FMA Drabble 3:
Sickness
Ed hated being sick. It not only interfered with his research and disrupted his daily schedule, it also made him feel weak, which he hated. If it were bad enough, it would even keep him home, and away from Mustang, who could not take many days off just to stay home and take care of him, as he had an important job to do.
And that was how Ed found himself. Sick with the flu, he could do little more than stay in bed and allow Alphonse to care for him, feeding him a home made remedy that his ingenious little brother had concocted every two hours or so.
Of course, Ed did not like being kept in bed. And he definitely did not like the taste of the medicine he was given. So, in his usual fashion, he yelled to show his displeasure. Or rather, he tried to yell. In a hoarse voice.
Alphonse, was amused by his elder brother's antics, but did nothing to change the situation for his brother.
After several hours of listening to his brother croaking "I don't want to stay in bed!" and "Are you trying to poison me with that vile potion of yours!" however, even the normally placid Al got a little irritated.
"Brother," Alphonse said seriously. "If you don't stay in bed, quiet, resting like I told you, I'll not let Colonel Mustang come to accompany you later tonight when he gets home, or for the rest of the week either."
When Ed opened his mouth to complain, Al gave him a cold look. "I mean it brother."
Ed immediately stopped his actions, scowling, and Al smiled at him pleasantly. "Now, isn't that much better?"
Apparently, Al knew of Ed's other weakness – he hated to be away from his beloved Roy for long periods of time more than anything.
