"A Parallel Universe"
Chapter Three; Munich's Buffet.
As Edward strode along the curbside, he noticed a small shop that wouldn't normally catch his eye.
It was tiny, almost similar to a dollhouse that a little girl would cherish. Though it wasn't a house in particular, of course it was a building; but it seemed to be a little restaurant. What a coincidence that his golden eyes would meet such a well-built stack of red bricks, which was ironically just in time for lunch!
His tiny legs, one clanking along the way, swept him into the tiny shop, and toward the counter that was covered with a tick glass. Through the glass, was a magnificent display of the foods that were to be served in the small shop, and boy, did they look delicious? Each food was clearly made by mere human hands. Unlike the other world, where grass could quickly be transmuted into bread just by simply clapping and placing your hands on the outer rim of a specific circle.
His golden gaze hovered over the scrumptious food and toward a desert counter where each desert was either vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry flavored. The pastries had been drenched in another flavor of icing and on top would lay a beautifully crafted icing rose, only in strawberry.
The drool from the golden haired teen was now visible, and a light tint of pink fled over his soft ivory face as he wiped away the clear strand hanging from his lower lip. He turned to examine the room and any remaining costumers from the earlier hours- but to his surprise, he found no one.
The only things that were in the room now were Edward, and the food that lay behind a glass counter. Of course, Edward would have thought about devouring the food within one gulp and quickly taking his exit through the single glassed door that he had previously entered, but both his dignity, and a raven-haired man that arose from an entryway in the back shattered his hopes of doing so.
The man was tall, and had eyes the color of onyx. His dark hair made his skin seem paler than what it truly was, and the dark polo shirt and white apron didn't seem to help. He tilted his head to the side which allowed several strands of his jet black hair to swoop to the side as well, and greeted the stunned blonde with a warm and welcoming smile.
"Hello, and welcome to Munich's Buffet!" His onyx eyes seemed to burn with enthusiasm and possibly hope that Edward would buy something.
"..Roy?" Edward bluntly let out while staring at the man, whom seemed utterly shocked that the golden haired boy that he had never seen in his life before until now, had just recited his name so casually.
