Silver Wolf, Dark Moon
Ch.6.
..:Think of Me:..
Think of me...
---Roy was sitting at his desk the second day after his first change when the most grotesque thing arrived on his desk from one of the mail assistants. A letter, looking normal enough-in a normal-sized envelope with his name written in fancy cursive ontop of it, no stamp, so he guessed it had been hand-delivered to the mail assistant.
---He just looked at it for awhile, tracing the black ink which his name was spelt from as though he was trying to familiarize the writing. He then slid his fingers inside of the back of the parchment-still looking at the writing on the front as he pulled out the letter slowly. He could feel the eyes of Hawkeye and all of his other underlings on him and looked up-eyes icy- and they were all out of the room faster than he could blink-accept Hawkeye, who sat still, eyes now focused on the wall in front of her.
---He accepted her presence and turned his gaze to the letter, unfolding it with one hand as he casually leaned upon the other, then flickered his eyes to the top and began to read the small, fairly unique handwriting.
The Letter as it Read...
---'Dear Colonel Roy Mustang;
If you are reading this letter-you have een withheld from the truth plenty long enough.
I, Edward Elric, have left this facility and transfered to the Ishbalean camp on the island of the coast of Ishbal.
I knew you would want more of an esplanation, considering what we've been through together, that is why I wrote this letter.
Let me tell you this immediately, Roy Mustang, so you know and don't feel rejected in anyway. I love you, Roy Mustang, and I always will. And it's because I love you that I had myself transferred.
I want you to know that in order to protect you-
I had to leave you, so you don't end up with more than just a hurt heart and a bruised ego.
I know this might be a bit too much to ask, but considering the fact that we'll probably never see eachother again, please, Roy Mustang...Think of me.
Remember me if you ever have time...Spare a thought to remember the little blonde kid who was once in your district. And when you get older...if you can still remember any way, stop and think of me...
...Sorry to burden you with this stupid request, but-I know the feelings you felt for me may have been, and probably were, a fluke but...I love you, Roy and I know...There will never...ever be even a day when I won't have you on my mind...and be thinking of you.
---Sincerely, and with my love---
...Fullmetal'
The sound...of silence.
---Roy's eyes darked over the page over and over again, widening every time he read it. He then moved his gaze to Hawkeye's tense sitting position. She was shivering-and he realized it right away.
---"YOU KNEW ABOUT THIS!" he screamed furiously, "AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!" he flew to his feet-sending his chair flying back, "When did this come to your knowledge, lieutenant!" He hissed in fury.
---"...The day before yesterday..." she answered shakily, looking away from him,"Sir."
---"And you didn't inform me!" he had never felt so infuriated and yet...betrayed and hurt all at once. He could feel his face heating up and his eyes burnt as in a cracking voice he whispered in a pleading voice,"How could you do this,Ed?"
---His head lowered and his shoulders sagged, shaking with each of his rugged breaths, tears gliding over his cheeks, more cheeks than had ever before-even when Hughes died he had not felt his cheeks so damp.
---"Colonel..." Hawkeye stood and walked up to his desk, eyes shimmering in sympathy and...confusion.
---"I loved him." he snapped-almost yelling as his shoulders tensed as he clenched his fists, gritting his teeth,"I loved him so much..." he whispered, voice quivering as he resisted the urge to sob, "So much..."
---Hawkeye immediatly felt a rush of shock and slight longing, which faded quickly into empathy.
---"Roy..." she went around his desk and slowly, hesitantly put a hand on his shaking shoulder, then pulled him to her in a loose, very maternal-like hug. Roy simply hung his head over her shoulder for a while before wrapping his arms around her and burying his face into her shoulder, letting his cries go to be muffled by her blue uniform and his ears falling silently onto her back as he held onto her as though he would never stop crying.
---"Shh...it's okay..." Hawkeye whispered into his ear as she rubbed his back soothingly and felt the humidity of his cries on her skin through her shirt, "Just let it all out Roy...I'm here."
Everyone has to cry sometimes...
---After about ten minutes Roy slacked in her arms and pulled away slowly, eyes facing the floor. They were a bit bloodshot and sort of puffy, and had bags under them, but other than that he looked as good as one could with having their heart just stomped on.
---Her mood very quickly changed from sympathy todetermination, and she guessed her face showed it-considering how Roy jumped back a bit, "You know what this means don't you?" she asked sharply, crossing her arms in front of her chest.
---"Humn?...What do you mean, Riza?" he questioned, voice cracking hoarsely.
---"You! Do you know hat this means!" she insubuoardinately grabbed his collar and shook him, "Don't you! ANSWER ME, MUSTANG!"
---"RIZA!" he yelped,"HAWKEYE, STOP!" he stopped her hands and looked into her fiery gaze, but his eyes reflected emptiness and confusion, "I...have to move on with my life."
--A Slap Echoed Through The Room--
---"HOW DARE YOU EVEN SUGGEST SUCH A THING!" she screamed, eyes burning with rage, and a gleam of disgust, "I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I'M HEARING!"
---"What do you want me to do!" Roy cried out desperately, holding his swollen cheek, "HE OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WANT TO BE WITH ME, AND...And...I only want for his happiness!" Roy looked up, teary eyed, "I just want him to be happy."
---"Are you that blind, Roy?" she whispered, smiling as she looked into those surprised eyes, "Edward loves you so much...he has forso long."
---Roy looked up, eyes wide as his hand drooped from his cheek and somehow...someway...he knew she was right.
---"And what about your happiness, Roy?" she added with a warm smile, "I think that's worth fighting for."
---He stared at her in silence before he smiled back and brushed his hand over her cheek, "Thank you, Hawkeye." he stroked her cheek a bit and saw her eyes shimmering-she was on the brink of tears,"You've always been there for me...and when I need you the most, too." he sighed.
---"But right now Edward needs you!" she yelled, holding back her tears as she turned away from his hand, "Go to him, Roy!"
---Roy smiled as she rubbed her eyes and sniffed a bit, "You love him, Colonel!" she yelled, eyes glimmering, "Now, GO!...Prove it to him!" she sniffed again, shoulders shaking already, "Make him see that you care!"
---Roy blinked curiously, "But...how?" he paused, "I've already told him..."
---"ROY! Don't tell him!" she put his outheld hand over his heart, "Show him-make him truly believe you...here." she touched her own heart, "Right here."
---Hawkeye gasped as she felt his lips contact her cheek and froze until he completely vanished out the door with a quiet, "Thank you..." whispered softly in her ear.
---She then crumbled to the ground and let the tears fall freely, "Be good to him Roy..." she whispered as she watched her tears dampen the carpet. Then through her head back and yelled for all to hear,
"BE GOOD TO HIM!"
A/N: Was that overkill? I didn't think so...Hawkeye needs some emotion in her life...she wuvs Roy...and he don't wuv her...poor Hawkster...U-U she didn't deserve no one...so I shall eventually have to get her married...or...something...OO' anyways, I hope you hate me...because I might not be updating for a while...n.n sorry! But I've got to finish chapter eight-writing it-before I type up chapter seven...sorry, but it's sort of my...'Unwritten Rule'...n.n Well, Ja Ne!
