**Okay so I couldn't remember all the fact about the Exams, so I'm just winging it here... Plus I couldn't be bothered to re-watch the episode with the flash back... It's such a pain! Someow this turns into a romance thing... -_- **
Still in present day!
Me and Ed wonder what to do so we just stick close to each other and stay on the outskirts of the arena. Out of harms way. Someone's started fighting with another person and has made a wooden sword from a large fallen tree branch. I run without thinking. That guy's going to kill the other one! I tink before I clap my hands and press my hand against my auto-mail, creating a iron sword. I reach the men fighting and slice the wooden sword in half the two halfs falling to the ground as I slide slightly on the ground. I crouch down low and my metal arm/sword sines in the sun light. Ed runs toward me and claps his own hand and presses them against my auto-mail. It turns back into my arm and I stand up, brush off my cloak.
"Aw my cloak... I reach behind me and see a massive dirt stain along the back. I try to rub it off but it made it worse. So I just take off the cloak all together. My auto-mail shines in the sun and flashes into surrounding peoples eyes. I clap my hands and press them to the ground between me and Ed and create stairs that go over surrounding peoples heads and end on the endge of the arena. I bekon Ed and he follows me onto the stairs and we walk across the arena on the stairs in the air.
We step off te stairs and walk around some more just observing other people. Te others seem weiry around us now keeping their distance and not doing anything to hurt each other as we walk past.
I frown slightly and turn to Ed, "So, Ed. How'd you do the clappy thing?"
"What?! You're asking me? What about you Jamia?!" Ed looks at me furiously and stomp his foot onto the ground crossing his arms.
"Urm, well. You see..." I muttered, "How about we say it at the same time?"
Ed nods.
"1, 2, 3..."
"I attempted human transmutation." We both said at the same time.
My eyes open wide, so does Ed's.
"Did you say...?" Ed whispers
"Human transmutation...?" I finish.
I nod, he nods too. A tear pricks in my eyes and I turn away hiding my face. He grabs my hand and turns me around. I gasp as we come face to face. I study his face seeing pain but also hope and joy behind his eyes. A tear slides down my cheek and Ed raches up and wipes it away with a gloved hand. He hugs me gently and I bury my face into his shoulder and let tears slide down my face.
Even though he is a child, I feel conected to him somehow... It's strange.
I sniffle and pull away from Ed wiping my tears from my face. I turn and look around.
"It's getting a little dark... Maybe we sould ead back to the stage...?" I say gloomily.
"Okay. Let's go..." Ed grabs my hand and tugs me along with him. I follow admantly, still wipping my face.
We reach the stage and evryone else has already gathered
"Oh, okay... It seems you have all gathered again. I would like to inform you all that this years test is over. We will keep in touch and let you know if you go to the phisical or not." The militay person heads off and everyone goes back home. We're about to head off when a millitary officer stops us.
"You two have both been instantly enrolled in the Phisical exam. It will be in two months. Make sure you're ready." The oficer walks off and me and Ed look at each other startled.
"I can't believe it... We're in!" I say happily and smile at Ed my happiness restored.
Ed and I went back to the hotel where I was staying and we stopped outside.
"Hey, Ed do you wan to stay here? It's kind of late so... You know." I mutter.
"Sure. Why not. I don't have anywhere else to go." Ed walks ahead of me and opens the door.
I grin, "Thank you kind sir." I walk trough the door and grab Ed's hand as we go up the stairs. He blushes lightly as we reach the floor of my room. I grab the key from my poket and open te room.
I enter draging Ed in with me. I close the door and go to the sofa, I grab the book I'm currently reading and start to read a new chapter.
"Well. Jamia... What are you rading?" Ed looks over my shoulder from behind the sofa.
"None of your buisness..." I say closing the book and looking behhind me, Ed was closer than I thought and our faces were almost touching. My breath instantly beomes hevier and my human hand starts to shake in my lap while my auto-mail clutches the book.
Ed's breath quickens too and he grabs the back of the sofa. He leans forward slightly and our foreheads touch, I blush and close my eyes.
If I can't see him it isn't real...
He leans furter forward and our lips touch in a light kiss. It's warm. I lean forward into Ed and press harder down of his lips. Our breath quickens and we break appart. I blush and look away, Ed walks around the sofa and sits next to me. I look at im and is face is flushed red.
"What now... We can't really do much..." Ed whispers.
"I d... Don't know..." My hand shakes as I put the book on the floor next to me. I look back at Ed blush. Ed werilly puts his hand on my shoulder pulling me back to the sofa. I yawn, so does Ed. I pull my legs up and yawn again then fall into a light sleep, still only vaugely aware of Ed pulling off is cloak and drapping it over me then curling up to me himself. I smile tiredly and pull the red cloak around myself.
