After a while Winry pulled away and rolled off of Ed. Ed was a bit disappointed that it had to end, but he was tired too. Winry suddenly let out a small laugh as she thought to herself, and Edward turned and looked at her. Instead of asking why he asked:

" What just happened?"

Winry turned and looked at him smiling and blushing. She took his hand in hers and squeezed it.

" Does that question mean you don't wanna kiss me again?", Winry made a face of faux pout and looked into Edward's eyes, deep into his eyes. That one was a no brainer, of course he wanted to kiss her again! Ed opened his mouth but no words came out, he was too nervous to answer that question. It was ok because Winry already knew his answer by the blush of his cheeks and what he had said earlier.

Flashback...

" Well you had your 1st kiss with me.", Winry whispered. Ed smirked a kind of wicked smirk and looked at her.

" Yes but, I also want you to be my 2nd and my 3rd and my 4th and my...( blah blah blah)", Ed whispered back intimately.

End Of Flashback...

" Ed... I-I really like you, and I have since we were 4, I was just too stupid to realize it back then.", Winry forced out , she was really scared to say that and after all these years she had done it! Now she was about to find out if it was a mistake to tell him or not! ( However she was too afraid to use the word love, when she knew she was in love with him)

Ed's face turned even redder, he really like her too but didn't know how to say it exactly. He faked a frown, as he thought of something he could do.

" Well I'm sorry that you feel that way Winry... Cause I'm totally in love with you, and have been for years.", Ed smiled brightly as he had just let the cat out of the bag. He could see Winry' eyes go from a sorta despairful mood to bright and shining. She took out a wrench and bonked him on the head, not enough to hurt him or anything just a warning strike.

" Ouch!", Edward faked and reached up and rubbed his head where she hit him.

" What was that for?" He asked complainingly. Winry's lips began to puff a little then burst out laughing!

" Silly, don't scare me like that again! I love you just as much, if not more Ed!" Winry laughed a beautiful laugh, that was one of Ed's favorite things about Winry. Winry slowly sat up from her pillow and tip toed over to the door. She looked all around outside and when she didn't see Granny or Alphonse, she shut the door.

"Granny never walks in when my doors shut, its kinda our little rule.", Winry winked at Edward. Ed smiled and sat up waiting for his lady to return to him. Winry came over and sat on the edge of the bed next to him, and thought. She was so thrilled that after all these years the love she felt for Ed was returned by him too! She didn't know how he managed to love all of this, she thought as she looked up and down her body. Ed watched her with fascination, but knew what she was doing and didn't like it. He hated when she judged herself like this, he thinks she's perfect. As Winry's chin began to dip down to look at her stomach again, she felt a finger holding it up. Then that finger turned her head right around to Edward, and he was frowning.

" Don't judge yourself like that Winry, its bad for your self-esteem. You're perfect just the way you are, ALL of you!", Ed pointed out as he saw her trying to looked at her stomach again but, stopped when she saw it made him upset. Winry tried to remember what was happening earlier in the day, and remember when she ran out.

" Y'know Ed, before I ran out crying earlier. There was something I started to say, and.. and I'd like to finish it. Ed looked her and nodded slightly.

"Your eyes they're, they're so attractive it just makes me wanna... kiss you!", Winry finally finished; Diving back onto a smiling Edward Elric.

" I thought you'd never ask..", Edward lied, Winry chuckled a bit as she laid back on top of Edward. She positioned her hands on his firm chest and leaned in.

Ed stuck one hand back behind his head for the comfort and support of his neck, then placed the other back onto Winry's head; and pulled her closer. Edward closed his eyes and blushed ( AGAIN!) as their lips connected, this time immediately letting tongue in and enjoying every second of it. They didn't know what it was but, it was a good, connected feeling that they got.

He could taste Winry's lipgloss, and she could taste his always fresh breath. She knew he was big on oral hygiene. As their tongues fought for room in each others mouth, Winry could feel her love for Ed deepening. They could practically be asleep by this time but they were still awake, and " Connected". They didn't like to say making-out or french kissing or anything, so they simply said "Connecting". That was their secret code word, and it was cute!

After about an hour Winry pulled away again and sat up rubbing her arms and stretching. Ed sat up as well but had a look of wanting more, Winry didn't intend on connecting anymore right now. She had to get started on checking out his automail, so she yawned and wobbled over to her work desk. As she picked up the tool, she looked at the engraving and smiled. She sat down and picked up a carver tool and inscribed the rest, slowly and carefully. Ed tried to see what she was doing from her bedside but gave up and just walked over there instead. By the time he had gotten over there she was practically done, and admired what it now proudly said.

" What did you put on it?", Ed asked curiously reaching down to pick up the tool. Winry smiled with no verbal response and gave him the tool. He squinted his eyes carefully to read what was now added to the previous engravement. It read:

" Edward, My 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Nothing could ever take away this Fullmetal Love!~ WinryRockbellXEdwardElric"

Winry blushed a little thinking it was a bit corny but, when Ed leaned down and kissed her on the cheek she knew he must've like it.

" I love it Winry.", Ed chuckled a bit, while saying so. Winry chuckled back a little, and its a good thing she wasn't wearing any mascara...

" I'm really glad Edward, I really am!", Winry began to cry tears of overwhelming joy. Ed smiled, he had finally done it.

" See I told I would make you cry tears of joy.", Ed pointed out wiping a tear away from her chin. Winry looked into his eyes and smiled, As the phrase played through her mind over and over again, " Fullmetal Love"

" Yup and its all because of our Fullmetal love!", Winry whispered, and picked up Edward's metal arm even though she knew he couldn't feel it. She held it very close to her and sorta hugged it. Edward looked at her kind face and nodded:

"FullMetal Love indeed"
