My heart is Heavy chap. 10
Al had Greg around the neck as he struggled in his arms so Al tightened his grip "Time for you to take a nap buddy" Al squeezed as Greg hit the floor like a wet noodle. Winry was running so fast she didn't notice the rock she tripped over and fell to the ground sobbing 'Edward must think I'm a complete hopeless fool' she thought as she sat there and sobbed. Then she heard someone calling her "WINRY!" it was Edward 'Oh no he came after me' spotting her on the ground he started to run towards her but she stood up and started to run and he stopped and yelled "STOP DAAAAAMN IT!" She froze as she heard him walk up behind her and she turned to face him. He stared at her for a moment then walked closer to the pitiful broken woman he saw in front of him and he pulled her into a hug "You idiot" He said softly as she cried. She could hear his heart beating and it was beating fast as he leaned her back and stared into her tear filled eyes "I never knew you felt that way Winry." She looked up at him and sighed "It was a foolish girl's dream Ed to ever think you could love someone like me."
"Someone like you? What does that mean?" He leaned closer to her face "If it was a foolish girl's dream then I guess I had a foolish boy's dream." She stared at him confused "W-What?" she asked softly as he smiled slightly "I have loved you for a long time Winry Rockbell but I never thought you felt the same so thinking that I left that day seventeen years ago and carried that secret with me." He took a deep breath "When I met Windy she looked so much like you that I just fell in love with her. She knew about you and it never bothered her. But as time went on I realized you were two completely different women. But I never lost the love I had for you I just buried it deep inside me." She smiled up at him "Are you saying you love me too Ed?" He leaned in and kissed her lips softly then leaned back "With all my heart but I couldn't figure out a way to tell you." Throwing her arms around his neck she hugged him tightly as he held onto her not wanting to let her go. But then he came crashing back to earth as he stepped back and she saw the look in his eyes "I'm going to take care of that piece of shit husband of yours." He took her hand as they started walking back to the house. Stopping outside he told her to wait with the kids as he started into the house. She feared Edward would kill him so she yelled after him "Edward don't fuck him up too bad okaaay." Edward turned around and looked at little Ed still unconscious "I can't make any promises Winry."
As he entered the kitchen he saw Greg unconscious on the ground and looked at Al "Wake that piece of shit up" Al walked over and took the pitcher of water and poured it in Greg's face. He came up coughing and spitting water as Edward stood there staring at him. When he looked up at Ed he just grinned "What are you going to do now alchemist?" Edward nodded to Al who grabbed Greg's arm and pulled him up. Greg saw the look in Edward's eyes as he walked towards him "So now you're going to beat me up huh?" Edward smiled "Hell yes I am." The kids had all gathered around the window to watch as Winry stared on eyes widened at the sight of how pissed Edward was.
Greg still thought he had a chance to beat Edward as he lunged forward and Edward stepped to the side then turned and kicked him in the back sending him into the kitchen table. Al stepped forward but Ed stopped him "No Al he's mine." Knowing his brother was fully capable of handling himself Al still feared as pissed as Edward was he was going to kill the guy. Greg flipped around and began his shit spouting again "You think your all that? I had her first and let me tell you I enjoyed making her SCREAM!" Taking a deep breath at that statement Edward walked over and grabbed Greg by the collar then pushed him up against the wall. Staring furiously into Gregory's eyes he gritted his teeth and his right hand tightened into a fist.
"First you hurt my son" Swinging his arm Edward caught Greg in the face as blood flew from his lip. "Then you threw your own SON!" His fist connected once more to Greg's face gritting his teeth more he pushed his left arm into Greg's throat choking him "YOU CHOCKED MY DAUGHTER!" Then Edward stepped back some and Greg chocked some looking up at him and smiling a sarcastic smile and Ed lost it "Not to mention you hit Winry and tried to KILL HER!" Edward reared back his leg and brought it up and it connected with the side of Greg's head sending him sideways sliding down the wall. The all hell broke loose as Edward jumped on Greg and threw punch after punch and kick after kick kicking Greg's ass all over the kitchen. He was so furious that a man could hurt his own child that he snapped. The children watched in complete amazement at the way he moved, he was quick and fast and Greg never had a chance to get off the floor. Finally Winry had had enough as she ran into the kitchen "AL STOP HIM BEFORE HE KILLS HIM!" Al looked over at her then back to Edward "NO!" He said and Winry's eyes widened at him saying that because she knew then that Al didn't care if Ed did or not. "EDWARD!" she yelled as Edward picked Greg up off the ground and held him to his face. Pinako walked up behind Winry from where she had been watching the whole time "Don't stop him dear Ed knows what he's doing and he won't kill him." Clinching her hands to her chest Winry kept watching as Edward began to speak to a fucked up Gregory "You will sign those divorce papers and you will leave her and the boys alone or I swear the next time I see you I will kill you. Oh yeah and your military career is over as well once I make a phone call" Pulling his hand back one more time he landed the last punch that knocked Greg out cold on the floor.
