A Lonely Stuffed Toy (Part 2)

(Ed's P.O.V)

So here I am, sitting on a park bench alone—it's raining. Lately I've been thinking about you…well, us. The relationship we have is a bit one sided to me.

I don't understand how someone who claims to love me, could just cast me away like a rag doll and not even notice it's worth.

I thought you loved me…I thought we had something special, but I guess I was wrong. I guess I was nothing more to you than a toy. A lonely stuffed toy sitting on an empty shelf, all alone in the dark.

Imagine my surprise, when I walked in on you and that Hawkeye lady last week. You two seemed to be enjoying yourselves. Hmm…I wonder how long that's been going on! Weeks? Months? For all I know, you could've been cheating on her with me!

Not that it matters now!

To be honest, I'm a lot more confused and not as angry as I should be. This rain, it seems to be washing away my impurities, trying to cleanse me and make me whole again. But to no avail.

'Purity is a gift that can only be received once. If corrupted, it can never again be obtained.'

That's part of a poem I wrote about the meanings of two contrasting colors. I bet you didn't know I wrote poetry, did you? That's not too shocking, there's plenty about me you don't know!

For example, I hate you right now. The rain is making me feel sad…but thinking of you and…and…and…Hawkeye! I can't believe you did that to me!

Love me and care for me so much (so you say), and treat me so nice, luring me into a false security. Making me believe that you actually cared, and then one day, I walk in on you and…her!

It's your fault I will never be pure again! It's your fault I will never be able to trust again! It's your fault I am blind to everyone else that I will never love again, that I will never be happy again!

You've taken things from me that I will never get back! First kiss, my virginity, my heart…shall I continue?

You know what? I am mad! I'm mad at myself, and I'm pissed at you! I want you to feel my pain! I want you to go through my suffering! I want you to walk around in my shoes!

Since that will never happen, I'll just have to take something of equal value.

/Ed sneezes/

I really shouldn't have sat in the rain!

Well guys, thanks for making it to chapter two. I hope you enjoyed it thus far (even though the first chapter was a poem). It's actually very short and straight to the point. Not really what I was going for…but I was working on this for about two hours and thought I had written more, but I didn't! Still…the straight to the point trick just might work for this story! I really do hope you guys are enjoying this! I'm gonna work hard in the last chapter!

Disclaimer: I do not own Full Metal Alchemist…unfortunately! I could be rich right now if I did…:(

Anyway, thanks to everyone who reviewed my first chapter!

Keeper-of-mauve-paridise: Wow! I'm glad you liked it, and thought it was great! I kind of had second thoughts about this story, but I'm starting to think that it may go well. Reason being, is that this is my first ever written and posted FMA story...so I'm nervous. It seems the first chapter went well though! Haven't gotten flamed yet!

Um..Bob: Wow...thanks. Glad you like it too! Oh and uh...about the school thing...Yes. Yusuke is no longer going to Forrest...atleast not next year! Sorry buddy...

Well...many thanks for future reviewers, and thanks to those who have reviewed! Stay tuned for the next chapter!
