Dead Love 4
Roy was pacing the office room, ignoring the paper work on his desk. How was he supposed to tell a kid that was supposedly in love with him that he didn't want to see him anymore? This was going to be a challenge to Roy. He needed something to say to get it in Ed's head that he was basically a one night stand without having Ed bawl too much. He needed to get this done with less damage to him and his office as possible. Roy thought that when he told Ed, Ed would want to kill him. All he had to do now was wait for Ed to come to the office.
Ed was in his room thinking of what to do when he got to Roy's office. He was going to tell Roy the good news. He was going to tell him he loved him. Ed was so excited and happy that he had to tell Al.
"Hey, Al? I have some great news." Ed jumped up and down waiting for his brother to answer.
"What is it, brother?" Al said with as much enthusiasm as Ed. He has never seen his brother so happy. He loved this new Ed. His smile was genuine instead of forced. Nothing mattered anymore except Ed's happiness.
"The best thing, Al. I LOVE ROY!" Ed answered loud enough to echo in the empty room. "Um... we sorta….did it." He shyly added. The blush was noticeable. Al was a little concerned but if it made his brother happy then he was happy too.
Ed never thought that Roy wouldn't be ok with this. It was Roy who started this, so he must feel the same way. Ed walked up to Roy's office thinking intently on what to say. As he neared the door Hawkeye came out with folders in her hand.
"Good day, Edward." Hawkeye greeted with a salute.
Ed saluted right back and smiled brightly. Hawkeye looked at him a little and walked off. Ed knocked on the big door. He entered when he heard Roy's voice. Ed walked in smiling all the way. It looked like nothing could put him down. His smile faltered a bit when he saw the solemn look on Roy's face. He was going to just come out and say it, but Roy spoke first.
"Hello, FullMetal." He looked Ed straight in the eyes. "I have something really important to tell you." Ed's heart raced slightly. This was it. He was going to tell him he loved him first.
"What is it?" Ed replied. He couldn't stand the tension in the room. It was finally going to end. All the torment and sadness were going to end, because now Roy was going to make everything seem like a distant nightmare. Ed was not ready for what Roy said next.
"FullMetal, I would like to say I'm sorry if I led you on the night before. What I did was wrong and I can't continue with you. To make it specific, you were actually like a one night stand." Roy said with a business like tone. He braced himself for the attack, but nothing came. He looked at Ed and what he saw surprised him most.
Ed stood there lifeless. 'No,no,no,no. This cant be happening. He was supposed to make things better.' Ed's heart felt broken. He felt the same way after their mother died. No emotion except for sadness. He did something no one ever thought Edward Elric could do. Ed cried. The first time in such a long time. He could feel the tears slide down his face in hot lines.
'How could this happen? How could he do this to me?' Ed questioned. His knees felt weak, but he refused to fall. He stood there as the tears fell on the ground.
Roy couldn't believe what he saw. FullMetal….crying? He knew he was supposed to be guilty, but he was Roy Mustang. You can't feel guilty for breaking the heart of your one-night lovers, or you wouldn't be able to date much. He spent so many times building up this feeling that he couldn't feel guilty. Even if he made the hard-headed, FullMetal cry.
Ed saw nothing in Roy's face. No guilt…no remorse. It would've made him mad, but now it just made him sadder. The more he thought on it, the more he cried. He made no sounds. He just stood there and cried. The tears wouldn't stop. No matter how hard he tried they just wouldn't stop. He loved Roy too much. Even now, he still couldn't hate Roy. He just couldn't.
Roy had enough of this. 'He's acting like a spoiled child that didn't get his way. I really thought FullMetal grew up, but now he proves he still just a child. Crying like one too.'
"You are dismissed." The strict tone of his voice made Ed turn, as more tears fell. He walked out the door, quickly walking down the hall way. Everybody stared and gawked. Ed could here the whispers. "Edward Elric is crying" and "Didn't he just come from Roy's office?"
Ed didn't care about any of it. He couldn't feel anything but cold. Soon, as he made his way back to the dorms, the voices around him became nothing but silence. He didn't want to hear anything. He couldn't feel any heat either. Alone in a dark hall way. His walls he usually had to protect himself were crumbled. Roy had done that. He was the only one who could do that. Yet Ed didn't hate him, he just felt sad.
Whew! Finally. Sorry, I had to go to my grandma's house. Damn mother sprung it on me last second. ) I really think this came out ok. Poor Ed, he just can't get a break. Well this isn't the last chapter. I still have one more to do. This one might be my longest. The last one will probably be short. Just cuz it's the end.
Hope ya liked it. XD
