Chapter 2- Lost Without You

Winry's POV

I just stared at them as they walked toward the train station. It had been a rather… awkward week. A few days after I told Ed how I felt, he started spending more time with me rather than Roy, which was odd. Maybe he finally realized whom he's supposed to be with. I continued to stand there in a daze, completely ignoring Den until he scratched at my leg with his auto mail paw. I winced at the pain but did my best to ignore it. I looked down and decided to clean up the blood when I now saw it was staining the wood on the porch. Sighing, I turned around to go inside.

Normal POV

Ed gazed out at the blurry scenery speeding past him. He was thinking about the past week. The last four days went by painfully slow. He tried to be nicer to Winry, but didn't think she'd get the wrong idea. He later decided it wasn't working when Winry wouldn't stop hitting on him. He could tell Roy was jealous, but had done an incredible job at hiding it.

Edward jumped when he felt someone start to play with his long golden hair, but soon relaxed when he recognized who it was. "Roy…" He murmured leaning into the touch, Roy was the only person who could do this and get away with it. It showed a great deal of trust, confirming Ed really had no feelings for Winry.

When they were finally back home, Ed threw his bags behind him successfully hitting Al. Ed was currently not in the best mood. He was sore from being in the cramped space on the train, and because he had just had to deal a week with Winry. Sure, he liked her, but not when she was obsessing over him. Al knew his brother had thrown his bags at him on purpose, but figured he deserved it. If it weren't for him, they would've never left, and Ed wouldn't be in a murderous mood or on his brothers list of "people to get revenge on". (Ed has one of those? O.O) When Ed looked at him, he cringed and just wanted to go hide in his own little corner. Yup. He was DEFFIENANTLY on that list.

"Um… I'm gonna go up to my room… and… uh… pack... I mean… unpack!" Al said nervously, trying to get away from his demon possessed Brother.

Ed flopped down onto the couch, too tired to stand. "Yeah, yeah," he mumbled into the couch cushion. It was barley audible but Al heard just as clearly as he would if Ed had yelled it. Al turned and ran up the stairs as fast as he could. 'Why isn't brother mad at Roy? Or yeah, Roy didn't particularly want to go either.' Al felt a wave of guilt hit him as he closed the door behind him. He didn't want people to suffer on his account, even if it was something like this.

Al sighed and began to unpack all his belongings.

Roy glanced up at his sleeping lover. The golden hair lay messily out on a silk pillow; his lips were just barely parted. All of this reflected off the setting sun, giving the illusion of him glowing, making him look like an angel. 'His hair is the perfect halo,' Roy mused, sighing to himself. He was amazed that this angel was his fiancée.

He looked back down at the book he was attempting to read, but couldn't keep his attention on it for more than 5 seconds. He was too tired and the world seemed to be spinning. However, the spinning always stopped when he looked at the angel before him. It was as if the angel had cast a spell that makes all pain and tiredness go away. It seemed perfect. No, it was perfect. He never would've thought this boy would love him, or even like him as a friend, but fate said differently. Now here they were, about to get married. Roy smiled, getting up and cradling the magical angel in his arms, and brought him upstairs to their bed.

Winry sighed as she looked out her window. It was oddly quiet now that everyone had left. It was nice having everyone over. She finally decided that Roy wasn't the worst person in the world, even if he had caused her a lot of pain already. At first, it seemed like Roy was taking everyone she cared about away from her, first her parent, then Edward. However, it seemed like he didn't really love Ed. It seemed more like Ed was his precious boy toy. Ed was evidently completely in love with him, but changed his mind over the past week. So now, they so obviously didn't love each other. At least, it seemed obvious to her. Roy was a womanizer, and probably didn't care about anything except sex and power. Plus, Edward wasn't someone who would fall in love easily with anyone, let alone a guy fourteen years older than him.

A shrill ringing sound distracted her from her thoughts. At first, she just thought about ignoring it, but the ring wouldn't stop, and it was giving her a headache. Tripping on her way over, she finally managed to answer it.

"Rockbell auto mail," Winry said lazily into the phone.

"Hi," an unsure voice came from the other line "I just lost my left hand due to a… accident. I was wondering if you could give me some auto mail."

"Sure, when do you wanna make the appointment?" Winry asked excitedly. Finally, something to get her mind off Ed.

"Would next Tuesday at 4 be good?"

"Of course," Winry pulled out a clipboard with a sheet of paper that had all her patients names on it, "I just need you first and last name and your phone number, incase we need to reschedule or something,"

"Alli Jones, -. Can you tell me how long the surgery will take?"

"Well, first we need to get measurements to see how big we should make your hand, and then we need to actually make it. Then we need to do the surgery. Therefore, it should take about 2-3 days."

"Do you know of anywhere I could stay while you're working on it?'

"Oh, um… usually we only get customers that are from Risembool. So it usually isn't a problem. But we do have a guest room you could stay in," Winry replied slowly. She was a little hesitant on letting some stranger use the room Ed and Al have claimed "Theirs", but it really wasn't, so it shouldn't matter.

"Really? Thank you SO much."

"Anytime." It was almost like talking to a friend; not someone she hasn't even met. She seemed nice…

'Wow,' Winry thought, 'our first customer since Ed left, and it was only about an hour or so. And she's not even from Risembool! I never thought that would happen…"
