Chapter 13-changes

It had been many more days since the change and still Edward felt uneasy, he felt guilty in his heart knowing that he had done such a terrible thing to her. However Winry didn't return that guilt, she felt so much happier knowing she had Edward for all of eternity.

Edward was sitting quietly in his study, contemplating his next move, he could get rid of the army in the east or he could quietly take out the forces in fayloma. He knew either way he would have to travel, and he knew that certainly Winry would insist on coming, and in turn he would refuse. He sat in silence, pending which route to take, but he didn't want to take either one, his whole self told him no, told him to just stay at home with winry and take care of her as he promised he always would. Edward shook his head violently, 'what the hell is wrong with me?' he thought to himself. He stood up and walked briskly out of his study to the patio and was startled when he saw Winry running outside, without a care in the world, so peaceful, so perfect as if she was unaware of what she was, as if she were still an innocent child , and yet she was too far away. He yearned deeply to run out to her, grab her and hold her closely, but yet again something stopped him, 'see what you do to her Edward, you make her free, you make her so happy, you love her, she loves you, what could be more simple? Why do you hold back?' At that though he rasped in pain and fell to the floor, he instantaniously fell into a deep sleep.

At Edwards scream Winry ran into the house and sprinted to the patio and draped herself over him within a matter of seconds.

"Edward?" She sobbed, desperately trying to wake him up, when that didn't work she checked for a pulse but yet again was unsuccesful. ' Fuck,Edward why aren't you breathing? At that moment Winry had another thought 'Vampires don't need to breathe…thank the lord. But how can I save him? What should I do…wait, his instinct for blood is insanely strong, I can wake him up, I know how to wake him up' Winry quickly but gently pulled off Edwards shirt, she searched dilligently for his bite mark, she traced over his jaw, and his neck, and his back and was surprised when she found it on his chest, surrounded by lean muscle. 'that'a girl Winry… take his blood and then return it to him, his existence is your existence' Winry pressed her lips to his icy cold skin and bit her teeth carefully into his flesh, reopening the wound. She sucked a mouthful of his sweet blood into her mouth and withdrew sharply. She quickly turned her attention to his lips, she placed her lips against his and gently pushed his lips apart, sharing the blood with him. She withdrew once again but this time much slower. Her heart lurched at the sight of his eyes. He woke with a sharp pain in his chest, but he put that to rest as his eyes settled on Winry. Winry Quickly ripped her bandana into many pieces and bound his wound carefully. After that task was completed Winry layed her face gently next to his, yearning for a response. And there they both layed until Emily returned from the supermarket. Emily helped Winry carefully carry Edward to their room and layed him across the bed gingerly. Emily urged Winry to take a bath and wipe the blood off her , and her beautiful and dinstinct features. Emily also offered Winry help, which Winry happily accepted. She carefully helped Winry undress and slid her into the tub, she couldn't help but notice the sleek scar on her neck. She was distraught at the very thought of what this young girl went through to be like her master, she wept silently to herself, and found herself in feeling distress. 'What a poor poor girl, she must really love him, to be willing to give up her life to spend eternity with him….i want to stay with them too, I don't want to die…I want to live forever with my brother and Winry, I want to be a family with them, I want to be just like master, I want to be just like this poor girl. Look at me, wanting to be one of them. God save us all' Emily realized quickly that Winry had drifted into a sleep and carefully lifted her out of the tub and dryed her with a towel. Emily scavenged in all of the Armoires but found no clothes of hers except that she was wearing and the white cotton dress they had first seen her with. Emily proceeded in searching her own closet for a pajama and was reluctant when she found an old pink slipShe pulled it over Winry's head and once it was on her, she layed Winry next to Edward on the bed, 'Sleep well brother, my sister, may your dreams treat you well.' She whispered almost silently to them as she slipped out their door.
