-----Chapter 4: Back Home-----
Ashley and Kathy where getting ready to spend 5 days at thier mother's house before they leave for thier huge trip. Ashley held hands with Ed (aw!) until they reached outside. Then Kathy rapped her arm around Al's. (also aw!) It was extremly windy and freezing outside.
"I thought it would be warm." Ashley said.
"Here have my coat." Ed told Ashley as he put his coat on Ashley's shoulders. Ashley and Ed blush 20 shades of red. Kathy sighed.
"Hey Al." Whispeared Roy. Ashley faced over her shoulder. She saw Roy give Al a coat just to catch up to the romance of Ashley and Edward. Al placed the black long coat on Kathy. Kathy blushed then Ashley snickered.
"What?" Kathy questioned Ashley. Ashley shot the other way around. Like she couldnt hear Kathy's question. Then Kathy and Ashley walked away with thier mother.
It was a day later on the train when Kathy was blushing.
"What is it?" Ashley asked Kathy.
"This note I found." Kathy answered.
But that is Roy's coat! Ashley thought with worry.
"Um...what...it says?"
"First of all its what does it say and it says:
Dear Kathy-
Your are dreamy,
I think of you night and day,
Your so bueatiful,
eyes,
hair,
everything,
you always make my day.
From, Al" Ashley sighed.
"He only knew you loved him for one day, but I guess he just likes to rush."
"What? Your the one who is rushing!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"God! Why are we fighting about this?"
"I have no clue. But you and Ed are rushing."
"No."
"Please. Ed giving you his jacket..."
"So."
"You holding hands."
"We at least Ed-" Ashley was about to blurt out about that note Al didnt write, and that is not Al's coat.
"Ed..."
"Held my hand too. You just rapped your arm around him. He didnt even agree."
"So. It is a lie."
"Please. You love him."
"No I dont."
"Then why did you hold hands."
"We didnt and to fool mother."
"Well at least he likes you. He would be heart broken if you didnt love him and he wrote that letter."
"Um...I can always pretend-"
"You like him."
"No I dont."
"Yes you do."
"Here we go fighting again, just stop fighting."
"Fine...you like him."
"SHUT UP!" Ashley became quite after that. An hour later then train came to a hault.
They got off the train. The smell of fresh air filled Kathy and Ashley's noses. It was great farm land.
"Came on girls. We need to get home and call your father." Margret said.
We called Lt. Cornal Parker.
"Hello? Lt. Cornal Parker speaking." a voice said.
"Hey father!" Ashley yelled with excitment. Each person had at the max 5 minutes to talk on the phone.
"So now you know my number."
"Why didnt you call us?"
"I was too busy honey."
"Thats okay."
"So hows life."
"Um...fine. Oh, five minutes are up. Here is Kathy. Love ya father!"
"I love you too sweetie." Kathy picked up the phone.
"Hi father." Kathy said.
"Hi honey. Hows life."
"Doing great."
"So do you have any boyfriends yet."
"Why didnt you ask Ashley that?"
"Well because she is younger then you-"
"Only by a year."
"11 months, but just answer the question."
"Yes!"
"Whats his name?"
"Alphonse Elric."
"A very nice name. Is he wealthy?"
"Father!"
"Im just asking."
"Oh five minutes are up. Here is mother. Bye!"
"Okay bye."
Thier mother picked up the phone and then talked for an hour.
"I miss Ed." Ashley said with a sigh while sitting next to Kathy on the couch.
"I miss Al." Kathy said back.
"KATHY LOVES AL! KATHY LOVES AL!"
"WOULD YOU SHUT UP ABOUT THAT?"
"I WILL NTO BE SILENCED!" then Kathy and Ashley strated to laugh.
"Ashley!" Magret yelled. Ashley gulpped.
"Yes mother?" Ashley asked.
"You never told your father about Edward."
"Well five minutes where up by the time I could get to that."
"He wants to talk to you again." Ashley walked up to Margret. Thier mother covered the talking part of the phone.
"Okay."
"Pst. I didnt and I will never tell your father of the smoking." Margret whispeared. Ashley smiled then grabbed the phone.
"Hello?"
"Is he weathly?" thier father asked Ashley. Ashley snickered.
"He is a state alchemist-"
"Oh good, then he is weathly. Is Alphonse a state alchemist?"
"No, but Al is Ed's younger brother."
"Younger? How young?"
"Well Ed is 15 and Al is 14."
"WHAT? My daughter is going out with a 14 year old and she is 17."
"I really dont care about her, but at least im only dating some 1 year younger then me."
"Okay, I want to talk to your mtoher now."
"FINE!" Ashley threw the phone to Margret. Margret and thier father where fighting about who Kathy and Ashley where in love with.
"I wish they would stop fighting." Kathy said while with Ashley and her where in Ashley's room. Ashley's room was red and black stripped. She had a queen sized bed and a huge oak desk for studies.
"Me too." Ashley said back. The girls sat there for about an hour till thier mother got off the phone. Margret came in Ashley's room.
"It took me a while but yes you guys can go on you huge trip with your boyfriends." Margret said while sighing. Ashley and Kathy hugged thier mother tightly.
"Thanks mother!" They both yelled with joy. It was 2 days later then Kathy and Ashley entered the train.
"I cant wait." Ashley said.
"Ethier can I. We finally can go on a quest." Kathy said back.
"Yeah...Lets practice alchemy."
"ALCHEMY!"
"Yeah. Come on!"
"Okay!" Ashley practiced by turning empty soda can its little horse sculpture. And Kathy turned little glass ice into little ice swans. It was loads of fun to practice. The enxt day the train came to a hult. And at the train stop was Ed and Al waiting for them. (AW!)
