Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist or any of its characters.

It had been 1 month since Riza filed for her transfer, the paper work taking far too long to make it through the system as usual, the military have never been very quick on confirming transfers. She hadn't seen the General for almost 3 and a half weeks due to she left for Brigg's almost immediately after the Ball. Riza knew that things wouldn't be the same when she arrives at Brigg's there would be ice, snow, blizzards, soldiers she has never worked with before and most of all the fought that has grown men cower and run away.

One thing Riza would never admit to was that during the time waiting for her transfer to be field and approved from the higher ups that caused her to miss a certain female General more, the night at the Armstrong mansion left a huge mark on Riza, knowing that she had melted down if not part of Olivier's icy walls.

-Flash back-

She could feel warmth, slow deep breaths, her body pulled flush against another, strong arms wrapped around her stomach and a large pair of breasts pushing into her back, long blonde hair covering part of Olivier's face as she turned her head to only find blue eyes looking back at her.

"Been awake long" her voice was low and surprisingly playful, her lips pulled into a small smirk.

"Not really" Riza's eyes still filled with sleep as she rolled over to fully face the other woman. Her hair being set a glow by the light reflecting on her blonde hair.

"My maid's are very punctual and should be here within 20 minutes, why don't you go take a shower and get dressed and I'll meet you down in the dining room, unless you don't mind getting noticed by the maid's and Mustang probably finding out" her tone playful with the last part of the words she spoke, her lips brushing against Riza's soft lips. Riza only acknowledged with a warm smile and began to gather her things and getting redressed so she could go back to her room.

It was at that moment when Riza left to open the door where she looked back to find the Ice Queen smile even though it was only small but still enough to make Riza's heart skip.

-Flash back over-

"Hawkeye!" came a voice from the desk at the front of the office, it was the voice of the one and only Roy Mustang.

"Yes Sir?" her eyes drifting up from the file in front of her and looking at the man behind his desk.

"Your transfer has been approved for Brigg's, you leave in 3 days" his facial expression blank and his voice flat then he spoke up again " It will be a shame for you to be leaving us Hawkeye, I hope the General doesn't run you ragged too much" his lips pulling into his signature smug smirk.

"What is he talking about, he can't know about what happened at the Mansion can he" Riza thought to herself before replying," I'll be fine Sir, I'm sure the General is affective when giving out her orders" Riza's eyes didn't break contact with Mustangs.

"If you will excuse me Sir I have some reports to finish filing before I leave for Brigg's" she rose from her desk slowly and walked out of her office with her files.

"What's taking this damn transfer so long!" Olivier snarled as she brought a fist down onto her desk, "I haven't even had word from Central to whether it has been approved or not, for fuck's sake why are men so hopeless at giving confirmation to a simple task ".

A quiet knock came from her closed office door as if the person on the other side was too scared to enter, "WHAT!" her voice loud and beyond the point of cooling down. "Ma'am we have news from Central, Lieutenant Hawkeye will be arriving in 3 day's ".

Her temper soon lowered but her tone of voice still irritated at how long confirmation had taken and her gaze if it could, would kill. The voice behind the door soon spoke up again "Colonel Mustang is on the line and would like to speak with you ma'am".

She burst through her office door and the man standing by had a taste of wood as the door slammed into his face as she headed for the communication room, her men moving out of the way as she stormed down the halls. She made it to the phone with Mustang on the line she was far from being in the mood to talk to the man, though theere is never a time where she wants to talk to him any way.

"What do you want Mustang" she tried to gain some composure while she spoke.

"Ah General, I see you finally convinced Hawkeye to take the transfer to work with you at Brigg's" his voice almost challenging but you could still hear the smile in his tone.

"It was her decision, she wants the experience to become the soldier she is capable of, the soldier you and I know she is capable of being and working with you behind a desk is far from the experience a soldier such as her deserves" Olivier was far than amused at Mustangs antics.

Mustang laughed "Are you sure there isn't any OTHER experiences you are wanting to give her" it wasn't so much as a question but more of a statement, you could hear the smirk in his voice and it made Olivier wish she could strangle him over the phone or better yet stab him with her sword. "I'm just joking General, the Lieutenant will be arriving in 3 days at 0900" he then hung up not giving Olivier a chance to reply.

The phone shattered in Olivier's grip "What the fuck does he know; he can't possibly know what happened at the Mansion, he was beyond drunk and several rooms away" she thought to herself as she stormed out of the room and slammed the door to her office that had a splotch of blood on it from where the soldiers nose had met the door in a painful embrace.

The 3 days went past faster than any one could catch it; Riza was on a train heading for the North and Olivier was working non-stop on reports, if it was one part of her job Olivier hated it was filing and writing reports.

Riza arrived at the station and had to make her own way to the Fort, the snow was deep and the air cold, as she reached the fort it towered over everything near it and would make any man uneasy at its monumental site. She reached the doors and was escorted by a large man, his voice far from fitting for his sheer size "Come with me", Riza followed with her bags in tow.

"Stay here and wait for the General" the command made Riza feel like a dog but she brushed it off.

The wait was long and Riza was getting tired of it, if anything it was making her more nervous about seeing the General for the first time in almost a month. A another man approach Riza his face was covered in what looked like grease and he smelt like gun powder "The Major General will see you now" he lead her into Olivier's office but there was no one in it.

She sat and waited again only to hear the door behind her open then close and the sounds of well balanced steps walking from behind her. A familiar voice was heard "Riza" there was a pause "It's been a while hasn't it" Olivier's voice was low and almost seductive.

Riza's heart rate picked up at the sound of the familiar voice, her stomach clenched as memories began to flood to her mind.

Riza tried to compose herself but she struggled with all these emotions, her heart bounding, her thoughts running wild with the memories of Olivier's body tangled with hers made her mind a fog and her body stiffen.

