Chapter 1 A letter, Scones, and Pictures

Riza Hawkeye's day started out just like any other. She got up, got ready, let Hayate out, and ate a fast breakfast. All of this before 6:30 and then she went to work.

'As usual, I'm the first one here…again' she thought as she opened the door. She placed her bag down by her desk and paused as she noticed a sealed letter on her desk.

Curious, she picked it up and broke the seal:

First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye,

You and your co-workers have been assigned to designated groups to go on vacation. You may bring a guest if you like. Your group includes: Colonel Roy Mustang, Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes, and Edward and Alphonse Elric. Please report to the Central Airport at 0800 hours to catch your flight. Enjoy your vacation.

Fuhrer King Bradley

Riza read it over a few times, then sighed, 'How is it going to be a vacation if we have to keep the Colonel and Edward from killing each other'

While she was thinking, she never noticed who had come into the office only moments ago. Roy Mustang stood right behind her with a lopsided grin.

'This is going to be fun, even if she pulls the gun on me, it will be worth it to see her surprised. She's never surprised. At least she never shows it' he thought.

"Good morning Lt. Hawkeye. What's that you got there?"

Riza jumped in surprise, dropped the letter and wheeled around with her gun pointed right between his eyes. Her eyes widened and he just smiled, 'Gotcha'

She lowered her gun and saluted him, "Colonel! Forgive me sir, you startled me."

"At ease Lt. I didn't mean to to surprise you."

"It's alright sir, wait, why are you here so early? You're never here early." Her eyes narrowed as she glared at him with those piercing amber eyes.

He gulped, "Well, I work here, and I might have lost my keys and was locked out of my house so I had to stay here for the night…Lt. why are you laughing?" he asked as she started to laugh and she continued to laugh and soon he had joined her.

When they both had stopped laughing, Riza got serious again, "Sir? Permission to speak freely?"

Roy nodded as he walked over to his desk, "Permission granted."

"May I ask how The Flame Alchemist lost his keys when he could have used alchemy to make them or called Hughes to could come over and let you in?" she smiled and chuckled lightly, where as Roy sank deeper into his chair.

'Damn, why didn't I think of that?'

Riza picked up the letter and deposited it back on her desk, "Well, since you're here, I think I'll go and get our paperwork."

Roy started to whine, "Come on Hawkeye, give me a break for once. Oh, I almost forgot. Are you going to come with us on vacation?"

She nodded, "Yes sir, I am planning to go on vacation. It would be nice to get away from work once in a while. And no breaks sir, if you want to get to the top you have to do the work too." With that, she left to get the paperwork.

Later on that day, everyone was at work, except for Roy, who was sleeping at his desk again. Then Hughes had decided to drop by and show everybody his newest pictures.

"Hey! I have new pictures of Elicia to showeverybody!" everybody sweatdropped and mumbled various excuses and left the room as fast as they could. Leaving only 2nd Lieutenant Jean Havoc in the room with the family obbsessed father.

"Come on Chief, I don't wanna see anymore. We have all seen your daughter and she's downright adorable and all but come on, there's gotta be a limit on how much a man can take." 2nd Lieutenant Jean Havoc said as he cowered against the far wall away from Hughes.

"Lt. Colonel, shouldn't you be in the investigations dept. and not here?" Riza asked as she walked in with more paperwork for herself and Roy.

Hughes stopped torturing Havoc long enough to turn around and look at the blonde behind him.

"Hey Riza, you wanna see my darling daughter?" he pushed his pictures into her face and was answered by a 'click' of a safety being turned off.

"Lt. Colonel, I have seen your daughter many times. I'm even her aunt so get the pictures out of my face before I destroy them. Can you take some of this paperwork to the Colonel." Hughes was wondering how she could hold the large stack of files and hold a gun at the same time.

"Ummm… of course Lt." he said and he took part of the stack and followed her into her and Roy's office.

When she saw that Roy was asleep, she frowned. Riza put the paperwork on her desk and pulled out her gun. She clicked off the safety and aimed at Roy.

'We're going on vacation and I don't want it to start like this' Hughes hurried towards her and set the files on Roy's desk.

"Hold up a minute. Let me try to wake him up before you shoot him." With that said he walked around the desk and stood beside him and paused. Then, he pulled out his ultimate weapon: pictures of his daughter. With a manic grin quickly spreading across his face.

'He is enjoying this way too much…wait, I can't say anything. I enjoy torturing him as much as Maes does' Riza thought as she put away her gun and watched as the obbsessive father began his tirade.

"Hey Roy! My daughter is soooo adorable! I mean look at her! She looks so much like her mother in that hat!" Soon enough, Roy had woken up with his hand in snapping position.

