AN: I know this is short. I don't have a whole lot of computer access right now so this was typed on my phone. I also am working on another story that I am interested in publishing. I just wanted tto give my patient readers a little something to keep them going. I am not abandoning this story.
Ed woke up slowly and felt strong arms around her. She tried to slip out of them without disturbing the man. Instead of escaping the grip it became tighter. When she realized she wouldn't get free she began to shake and tremble. The fabric of the blue military jacket making her even more desperate to get away. She began to plead in a whisper, knowing it would do her little good. But she couldn't stand it anymore. "Please, no more. I-I can't."
Roy felt her shaking and held her gently. He rubbed her hair trying to sooth her. "Shhhh. It's over. You're safe. It's ok."
Ed felt her eyes begin to sing with tears as she began to beat her casted hand against the chest. "Leave me alone! You bastard! Not in front of the girls! You promised!"
Roy realized that while his wife was in his arms, her mind was still trapped in that basement. He had seen soldiers have flashbacks like this in Ishbal, but it unnerved him to see it in Ed. He let go of her and stood up, stepping away from the bed. He knew that his being so near to her was probably what set her off.
A nurse soon came in with a sedative and Ed began to calm down. Soon she was breathing normally and looked away from Roy.
"I'm sorry. I-I can't look at you in uniform. They were always in uniform."
Roy nodded and slipped the jacket off. "Is that better?"
Ed nodded. Now that she could think clearly she remembered Roy saving her from Envy, but it was still hard to look at him.
Roy sat down on her bed. "Ed, I know this is hard, but I promise, I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to do everything I can to get you through this."
When Ed nodded he kissed her on the forehead and helped her settle into bed to rest. He still had to go let his daughters know that Envy was no longer a threat.
