MUDDY SAVIOUR

It was raining pretty hard that day. Edward was due to come in, thought Roy boredly. Unless, of course, he got caught in the mud or something. Roy paused, then got up to look. You never knew. So he looked out the window, just to check.

Sure enough, Edward Elric was stuck in the mud. Stuck! Roy immediately began to snigger and sat back down. This was so bad.

Lieutenant Hawkeye wandered in, toting a stack of paperwork for after the meeting. She noticed the flash of red outside the window. "Go get him," she sighed.

Roy, who was always wary of Riza Hawkeye, obliged, pulled on his coat, and stepped out into the rain, where Ed was still standing in the goop. "Having a problem, Fullmetal?" he smirked, to Ed's disgust.

"Shut up, bastard," muttered the furiously blushing alchemist.

Roy sighed, then walked off, to Ed's horror. Luckily, he came back a few moments later, toting a stack of wide boards. Ed eyed them, wondering what Roy was going to do.

Lay them on the mud? What the hell?

Ed watched Roy scoot across the boards, really wondering what the hell was going on. SUddenly the darkhaired man's arms wrapped around him and Edward was wrenched out of the mud. Ed clung to him instinctively, which made Roy smirk even more. "So tell me, Fullmetal, what exactly were you doing in the mud in the first place?" Ed immediately colored. Roy sniggered, then shifted the elder Elric brother so he was carrying him bridal style. "It doesn't matter," he told the blonde, who smiled.

"Nope," Edward replied, sliding his arms around Roy's neck. "You saved me."

n.n It's cute. Plus it would be hilarious for Ed to get stuck in the mud... We sorta wonder how come he didn't just transmute a pathway out of the mud, but.. that would destroy the whole point of the fic! -nod- So he conveniently forgot about alchemy.
