Disclaimer: I don't own the characters, only the plot.
Warning: Besides Alchemist X's bad grammar, I think Envy is out of Character for this chapter… and that's it!
Chapter Eight:
"O'Chibi-chan!" Envy screamed as he burst into the hospital. All the people in the waiting area stared at him, and a near by nurse, handling the check-in- desk glared at him and made a sharp hissing "Sshhh…"
Envy glared back at her, while Roy sighed and calmly walked up to the desk. "Please forgive my… friend. We're here to see Edward Elric." He stated giving the nurse a dazzling smile after his apology.
The nurses face flashed red, and she chuckled embarrassed, "OH… of course…" she picked up some papers and fanned herself, "But Mister Elric is currently in ER. He won't be out till' way past visitor hours." Roy heard Envy suck in a sharp breath of air as he whispered, "ER?" as if he'd never heard the term before.
Roy sighed, and disappointment flashed across his face when the nurse added a bit of information, "There is…" she paused and whispered into Roy's ear while pointing into a small corner of the waiting room. "A giant suit of armor, that came in with the boy. Ask him if you have any questions…"
'Al…" Roy thought, and thanked the lady.
He turned back to see a dazed Envy, "Come on Homunculi, Alphonse is already here…" Roy stated. Envy shook his head and for once, he was quiet as he followed Roy.
"Alphonse?" Roy questioned and the suit of armors head jerked up at the sound of his name. "Colonel!" the youngest Elric exclaimed, "I'm so glad you made it!"
"Yes…" Roy paused, "I came as soon as I heard, mind telling me what happened?" he wondered.
"I can't say much but…" Alphonse's voice trailed down when he noticed the other guest to visit his brother. "YOU!" he shouted pointing at Envy. "What are YOU doing here?" he asked.
Envy and Roy flashed each other confused looks, "What are you talking about Alphonse, you know about Envy and Ed… right?" Roy asked. Envy eagerly nodded his head from behind the Colonel.
"Oh, of course I know about them, and now I'm kicking my self for not stopping it!" Alphonse shouted, Roy was taken back. He had never seen the boy get so angry, before the Colonel could ask, 'why?' Alphonse unknowing answered his question, "Its HIS fault brother's here, Colonel! ITS HIS FAULT!"
"Alphonse what are you…?"
But Al quickly cut the older man off, "The other Homunculi! The women with the nails, and man with the acid mouth! They did this to brother! And I'm willing to bet HE had something to do with it!"
'Lust… and Gluttony?' Envy thought, slowly the pieces were falling into place and Envy was starting to figure out what was going on. He gasped silently while Al and Roy shouted at each other. 'The plan… They found out it was a dud, now…' he paused, 'look what happened, oh crap! Ed… and I didn't do anything to help.' He mentally kicked himself, 'I could have been THERE!'
"Alphonse…" Envy's cool voice cut the two bickering people in front of him, out of their heated argument. "Tell me… How Is Ed…" Envy looked slightly hurt and sad, but he hid the expression under his long green locks.
"N…Not good…" Alphonse finally admitted, "Your little companions really beat him up. Auto mail completely gone, broken bones, bruised lungs and other bruised parts of his body, and…" Alphonse's voice trailed off, "There's a hole in his gut… the doctors are trying to stitch it up at the moment."
Roy and Envy, were once again, shocked to silence. Roy was shaken up slightly, he felt like he needed to blame someone for Ed's condition. At first, it was himself, for having it happen, and right behind his back! He was fighting with the damned Homunculi while Ed was getting beaten to death.
Then his black orbs narrowed at the thought of Envy… He and Envy were arguing, maybe Envy was the one to blame here… It was probably all planned out. 'Distract the egotist Colonel while we kill the fullmetal.' Roy could hear them discussing the stupid plan in his mind. The cold voice of death was the narrator of his scenario.
Roy couldn't keep a low, threatening growl from deep in his throat silent. As it all made prefect sense…
He whirled around, ready to let a series of snaps off, right in Envy's ugly face. Give the Homunculi what was coming to him, and what Roy had been dreaming about for the past couple days…
But he hit air…
Envy was gone…
It was dark; no one could or would be able to see dark figure jump from window to window of the hospital as he looked in desperately. Purple eyes darted back and fourth until finally… FINALLY. He found the room that held his blond haired beloved.
It was the middle of the night, visiting hours were long since over. While the Chibi's operation had finished a short while ago.
The nurse, that had been assigned to check on the battered boy, had just closed the door. Satisfied with all IV's plugged in, blankets tucked neatly around the teen, and the boy sleeping soundly.
But once the door was closed, and the woman was gone, the window opened and Envy slinked into the room.
He just stood there at first… silently by the bed. Watching Ed's chest rise and fall. His breathing was let out in little gasp's, and hair was a gold mess the clung to his cool face. It pained Envy to see Ed like that…
Then, while looking for a chair to sit in Envy's eyes rested on Ed's blood stained clothes that the nurse forgot to wash. As excepted, Ed's tank top was torn and had a whole in the middle. (Envy winced) and Ed's left pant leg was torn as well from when Gluttony bit the boys leg off.
