First chapter to my new story, Something Left To Live For! Woot woot! :D

Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist. If I did Maes Hughes never would've died, get it?

Enjoy! xD

"There's a girl staying there too."

"Jenna," Shou Tucker's voice interrupted my studies, "We have guests."

After he left, I put down my book, found Nina, and walked out outside to greet the newcomers.

"This is my daughter Nina, and our friend who's also staying with us, Jenna. She's the same age as you too," said Tucker. He apparently had introduced himself before we came out.

"It's nice to meet you!" said a boy in a suit of armor. I shook his hand hesitantly because he sounded…. Hollow.

"Hey look Al, she's shorter than I am!" the other boy jested, "I'm Edward Elric and this is my brother Alphonse."

"Jenna Wilkes," I introduced myself.

"Why don't you lead them to the library, Jenna?" said Shou, "Those boys have a lot of studying to do if they are going to pass the State Alchemy Exam."

I nodded, "C'mon, follow me."

We made way to the massive library quickly.

"So you're going to try a become a State Alchemist?" I asked.

"That's right!" Edward smiled, "And you?"

"Yup, me too," I grinned.

That was the last thing we said to each other for awhile as I slouched down into the arm chair I was in before the Elric brothers arrived.

"Brother, it's not polite to stare," said Al when he noticed Edward was not focusing on the book he picked out, but on me. I smirked to myself when I overheard them.

"Shut up, Al!" Ed yelled.

Before any of us could say anything, Nina bounded into the room.

"Jennaaaa!" she called.

I smiled easily, "Yes, Nina?"

"You pwomised you'd pway with me!"

"Of course! Let's go!" I put my book and down and stood up, "Why don't you come too," I said to the Elric brothers.

"Um, ok," said Edward looking at his brother.

"Yay! The Elwick bwothers are coming too!" Nina said happily.

We brought Alexander with us to the front yard. It was amusing to watch how the huge Saint Bernard tackled Edward - that is, until he leaped on me…

"Aggh! Alexander get off me!" I exclaimed attempting to push the huge dog off of me. Attempting. Not succeeding.

Edward, Nina, and Al all laughed when Alexander licked my face.

"Get him off me," I whined helplessly.

Ed walked up and managed to get the dog off of me and smiled and said, "Now how do you expect to pass the State Alchemy Exam if you can't get a dog off of you?"

I smirked and said, "I have a few tricks up my sleeve."

He extended a hand to help me up, which I gladly took. I looked up into his eyes, but the pair that met my boring brown were a piercing gold. So piercing it made my breath catch in my throat. How could I not notice his eyes before?

I smiled, got up and brushed the dog hair off of my white shirt. I saw that the sun was starting to set.

"Nina, it's time to go in now," I said to the little girl.

"Awwww!" she said, taking my hand to lead her in.

Inside Shou Tucker said, "Ah, just in time! Dinner's ready."

We sat down at the table and began eating the tasty food - chicken, mashed potatoes, and string beans.

"This looks delicious Mr. Tucker!" said Al - compliments to the chef even though he wouldn't be eating (that's right I think I got him figured out).

"How can you drink that stuff?" Edward looked at me downing my drink.

"What? Milk?" I laughed, "Why don't you drink yours? You might get taller!"

"DON'T CALL ME SHORT, YOU JERK!" he shouted, but then calmed himself down quickly, "Your shorter than me anyway, so drink up…"

We ate the rest of our dinner and went to sleep afterward because we had to get up early the next morning and I planned on studying all day to make up for the lack of time in the library today…

"Edward, your room is the first room on the right and yours is just next door, Alphonse."

I was already changing in my room when suddenly Edward burst in already taking his shirt off to change.

"AHHHH! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" I screamed.

"THIS IS MY ROOM!" he yelled.

"GET OUT!" I pushed him back out the door and finished changing into I guess what you would call I night gown. It was actually and extra large T-shirt that goes halfway down my thigh. I wear it to sleep like a night gown though!

"Alright," I sighed, "You can come in now."

I opened door to see Shou Tucker standing outside with Ed.

"Oh Jenna, did I forget to mention you'll be bunking with Edward?"

"You could've mentioned it," I sweat-dropped anime style.

"Why can't he stay with Al?"

"Well I was just thinking that Al is a lot bigger than Ed so I just thought-"

"DON'T CALL ME A PIPSQUEAK MIDGET!" Ed yelled with a tick mark on his forehead.

"He didn't say that Ed!" I silenced him then said to Tucker, "Alright it's fine."

He left and Edward entered my room, "There's… only one bed," he said slowly.

I nodded, "Well… it's pretty big… You can have one side and I'll have the other…" I said just as slowly

"Ok…"

Awkward….

That night I slept in my oversized tee on the left and he was in his boxers on the right… I was just about hugging the side of my bed. I was still awake and I was pretty sure he was too.

"Hey Ed?" I said.

"You're still awake?" he replied.

"Yep. Hey can I ask you something?" I asked rolling over to face him. I saw his automail arm and leg.

"Sure, what is it?" he said rolling over also.

"Your brother… There's no body in that suit of armor is there?"

He looked shocked, "How could you tell?"

"So I was right!" I said, ruining the serious moment, "Well I could tell by his voice.. And when he didn't eat… Oh and his movements too!"

"Are you scared?"

"Not at all," I smiled.

After that we fell asleep peacefully, on our sides but not hugging the corners. That morning I woke up only to realize I was laying on top of his chest only for us to start screaming at each other again.

"RAPE!" I screamed.
