Good Morning
Chapter 10.


'Riza,' Roy smiled, 'You're too kind.'

His girlfriend returned the expression and entered the room, carrying a tray which held a bowl of cereal, plate of toast and coffee. All for him. His grin couldn't be any larger while she neared, 'I knew you would like breakfast in bed,' she picked up the bowl of cereal, 'So decided to do just that,' and threw the contents all over him.

Roy screamed. Moist cornflakes along with milk sprayed across the bed and all over him, 'What are you doing? I want breakfast in bed!'

She sniggered, 'But that is exactly what I'm giving you: breakfast in bed.'

The Flame Alchemist was not amused by her rather dim joke. He removed the dirty quilt from him, stood up, and snatched the tray off her, 'Well. More washing for you then,' and before she could say anymore, he happily skipped out of the room, tray in hand.

Riza realised her lack of common sense. 'Ah.'

Once the Lieutenant had finished removing the bed linen and stuffing it into the washing basket, she hurried downstairs, intending to have some breakfast herself, only to find Roy setting the table for her. The coffee flask had been refilled, and he was now buttering gorgeous, white toast. He smiled at her shocked expression.

'Looks good, don't you think?' he said, before sitting at the table. He took a large bite out of the toast, 'Mm. It is good. You should make some.'

Riza's shoulders slumped. . . . maybe she deserved that.

'Two courses. You're greedy.'

He smiled sweetly, 'You love me though.'

Riza averted her gaze towards the coffee flask. Before Roy could guess what she was about to do, she snatched the coffee and hurried out of the room. He growled in annoyance, stood to his feet and then smirked.

'Good luck drinking that out of a flask!. . . Stupid woman.'

Roy heard the gun click in the other room.
