I have already typed this up and I really, really liked it. Then while I was spell checking it just so happened to FREEZE and I wanted to cry, I'm trying to get this one to be as good or better than the first one I wrote but I don't know how that will work out.

Reviews would make me really happy!

Roy and Riza Mustang, married and completely in love. At first they wouldn't even tell each other that they did, or have, always scared that one would be used against the other. Roy Mustang is the Flame Alchemist and there for has killed many people, ripped apart many families, and destroyed many towns and/or villages, always under the watchful eye of the Military. Roy has made many enemies while fulfilling his duties as a Military dog and that makes it that he has to watch his back, and protect the ones that he loves.

Riza is his right hand gal. They have worked together for quite a while now and ended up falling completely head over heals with each other. She has been with him every step of the way, and always will be. Riza has also killed many people, and helped rip apart families and destroy villages, for she was an expert gunman and is the rank right under Roy. She is the one pushing him to the top. Also a Military dog.

Tonight they were at the Hughes's house for dinner. They had a nice little house in Central. They're kitchen was a nice size with many cupboards, the floor was tile, and the counter tops were a fake marble. It had a nice little table in the middle of the floor that you could put extensions in if you needed more room.

They were sitting at the table finishing up the lemon chicken and mashed potato's with vegetables that Gracia had made. Riza had finished and was now focused on Elicia.

Elicia was the Hughes's daughter. She always wore pigtails and was a short little thing. Everyone adored her, but no one more than her own father. To her father she was his star light to get through, his little girl, is one and only. Maes was a family man, for he fell in love with the perfect wife and had the perfect child, you could just say he was the luckiest man alive with he perfect little family in Central.

"I can do it," Riza told herself. "I can do it, I can tell him," she told herself again, as if it were helping.

"Are you alright Honey?" Gracia noticed her dearest friend's expression.

"I'm-- I'm fine," Gracia could clearly see that she wasn't and she knew why. She could tell by the way that she looked at Elicia, and the way she wasn't connected to Roy as she always was. How she was distant, and seemed to clearly be in a different world, as if all that mattered disappeared, like it evaporated into thin air. She could tell.

"Are you sure?" Gracia gave her the look that told her that she knew and that she was there for her.

"Yeah, thanks Gracia," Riza wasn't only saying 'thank you' for the fact that she cared, but for the fact that she didn't have to go throw the process of telling her everything. Gracia was making it easy for her. Riza was grateful that she had such a wonderful friend, someone that made her life so much easier.

Gracia smiled a content smile that relaxed Riza for a second before she looked back at Elicia and then to Roy, then every feelings before came rushing back to her. What was she going to do?

"I guess we better get going," Roy spoke up as Gracia got up to pack some of the left overs for the two before they left. In truth Roy didn't want to leave. He felt the feeling of discomfort and anguish coming from Riza and he didn't know how to help her. Riza didn't want to go home for she knew that she would have to tell him once they got home, and for that she was moving sluggishly slow while getting up and putting her arms through the wholes of her jacket as Roy held it up for her.

When they got to the door Elicia stopped Roy. She really adored Roy, for she thought of him as her uncle.

"Uncle Roy, when will you be back?" Her question was in a whine, that's the way she always got her way. No one could see the little thing in pain, not even me. Riza looked at her as her own neice and would protect her with her own life.

"I'll be back on Tuesday, after work. I thought I would take you to the park," he told her and when he saw the smile form on her lips he smiled a content smile and the whole room seemed to calm.

Roy and Elicia would aways go to the park, and then out to 'Ice Cream Alchemist'. Her mother didn't know that she got ice cream every time she went out with her uncle. She thought she just came home happy, but in truth she was coming home with a complete sugar rush.

Gracia and Elicia gave Roy and I hugs. Hughes shook Roy's hand and gave Riza a hug as well. Gracia gave Riza the left overs, and then they both stepped out to their car.

It was a quiet ride home. For neither of them wanted to have the conversation that was going to come next, and Roy didn't even know what the hell it was about.

They got in the house and Riza went to sit on the couch, not even bothering to turn on the television. Roy was banging around in the kitchen, Riza swore that he had the metabolism of a race horse, he ate all the time.

"Roy," she called. He didn't answer. "Roy," she said a bit louder, for she couldn't get her voice any higher.

Roy went and stood in the door way, his facial expression was horrified, for he didn't know what was to come next.

"Roy.. I'm--I'm--I'm pregnant," she stuttered. She didn't look up from her hands in her lap. Roy was silent. Riza looked up, which was a mistake.

"Wh-What? How... How could this happen. We said we wouldn't, No!" Roy was heated for him and Riza had said that they wouldn't bring a child into this fucked up world of violence, killing of innocence, and hatred. They said that they wouldn't, they promised each other.

"Some things just happen Roy," she said back in a small voice. It wasn't a smart move to be around Roy when he was like this, it was best for him to be alone.

"No, no Riza. These things don't just happen," he looked at her in her dark eyes, which were filled with tears. "What the hell are we going to do, this was all a mistake," and with that he stormed out and drove away.

Riza wasn't sure what was all a mistake. Maybe he was talking about her, or their marriage, or the fact that he fell in love with her. The only thing she knew was that he left her for god knew how long, left her to deal with all of this herself, left her to cry herself asleep in an empty bed, left to think about all the things that have gone wrong.


Ends sad. It will get happier.
