"I guess...this is goodbye one last time"


That's all you said to me before you left. Not even waking me up to share one last kiss, one last hug.

Edward Elric...

I hate you...

But...

Even now, as I race in the rain for the train station, knowing my chances were slim to none about ever seeing you again, I had to tell myself that no matter what, you'd be with me.

This is your choice, not mine, not anyone elses. Your choice to leave me forever, without saying goodbye. Your choice...

People blocked my way as I ran, and I swore violently, manuvering through them.

I had to reach that train.

I HAD to see your face one last time.

For my own sanity.

The train station grew closer and my heart jumped a bit when I heard the soud of the trains whistle blowing. Picking up speed I burst through the doors, past the guards and to the very End of the platform. I could see you sitting in the seat next to the window.

"ELRIC!"

You turned and looked at me with surprise, and then smiled, tears begining to stream down your face.

Standing there gasping, I got a hold of myself, and saluted sharply, soaked and shivering, but a grim smile on my face. Don't you ever forget me

You blinked for a moment then slowly returned the salute, eyes sparkling. Don't worry, I won't.

I lowered my hand and waved, tears running down my face in spite of my efforts to hold them back.

You waved back, and then the train pulled out of the station, we kept eye contact till no longer could we see eachother. but before that, you pointed to your pocket, then to me.

Trudging back home I placed my hand in my pockets, feeling a peice of paper in one of them. Pulling it out i saw it was a written letter.

Dear Roy,

It hurts me to do this, believe me, but I need to..I can't stay here anylonger, and you..well...you're the furher now.


Don't get all cocky because of this either, I'm trying not to smudge the ink. Who knew saying goodbye was so hard?

Anyway, I know you're probably right pissed at me, and would like to chew me out if you could.

But listen to me now, I'll be back someday, I'll find you again.

Trust me, I never give up, you know that first hand.

Love forever and for always.

Your's only,

Edward Elric.

I read the letter, before chuckling, whiping away my tears "and I Ed, am forever your's...goodbye"

Even then, the rain seemed to let up, and the sun shone through the dark clouds. Maybe there was still hope.
