Chapter 10: Two Hearts One Mind Part 2
(A/N contains some m rated material, only in the Roy/Havoc conversation. But after that it's all good)
As Riza was just about to jump in the shower Roy was getting out. Roy had already got the outfit he was going to wear. He chose black pants and jacket with a crimson red shirt and black tie, although he didn't want to wear the tie and defiantly didn't want to go to this party with the terms that the Fuhrer put down. He stilled tired to look presentable and towel dried his hair to his satisfaction and put on the pants and jacket. As he opened the door his first sight was Havoc and Armstrong looking around the room.
"What are you two doing? Shouldn't you be getting ready?"
"Yeah, yeah sir, just need to throw on the jacket and were good to go" Havoc replied.
Havoc was wearing back pants with a black vest, jacket and bow tie he was also wearing a white shirt underneath the vest. Armstrong was wearing a navy suit with a blue shirt underneath and a dark blue tie.
Roy walked over to his table and grabbed his comb and started to brush through his black hair.
"Gee what did the Fuhrer tell you now to make you more pissy then usual? Did he tell you not to yell at a fifty-something old man because he might have a fucking Stroke" joked Havoc
"Havoc!" Roy said in an anger voice and only looking over from the side.
"Watch your language Jean" Armstrong filled in the sentence for Roy.
"Sorry Sir's" Havoc said lowering his head.
"He is a 46 year old man, he cant get a stroke as fast as you can with all that smoking you do"
"Uh? What? Sorry I didn't hear that one. I was too busy talking to Armstrong to listen to you" Havoc pretended not to hear as he light up a cigarette and opened a window playfully.
Roy walked over to the table where he was the night before and poured himself a drink. As Armstrong noticed this he grabbed the cigarette from Havoc and the glass from Roy then walked away with a sigh as he put out the cigarette and poured liquid down he drain. Roy and Havoc looked at each other with board eyes. Like children when you take something away that they have many copies of. They both did the same thing over again. Havoc light up again and Roy poured another glass. When Armstrong turned around and saw what they were doing he signed heavily and took the bottle away form Roy before he could pour a drop and grabbed havocs lighter.
"Boys we not only have to look presentable but we have to smell and act like it to. Save it for later" Armstrong suggested.
Roy rolled his eyes then sat down in his chair and put his feet up on the table pushing his chair to tilt on two legs.
"Sir!"
Roy looked over at Armstrong and lazily said "uh?"
"Feet!"
Roy rolled his eyes and dropped his feet like a child would. Slamming on the floor
Havoc sighed and turned around to face Roy "so what did the Fuhrer want?" with this Armstrong walked over to the table with the lighter and bottle still in his hands.
Roy tilted his head back and put his hands over his eyes. "I can't believe I'm going to tell you this. Long story short, Fuhrer thinks I'm getting too friendly with Riza and threatened that he'll take her out of this mission and out of our team if we keep it up. So we can only be around each other only if it's an order I'm giving her, or an order giving to us"
"HA! So you are seeing Riza! I knew it but no one ever believed me! So sir, how is she? You know what I mean" Havoc jumped up and laughed.
Roy looked up with his irritated expression and started to pull out one of his gloves. Armstrong pulled Havoc back down on his seat before Roy could do any damage.
"Were not seeing each other Havoc." Roy said lowering his hands and starting hard at Havoc with a little colour in his cheeks.
Ohhh I get it, it's an FTF relationship, and its only like that because you have too much pride to commit to one women so your playing a whole different ball game all together!" Havoc joked again.
"Havoc…it's not like that at all…" Roy said placing his hands on the edges of the tables to constrain him self form strangling the man. Armstrong couldn't help but laugh.
"Your in no rush for a marriage! Damn if only Hughes was alive, he'd get a kick out of this! Ahh, god rests his soul!" Havoc joked again.
"THAT'S IT!" Roy shouted while jumping over the table and garbing the bottle form Armstrong, Roy tried to hit Havoc over the head with it. But before he could, Armstrong threw his arm out to stop Roy form hitting Havoc.
"Jesus Christ, I'm sorry Sir! calm down! Oh god pleases calm down!" Havoc said while flipping over his chair and getting scared.
"CALM DOWN! I'LL SHOW U CALM DOWN!" Roy shouted and just as he was about to throw the bottle, Fuery, Falman and Breda came into the room. Havoc ducked covering his head and the bottle went flying and smashed into the wall 1 inch above Fuery's head. Everyone stood silent. Armstrong was still holding Roy back (like how al does with ed) Havoc was on the ground covering his head and looking at Falman and Breda who were both jumped one meter away form Fuery. Fuery's eyes went small.
