A whole new world chapter 10
Winry shifted uncomfortably in her seat feeling the nurse's eyes on her. She closed her eyes and sighed before turning her head back to face her. "I am his friend, why do you care so much?" She raised an eyebrow at the petite woman sitting behind a desk in front of her. The nurse scoffed "I am only saying this because you do know he's in a relationship right? And if the gentlemen are going to have an adventure then you can fill the role just fine. I myself have a title and sooner or later he shall come to his senses and realize that he needs a respectable woman like myself by his side." She placed a hand over her chest giving her an evil smirk.
Green eyes clashed with blue. Winry was fuming this woman did not just say all this and not expect her to retaliate. "You know what I have been friends with Edward since our infancy you on the other hand probably have only known him for a couple of years. And as for another thing he's no longer in that relationship. And if he to be with someone it's going to be with me and not you! Do you hear me miss 'Oh I speak French and I'm a nurse look at me!'" She mimicked a horrible impression of the brunette. "And as for a title I have one I'm the best Auto mail mechanic in all of Rush Valley!" She said with pride.
Meanwhile inside the doctor's office.
"So…you left Noah and got yourself a fiery one now by the sound of it?" The Doctor chuckled as he began to fix Edwards prosthetic arm. Edward couldn't help but have a deep cherry blush on his face listening to the women behind the door bickering over about him.
"I-It's nothing like that. Noah decided to leave on her own." Edward sighed and jumped listening to WInry yell at the nurse. "I'm sorry about her she shouldn't be yelling like that. I won't bring her with me anymore I promise." Ed apologized feeling a mixture of feelings and one of those was definitely embarrassment.
The older doctor shook his head. "No I apologize for my nurse she shouldn't be asking such personal questions in the first place. That's my job not hers well…by the sound of it that friend of yours likes you very much. Quite frankly I liked Noah but you just never seemed to be happy. I hope with whomever you end up with you will be happy. Anyways what did happen to Noah?" The doctor asked slightly worried. The country wasn't the best at taking in gypsies much less anyone with dark skin.
"I think she fled the country but whether or not she actually made it worries me." Edward used his free hand and ran it through his hair. "Why are woman such complicated people? They…I...I just can't understand them."
"For her own safety I hope she does. There have been rumors that soon everyone who isn't the ideal German will be sent away." The doctor shook his head and took of his glasses cleaning them. "Well you're all done…as for the other thing humans in general are complicated people but it takes someone special to accept the fact that one comes with these complications and love us. That girl outside seems to like you despite the many flaws you have. She herself looks like she could have quite a few just by listening to her. But that's the best advice I can give you. I've been married over forty years and it's not easy. But I love her and she loves me so that's the only thing that matters." He chuckled "Oh to be young, take advantage of it. Because time passes by too fast. All right Mr. Elric you are free to go."
Edward stood there speechless not knowing what to reply to the doctor. He just gulped and nodded. "Yeah…thanks for everything. I'll see you soon Doc." Edward waved and gave him a grin. Opening the door he could see Winry on her feet continuing to argue with the nurse.
"Dammit! All right that's it come on!" Edward scowled walking up to Winry and dragged her out of the building by her arm. "That's quite enough for you already." He scolded. Winry glared at him, "Hey you should have heard her!" WInry protested.
"I did hear her, and I also heard everything you said as well." He returned her scowl. Winry's face turned bright red. "Um you did?" "Yes every last word we'll talk about it later. But this is the last time I'm bringing you with me." He muttered as he continued to pull her along.
