I'm back! Lol, I know you have probably had enough by now but I'm back! I don't really like writing happy family stories, so there probably won't be too many more chapters on this. But since they have been through so much, I figured... hey, why not make her pregnant! Lol, I'm glad most of you seem to like the idea.

Drama is my middle name if you haven't figured out :P

Chapter Thirty: Infidelity

So it was a brand new day, so I hadgotten a good night's sleep, so Winry and I were getting along fine till yesterday afternoon,but I couldn't bring myself to get out of bed. Why? Because I had this feeling in the pit of my stomach, a feeling that involved Winry.

"Brother…?" Al pushed the door open slowly, causing it to creak. He observed me tossing and turning in the bed. I was wide awake, but I refused to get up. "I just came to check on you… this isn't like you." Al said with worry. I grunted.

"Is Winry up?" I asked, opening one eye to glance at my little brother in the doorway.

"Yes…" He replied shakily.

"Is she going to talk to me?" Iinquired raising my eyebrow. No way am I getting out of bed, if I have to put up with her crap again.

Al brought his hands together and began to fiddle mindlessly. "Well… I don't know… maybe you should come say good morning."

"If you can't tell me that I will definitely get a good morning kiss then I am not getting up." I sulked digging my head into the pillow. "She can go kiss her stupid auto-mails."

"I'll tell her you said that." Al giggled.

"No tell her to come here!" I argued as Al shut the door softly behind him. "I bet he won't…" I mumbled to myself.

After a few minutes, my door was opened again. I sighed into the pillow and raised my arm in the air. "Go away Al, I'm not getting up, I'm depressed."

"My, my, this isn't like you."

I had trouble determining if that was different to Al's voice since it still sounded slightly womanly, but turned my head anyway. Winry stood there with an angry look on her face.

"If you're going to bludge all day…!" She raised her wrench and moved it closer to my sleepy form.

"Ah! What the hell Winry?" I asked backing away. "You sleep past 12 every day! What the hell are you doing up today?" I said squinting slightly. "Suspicious."

"I feel sick okay!" She replied angrily, as if I had offended her in some way. Don't you sleep when you're sick?

"So I guess I don't get a kiss huh? Or even a hug? You're stingy Winry."

"That's right you're bloody not getting a kiss you jerk! And for that I'm not going to talk to you!" She scoffed and walked out the room. This troubled me deeply. It wasn't like all our other fights. In our other fights I could be confident that she would be hanging off me at the end of it, due to the lust in her eyes. But last night I had seen something different, disappointment, regret. She really was upset with me, and I had no idea why.

"Aww man this is really getting me down." I said slightly sarcastically as I got up from the bed clumsily, knocking myself into a wall in the process of leaving the room. "What the hell am I supposed to do today Winry? I thought we could all go down to the river or something." I asked scratching my stomach with a slight yawn. Ignore her mood, and she will get over it, number one trick. However… silence. I turned my attention to Al with a confused look. "Al…?"

He sighed and scratched his head. "I don't think today is the best brother." He glanced over towards Winry cautiously. Is he trying to keep us apart? Was she blackmailing him or something? THIS IS UNFAIR!

"Great…" I muttered. Winry was tapping her fingers mindlessly on the bench. Okay so she was busy… some guy was coming to get this leg docked on today… but she was almost finished I mean… why? "I'm bored." I was trying to be annoying on purpose, just to gain a reaction from Winry, but it wasn't working. Instead I watched her tense and bite her tongue. "Al, amuse me."

"Brother… can't you just relax."

"Can't Winry just relax?" I spat in reply.

"If I hear one more word from your selfish arse…" Winry said in a mono-tone. This scared me, nothing in her voice to hint any type of strong feeling towards me; even if it was anger… it was nice to know that I could trigger that in her. According to her voice I was doing nothing to her emotions.

"So now I am selfish? I would appreciate it if you could be woman enough and tell me what the fuck is going on! You're the only selfish one!"

