Unluckily for all of them on the way out of the room Winry ran into Havoc, Roy, and Furey. Curious about the noise they walked towards the room of the FullMetal Alchemist. "What was that noise!" Asked Havoc, knocking on the door. Furey and Roy shrugged and waited for Ed to open the door. They were surprised to see the blonde girl from earlier open the door, tousled haired and rubbing sleep from her eyes. At the sight of them her eyes widened and she groaned.
"Damn it!" She breathed, and stood by to let them in. "Ed, brace yourself." Sam whispered as the men walked into the room.
They were greeted by quite a sight. Lexi asleep on the couch, Al reading a book in the corner and Ed with his new black eye and bruised stomach. "So Ed," said Havoc slyly, lighting a cigarette, "What did you do tonight?" Ed grimaced and sat down on the bed next to Sam.
"Nothing much," said Sam, trying to use a blanket to cover up the pants that she was borrowing from Ed.
"You do have a fascination with wearing his clothes." Said Roy with a laugh. "Are you sure we don't need to have that talk Edward?"
Ed and Samantha blushed matching shades of red.
"Now," said Roy with a laugh, "What did you two do tonight?"
"Well, Colonel Jackass," said Ed with a mischievous grin. "I ate some noodles, did some research and passed out on the floor. Then Winry came in and beat me up for no apparent reason. What did you do Colonel?"
Roy shrugged and smirked slightly, "Nothin' much. I had a wonderful time with the girl from the flower shop."
Havoc' cigarette fell from his mouth, "Grace? Is that why she was being so distant with me! Because she slept with you!"
Ed and Samantha laughed openly, while Al simply snickered from his corner.
"Colonel, if you're done here I would like to got to sleep." Said Furey with a yawn. "Its two in the morning."
"Since there's nothing going on here I think it's safe for us to go." Said the Colonel with a mock salute at Ed.
As soon as they were out of the room Al burst out laughing. "Your faces when they walked into the room! You two looked like you might die!"
Ed stared moodily at the door. "What did Winry want?" He asked, staring at his hands now.
Al shook his head, "No idea. Brother you might want to go see if you can try to talk to her."
"And get another wrench thrown at me! No way."
Al shook his head, "Brother you're hopeless." He laid his head on the side of the couch and was asleep in seconds.
Samantha sat down on the edge of the bed and began to braid her long hair. "Here," said Ed, sitting down behind her. "I'll do it." Samantha blushed slightly, but let him braid her hair. "You smell like peppermint." He said, placing his hands on hers.
"And you need to go to sleep. I don't care how hot you are, you're delirious." Samantha smiled and removed his hands.
"Ouch, cold," Said Ed, small rain clouds appearing above his head.
"You can sleep on the bed though." Said Samantha with a smile. Ed grinned and lay down, but immediately jumped back up. "Ouch," he said, pulling a book from beneath his back. "Pointy corners."
Samantha laughed and sat down on the floor, her back against the bedpost. Within a few moments she was asleep. Ed looked down at her sleeping form and covered it with a blanket. She shifted slightly and let out a small sigh. Ed rolled onto his back and was asleep within moments.
Lexi was the first to wake the next morning, seeing that she was the one who slept through everything. She stretched and yawned, looking around the room. Al was leaning against the couch, still asleep. Ed was sleeping on the bed, and Samantha on the floor. Lexi grabbed her shoes and walked out the door and down the hall. She walked out onto the street, mostly empty because it was so early. She wandered around the town for a while, and then began to head back to the room, the others might get worried.
Al was the next one to wake up. He stood up as quietly as possible, because Samantha and Ed were still sleeping. 'He loves her.' Thought Al, opening the door. At that exact moment Winry happened to be walking towards the door. They collided with a crash loud enough to wake the dead, or at least Ed and Samantha.
"WHAT THE…" Began Ed, running out the door. He immediately saw Winry's angry face and ran back inside.
"Ed!" She yelled, running into the room behind him, "We need to talk!"
"Should we leave them alone?" Asked Samantha, looking nervously at the door.
Al nodded and led her down to the mess hall, "They always get over it in the end."
Ed backed against the wall as Winry entered the room. "Don't come near me…" He said a fearful look in his eyes.
"Its okay," said Winry, shutting the door. "I'm not gonna kill you or anything."
Ed looked like he doubted that, but he grabbed a shirt and pulled it on over his bruised chest.
"Who's that girl?" Asked Winry, sitting down on the floor cross legged.
"Just a girl I know. And just for the record she is NOT my girlfriend. Simply my friend who's helping me and Al with some research."
Winry snorted, "Reserch on what? The female body?"
Ed let out an exasperated sigh, "Why does EVERYONE THINK WE'RE SLEEPING TOGETHER!" He yelled, pounding a pillow.
Winry laughed, "Well, if you two aren't together…" She smirked, "Then she wouldn't care if you did this…" Winry leaned in close to him and kissed him, her tongue going deep into his mouth.
"Brother, we brought you some breakfast! Look who wanted to eat with us too!" Said Al, leading Lexi, Sam, Roy, and Havoc into their room.
"Umm…" Said Samantha, setting the food down on the table. "We'll just go. You two don't seem to need anyone else." Samantha dashed out of the door, and they thought there were tears on her face.
Ed broke the kiss and stared at Winry. "I can't believe you," He said, then raced out the door after Samantha.
Lexi looked accusingly at Winry. "Okay, I've officially decided that this place has more drama then a soap opera back home."
