A/N: We're at drabble #24! Are you excited! I am! Mwahaha!

This took -forever- to get up. FFN wouldn't cooperate, then my computer was like "SCREW YOU" and froze several times... I'm not going to go into detail. It isn't pretty.

24. Alone (190 words)

Edward leaned against the rock, staring at the cloudless night sky, a sad smile playing over his lips.

"Al's getting married tomorrow," he said to no one. "To Winry. They're always so happy these days, and I'm happy for them. Al deserves something like this, after being a suit of armor for so long..."

He looked at his right arm, staring at the flesh that had once been automail and sighed. "Gracia had her baby last week, too. A boy. Hughes wasted no time in taking pictures and showering them all over the office. They named him Devon. They wanted to name him Roy, but..." Ed stopped and shook his head. "Never mind." He stood and faced the stone. "I have to go now, and get ready for the rehearsal dinner. I'm best man, so I'm kind of important..."

Ed stared at the unresponsive stone, and then knelt down and put a hand over the careful lettering. "I feel so alone... I miss you so much... Roy..."

As the tears threatened to fall, Edward stood and walked in the opposite direction, away from the headstone that marked his lover's grave.

A/N: Eek! I think I just killed Roy. Don't worry! The next one will be happy! I promise!

Uh, a lot of people seemed to not understand what happened in the previous drabble... Roy called out someone ELSE'S name when he and Roy were in bed. Not Fullmetal or Edward or Ed or Ward or Eddie, someone else's name. Everyone get it now? Good.

Reviewer Responses!

H's D - Uh... I was gonna say Wolf's Rain but never mind. Wow, no one seems to stay dead in anime. oO; Yeah. I didn't even bother trying. Hehehe... Krayon. Joints are drugs. Yeah, it was original. It was good, too :D Anyway. Thanks for the review!

Marii - Hey, I never said he got away with a bruised knee. It was his automail leg, after all. x3 Thanks for the review!

Noniechan - Yes, I am a clutz x.x; Not as bad as my cousin though. He can like, stand in the middle of the room and be like, "Hmm, I think I'll pick up that vase over there" and the vase will commit vase-suicide to save itself from being dropping by him. Heehee. I luff Roy. He's so great. He probably just stood there smirking when Ed was yelling at him. xDDD 'Pain', huh? xDDD Roy as uke? I read one of thems once. Ed was on top, but Roy was -still- in control. Yeah, he's good like that. Eh, Ed'll forgive him. He's a teenager and can't last long without the sex x3 I love jealous!Edward. Ed's too fun to mess with. xD You should have been there! Sarah and I were cracking up and Vic was giving us weird looks. It was so great. It's hysterical because, uh... it's hysterical! n.n Thanks for the review!

magical-wildgirl - o.o; You live way up there. We have a few here. A-Kon, Ushicon, AnimeFest, Realmscon... uh... I know there's more, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I just luff Daine and Numair n.n Thanks for the reviews!