Winry tensed and turned back to her automail placing down her wrench.

"Brother…"

"Winry tell me! This is freaking killing me, what the hell have I done wrong?" I yelled watching her walk to her room. She slammed the door behind her, which onlyresulted in me sighing heavily. "I swear if she doesn't tell me soon I am going to have a mental breakdown."

"Maybe you should try talk to her brother, not yell at her, add some romantic stuff in you know?" Al tried to start.

I scratched my head. "Romantic stuff… aww man…"

"You like being romantic towards her, look you're blushing!" Al grinned. Because it makes her happy…

"I am such a girl." I muttered under my breath. "But I am not good at all that stuff you know, last time I tried to be romantic Winry just laughed at me. She patted me on the head and told me to be myself… I was being myself!"

"What did you do?" Al asked with widened eyes. "I can't imagine you being romantic."

"Well I, mmm, put on some music and… tried to dance with her." I coughed, with a large grin on my face. Al just screwed his face up. "Well she wanted me to!" I defended.

"Maybe you should just go for your true approach; Winry told me she is a sucker when you get all Edward like." Al winked.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Use your head; aren't you supposed to be a genius?" Al rolled his eyes.

"I, Edward Elric, am always to sexy to resist!" I bowed with a slight laugh but soon sobered. "But… why is she so upset with me?" I stared away slightly before Al pulled my hair out.

"She likes your hair out."

"Huh?"

"And here, mess it up, about." Al ran his fingers through my hair at an amazing speed and gave me a satisfied thumbs up.

"W-ww-what the?" I asked him, slightly scared.

"And mmmm here!" He grabbed a rose of the nearby table and shoved it in my mouth.

"Al?" I tried to mutter with the rose in my mouth. I took it out and held it in my hand. "This is absurd, how can she like my hair out and all knotted." I asked picking up my locks to examine the mess he had made.

"Well… that was kinda a private conversation about you're…" Al sniffed slightly. "Sex life." He coughed, and quickly looked away.

For some reason this didn't bother me. Instead I just blushed and looked away. "Aww man Winry is such a girl!" I whined. "And so are you! What are you? Her gossip buddy? What did she tell you?" I squinted slightly and moved closer to examine his suspicious face.

"She just wanted someone to talk to! She says that all the girls like sensitive guys like me." Al grinned.

I sighed. It was true. Girls flocked to Al since I was little. "Man."

"Don't worry, she definitely wasn't complaining… just go in there and do what um she likes… I guess." Al once again gave me the thumbs up then plopped himself back down on the couch.

"Then what the hell is with the rose?" I asked.

"She said she always wanted to see you do that." Al laughed.

"…the hell…?" I decided to push their gossip sessions to the back of my mind and glanced toward the door. "Wish me good luck." I said to no-one in particular.

I knocked on the door only to be yelled at by Winry.

"Just let me in Winry…" I cried. I tried the door but realised it was locked. Forgive me. I clapped my hands together holding the rose in my mouth for the meantime and instantly disabled the lock. I crept in and shut the door behind me, fixing the damage I had done.

I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around the small woman on the bed, shoving the rose in her face. "For you."

"I should have known that you would use alchemy, you criminal."

"Ah but now you're alone in a room with me, what oh what can happen?" I grinned, placing the red rose into her hand.

"A rose isn't going to change anything." Winry said stubbornly.

"Mmm then maybe a…" I leaned over slightly, so I was able to take her lips from over her shoulder. I wrapped my arms around her waist as I kissed her difficultly from the side. She didn't pull away much to my happiness, and grabbed a fist full of my hair. She turned her body around to face me with a grin on her face.

"As much as I would like to continue, I think I'll settle for…" She slapped me hard across the face which resulted in my whining like a baby. Don't yell at her.

"Winry, what the hell?"

"You're a player!" She shouted. But it's okay for her to shout at me?

