19. Glass

Roy felt a little bad about coming home so late, but it couldn't have been helped. He sometimes wondered if all the soldiers stationed at Eastern HQ had taken an incompetence test.

He hadn't been able to call, however, to tell his lover that he was going to be late, and he found Edward asleep at the dining room table with dinner all laid out. It was too late to reheat it and he didn't want to wake the blonde up anyway, so he merely uncurled Ed's hand from around an almost empty glass and lifted him into his arms. He'd make it up to the boy tomorrow.
