Theme Two: I'm Leaving Now
--
"I'm leaving now," Ed spoke as he walked through the doorway. "I have everything packed."
The man sitting behind the desk didn't answer, or even acknowledge that he had heard Ed.
"I just wanted to come by and let you know that I was leaving," Ed tried again, hoping for a response. After ten minutes, when no reply came, Ed turned to leave.
"Wait," Roy finally spoke, as he rose from his desk, and came to stand in front of Ed.
Ed titled his Ed to floor as Roy stared into his eyes.
"I am sorry," Roy started, as he gently grasped Ed's chin and pushed up until he was once again looking into his eyes. "I am just so scared."
That one admission startled Ed. "Scared of what," Ed finally asked.
"Scared of losing my son," Roy answered his voice cracking.
Son. Roy had said son. Ed couldn't believe it. Cold hearted bastard, Roy Mustang, thought of him as a son.
"Why," Ed asked, tears silently making there way down his cheeks.
"I don't know why," Roy spoke honestly. "I just don't want to lose you. You are like a son. No, you are my son." With that said Roy pulled Ed to his chest engulfing him in a tight hug.
"Don't leave," Roy said through the tears. "I love you son."
