Hello! Thank you for the follows and favourites. When I see the follows and the favorites I'm like wow my book is that good. I get all happy inside knowing that there are people out there that are reading my book. Even having a lot of homework and it was Thanksgiving I had a lot of time to write this book. I left it off in a cliff-hanger so I will let you go. Now go read my book. Thanks :)
After the doctor said that the room went silent. Roy didn't know what to say. Taking care of Ed was just not what Roy wanted but Roy always thought of Ed as his own kid. His thoughts took him back was that what he thought of Ed as his own son. Roy felt bad for Ed for all the crap in his life, losing his father, mother then losing his brother. Ed never got to be a child. Now he can't even go out and play in the sun. He couldn't even go and play in the snow. Ed's life was already covered in darkness he was trying to get to the light to make everything right but now he was pushed back into the hole that he was so desperately trying to get out of. Roy looked at the doctor he knew what to say.
"Yes I will be Ed's guardian".
"That's good to hear you can going see Edward".
Roy left without saying a word everything that he needs to know was already said. Roy closes the door and looked up to see that no one was in the hallway. Roy was walking to Ed's room all that Roy could hear were his heavy footsteps and his heart pounding in his ears. Roy was nervous he didn't know what to expect from Ed. The doctor already said that he would be different. Would Ed be yelling at Roy to get out or say nice things to him? Before Roy could finish the thought he was standing at the door that led to Ed's room. Roy took a breath and opens the door. Roy was preparing for yelling and screaming so Roy looked at the ground he can't look at Ed knowing that he was not there when Edward needed him the most. Roy stood there for a minute there was no screaming or yelling there was not even any words coming out of Ed's mouth. Roy looked up to see Ed lying asleep. Roy walked up slowly to Ed's bed. He didn't want to wake the sleeping alchemist. Roy just looked at Ed that's when the young alchemist's eyes open. Ed turned and looked at Roy
"Who are you" Ed said with a quiet voice no louder than a whisper.
"I am Roy Mustang do you remember me".
There was a long pause before Ed broke the silence.
"Yes a little but not much".
Now Roy knew why he couldn't tell Al about Ed. Ed is a little confused about who he is and who his friends are? If Al came and Ed remembered all the bad things he did his brother not the good how would Ed react to Al. Roy pulled up a chair to the bed.
"How are you feeling".
"I'm ok but still a little confused on something".
Ed said with no hesitation, his voice was easier to make out. Ed was now talking louder than a whisper but not much. Roy was trying to be nice to him but it was hard not to make snarky comments about Ed height or how he looks so peaceful.
"What are you confused about".
"Um well I don't remember some things from the past and how I got here on second thought I don't know where I am".
Roy lets out a sigh this is going to be harder than he thought.
"First what do you remember from your past".
"I remember that I live in Resembool and that I have a brother I remember my father leaving and my mother" Ed stop before finishing the sentence.
Roy was looking at Ed there was sadness in his eyes.
"It's okay Edward you don't need to tell me about that I already know. Let's leave that question for now. I will tell you where you are and how you got here".
Roy finished. He looked at Fullmetal, he was asleep. Roy heard a knock at the door.
"Come in" he said with that the door open and Roy and saw Hawkeye standing there.
"It's time for you to go home and get some sleep sir".
Roy looked at her there were dark circles forming underneath her eyes. Roy could tell that she has not gotten sleep for some time. He turned to face her.
"Why don't you go home and get some sleep you look tired. I will stay here with Fullmetal".
Roy hated to see his lieutenant go out of her way for him. It was nice to see that she cared for him and that she'll risk her well-being for him. He couldn't live with himself if she got sick or even killed because of him. If that meant being shot because he cared then so be it. He would be shot hundred times before he let anything happen to his lieutenant.
"All right you win I'll go home and get some sleep but this won't happen again".
Hawkeye turned and close the door behind her. Roy was happy that the lieutenant listens to him and he was happy that he didn't get shot for caring about her. Roy turns and sat back down in the chair letting sleep consume him.
The next morning he was woken by a knock at the door.
"Yes who is it".
"It is me lieutenant Hawkeye can I come in".