"Dammit Hughes! Get those pictures away from me!" Roy's hand twitched, wanting to incinerate the man in front of him.

"Well Roy, it was either the pictures or getting shot by Hawkeye. Which would you choose?" Hughes said as he backed away from Roy with his hands up in defense.

"I would prefer it if Hawkeye woke me up by shooting at me. You know as well as I do that she wouldn't really shoot me. I wouldn't have to listen to you rant if she woke me up in the first place!" Roy yelled.

Hughes had backed away towards the door, "Oh, I almost forgot did you guys get a letter this morning about going on vacation?"

Roy and Riza both nodded and Roy said, "Yeah, I'm going to leave early so I can pack. By the way, would you happen to have a copy of my house key with you?" Hughes looked confused.

"Yes, I have a copy, but it's not with me at the moment.What do you need it for?"

This time, Riza answered for him, " The Colonel got locked out of his house and stayed here for the night." It took a moment for the words to sink in and when they did Hughes was laughing. Riza tried to conceal a chuckle, but failed miserably.

Roy glared at them both, "It's not really that funny you know."

Maes wiped tears from his eyes, "Actually it is. I can't believe this, Roy Mustang The Flame Alchemist, locked out of his own home. It's almost too much to bare." They continued to laugh and he continued to frown and glare.

Riza stopped laughing and headed to her desk as she heard loud footsteps from the otherside of the door, "You've got company sir."

Then the doors flew open, and no one in sight.

"What the…oh, hello Fullmetal, couldn't see you down there." Roy said with a smug grin on his face.

Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist said, "WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SHORT HE'S THE SIZE OF AN AOMEBA!" arms flailing in all directions with a very pissed off expression.

Roy answered calmly, "Do you see anyone else here as short as you?"

Ed was just about to pounce on him when his brother ran in and restrained him, "No, Brother, leave the Colonel alone. And tell him why you're here" Alphonse Elric (now with his body) let go of his brother when he was sure that he wasn't going to attack anyone.

Ed was about to explain when a flying wrench made its way into the office and hit Ed in the head.

"Ed! You left me behind you jerk!" Winry Rockbell came in through the door panting.

Ed wheeled around, "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?"

"I JUST TOLD YOU SO WHY SHOULD I SAY IT AGAIN?"

"WELL I DIDN'T HEAR YOU, SO TELL ME AGIAIN YOU MECHA MANIAC!"

"MIDGET!"

"WRENCH COLECTOR!"

"BEAN SPROUT!"

This was going to go on for a while if no one was going to stop them soon and Riza had had enough. She whipped out her gun and shot at the wall behind Winry and Ed. The room was dead silent. Everyone in the room was thinking the same thing, 'Scary woman'

"Would you please stop this nonsense and tell us why you came here Edward." She said, still holding her gun.

Ed gulped, "I came here to ask why the hell I have to go on vacation with him!" he points to Roy.

Before Riza could answer, Roy said, "Because the Fuhrer assigned the groups and I can't go against his orders. I assure you I don't want to spend my vacation with you either. I'd rather be in a place with lots of women in miniskirts!"

Riza's vein popped, and she shot a round in his direction. Everyone sweatdropped.

Ed was laughing, "Hahahahhaahaha, and he's supposed to be the next Fuhrer? He gets whipped by his Lt." this time Winry was the one to take action. She hit Ed with her wrench again.

"Dammit Winry that hurt!" he said as he rubbed the back of his head where her wrench had hit him twice that day.

"I don't care! How can you be so inconsiderate!"

Then Roy had to add a comment, "You say I get whipped by my Lt? She whips everybody. Yet look at you, you get whipped by your mechanic." A fight broke out and a cloud of dust formed in the middle of the room and bangs and curses were heard.

"Wow, I never knew there was so much love going on in this place." Maes said, scratching his head. Al could only agree with him.

Soon, Riza and Winry were dragging the unconscious forms of Roy and Ed out of the cloud of dust.

Winry turned to Riza, "Sorry bout Ed Ms. Riza. You know how he gets." she said as she brushed herself off.

Riza smiled, "Yeah, I know how he can get and I know how much the Colonel likes to tease him. Now, Alphonse why don't you take your brother and Winry home so you can pack and be at the airport at 0800 hours tomorrow."

Al nodded and helped Winry drag Ed out of the office. When they were gone, Riza let out her breath.

Hughes went over to her, "Way to handle the situation Riza. Now I think I'm going home to pack and tell Gracia what I'm going to be doing."

"Is there any chance that Gracia could look after Hayate while we're gone?"

He laughed, "I think Elicia would love a playmate. Drop by anytime." He waved as he left the office, careful to step over the unconconsious form in the doorway.

