CHAPTER 11 – Sunlight Comes Again
Roy felt something warming his bare back. The feeling felt cozy but not as warm as the body in his arms. The body he held close to his chest cuddled closer. Not that it was possible to be any nearer, he held her in his arms as Roy watched her sleep. For the second time in his life he was in heaven. He didn't want this moment to end.
Roy stroked the blonde hair of the woman next to him. Her hair smelt of gunpowder and lavender. The two scents mixed smelt oddly relaxing. Running his hand through her hair while his other arm held her close to his body. He watched as her eyes clinched tightly to block out the morning light. Reluctantly her eyes opened letting the sun's rays hit them so they shone.
---
She could feel something touching her; something wrapped around her waist. She could feel a bare chest against her hands. She suddenly saw the light. An orange glow beamed through her closed eyes.
No… its morning already… it can't be… she thought. Unwillingly she lifted her eyelids. As soon as she did so, Riza was blinded by a bright light. Immediately Riza shut her eyes. A dark shadow then appeared over her face. Only then did she reopen her eyes. Now she stared up into blackness.
"Not liking the sun this morning I see." He smirked. Riza groaned in return and rolled over onto her stomach. He rubbed her back in a caring way. Then he began to draw pictures. In reality you could call them lines that connected. First he drew a heart that covered her entire back. Then she could feel him write an 'R' on the left side of her back. Next she could feel an 'and' sign. Lastly another 'R' was placed on the right of her back on top of her shoulder blade.
Riza moved, not out of discomfort just out of a spasm in her back where he had left the last 'R'. Suddenly she could feel her shirt being pushed up to her neck where his hand rested there to keep it up. Then she felt them. The kisses he left on her bare back. The sensation they gave her sent a shiver through her body. His free hand crept underneath her body to he stomach where it stayed. His kisses were planted on various spot. A couple on the right and several on the left of her shoulder blades.
"Roy…" Riza struggled to say. The kisses were sending her into a state of enjoyment. Rolling over so that they were face to face she found just how close he was. From the back of her shirt being pushed up, when she rolled over the front of her shirt did the same. Thankfully for Riza the shirt had only been able to go up as far as a few inches below her chest.
---
He watched her torso lightly push up then fall down. He lowered his lips to her belly button where he pressed his lips softly to the skin. Riza squirmed from contact. He slowly kissed from her belly button to the beginning of her shirt. That's where he skipped up to her neck, passed the lining of her jaw to her cherry red lips.
Roy captured her lips in his pulling gently on hers. He nibbled her bottom lip as his hands ran up her bare back. Riza's hands found their way to his hair and were gently massaging his scalp. They were interrupted by a yip from somewhere beneath the tangle sheets. Unlatching his lips from Riza's, he pulled back one of the covers Roy found the pup panting. By surprise Riza began to laugh.
Roy looked down at her from above. He was leaning over her, his black hair falling into his eyes. Although Riza pushed them back with her delicate fingers they still fell in his eyes.
"What are you laughing at?" Roy asked her.
"You of course." Riza smiled back.
Without warning Riza yanked playfully down so he fell to the left of her body. Her lips found their way on his neck up to his open mouth where she seized his lips in a kiss. In return of the yanking Roy smoothly inserted his tongue into her mouth. That's where he went crazy.
His tongue traced the walls of her mouth. Leaving nowhere untouched he pulled away for some air. They both stared each other in the eyes. Mahogany to charcoal.

Riza released his body from her grip and was about to clamber out of bed. She felt her body being forced downward. Her body landed a top his shirtless chest. Her hands were placed near where his shoulders and collar bone meet.
"Where do you think you're going?" Roy asked. Riza unusually smirked.
"No where I guess." Riza replied and laid her head just under his chest. Despite it being a Tuesday, Riza didn't resist Roy's arms. They lied there in silence for a few minutes listening to each other's heartbeat.
"Thanks for letting me stay last night." Roy broke the silence.
"Your welcome." Riza responded, "We better get ready. It's Tuesday you know…"
Roy groaned and held onto Riza even tighter preventing her from removing herself from the bed.
"Come on Roy… it's not that bad. Once work's over…" Riza stopped. A devilish smile had befallen Roy's face, "What?"
She knew what he was thinking, she just was hoping it wasn't what she thought it was.
"Oh nothing," the smile still attached to his face, "nothing at all." Riza disliked the smirk he was giving her now. Forcefully tugged herself out of his arms, she climb out of bed. Something clasped around her wrist. She looked back to him.
The sight she saw was this. The skin on his body down to his waist was exposed and shone in the light of the sun. The white sheets around him glowed from daybreak's shaft. Roy's hand fastened around her wrist.
"You know I didn't mean anything… bad by what I said right?" He questioned. His expression showed a hint of guilt. A small smile crept across her face. Riza was unable to stop it.
"I did." Riza replied. Roy's expression changed to uncertainty, "Really, I did know." Riza ruffled his hair in reassurance and headed out the bedroom door.

Roy watched her leave. Sitting up in her bed he looked around the lit room. The time before he hadn't really noticed the room they had slept in. It wasn't anything fancy a bit plain but Roy didn't mind. On the table beside the bed was a lamp with a white shade and a digital alarm clock sat beside it. The clock read 7:00AM.
I bet she gets up hours before this time. That's why she's always at the office before everyone else.
Alongside the clock was a picture. Moving closer to see whom it was he was stunned to find that he was looking back at himself. It was a picture of him no doubt. Even if it was an old picture he could still recognize his black hair and smile.
Gazing across the room he noticed that the walls were white as were all the sheets and curtains. Roy didn't like the color white that much cause it made him feel as if he were in an insane asylum. For so odd reason the room wasn't like that at all, it was almost pleasant. Keyword, almost.
A movement on the bed alerted Roy. It was only Black Hayate though. The young pup barked at Roy. Roy was a bit confused until he heard a knock at the door. Since Roy still heard the water running in the bathroom Roy slid out of bed to answer the front door.
On the way out of the room, Roy drug his T-shirt over his head. Roy walked briskly to the front door. Unknown to Roy, a surprise awaited him beyond the door.
Rizahawkeye21A/N: Another cliffhanger I know. Its around 2 in the morning although its spring back or whatever so its technically 1AM but it feels like 2. Anywho I wanted to thank my reviewers for the constant flood of reassurance. This time I'm more confident that I was right on all of the points in this chapter. If not tell me please. Again I'm sorry for the cliffhanger but I wanted to get you to think who it might be. I hope to update again next weekend!
