Red Lace:

Sara would later blame it on curiosity but even she couldn't deny that seeing those high school girls at the fair had triggered something. Making sure no one was upstairs she quietly snuck into her parent's room. It wasn't fair that her Mom was out of town, especially when she had some serious questions to ask her. Images of those girls laughing made her cheeks heat up again in anger as she recounted their taunting remarks. Sara was not a little girl and she was going to prove it.

Fishing through the drawers she emerged with a rather fancy garment and gulped. The red lace caught her off guard. Sara knew her Mom wasn't a true tomboy but this... this was not what she had expected at all. Dropping it quickly she heaved out a sigh of frustration, what was she doing sifting through her Mom's drawers? It wasn't like she could wear these anyways. The Elric girl let that thought sink in; would she always be this silly young girl or did her Mom start off flat chested too?

Looking back down she picked out the bra again and against her better judgement tried it on. It felt awkward and entirely unsuited to her absent chest but Sara couldn't help but imagine what it might look like if she did fit in it. Turning sideways the young girl tried to admire the imaginary reflection in the mirror. Her mouth twitched up in a coy smile as she thought of those stupid high school girls reactions when she did finally grow out of her gawky, preteen body.

"Oh my god."

Sara spun around in horror.

Eddy was standing in the hallway his mouth hanging open in surprise, but it was his best friend Ian who had broken the silence.

It came on so quickly Sara had no idea where it came from but she did know that the books on top of the dresser were now in the hallway and those two boys were both cradling their heads in their hands.

"I swear if either of you say anything I'm going to find where Mom keeps her spare toolbox and you're going to beg me to make you forget you ever saw anything."

What troubled Eddy more than seeing his sister with his Mom's bra on or even being beamed in the head was the look on Ian's face when he said. "God I hope your sister takes after your Mom."

Needless to say Ian left the Elric house with a pounding head and a clear understanding that some thoughts are better left unsaid.
