A/N: Hello, I'm back for more royai! You might know me for my other fics, some of which are still on-going. To those who are reading/following 'A Vacation Riza Would Never Regret', 'Overthrowing Troubles', 'Time Troubles' and 'Fantasy To Reality', I'll be updating them within the next few months! For now, please let me post a two-shot.
Got this two-shot's plot idea when I dreamt of someone. Slightly based from experience.
Disclaimer: Fma's not mine. Only this plot. Well i wish. I want to be cool too.
Fiction Title: When You Became Mine
Chapter Title: Back To The Past
(this does not go by the manga/anime)
Present
"Dad, Ryan made Maes cry again!" A certain dark-haired 7-year old girl called out. As if on cue, a toddler's ear-piercing cries engulfed the entire Mustang household.
"Raven, switch with me for a sec, I'll check on your brothers." Replied Roy to his daughter. He turned off the tap and wiped his soaked hands using a hand towel. Raven entered the kitchen and continued washing the dishes as her father dashed out to her brothers.
Roy made a beeline upstairs to his children's room. As he got closer, the cries of his youngest son, Maes, got even louder and more unbearable.
"What's happening in here?" Roy asked as he peeked his head inside. Shockingly, his 2-year old son had a bloody little cut on his eyebrow while his 7-year old had a similar cut on his cheek. Little Maes clutched on his stuffed giraffe as if it would save his life, and he wailed as loud as his lungs could. Ryan, on the other hand, was glaring at his younger brother while holding what seems to be a broken toy.
As soon as Roy caught glimpse of the blood on his sons' faces, he burst the door open and rushed to them.
"Riza! The boys!" Roy called out to his wife in panic.
"Papa!" Maes cried as he crawled to his father, his face completely glistening with tears. Roy kneeled down and cradled the baby and the giraffe. Maes nuzzled on his father's neck and encircled his stubby little arms around it. Roy kissed his cheek and snuggled him closer.
"Ryan, what happened?"
Ryan, also close to tears, replied, "Maes broke my favorite toy, daddy! The one you missed work just to buy it for me! He even threw a part on my face after he ripped it apart." He concealed his tearful onyx eyes with his arm. A sob escaped from his lips and his father draped an arm around his shoulders and hugged his sons to his chest.
Riza came inside the room only to find her favorite boys crying on her favorite man. "Roy? Ryan? Maes?"
"Love, you might wanna get some bandages." Roy said calmly. Riza caught sight of the cuts and rushed out to grab the first aid kid.
"Ryan, buddy, couldn't you have been more understanding towards your little brother? He's just a baby."
"But, dad.."
"I can always buy you a new one. Perhaps even thousands of those, if you wanted to. You didn't have to hurt your brother because he broke it."
"But daddy, this one has sentimental value." The obsidian-haired boy reasoned out. "You saved up for this and sacrificed a lot just to get this. Besides, I always play with this whenever you're out to work."
Roy couldn't help but plant a light kiss on the young man's head. Ryan loved his daddy too much, and cherished every time and gift he gets from him. Roy sighed and let go of Ryan. He wiped the tears on his face and grabbed a piece of paper and a blue crayon lying on the floor next to them. Maes looked up from his father's neck to watch what he's doing.
"You love the toy that much? Here let me show you a little secret." Roy smiled as he drew a transmutation circle. Riza forbade him to do any form of alchemy in front of the kids due to its possible dangers, but he decided it's a perfect day to break the rules. He took the broken pieces and laid them on top the paper. He touched the circle and they watched as it glowed a bright red color.
"Dad, you fixed it!" Ryan beamed as the red glow died out. Maes even showed his own appreciation as he giggled and clapped his tiny hands together.
Riza re-entered the children's room with the first aid kid in her hands. She took her place beside her husband and got Maes out of Roy's arms, and onto her lap. Whilst opening the kit, Riza sighed.
"I don't even want to know what happened in here." Riza disinfected the cut as her youngest baby chewed on the stuffed giraffe. "And Roy, don't even try to hide that transmutation circle you just made." She said, not looking up from their son.
Roy stopped his hand midway from hiding and crumpling the used paper.
Riza placed the bandage and buttoned the top button of Maes' onesie, then handed him to Roy. Riza got Ryan in front of her and tended his wounds as well.
"Do you have anything to say to your brother?"
Ryan frowned and kissed his little brother's head. "Big brother is sorry, Maes."
The whole Mustang family later on was watching tv on the living room. Sitting on the lounge chair was Roy and perched on his lap was his wife while she cradled little Maes in a tiny bundle. The twins were half-laying on the couch on either end.
Raven broke the silence by cackling at the sight of her twin brother with a bandage.
"HA! Ryan, your face really looks hilarious." Raven hid her giggles by covering the couch pillows on her face.
"Whatever, Raven." Ryan threw her another pillow, which she accurately dodged. This caused Raven to chuckle even more. She grabbed all the pillows she could reach and started a pillow fight with her twin.
"Oh, you're asking for it." Ryan also grabbed all the pillows he could get and played with his sister.
"Don't even try to wake up your baby brother. It's not that easy to make him fall asleep." Roy sighed as he tightened his arms around Riza's waist.
Riza chuckled lightly as she watched her twins. "Roy, remember when we would play like this too?"
"All I remember is there were no pillows, only a gun. And I was the only one doing the running."
Riza chuckled louder. "Hey, I was having fun."
Roy tensed up at her words. "You could get me killed!"
"But I didn't."
"Yeah you didn't. But we did have a pillow fight before. Back when I was 15 and you were 13." Roy and Riza started to go to a trip down the memory lane and occasionally chuckled at the memories.
Raven paused from the pillow fight and asked her parents, "Mom, dad, just how did you meet?"
"Yeah, and how did you became a couple?" Ryan added.
"You really want to know?" Riza asked.
15 years ago
"Hey, Mustang, quit drinking we're gonna be late for class, man!" Havoc, one of the school bad boys, called.
"Look here, Havoc." Roy threw his half empty alcohol bottle towards the huge pile of trash. The bottle broke and the trash got soaked. He then took out his matchbox, took a match, ignited it then threw it on the same way. Seconds later, the huge pile of garbage roared with flames, swallowing it whole.
"Woah man! That's awesome! How did it burn that fast?" Havoc beamed.
Roy gave a sideward glance at his pal. "Alcohol is flammable, stupid. Let's go," he playfully smacked Havoc on the underside of his head.
By the time the boys arrived at school, they already missed their first 3 periods.
"Well, we're late for third period again." Havoc shrugged, then tucked his hands inside his pants pockets.
"But, we're early for lunch. C'mon!" Roy lifted his red cap and ran his hands through his midnight black locks, then placed it backwards and headed for the cafeteria. Along the way the boys strode down the hallways walking like they were kings. All the ladies had to pause from whatever they were doing just to drool over seeing the bad boys, especially Roy with his signature sexy smirk.
Maes Hughes was heading towards their direction and the boys simultaneously gave him a high five on either hand because Maes crossed in between them. Havoc and Roy threw him a knowing smirk whereas Maes sent them a wink. Seeing their actions, all the girls swooned harder, while some even fainted.
A/N: Hi, I just had to end this chapter here. I have my reasons. I gave you a sneak peek of what happened to Roy and Riza 15 years ago! I'll post the next and final chapter maybe tomorrow or the next day.
I didn't make the vocab that deep cause sometimes my little siblings read my stories but they don't completely understand. My apologies.
Sorry for the errors, if there are any. I didn't take time to edit this.
