StIP: and just to let you all know, I thank you for reviewing. You are the only reason I continue this story. And also if I don't give shout outs it's because my chapters are already pre-written, but I do enjoy your reviews, and I'm grateful for them... really I am!

Chapter begins

Ed looked around for the culprit who decided to wake him so rudely. "Come on out, I swear I won't hurt you." Ed said smiling a psychotic smile.

-Where Sei and Al are-

"Sei? Do you really think it was appropriate for us to wake brother like that?" Al asked.

"Of course, he wouldn't wake up. We tried shaking him, and talking to him, and slapping him, which was a very good idea." Sei replied holding up her hand that was throbbing and red. "And none of our methods worked so the last resort is a nice refreshing dip if you will." Sei smiled psychotically. Al shivered.

The branch beneath Al and Sei cracked, they were in a tree. "Um, Sei?"

"Yeah Al? What's up?"

"The branch beneath me just cracked." Al said a bit worried.

Sei's face dropped, "Eh?" just then the branch broke off completely, Al and Sei fell with it.

Ed glaring, heard a scream, and then a loud thud behind him. Turning around he saw a slightly dazed Sei, and Al who was shaking Sei.

"Are you all right." Al shouted rocking Sei back and forth, she only laughed.

"Of course dear Alphonse. Why wouldn't I be." She said getting up unsteadily.

Ed stalked over toward her. "What the hell do you think you're doing." Ed shouted as he grabbed Sei roughly. She blinked, "Oh Edward. I see you're awake. It's a beautiful morning eh?" She said before getting all serious. "Why is everything red?"

Ed gave Al a baffled look, "What the hell happened to her?" Ed asked still supporting Sei who was unable to stand up strait.

"She fell from the tree, I believe she hit her head on the way down." Al said sounding guilty.

"You know everything seems to be really shaky too." Sei said breaking away from Ed's grip. "And my head hurts." She said sitting down suddenly. Ed ran over to her, Al also right by her side.

"Sheesh I think you have a concussion." Ed said holding Sei's face looking into her eyes.

"Nah, my heads too hard." Sei said grimacing. "Just give me a few minutes and I'll be back to normal... Well as normal as I can get." Sei brushed her self off grinning. Ed glaring at Al kept glancing over at Sei giving her worried glances. A few minutes later she was still a bit shaky but seemed to be regaining some intelligence. "I feel as if my head has been cracked open." Sei muttered while holding a wet rag to her head.

"Are you sure you're okay? That was a pretty long fall." Al said dampening another rag and exchanging it for the rag she held to her head.

"Hn, I've had worse accidents. If I wasn't okay I'd... uh.. I'd probably die... but it's all okay." Sei said grimacing. "But we shouldn't let this slow us down, we should be heading out soon." She nodding her head, standing up. "And anyways my head only aches now. Before it was pounding. In a few hours, this whole accident will be only a memory."

"Are you sure? I think we should rest a little while before heading out." Ed said rushing over to Sei, ready to catch her incase she fell.

"Well I'm heading out. I know you guys are delaying because of that incident. If you want to stay a bit longer, go ahead but I'm leaving. I want to reach the next town by night; if possible of course." Sei said passing Al, Ed was following close behind.

"If you travel in this condition you'll only hurt yourself." Ed ran in front of Sei's path scowling.

"And your point is? I pull stunts like this all the time." Sei said tilting her head.

Ed's blinked, Sei took this opportunity to get around him. "Hey! Get back here." Ed yelled dashing after Sei as she took off in a sprint.

"Catch me if you can!" She taunted disappearing behind the trees.

"Al, hurry. She'll get hurt if she runs off on her own." Ed yelled frantically running after Sei.

Frantic, Ed looked everywhere. "Dammit Sei, where in the hell are you!" Ed shouted exhausted from running.

"Brother I found her!" Al shouted not to far off.

"Let me go! Please, I beg you let me go. I won't run off I swear." Sei pleaded trying to break Al's grip. Ed stormed up fuming with anger. "Pwetty Pweese?" Sei batted her eyelashes trying to give off a innocent look.

"Al let her go." Ed said calmly, Sei gave Ed a careful glance as she rubbed her wrist. Ed didn't break his gaze from her, the silence stretched.

Looking down meekly Sei apologized, "Edward, I'm sorry I ran off like that. I was just angry that you can't understand that I'm not the type to let a injury slow me down, and you treating me like a kid, well... I guess it ticked me off." Sei looked up cautiously.

"That's no reason to act like an idiot and go off like that! You could've hurt yourself." Ed shouted.

Sei's eyes showed wonderment, "Why would you care if I hurt myself?" She asked. Ed blinked unable to answer. "Do you really care for me?"

"Of course not," he replied looking away.

"Look me in the eyes and say it." Sei demanded, Ed turned around walked off.

"Let's go. We're wasting time."

Sei smiled, and ran up beside Ed. "Are you blushing?" She asked, Ed's cheeks colored even more.

"No." He denied calmly.

"Really, because it looks as if your blushing to me." She replied.

"I'M NOT BLUSHING!" Ed yelled angrilly.

