Confession

"I love you, Riza." The words felt suprisingly unfamiliar on his lips, as if he had never said them before.

Roy could swear that he saw a flicker of mixed surprise and joy on Riza's face before she glared at him coldly.

"Sir, please be reminded that you are working, do not practise your confessing skills when you should be doing paperwork," she said, her voice emotionless.

"That wasn't just any normal confession, that was a confess--" His protest was cut off by the cocking sound of Riza's gun.

"I am not interested in knowing what kind of confession that was, sir. I am only interested in when you will get your paperwork done at this rate." Riza's voice was as hard as steel.

Roy was exasperated. All the time and effort he had spent on gathering all the courage he had was worthless. Wait, maybe not. He just could not forget how Riza looked before she had returned to her usual stern self.

Maybe his confession had not been wasted.

He remained hopeful.

A/N: I originally wanted to do Repentance, I really did, but after spending the whole day thinking about it, I still could not come up with anything. As I am really desperate, I had to do Confession instead. There's only an hour before I have to go to sleep, and I promised my dear readers that I would update daily, so I just did Confession. It's a lot easier, after I switched to Confession, I only spent 10 minutes on this drabble. Yeah, I did drabbles #22 - #25 before I did this one, because Repentance was just too hard.
