Unnoticed: Hey everybody! Since, yesterday was a special occasion I decided to be super nice and update a lot earlier! Thanks a lot to those who read and 3 cyber cookies to the two people who can somehow keep up with my weirdness and reviewed. Thanks a lot!! chocolat-chan and KreeBlackFeather!! You made my week!

Mwaha!!! I just love that word! Again I'm so crazy and hyper! Maybe all the stress in my family is getting to me. :twitch:

Anyways, I present to you guys the third chapter of "Cheese Fondue"!

I don't own FMA because if I did I should know when is Ed's birthday. But I'm not entirely sure… So… No.

Italics mean the authoress is talking.

Warning: Slight OOCness. Lots of swear words that is mostly from Ed. 4 yaoi pairings: Elricest, RoyEd, HavocEd, Edvy (BTW the yaoi is slight and most are onesided). An annoying authoress placing herself in the story.

You have been warned… The RoyEd starts here…

Al stared at the man in front of him. And when I mean stared, I really mean stared. He wasn't surprised that the man was here. He was actually an invited guest… And he wasn't smitten by the man's good looks, though the authoress certainly was.

No… He was staring because the man looked too good… like the man tried his damn hardest to look his best. And who in the hell wears a tuxedo in a normal get-together dinner? Someone who planned to get someone's affections! That's who!

And with Al's observant characteristic, a trait of a true scientist, he knew long ago who Roy Mustang had his eyes on. None other than his own brother, Edward Elric!

Alphonse thought the authoress was slightly getting over dramatic and a bit theatrical.

Roy smiled at Al. "Hi Alphonse. Shrimp in there?"

Al was glowering inside but he smiled cheerfully at the General. "Yup! Come on in!" Al stepped aside to let the General in. Roy entered and Alphonse waited for the man to set some distance between them before he shut the door and to answer the teasing of the authoress that was sure to come.

"Somebody is getting a bit possessive!!"

"I am not!"

"Oh yes you are!"

"Not!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"That's great Alphonse! You admitted it!"

The authoress was now grinning triumphantly.

Alphonse grumbled and couldn't believe that he fell for such a childish trick. "I can't believe he'd take advantage of this dinner!"

"But Al… you also planned something…"

"That's different!"

"How so?"

"W-well… I, for one, did not go overboard trying to make myself look good…"

"Hn… Fine. But Mustang looked great!"

"Yeah… he does… Wait, did you just called him Mustang?"

"Yup! I like to call him that. But sometimes when I write in code I call him Horsy! And sometimes when I narrate or write I just call him Roy…"

Alphonse sniggered at the Horsy part but his curiosity, another trait of a true scientist, made him stop. "But why do you call me and brother by our first names?"

"It's because Mustang is way older than me! You two are only a single-digit year older than me."

"You're younger than me? And yet you order and annoy me like you are the boss of me!"

"It's a part of the story and my personality! And also, if you think just because Roy Mustang is way too old for Ed and that they can't fall in love because of their arguments, you are dead wrong. Sometimes age doesn't matter in love and haven't you heard the phrase 'The more you hate, The more you love'?

"Who's side are you on?"

"No-one's!"

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO DAMN SHORT THAT HE FREAKING NEEDS A FREAKING 12 FOOT LADDER JUST TO REACH A FREAKING HIGH CUPBOARD!!! YOU IDIOTIC BASTARD!"

Al and the authoress froze. It wasn't Al who said that.

"I forgot that General Mustang and brother are not supposed to be left alone in a room even for just 5 minutes…"

Al checked the dining room and he saw one Edward Elric glaring angrily at one smirking Roy Mustang.

Thru the years Ed had become mature enough to have a little bit of control with his short temper tantrums. Meaning he didn't attacked anyone he knew if they only insulted him once and he will just scream a rant. But if Roy Mustang was a complete stranger Ed won't hesitate to punch him… with his right hand. And also if Roy Mustang was sane enough not to crack another short joke, he wouldn't have to dodge an attack from Ed.

Needless to say, Roy Mustang wasn't sane enough.

"My, my… that little body of yours really have big lungs… How could it possibly have fit inside of you? Maybe we should let some doctors check and I just know we'll have to drug you just for you to stop squirming like an itsy-bitsy worm…"

"He… has a death sentence…"

"YOU ARE SO FUCKING DEAD MUSTANG!!!"

Ed started running and readied his arm to land a nice and solid punch in the gut when…

"BROTHER!!!"

Ed paused and looked at Al who was glaring at him. They stayed like that for a few seconds then Ed sighed and lowered his arm. After sending Roy some scary looks he promptly went to the kitchen to fix the drinks.

"Nice control with Ed!"

Alphonse gave a meek smile, no one knows if it was directed to the General or to the authoress. "I'm sorry about that General… But you know you shouldn't provoke brother…"

Roy, who looked momentarily surprised, blinked and smiled at Al. "I know but it's much to fun to play around with your little brother."

"Oooh!!! A new definition for little brother!!! Literally little!!!"

"I HEARD THAT!!! Colonel Bastard!"

"It's General now! And I have a name! It's Roy."

Al and the authoress stared at Roy Mustang, who was smiling cheekily. Did he just told Ed to call him by his first name? He did!

Ed's head peeked out of the kitchen. He was blushing a faint pink. Al stared at the blush with the mixture of affection and slight jealousy.

"And what does that mean?" Ed demanded.

Roy shrugged and the cheeky smile turned into a smirk.

Ed just scowled.

Roy's smirk dropped and he looked a little guilty. "Riza told me a few moments ago that she won't be coming…"

Al raised an eyebrow and Ed looked slightly surprised, the blush finally fading from his face.

"Why?" Surprisingly, or maybe not, both Elric's asked the question at the same time. They looked at each other, smiled and then stared back at the General in perfect synchronization!

Roy coughed. "She had… things to do."

Alphonse eyed the General but he nodded in an understanding way. Ed raised an elegant eyebrow but he's cute face soon disappeared.

"Totally not flipping obvious…"

The authoress' words were filled, coated and dripping with sarcasm.

Al looked baffled. The authoress noticed this and explained quickly.

"He told Hawkeye not to come so he can make some moves on Ed without Hawkeye looking. Because she might use it for blackmail. And she's really protective of you guys. I can just imagine what he promised to Hawkeye just to make her skip this dinner. "

Al raised an eyebrow.

"WHAT? If you've been reading and writing for a long time, you get these subtle hints."

Alphonse rolled his eyes but he was slightly annoyed that the trigger-happy woman wasn't there just because General wanted to flirt with Ed and be safe from the protective woman's bullets.

"Ummm… Alphonse? You've been making faces for a while now… Is there something wrong?"

Alphonse finally realized that the General was still there and he was looking worriedly at Al. Now where has he seen that look before?

Al blushed hotly, mostly because he was embarrassed. Really, that annoying authoress wasn't worth the trouble.

"Hey!"

Al ignored the authoress' whine. "It was nothing General!!! I was just thinking…"

Thankfully, Roy didn't push and the two were engulfed in awkward silence.

Then, the doorbell rang. Al smiled. "I'll get that…"

Alphonse walked to the front door. "This is really weird… The General is making moves on my brother, I have a link with an authoress, I am protective of my brother and the annoying authoress keeps annoying me…"

"Ha! I totally rule! But seriously… this is nothing compared to our school!"

"I'm thankful that I don't go to your school then…"

"But I wanted you guys to go to my school so bad…"

"News flash… We live in another world!"

"That makes that wish more desirable…"

Al groaned quietly and opened the door.
