As the Children Play
Chapter III: The Rain's Soft Laughter
Harsh rain, that always seems ready to set a dark scene, was busy tonight.
A sharp rapping at the wood door of the Automail shop stirred its inhabitants.
"What the hell do you want at one in the morning!" Winry grumbled and opened the door. "I was slee …. ping …. Ed? What happened!"
There stood the cocky, ego-tastic Edward Elric, in all his shrimpy glory.
"What did you do to your arm!"she screeched.
"Heh … I had an accident …"
"You're ALWAYS doing this, Ed, I don't know why I even bother to repair it!"
"Awe, c'mon, Win, don't be so harsh."
"Harsh! Harsh! I'll show you harsh!" Winry raised her infamous wrench, aiming to hit Edward over the head, and then she saw him flinch.
"… Ed?"
… He's in pain …He must have really torn up his arm …
"Come inside, Ed, I'll fix you up."
She opened the door and led him in, Al silently following after.
"Ahh! Damn it!"
"I'm sorry, Ed, but you really ripped this up … it's going to take a lot of work …"
Winry Rockbell sat concentrating as she attached the new Automail arm to Ed's nerves.
When it was all done, both of them were considerably worn.
"Win …?"
"Yeah, Ed?" she asked, more than a little exhausted.
"…Thanks."
She gave him a weary smile.
"For everything."
"… You're welcome, Ed … Ed? ……. Ed? Damnit, Ed! You fell asleep!"
Let your love trickle down.
Can you saw "awe":3 Er … okay, not very "awe" worthy, but I had the idea in my head for some time. Of course, in my head the ending was different, more fluffy, but things never turn out the way I thought when I start typing.