Olivier proceeded to walk over to her desk and lent against it, crossing her legs and folding her arms in the process in one swift movement, with almost a gleam of mischief in her icy eyes. "So Lieutenant what do you think of my Fort" a smirk rising to the corners of Olivier's lips, before Riza could answer Olivier spoke out again, "You will not be sharing your bunk with any of the men, your room is your own and is located in the same wing as mine".

Riza could only muster up enough energy to nod, she didn't know what she should say to her commanding officer but I didn't help the fact that in a sense she was also her lover, after the Mansion Riza didn't know what they were to each other anymore.

Olivier began to slowly walk over to the seated Lieutenant, her steps light and well placed, her face was so close to Riza's that they were almost sharing air, she smirked and began to whisper into Riza's ear, her breath warm "Welcome to Brigg's Hawkeye" her voice seductive and husky, making Riza shiver.

"I..." Riza's words were cut off by a knocking at Olivier's office door.

Olivier's face went hard at the interruption and her voice suddenly cold "Enter"

"Ma'am there is a message from Central for you" he hesitantly passed Olivier the message in which she almost snatched it out of his hand.

"You're both dismissed" she said as she began to open up the message.

Riza not wanting to aggravate Olivier complied and followed the man out of her office "I'll send for Major Miles to show you your post once I have delt with this, Welcome to Brigg's Lieutenant".

It had been one week since Riza arrived and allot of the men had taken an interest in the younger stoic woman who had taken up a role as one of Brigg's snipers, why wouldn't they she was an attractive young woman, a good soldier who always obeyed orders , she trained as hard as the rest of them, as long as the rest of them and often as the rest of them if not more.

They were becoming far too interested for Riza's liking but she just brushed them off, they would ask many questions, make offers to train with her and even just eating their meals at the same table in the canteen. But Riza wanted nothing to do with it, it wasn't till the day where one of the men took a shining to her that she realized what Olivier was thinking, she had never seen fire in her eyes like that.

One of the younger men who was still quiet new to Brigg's took a step to far not knowing that the General herself could see what he was doing, always offering Riza tips though she didn't need them, always wanting to work with her in the weights room, always wanting to sit by her when they all ate, Olivier noticed this and it was making her blood boil.

Olivier didn't know why this bothered her so much she was ice she didn't love any one, she didn't have time for feelings and love yet this one soldier being close to Riza made her angry, no not angry it made her jealous and she knew it though she kept denying it to herself but she still didn't understand why.

It was the one day that Olivier decided to go to the training room where this Soldier and Riza were among other soldiers in the room. He kept touching Riza at every opportunity he could and Olivier had enough.

"Is there a problem here Lieutenant Hawkeye" Olivier's eyes resting hard on to the young man who seemed quiet cocky.

"No ma'am" Riza shifted uncomfortably knowing true well that Olivier would see right through it. "Don't worry General I'm looking out for Hawkeye here" he gave a big grin and placed his hand on Riza's shoulder.

"I see" Olivier fighting the urge to punch the young soldier out there and then, she looked at him with almost a dark and dangerous look in her eyes "How about I teach you a lesson or two in self defence". His face still containing the same cocky look but every other soldier in the room knew what was going to happen.

"Sure ma'am but I don't think you can teach me anything that I don't already know isn't that right Hawkeye?" he said as he placed his hand onto Riza's back, but that was the last straw for Olivier she had enough of it and she had enough of Riza letting it slide though you could see she hated it.

In one swift movement the young man had an arm twisted behind is back leaving a loud crunch that was heard halfway through the room, his head was slammed into the wall and in nose cracked with the impact, blood began to poor from his nose.

Olivier then spun him around and cracked his arms back around leaving him screaming in pain, she laid two punches into his ribs and one to the face leaving the young soldier unconscious and dropping to the floor. All the men in the weights room stared and shifted uneasily at the power of their commanding officer, they all took it as a warning on their attitudes and for those who didn't know any better a warning on knowing where there place is.

Riza stared in shock, she didn't expect Olivier to react to the young man the way she did, and she didn't expect any of it. Olivier walked out of the weights room leaving the men to clean up the mess and carry the soldier to the medical facility.

"Why the hell is this happening, why the fuck am I reacting like this" Olivier thought as she slammed the door to her room, kicking off her boots at the foot of the bed. "Why do I feel this way?" she thought out load as she took her coat off and placed it on the end of the bed.

"Maybe if I get some sleep I can think better in the morning" she thought as she undressed and crawling into her bed, sleep soon over took her.

-Olivier's dream-

Riza placed gentle kisses along Olivier's collar bone and made her way down her breasts, Olivier's hand roaming over Riza's toned fit body, her hands resting on Riza's hips, Amber eye's met with Blue and words were spoken that could never be heard, Olivier pulled Riza down onto her and wrapped her body around hers, their lips made contact Olivier trying to show Riza what she wanted to say with out saying it, she tried to find all the power that she could to keep from saying the words but they came out in a gasp as Riza's touch was like fire. "I love you...Riza".

-Dream over-

Olivier lunched forward her body covered in a cold sweat her lungs feeling like they had clamped shut and the realization of what she was feeling had struck.

"Shit!" she buried her face in her hands hoping that she could lock everything away but she couldn't, after what she did to the young soldier, what happened at the Mansion, how happy she actually was to see Riza though she couldn't admit it, it was driving her crazy. It must have all had to do with the dreaded 'L' word.

Ooooookaaaay so this chapter feels alittle bit boring to me specially after what the last chapter was like aha, but I didnt want to cram everything into this chapter specially when there is far more to come/happen, plus in the next chapter I plan to get Mustang more involved and obviously him and Olivier clashing heads like always. Any suggestions would be great, please review and thanks for reading.