Edward turned around and looked at Al "Can you take this garbage out of here?" Al nodded and walked over and picked Greg up by the back of the shirt and pulled him outside. Taking a deep breath Edward turned to Winry and saw her lip still bleeding. He walked over and got a towel and wet it then went to her took her hand and walked her over, flipped the chair up and sat her in it. Grabbing another chair and sitting it in front of her he sat down and placed the towel gently on her busted lip. The children had all came inside by then and looked at the destruction of the kitchen. Then all their eyes focused on the two people sitting in the chairs across from each other. Edward lowered his head as his bangs fell forward and sighed "I wouldn't have killed him Winry even though I wanted to. I'm sorry I wasn't here to protect you before." Her eyes widened as she stared at the top of his head. Reaching her shaking hand over she ran it up his cheek then back down under his chin and pulled his head up. When his face came up she saw the tears in his eyes and she moved his hand with the towel, leaned forward and kissed him.
All the kids were stunned but there were echo's of "AWWWW!" as Steven yelled "IT'S ABOUT TIME DAD!" Melissa clapped her hands and was happy "YAY! Kisses, kisses are good daddy!" Winry smiled as her lip split more and she cringed. Reaching up Edward put the towel back on it as she leaned back as he started to stand he leaned over and kissed her forehead. He walked over to Steven who was still holding little Ed and he took him from Steven's arms. Steven looked at his father "He fought well dad. He landed two kicks to my one on the guy." Edward slightly smiled and softly said "He did huh." Winry stood up and ran over to where Edward took her unconscious son "Ed is he alright?" Edward checked the bump on the back of the boy's head "Yeah I'm sure he'll be fine. It looks like a concussion and I'm sure he'll be up in a couple of days rearing to go." Winry went and got some bandages and handed them to Edward as he bandaged the boy's head. Still looking at the tuff little guy's face he remembered what his father had called him and it still pissed him off. These were great boys and they deserved to be loved by their father and he couldn't understand why a father would hit his child and hurt him so badly. Just then Ed's eyes opened slightly as he looked at Edward "Heeey little man how do you feel?" Ed's eyes looked at his mom "I tried to save you mom." Winry's eyes filled with tears as she looked at him and Edward remembered saying those same words when he was younger. Memories of the failed transmutation he and his brother performed flooded his mind as he teared up himself. Looking down at Ed he smiled softly "You did a fine job son." He hadn't even realized what he had said but Ed's eyes widened and he smiled some "Thank you." Winry had heard what he said and she started to cry more as Edward turned around and asked "Why are you crying Winry?" She hugged his neck tightly "Because Edward I love you so much." He whispered in her ear "I love you too." He leaned her back and smiled "Now take care of the little fighter I have a phone call to make." She nodded "Mmm hmm" and turned to tend to Ed.
Steven walked next to his father "What do you have planned now father?" Edward put his hand on the boys head and scuffed his hair "I have to talk to an old friend son." Picking up the phone and dialing the number his obnoxious voice answered the phone "Fuhrer Mustang here."
"Hey you obnoxious asshole it's me."
"Why is thisd the Fullmetal Alchemist?" Mustang teased as Edward got more annoyed "Listen carefully you pompous ass Winry's husband showed up here and well….he needs to be taken care of before I do something I'm going to regret." It was then Mustang's voice changed "What happened Ed?" Edward explained in full detail probably due to his giving reports in the military for so many years. Mustang asked if Ed could hold onto Greg for a couple of days while he sent someone for him. Edward didn't really like the idea but he agreed "I'll have Armstrong there as soon as possible." Edward sighed "Alright then I'll be waiting goodbye." Mustang yelled "HEY!" in the phone and Edward put it back to his ear "WHAT!" There was a grateful and sincere tone in Mustang's voice as he said "It's good to have you back Ed." Edward annoyed he'd say that just said "Yeah Goodbye Fuhrer." Then he hung up but he felt reassured that his friends were still there for him.
