If he called me down here just to make another dog joke, I'm going to punch him in the face. Sakura thought, as she made her way towards Mustang's office. This was not the first time Mustang had called Sakura to his office without warning. Usually it was about some new assignment or some paperwork the general wanted her to fill out. Sakura had to admit that she didn't mind visiting Mustang all that much. Mustang and Sakura had become closer over the months and now were mutual friends. But recently Mustang had been calling Sakura to his office for no apparent reason. Something about the general seemed a little strange lately. Sakura couldn't put her finger on it, but something was going on.
"I wish I knew why the general was acting so…. Different" Sakura mumbled under her breath as she neared Roy's office.
The more she tried to shake the feeling of worry, the more it persisted. She hated admitting to herself that she was actually worried about general Mustang. She reached for the doorknob and entered.
General Roy Mustang was sitting at his desk, which was covered with mass amounts of unfinished paperwork, as usual. The general's dark eyes looked up and met Sakura's for a split second. Sakura felt an unfamiliar shiver run up his spine and broke the gaze.
"You wanted to see me, general" Sakura said, trying to ignore the fact that her heart was pounding.
"Ah, yes, elemental. Just as I suspected; you can without question to your master."
Just as Sakura had though, Mustang had cracked another dog joke. Sakura's temper got the better of her, as she didn't get much sleep which made her short tempered. In one fluid motion, Sakura went on top of Mustangs desk and pinned him up against the wall, knocking over several piles of paperwork.
"Did you call me all the way down here just to make another dog joke!" Sakura exclaimed, tightening her grip on Mustang's jacket and unintentionally moving their bodies closer to the wall. "What is going on with you lately? You are always calling me down here for no reason, and….." Sakura's voice trailed off as her eyes met the general's. Her heart began to pound faster, as she looked deep into the general's onyx eyes. Sakura's face flushed red as she noticed that she was uncomfortably, more like comfortably, close to the general. She actually liked being close to Mustang.
Mustang moved his lips right up to her ear. Sakura could feel Mustang's warm breath on her neck.
"I didn't call you down here to make jokes," Mustang whispered "I just … I had to see you." Sakura could hear the venerability in Roy's voice, which was strange. There were many things Sakura knew Roy to be, but venerable was not one of them. Mustang moved his head back.
"General…" Sakura tried to say something. She was feeling so much. She wasn't sure how to say how she was feeling. In fact she wasn't sure what she was feeling. Yet, she refused to let go of Mustang's jacket and kept the generals body pinned between her and the wall.
"Please, call me Roy." Mustang said plainly
Something came over Sakura; she leaned forward and gently pressed her lips against Mustangs, and to her surprise, Mustang kissed back. She pulled her lips away in shock and eased her grip. Roy saw the opportunity to take control and seized it. He quickly changed their positions, pinning Sakura up against the wall, hard, and pulled their bodies even closer together.
Sakura looked back at Mustang with confusion. Is this really happening? Sakura thought to herself. She hadn't planed on kissing Mustang, but it just happened, and she defiantly didn't expect the general to kiss back. There was so much going on and she didn't know what to say or do. She looked into Roy's eyes again, searching for an answer to all the questions that were buzzing in her head. The deeper Sakura looked into Roy's eyes, the more she realized that she was very attracted to Mustang. This, of course, made Sakura more confused. Mustang could see the confusion on Sakura's face, so he started to ease back a bit, loosening his grip and bringing space between them.
"No don't… I liked you close" Sakura said, grabbing his arm, her bangs covering her eyes.
A smile crept over the general's face.
"I liked me being close too….." he paused for a moment. "Are you sure you're ok with this?" he questioned. Mustang cared far too much for Sakura that he didn't want to make her do anything that she didn't feel comfortable with.
"Ye… yes" Sakura stammered.
Mustang couldn't help but smile. He brought their bodies close together again and raised one hand to brush Sakura's icy-blue bangs off of her blushing cheek. Roy leaned in, Sakura braced herself, and their lips met again. Sakura could feel Roy's body press closer. She could feel her heart beating faster and faster as the kiss continued. She opened her mouth slightly to try and get some air. Mustang felt this and slid his tongue into Sakura's mouth. Sakura wrapped her arms around Mustang's shoulders and pulled him closer to her. They kissed passionately, each exploring the others mouth with their tongue. They kissed each other deeper and moved closer together.
Mustang attempted to step back and removed his coat but slipped on the papers on the floor and landed hard on the ground. Sakura looked down at the general, his jacket half of lying on the floor. She laughed quietly. She undid her over shirt a little and then straddled Mustang. Mustang naturally flipped over, so that he was on top; he liked being in control. Mustang proceeded to take of his jacket. Then he began kissing Sakura's lips, then along her jaw, and then nibbled her ear lobe. Sakura let out a small moan of shear pleasure as Roy continued to move lower, kissing her neck. In that moment, Sakura realized where they were. Mustang was half naked on the floor of his office in the middle of the day. Anyone could walk in and see everything. She knew she never wanted this to end, but if they were discovered….
"Wait" Sakura whispered.
Roy stared at Sakura with surprise.
"I'm sorry. Did I go too far? …." Mustang asked, then trailing off as he moved his eyes to stare at the floor of the office.
"No, it's not that," Sakura quickly replied, "It's just… what if someone walks in on us or something… I mean we are in your office in the middle of the day."
"Oh" Roy said with relief, "That's a good point… I almost forgot that we are in my office." Roy slid back and leaned against the wall. Sakura laid on the floor in the mess of unfinished paperwork. Mustang closed his eyes in an attempt to think.
" I…. I could come to your place tonight." Sakura said out of nowhere. "I mean, if that's ok with you."
"It sounds like a plan to me, elemental" said the general as a devilish half smile lit up his face. "I'll give you the address and a key just in case you get there before me. I should be out of here by about 5. You can come over whenever you want."
Both alchemists stood up and Roy dressed himself. Sakura started to pick up the paperwork on the floor and placed it on the general's desk. The general sat down in his office chair, scribbled down an address and pulled a key out of his pocket. He handed this to Sakura. Sakura then turned to leave walk around Roy's desk.
"One more thing elemental," the general said. Sakura quickly turned around and stood next to Roy, looking deep into his eyes. Roy grabbed Sakura's shirt collar, pulling her face close and bringing their lips together again. It was a short, but passionate kiss. Sakura's heart began to race again as she smiled and turned to leave the office again.
"See you tonight…. Roy" Sakura said in a small voice as she left.
"I'll be counting the seconds" Roy responded as the office door closed.
Authors note: Sakura is wearing a blue plaid long sleeve shirt that buttons up and short light blue shorts that don't go further than half way down her thy. She has the sleeves rolled up just past her elbow. Roy is wearing his military uniform (duh!). This takes place sometime in the summer.