"Thank you Lt. Colonel, I'll see you later on tonight."

After he left, Riza walked over to Roy with her gun in hand and put it near his head and clicked the safety off. Instantly, Roy was up and looking around horrified, "Wha? Hawkeye? WHERE DID THAT SHRIMP GO!?"

Riza had already put her gun away and was heading towards her desk, "They went home early so they could pack. You should go as well." He nodded and stood up. He went over to the coatrack by his desk and grabbed his coat. Then, he went over to the door.

He paused at the door when he saw that Riza hadn't moved but was working on the papers she had brought in earlier.

He turned and walked over to stand in front of her desk, "Hawkeye, when everyone left , you were also allowed to leave. Why aren't you leaving?"

Never taking her eyes off of her work she answered, "All of these need to be done out by tonight and I want to get it done before I leave."

He smiled a little at that comment, 'So like her to put work before everything else'

"Come on Hawkeye, take a break once in a while and leave it alone for now. We're on vacation anyways."

"I'm sorry sir, but these really need to be filled out by tonight." And she continued to work. Roy frowned and then on impulse he walked back over to his desk and began to work on the paperwork that Maes had left on his desk earlier.

By this time, Riza had paused while signing and was staring at him with a confused expression on her face, "Sir, what are you doing?"

"Helping." And with that he took the first sheet and started to sign it.

Riza was stunned. Never had the Colonel done paperwork without a gun pointed at his head. He hated paperwork and when he started working on that stack she thought he was going to burn it, which he didn't.

Riza started to work again, "Why are you doing this sir?"

Roy continued to work, "To repay you for all the times you did this for me."

Now Riza was dumbstruck. What had happened to him to make him like this?

Either way, Riza was able to leave earlier than she had hoped with Roy's help.

Since they were finished, Roy took her coat from the rack while she gathered her things. He helped her into it and they walked out of the building together. When they reached the road they went their separate ways.

Roy bade her goodnight and she smiled, "Thank you sir. I'll see you tomorrow and you get some sleep. You look tired." He grinned and waved goodbye.

Halfway down the road, Roy cursed, "Damn, I forgot to get the key from Hughes." Then he turned around and ran towards his best friend's house.

Riza's House:

Riza had just finished packing and was now putting her guns and ammo into a separate case.(she never goes anywhere without them does she?) With that done, she went into her bedroom to change into something more comfortable. Black Hayate sat there wagging his tail and his head cocked to one side, wondering what his master was doing.

When Riza came back out, Hayate barked. Riza smiled as she knelt down and pat his head, "You like boy?" he barked again and she laughed and stood up.

She walked into the hallway to grab Braha's leash when her eyes landed on a picture. It was her favorite one that was given to her from Maes as a birthday gift a few years ago. She smiled and proceded to grab the leash.

"Come here Hayate. We're going to Hughes.

Hughes Residence:

"Congratulations Roy, I do believe we have just found you a wife! Finally I can be your best man! And who knew that you would fall for our very own Riza Hawkeye?" Hughes was clapping Roy on the shoulders. Roy was blushing and trying to get away from him.

"Shut it Hughes. It wouldn't work anyways. She's my subordintate and I'm her superior officer. Besides that, theres the fratenization rule." Roy stated sadly.

Maes got serious, "You really love her?"

In reply he got a humorless laugh, "I love her more than any other woman I have ever met."

"Then tell her."

"I can't."

"Why not?"

"Because…"

"Because…why?"

"I'm afraid."

Maes feighned surprise, "Is Roy Mustang the Flame Alchemist afraid of being rejected by a woman?"

Roy sighed, "This isn't just any woman here."

Maes laughed nervously, "Yeah, I guess your right."

Roy was about to say something when there was a knock at the door.

"I got it Daddy! I got it!" Elicia yelled as she ran down the stairs with Gracia right behind her.

"Hold up a minute Elicia. It's probably Riza coming to drop off Hayate."

Roy's eyes widened in surprise, then he turned to the man next to him. "Maes, you didn't tell me she was coming over."

Maes rubbed the back of his neck, "Ummmm… I guess I forgot to tell you about that." Roy glared at him.

"Thank you for looking after Hayate for me while I'm gone Gracia." Riza's voice wafted through the house all the way to the living room where Roy and Maes now sat.

"It's really no problem and besides I think Elicia would love to have a play mate. Please, come in."

"Hi Aunty Riza. Did you bring Braha this time?" Elicia said looking around for the puppy.

She smiled and pulled Hayate out from behind her and the pup ran over to Elicia who squealed with delight and ran off to play.

Riza and Gracia watched them go. Then Gracia turned to Riza, "Maes and Roy are in the living room if you wanted to talk to them."

