(recap)

Al walked over to the wall and leaned his ear on the wall. Ed, curious did the same. They could hear someone. A woman.

Ed: Winry?

He could tell, that she was crying.

Ed: Aw man…I really messed up this time. Damnit!

Al: What happened?

Ed(Sadly): Nothing. Just me being stupid. And Winry got mad at me.

Al: You should talk to her.

Ed: You seem to be very mature for your age. Even though you don't know squat about sex.

Al(Glaring) Well I do now!

Ed(Smiling): Yeah I guess.

Al: Serious Ed, I know I'm right about this. I know you like Winry…

Ed(Blushing) How…?

Al: I may not know about sex, but come on Ed. I'm not stupid! A squirrel could see that!

Ed: Oh. but I don't like her...I love her...

Al: Maybe now's the time to tell her.

Ed: You may be right Al. And I think I know just how to do it…

(Continuing)

Edward took off his jacket and laid it on the couch, showing his muscular arms, that no longer were half automail. They had been fully rejuvenated by the philosophers stone, just like his brother's body had been.

Al: Where are you going brother?

Ed:…I need to talk to Winry…

Ed proceeded to the door and closed it behind him, leaving Al, with a smile on his face.

Al:…Good luck…big brother.

Ed walked over to the room where Winry was staying and he knocked on the door. No answer. He knocked again, still no answer. Ed started to get a little worried

Ed: Winry? Are you in there?

No response. Edward was getting frustrated, he opened the door and looked inside. It was completely dark. He looked around to find the only source of light was the window, where the moonlight was shining in. which is also were Winry was. She sat there, looking out into the sky, admiring the nights beauty. Edward was practically gazing at her. She looked absolutely beautiful. Her skin, all her features, were being illuminated by the moonlit night she admired. But what he noticed the most, were the silent tears, rolling down her eyes. It practically broke his heart, knowing that he was the cause.

Ed(sadly):…Winry…

Winry was surprise by the sudden call of her name. She looked in the direction where it came from, and saw him standing in the doorway

Winry(whispering):…Edward…

Ed:…Why are you crying?

Winry quickly looked away and wiped her eyes

Winry: It doesn't matter…just go away

Ed: No... I won't.

Her eyes widened and she slowly turned back to him

Ed: Not after I just seen you like this. I've never seen you look so unhappy, and I know its because of me

Winry: Edward... Please I'm not in the mood for this

Ed: Please just hear me out...

Winry: *sigh* You've got one minute

Ed: I… just want to say that I'm sorry for how I've been acting. I haven't exactly been acting like the best of friends you've ever had huh?

Winry: Edward... You and Alphonse are the only friends I have.

Ed : What..?

Winry: You're the only two people outside my family who ever got so close to my heart. I got to see so many wondrous things and meet so many more new people and see new places every time I was with you. It meant a lot to me

She looked down at the ground. Even though her gaze was toward the floor, Edward could tell that tears started to form in her eyes

Winry: And that's why it hurts me so much when u just try to abandon me as if I didn't matter. I thought we were closer than that.

Edward walked up to her and held her hand in his

Ed: We are... or we can be..

Her eyes widened

Winry: This conversation has gone far enough. You came here to apologize and you did. You can leave now

Ed: Wait a second Winry I-

Winry: Just go Edward. I have to start packing for tomorrow so I can catch the next train, and you and your brother can leave without me once again

Ed: You don't have to do that Winry. If you would just hear me out-

Winry: I've heard plenty of what you have to say... Goodnight

She gazed at him for just a moment, to show that he had better leave or he would regret it. He hated the look in her eyes. Completely sad, and looked as if her very soul was just hollow.

Ed: Goodnight...

He opened the door and looked back at her. Her gaze laid plastered on the floor. He didn't want to leave her in such a state but she wasn't giving him a choice. With that he walked out and softly closed the door behind him.

Ed: Damnit! How did I mess things up so badly?

Unknown voice: Edward?

He turned around to the person calling his name and his eyes

Ed: Rose? What are you doing here?

Rose: Well as you must know, my country is in a war right now. And with my newborn baby, I didn't want to risk anything bad happening so I came to this hotel. I plan to stay here until I find a good place for us to live.

