going anyway?" Ed said nothing feeling a bit embarrassed in his wrong inquirery. "You thought we had the meeting today didn't you."
"Well what could I expect from a bastard that works me like a dog everyday!" He was starting to get pissed off.
"Oh I just thought the labor would help you with your short problem." At that point Ed just lost his temper.
"WHO YOU CALLING SO SHORT YOU CAN'T SEE WITH A MICROSCOPE!" He was felling particularly pissed today so he stormed off in some random direction.
'Wow he's usually doesn't get that angry so fast I wonder what's wrong.' Roy thought to himself, sincerely worried as he watched the young alchemist sprint away.
