A/N: Here is the second chapter! I got it up!! I am so organized right now. I finished Love and Death aren't Far Apart, and I am going to try to finish this. I hope you liked the Prologue; I will have this chapter and then one more. Enjoy!

RIZA POV

I didn't know why I was here, hell I didn't know why he was here. I had ventured through the snow to the outpost to try and get him to come back to Central. Knocking on the door, I shivered. It was so cold and the wind was brutal. The handle turned slowly and the door opened. I was shocked. It had been so long since I had last seen him. His hair was a messy and unkempt; his face was drawn and tired looking, and when he spoke his lips barely moved.

"Riza? What are you doing here?" his voice a monotonous tone. I shivered again, and he noticed this and moved to let me in. I glanced around the small room, and it seemed very gloomy. We stood there awkwardly, each waiting for the other to say something. Finally I decided to break the silence,

"Sir, I-" he cut me off with a wave of his hand.

"None of that sir stuff, I am no longer your commanding officer Colonel Hawkeye." He said, moving to salute me.

"What the hell do you mean 'no longer your commanding officer' General sir." I glared at him but he avoided my gaze. I watched as he moved to the small couch.

"I thought you knew, I'm an enlisted man now. Not a General." he whispered. Ice shot through my veins, I didn't know that.

ROY POV

Why was she here? I had dreamt of this, but didn't think it would actually happen. She walked over to me and sat down.

"Roy why are you doing this?" she whispered, laying her hand on mine. I turned my head, speaking softly.

"I, I just couldn't bear it any longer. Everywhere I looked, I saw the faces of the innocent people. That's all this eye sees." I said, pointing at my covered eye. "By doing this, I have prevented so many people from being harmed, because of me and my mistakes."

"That's not true! You're doing no one a favor. You're being stupid and selfish. Everyday the others back in Central and I miss you. Wonder what you're doing. And as for hurting someone, did you not think that someone would miss you. Mainly, me…"she stopped, embarrassed. I didn't care, she didn't understand. I knew that it was better this way,

"You don't understa-"

"Understand?!" she let out a bitter laugh. "Do you understand? Understanding is not exiling yourself because you're too ashamed to face your mistakes. Understanding is trying to make it right! Frankly I find the latter stupid if I may say so sir" she said, emphasizing the sir.

I was getting angry, she had no idea.

"You're not the only one who has regrets. I've had to kill too, but I've dealt with it by knowing that it was for the greater good."

"The greater good! Whose, yours or the military's?" I shouted, glaring at her.

"Both. Protecting you and doing my duty as a lieutenant." She said curtly.

"But the 'greater good' applies to the military! What did I gain by killing so many people?" I questioned.

"Respect and you continued to reach our goal. And now all that is being wasted. You said to shoot you if you ever strayed from the path and right now you're really close." She warned.

"So shoot me!" I cried.

"You know I can't do that. Besides," her voice got softer. "We need you back in Central, and not just me. Havoc, Breda, Falman, Fuery and the others. You're almost there, don't throw it all away." She whispered. I contemplated what she said. No, it was too dangerous. I looked out the window. It was very dark.

"Um, Do you, uh mind if I stay here tonight?" Riza asked timidly, blushing. I got up and started to walk over the bedroom. Pausing I looked at her,

"Are you coming? It would probably be best if we slept together. To someone that isn't used to it, it can get really cold." I said, motioning for her to follow me. She stopped eyes wide and a blush coloring her cheeks. "Oh, well. I guess if you're uh, uncomfortable then-"

"No, that's uh okay. Sorry…" she said, quietly then moved into the bedroom. I still wasn't sure, but she would be glad in the morning that she didn't die of frostbite.

Ha ha, way to find an excuse to sleep together Roy... Anyways, Review!
