Water Cannot Wash Away Sins

A/n: This is my fourth fan fiction. Based on FullMetal Alchemist. My fave pairing Riza/Roy and this also has fore view explaining about their married life and their children. Happy times. Riza doesn't want to remember, Roy doesn't want to forget. That, my friends, makes the saying water cannot wash away sins. No like, no read. A bit AU and slight OOCness, but everything has its downs, right? Let us begin!

Riza had finished her paperwork and was about to head home. Mustang, Havoc, Breda, Fury and Falman had left ages ago. 'Shit,' thought Riza, 'it is almost 20 hundred hours. I was supposed to meet my friend ages ago'. Riza then left. No more said.

The future: Riza Mustang was wandering around her home. A lavish mansion was perfect for a furher and his family. Roy was at work and she was just at home minding the kids. Then all of a sudden a small child ran into Riza. "Now, now, what has happened here?" she asked dumbly as she walked into her younger children's room. "Zachary, Markyll, Erika, Rose, Mae (after Maes Hughes), Roy Jr., Joh and Ana, what happened?" The littlest child answered. 'Mummy, Zac, Marky, Roy and Joh were teasing me. Eri and Rose tried to help, but they only started fighting. Mae tried to calm them down and I got a fright so I ran to get you" Ana Hawkeye explained. Only half the children were Mustangs. Ana, Markyll, Erika and Joh were Hawkeye's. The rest were Mustangs. Zachary was the oldest at twelve. Then Markyll and Erika at eleven. Rose and Mae were next at nine. Roy Jr. at seven. Joh at six. And Ana (pronounced Ah-nah) at four. Riza had married Roy six months after the law was lifted thirteen years ago. Roy still in the military and Riza at home. Ana liked this set up.

Present: The law would be lifted soon so Riza and her "lover" could be together. Only five more days until the hearing. Then they would get married and have as many kids as they could count. But that was far away for now. Just not yet. A little more time was all they needed.

A/n: all finished. Cliffy! I named the children whatever I felt like. But I named Roy Jr., Erika, Mae and Ana for a reason. Mae has her reason, but the rest you will just have to wait. I rock! R&R! Please no flames, I know it is a bit jumpy, but I am only little myself so be very nice! Here is a preview of the next chapter.

Chapter two: Ana realizes the truth.

Ana awoke one morning to see her sisters playing in the garden and her brothers were building something. Then she turned her head to see her mother. "What time is it mother? Why am I still sleeping, seeing the rest of them are awake and all?" Ana asked. Riza just smiled. Ana coughed and Riza patted her on the back. "Sweetie, you are sick. Your face is all red and you are coughing like it's going out of fashion" Riza never gave simple answers to Ana. After all, Ana was the smartest child in the family. And she was a Hawkeye!
