Right, so this could be posted as a separate one shot in and of itself, but since I have 3, can you believe it 3! Reviews on the last chapter, (which is more than I usually get breaking into a new category,) I will just post it up as a separate chapter. It is pretty short, so that also saves space.
Disclaimer: I do not own Full Metal Alchemist, (unfortunately) or the song that was written by Green Day. I however, do not want to own the song, because I would then have to come up with more, and they can sing and rhyme a lot better than I can.
Oh, by the way it's in Ed's point of view.
Chapter 2: Whatsername
Thought I ran into you down on the street,
I thought I saw Winry the other day. I was on the way to work when I saw a girl with blond hair and blue eyes walking down the street. She yelled my name, and ran toward me, so happy to see me. I gave her a hug; everything was going to be all right.
Then it turned out to only be a dream,
The train was coming in. I could hear it whistle as it pulled into the station.
"Let's leave," I suggested to Winry.
"Open your eyes, Ed," she answered me, "We can't."
I open my eyes and there were the walls of my bedroom.
I made a point to burn all the photographs,
She went away and I took a different path,
I can remember the face,
But I can't recall the name,
Now I wonder just how Whatsername has been.
There was no Winry, just my room. The ashes in the ashtray brought back memories. Al, Winry, and I, playing in our memories, just memories. However, I could not remember them clearly. They were leaking away like water through a sieve.
Seems that she disappeared without a trace,
Did she ever marry old what's his face?
All I did was open my eyes and she was gone. Is this how my lives suppose to be? Torn apart by different worlds, not knowing anything about those I love. Did Al ever tell Winry he loved her?

Sometimes I hope he did. Then at least he can be happy. Sometimes, I desperately wish he did not. Then, when I get back home, Winry can be mine, all mine, no one else's. I do not have to share her. Knowing my life though, I would get back, and she would be taken away. Once again, I would be lost.
Remember,
Whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
Remember,
Whatever,
It seems like forever ago,
Maybe if I pretend that I do not care, the memories will stop seeping away. It was long ago, in this world. However, I pretend to the world that I do not care, but inside, I cannot fool myself. I will always love Winry, love Al, and miss them all. Sometimes I wish that I had never gone to get our bodies back.
The regrets are useless in my mind,
She's in my head,
I must confess, the regrets are useless in my mind,
She's in my head,
I can blame it on whatever I want, but in the end, it is still my fault, I cannot help it.
From so long ago and in the darkest night,
If my memory serves me right,
I'll never turn back time,
Forgetting you, but not the time.
I can remember so much, but yet so little at the same time. Unfortunately, even alchemists cannot reverse time so to undo the mistakes of the past. I have to get back; I have to do something.
But what?
Very short. Oh well. So now I left something if I want to continue later. Please Review!
