Chapter 2: My Girl

"Wow, look at all the choices! I thik I know what song I wanna do." said Winry cheerfully as she, Riza, and Shezka looked in the song book. Gracia was sitting by Riza looking through another one of the books while the guys hogged all the snacks. "Ed, you're going to sing, aren't you!" Winry asked, her eyes shinning with excitement. Ed looked around Roy at the girl and frowned a little, swallowing what was in his mouth.

"I don't sing, Winry." he said. She looked at him with pleading eyes and Ed quickly looked away. "Honestly,what man would get excited about this?" he muttered. Without warning, Hughes let out an excited cheer as he ran up on the stage, dragging along Breda and Fuery.

"You two be my back up!" he said, shoving microphones at the two and turning to his confused companions and wife, who were all looking at him expectantly. "I dedicate this song to my beautiful wife, Gracia!" he announced. She laughed a little and waved at him as he grinned and went into a dramatic pose on stage. Everyone sweat dropped and the two soilders behind Maes seemed very confused and nervous. How did they get dragged up here? They had just come for fun. Suddenly, the music began playing and Hughes broke out into song...

HUGHES: I've got sunshine

On a cloudy day.

When it's cold outside,

I've got the month of May.

He turned around and looked at Fuery and Breda and they exhanced looks before singing their assigned parts. Havoc and Roy began laughing while Al tried to save Ed, who was chocking from the sudden shock. Shezka and Riza were both very silent and stared at the military men in shock.

"Wow... they're not too bad." laughed Winry, slightly embarassed for the pair.

FUERY and BREDA: Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl. (My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)

Hughes grinned and seemed to begin ceranading his wife, kneeling on the stage and singing to her. Riza inched away from the giggling woman and bumped into Roy. He looked at her and grinned. "You don't find it romantic?" he asked in a teasing manner and she rolled her eyes.

"Depends on what you think is romantic and what I find to be..." she trailed off and looked over at Hughes and Gracia. "...Scary."

HUGHES: I've got so much honey

The bees envy me.

I've got a sweeter songThan the birds in the trees.

Getting into the spirit, Fuery and Breda began singing their parts, Hughes along with them. Winry had even began humming along.

FEURY abd BREDA:Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl. (My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)

HUGHES: Ooooh, Hoooo.

FUERY and BREDA:Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

"C'mon boys, sing the rest with me!" said Maes cheerfully.

ALL: I don't need no money,

Fortune or fame.

I've got all the riches, baby,

One man can claim.

Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl. (My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)

Talkin' bout my girl.

I've got sushine on cloudy day

With my girl.

I've even got the month of May

With my girl.

When the music faded, the men grinned,Fuery in a shy manner, and bowed as the group clapped for them. Havoc and Falman clapped their companions on the back. "Wow Kain! I didn't know you had it in you!" laughed Havoc and Fuery grinned sheepishly.

"What can I say. Hughes knows how to get a guy worked up." he laughed. Maes grinned as he sat next to his wife and kissed her on the cheek as she grinned at him and pinched in cheek in a playful manner.

"You're such a goof, Maes Hughes." she laughed. He grinned goofily and looked around at the others.

"So, who's up next?" There was a silence and a sudden smirk crossed Roy's face.

"Ed and I will go." he voulenteered, ignoring the outraged look on Ed's face.
