-Edward-
EQUIVALENT EXCHANGE!
*Flip*
*I'LL GIVE HALF OF MY LIFE TO YOU IF YOU GIVE HALF OF YOURS TO ME!
*Flip Flip*
"I actually said that", smirked Edward.
The proposal had changed him somewhat. For the first time, the Fullmetal Alchemist and the hothead runt was actually thinking seriously about something. And that something seemed to dwarf his quest to see the West. A thirst that had a name, 'Winry'
"I need to do a better job the next time I see her. After all, she agreed to give 85% of her life, didn't she?" he thought.
Edward had been worried the day he left. All that time he was fighting to get his and his brother's bodies back. He was fighting for Amestris and its entire population. Now it was over. He did not have Alchemy beside him and his brother had regained his body. He had been scared that he had lost all purpose in his life.
Edward closed his book and settled down for the night. He was due to arrive at Creta in the morning.
"I have someone to fight for. A person to come back home to", he thought.
-Winry-
COME ON! DO YOU HAVE TO TREAT EVERYTHING LIKE ALCHEMY?
*Clink*
HOW ABOUT I JUST GIVE YOU MY WHOLE LIFE?
*Clink Clink*
"I actually said that", giggled Winry.
She knew it would be coming. The attraction between them was obvious. It wouldn't be two minutes into a conversation before they both shut up. Now it all seemed real.
She put the automail back in its shelf and turned in for the night.
"I have someone to wait and hope for", she thought.
