The house was always empty when Edward was away on missions.
Roy found the house was quiet and Edward was rarely quiet. Except, when he was studying or when he was planning something Roy thought with a smile on his face.
Otherwise the house was bustling with noise.
Roy looked down at his glass that was almost empty he watched the ice cubes melt in the glass.
He sighed and looked out the window.
It seemed he forgot how lonely it was without Ed.
Sometimes Roy wished he could send Ed on shorter missions.
Which would be a possibility if Edward weren't so set on finding the philosopher's stone. Of course it made sense why Ed wanted the stone. The younger man wanted to restore his brother's body and his own limbs.
Roy knew all this and yet he wished sometimes that Ed would take a break.
Roy rolled his eyes.
He was sure that conversation would go over well.
A/N: Thanks to everyone who has reviewed so far, it means so much to me. Also as you may have notice I got myself a beta reader. Sushi is wonderful.