He sighed and found the chair, he moved it. Trying to take his mind the blood clothes, the boy in front of his, and where he was. He just wanted to be in his mind… his happy place. Where Ed was still in bed, but their bed. And they were about to make sweet…sweet… Love… when…
"Its way past visiting hours…" Roy's voice dragged Envy out of his happy place. And the homunculi groaned as he fell into his chair. "What are you doing here?" the Colonel questioned then his gloved hand was pulled out of hiding in his pocket, "You know… you ran out before I could give you a piece of my mind." he growled.
Envy sighed, "Oh please Colonel Dumb Dumb, Ed's here, your not going to fry me so close to his IV are you?" the homunculi questioned. Roy glared and lowered his hand. Envy smirked, "Besides, what are YOU doing here? I bet you bribed the nurse to let you stay at the late hours…" Roy's face flushed in embarrassment at how easy the Sin had read him. Envy laughed, "Put on a little of that Mustang charm?" he asked.
Roy glared and (quietly) slammed the door behind him. As he walked into white room. There was an awkward silence as Roy grabbed another chair for himself and dragged in to the other side of Ed's bed. So he could glare at Envy… while holding the boy's hand.
Envy smirked as he returned the glare and reached to grab Ed's other hand… when he met air. And Remember that that arm had been Ed's auto mail hand. He cursed to himself, but calmly started to trace the boy's facial features… while Roy was still glaring.
"Stupid fucking Homunculi…" The colonel cursed, Envy looked up from Ed's face to stare at Roy. He had never heard the military man curse like that, no matter how mad the sin had made him. "Why are you even here? Alphonse was right, wasn't he? Your friends did this, and like I said, you were using Ed all along. Well, you've practically beaten him to death, and when Ed wakes up and finds out…" Roy paused, "He's going to die, maybe not physically, but mentally… on the inside."
"No…" Was all Envy said for a moment, Roy looked at him. And for once Envy wasn't glaring at him. He was looking down at Ed, sadly. "It… It started like that at first, but I had always had a special for place for Ed in my heart, and this mission just dragged it out, till' it hurt. I really love Ed, and if I knew Lust and Gluttony would give up on the plan so soon… and not tell me… I would have been with him… I really would have…" the sin admitted.
Roy could only stare, until Envy started to say, "I've fucked everything up so bad, I ruined Ed's perfect relationship with you, I've put him in danger, and now I have nothing… When Ed wakes up he'll find everything out… he'll abandon me, go back to you…"
"And what about you?" Roy found himself asking.
"Mmmm…" Envy seemed to think about it, "Lust and Gluttony will not be happy…" he told himself, more then Roy. "I don't think I could ever go back to them…"
Another silence, the slow and steady Beep of Ed's heart monitor was the only sound in the night dead room.
Both men starred at the teen. "Funny how teenagers work…" Roy told Envy, who looked at him confused, "Ed says he loved you, he makes it clear he does…"
"But he also loves you…" Envy sighed, the words slipped past his lips and he really couldn't believe it. 'I've sunk so low…' he whimpered to himself, 'I feel like a babbling women, talking about love and…'
"We could make it work…" Roy told the room. Envy snapped to attention and looked at Roy. When the words he said started sinking in, Envy found himself speechless. "What the hell did you say?" he asked… just to be sure.
Roy looked at him with cold eyes, "We could…" he paused, "Make it work. You love Ed, and I do… We both want what's best. I'm willing to share him with you… BUT JUST SO ED'S HAPPY!" he stated firmly so the Sin understand.
Envy was still in shock, "Uh…Uh…" he opened and closed his mouth wanting to say something, something his old self would say, but found himself saying a pouty, "Fine…For chibi!"
Roy actually smiled and looked down at Ed, "You were right… we're so fucked up… we're so…" he paused, "Twisted…" Envy didn't say anything just rested his head on the hospital bed's rail and closing his eyes. Fingers entwined with some off Ed's hair… Roy smiled and squeezed Ed's hand reassuringly, "It'll be alright…" he told the sleeping boy.
And found himself sleeping there as well…

"We could make it work…" Roy told the room, Envy snapped to attention and stared at the man confused. "W..What did you say?" the Homunculi asked.
"You love him… I love him, and he loves both of us. Its not fair to make him choose. I'll do my best to have… a three some…" Roy blushed at the thought.
The idea intrigued Envy and he leaned over the bed, supporting himself on the bed's metal railing, until he was inches away from Roy's face. "I'll do me best too…" he said, and kissed the Colonel on the lips.
The kiss wasn't the longest, not as long as when Either of them kissed Ed, but it was still a kiss. Spit swapping and Tongue touching, but when it was done… Envy pulled away and stared at Roy for a reaction. Roy stared at Envy for a reaction.
At the same time both made a face of pure discuss!
"EW! GROSS! You taste like coffee!" Envy stuttered, leaning back in his seat, and swishing his mouth with spit to get Roy's taste out.
"Yeah, well you don't taste like Honey and candy yourself." Roy said, rubbing away a stray trial of spit, Envy had lazily left on his lip.
Envy reached a hand out to strike a deal with Roy, "There will be no more of that, We Share him…" Envy stated.
"Fine!" Roy said grabbing Envy's hand, "We share him."
