Edward glared at the brown sack placed in front of him.

"You've got some balls to try to bribe a State Alchemist," Ed chuckled to himself, sticking his hands in his pockets.

"Consider it endorsement," Leiutenant Colonel Chuck Peasani shrugged his shoulders. "And, Fullmetal, there's more where that came from."

"And if I don't want gold?" Ed's golden gaze peered up from underneath his lashes.

"I can get you anything. Rank. Women. Men, if you prefer."

"I'll consider your offer. But, if I take the fall, I'm bringing you down with me. Fuhrer Mustang doesn't miss a whole lot and I'm sure he won't forgive even me for it."

Peasani nodded and took the bag of gold from his desk and tossed it at the Elric. Edward grinned and, turning on his heel, walked quietly out of the office.

Roy stared at the boy in front of him, dumbfounded before erupting into uproarious laughter.

"That's what I said," Ed chuckling himself. "Now it's your turn, Mustang," he grinned maliciously. "What are you gonna offer me?"

Mustang folded his hands under his chin and cocked his head to the side.

"I can offer you understanding," Mustang started, a seriousness in his eyes that created one of the those wonderful pains in Ed's chest. "I can offer you a place to call home and someone to curl up to at night. I can offer you love."

The silence in the air was heavy before Edward laughed and closed his eyes.

"You know," he looked up at Roy from underneath his eyelashes, "I've always had a thing for black hair. I'll take your offer, my one," Ed stood, "and only," he sauntered toward Roy's desk, planting both hands on it and nuzzling Roy, "King."
