What developed from the accident in the night

Chapter Ten

When Edward woke up he felt warm and rather comfortable. He didn't even open his eyes deciding to sleep some more. Instead he tried to move his numb arm but something prevented him from moving it. Confused Edward blinked and opened his eyes. All he could see was someone's chest and an arm placed over his shoulder, fingers tangled in his hair. Edward also saw green hair pouring over the man's shoulder onto his chest. Edward nearly panicked since he didn't remember where he was and who this man before him was.

Then the green hair reminded him and slowly Edward looked up to see Envy silently snoring above him. Edward blushed when he remembered what had happened the day before. 'We…We actually…' he couldn't even say the whole sentence in his mind. Edward looked down to Envy's chest again trying to calm himself. He couldn't calm down at least not in Envy's embrace. Edward carefully moved Envy's hand away from above himself. Slowly he got up from the bed and managed not to wake Envy, wincing at the pain throbbing in his rear.

Edward headed to the bathroom to take a shower and wash away the dried sweat and semen. He turned on the faucet and waited the water to warm up. Edward turned the water to run through the shower head. He stepped under the water stream and sighed as the water hit his shoulders. Edward relaxed under the water and started to wash himself. Only his thoughts didn't leave him in peace. Now that he was standing in silence his thoughts started to wander.

'Now that we've done it…What if he wants to leave me…' Edward worried. 'But why would he have stayed with me this long if he only wanted sex?' he tried to reason himself. Edward nearly panicked at the thought of losing Envy. He slowly washed himself with a soap which smelled like fresh strawberries. The blond hissed silently when he touched his back.

Edward jumped when a cool hand was placed on his hip and nearly slipped when he lost his balance. Luckily he was saved by Envy who had caused him to slip in the first place. Envy didn't let go of Edward's hips where he had taken a hold of to keep the blond from falling. He leaned to kiss Edward on the cheek and then smiled at him contently.

"Morning sunshine. Did you sleep well?" Envy whispered near Edward's ear. The blond shivered at the contact and winced when Envy accidentally touched his back with too much pressure.

"Edo?" Envy asked worriedly turning the blond around to face him properly. "I hurt you last night, didn't I?" he asked with sad smile. He hadn't meant to hurt Edward.

"I'm okay. Just a little sore." Edward tried to assure him but failed when he winced as Envy tried to hug him closer.

"Sorry…" Envy mumbled and gently started to massage Edward's back to ease the pain. He kissed Edward's neck and moved his hands to stroke Edward's hips. "Any better?"

"Yeah…" Edward sighed and leaned against Envy.

Edward started dozing off because of the warm water and Envy's massaging hands were relaxing him a little too much. Edward sighed again resting his weight against Envy who didn't seem to mind. Instead the green-haired man lay butterfly-kisses all the way up Edward's neck and started to nibble his earlobe. Envy placed his fingers under Edward's jaw lifting his head to be able to kiss the blond.

"Thanks Envy. I feel a lot better…" Edward managed to mumble coherently and Envy muttered 'you're welcome' against Edward's neck moving his hands to massages Edward's abs. "That…That feels…Oh god…" Edward sighed. "Al!" the blond suddenly yelled and almost lost his balance when Envy let go of his hips in surprise.

"What!?" hollered Envy bewildered catching Edward before he fell.

"S-sorry…I didn't mean…I…" Edward said blushing and Envy could hear the panic in his voice. "What'll he think?" Edward started muttering to himself.

"Eh…Wha…" Envy gathered his thoughts and grabbed the blond from his shoulders gently shaking him a little. "Calm down. Would you care to explain why you're so upset?" Envy asked managing to make the blond look into his eyes.

"I…I told Al that I'd go to see you…" Edward said gulping. "But I didn't expect to stay the night."

"Oh…" Envy shrugged.

"He's probably worried." Edward pleaded. "Hopefully he hasn't called the cops yet…" he muttered when Envy's stomach growled.

