Theme 11: Liar
Riza stormed into the apartment, tension instantly filling the room. She slammed the front door as she marched to her bedroom, although it was opened a moment later as she was followed by a apologetic Roy. He quickly went after her into the room and found her sitting on the bed, her arms crossed and a pout on her face. He grinned. How cute.
"Riza," he said, cranking the charm to full blast. She rolled her eyes. "What's wrong?"
She shot him a withering look. "You know. You know what you did."
Roy sat with her on the edge of the bed and hesitantly put his arm around her. She didn't move away, but she didn't relax. He frowned. "If it has something to do with Vanessa-"
"You know damn well it has everything to do with her."
Roy sighed. "I told you. She's gathering intel for me on one of the corrupt generals who wasn't thrown out with the rest of Bradley's garbage. The military still has a lot of cleaning up to do; it's still dangerous out there. I had to make it seem like I was just flirting with her. I swear."
Riza glared at him. "So you were just 'receiving' intel when you had your paws all over her ass then?" Roy paused.
"You know, I never pegged you to be the jealous type."
"You didn't answer my question." Roy groaned and flopped onto her bed. He already felt guilty enough when he saw the look on her face after Vanessa had whispered the coded information to him, he didn't need her to make him feel worse. After all, it didn't mean anything, he was just playing the part. But then again, he thought, I guess I did go a little overboard.
"Riza," He began carefully. "You know I would never want to hurt you. If I were given the option to choose a partner from all of the women on this godforsaken planet, I would choose you a million times over. I could care less about Vanessa and whatever "attractive" qualities she may have, because she can never hold a candle to you."
He sat up and ran a hand through her hair. To his delight, she leaned in, her cheek resting on his collarbone. "You know I love you."
Riza sighed. "You know I don't want to have these petty arguments. They aren't for people like us." She looked up at him and smirked. "You just frustrate the hell out of me sometimes."
Roy chuckled and held her tighter. "It's in my nature." They sat together in a moment of silence when Riza suddenly pulled away.
"So you don't think that Vanessa is attractive at all?"
Roy smirked and kissed her lips softly. "Never." He gulped when Riza's gaze traveled down his body, paused in a particular location, then snapped back to his.
"Liar."
I apologize for the shortness, but as I said, I had a lot of fun writing this. I hope you had fun reading! It won't all be fluffy happy stuff, just letting you know. The grit will come up soon ;) please review!
