And all because of that damned cold

chapter 1

AN; I have never heard of Edward having a cold, so heres the consequences I thing might happen if he had one.

Enjoy!


Disclaimer; they own the neighbourhood, I just rent a house.

Edward Elric woke to drool covering his arm in a slick film, he felt sick to the stomach every time he swallowed, so it seemed his body had given up swallowing while he was sleeping and had let the spit just leek from his cotton ball mouth and onto his arm that was cushioning his head while the train jostled around him.

"nnnghoog," Edward said through his stuffed up nostrils as he raised his cheek from the slimy bare automail arm, not the best way to start a morning.

"Good morning to you too brother, did you sleep well? You must have been dreaming about food, or something yummy, because you were drooling more than usual." Alphonse' voice was way too happy for the time of day –morning- and Edward groaned, his throat closing dryly in protest and electing another moan in the blond.

"Al," he croaked out, "I feel like shit, got it? Now please don't talk again for a year or two so I don't feel like ripping your head off." Witch wouldn't be possible right now anyway since I can't even raise my head let alone find the energy to kill you. Ed soon gave up and let his head flop back heavily –and painfully- on his slimy automail arm.

"Perhaps we should get you to a doctor? You don't look so good." Alphonse; always thinking of others, if only he would learn not to talk and just think the helpful thoughts…

"Brother? Brother… Edward?" but his asking went unanswered, Edward was drooling again, his face pressed at an odd angle as he slept so the drool ran upwards towards an unsuspecting nose and tightly closed eyes.

Maybe he has a cold… Alphonse thought as he pulled his brothers top down and turned his head so the drool would run down his cheek instead of up his nose.

Damn cold.

AN/ yep I have a cold, and a doozy at that, I just got over the last one yesterday, and I catch one today…wonderful just grand. And the painful thing is that I woke up just like Edward, but worse, my pillow was completely soaked also. Damn colds, you always get em when you need them least.
