Just For Now

By: Mitsuki

He didn't know what it was that drew him to the Colonel. Maybe it was that smug grin he always wore. Maybe it was how he could always get under his skin. Or maybe it was just the fact that he knew what they had tried to do. He knew of the horror and yet instead of showing pity or trying to understand what they were going through he just sat back and watched. Watch the two boys come near death on more than one occasion. Watch them grow mentally. Their bodies didn't seem to change over the years. In a weird way he had always been there for them. Always making sure they didn't get into too much trouble. Just for some reason it never crossed his mind. Now looking back, Edward Elric finally started to realize how much the Colonel meant to him. Yeah he could be a self-centered jerk at times but still that was just his way of showing he cared. In a way he could almost made Ed forget the pain he went through. Forget all that he had lost. After all if it hadn't been for Mustang, Ed wouldn't have any clues as to haw to return his brothers body back to normal. Maybe one day Ed would tell the Colonel what he meant to him, but just for now he would pretend that hatred and annoyance were the only things he felt.

A/N Hey I know this is really short but I wanted to put this before I started writing the real story. I guess you can think of this as a prologue. I hope this comes out the way I want it to. I'll try and update soon. Please review and give me any ideas you have. Thanks. Luv Ya -Mitsuki-
