Sappy song Disclaimer:The Song aint mine, it's Mya's
Chapter Eighteen: Fallen
You complete me
Like air and water girl
I need thee
And when I'm in your arms I feel free
Fallen
My heads up in the clouds in love
I'm proud
To you say it loud
Like an accident it happened
Out of nowhere
It just happened
"I'm coming…" I heard Winry's tired voice call from the other side of the door. It instantly made me smile. But I stood there with determined eyes, tensing my fists. Whatever you do don't back out, you coward. She opened the door looking away to someone in the lounge room.
"JUST GO REST IN YOUR ROOM ALRIGHT! I'M GOING BACK TO BED AFTER THIS AND I'M SICK OF YOU RUNNING AROUND AND STEALING PICTURES OF ME AND EDWARD!"
She then turned her head towards me, her eyes still not locking with mine. "Sorry about that…" She sighed. "What do you want?" She then ran her eyes up from my very toes to my face. "Ed?" She whispered with surprise taking a step back. She was in her long white night gown, her hair messed up from sleep. And it was the most beautiful thing I had seen in a long time. I found my determination to win this fight slowly drift away as the heat crept up to my cheeks. I stood there with a sort of sheepish smile on my face as I gazed at her un-knowingly. Suddenly, drops of water fell from my hair and onto my face causing me to flinch slightly.
"EDWARD!" She yelled with anger tensing her fists. "HOW DARE YOU!" I stepped back slightly only to have her grab my arm and bring pull inside violently. I hadn't even said anything yet...
"I'm sorry Winry." I said as soon as she pulled me inside and shut the door with a loud thud.
She turned to me with anger and pointed to the couch. "SIT THERE YOU JERK!" She pushed me down onto the couch and I watched her with admiration as she ran around the house desperately. She then chucked me some towels and sat next to me with a loud grunt of dissaproval.
"I'll wet the couch…" I said hopelessly wrapping the towel around my shoulders. Not to mention I am covered in mud.
"Don't worry about that you idiot!" She sighed, leaning over for my hair to take it out and dry it. "Why the hell are you here?"
"I came to say sorry." I replied softly as her warm stomach came into contact with my soaked black jacket. She removed it and chucked it over to the floor, then removed my singlet shirt and threw it on the floor also. All I did was stare up at her as she did that, causing more anger to erupt from her.
"EDWARD DRY YOURSELF!" She yelled. "If only I had my wrench." She sighed.
I quickly grabbed the towel and wiped it over my chest as she started to rub my hair with the towel in an attempt to dry it. "Honestly you come back here trying to apologize soaking wet?" She asked "Hopeless..." She muttered. "Ill make you something to eat, just stay there."
Fallen
Head over heels
I've fallen
In love with you
I've fallen
And I can't get up
Don't wanna get up
Because of love (Because of your love)
I watched as she walked into the kitchen curiously. I didn't want to wait anymore. So I removed the towel she had carelessly left on my still soaking wet hair and raised myself from the couch. If I don't fix this now I might not have the courage later. I followed her into the kitchen watching her silently as she reheated some rice. My wet hair caused drops of silky water to gently fall down my back as I watched her in some kind of trance, listening to her words in the song. She had always sung in the kitchen. But this time the words seemed so much closer to my heart than I had every thought a song could be.
"Fallen, head over heels I've fallen in love with you I've fallen and I can't get up don't wanna get up because of love." She sang softly.
"That's right." I replied to her song, causing her to turn around with shock. She held the bowl of rice in her hands and glanced at me with fear in her eyes.
"Ed… I thought I said…" She started but before she had the chance to finish I was already talking.
"Is that really how you feel about me Winry?" Her strong eyes of determination slowly withered and shook with fear.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT FROM ME?" She screamed, bursting out into sudden tears.
To let you get away is crazy
so I'm doing what it takes
To make you pledge your love to me
You see cause I'm trying to be a man
For ever and ever
The picture wouldn't be the same
If you weren't standing next to me
Can't you see I'm fallen
I stood there and watched her tense her face at me. "Have you come back to remind me how much I need you!" She yelled angrily. "Why are you doing this Edward? Why? Are you trying to kill me…?" She asked softer, her eyes falling to the ground. "Why are you doing this Edward…? I thought I told you to leave me alone you jerk!"
I tensed my face waiting for my own sadness to subside and took in a deep breath. "Winry, I love you."
You complement me
Not an accessory
You're necessary
You never could speak bad words against me
Your bare with me
Security
Are you here with me
Your my happiness
Cause I'm fallen for you boy
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fallen
I've fallen for you
Fallen
Head over heels for you
So in love with you
Fallen
Love, oh
For you
Fallen
I fell to the ground instantly resting on my knees in front of the woman I loved. She dropped what she was holding and it fell to the ground with a smash, the glass breaking everywhere, the rice spreading. For that second, time froze and I didn't know what was happening to my body. It erupted in violent shakes and trembles. As the water slid down my back from my soaking hair so did it slide down my cheek from my sudden hopelessness.
"I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH YOU!" I yelled, tensing my fists on the ground. I cried desperately looking to the side and anywhere but up at her as the grief and anguish I had held inside came rushing out with my tears. Before I knew it she had also dropped to her knees. She came up to me as fast as she could and finally wrapped her arms around me. Our first contact in too long ice, with fire. I wrapped my arms around her waist instantly crying into her shoulder and gripping her hair tightly.