"Are you ok Fuery?" Roy asked to break the silence
"Wow, imagine that if Fuery was only an inch higher…" Havoc pointed
Just as Havoc finished Fuery fainted.
After Falman and Breda picked up Fuery and placed him on the bed they herd a knocking on the door and wind's head popped in.
"Is everything ok, I herd a crash"
"Crash what crash?" Havoc said bouncing up and dusting himself off.
"The crash just now! What happened to Mr. Fuery?" Wind said looking at Fuery.
"Oh don't worry about it, the colonel here has a medical problem and he got angry and started to throw bottles around the room and almost hit Fuery." Havoc explained
"Medical Problem!" Roy said
"Oh yeah he has A.D.D, but it's a light form of It." havoc laughed and opened the door revealing wind.
Everyone stopped all of the sudden and their jaws practically dropped
Wind was wearing a silver Japanese type of dress with no sleeves but a tight collar, which was beaded and glittered lightly. Her hair was up in a tight bun with some gold and silver flowers in it and a few bangs hanging around her eyes.
"Well if you boys are ok, I have to get going now to great guests. I'll see all of you soon then" wind said directing it towards Roy more then anyone ells. With a small bow Wind left closing the door.
"Oh cruel god, why do you make all the beautiful women taken or evil in some way!" Havoc said looking up.
Fuery started to wake up and look round the room. "What happened?"
"You just missed a beautiful angel!" Breda filled in the answer.
Roy sighed and walked over to the wall where the glass shattered and started to pick up the glass.
Falman looked at his watch and realized it was 8:27. "Sir should we get a hold of first lieutenant and see when she will be ready?"
"Sure go a head" Roy said occupying him self with picking up glass.
Falman waited a minuet and finally said "Sir? Aren't you going to call her?"
"The Colonel and the First Lieutenant aren't speaking unless it's him giving her orders," Havoc said crossing his arms
Roy picked up a small piece of glass and flicked it at Havoc "Shut up Havoc. Someone just call her!" Roy said turning around and looking at everyone.
Havoc started to rub his head and walked up to Falman "lets see your Comstat, I forgot mine" Falman gave Havoc his Comstat.
"First Lieutenant? You there" Havoc waited a minuet.
"What is if Havoc" Riza replied in an anger voice.
"Well good glad to hear your having fun up there. You almost done?"
"Close to it, when are we meeting and where?"
"8:35 in the main hall."
"Alright:"
Havoc smiled and turned off the Comstat. "See Sir, not so hard. Even a second lieutenant can do it!"
"Havoc remember what just happened a few moments ago" Armstrong reminded. Just as Roy stared at Havoc sharply form the side.
"I'll see you guys downstairs." Havoc said leaving the room. Everyone followed but Falman who was waiting on Roy.
"Go ahead I'll be there in a minute Vato" Roy said with out looking up.
Falman just nodded his head and left the room.
After Roy cleaned up the mess he took a different bottle and poured himself a glass and took it all in one shot. (How the hell am I going to do this tonight? I bet she will look beautiful) Roy thought to himself
Just as Roy finished up, Riza was starting to leave her room and she stopped and thought to her self (tonight is going to be hard. How am I going to do this?) As Riza continued on her way Roy left his tie behind and put on his jacket. He brushed his hair back as he usually does for a formal party and took his leave.
Roy started to leave his room and made it to the stairs when he felt a presents behind him. As he turned quickly there she was. Riza was standing there just as shocked as Roy was when they saw each other. Riza started to head down the stairs with redness in her cheeks. That was the very spot where he bumped into her.
Roy still couldn't take his eyes off of her she was wearing the white dress that the maids had. Even in the little light there was on the stairs she still glowed like a flower in the moonlight. She was wearing opened toe heals that tied up around her ankles and the crystal necklace. Her hair was also in a bun but a messy bun with some braids hanging out with pearl ends to keep the braids in place. Riza stood there hanging onto the railing not sure rather to pass Roy or wait till he went. She knew she couldn't get any closer then she was now. As they both stared at each other knowing what the Fuhrer said Riza broke the eye contact and looked down to her left side as a sign for saying that she was sorry. Roy understood this sign and carried on his way. Riza looked up again and took two steps when Roy stopped in his tracks
"I don't care what the military says, you look beautiful tonight Riza"
"Thank you Sir, keep in mind your dream of being Fuhrer."
"That's right, which means I can stop what the Fuhrer now has done, it will take some time." Roy said turning around and looking back at Riza.
"I'm looking forward to it, Sir"
"Roy"
"Excuse me?"
"You should learn when it's appropriate to call me Sir or Roy"
Riza smiled at this and nodded her head "Roy…"
Roy smiled back and continued on his way.
