Just a Vacation

This purely fan made. I do not own FullMetal Alchemist. The owner is Hiromu Arakawa.

Author's Note: This I started with a friend but decided to have us both write something different. The thing is we both use the first paragraph and the three lines after that and branch out from that. I wanted to see how much different each of our stories turned out. Hope you guys like.

Chapter 1 A Romantic What?!

First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye didn't really understand how she ended up sitting across from her superior officer, Colonel Roy Mustang, on a train to her grandfather's house. Her grandfather had walked in their office a few days ago and told them to take a vacation for the next week because the both of them were coming to visit him and her grandmother, which he had to announce in front of Havoc, Breda, Falman, and Fuery. Heaven knows what kind of rumors are going to start now and how much work's not going to get done. She sighed to herself at that thought.

"Something wrong?" Roy asked, after hearing a sigh come from her.
"No, everything is fine, sir." Riza answered, looking at him with a slight smile.
"Don't call me 'sir'.", He complained with one of his lady killer smirks, "Call me 'Roy'. We are off duty after all."
She rolled her eyes at the black haired Colonel. "I'd prefer not, sir."

"Aw. Come on, Riza."

"No."

"Please?" Roy begged again.

"Fine, Roy." She mumbled with a bit of anger in her tone. "Happy now?"

"Yes." He stated simply, turning his gaze to the window. "How much longer 'till we get there, anyways?"

"About 5 minutes." Riza answered, unable to move her gaze from the board, yet content look on Roy's face. Black Hayate, who had been sleeping by his master's feet, stood up and walked up to Roy, putting his head on his lap showing he wanted his ears scratched. Which Roy did for him, absently, while off in thought of what he and Riza would be doing on there little 'vacation' the General had planed out.

"Roy." Riza shook the young Colonel lightly, that had actually fallen asleep in less than 5 minutes. "Roy, wake up. We have to get off."

There was a small grunt from Roy as he slowly opened his onyx eyes to see two reddish amber ones looking back at him. Riza stepped back as soon as she felt a little blush warm her face, giving him room to stand up and stretched with a smirk on his lips. Riza turned on her heel, partly to hide the little blush she still had, and started to walk off the train, with Roy and Hayate in tow. They didn't have to worry about their luggage, Grumman would get it and all they had to worry about was getting it in the car.

"Hello both of you." Grumman called from a little bit away with their luggage at his feet and motioning for them to come over. As Roy and Riza walked over, with the little pup at their feet, Grumman took in what they were wearing. They were both in civilian clothing, Roy was wearing a grey button up shirt and black pants while Riza was wearing a button up white shirt and a grey skirt with her long blond hair down.

"Hello, General." Roy greeted when standing in front of him and gave a small salute, for a second.

"Hello, grandfather. It's good to see you again." Riza smiled and gave Grumman a kiss on the cheek. Hayate jumped up and down until Grumman bent down to pet him.

"Well, it's good to see the both of you again." Grumman said, kindly with a smile. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yes." Riza answered for them all.

"Alright then, grab you luggage and I'll show you to the car." He replied gesturing to the luggage at his feet. They nodded and grab it. Then they followed him to the car without another word.

When they got to the car, they loaded both their luggage in the trunk. Riza picked her little black and white pup up and got in to the front passengers seat with him. Roy got in the back because Grumman was driving.

"How was the train ride?" Grumman asked, breaking the silent that had lasted for the fifteen minutes of the car ride.

"Long and boring." Roy replied lazily, looking to the front of the car. "Wouldn't you agree, Riza?"

"Yes, there wasn't much to do." Riza agreed, turning her gaze to look at Roy with Hayate asleep in her lap.

"Well then, you should both be looking forward to your romantic vacation then." Grumman said with a smile and kept his eyes on the rode, even though he wanted to see their expressions.

"Our what?!" Riza blurted out, turning to look at him with a slight blush on her face. Roy was just as shocked and was look straight at him, mouth open like he was going to say something. Grumman just laughed as he pulled in the drive way to his house.

"We're here." He said as he parked the car.