Touch me
Hold me
Love me
Kiss me
In love with you
Talk to me
Caress me
Play with me
Don't wanna get up
Explore me
Your my everything
"Ed doesn't cry!" She shivered against me with equal desperation in her voice. Our heads were both dug into each others shoulders. I wasn't quite sure if the constant water falling down my back was either the water from my soaked hair or her tears.
"I hate you!" I told her, grabbing fistfuls of her shirt desperately. "What the hell did you do to me?"
"Ed…" She said sadly.
"Just touch me you idiot!" I cried. "Ever since you left I haven't been able to do a single thing! I have been like some stupid man crying out for help with everyone. No-one wanted to be around me, I have been like the living dead stalking the earth. Winry I'm dying without you." I felt her hands run down my back. "Why did you leave me…?" I begged to know. I lifted my head to look into her tear full eyes but quickly dug my head into her chest crying, in desperate need of her comfort. She stroked the back of my head soothingly holding me to her chest.
"What the hell did you do to me Winry…?" I whispered. "What the hell did you do?"
"What did you do to me?" Winry asked her fingers dancing over my back. I could still feel her body shake with her sobs and lifted my head to stare into her blue eyes.
"We are lost aren't we?" I laughed sadly bringing a hand up to her cheek. She gasped slightly and held my hand softly rubbing her cheek against it. "But I finally realised... no matter how lost we are... we will always have eachother. We can't let anything get between that." I told her. For some reason this brought a genuine smile to her beautiful lips.
"Hold me forever Ed, just love me." Shewhispered tenderly tome, closing her eyes at the touch. "Kiss me…" She whispered.
I moved closer to her, softly pressing my lips to hers. The feeling was softer and greater than before as I cherished the taste of her lips under mine. She re-wrapped her arms around my neck as we lost to each other. I held her sides firmly as I kissed her overtaken. This is the feeling I was told about, where you would do anything for that one person. I thought it would be something to doom you, but could it really feel this good?
I felt her heart beat as I pulled away and rested my head on her chest again. Feeling it beat in rhythm with mine constantly… contently.
"We better get you cleaned up." She whispered into my ear. I agreed and let her take my hand and guide me into the lounge room. It was hard for both of us to focus properly on the task being so close to each other, and finally I had dropped the towel to stare at her with wonder as she dried me. She had stripped me down to my boxers and every time our faces so much as crossed each others path we would gaze into each others eyes intensely. So intense I would end up placing a tender kiss on the corner of her lips to feed my desire. The passion of our first moment back together. The house quiet, all to ourselves.
She leaned over me to dry my back off, her neck near my mouth as she dried my hair, and placed a towel over my back to catch the drops of water my hair released. I then grabbed hold of her hips and began kissing her neck softly, travelling down to her elbows.
I felt the towel drop from her hands and she fell against me moaning softly. "Edward if you keep doing this…" She muttered resting on my shoulder. I couldn't find the words inside of me so I just continued to display this over flowing affection for her. "My, this isn't like you." She whispered hoarsely.
"I know." I muttered, see what she does to me? "Careful, do you want me to stop?" I asked her, while moving down to her collarbone. She moaned in response. "Well don't try to convince me this is wrong." I answered, still feeling the coldness of the rain upon me. It was still pouring heavily outside. The day was cold, the kind of day where you turned to something for warmth. The warmth radiating from Winry's body heated me, and once you got a hold of heat on days like this you greedily held onto it.
"Ed…" She whispered with a moan. "He is going to wake up soon and have a coronary if I am not working on is auto-mail." Winry told me.
"Huh?" I lifted my lips from in between her breasts and stared up at her with confusion.
"That man that is obsessed with marriage came back for his auto mail." Winry sighed, looking disappointed at where I had stopped. "Ohh you were just about to…" She sulked. I blushed and looked away her chest still in my face. She crawled off of me and chucked me a towel. "Can you do it yourself?" She winked. I nodded quickly. "Don't think you're off the hook just because you make me melt with one touch! We're talking about this tonight!" Winry said dangerously reminding me of the wrench…which reminded me that I had it.
"Winry" She turned around and I pulled the wrench from out of my pocket and chucked it to her. "You left it in the room." I said while she held it close to her. I admit that she now had that certain spark in her eye again, she must have missed it... what was more important? Was she happy about me returning? Or the stupid wrench so she could just harrass me some more? It didn't matter, and I just found myself staring up at her with a half smile.
"My wrench!" She exclaimed happily. I watched her do her wrench thing and smiled.
"Now Edward, you sitting there on the couch talking to me all day is going to distract me, go kill time or something." She said turning to the bench. I frowned and stood up feeling my pants to see if they had dried yet.
"What do you mean by kill time?" I sighed.
"Don't you have taxes to collect?" She asked already lost to the ritual that was Winry working on an auto-mail.
"Yeah but the rain…" I replied looking outside to the steady downpour of rain. When I had turned back to Winry I caught her glancing at me with a soft smile on her face. "What?" I asked with a blush, looking away.
"Edward… thanks for coming back." With that she turned around and didn't say another word to me for a long part of the day.