Riza tilted her head, "Huh? The Colonel is here?"

"Yes, apparently he forgot to get his key from Maes, so he came here to get it."

"Oh, hmmm. Yes, I would like to speak to them if you wouldn't mind having another houseguest." Gracia laughed.

"Riza, you are always welcome here. Go on in."

Riza made her way to the living room, and when she got there Maes was giving Roy the key to his house. When Roy saw Riza his jaw dropped.

'Damn, she looks beautiful with her hair down and she's not wearing her uniform. I really need to pass that miniskirt law'

Riza was wearing a white skirt and a a white button up blouse with a tan coat and she had her hair down.

Maes noticed Roy looking at her and his face contorted into a sly grin, "Hey Riza, now that Roy has got his key and you have dropped off Hayate, would you like some scones?"

Riza nodded, "Yes please, I'm famished." And then she sat down opposite of Roy. Maes went to get some scones and they waited for him to return.

Roy had a hard time no staring at Riza and not getting a nosebleed.

Riza sighed, "I never got a chance to thank you for earlier sir. So, I'll do it now. Thank you for your help." Roy smiled.

"It was no trouble at all. You always do it for me so I thought I should return the favor."

Soon, Maes came back out with a bag of scones for the both of them.

" I think it's time for you guys to go. It's Elicia's bed time and we have to get up early too." He handed the bag to Roy.

They nodded and stood up and were immediately pushed out of the house and the door slammed shut behind them.

Roy opened up the package and took out a scone and bit into it, "You know these are really good. Would you like one?" She look at him and realized how hungry she was.

"Yes sir." He continued to eat his scone and started to walk away.

'No way he would just ignore me like that?'she thought. "Colonel, why are you ignoring me?"

He turned around, "It's not Colonel at the moment it's Roy, not sir either, just Roy. We're off duty so you can call me Roy. If you don't say my name you don't get a scone." He grinned as he held a scone, offering it to her.

She frowned and tried to grab the scone from him. He laughed and pulled it out of her reach. She tried again with the same result. She sighed, 'What a tease'

She smirked at him then smiled, "Alright then. Thank you Roy." He smiled too and gave her the scone.

"Now, was that so hard Riza?" her heart skipped a beat as he called her by her name.

"A little bit."

He laughed, "You never change Riza."

When they got to her house, Riza stopped at her door and turned around.

"Would you like to come in and have some tea Roy?" Roy was just about to step off of her porch when he turned to gaze at her in surprise.

His expression changed from confusion to a smirk, "Why Riza are you trying to seduce me with 'click' heh, nevermind. Of course I'll have some tea."

Riza nodded and put her gun away and opened her door to let him in.

"Make yourself at home while I make the tea." Then she disappeared into the kitchen, giving Roy a chance to look around. Riza's was very neat which was to be expected. Very simple yet comfortable. The group of photos on the desk caught his attention and he walked over to it.

There were pictures of their unit and of some family and friends. He smiled at one with Riza as a child holding a water gun with an extremely happy expression. Then his eyes landed on one of him, just him. He was at his desk and he was sleeping. He had a little trail of drool coming from his mouth and a cute smile. He almost laughed at this picture because he remembered how he woke up. Riza had dumped a bucket of ice on him because it was "that time of month" and he had pissed her off earlier that day by not doing his paperwork.

"I could use that picture for blackmail you know." He turned to see Riza leaning up against the wall looking at him with her sharp amber eyes.

He smiled, "I hope you never have to blackmail me."

She grinned evilly, "Oh, you never know when my guns won't work on Ed. I could just give him these and he'd do whatever I wanted him to do."

His eyes widened, "You wouldn't really do that would you?"

She laughed, "Of course not, though it would be fun."

She left him and walked over towards the kitchen, "I came to tell you that the tea is done." He nodded and followed her into the kitchen.

Once they had their tea they went into the living room. They drank their tea in silence and then Riza yawned. Roy set his cup down on the table, "I think I should go Riza, you seem tired so I guess I'll see you tomorrow then. Thank you for the tea."

Riza only nodded and then she closed her eyes. He had reached the door when he called out to her, "I 'll pick you up at seven so we can get some breakfast alright?"

When he didn't get an answer he got worried and ran back to the living room to find Riza fast asleep with a small smile on her face. He smiled and gazed at her with eyes full of love. Then he looked around and found a light blue blanket and draped it over her. Before he left he wrote a note telling her that he would pick her up at seven and take her to breakfast. Then he went out the door.

Hughes Residence:

"Riza and Roy huh?" Gracia asked as she put Elicia to bed.

Maes grinned, "Yep, isn't it perfect?"

She nodded and they turned off the light.
