FullmetalMustang- I'll probably consult you and Kara-Chan again, I force her to read my ff's while I'm sleeping in S.S class XP

RyukoGirl- Thanks, I know I'm an amateur compared to most other people, so its nice to hear these nice comments

BlackmercifulFaerie- It's a fan fic... I HATE history...but thanks for the advice XD I'll try to become as best as I can at writing RoyxEd!

silverfoxakavash- That's why I started this fic Yay RoyxEd!

YuriYuki- I saw it when Roy first saw Ed. I literally stared at the TV, " Omg, this is the best yaoi pair ever..." And there starts my obsession... : thinks : Hey, that'd be another good ff:: scribbles it down :

Thanks for being an inspiration : kind of : lol.

If I forgot anybody up there sorry . I'm just one person, with a lot of homework, and an annoying little bro. ((Can't exactly write yaoi when he's around XP)). Anyway, I need to make a HUGE apology. To those out there who were hoping for smut in here, don't hold your breath... I'm debating on whether or not to not use any lemon in this particular story. I've gotten many comments about the cute fluffy-ness, so I might keep it that way. Sorry again . But, the good thing is that it's still on my mind, so far though, fluff is winning: 10-4

Anyway, onto Chapter 3 More fluff. : is proud :

Ed woke up the next morning hugging a couch pillow. Roy was obviously already up; the smell of coffee practically flooded the place. Drowsily, the young blonde sat up and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. Mumbling to himself, he fell back onto the couch lazily.

Roy walked in with his usual cup of coffee, " Well, good morning Ed." he said. His upbeat attitude only served to put Ed in a slight bad mood.

" Why the heck are you so cheerful?" Ed grumbled, not bothering to move.

Roy shrugged and took a sip of his coffee, " I don't really know. " He walked over and sat down next to Ed, earning a glare. " Why are you so upset?"

Ed continued to glare at him, " What time is it Roy?" He asked, attempting to sit up.

Roy laughed, " Time for you to get off the couch Ed."

" That's not the answer I was looking for..."

" I know."

" Then answer my question..."

" Now why would I do that Edward?"

" ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION!" Ed was now standing on the couch, glaring at Roy again.

Roy's plan worked, " Great, you're up. Now go get the mail please."

" YOU LAZY BASTARD!" Ed jumped off the couch and walked to the door, " You want your pipe and slippers too?"

Roy shrugged, " Maybe later." He knew it was a rhetorical question, he was just having fun tormenting Ed. Example: He'd already gotten the mail.

Ed stormed over to the mailbox, " damn colonel... stupid mail... I hate the mornings..." He opened the small door and looked inside " What the hell..." The mailbox was empty. Nothing. Not even a magazine. One of the neighbors gave Ed a funny look.

" Hey kid, what are you doing?" He asked as he let a dog outside.

" I was getting the mail..."

" Why? The Colonel already brought it in. I saw him."

"..."

" Heh heh." The neighbor went inside his house and left Ed to think, or rather, simmer.

" DAMN YOU ROY!" Ed stalked back into the house, only to find that Roy had snuck out the back door. A small note was on the wall:

Edward,

I've gone out. Don't bother looking for me, I'll be back around 2.

- Roy.

Ed crumpled the note in his fist, " Lets see how he like me crashing his little party..." He threw the note in the waste basket and began making a list of the places where Roy might be. Maes' house, Hq, the store, the bar, etc. The young boy didn't even bother to try and disguise himself. He fixed his braid, pulled on his gloves and jacket, and set off, leaving a note for Roy just in case:

Don't get your hopes up, bastard!

-Ed : scribble of self :

Ed's first stop was at the Hughes house. He knocked on the door. From inside you could hear Elysia's shouts of " Daddy! The door is knocking again!" After a short while, Maes opened the door, holding Elysia to get her to calm down.

" Ed, what's the matter?" He asked, seeing the look on Ed's face.

" Is the Colonel here?" Ed said, trying not to get angry in front of Elysia.

Maes shook his head, " No. Why?"

Ed mumbled something; " Do you know where he is? "

" Did you try Hq and the Bar yet?"

" Not yet."

" Well, try there. If you still don't find him, call me and I'll help you."

Ed nodded his thanks and waved goodbye, heading towards Hq. - Damn Colonel, if he thinks this is fun then he's got another thing coming! - The furious blonde thought. When Hq came into view, Ed almost didn't want to go inside. He opened the door and entered the usual chaos. People wandering about doing their business and such. Ed made his way to Riza's office. He knocked on the door, " Lieutenant; it's Ed." he called through the door.

" Come in Ed." she called back.

