Roy and Ed had different ideas on many things. How to do paperwork, how to operate on missions and how to act just to name a few. Sufficient to say, Roy and Ed had many differences and rarely agreed on anything.
But, on occasion, when they had to work together, things just worked out. Meaning they completed the mission with minimal damage. Which was a feat inside itself.
So, when First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye got a memo for a mission that could be potentially dangerous, she decided that Colonel Mustang and Major Elric should do it. The rest of the unit had their fingers crossed that the mission would be successful.
So far, the mission had been a success and Ed was sure the rest of the unit was hoping it would stay that way. However, more often than not it didn't play out well and it only took one comment from either party to screw it up.
Most of the time it was Roy since annoying Ed seemed to be a hobby of his or a specialty at least. Much to Ed's annoyance of course but, then again, Ed seemed to get annoyed very easily.
The lady in charge nodded and waved Colonel Mustang into the area he was headed into. Ed followed after getting past some security guards by showing his I.D.
He started to walk by the woman but she stopped him, which confused him.
"Mr. Elric, you can't go into that area. It's highly classify," The woman explained, at Edward's confused expression.
Edward blinked and tried to explain that he needed to follow Mustang get through. "Um…look Miss, I really need to get throu-" Ed started.
Roy's voice startled Ed. "He's with me Ashley," the taller man explained to the woman.
The woman nodded and gave a knowing smile at the two of them.
Ed knew what Ashley must be thinking and decided she had to be told the truth.
"No, you have the wrong idea. Him and me?" Ed said, as he gestured to Roy, then himself. "Were not together like that," Ed finished.
Two gloved hands were on his shoulders after the words left his mouth.
"Let's go Muffin" Roy said, dragging Ed away from Ashley as Ed made a tiny noise.
"Don't forget to invite me to the wedding!" Ashley called out to the two men.
Ed meant to tell Ashley that there would be no wedding at all. Except that when he open his mouth to do so, Roy covered his mouth with Ed's so that all that came out was a muffled protest.
After the two men separated a bunch of aw's could be heard as Roy dragged a dazed Ed away.
Ashley turned to her girlfriends as all three girls gushed about the two of them.
"They're so cute together!" The brunette said.
"I know it's so sweet that they love each other." The redhead exclaimed.
Ashley smiled before replying, "I so hope that they get to be together forever."
The other two girls nodded in agreement.
The redhead perked up. "Maybe they'll get married and will get invites!" She gushed as the other girls nodded in agreement.
This continued until their boss came along and told them bluntly that he didn't pay them to sit around and chat all the day. The girls nodded and complied. Ashley couldn't help but think that maybe if they found Mr. Tsunami a boyfriend he wouldn't be so cranky.
When Ed's normal thought process returned, he was furious. To put it simply, he was furious. He walked sulkily beside Roy. When he moved forward, Roy pulled an arm around his waist to slow him down. When he walk behind, Roy wrapped an arm around his shoulders to speed him up. At least that was what Ed thought he was doing.
It didn't help Ed's anger any when all the female workers could do was talk about how cute couple they made and how they should get married.
Ed gritted his teeth as he walked by.
There wasn't go to be any wedding, Ed thought, grumbling slightly. But maybe there was going to be a funeral. Definitely a funeral, Ed thought, glancing at Roy.
Roy smirked.
Ed glared.
Definitely a funeral.
