Well, I got loads of people adding this story to there favorites list, and story alerts. So I decided to update a little earlier than I intended to. So yeah. Here's chapter two!

Last time…

I turned around to see….

…None other than Roy Mustang.

"Are you lost?" He asked, slightly smug.

I glared at him. "No, I just lost the people that were suppose to take me to the office, smug mug." I replied.

He looked at me questioningly. "Smug mug?" He repeated.

I laughed. "It's what my mom called me when I did a face like that." I said.

"Ah." Roy said. "So, since you're lost, want me to show you to the office?" Roy asked.

I nodded.

Roy smiled. "Right this way." He said and started walking.

I just silently fallowed him. The office wasn't really that far away, just hidden. And with the swarm of people around it wasn't easy to locate.

Once reaching the office, Roy held the door open courteously. I lightly blushed at that. Once inside I saw Al and Winry were standing in front of the desk talking to the receptionist, backs to me. They were mumbling things back and forth. Probably getting Al's schedule together. For we had not done this earlier. Even if we were out of school for a week, Auntie Pinako said that it was for us to grieve over our lost and getting settled in.. Not to get started with paperwork.

"Excuse me," Roy said loudly. Grabbing everyone's attention.

All eyes darted towards Roy and I. I blushed at the unwanted attention. Al and Winry looked at me and gave a sigh of relief.

"Ed, good you're here. We were so worried." Winry said.

"Yeah, where were you brother?" Al asked.

"After getting off the bus I lost you guys. You just up and disappeared." I said. "Then when I walked into the school I didn't see you guys and I was about to go off and just try my best to get here, when Roy found me." I said, pointing behind me towards Roy.

"Oh, I see." Al said. "Yeah when we got off the bus we couldn't find you, we just figured you got lost in the crowd. We hoped you'd find your way here some way or another." Winry said. "Thanks for helping Ed, Roy." Winry said.

"It was my pleasure, Winry." Roy said with a smile.

"You two know each other?" I asked.

Winry nodded. "Roy is my best friend Riza's brother, as well as our neighbor." Winry said.

"But wait, how were you on the bus before us if you live next door?" I asked Roy.

"I slept over at my best friends place. He just sat next to his girlfriend." Roy said.

I gave an 'ah' in reply.

"What did you need, Hun?"

I turned my attention to the woman at the desk. She had a slightly southern accent. I gave her a confused look.

"Me?" I asked meekly, pointing towards myself. With a person I didn't know I was so shy, it was something I had never over come, and with Moms death it only got worse.

"Yes, sweetheart. Come over here and tell me what you need." She said, beckoning me towards her with a finger.

I shyly walked towards the desk, standing in between Al and Winry. It made me feel more comfortable.

"I need to get my schedule set up." I said. My voice was just as soft. I hoped she could hear me.

I could feel Roy's eyes on me from behind. As If he was observing my every move. It made me feel nervous and yet safe at the same time. I couldn't explain it.

"Could you repeat that, sweetie?" The woman asked.

"I need to get my schedule set up." I said, slightly louder.

"Okay, well let me get Alphonse schedule done and then we can take a look at getting yours set up." She said. "Just have a seat over there for a second, and I'll get to you in just a jiff." She said, gesturing over to the chairs.

I nodded and took a seat, Roy sat next to me. I let my hair cover my face. I just felt so shy right now. Sure I knew most of the people in this room, but I didn't know anyone else in this whole school. And that just made me feel so…well, shy. I wished Mom was here, to pet my hair and just tell me that everything would be alright.

"Hey, you alright?" I heard Roy's deep voice, breaking me from my thoughts.

"Hm?" I asked, turning to face him.

"I asked if you were alright." Roy repeated. His face was etched with concern,

"I'm fine." I lied.

He kept his gaze on me, as if not believing me. I sighed.

"If you say so." Roy said, turning his attention to the clock.

I looked, it read seven forty - five. Suddenly, a loud 'beep' rang through the air. I jumped in surprise. Roy laughed loudly and I glared at him.

"What's so funny, smug mug?" I asked, regaining composure. Smug mug seemed to be my nickname for him.

"Well Shrimp, a simple bell made you half way fall out of your seat." Roy said.

"Whatever." I said quietly.

"Hey Roy you should get to class." Winry said.

I saw Roy shake his head. "Nah, I'm going to show Jumpy here to his classes, since we both are Juniors." Roy said.

Winry nodded.

"Okay Alphonse you are done." The receptionist said. "Now I can get your schedule set up." The woman said, pointing towards me.

I nodded and walked up to the desk .

"See you at Lunch, brother." Al said as he and Winry walked out the door.

I smiled. "See ya." I said.

"You're name please." She said.

"Edward Elric." I said.

"Okay, and you're papers from your old school say that you are a junior, am I correct?" She asked.

I nodded.

"And you are in the AP classes, right?" She asked again.

"Yes Ma'am." I said.

These sorts of questions went on for a good half hour. Roy sat quietly in his chair. Just listening to me and the woman, who I now knew as Mrs. Stephens. She helped me with all the paperwork. Which was really annoying.

"And you are done, Mr. Elric." Mrs. Stephens said. Shuffling the paperwork in a nice stack.

"Ok." I said picking up my schedule.

"I will see you later." She said.

I nodded and picked up my backpack, Roy stood up from his seat.

"Excuse me, Mrs. Stephens, but may I please have a pass to my class?" Roy asked.

"Why certainly Mr. Mustang." She said and wrote out his pass.

I patiently waited by the door, slightly fidgeting with my backpack strap. After a moment, Roy walked over.

"Okay, let's get going." He said.

I nodded and we walked out into the hallway. We silently walked down the hall for a minute. Before Roy turned to me.

"Okay, so what is your first class?" Roy asked..

"Umm, chemistry." I said.

Roy smiled. "Okay, well lets get going." He said.

And off we walked down the long hallway. I just silently fallowed him, while Roy talked about something, the chemistry teacher I think. I'm sure, I wasn't listening. I was just taking this school all in, I probably looked like a little kid, turning my head at every little thing. This school was so different from my old one. It would take some getting use to. I sighed as I fallowed Roy into the chemistry room.

This was going to be a long day, I could already tell.

A/N: The end was crappy, I got some writers block towards then. Hahaha. Well I see it as the whole chapter was really crappy.

Anyhow Review and chapter three will come~~~
