Sleep
January 15, 2013
Sleep! Oh sleep for just a while longer! For when you wake, you will be slaves. ~ Posiedon
Ed tossed and turned on the makeshift cot, sweat glistening on his forehead and mumbling words that were too strained to make out.
Winry walked into the room, determined to wake him from his nightmare, but stopped when the suit of armor suddenly put out a hand and gently blocked her from his brother.
"Al?"
"Don't wake him."
"But… he's having a nightmare."
Al nodded.
"Al… he's suffering. Don't you want to make it stop?"
"It… he… it's better than what he actually goes through."
She realized then that she had no clue what kind of life her brothers lived.
