A/N: Hola! Sorry about the cliffy. And I'm gonna go ahead and appoligize for this one because 1.) it's rediculously short. 2.) it's really, really broken up, but I changed view points and wanted to make that clear so I'm sorry if it's distracting and 3.) it's another cliffhanger. I hope you like it anyway.
Thank you to VadMustang, Fluffy's fangirls, Dark Chocolate Alchemist, and ed'sgirl10310 for reviewing. And to VadMustang, I hope your surgery went well and that it was nothing major. Hope you have a quick and complete recovery.
Roy
Quickly Roy unlocked the door and allowed Ed to precede him into the house. The small blonde did not need any guidance here. Roy followed him to the living room and joined him on the couch. It had been his intention to finish up some of his paperwork before helping the blonde cook dinner and he figured he may as well get started. Sighing he opened his briefcase only to find that in his haste he had grabbed the wrong file. The file he needed was still in his desk draw back at headquarters.
Glancing up at the clock he saw that it was only a half past six, forty-five minutes before Ed usually started on dinner. That gave him more than enough time to go back and switch the files. He would tell Ed about the break out when he got back so that the small blonde wouldn't worry.
"Ed," Roy started. He had gathered his papers and shoes and made his way to the door. "I just need to run back to the office and get some papers."
After all, he would be there and back in fifteen minutes. What could happen?
Ed
Ed heard the door close and rose to follow. He would have to be careful, he hadn't navigated the city without Roy guiding him since he was blinded. But what could go wrong? He could always pick out Roy's footsteps without any difficulty.
Roy
Step, step, step, look left, look right, step, step, step, what was that? Why couldn't he have just left it be like he usually would? Why did he have to be motivated? And why now of all times? This was a terrible idea.
Roy sighed heavily. Five minutes and he would be at the office. Two more and he would have his papers. Then seven more minutes and he would be home again. He glanced around again and thought he saw someone move in the shadows. Shaking his head he dismissed it and continued on.
Ed
This was a terrible idea. Utterly stupid. Ed wondered just what he had been thinking when he had decided to follow Roy. He had lost the dark-eyed man almost as soon as he had left the house. Now he was lost. He had the feeling he was wondering in circles and worse than that was the creeping suspicion that someone was following him.
Roy
At last Roy had his papers and was headed home. Quickly. Scar had been spotted in the in the area and he didn't want to spent a moment more away from Ed than he absolutely had to. Not to mention he still had that feeling of dread. Suddenly he saw something that brought him back from his thoughts.
A/N: Yeah, cliffy. The next chapter will probably be the last. Almost there!
