If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh, oh, oh, oh

Edward looked down as the casket that contained his one true love was lowered into the ground. He knew she was buried in a white, satin dress. Her one true meaning in life, purity.

"If you would all like to take a minute to pray…" Fuhrer Mustang trailed off as he bowed his head. Edward refused to pray, for he was an alchemist but in this instant he asked God of one thing.

Keep her safe, make her happy.

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time

He went back to the time he knew. Two weeks ago, the day he wished never happened...

"What do you want, Mustang?" He asked irritated about being called into the office. He wasn't a State Alchemist anymore. He plopped himself into the chair in front of Mustangs desk, slouching.

"I can't believe I'm actually saying this," Mustang mumbled as Edward stared at him, raising his eyebrow. "Yori's dead."

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

"Edo, did you know that it's sunny today?" Yori asked him, her light brown hair hanging over her shoulders as she leaned towards him. He just looked up at her as she leaned over him.

"Yes, Yori, I did know that." He said smiling as her breath tickled his cheeks. "What about it?"

"Were going to go outside!" She screamed, jumping in the air, throwing her hands up. She grinned widely at him as he stretched and got up. Grabbing her hand, he smiled to himself, pulling her out the door.

"Of course, Yori, whenever you want." He said to her as they walked down the hotel stairs and out the door.

"Forever?" She asked him, looking hopefully up at him. He nodded, still smiling sweetly down at the love of his life.

"Forever."

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls

What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a gone
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

She only wanted people to know who she was. If only he was there, there to save her, there to love her. It was his entire fault. He put all the blame on himself. He should've told her. He should've listened to her. If he had, she wouldn't be dead. Maybe he could've saved her. Maybe, just maybe.

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh, oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em, oh

"You can't blame yourself, brother." Alphonse said to him. He just shook his head and shrugged.

"If I had been there, Al…" He trailed off tears making their way to his eyes. He shook his head rubbing his eyes. His black suit catching the tear that fell from them.

"It's not your fault, Fullmetal. There's nothing that could have be done." Fuhrer Mustang said walking past him, his hand lingering on his shoulder in a fatherly way.

"There never is…"

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
