Chapter 14

Onyx orbs opened slowly, the sunlight hurting his eyes. With a groan he rolled onto his side hiding his face in the pillow.

He felt himself dozing again but jumped with he heard a drawer open. Opening his eyes completely he realized, it was still dark…what was the light that ht his eyes?

Looking over he saw a small blonde bent over digging through a drawer. Turning he looked to the clock. 3:30 in the morning. 'What the hell is he doing?' Roy thought.

Sitting up Roy looked to the blonde, "Edward?" Roy asked drowsily.

Standing up straight Ed dropped several articles of cloths back into the drawer, "Roy? You're awake."

"Hardly…What are you doing?" Roy asked.

"Um…well…I was…" Ed said nervously looking from Roy to the drawer and scratching his head.

Roy looked at Ed and shook off the odd feeling that suddenly formed over him, "Come back to bed."

Ed looked at Roy for a minute then walked over laying with Roy.

Roy reached over pulling Edward closer to his body and kissed the back of his neck, "Just go back to sleep Ed."

Ed sighed but there was no other response.

"I love you Edward." Roy said.

Ed bit his lip and sighed again, "I wish you didn't."

"What? Why?" Roy asked propping himself up on an elbow.

"I can't stay." Ed mumbled before crawling out of bed.

Roy sat up and looked to Ed whom was back at the dresser, "Why?"

"I just can't do this anymore. If it's not one thing it's the other. And Davidson knows and just for that he is sending you to the front line! I know my timing is bad…but I can't wait anymore." Ed explained a tear rolling down his face only to fall to the floor.

"Edward don't!" Roy said jumping up and rushing over grabbing Ed's arms at the elbow, "Don't leave me again. We can work something out."

Ed shook his head and looked down, his long bangs hiding his eyes, "Shut up Roy…"

"But Ed-" Roy started but was cut off.

"Roy don't you understand?" Ed snapped looking up, "I don't love you anymore!"

Roy stared dumbfounded at Ed. Edward let a shaky sigh leave his lips. Roy's hands slipped from Ed's arms and he glared into Ed's eyes clenching his fists, "Then why the hell is it so fucking hard for you to let go?"

"Why is it so hard for you to except that this was nothing? It's wrong in everyway! It's all wrong."

Roy's anger flared to rage, memories of sleepless nights and words of love being exchanged flashed before him. Roy's fist collided with Ed's jaw, "Nothing! Nothing!" Roy yelled then paused, "…nothing…"

Ed stared in horror at Roy.

"Whatever Ed. I saved your damned life you can go off and ruin the rest of mine!" Roy snapped turning back to his bed.

Ed turned back to the dresser reaching for his cigarettes at the top of it and pulling one out and lit it before picking up some cloths.

Roy put his head in his hands fighting back a sob.

Ed stood up straight with a new air around him, "Why would I stay here with you? You're selfish. And after what just happened," Ed said as he walked to the bedroom door and stopped before taking a drag, "you proved to be violent." Ed said as he turned leaving only a puff of smoke lingering in the air.

Roy sat in silence until he heard the door open and close. Dropping his hands Roy looked at the open door, glare hard on his face, "I'll kick his ass." Roy said clenching his fists.


Sitting up straight in the bed Roy looked to Ed whom was sitting up slowly, "What is it Roy?"

Roy turned wrapping his arms around Ed, "I'll never hurt you Edward. Never on purpose. I love you."

Ed blinked a few times and returned Roy's embrace, "I love you too. Roy what's wrong?"

Roy didn't reply. His shoulders were trembling. Ed looked to Roy, "Nightmare?"

Roy only nodded. Ed hugged Roy tighter then pulled away, "It'll be fine Roy."

"These damned nightmares make me so pathetic…I haven't had one since you started sleeping in here again." Roy said rubbing his face.

"Don't know what triggered it?" Ed asked.

"I don't know…I'd never…" Roy trailed off.

"Well…do you want to talk about it?" Ed offered.

"Not really." Roy sighed and looked to Ed.

"If your sure…" Ed looked to the clock, "It's 3:30 in the morning, let just go back to sleep."

Roy looked to the clock and stared at it before a smaller hand touched his arm, "Come on Roy…lets lay down." Ed said quietly.

Roy laid back down and turned on his side facing Edward and pulled him close, "You're not going to leave me again are you?"

Ed's eyes darted up to Roy's, "No. Not unless you want me to."

"No! I don't." Roy sighed and put his forehead to Ed's, "You know I'd never hurt you on purpose right?"

Ed looked at Roy with a confused expression, "I know…Roy where is this coming from? That dream?"

Roy was silent for a moment, "I hit you in it." Roy said.

Ed was slightly taken aback, "Oh…well hell Roy I know you wouldn't do that unless it was to knock some sense into me." Ed smiled lightly.

"I don't know that I could do that anymore Edward." Roy said.

"Sure you could," Ed smiled, "Only if I really needed it…"

Roy simply smiled, "I love you."

Ed smiled back and placed a kiss on Roy's lips, "I love you too, go to sleep."

Roy sighed and lay there watching Ed. Ed sighed and curled up to Roy, nuzzling his jaw line then closed his eyes.

"That was nothing compared to other's I've had." Roy said his voice holding no emotion.

"Roy, I know you, you wouldn't hit me. Honestly, if you did I wouldn't leave you." Ed said looking up at Roy.

"If I ever hit you I want you to leave for your own good. Beat the shit out of me first. I don't want to be able to see straight or stand on my own two feet after that." Roy said.

"Well it's not going to happen, just go to sleep." Ed said dropping his head.

Roy put his chin ontop of Edward's head and closed his eyes. Ed feel to sleep soon after but Roy lie awake for a while before falling back into a light sleep.


"Mustang…" Riza said from the doorway of his office.

"Yes Hawkeye?" Roy asked.

"Davidson wants to see you." She said searching Roy's face.

Roy looked up from his work, "When?"

"Now, sir." She said.

"Alright…Where did Edward run off to?" Roy asked before standing.

"He went into town." Riza said opening the door for Roy, "Good luck."

Roy nodded at her and made his way to Davidson's office.

"Sir, you called for me?" Roy asked saluting.

"Sit down Mustang." Davidson said his tone low.

Roy took a seat and looked at Davidson. "General Roy Mustang…The Flame Alchemist…hero of the Ishbalain War. Hard to believe that you, a supposed womanizer, is a fucking faggot."

Roy looked at Davidson…not in surprise, fear, but purely rage, but it din' show on his features.
