A/N: This drabble is dedicated to Mog Knight because she parodied the Trix line in her review. :)
5. Roy x Ed – Trix
It was five-thirty AM – a good two hours earlier than when Roy Mustang normally woke up. But today was not a normal day. Today was the day that Roy would finally get ahold of the cereal…
The delicious, fruity cereal in question was on the lowest shelf in the kitchen pantry at Roy's house – put there specifically by Edward Elric just to make Roy hurt his back to reach it – and today, Thursday, June 15, he was going to get the last bowl of Trix.
He had woken up at five-thirty just for that occasion. Usually, Ed was up before him and thus almost always beat him to breakfast. Why the two boys never shared the cereal was a mystery, but it was always fun to argue over who got the Trix.
There was only one serving left. After an entire week going without Trix cereal for breakfast, Roy was determined to eat the last bowl. Even though he had barely slept for five hours, he wasn't tired. He knew he needed to be wide awake if he was going to outsmart Ed in getting the cereal…
Tiptoeing into the kitchen, Roy quietly opened the pantry door and bent down, chocolate eyes scanning the bottom shelf for the elusive red cereal box… It wasn't there! "What?" gasped Roy, standing up and turning around.
Ed was there to greet him, empty Trix box in one hand and a bowl of fruity cereal with a spoon in it in the other. He grinned maliciously, sending sharp stabs of pain through Roy's ego – once again, the FullMetal boy had thwarted him and robbed him of a bowl of good cereal!
"Silly, Mustang," teased Ed, his voice laced with giddiness. "Trix are for kids."

Bakuras-Hell: Thanks very much. I love angsty romance. 'Tis fun to write. Glad you like my drabbles! Thanks for the review!
I don't know why Ed is eating cereal… Cereal normally requires milk… Though one time I did have Cookie Crisp with orange juice, and it was pretty good… so maybe Ed eats it with orange juice… o.O;; Also, he's admitting he's a kid here, which is a bit OOC, but who cares! I wanted him to say that line SO BADLY :breaks things: 'Kay, I'll shut up now and leave ya'll be. Ja ne!