Hanging the phone up he saw Al walk back in "We have to hold onto him for a few days because Mustang's sending someone to get him." Al nodded knowing they'd have to keep an eye on him "Where should we put him brother?" Edward thought leaving him outside would be good but that was inhumane and Edward wasn't one for treating people wrong and then he thought keeping him in the basement was a good idea because he wanted him to hear the way a lady should be treated and he was going to make Greg more pissed than he already was. Who said Edward didn't have a devious streak. So Al put him in the basement and he woke up some as Edward stood in front of him "For the next few days you're my prisoner. Even though you hear things you don't like I better not hear a peep out of you." He had gotten a copy of Winry's divorce papers and he had them in his hand as he threw them to Al "Untie his hand so he can sigh those then he can listen while I take his wife from him the way it should have been in the first place." Greg glared at Edward as he sighed the papers then Al retied his hands tightly.
Walking up the stairs Al turned to Edward "What are you going to do brother?" Edward had a very devious streak going through him at this point and he wasn't going to tell anyone what he was going to do. But he wanted this man to know that Winry was no longer his and that she belonged to someone else.
The next day Edward asked Al to take all the kids to the river and he made sure granny had her afternoon pills. That woman would sleep through an elephant stampede with those pills. After Al and the kids had left he checked on granny and she was passed out cold. Walking into the kitchen where Winry was washing dishes he cleared his throat and she turned around to see him standing there in his sweats with no shirt on. He had a very seductive look on his face as he walked closer to her and held the papers out "He sighed these so now you're free Winry." She smiled at him and took the papers as she stared at him standing there. For a moment it seemed like time had stopped but then a sudden urge came over her looking at him and she threw the papers and rushed forward slamming her lips into his. That was all he needed as he staggered frontwards and pushed her to the wall kissing her deeply and passionately as seventeen years of pinned up passion was released. Their hands were all over each other's bodies as she whispered in his ear between biting his ear lobe "I want you Ed." Smiling a sideways smile he reached under her skirt and pulled her underwear down and as they dropped to the floor she stepped out of them. Then he lifted her legs and put them around his waist as he pinned her to the wall. As he continued ravishing her lips he untied his sweats and let them drop while his hand ventured under her shirt to her breast. Feeling a sense of excitement but fear Winry let out a sigh of pleasure as he entered her with one thrust and took her right there in the kitchen. Holding on for dear life to him she felt as though she were going to explode with passion as he thrust one after the other inside her. Moaning out loud at the feel of her Edward buried his face in her neck thrusting as hard as he could as she let out screams of pleasure that would have woke the whole house if anyone was home.
Greg sat in the basement feeling a sickening feeling in his stomach as he listened to this alchemist claim his wife for his own. The sheer sounds of her moans and screams of pleasure made his heart sink.
Finally with one last thrust Edward spilled his seed inside of her and leaning his head back he kissed her out of breath mouth. Pulling his head back and smiling slightly at her she placed her hands on his cheeks and smiled bringing his lips back to hers. This was what her life was supposed to be like this was the way she was supposed to feel about a man. It was a sheer yearning to be touched by that person and never let them go, to become one with someone and feel that your hearts are connected through some strange invisible thread. He pulled out and sat her on her shaking legs as he reached over and pulled her skirt down then reached down and grabbed his sweats and brought them up.
Holding her was the only thing he was missing in his life and now….Now he had made her his. He bent down and picked up her underwear and smiled as he handed them to her "This was just the trial run for later my love but later you can't be so loud." She blushed and snickered at him as he grabbed her and pulled her to him and pressed his lips firmly against hers and she felt her knees weaken as he leaned his head back "Know this Winry I will make you happy and I will protect you and your boys. I will never raise a hand to you or your children now that your mine." She was speechless at what he had just said and as he turned and left her standing there utterly speechless he descended the basement stairs.
Looking over to Greg he glared at him then his head fell forward and his right fist tightened "Know this, she is mine now and you will leave her and her boys alone." Lifting his head Edward's eyes looked like they were on fire and it made Greg rethink his intentions of revenge on Edward for taking his wife. As Edward walked closer he grinned deviously "If I ever see or hear you've been around her or those boys I will kill you." Greg swallowed hard as Edward turned and walked back up the stairs leaving the guy utterly speechless, wifeless, and childless.
AN: I'm sorry at the end of this I got a sudden devious streak that played out through Edward. LOL!
