AN: I don't FMA or any related characters.
Roy glared at Phil but he gladly accepted the little box. He could just hope that his cousin didn't mess everything up like he used to do when they were younger. Jade had always been skilful while Roy and Phil had been clumsy.
"It was very expensive but you told me that I should care about the price," Phil went on. "I choose a beautiful one with three diamonds and one sapphire. Jade liked it and my girlfriend said that it is one of the most beautiful she had ever seen and she works with jewellery…"
Roy glared at him. "I always thought we had a pact, Philippe!" he hissed. "Didn't we promised at each other that you would wait with the girlfriends until I settled down?"
Jade chuckled before she kneeled down since her tummy hurt too much for stay on her feet. "It was the pact, Roy, but neither Phil nor I wanted to wait until you finally muster up the courage to ask her out," she laughed. "I stayed in contact with your friend Maes. He said that you were a hopeless case and that I should not wait until the day you would finally ask her because it would be likely that I would be old and grey by the time you do it…"
Roy turned his glare at her before he opened the little box to look at the ring. "Good choice, Phil," he admitted before he get down on his knee before he looked up at his new girlfriend. "Riza, I am sure that there are better ways to ask you," he started, "but there is no one who means as much to me as you do and I have just one question for you: will you marry me?"
Jade's face paled considerably and she fainted before she had the chance to hear the answer. Phil picked her up and carried her away while Riza nodded, too surprised to say something. Roy grinned like a maniac which was – according to his cousins – perfectly normal for him and took Riza's hand to slip the beautiful ring onto her finger.
Tadah - he finally did it!
So, how many readers knew what Phil bought - under Roy's orders - in Creta?