"If you say so." She shrugged looking away. HA HA, he's so embarrassed. It's adorable, Ed blushing, cute. Sei thought as a smile appeared on her face.

"Why are you smiling Sei?" Al asked. Sei looked at him alarmed.

"Uh.. nothing, just a funny thought." She replied.

"Are you thinking about brother?" Al asked, Sei began to blush like crazy.

"Of... Of course not!" She stammered attempting to look serious but failing miserably.

Ed looked at her smiling, "Really because it looks as if you're lying." Ed smirked. Glaring Sei looked ahead, Damn karma. It can die for all I care! She thought, her cheeks still red. The silence between the stretched.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Ed asked tauntingly.

"I prefer not to comment." Sei replied with a chilly voice.

"That's because you were thinking about me." Ed replied smirking.

"Why would you care?" She said with a slyness, Ed eyes widened in surprise. "What, do you like me?"

Ed remained silent. Sei looked over at him to see him looking up at the clouds, his cheeks were crimson. Al stared at the two in wonderment.

"Sei do you like my brother?" Al asked.

Sei smiled fondly, Ed looked over at her curious. She laughed nervously, "I uh.. I suppose." She stopped, looking at the ground. Her cheeks a new shade of red, and the smile still on her face. Ed's jaw dropped and he stopped walking too, staring at her. She looked up briefly seeing Ed staring at her. The smile dissapaered, quickly she walked past him muttering. Ed followed a little feet behind her. Al walked beside Ed, Sei a few feet in front of them.

"Brother do you like Sei?" Al asked.

Ed smiled weakly replying faintly, "Yeah."

"Then why don't you talk to her?"

"I... I CAN'T DO THAT!" Ed replied frantically.

"Brother, she probably thinks that you don't like her. Do you really want her to think that?"

"No, but what should I do?"

"Be yourself." Al answered pushing Ed toward Sei.

"Uh.. hi." Ed replied looking away from Sei.

"Hi." She replied quietly, "I'm sorry about the whole waking method I used." She looked guilty at the ground.

"SO IT WAS YOU!" Ed shouted stopping in his tracks.

"I tried waking you, but you wouldn't stir." She replied trying to justify her actions. She stopped also.

"THAT DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO WAKE SOMEBODY BY TRYING TO DROWN THEM!"

"YOU WOULDN'T WAKE UP, YOU WOOL HEADED NINNY! AND BELIEVE ME, I TRIED!" Sei shouted, glaring at Ed.

"YEAH! WELL THAT STILL DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT SHORTY!" Ed yelled at the top of his lungs.

"ME SHORT! WELL ATLEAST MY FRIENDS ARE TALLER THAN YOU, AND THEY'RE GIRLS!"

"SO NOW YOU'RE CALLING ME SHORT! ATLEAST I'VE GOT AN INCH ON YA!" Ed glared at Sei.

"DAMN STRAIT I'M CALLIN YA SHORT, AT LEAST I'VE GOT SHOES TALLER THAN YOU!"

"IS THAT SO, PROVE IT!"

"FINE I WILL!" Sei knelt down and drew a transmutation circle in the dirt. Then boots appeared, that were 3 inches tall. Putting them on she stood above Ed, "These look like Senko's boots." She murmured.

-At Denburg High-
"So where's Sei? She's not here today." Senko questioned Rae as they walked down the crowded hallway.

"Who knows..." Rae replied while attempting to dig something out of her bag.

"Probably skippi- Ahhhhh" Senko yelled as she suddenly toppled to the ground three inches shorter.

"What the seven hells was that for!" Questioned Rae who was now attempting to gather the spilt items of her backpack that fell when Senko pulled her down.

"MY BOOTS ARE GONE! WHY IN THE HELL ARE MY BOOTS GONE?" Senko screamed dramatically throwing her arms in the air only to be trampled by random high school students who's way she was in. (SD: The halls are very dangerous StIP: you said it.)

-Back with Sei and Ed-

"BIG DEAL, I'VE COULD'VE DONE THAT!"

"AT LEAST I CAN GET A MAN, MAN NOT BOY, WHO'S TALLER THAN ME! IT'D BE A MIRACLE IF YOU COULD GET A GIRLFRIEND WHO'S SHORTER THAN YOURSELF!"

"What about you!" Ed replied challengingly.

Sei blinked, "Wha.. WHAT THE HELL! WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT?"

"You heard me, what about you being my girlfriend. You're shorter than me so I would have a girlfriend shorter than myself." Ed grinned.

"So now were back to calling me short."She replied hanging her head. "I'll think about the offer though." Sei smiled looking up, Ed gaped just realizing what she said.

"Come on I just asked you out, I know you like me, why won't you answer?"

"Heh, I feel like I'm going to fall flat on my face wearing these boots." She replied avoiding the question, and taking them off.

"Brother, Sei, what's going on here?" Al asked walking up sounding alarmed.

"Nothing," Ed replied looking away. "We better keep going." he replied walking off.

"Sei did anything happen between you two?" Al asked.

"Nothing much." She replied before Ed interrupted them.

"I think I see a town ahead." he said squinting his eyes.
