VampireChildofDarkness: x.x;;; My last day of school was totally and completely pointless! We just sat there for a half hour each class. It was beyond boring. -shrugs- At least I got cheesy puffs and cake from two of my classes! XD Mmm, you'll just have to wait and see if that "certain blonde" was him or not.

Chapter eleven / Russell: One - Ed: Nothing

After Roy and Maes left to cover at the office -with buyable lie for tardiness ready-, Ed and Russell were left alone. Or should we say, Ed was left alone with a certain Tringham who was about to lose his cool.

Coming downstairs in the black-blue leather pants and white muscle tank top (A/N: -drools-), the state alchemist looked around for any sign of Russell.

"Russ? Where are you?" he asked. Pulling on his leather jacket and grabbing his boots, Ed tried again. "Russell! Are you even still here!"

"Unfortunately," he heard someone grumble.

Grinning, Edward stood. "Well, I'm going into town for a little bit. I'm almost out of food."

"This isn't even your house!"

"Yeah, I know. But if I'm going to be living here I need to pitch in occasionally, ya'know?"

"L-living … here?" the younger man choked out; coming around the corner with a white face.

Ed blinked. "Yeah. Roy asked me to move in last week. I mean, since I live by myself and he lives by himself, why not life together?"

Russell froze. For a moment he thought his heard stopped beating.

'M-move in? So … they really are together?

"No …" Russell gasped out.

"Russ? Are you okay? You look pale," Ed asked, concern clearly written on his face.

Shaking out of his trance, he glared swords (A/N: XD Worse than glaring daggers!), "I'm fine. I don't need nor want your pity."

The shorter blonde blinked a few times. "Geez, Russ. I was just asking if you were alright. No need to bite my head off."

-Headquarters-

Roy was hard at work finishing his paper work -yeah right ¬¬- when a certain blonde walked into his office.

"Ed, what are you doing he-- Russell?" he quirked a brow. "What are you doing here? You should be back at the house on look out for Full Metal."

Russell merely shrugged. "Ed went out anyway."

"WHAT!" Roy quickly lowered his voice. "He was supposed to stay inside! Why did you let him leave!"

"Ed's a big boy, he can take care of himself. Besides, I didn't recognize him at first. With that outfit and his hair down, no one just passing by will know it's him. So, just relax. Your precious lover boy is just fine."

Mustang slowly calmed down.

'He's right. Ed can take care of himself. I just keep forgetting that he's not the little kid I knew him to be. Damn it, Ed. Why do you have to worry me?'

Sighing, the dark-haired man rubbed his temples. "Alright, Russell. Then why are you here?"

-Meanwhile in Town-

"Hmm, now, what else do we need?" Ed quietly asked himself. Looking down at the bag in his arm, he re-checked off the things mentally. "Got bread, rice … cheese, butter and … milk." The blonde shuddered. How anyone could like that stuff, he would never know.

After picking up a few more items, Edward went back home to put the things away.

"Russell?" he called. There was no answer. "Hmn, maybe he actually went to look around." The blonde shrugged. "Once I get all of these put away, maybe I'll surprise Roy with a little visit. He's been way too tense lately."

Ed grinned. Yeah, he'll surprise the colonel. This would be fun.

-Headquarter: Roy's Office-

Roy twitched a brow. "Well? Are you going to tell me why you're here? I have a lot of work to do.

Russell smirked and crossed his arms. "You're too busy for me, but have plenty of time for Ed."

Sighing for what seemed to the one-hundredth time, the colonel looked up from his paper work. "I happen to be working, Russell. I do the same to Ed when he's here. But you also know that the relationship between Ed and me, is very different from the one you and I have.

The blonde started messing with his jacket. "Why are you even with that little pipsqueak anyway? All he does is complain and run off his mouth."

The older man blinked. "Well, true Ed seems to do that a lot … but he has a lot of other qualities. You haven't been around lately to see how he's matured."

The Tringham let out a bitter laugh. "Matured? Give me a break, Mustang! Edward Elric will never mature! Not in a thousand years."

"Why are you so damn resentful towards Ed! He hasn't done anything to you!" Roy practically yelled jumping from his seat.

"Oh, he's done plenty."

"Really …" Roy questioned. "Like what?"

"He has you," Russell said flatly.

Mustang almost fell back into his chair. "You … have a grudge against Ed because … he's in a relationship with me?"

"More or less," the blonde answered with a smirk.

"That has to be the most pathetic excuse I've ever heard in my life! You don't hate a person just because they are with someone that you have feelings fo--"

But the colonel was cut off when Russell grabbed him and pulled him into a steamy kiss.

And of course right at that moment, the door happened to open; and Ed walked in.

"Hey Roy! I know I shouldn't of, but I couldn't help and come and--" Gasping, the state alchemist watched in horror as Russell wrapped his arms around the older man's neck; drawing him closer as he deepened the kiss. "R-Roy …?"

What Ed thought was Roy's arms laying on Russell and his eyes closed, was truly Roy trying to push away and his eyes closed in concentration. (A/N: Ya'know, when you squeeze your eyes shut because it supposedly helps.)

Storming out of the office, Ed ran as fast as he could out of the building; not caring if he bumped into anyone. Tears fogged his vision as he darted back to the house.

Stumbling, he unlocked the door and after slamming it shut, ran to the bathroom.

Grabbing the pouch from the bottom drawer, he took out the same blade he used those months ago. Hastily pulling off the leather jacket, Ed pushed the safety razor to his wrist; doing a quick slash.

Panting, he watched in a mix of awe and shock as crimson blood poured out of him. Dropping the blade to the floor, the blonde held his arm with his auto-mail.

By the time he realized he needed to stop the bleeding, a wave of dizziness hit him full blast. Grabbing onto the counter to regain his balance, Ed looked down to see he was standing in a rather large puddle of his blood.

"… shit …"

Opening the cabinet, Ed took out the gauze and bandages; wrapping his wrist as tightly as he could without cutting of the blood circulation.

Looking around, he spotted a rag towel. Snatching it, Ed swiped the floor and his boots frantically … the entire towel was blood red now.

"Fuck! What do I do with it now?" Stuffing it into the pouch along with his blade, Edward placed it back in the bottom drawer under everything else inside it.

Checking his boots and the floor, he sighed when it looked like there were no blood left. Wobbling to the bedroom, he yanked off the now-clean boots with his auto-mail hand. Slowly lying down, Ed took a shaky breath.

'Damn … I guess I lost a lot of blood. Why am I even still in this fucking house? Damn it all. I'd leave … but I'm just to fucking tired to budge an inch …'

The scene of Roy's office played and re-played in his mind. Squeezing his eyes shut before anymore tears could flow, he let go to unconsciousness.
