Entrustment

Disclaimer: Don't own the FMA characters. I own Rei though

As Rei awake to the sunlight filling her room, she sombered out into the kitchen. Riza was already there with breakfast ready. "Morning sleepyhead." Of course, I sleep on it and it gets worse, Rei thought as she sat down to eat her breakfast. "Since you don't have any cloths, I called Roy to take you out shopping and then just bring you to work so I can bring you home." "I can come home by myself. I'm not 3." " you think I'd let you roam the streets when there are people out there that could kill you? Objects are replaceable but people are not!" " I know. I can protect myself. I have done so for years. And I would appreciate it if you treated me as your roommate. Not your kid, or kid sister who can't do anything for herself." "Well, if I'm gonna get Roy, I need to show him that if we have children, I know how to protect them!" "If he really falls in love with you he would protect you first and he'd learn from you without you showing him that you can protect a child. A relationship is based on love. Not how good the other would be at protecting the children if we get married and have kids." "You think you know everything about how to have a great relationship?" "No, I just know what a bad one is made up of." Riza finished and left without a word. A few moments later, Roy knocked on the door. Rei opened it and smiled, " Oh you're the guy from yesterday! Thank you for your help." "Don't mention it. Is Riza here?" "No, you just missed her. She left after a small argument." "Oh. Well, come on. Lets go. We're burning daylight." Rei nodded and closed the door to get ready. A few moments later she emerged in an outfit Riza let her borrow and exited, locking the door behind her.

As the two walked casually down the street, Roy looked over at Rei walking besides her. Her long blonde hair and brown eyes made her resemble someone else he knew well, Edward Elric. As they walked in the first store, Rei looked around at the luxurious interior, "Wow, This place is huge!" "Yeah. That's because its one of the finest retailers in the city." He took her hand and walked her over to the women's section, " Well, grab some outfits and try them on." Rei looked through the shirts and pants and picked out 20 outfits, which totaled to almost $700. "Man your expensive." "Well, I'm not always this high mantience." "I hope not. A guy could go broke catering to you." She chuckled and smiled as she looked at him as he made the joke. He looked at her smiling face. She had so much radiance that he didn't want to see it fade. They walked toward the exit when a voice suddenly stopped them, " Hey Bastard!" Roy's face turned to anger and turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, " How many times have I told you not to call me that in public Elric!" A short blonde teen walked over, " ah screw you," he said as he looked as Rei, "Oh its Psycho girl!" "I AM NOT PSYCHO!" Rei yelled in his face. "THEN WHY'D YOU TRY TO KILL ME YESTERDAY!" "Thats for me to know and you to find out!" Rei pouted."So what are you doing here anyway, mustang?" "Helping Rei get a new wardrobe." "Oh, so she's Rei, the psycho girl," Ed grimmed. Rei growled and punched him, "You stupid Midget!" "I'M NOT A MIDGET!" they both pouted and Roy led Rei out of the store and down to a few more stores spending a total of a quarter million bucks on her. Roy looked at Rei, "So you wanna go home yourself or come with me to HQ?" " Whichever gets me away from Riza." "Why?" "She treats me like a 3 year old on the basis that if she shows you she can protect me, she thinks you'll fall for her. I told her she needs to let it go and that you'd make a move if you liked her because a relationship is based on love, not if someone will be good in the future. She said I must know how to have the perfect relationships, but I just know what a bad one is made of." "I've got a large house with a lot of spare room. You can move in with me if you want. I'd never treat you like a kid. I like you too much." Rei smiled as she realized life was going to become a whole lot better with Roy Mustang.
