So when you tell me I misplaced a comma, I laugh more than care. Anyways please enjoy and review. I hope to hear back from you, and if i can clear my damn hangover i might just get a third chapter up today :)

Die Autoren stellen fest

Nun hier ist es Kapitel zwei ist, ging eine Menge Blut in diese. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich es, gestanzt meine Tastatur letzte Nacht, und riß einen Knöchel. BTW 97% der Menschen vor Ort kippe fortgeschrittenen Grammatikfehler. Also, wenn Sie mir sagen, ich falsch ein Komma, ich lache mehr als Pflege. Sowieso bitte genießen und zu überprüfen. Ich hoffe, wieder von Dir hören, und wenn ich meinen verdammten Kater i klar sein einfach nur ein dritte Kapitel bis heute:)

Ed left her room allowing her to ready herself for the day. Winry was the kinda of girl who spent an eternity every on her hair, so knowing that he had plenty of time to spare, he walked down to his room. It felt weird he hadn't stepped in here for at least three days. By the way that everything reflected sunlight Ed could tell that it was in need of a good dusting, but that wasn't his job that was hers. When he came back and bought half the house from her they agreed that inside work was hers and outside was his. Though when it came to cooking meals they would switch off, ed enjoyed cooking but that was his little secret, but after last night she knew that.

The room was cold, it felt as if it had no soul to it, which was strange, for Ed had spent most of his life sleeping in this room, and yet it still felt foreign. The pictures on his dresser brought back painful memories of his mother and father. He looked away. Rising he took a deep breath before closing the door behind him.

Stepping over the threshold of Al's study he found the younger brother frantic writing. "Its a letter to Erwin I'm telling him that we will be sending money for a ticket to him", Al's voice was filled with excitement. "Don't bother", Ed said sharply. Why, the words stung Al, had his brother changed his mind or just lied to him? "I don't know about you but I'm in need of a vacation... , badly." Al didn't know what Ed was saying. "How bout we all take a trip to the East and visit the Mystery man, hmm." "Really!" Al was glowing. "Really brother you wanna go", Ed nodded his approval. Al jumped on his elder, which was about the third time In two days he had, no wonder Ed's back hurt. "O thank you brother, I don't know how I can ever repay you."

" Well you can start by putting me down", for Al was lifting his elder off the floor about six inches. "Sorry Ed." "And then you can cheer up a little, put a smile on , live a little." "You don't know how much it hurts me to see you suffer." Words that Al wasn't ready to hear. He in no way ever wanted to be a burden to his brother. He had tried so hard his whole life not to drag him down. "Listen you finish writing that letter and I'll talk to you in a bit OK?" Ed left the room closing the door behind him, he wasn't completely sure that this was the right decision.

Feeling dinner from last night fighting back, he spun on his heel and darted for the bathroom.

Shaking his head in wonder as to why he ate so much last night, he re-buttoned his pants. Ed stood at the sink washing his hands. Gazing up he caught his reflection in the mirror, Time had not been good to him For someone who was barley Twenty-two, he could of passed for Forty. His face was lined by various scars, which he hid behind the thin beard he was growing. His hair had lost its luster, now it was more pale, than golden. He had cut it off last year and now kept it short, for it was easier to clean and he just thought he looked more dashing, as when it was long he looked like a homeless drifter. But then again Ed once was a homeless drifter, Hmm, maybe he had cut it just to forget those days of travel. He wet his hands and ran them through his hair, slicking it back. Ed had never been able to make that one piece lay down, he smiled as he thought of it, all throughout his childhood he had it, and it was something that his mother used to think was super cute.

Being a hero isn't what people think, it had only been three years, but people had already forgotten he had even existed. People are so quick to try to return to normal that they block it all out, not that he cared about his name in lights, but it was the only real damn thing he had ever done with his life and for everyone just to forget him, well it left a empty spot. Checking his pocket watch he had gotten last Christmas, since his military issue one had stopped working, he saw that it was a little after one-thirty. Winry should be close to done by know, he figured he should probably go tell her about his plan for Al.

Ed practically skipped down to her room. "Hey Win I wanna talk about something", said Edward in a tone of happiness, which is something she hadn't heard in a few days. "Is it about Al?" "Cause if so I already know he told me", She said smiling. Ed was surprised but welcomed the relief that he felt not having to tell tell the whole scene to her. "Ed listen", he looked at her. "Al is going by himself, I cant go cause of my work and I want you to stay with me, I deserve that after all the years you left me."

Ed was slightly taken aback, but now that he thought about it, he had ignored her a lot even when he and his brother were around. Looking back at her he saw a small grin spread on her face. "what", he asked smiling back. "Erwin is a girl you dolt, you honestly thought your brother was gay?" The look on Ed's face was priceless. "Whoa,whoa,whoa, first, that's a guy's name and when I mentioned that I thought it was a guy he never said anything."

Ed looked somewhere between embarrassed and confused. Smacking her forehead Winry explained to him. "He must of not heard you, and that's her middle name, its passed down throughout the family, and she was afraid we wouldn't accept her cause she is from Xing ."

Winry had a look of disbelief on her face at his stupidity. Ed felt the urge to yell, but maintained himself. "Well then tell Al I'm truly sorry", he said knowing he would hear more from her about this later. "Well he doesn't know you thought that, I was the one who figured out what you were thinking." Realizing he was off the hook Ed smiled. "well I'm gonna give Al the money for tickets and I'll stay here with you", he leaned forward and kissed her, it was like a morphine rush. "Well, smiled Winry you seem frisky today." He smiled. "Ha well once hes out on his little trip I'll show you the real meaning of frisky." She turned red in the cheeks. Ed had a feeling that this was going to be a interesting week.

The day moved on slowly. It had been decided that Al was going to leave tomorrow afternoon. Ed spent most of the day helping him pack, something he hated even doing for himself much less his brother.

"Al", ed looked over at his sibling. "Hmm", Al's eyes glanced in his direction. "I just wanted to know why this girl has almost put you in a early grave, whats going on?" Ed looked Worried for his brother, Al picked up on the bad vibes in the air. "Well I think I love her", the words came slow as if they hurt.

" But I don't know if I'm right for her, or how too tell her brother, how did you explain it Winry?" Ed blushed at the question. "Well honesty bro I told her my feelings that day at the train station but I kinda just ended up in her bed one night and well, yea." Al looked discomforted. "You mean that you two um..." Ed smiled proudly, "Yes we did, so what?"

"Was I here?" Al leaned forward on his chair awaiting the answer. "Um no you were at the bar with Mustang , I think, Not sure were, but you weren't here." Ed was lying through his teeth, but it was for his brothers best, he had been through enough trauma in his short life. "anyways Al what I'm getting at is don't ask me for tips ask Win, alright." He was smiling, not at how lame his love story was but at how he weaseled out of this conversation.
