Takanoru- since we are getting a little closer to the end, here's another one-shot. The last is a drabble though. Enjoy!
Poor Al
Ed opened his eyes from his position on the couch. He sat up and looked at his lover who was steadily working on paperwork for once.
"Ya know, Roy, I just realized that Al is the only one that doesn't know we're together."
"Our relationship may be a secret, but it is kind of obvious," Roy said, looking up.
"Al isn't around you enough to notice."
"So why don't you tell him? I'm sure he'd accept us."
"I know and I would tell him but he's in Resembool with Winry right now."
"Call him and tell him."
"You make it sound easy."
"Because it is. He's your brother, Ed."
Ed looked from Roy to the phone.
"Alright."
He dialed the Rockbell's number and heard the familiar voice of his childhood friend answer the phone.
"Rockbell Automail Shop, how can I help you?"
"Hey, Winry-"
"WHAT PART OF YOUR AUTOMAIL DID YOU SCREW UP THIS TIME, EDWARD!"
"Why do you always assume that? It's working perfectly. I just called to talk to Al. Is he around?"
"Oh, sorry, yeah he's here."
Ed heard the phone being handed off and then the voice of his brother.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Al, how are things in Resembool?"
"Hey, brother, we're kinda busy but other that that all's well."
"That's greeaaat…" Ed turned around and slapped the hand sliding up his shirt.
"Brother?"
"Yes, Al?"
"Are you okay?"
"Mmmhmmm…" Again, Ed turned and slapped the mischievous hand and mouthed the words "Not now".
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Okay. Oh, sorry but I need to go. Winry needs me."
"I'm sure she does," Ed said with a smirk.
"Bye."
"See ya."
Ed hung up the phone and turned to face Roy. "What was that!"
"Why didn't you tell him?"
"You weren't exactly giving me the chance!"
"You should tell him in person anyway."
"But this was your…ugh!" Ed yelled and stormed out.
-.-.-.-.-Three days later-.-.-.-
"Hello, lieutenant, is Ed here? I wanted to surprise him."
"Hi, Al, he just went in the colonel's office ten minutes ago."
"Thank you."
Havoc looked at the closed door Al was about to enter. "It's really quiet. Are you sure both of them are in there?"
Riza stopped and turned. "No, Al, don't go in there!"
She was too late. Al opened the door to find Ed on the desk and Roy on top of him.
"Brother!" he shrieked and slammed the door.
"Well, that's one way to tell him," Roy chuckled.
Takanoru- poor, poor Al. There are many times that I wish I was him. That was one of them. (I'm bad, I know XD) on to #50!
"Now that my horrific incident of terror is over, how about some breakfast?"
