Chapter 36: Reunion

(Another Squee chapter! Yays! I love Squee and cuteness like this! o3o)

(also, Ed already explained what happened to Roy. So it isn't mentioned in this chapter)

POV: 3rd

"Damn..." Mustang hissed.

"what is it?" Edward asked.

The two military personnel were walking down the road that lead away from the hospital. Ed was walking on a crutch since his body was still very weak from the lack of nutrition while in the coma.

"I forgot to call Winry and Alphonse to tell them the news." Mustang growled.

"Heh, don't worry about it! I guess they'll be in for a surprise then!" Ed laughed.

"yeah..."

Roy continued to walk alongside the boy, making sure to slow his pace to match Ed's slow limping. Mustang glanced down sadly at his subordinate. the young alchemist still looked terrible. His skin was still pale, but he has been awake for only half a day now, after all.

Roy stared ahead again, wondering what Al and Winry's reactions would be. The thought made the Führer smile in amusement.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Squiggles~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Roy and Edward stood on a hill overlooking the Rockbell residence. Ed sighed and smiled. "I'm home... I can't wait to see Al and Winry again!" He said happily.

The two began to walk towards the house, but the faithful dog, Den, didn't greet their arrival with his familiar barking. 'He must be inside.' Ed thought. 'Maybe he's worried about me too.'

Edward sighed and rang the doorbell, smiling when he heard a single bark from the dog inside, footsteps soon followed just on the other side of the door. They sounded slow and labored, as if the person was finding it hard to put one foot in front of the other.

The door opened to reveal a very depressed Alphonse. The boy's dark blonde hair was messy and his eyes were dull from lack of sleep. Al simply stared strait at Edward for a minute, trying to process what he was seeing. His mind must be slow from less sleep too.

Ed smiled sadly. "You finally get your body back and you still decide to never sleep?" He teased, sadness lacing his voice.

Al blinked, making sure that his eyes weren't deceiving him. "B-Brother?"

"Yep... It's me, Al..." Edward said quietly.

Alphonse's eyes widened immediately and he suddenly threw himself out the doorway and into Ed's arms. The blonde alchemist gasped in surprise and nearly fell over from his brother's weight.

"Brother! Oh, Ed! I can't believe it's really you!" Alphonse sobbed, clutching at Edward's shirt.

"Woah, Al! I just got out of a hospital! I'm not exactly as strong as Armstrong!" Ed managed to gasp before collapsing onto the porch.

The younger brother still clung tightly to Ed as if he might disappear if Al let go for even a moment. "Brother! I thought... I thought I lost you! I thought you were going to die..." Alphonse cried. "Please don't ever leave again!"

Edward returned his brother's hug. "I won't, Al... I won't. I'm sorry for what happened. I'm sorry for making you worry this badly. But I'm here now." He murmured.

*(SQUEEEEEE! x3x so adorable! :3)*

Roy watched the two brothers with a massive grin on his face. If only he had a camera, the guys back at headquarters would never let Ed hear the end of it of they saw this. But Roy wouldn't do that to Ed, not after all that had happened to him.

Mustang heard more footsteps and looked up at the doorway. Winry stood there, staring at Ed and Al in shock.

"Uh... Hi Winry..." Edward said once Al had let go of him.

The blonde mechanic still stood there, gawking at Ed. He scratched the back of his head. This is getting a bit awkward...

"Welcome home..." Winry said after a few moments, smiling warmly.

"Yeah, Home..." Ed murmured.

*(YAY! I'm almost done! In fact, the next chapter is more of an epilogue of sorts. I'm also gonna write a bonus chapter where Mustang and Ed decide to have some fun and prank the other soldiers while they still think Ed's dead/in the coma ;3)*

(See ya later for now!)
