20: Karma & Payback
I don't own FMA and it belongs to its rightful owners anything else belongs to AENR13. Thank you so much for all the followers and favorites and reviews!
POV of Laura Fang
I roll on my other side and pull the other pillow towards me. I smack my mouth and then resume back to sleep. Then I remember that I'm at Eastern. It hits me that the other pillow isn't a pillow. I wake up and Roy's already awake.
"Morning." He greets and I squint.
"Shouldn't you be heading over for work by now?" I yawn and he shakes his head
"Don't really feel like it." He yawns as he scratches his head
"Well go and tell Eliza then." he looks at me funny.
"Who the hell is that?" I give him a "really?" face.
"Your Lieutenant." He cracks up laughing
"That's not her name." My jaw drops.
"So you let me call her Eliza for 10 years?! And let me look an idiot?!" I demand and he nods still laughing that girl ass of his off. "WHY?!" he gets himself under control and replies
"Because it was funny." I frown. The nerve! I draw my legs to my chest and kick that girl's ass of his out of the bed. "YOU SUCK ROY MUSTANG!" I scream and he flies. He stands up and glares at me with those black eyes of his.
"Whatever." He turns to leave out of the room when I call out.
"So you're not going to work today?" I ask to make sure if he is or not. He turns around and replies
"I can call Riza that I'm not gonna go today. I got a bad cough. *fake cough*." He informs me and I laugh.
"Ha okay. Are you going to your living room by any chance?" I ask and he nods. I give him my big puppy dog eyes. "Wanna get me my bag from your couch then? Please?" He smirks shaking his head at me
"Just because you're pretty..." And before I can ask him about what's that supposed to mean, he leaves. I get out of his bed and he comes in with my bag. I open it up and it expands into a tiny duffel bag. I pull out my extra clothes and he gives me a confuse look. "So you're telling me that all of your crap fitted in that tiny thing that originally would only hold a wallet?" He asks and I nod
"Don't underestimate the engineering of women bags." I go and get showered then get ready for the day.
I pull up my boots in his living room as he showers. I lay do and letting my eyes wander. I wonder if Leo has caught on that we're investigating him. And what about all that earlier with Roy? You're so cute? And just because you're pretty? I grab my head and pull myself up. UGH! I don't understand Roy logic! I get up and raid his fridge and it's like no one lives here! I grab some rice balls and chew on it. It has sushi and I hate sushi...
He comes out and sees me eating. "Did you get that from the fridge?" He asks pointing to the rice ball. I nod and he then smirks. "Well Riza's dog got to it the other day, so..." I spit it out into the sink. I glare at him
"Who keeps food that a dog got to in a fridge?!" I demand and he laughs
"Well who raids someone's fridge?" He asks and I point to myself
"I do! And that's nasty. I throw out the food or give it to Hercules once when he gets to it..." I mumble and he gives a confused look.
"Who's that?" I reach into my jacket and pull out a picture of my dog. I hand it over to him and he gives a "oh good heavens." face. I wouldn't blame him; Hercules is huge. He hands it back to me so I put it away and then he starts heading for the door. "Well I'm getting food so you're more than welcome to come. Or you can continue eating that." he calls so I follow him. I catch up to him but I kick his girl's ass of his. He glares at me so I breathe through my teeth and give him "well." face and tell him
"Karma; it'll come and kick you in the ass." he chuckles
"So is that your true name? Karma?" I shrug with some chuckles. We go out and get some ramen at a ramen stand and while he's barely on his 2nd bowl I'm on my 5th. I drink up all the liquid and slam the bowl down. I raise my hand to tell the chef I want another one. Roy face palms me as the chef's making me another bowl. "You know that you're paying for your food right?" he asks and I feel like I literally turned into jelly.
"I am?" he nods and raises the bowl to his mouth and slurps down the ramen. He wipes his mouth and then sticks his tongue out at me.
"Well maybe karma comes and kicks you in the ass but payback won't pay for your food." the chef comes out with my bowl so I shake my hands.
"Can I have the check?" I ask and he brings it out. The bill almost sends me flying out of my chair. I bring out my wallet and pull out my money when I realize I'm short for the last bowl. I slowly lean into Roy's space and I whisper. "Do you have some 50's I can use?" he looks at me.
"Do I look like I'm made of money?" he asks being the cheap ass he is so I black mail him
"I'll tell people how you talk in your sleep." he frowns and gives me the money. "Thank you." we pay up and then we leave. He glances over to me as he puts his hands into his pockets,
"How the hell do you eat so damn much but don't get fat?" I grin and hit my forearms
"I work out everyday. Unlike you Mr. Flame I have to if not I'll get my ass whooped on the field. Maybe that explains why your butt's so damn huge." he shakes his head at me with a hidden smile in it.
"You're so stupid you know that right?" I shrug
"I get that a lot. But no matter. It reminds me when we used to do out ramen raids. I remember how we raided the same ramen shop back home like 3 times and they never told us anything." I laugh and he nods
"Well what are they going to tell a 6 and a 9-year-old that were dirty? Then member how your mom and sister would always be getting on our cases how early we'd leave and how late we get back to our own homes?" I laugh as I remember Lauren and my mom getting mad at me when I would get the house all dirty from Roy's and I's adventures.
"You think our tree house is still there?" he shrugs
"Don't know. I haven't been there in years. Tell you what; we can ask the next week off and we can go. We'll stay for a week so we can make sure we cover everything." I smile and nod
"Sounds good to me." we go over to some other Head Quarter that has more information about the civilians. We both manage to dig up some more but it's like with every new piece we get about Arrow Cash or Leo Anderson, the more it contradicts itself. After a good time of searching, it's getting pretty late and I have to go back to Central. I put some of the files in my bag and he takes me over to the train station. I wave goodbye from my window seat and he shouts out as the train starts pulling away
"Hey! I'm gonna be transferred to Central!" I get my torso out of the window and yell back
"Okay! See you soon!" he waves goodbye until he becomes a blob.
There's some things I'd like to clear up because it was brought to my attention. Yes I know I have mixed up some of the names and again I apologize like I wrote in some earlier author notes. I cannot correct them because I unfortunately do not have access to those documents anymore. And also this fanfic is about the FIRST FullMetal Alchemist. I do not plan to mix any elements of from Brother Hood in here. (Keep in mind that I probably will if I can blend them in together correctly.)
