Chapter 11: Embarrassment Comes to Bite You in the Ass

Riza woke up to a throbbing headache. She got up and walked into the bathroom to get some medicine. Roy stirred from bed but fell back asleep. Riza went to the kitchen and cooked breakfast she brought her soon-to-be husband breakfast in bed. Roy yawned and grabbed his plate and ate some warm fluffy pancakes with butter and syrup. Roy tossed Black Hayate a piece of bacon, who jumped and snapped it out of the air and curled up one more at the foot of the bed.

Riza quietly ate her food and took Roy's plate and washed the dishes in the sink. Roy said from their bedroom, "What happened last night?" "We were at the ball and we danced and then we all started to drink…a lot," replied Riza. "Maybe the others remember more," said Roy. "Maybe," replied Riza. Riza quickly took a shower, and got dressed in her uniform. Roy hopped walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist while Riza was making their bed.

Roy walked into the closet and a few minutes later came out in his military garb; Roy kissed Riza and put on his hat and they fed and watered Black Hayate and were off to work. A car was ready to pick them up outside to drive them to Central HQ. Riza and Roy sat silently during the ride and opened their doors as they arrived at their destination. Roy and Riza walked through the front doors and the soldiers that passed them whispered and giggled.

Roy finally reached his office where his subordinates were waiting, and they had smug grins on their faces and even Rebecca was giving Riza a mischievous look. Havoc said, "Last night was fun wasn't it Roy," and he topped it off with a smirk. "What's so funny," Roy askd Fuery. "N-Nothing Fuhrer Mustang," replied Fuery. "I don't remember what happened last night do you guys remember," asked Riza. "Oh we remember we all got really drunk do you really want to know the rest," replied Havoc. "Of course," said Roy.

Fuery placed a recorder on the table and a recording started to play, grunts and groans could be heard where suppressed giggles would be head from time to time and Roy's voice could be heard in the background "I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt." A few minutes later a desk could be heard shattering. "Next desk," said Roy in the recording. A door could be heard opening and Riza could be heard cursing at Havoc.

By the end of the recording, Roy and Riza's faces were flushed bright red with embarrassment. Havoc and Rebecca were laughing so hard they fell out of their seats. Sheska came in with stacks of paperwork handing out files and papers to each individual person. She winked at Fuery who flushed red as she handed him the smallest portion of the stack.

Havoc glared at Sheska as she handed him a huge stack. She smiled curtly at Havoc and walked away. Rebecca smirked at Havoc and started to fill out paperwork. Roy signed some requests for the reconstruction of Ishvalan cities in Ishvala. Riza was talking at the phone and filling out stacks of paperwork. Ed walked in in his military uniform holding some files and sat down at his desk to the left of the Fuhrer's.

Ling and Lan Fan sat idly at a small desk playing chess. Alphonse and Mei were practicing alkahestry in the drill yard while some soldiers relived their boredom watching their intense sparring. "I wonder what happened to those Sins," whispered Riza to Roy. "Probably biding their time," replied Roy. "I hope so," said Riza. Grumman sat in a chair watching Al and Mei train while fanning himself. He called out to them, "I saw you two dancing at the ball, that's how it starts young 'uns," he teased. Al and Mei flushed scarlet red and Grumman laughed his famous laugh, hoohoho.
