Chapter 5

Night alone Pt. 1

Ed was laying on the couch looking for something, anything to watch on t.v. that looked half decent. It was getting cloudy and dark out. The wind picked up. A storm was approaching fast. It was lighting and thundering before any rain dropped. It was going to be a big one. After a few more lighting strikes, he decided to turn off the t.v. and close up all the windows and doors. Winry was upstairs ahead of Ed. She was making sure the windows upstairs was tightly closed before going downstairs. She was rounding the corner, after closing the boys window, and bumped into Ed. "Oh hey..."

"What you doing Win?"

"Closing the windows, it's going to be a bad storm tonight."

"I know, I just got done doing the downstairs windows and doors."

"Well lets go downstairs. I don't know about you but man I'm hungry!" Winry rubbed her stomach. Ed laughed at her. "Same here." They walked downstairs and into the kitchen. Ed sat down in a chair while Winry was going threw the frigde looking for something to eat. Then all of the sudden the power went off. "Great..." Ed said with a hint of sarcasim. Winry laughed at him. Ed got up and stretched. "Well I better go and see if I can turn the power back on." Winry grabbed his arm to stop him.

"No Ed. You better not go out there. Your arm might attrach the lighting." Ed thought for a minute.

"Well do you want to be sitting in the dark?"

"It's better than you being fried by lighting. And plus, we can just have some candles lit. It's no big deal."

"Yeah your right. And by the looks of it, this storm is going to be big so even if we do get the power on, it might just go out again."

"Hopefully its not too bad. I hate thunderstorms when there bad." Ed gave her a slight smile and went to the living room. He just dropped himself on it. A few minutes later, Winry walked in with a few candles and a lighter. She put the candles on the table. She then lit them and then she slouched down on the couch. Ed was tring not to laugh at how funny Winry looked.

The winds got a lot harsher and branches were starting to break and fall off. All of the sudden rain was coming down at a high rate of speed. It was pounding on everything it touched. Winry got scared and practicly jumped on Ed. He was holding her as close and tight as posible. He was holding her like a baby, she was sitting on his lap side ways and her head was burried in his chest. It was starting to get cold so he put a blanket on Winry. He was pretty warm since Winry was ontop of him but he could tell she was cold because she was starting to shiver.

After a while they went into the kitchen again. Ed was carrying some of the candles so they could see where they are going. Winry was walking behind him with the blanket wrapped around her. Ed put the candles on the table and saw Winry leaning against the wall. He walked over to her and put his arms around her waist. She put her arms around his neck.