My eyes widened before I dropped my jaw with surprise. "Rewind?" I coughed.

"I know you are cheating on me!"

"W-what? The… hell… are you talking about? Hahaha you're joking around right?" I was seriously joking around to hide my own hurt and shock over the statement.

"Jerk! And you think you can just come in here and win me over with a kiss." I looked down at her intensely. My god she was serious. She began to blush as she looked up at me, but the intensity she saw in my eyes was not me playing romance with her; it was me about to burst into tears.

"You're joking around right?" She looked away and scratched her arm slightly. "Where the hell did you get that idea? I knew you were paranoid but Winry that's stupid! Gah! Why would I cheat on you? You're my everything; I can't survive a day without you! I'm a jerk sometimes, sorry! I'll change if you just talk to me about this… the hell? You can't just pick some random thing out of the air like that, especially something like me mucking around with other girls. Winry that's a serious accusation that could kill our relationship, do you realise that?" ARGGGH! Frustrating! How the hell could I even think about cheating on her? It was physically and emotionally impossible. I am with her every god damn hour of the day. What is she suggesting?

She looked away from me. I saw the flash of guilt in her eyes. "I don't care." She replied bluntly. Looking away… I sunk my head and rose from the bed.

"You don't care huh?" I said in a morbid tone. I laughed slightly, the depressed way. "You don't care… what the hell am I here for?" With that I turned to leave the room. Winry was shaking uncontrollably with tears. What was she crying for? I was the one who wanted to break down.

I shut the door behind me, trying desperately to hold in my tears. I am not going to cry over a girl who doesn't care about me. I looked up at Al desperately who had grabbed hold of my shoulders in an attempt to shake me back to reality.

"Brother get a hold on yourself!"

I laughed slightly and sunk my head again. "It's over."

"What's over?" He said with panic.

"Us." I replied, looking away with a slight laugh.

"No brother! Go back in there! Don't give up." Al said sternly.

"Look Al! She thinks I'm cheating on her! What's the point of staying with her if she doesn't trust me?" I replied flatly. "We're leaving."

"No brother!" Al replied, looking at something over my shoulder. Oh so Winry is hearing this whole thing? I turned my head slightly to see her leaning against the wall, partly hiding her face with shame. "I won't leave Winry."

"Fine, I'm leaving then. Since Winry doesn't care! I'll just take my leave." I needed to think, kill a few people perhaps. I headed for the room despite the fact Winry was blocking the doorway. "Move Winry!" I said flatly, pushing her out of the way gently. I grabbed my own suitcase and began packing, furious, angry, terrible sorrow in every item I packed.

"Ed don't leave me!" Winry cried jumping onto my back.

"Get off me! You want to ignore me and treat me like some piece of crap, yet you want me to stay? Look Al is staying with you." I trailed off with a gentler tone than when I had started, due to her tears falling down my neck.

"Ed…"

"Winry, I need to think. You just broke my heart." I said with some difficulty. I felt my chest wrench and began packing to prevent the tears that were creeping up on me, ever so steadily.

I finished packing with some trouble due to the fact Winry was hanging off me and finally pried her away. "Goodbye."

"Is that all you're going to say to me?" She screamed from her bedroom door, as I gathered some stuff from the lounge room. "I didn't mean it Edward! I love you! Don't leave me."

"Winry why did you tell him that? Is it just an excuse… you don't think he is cheating on you!" Al suddenly spoke up. However none of their pleas fazed me and I headed to walk out the door. 'That's something stupid to say Winry."

"FINE YOU JERK, LEAVE ME HERE ALL ALONE! I'LL RAISE HER ON MY OWN!" With that I heard the bedroom door slam and turned my head ever so slowly to see Al standing there with a pained face.

"What?" I asked with a slight gasp, dropping my suitcase instantly. "What does she mean raise 'her' on her own?" My eyes widened as I glanced at Al, his reaction wasn't reassuring.

"Brother, Winry's pregnant."
