Well anyway, here's the next chapter of Eternal Love! (Please don't hate me)
"I slept well last night. How did you sleep Ed?" Winry asked as she gathered up the camping supplies.
"Fine." Ed replied as he quickly pulled on his clothes, blushing a little. "So, um where are you heading now Winry?" Ed asked as he started to redo his hair but failing miserably. "UGGH! Damn braid!" muttered Ed as his braid came loose. Suddenly, he felt two more arms reach over and take his hair gently and then in a few minutes, it was nicely done.
"There. All done." Winry said before heading back to the carriage. Ed just stood there staring at Winry before snapping to it and helping her out. "I might just keep on traveling until I find a suitable place to live in peace." Winry replied out of nowhere.
"Oh." Ed muttered softly as he picked up the blankets.
"After we go our separate ways, will you still visit me?" Winry asked when she wasn't watching where she was going. Winry's foot tripped on an overturned bucket that was right in front of a big hill. "AUUUUGGGHHH!" screamed Winry as she went tumbling down the hill. (a/n: there are sharp little rocks on the bottom. ouch!)
"WINRY!" Ed yelled out as he popped his wings out and dove after Winry.
Ed's Thoughts
WINRY! I got to get to her before she hits those rocks!
End of Ed's Thoughts
Ed landed on the bottom of the hill (right near the rocks, not on them), ready to catch her. When she comes down, I'll be able to grab her. Suddenly, Winry went flying down and landed right into Ed's arms, completely throwing him off balance.
Ed's P.O.V.
I suddenly felt myself flying backwards for a bit before coming to a complete stop. I slowly opened my eyes and found myself with Winry in my arms! "Are you okay?" I asked worriedly as I gently shook her a little.
"Ugh...yeah. I'm fine thanks to you." Winry said as she looked at me with a grateful look on her face.
"Um, here." I said suddenly as I gently put her on the ground and pulled out a handkerchief. "You're bleeding." I said simply as I turned away.
End of Ed's P.O.V.
"Oh! Right thanks." Winry said as she used the hankie as a bandage to stop the bleeding. They both stood there saying nothing for a while before Ed replied out of nowhere.
"There's something I've got to tell you. And it's important."
Winry's P.O.V.
Something important? "What is it?" I asked.
"You're really a princess. And I've been told to find you and bring you to my place up in the mountains." Edward replied as he didn't look at me.
A princess? Me! And...they're going to use me...for what purpose?
End of Winry's P.O.V.
Suddenly, the sound of wing flapping could be heard. "Winry! Stay back!" Ed demanded as he pulled out his sword. Winry did exactly what he said and hid away from sight.
"Easy, Fullmetal. Colonel Roy Mustang just ordered me to come down here and see what's taking you so long." Hughes said as he appeared out of the shadows. Ed quickly withdrew his sword and walked over to Hughes. "So Ed, did you find the princess?" Hughes asked as he looked at Ed. Ed slowly nodded. Hughes glanced towards where Winry was hiding. "Why don't you introduce her to me, Ed, okay?" Hughes asked as he sat on a log that was burnt.
"Sure." Ed replied softly as he looked to where Winry was hiding. "Winry, can you come here for a sec? Don't worry. Hughes is a good guy...he just gets on your nerves every single day." Ed chuckled as his little joke. Winry slowly walked over. "Don't worry." Ed replied to her as she walked past him.
"Thank you." Winry said as she stood right in front of Hughes.
"Hello! It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Lt. Maes Hughes. And you must be Winry Rockbell correct?" Hughes said as he held out his hand to her.
"Yes. It's a pleasure to meet you too Lt. Maes Hughes." Winry said as she put her hand into his.
"I assure you Winry. No harm will come to you." Hughes said reassuringly as he smiled gently at her.
"Okay. But on one condition, Den, my dog, comes with me and he is not to be hunted down or hurt in any way. Please, he's the only family I have left." Winry said as she looked at Hughes pleadingly.
"Ed, you may carry Winry. I'll take care of the dog." Hughes said with a smile.
"Thank you." Winry said happily.
"Okay. We better head out. Ed. Winry. Let's go." Hughes said as he gently gathered Den, who had a confused look on its face, in his arms.
"Ready to go, Ed?" Winry said as she walked over to Ed.
"Yeah. Sure." Ed replied as he turned around and bent down on his knees. "This is the only way I can carry you." he replied simply as he waited for her to hop on.
(A/N: Italics, song lyrics)
When you meet that certain someone you've been search'n hard to find
"Oh. Okay." Winry said as she climbed aboard on Ed's back.
"All right. Here we go." Ed replied as he quickly pulled out his wings. Winry then felt really weird as she watched the ground disappear beneath her.
"Wow! This is amazing!" she exclaimed happily as Ed flew over a cloud.
It's a new love full of passion that can sometimes make you blind
"You're so lucky!" Winry exclaimed as Ed flew through a cloud (not over it)
"Me lucky?" asked Ed as looked back at Winry with a confused look on his face.
I don't mind being swept away
If I know right from the start
"Yeah. Being able to fly whenever you feel like it with no care in the world. Now that's lucky." Winry said with a sincere look on her face. Ed suddenly felt his face heat up when he looked at Winry's happy carefree smile.
He quickly turned his head around and replied, "Thanks."
"Your welcome." Winry said happily as she also blushed a little as she looked back at the sky.
So before we go much further girl/guy, can I trust you with my heart?
Can I cast my cares upon you?
Can you stand a heavy load?
"Hey! If you two are done flirting, you can figure out for yourselves that we are almost at Central!" called Hughes out as he flew beside them.
"WE AREN'T FLIRTING!" yelled both Ed and Winry as angry marks appeared on their heads. After a while, they both looked at each other and after a minute, they both blushed and turned their separate ways.
Can I count on you to walk me down that long & winding road?
If you promise me these simple things, I can guaranty.
You can always count on me
'Kids these days.' thought Hughes as he prepared to swoop down with Ed & Winry right behind him.
Standing on a rocky ledge was a woman with dark blonde hair pulled into a bun with brown eyes (or is it amber? I'm not very sure. She was wearing the military uniform for girls) "Lt. Colonial Roy Mustang sir, Edward Elric & Maes Hughes are ready to land." she said as she turned towards the vampire with short black hair and brown eyes. (All other alchemists and people that are in the military wear this uniform besides Ed and Winry, so let me just get that over with)
"Good. Tell them its all clear, 2nd Lt. Riza Hawkeye." Roy said as he smirked up at them. Riza nodded and quickly pulled out her gun. (Riza is human too)
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"WHOA! Damn it! Colonel!" yelled Ed as he glared at Roy from up in the sky.
When two hearts solely surrender and are sworn to understand
It completes a perfect union between a woman and a man
So please, don't misunderstand me, I don't want to go too far
"Here they come, sir." Hawkeye said as they swiftly landed in front of them.
"Hughes, why are you carrying a dog?" asked Roy as he glanced at Den.
"It's my dog, sir. I told him if he didn't bring him, I wouldn't have come. Please, sir, he's the only family I have left." Winry pleaded as she put an arm around Den.
"Fullmetal, are you busy for the rest of the month?" Roy asked suddenly.
"No...no I am not." Ed answered with some annoyance in his voice.
Without knowing just one answer
Can I trust you with my heart?
Please girl/guy give me just one answer
Can I trust you with my heart?
"Good. Because starting now, you'll be Winry's and her dog's bodyguard. And that's an order." Roy said before turning around and walking away with Riza right behind him.
