Chapter 2- "Oops...I Looked!"

Edward woke up and decided to go the bathroom. Winry was going to the same place as she bumped into Edward.

"Morning." Edward yawned.

"Good morning, Ed." Winry replied. "How did you sleep?"

"Good." Edward replied. "So, are you heading to the bathroom too?"

"Yes." Winry replied.

"So am I." Edward smiled. "Have you seen Al?"

"He went with grandma into town. They'll be back in a few hours." Winry replied.

Edward looked around. "Ok, you can go first, Winry."

"Ok, Ed." Winry replied. "I'll be a few minutes."

Winry shut the bathroom door as Edward decided to try another plan. He stood by the railing of the stairs and waited. Winry was taking longer than usual. Edward continued waiting until he heard noises from the bathroom. They were faint but he could still hear.

"What's going on in there?" Edward thought.

While Winry was busy, Edward decided to go into her room and pick up the diary. Edward examined the diary for locks. He saw golden lock with a keyhole. Edward realized he couldn't break the lock with Alchemy. If he did that, Winry would know for sure he broke in.

He would have to find the key. It was the only way.

Edward began looking around for a key. He found it in the drawer of the night stand. He grinned. He was so close to victory. He put the key in the lock and with a click, the diary was now open for Edward's eyes.

Edward sat on Winry's bed and began reading the first entry. It was about a day she had in Resenbool. The entry had Edward in it but not until the end. Winry was worried about Edward and wondered how he was doing.

It wasn't what Edward wanted. So he continued flipping the pages. Edward stopped stiff at the next few entries. Winry's feelings were completely different. She was so loving. She had feelings for Edward.

Edward saw the next few entries and saw that Winry also had strong sexual feelings.

"She wants me to fuck her?" Edward thought. "That isn't ladylike, Winry."

Edward blushed deeply. He liked reading these entries a lot. Winry kept her feelings so secret. Edward was relieved that there was no other man involved. He really liked seeing Winry's thoughts and how she felt.

The door on the bathroom began jiggling. Edward quickly closed the diary and locked it. He made sure everything was the right way. He got out of Winry's room as fast as he could and stood back where he was standing.

Winry came out with a towel on. "Sorry, Ed. I decided to take a bath."

"It's ok." Edward replied softly. "Don't worry about it."

"Ed, are you ok?" Winry looked at Edward. "You seem out of it."

"Huh? No. I'm good." Edward replied.

"Ok." Winry smiled.

She walked into her room and closed the door. Edward felt a rush of adrenaline. He had to know more.

Winry came back out of her room. "Ed, did you touch my diary while I was gone?"

Edward shook his head. "No."

"Ok. Just making sure. The key is missing." Winry replied.

"Oh, maybe you misplaced it." Edward replied.

"You know, I think you're right." Winry replied. "I was so tired last night, I probably put in the wrong place."

"Yeah but like you said, it's not for my eyes." Edward sighed.

"That's right. Stay out of it, Ed." Winry playfully wagged her finger.

Edward laughed as he got closer to Winry. He took up a piece of her hair and examined it.

"You have such nice hair." Edward replied. "It's really grown."

"Thanks, Ed." Winry blushed a little.

Winry slowly departed from Edward and went back to her room. Edward went into the bathroom and shut the door. He smiled a little devilishly. He knew things and Winry didn't know he knew about what she wrote.

At the same time. He needed time to process what he saw. There were so many strong emotions. Edward didn't realize how much Winry missed him when he left. He didn't realize she wanted to get closer and have a relationship.

They were friends since childhood. They were like brother and sister. It was different now with what Edward found out. Winry truly loved him.

Edward thought it would be best he not say anything and just play along. He laughed about it. He knew if Winry found, it would be his ass and a lot more. So he decided to not say a word.

Not even to Alphonse. Knowing how righteous Alphonse could be, Alphonse would tell Winry what happened and that Edward was plotting to look. It would be a huge mess.

Edward finished getting ready and headed out of the bathroom. Alphonse's metallic body came up the stairs as he saw Edward going into the room.

"Hey, Ed!" Alphonse said cheerfully. "Granny Pianko and I bought a lot of things at the farmers market!"

"Oh, that's good..." Edward replied.

"Brother, are you ok? You seem different." Alphonse replied.

"No. I'm good. Just bored." Edward replied as he began snickering.

"What's so funny?" Alphonse replied.

"Nothing, Al." Edward stopped snickering. "Just something funny I was thinking about."

"Ok, I hope you've left Winry's diary alone." Alphonse replied.

Alphonse decided to go outside and watch the countryside. Edward laid down and began laughing to himself. He couldn't believe he succeeded. He would try getting his hands on it in a few days.
