Silver Wolf, Dark Moon

Ch.4.

..:Let it be:..

Let It Be

With a sudden jolt of energy, a darkness was lifted from Roy's body and his eyes flew open to a warm dawn approaching in the east-covered slightly by the forest. 'Forest?...What-Why was he in a forest? Why wasn't he in his room? Why-'

"Ahh..." he groaned as images flooded his mind...images of wolves...and fur...and blue eyes...and blood.

He turned to take in his surroundings and found a very-naked Edward with his head laying on Roy's hip...He could feel his breath on his...

He felt his face heat up and realized he was naked, as well and he found that somehow...somehow his body felt right this way...

"Gahh..." he hissed and felt his face get even hotter, "Uh...where are we?" he muttered to himself-trying to take his mind off of the blonde in his lap.

"Waa..." Roy looked down to see the brilliant-blue eyes appearing from behind loose, blonde bangs, then watched them fly open and looked on-blinking curiously as the blonde propelled himself backward-face a dark, flustered red and eyes fading sharply back to their human golden-yellow color.

"ROY! What-why are you..." memories flooded Edward's mind as they had Roy's, "Oh...Oh yeah..." he whispered.

"Hmm...so, you're surprised that I'm here, but you're not surprised that you woke up, naked, in the middle of the forest?" he watched Ed blink as though Roy had asked a stupid question.

"Why would I be? I've been like this for at least two and a half..." he trailed off when Roy shot him a deadly glare, "...weeks..."

Explanation...

"Go on, Fullmetal, tell me- when did you become...whatever we are now." Ed sensed the apprehension on the word 'we' and knew he couldn't escape without an explanation.

With a sigh, he began the story of how he and his brother had mistaken the wolf-person as a humanculi and this was what happened-this was the result- this was the curse.

"...And that's how I became...this..." he finished, dreading the silence that followed.

"So...you honestly didn't know that this..." Roy held up the hand with the pale scratch marks on it, "Would turn me into a...a..."

"Wolf? No...I really didn't, and I'm sorry..." Edward admitted apologetically, "But...I do know where we are!" Ed said, siting up a bit, he pointed with his flesh arm, "See? Over there is the lot where that fair was in so..." he moved his finger up a slope in the woods, "About there...that's where my arm and leg, and your clothes should be."

"Hmph. You've got a pretty good sense of navigation, Fullmetal, distance, too." Roy said, standing up with a smile, "Except for one thing-we ran North so..." he pointed in the opposite direction, "They'd be over there."

Ed blinked curiously, "Oh, yeah..they would, wouldn't they?" Roy noticed Ed figiting and cocked an eyebrow, "What's wrong with you, Fullmetal?" he asked, noticing a blush immediatly fly over the blonde's cheeks which only brought on more curiosity, "What? Tell me."

"Um...How am I gonna get...all the way...over there?" Roy thought the question was stupid and was about to yell 'Walk!' when he realized his error-and recalled Ed's missing leg and froze, actually thinking deeply about it for a moment, "I could carry you..."

When you're down, I will carry you...

"Wha-WHAT!" Ed yelped, blush spreading over his neck and ears, "N-No! I-You couldn't possibly! AH!" Roy cut him off sharply-ignoring the yowl of protest as he held the nude boy in his arms bridal-style and headed off towards the location previously pointed to.

"H-HEY!P-Put me down!" Ed protested, squirming irritably in Roy's arms.

"Shut up! What are you going to do! You can't very well walk and I'll be damned if I'm going to let you crawl! So just shut up and deal with it!" Roy snarled, his newly-found fangs coming together in an angry grit, "It's not like anyone's watching, Edward."

"I know..." came a meak reply from the boy, his voice quiet and timid, "B...but..."

"Silence-Just...Let it be!" Roy hissed, silencing the blonde with his sharp tongue.

"Let it be?" Ed repeated, as if mistified by the words. Roy was actually a bit surprised when he nodded and leaned on his chest, humming a soft, seemingly familiar tune.

"Yeah...let it be..." Roy chuckled as he turned around a bush and stumbled, falling into the bush with Edward in his lap and he could feel his...on Edward's...

"Get off, Fullmetal!" he gasped, standing up sharply-Edward crashed to the ground with a groan.

"Ooow..." Edward groaned, pushing himself up so he was sitting and looked to see what Roy had tripped over and found exactly what he had been looking for-his automail.

"Ha! Ha! Success!" Ed cheered, reaching for his automail, then freezing when he realized that Roy would witness the agony he went throught every time he put his limbs into his body, "Uh...Did you find your clothes?" he whispered tensely, holding the limbs loosely in his lap.

"Yeah..." he heard in reply as he also noticed the sound of clothing shuffling, "Are...are you gonna put your automail in or do you want me to carry you again?" Roy chuckled-but Ed felt no humor in the situation, but found dread.

"Uh...um..." Ed squirmed nervously, then sighed in defeat, " You, uh...You might want to cover your ears..."

"Cover my..." before Roy could finish he heard a hideous snap folowed by the grotesque sound of metal meeting flesh-and then Edward's scream filled the air- but was short-lived as he looked down and saw tears running down Ed's cheeks as he held his leg in place for awhile-holding his breath- then blinking in amazement as Ed panted, tears fading away.

"Fullmetal...I...I didn't know..." Roy didn't know what to say, " You...you went through this...for the past two and a half weeks!"

"Shutup...I've gone through this plenty of times!" Edward snapped, eyes flashing that icy blue, "I don't need your pity!" As he yelled this, he pushed on his arm and the same awful sounds followed-Roy winced as he heard Ed's cry.

They remained there in silence for a time, Edward panting as his slowly-fading blue eyes locked with Roy's onyx orbs, slowly the silence faded back into the sounds of the forest.

"Here." Roy said simply, tossing his jacket at the blonde, "Put it on and button up-if you catch cold, I'm the one who has to suffer!"

...Like a bridge o'er troubled waters.

Ed blinked blankly for a moment before standing up and sliding his arms into the sleeves and buttoning it shut. He looked fairly cute in the jacket-especially since he was practically drowning in it. It came down to his knees and the sleeves flopped over his hands.

"Thanks." Ed said as he held his hands together under his chin-smiling with a slight blush as he looked at Roy.

Roy felt a blush cross his cheeks as well and turned away, rubbing the back of his head, "Oh...Come on, lets just get back!" he scruffed the blonde head of hair and stuck his hands in his pockets-walking off very flustered.

Ed's face went blank for a second before he smiled again and latched onto Roy's arm after racing up behind him.

"Just let it be!" Edward said, sort of mocking Roy as the dark-haired man looked at him, eyes wide in curiousity as he walked along with Edward latched onto him likea lost puppy.

Then something amazing happened. A smile-an honest smile came over Roy's face and he chuckled, "Yeah...Let it be."

Edward stoped in his tracks as Roy kept walking. His eyes widened in realization-and somewhat...horror or shock-but a blush tainting his cheeks as his hair fell over his eyes loosely.

"Oh my God..." he spoke in his mind, voice traced with surprise, 'Oh... My...God...' He looked up to see Roy turning to yell for him to hurry up-which only made his eyes grow wider, 'I'm...Oh, God...'

'...I'm In Love with Roy.'
