Drabble Four: Sunshine
Mornings were the worst on rainy days. It poured down hard. If only work was canceled. But it wasn't, and the alarm was blaring to wake the raven haired Colonel from his blissful slumber. But he was still so tired, having stayed up way too late to finish paper work. He finally groaned, shoved the alarm clock as hard as he could into the wall, then got up, stomping on it a few times to shut it up. He dressed himself, gloves and all, then went straight to work. Whatever attitude he had in the morning he couldn't remember, but when the grand short FullMetal Alchemist arrived back from his trip from who remembers where anymore, he was cocky, all-knowing Roy Mustang.
It was still raining when Edward had a spasm over not being short, aimed at who knows who anymore, when Roy called him into his office.
"You need to keep the noise down outside my office." Roy said smoothly. Edward flipped, Roy ignoring who knows what the boy was ranting over anymore. "Fullmetal." Roy snapped, getting the blonde to shut up for a moment. "I'm not in the mood to have my eardrums broken, if you don't mind. Assuming of course your noise could get that high, but unluckily for me I'm in no mood to stand, either." Edward flipped more.
It seemed to rain harder the more Ed yelled.
"Fullmetal, just keep the noise down." Roy said finally.
The rain didn't stop for the rest of the day, and the Elric brothers did keep the noise down eventually. It was just so gloomy when it rained sometimes.
Roy packed himself up, getting ready to go home in the late night hours. Another dull day, eh?
"Another dull day, eh?" A voice mimicked. Roy blinked, looking around and DOWN to see the blonde.
"Unlike yours, I'm sure." Roy replied smoothly. He was so suave.
"You're so suave." Ed mimicked once more, pulling Roy down to his height. "Stop working late, you know it's hard on you. Plus, while I'm in town I want some time with you."
"Hm, isn't that a bit presumptuous Fullmetal?" Roy asked, pretending to not know. Ed gave a glare.
"You PROMISED this time Roy, you better not have cheated on me with someone while we were away." Ed snapped.
"Of course not. So, did you bring an umbrella, or will we have to share mine?" Roy asked, Ed plastering their lips together before answering.
"We're sharing yours."
The rain came down hard until the next morning, and Ed would not be there when Roy woke up, as usual. But it was much sunnier when Roy knew he could have a little guy to taunt when he got to work, and a little guy to walk him home in the late hours, pretending to not love it as much as he really did.
End drabble four.
Blame the ostrich at the foot of my bed, it always droops when it rains unless I put the bear by it.
