Summary: Rated T for blood loss. (eye roll) "Sometimes the most amazing things can happen...sometimes, no matter how loosely or tightly you hold onto him or her, your love, your dream, he or she will slip right through your fingers."
Disclaimer: If I owned Full Metal Alchemist, Riza Hawkeye would still be doing the opening for the anime. I like the sound of her voice.
Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon…
Roy Mustang reminded her of the sun. His attitude gave him a larger-than-life feel, and so many seemed to gravitate toward him. He was steady, never wavering in his convictions. He was also one of those people who you were sure would be there, today, tomorrow, whenever you needed him. And, let's face it; he was hot. Just like our sun.
Riza Hawkeye reminded her of the moon. She had a cool, calming demeanor. She was strong enough to stand alone, but she got her extra boost from another source. Although she withdrew every once in a while, you knew she was coming back. She was also very pretty, whether or not she realized it, like the moon.
The normal order would be that the moon circles the Earth, which in turn circles the sun. That order was turned upside down. She hadn't seen them anytime near when Lt. Colonel—I mean Brigadier General—Hughes was killed. But when the girl returned, she saw that now, Colonel Mustang's sanity revolved around First Lieutenant Hawkeye. The sun was insecure since the earth was gone. Now the sun revolved around the moon.
No, I'm wrong. They'd taken to revolving around each other. They both needed each other. That's the relationship the mechanic wanted with the alchemist. If only he'd let her. So sometimes she could revolve around him; and sometimes he could revolve around her.
(A/N: Thanks for all the reviews! You really don't know how appreciated they are. I know this drabble isn't too good, but it was hard coming up with one for this line. Just bear with me. Thanx!)
