Rawr!
I am off to write :insert inspiration here: Woot!
Anyway I'll shall attempt to create a… decent RoyEd story. XD Based off an rp I did with a friend. Hopefully I won't kill the fandom o.o
Don't worry! I will update my other fics as soon as I can:3 Which will most likely be tomorrow.
Summary: You Too Full Metal? In attempt to ease the young alchemist's anger, Roy gives Ed a day off from work. However, the Elric doesn't work well with free time and wants something interesting to do. And Roy has that something in mind. RoyEd
Chapter 1: Roy's Declaration
Et tu Hagane?
"I'm here Taisa!"
No response.
"Taisa?"
Not a word.
"Taisa!"
The colonel lifted his head from the unsorted untouched papers. "Ah I'm sorry. I seem not to have heard you from the tiles of the floor, Hagane."
This caused anger to Ed. He shook it off and tossed a small black book on the desk. "I finished your mission" he said, narrowing his eyes at the colonel.
Roy smiled at this, taking a look inside and closing it proudly. He leaned back in his chair and tilted his head. "Yes, I can see that you did your job to your up most ability. Now tell me something… how did it go?"
Ed growled slightly and huffed. "She was very happy and wanted to thank you. Happy now?"
"Ha ha ha! I had a feeling. So I take it that Mission: Get Roy's Date was a complete success! I'm very pleased." Roy laughed happily.
The small one growled. This may have been pleasing to Roy, but not to Ed. He sat on the couch and crossed his arms, almost looking like he was going to throw a tantrum.
"Hn? Something wrong, Hagane?" The man tilted his head and looked at the small boy.
"Yeah… why don't you give me assignments that, oh I don't know… give me something to do? All I ever get are your damn errands! I'm fricken sick of it!" Ed stood, yelling.
This has been a problem with him since Roy hired him to be his assistant. Ever since that day, Ed has been doing Roy's chores from shopping to picking up dates. And it certainly had been bothering Ed, since he had a different image of the job.
Roy shrugged. "Well, Edward, the job of an assistant is to do whatever I tell you to do without asking questions. If you have a problem with it, I won't hesitate to let you go."
That wasn't going to be a very pleasant thing for Ed. He and Al just bought a new house, a pretty expensive house at that, and they needed the money to pay for it. If he were to be fired, that would only create more problems for Al and himself since they have multiple jobs and were having difficulty with them.
Ed sighed. He had no choice but continue to tend to Roy's every whim. "No… I don't have a problem." he said quietly.
The colonel grinned. "Good. Now will you be a dear and get me some tea?" Roy practically sang.
A soft growl. But it had to be done or else Ed would lose his job. He went to the hallway and made tea.
Roy waited. But, he wasn't a very patient fellow at the moment, so he needed something to entertain himself. He already counted the dust on the wall and played with his handmade Riza paper dolls. So he was left with spinning in his chair.
Ed returned with the tea and set it at the table. "There." He said blankly.
"Thank you, little one." Roy smiled, sat down and poured a glass for him and Ed.
Ed held back his need to slash the soldier's throat and took a sip at the tea.
"So Hagane, found a girlfriend yet?" Roy asked out of the blue.
This caused Ed to spit out his tea. "W-what?"
"You know. A girlfriend. Those things that you play with on things called dates. Have you not have one?" Roy teased.
Ed shook his head and got pink. "W-what does that matter to you?" he asked nervously. Ed seriously hadn't thought about one.
"So you do?" Roy quirked a brow.
"N-no I don't!"
"That Winry girl is cute. How about tickling her?"
"WHAT! No! She's just my friend and mechanic!"
"Mmm… I think you could get it good with her…"
"S-SHUT UP!"
"Relax, Hagane. I'm kidding." He laughed and drank more of his tea. Ed was no fun to play with. He was always uptight and always took things seriously.
Which is why Ed never really liked carrying a good conversation with him. Roy never took anything seriously. It was always the 'No work and all play' thing.
A girlfriend… ha! Ed had no time for such a thing. He was too busy getting mortgage paid to go on dates.
"How about me?"
"Huh?" Ed's head shot up from his daze.
"How about going out with me?" Roy plainly said. His eyes looking directly into Ed's.
Ed thought about it. Was he kidding? Most likely. But he looked pretty serious there. What was Ed to think of this? Did Roy really want Ed to go out with him? That face said yes and Ed wasn't going to take any chances. He sat up. "Umm… I think I hear Alphonse calling me…"
Roy continued to look at him. "I believe that you are lying to me, Hagane." He got up and kneeled in front of Ed. His hand cupped his chin and lifted Ed's face to look directly at him. He wanted Ed to give him full eye contact. They're faces only inches away from each other.
Ed's face appeared red. He couldn't avoid whatever Roy was going to do to him, but he knew one thing he could do to prevent it from happening.
He opened his mouth and…
bit Roy's finger…
"OW! SHIT! I was kidding, Edward!" Roy took his glove off and blew on his finger. "Someone has some anger issues today, don't we?"
Ed turned his head away, his face still red. "Hmph!"
"You know, there are fabulous clinics in the area that can help you. You should really see to it that you visit one… really soon." His eyes developed tiny tears as he put his finger in his mouth. "I do believe that I'm bleeding."
Serves him right! Ed thought. Scaring him like that. Geez, that guy really had problems. Problems that needed to be attended to… fast.
"Hmmm…. You know what? I think you need a day off. You clearly are going through some stress. You need time to relax and think… because biting people isn't normal…" Roy said, going through his papers. He needed to get some work done before a certain lieutenant found out.
Ed slowly nodded before slowly opening his eyes widely, being totally shocked. "Day… off?"
Roy nodded. "Yes"
"B-but Taisa! I'm not one for… for breaks! I'm better off just continuing working" Ed wanted to make sure that Roy heard him out. Free time… wasn't Edward's thing. It would sent him to the crazy house. He'd drive himself nuts.
"Nope! I've made up my mind!" Roy declared.
It was clear. Ed was to have a day off and there was nothing he could do to change his mind.
Blah that was bad. The next chapter will be better. Because Roy will… oh! Don't want to spoil it for you! You'll just have to wait until tomorrow to find out what happens next!
The title of this story is a line from Shakespeare's Ceasar play thingy. It's original form is "Et tu Brute?" Which means "You too Brutus?" in Latin I believe. So now you know the title! Yaay!
Thank you for reading!