Before Ed could say anything she looked up at him, " Let me take a guess, you can't find the Colonel?"

Ed sighed, " No. Maes told me to look here." He sat down on a chair, staring at the floor.

" I'm sorry I can't help you. The Colonel hasn't been here all day. " She apologized, glancing down at Black Hayate and finishing some papers.

Ed stood up, " All right thanks." He said, walking out the door without another word.

He checked the bar; he checked everywhere he could think of. Still no Roy to be found. Ed was about to give up. Then, he did give up. " Hmph. I don't need that bastard. I'll just go to Resembool." With that, Ed went to the train station, plotting revenge.

He had previously called Winry. So, when he arrived at Resembool she wasn't too surprised. She smiled and waved, " Hey Ed!"

Ed managed a smile, " Hey Winry. Where's Al?" He asked, walking over. He had just walked there from the train station.

Winry pointed to the house, " He's inside. Come on!" She said happily. Ed nodded and followed her inside. Oh and by the way, did I mention Al has his body back?

When they got inside the 14 year old version of Alphonse came running out of the other room, " Brother!", tackle hugging Ed. The hug nearly made Ed fall. Even now, Al was still just a bit taller than Ed.

Ed choked and smiled at his brother, " Nice to see you too Al!" A hint of sadness was in Ed's voice. He wasn't even in Resembool for 15 minutes and he missed Central.

xXx

After a few days at Resembool, Ed was getting tired of Winry too. Constantly asking him about what happened to make him come here and everything. It's about 2:00 in the afternoon now and Ed and Winry are fighting again.

" Will you just listen to me Ed?"

" Why should I!"

" I'm just try to help! You're even turning away from Alphonse!"

" Just leave me alone for three minutes and maybe I wouldn't be in such a foul mood!"

" Ed!"

" What!"

" Please, just please listen to me for one minute! "

Ed didn't reply. He stared at the grass they were standing on for quite a long time.

" Well?" Winry demanded. Her arms were folded across her chest. She wasn't ready to give up yet.

Ed scoffed and mumbled, " fine..."

Winry was slightly relieved, " Okay. Al and me are really worried Ed. You've never been like this before. Why, Ed? What happened, was it that bad?" It's funny. All it took was one more joke that Ed hated to send him over the edge.

Ed was quiet for a minute, " I don't really want to talk about it right now Winry. " That was it.

Winry sighed, " I should've known... Fine Ed. Stay here and sulk." She said, walking inside and leaving Ed there.

xXx

Inside, everything was quiet. Granny Pinako was playing cards with Al and the dog was asleep. Granny Pinako turned to face Winry, " So?" She asked, proceeding to beat Al at the game. The boy just sighed and dropped the rest of his cards on the table.

Winry pulled up a chair and sat down, " No luck. He listened to me, but he still wont say what's wrong."

Granny Pinako shuffled the cards and began dealing another round for her and Al, " Did you try calling the Colonel?"

" He's at work right now isn't he?"

" So?" Al added. " The Colonel will probably listen if it's about brother."

Winry thought for a minute, " You know Al, you're right. " She said, getting up and going over to the phone, " What's the number for Central Hq?"

xXx

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

" Good afternoon, Central Head quarters." Riza's voice said.

Winry swallowed hard, " Um, hello. It's Winry Rockbell. Could I please talk to Colonel Mustang?"

Riza laughed slightly, " Yes, please hold on."

Winry sighed, she wasn't yelled at XD

Soon, Roy's voice came over the phone, " Winry?" He asked.

" Colonel, I'm sorry were you busy?"

" No." he said, glancing at the pile of neglected paperwork, " What's wrong?"

" It's Ed. He came here, and now he won't talk to anyone. He wont even tell us what's wrong. He only listened to me once just now. Do you know anything?"

Roy smiled to himself as he realized that he needed Ed as much as Ed needed him. No matter what. " What time do you want me to come down there?" He asked, more interested than before.

Winry gasped in surprise, " You'll come down! Thanks Colonel! Could you come by after work?" She said happily.

Roy smirked, " Okay Winry. I'll be down after work then."

Winry's delighted laughter made Roy's day just a little better. She hung up the phone before Roy could say anything else. Roy hung up as well, preparing to finish the horrible paperwork.

Back at Resembool, Winry was beside herself, " Yes! Now Ed will have to listen! He cant say no to Roy, he never could!"

Al smiled at Winry, " So the Colonels coming?" He asked, once again being beaten at cards by Granny Pinako.

Winry nodded, " Yup! After work though! Should we tell Ed?"

Granny pinako shook her head, " No. With the mood he's in he'll probably yell at you, then run off." Wow, she hit the nail on the head as they say.