"Yes"
Roy quickly blinked the sleep out of his eyes.
"How is Ed"?
Hawkeye said while coming in.
"He's still asleep but I think that he is get better".
"On another note what are we going to say to Al? He's worried sick about his brother I haven't given him a straight answer to his question".
"Leave Al to me if Al asks you about his brother you can't give him the truth that is the doctor's orders. Tell the others to".
Hawkeye nodded and left. Roy turns his attention to sleeping Ed. About 30 minutes later Ed woke up. Ed turns to see Roy looking at him.
"So you're awake Fullmetal".
Ed nodded.
"How are you feeling".
There was no answer Roy wonder if Ed went back to sleep.
Then Ed let out a sigh "and why do you care".
Roy was a little hurt by Ed's words but this was how Ed was hotheaded, has a big mouth, and hated to be called short.
"Find whatever don't answer me it's not like I care".
Ed turns around so he didn't have to look at Roy. Roy Knew that Ed wanted to be left alone so Roy did just that. Roy walked out of the room and walked into the cafeteria to get some breakfast.
It has been four days since Ed woke up from his coma. Everyday brought its own challenges on one hand Ed had a different mood every day. One day he could be sad then the next he would be happy. Ed doesn't remember those four days but we do. Then on the other hand we have Alphonse he is beating down are neck trying to get information about his brother. We told him that he was taking a free vacation in the south. Al didn't buy it. Roy was waiting in the waiting room. Roy was waiting to know when Ed can leave and when he can tell Al. Roy saw the doctor.
"Roy you can take Edward home in two days. I will let you decide when to tell Al. I told Edward that he has Photosensitivity but I have not told him that he will be going home with you. I thought that would be best if you told him".
After the doctor said that he walked away. Roy walked down the long hallways to Ed's room how is he going to tell Al. That question has been on Roy's mined for four days and he still does not have an answer. Roy opened up the door to see Ed sitting and looking out the window. There were heavy draped curtains over the window. The room had no sunlight in it the only light was from the ceiling lights. Roy walked up to Ed. Ed never looked at Roy. Roy didn't know if he knew that he was there.
"Fullmetal are you okay".
There was a tiny smirk on Ed's face but it was quickly replaced by frown.
"What do you think? I can't go out in the sun hell I can't even see the sun anymore. It sucks the doctor said it will go away but how long, how long will I have to wait. Al will have to wait to get his body back all because of me and the stupid disease".
Ed was now yelling but he was always looking at the window.
"Speaking of Al where is he".
Ed calm down a little bit but he was still yelling.
"Al doesn't know that you're in the hospital".
That got Ed to look at Roy there was surprise written all over Ed's face.
"What, why, how could you not tell him, Al must be worried sick about where I am and you never told him".
"I was told by the doctor not to tell him because it might hurt him to see you like this".
"I don't care about what a stupid doctor said he's my little brother he should know where I am".
"I will let you talk to him after I talk to you, you need to know something".
"What"
"I am going to take care of you the doctor didn't think that your brother was going to be enough support. So he asked me to take care of you".
"Huh? Wait what the hell. I don't need some babysitter I'm perfectly fine and if it wasn't for this disease I been out of this damn place".
"You don't get it do you. You have been in a coma for three days then you don't remember the past four days on top of that you can't go out in the sun. You're far from fine. You need someone to take care of you. You're just a kid you need a parent to look out for you. There's nothing wrong with asking for help".
Roy did it again yelling instead of listening but Ed needed to know that he care for him. Roy wanted Ed to know that he can lean on Roy and asked for help. Ed was taken aback by Roy's sudden outburst. He didn't like to act like a kid in front of people.
"Is that all or is there more".
Ed got up from the bed and walked to the door.
"I'm going to call Al and tell him what happened".
Roy was left alone in the room. The words were still echoing in his ears.
So what do you think? Please tell me what you think I like to know so that I can make it better. I forgot to tell you that Al is in his metal body and Ed does not have amnesia but with him going into a coma he has forgotten stuff about his life. It won't affect the story that much. And right now he mostly remembers everything. Thanks for reading and I will update every Friday. Have a nice weekend ~ bye.
