Song: Building a Mystery

Artist: Sarah McLocklain

Riza shivered as she felt his finger travel slowly up her spine. She closed her eyes and let out a breath she hadn't known she'd been holding, and his warm hand closed around her shoulder. It surprised her how soft his hand was. His bare chest pressed against her back, and she could feel the cold auto mail pressed against her flesh. It made her shiver again.

Ed's teeth nipped gently at her shoulder, and he flashed her a grin in the dresser mirror as his flesh arm wrapped around her waist. The fingers on his left hand traced fascinating patterns across her belly. It always amazed Riza how much the young alchemist loved to touch – to be touched – when they were alone.

Riza watched in the mirror as she reached back and wrapped a few of his pale gold locks around her fingers, enjoying the feel of the silken strands in her hand. He purred in her ear like a large cat, pulling her insistently towards the rumpled, still warm bed.
