Chapter 7: Moonlight dinner

Ed had come back to the hotel to find that Winry had gone out for something to eat.

"Why didn't you tell her to wait for me!" the shorter Elric yelled at his younger, yet taller, brother.

"She said she was starving and for you to meet her up at the restaurant across the street later, she had something to tell you from what I observed," replied the suit of armor.

He headed for the restaurant. Ed had missed lunch and took this as a good opportunity to get something to eat and complete his dare. He could always tell Winry it was after; it wasn't against the rules to do so. What was she going to tell him anyways? His mind was clouded with thoughts before he spotted her. She was in a blue dress just above her knees and no straps and was she wearing…make-up?

Ed gawked at the blonde sitting at the outside table of the restaurant. She's so beautiful, Ed thought as he approached her. Suddenly he started sweating and realized he was blushing a bit at her slightly revealing dress.

Winry spotted Ed coming towards her and was getting a little nervous. C'mon Winry, if you don't do this now, you might never get the chance to… you'll just have to tell him, she though to herself. It was then in the moonlight, that she noticed a twinge of pink on his face. Why was he blushing?

"Hey Ed," Winry said with a smile when he was in hearing distance.

"Uh, hey Winry…you look…good. What's the occasion?" asked the flustered boy.

"Oh it's nothing, just felt like dressing up tonight," she gave him a smile. Just felt like dressing up for the night? Good excuse Winry, she scolded herself for sounding so ditzy.

Ed practically melted when she smiled at him. She looked great with the moonlight shining on her. He eased his way into the seat in front of her.

"So Al said you had something to tell me?" Ed asked.

"Yea, but that can wait, I'm starving," Ed's stomach growled in agreement. He chuckled and scratched he back of his head.

"Uh, yea I sorta missed lunch today," he said smiling sheepishly.

They ordered their dinner and when they were done, Ed insisted they walked around Central for a while.

"You haven't told me what you wanted to tell me," he pointed out.

"Well, Ed…" She halted and Ed followed. They were in the sidewalk in a quiet and empty street. She blushed many shades of red. Ed seeing this, decided to talk to let her recollect herself.

"Uh, this feels like a date doesn't it?" He pointed out. "You being all dressed up and all."

Winry feeling relieved and embarrassed at what he was saying. "Yea, but it wouldn't be a date without a kiss goodnight." She said in a knowingly manner.

"You seem to know a lot about dates, had you had experience?" Ed feeling a little jealous at these mysterious boys Winry has been dating.

"No, just a lot of romance novels, I don't only read about auto mail, you know?" She laughed nervously at the subject they were talking about.

"Is that so?"

"Yes actually, in most novels, the guys ask the girls out and at the end it ends like something of a passionate lip-lock." She stated.

Just then Ed decided to take a chance. He stopped Winry and pulled her closer to him. "Sorta like this right?" He asked as he tilted her face to his auto mail hand. "E…Ed?" Winry asked with a questioned face. Ed moved closer and shut his eyes right before placing his lips on hers. Winry didn't know what to make of this at first, but then as it had registered in her brain, she slowly pushed her lips onto his, thusly kissing him back.

It was Ed's turn to be surprised as he opened his eyes. Winry's…kissing me back? I have got to be dreaming…but it's too real to be a dream, Ed realized. He let go of her face and pinched himself, it definitely wasn't a dream. Their lungs then gave out and cried out for air, breaking their kiss. Both panting, they looked at each other with glazed over eyes.

"Let's go back to the hotel Winry," Ed held out his hand for her to take. She took his hand and walked beside him, her head on his shoulder.

They reached the outside of the hotel. "So what was it you wanted to tell me?" Ed turned around to face Winry. "Oh nothing," she said as she kissed him again and ran into the hotel. By the time Ed snapped out of his daze, he saw Mustang head towards the restaurant he had just left a couple of minutes ago with who seemed like Ms. Hawkeye. Well I'll be damned, Mustang actually did it, was Ed's first thought. He walked over to the happy couple and yelled out in a triumphant tone, "Whose time is running out now Mustang!"

"What was that all about?" the confused Lieutenant asked her Colonel as the preppy teen ran back to the hotel.

"It looks like our plan worked, by the smile on Full Metal's face. That and I'll be wearing a dog suit for a week," he sighed dejectedly.

It was going to be a long week for Mustang.
