Chapter 8

Roy woke up at 6 am. Wide-awake, He couldn't figure out why. The only thing that came to mind was Ed having a nightmare. He hurried to the front room. Ed was lying on his back sleeping sound, he didn't look troubled. Roy sighed in relief and went back to bed. 'Why the hell did I wake up?' He thought as he lay back down. After 30 minutes he got up again and went to the kitchen. Ed was still sleeping. Roy silently made a sandwich and ate it. 'Damn it all! I want to sleep!' But he was wide-awake. 'I'll read.' He got up and walked passed the sleeping Elric and grabbed his book and headed back to his room only to be stopped.

THUMP!

Roy turned only to see Ed laying flat on his face on the floor.

"Son of a bitch. What happened?" Ed said still half asleep. Roy laughed.

"You fell off the couch pipsqueak."

"Bastard that should be against the law, insulting a man that's half asleep and just fell." Ed mumbled as he tried to stand. He fell again. "Shit!" He was more awake now.

"What happened know?"

"OW SHIT SON OF A BITCH!"

"Edward? What's Wrong?"

"Turn the damn light on!"

Roy did and went to see what was wrong with Ed.

"Ow! I can fix it."

The knee dislocated. And was stretching the wires loose.

"Any way I can help?"

"Uh.yeah hold my leg in place."

Roy hurried over and held Ed's leg as he asked. He watched Ed mess around with a wire and transmute a few wire back to there ordinal state. Some had ripped or broke in half.

"Ok move." Ed ordered. Ed took hold of his own leg as Roy backed up. Ed pulled the joint together and, with his automail hand hit the side of his leg as hard as he could, popping it back in place.

"There good as new."

"You act like you have done that many times before.'

"I have."

"…"

"What?!"

"What the hell did you do to your leg?"

"Nothing."

"Damn it Ed! Why do you keep hiding these things?"

"I don't know!"

"Then what happened?"

Ed stood up and walked around the front room making sure it was going to hold. Then sat on the couch. He could feel Roy glaring at him.

"WHAT?!"

"What happened to your damn leg!?"

"I DON"T KNOW ROY! DAMMIT! I DON"T KNOW!! I WAS DRUNK AND WOKE UP WITH IT DISLOCATED OK? ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Truthfully, I forgot."

Roy blinked, "You forgot? How long ago did it happen?"

"I don't know. Probably 2 months ago."

"Shit Ed."

"Shut up."

"As soon as we get moved into the new house your calling Winry."

"I planed on it anyway."

"I'll let her kick your ass this time."

"Gee Thanks."

Roy went back to his room with his book and Ed lay down. 'Bastard General' With that last thought he was asleep again. Roy on the other hand read until eight o'clock.

Roy sighed and went to take a shower. After that he started digging around for boxes and decided Ed needed to get his lazy ass out of bed.

He walked over beside the couch. Ed has face buried in the back of the couch. Roy reached down and grabbed the bottom of the couch and flipped it over.

Roy laughed to whole time Ed cursed him and tried to get up.

"You're a bastard!"

"Help me pack."

"WHY THE HELL SHOULD I AFTER PULLING A STUNT LIKE THAT!?"

"I was only looking for a laugh don't get your little panties up in a bunch."

"Shut up!"

Roy laughed. "How's you back?"

"Probably broken."

"I meant the gashes not you spine."

"Heartless!"

"Well?"

"They need to be looked at. Sadly you will have to do that AFTER I get out of the shower."

"Lets me see them before you get in the shower."

"Gggrrr" Ed headed toward the kitchen. Roy sighed and sat down. Ed came back with an armful of junk food, and threw it all on the couch then turned back to the kitchen.

"What the hell do you think your doing?"
"Getting more to eat"

"What no eat something healthy."

"Why?"

" Note the word 'healthy'."

"Well um…hmm…"

Ed dug around in the kitchen and came back in and looked at Roy. "The only healthy foods you have I'd have to cook."

"…So?"

"I ain't cooking."

"Then you aren't eating."

"Gggrrr. What should I cook?"

"Whatever you want."

"You do know I can't cook worth shit."

"Then I'll teach you."

"Son of bitch."

"What do you plan on cooking?"

"Nothing."

"But I'm hungry."

"Go cook it yourself."

"No."

"Well I'm not cooking."

"And your not going to eat all that shit for breakfast launch and dinner."

"Fine I'll eat it for breakfast."

"No you won't."

"You can't stop me." Ed turned to the couch to clear a spot to sit.

Snap!

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT FOR?"

"Because like I said you're not eating all that."

"SO YOU BURN IT?"

"Why not?"

"YOU WAISTED IT!"

"So?"

"Gggrrr why can't I eat that? I need to gain weight."

"You need nutrition and that will help you gain the weight you need."

"Yeah well nutrition doesn't taste good."

"You can be so childish sometimes."

"I'm not a child!"

"I didn't say you were I said you act like one."

"I'm going to take a shower."

"Let me see your back."

"Why? It will look the same after the shower."

"Not true. It will look cleaner."

"Damn bastard! You always think your right."

Ed let Roy look over his back.

"It's starting to heal nicely."

"Good I'm getting in the shower."

After Ed got out of the shower and Roy put more cream on his back, they packed everything up and took it all to the new house. After the last box was brought in it was nearing 7 pm.

"Go timing if you ask me." Ed stated.

"I'm starving."

"Lets go get something to eat."

"No I want to at least start unpacking a little to night. Order something." Roy said as he pointed to the phone.

Ed went to the phone and orders them both something. (A/N: They can eat whatever you want them to)

"Call Winry."

"That can wait."

"No it can't not after what happened this morning! Call her or I will!"

"Ok ok. God you're a bastard fine I will."

Ed picked up the phone and dialed the Rockbells number.

"Hello Rockbell Automail. This is Winry."

"Hey it's Ed."

"Ed? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?! WHY HAVN'T YOU CALLED…"

Ed pulled the phone away from his ear and let her finish her rant.

"You finished?"

"Yes. Why haven't you called? I haven't talked to you since Al's funeral."

"Sorry Winry. I was wondering if you could come down to Central soon."

"Why?"

"Heh Heh…well you see my automail really needs work."

"WHAT? Your not due for a tune up for another few months what did you do to it?"

"Them."

"WHAT?"
