Sorry I was gone last week! It was so hectic, but all worth it to get that A in math! This is short, but more to come next week.
Responsibility
Winry had been having trouble sleeping enough as it was. Being eight months pregnant with twin boys didn't exactly come prescribed with sleeping aids. Winry had been trying her best to follow Granny Pinako's home remedies for sleeping, but she was still up at night.
She had finally gotten some sleep and woke to Ed.
"Edward?" Winry asked. He was standing on the balcony that was connected to their bedroom, staring up at the night sky. The best thing about living in the country was that the stars always littered the sky without city lights.
She climbed out of their bed – with a bit of difficulty due to her swollen stomach – and made her way over to the balcony.
When Winry placed a hand on Ed's shoulder, she couldn't help but notice how he nearly jumped out of his skin.
"Ed?" Winry asked. "Are you all right?"
"I'm fine," Ed answered with a sigh. From the dark circles under his eyes, Winry knew he hadn't been sleeping well lately. He was usually up with her, so he was getting just as little sleep as she was, but the sleep he was getting was restless.
"Tell me what's bothering you, Ed," Winry said.
Edward sighed. "You always get upset when I talk about it," he said, and Winry knew what he was talking about.
