Thank you all for reviewing! I love hearing from you guys. In this chapter Raven sings a song, I'd like to point out that the song doesn't belong to me. It is by Christina Perri. I don't own it in anyway. Thank you! Can't believe it's chapter 10 already…

Chapter 10

After Ed and Al had left I made myself comfortable in my hospital bed. It wasn't easy but I managed to get cozy enough to be sleepy. My mind started to replay the events of the day.

Ed helped me walk. Al caught me from falling. Al asked what my favorite flower was. Those were the things I thought of as my mind drifted into sleep.

[The next morning]

I awoke well rested and ready to do something. My body was seriously getting sick of sitting all the time. I stood from my bed and walked out of the room. My legs weren't sore or hurt anymore. I almost felt like a new girl!

I made my way up some stairs and onto the roof where Al and Ed had sparred that one time. I chuckled remembering Ed kicking Al in the face when he had a bed sheet on him. I slowly frowned as I realized that I wasn't at that part yet in the series.

I haven't even met Barry the Chopper yet…Even though Barry was a serial killer; he was one of my favorite characters until his old body had killed him.

Shaking my head of the random thoughts I went to the edge of the roof and looked down, examining the city below. It was really an awesome sight to behold. People below went on with their daily life as I sat here wondering how the hell to get home. It seemed slightly unfair. But hey, who said life was ever fair? Or the Truth for that matter…

The wind picked up a little making my brown hair sway in the wind. The breeze felt amazing.

My thoughts drifted to Ed and I blushed lightly. Every time I think about him I blush! He doesn't even know me well; I can't expect him to like me back. I know everything about him. All he knows about me is that I'm a teenage girl who faints a lot.

My melancholy expression turned to a frown. "Damn it." I didn't think about much after that. Suddenly a song popped into my head. It was one of my favorite songs. I slowly opened my mouth.

"Heartbeats fast.
Colors and promises.
How to be brave,
how can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
all of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.
One step closer."

I took a small breathe and continued.

[Edward]

Ed and Al woke up early so Ed could get the best flowers. Al and Ed made their way into the flower shop and Ed smiled brightly. "It smells sweet in here."

Al chuckled and glanced around, looking for sun flowers.

Ed looked through different flowers and finally came upon the tall yellow ones called sun flowers. Since they were so big Ed picked two out of the bunch. He walked over to Al. "Do these look good?"

Al nodded, giving a small thumbs up. "They look awesome." He commented. They probably smelled great too but Al couldn't smell since he didn't have his human body. Something he did missed a lot.

Ed paid for the flowers and they made their way to the hospital. Ed was sweating a little, hoping she liked them. He didn't like making girls cry or unhappy period. It just felt wrong.

Al watched his brother in amusement. Ed never acted this way with Winry. They were more like brother and sister it seemed with all the fighting and such. He could tell Ed liked this girl. Al hoped he wasn't getting his hopes up for nothing.

They went into the hospital and up the stairs. Once they were at Ravens room Ed knocked on the door softly. "Raven?" Ed and Al waited with no response. Ed banged on the door harder. "Hey! Raven, wake up or open the door."

No response.

"Maybe she is somewhere else?" Al suggested. Ed sighed, rubbing his neck. "Maybe, but where?"

"You look on the roof and I search the halls okay?" Ed agreed and started to turn, running up the steps. He made it to the top and slowly opened the door to the roof. The golden haired teen stopped when he heard something.

Is that singing?

[Raven]

"I have died everyday waiting for you.
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you.
For a thousand years,
I love you for a thousand more.

Time stands still.
Beauty in all she is.
I will be brave,
I will not let anything take away,
what's standing in front of me.
Every breath,
every hour has come to this.
One step closer."

I finished off the last note nicely. I suddenly felt that I wasn't alone anymore. My body slowly turned to see Edward by the door that lead onto the roof. He was blushing lightly and holding two sun flowers. I blushed tomato red and turned away from him.

Did he just hear me singing! I've never let anyone hear me before! He probably thinks I'm terrible at it. Wait, why does he have sun flowers?

I stopped with the nonsense thinking and waited for Ed to approach me. It was silent for a few moments then I heard his footsteps coming closer to me. Keep calm. Be cool.

Ed came and stood beside me, a smile present on his face.

"You're a good singer." He complimented. My heart started to race quickly, like I was running a mile a minute. I didn't get compliments much, especially from an Elric brother.

"Thank you." I mumbled. My throat seemed caught so those were the only words I could produce at the moment. He nodded and slowly held out the flowers in his hands to me. I blinked and looked at him then the flowers.

"What are these for?" I asked, slowly taking them and smelling their sweet scent. "For your release from the hospital…" Ed mumbled and looked away, crossing his arms as if it wasn't his idea to do it anyway. I frowned for a moment but then smiled. "Thank you Ed."

I leaned over and softly kissed his cheek. My stomach felt as though it was going to burst from butterflies. Ed's face was really red at this point. It made me chuckle.

He growled and turned away from me, pouting. "W-who said you could kiss my cheek! Don't do that stuff o-okay!" He growled.

I just laughed and started to make my way toward the door leading down to the hospital. "Sure Ed, I'll ask next time." I winked and made my way downstairs. I could hear Edward's voice quickly behind me.

"Hey wait for me!"

[End]

Awww. Isn't that just cute as hell. Also, I'd like to point out that no, Raven is not in love yet and neither is Ed. Yes, I know that song was about love but she just really likes that song and so do I. There is still a lot that has to happen before they even consider love. They both just have crushes. Promise you. Anyway, please review!