Edward smiled.

Ed: I'm glad to hear it Rose. You're finally doing what's best for you and your baby

Rose: Hey I got legs. I got up… and now I'm using them

He smiled a little more, but then it dropped to a frown

Rose: What's wrong?

Ed: Winry and I kinda had a fight

Rose: What happened? You still haven't told Winry you love her yet?

Rose said jokingly while laughing a looked down.

Edward: Well...

Rose immediately stopped laughing

Rose: Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't think that was actually the case. Come on Ed. Let's go talk. Maybe I can

Ed(smiling): Thank you

Rose: Sure thing. Show me to your room.

~in Edward's room~

Al: ROSE!

Rose looked dumbfounded

Rose: Um Ed... Whose the kid?

Ed: oh that's right. You haven't seen our new bodies. Rose, this is my younger brother. He got his body back

Rose: Alphonse!

Al instantly ran up to her and hugged her

Rose: So this is what u really look like? Such a handsome young man you

Al(blushing): awww thank you rose. It's so great to see you!

Rose: You as well then sat down on one of the beds and Edward came in and sat across from her on the other bed

Rose: So talk to me Edward. What's going on?

Edward walked over to the wall and pressed his ear against it. He heard running water in the next room. Winry was in the shower, so he knew that she wouldn't accidentally hear what he was going to

Ed: Rose, I've fallen so hard for Winry. It always used to be just a crush but now...I feel like I need her in my life. To care for her and protect. For her to say she was mine and I was hers. But I keep making such stupid mistakes and I keep pushing her away...now she thinks I don't care for her at all.

Rose: I'm sure that's not it Edward.

Edward: Then what is it? I mean whenever she comes out to see us, I give her every bit of my attention. But I can't help it if the military calls me in for a job. I don't want to leave her, but I have to.

Rose: But that's just it Ed. Don't you see? She's in pain. She's realizing now that you don't need her. Every time you leave she tries to come and help, even if its to bring a smile to you boys' faces. She can't even seem to do that without you turning your back on her.

Edward(looks down): You're right…I can't believe how cruel I've been acting toward her all these years.

Rose: She just feels neglected. If you really love her like you say, then you need to show her. Tell me honestly Edward, besides giving her a gift or just buying things for her, what else have you done to show you care for her?

Edward thought about it for a moment.

Ed:...Absolutely nothing...

Rose: That's your problem silly. Your love is materialist. And with girls, sure we wants gifts from you, it's shows how much you care and how far your willing to go, but really, all we want...is you.

Ed slumps down in his seat

Ed:...I'm such an idiot. Now I see why she thinks the ways she does.

Rose: There's still time Edward. You can fix this. You've been holding back all your emotions for years and I understand why. You've been through a lot of hell these past years. You, Alphonse and Winry. You've all been through so much. But unknown to you Ed, you've been causing pain to the ones who care for you most

His eyes widened.

Rose: Do you know what kind of hell Winry must've gone through because of the fact that you wouldn't open up to her even though you've know everything about her and been so close to her for so long?

Ed: I never even realized...I was causing her so much pain

Rose: She's in a emotional bind. She needs you now more than ever to tell her you care for her. Her heart is crying out to you, and you need to be able to hear it

Al: Rose...you're so wise...

Rose: No Alphonse...I just know what it feels like to lose something you love. And I don't want the same thing to happen to you Edward, or Winry

Ed: But how will she ever forgive me for the ways I've been treating her?

Rose: Because she loves you.

Edward: How can you tell?

Rose: A girl can always tell, it's the boys who have a hard time seeing it, even though they're the ones we're showing it to. But that's all boys for you.

Ed: Hey! What's that supposed to mean?

Rose: Calm down, you're just getting defensive because you know I'm right

Ed:...Damn...girls do know all about this

Rose(smiling): Told you

Ed: well if that's the case then I have so business to take care of. Thanks for the talk Rose, you really helped me out.

Ed then gets up off the bed

Al: Ed, where are you going?

Ed: There's a girl in this building that I love and she has no idea... And it's about time that she found out...

Edward then gets up and walks to the door and proceeds to walk out.