"Then let's get going to your house. He can always serve breakfast, right Edo?" Envy said cheerfully stepping out of the shower.

"Eh?" the blond muttered but Envy was already out of the bathroom. 'What was that all about…' he wondered.

"Hurry up! Let's not keep your little brother worried longer than necessary." Envy hollered from the bedroom.

"Be there in a minute." Edward said turning off the water and taking a towel to dry himself with. While he was drying his hair Envy stumbled back into the room to brush his teeth already fully clothed.

"I take that you're used to leave in a hurry…" Edward mumbled as Envy quickly combed his green hair.

"Yeah…" Envy replied looking at the blond approvingly. Edward was still drying his hair with the towel both hands raised to do so. His blond hair was a mess and a little curly after the shower, it made the blond look even cuter in Envy's eyes. Drops of water were running down his slight body. Envy followed one drop as it ran down Edward's neck, over his collarbone and chest passing his left nipple. Envy followed it all the way down and over Edward's abdomen until the blond coughed embarrassed. Envy snapped his eyes back to look into Edward's eyes. "I need to invite you to sleepover often just to catch this show…" Envy muttered.

Edward flushed, as if he wasn't embarrassed enough of Envy's gaze lingering on his body. He covered himself with the towel and headed to the bedroom to find his clothes. Edward walked around the room trying to locate all of his clothes throwing the already found garments on the bed. He couldn't find his boxers and despite his manners he cursed. "Where the hell are they?" he muttered frustrated.

"Edo." Envy mumbled near his ear and gave a peck on his cheek offering him the green boxers. "Here." Edward took them eyeing Envy who hadn't made a move to leave the room.

"Are going to watch as I get dressed?" Edward asked warily.

"Of course." Envy stated as if it was supposed to be clear to everyone. "There's nothing I haven't seen before, so why not watch. Can't I admire my beautiful boyfriend?" he asked teasingly.

"Men shouldn't be called beautiful…" Edward muttered under his breath discarding the towel and swiftly put on his boxers. Envy chuckled at his behaviour and just to be polite handed him the rest of his clothes one by one.

"Thanks…" Edward said and disappeared into the bathroom again. "I'll borrow your hairbrush!" he hollered.

After 20 minutes they parked in front of Edward's house. Of course Alphonse ran through the door immediately almost ripping the door off. He rushed to Edward and hugged him tight.

"Where have you been? You know I'll get worried if I don't know where you are." he muttered.

"Al…" Edward sighed. "Can…Y-you let go…I can't breath." he said short of breath. Al pulled away and glared at Envy who couldn't stop chuckling.

"I'm alright Al. As you can see." Edward also chuckled.

"Where have you been?" Alphonse asked again looking stern.

"I…I didn't mean to stay the night at Envy's…I…Got too tired and fell asleep…" Edward muttered blushing as he thought why he was too tired. Envy almost laughed at his discomfort but didn't when the blond glared at him.

"You should have called." Alphonse stated and turned towards the house. "But since you're safe I forgive you this time." Edward sighed from relief. "But next time call me."

"I will…" Edward mumbled. It wasn't a good idea to make Alphonse angry. He had realized that a long time ago. When Alphonse was angry he'd show it by making the food Edward hated and hiding things from him just to annoy him. And other things like that.

"Let's go inside." Edward said dragging Envy to the door after the brunette disappeared inside the house.

"That went well, didn't it?" Envy chuckled and hissed when Edward squeezed his hand roughly. "Sorry…"

"It could have gone worse…" Edward mumbled as they stepped into the kitchen.

"I guess you two want breakfast, though it's more of an early lunch." Alphonse stated as Envy's stomach grumbled.

"Yeah…" Envy muttered sitting down. "Can I help, for once?" he asked as. It was the routine they had, when ever Envy came to eat he'd ask if he could help and the answer was always the same.

"No need, but thank you." Alphonse said while chopping the ingredients. Envy nodded and took the morning paper only flipping it through. Edward sat next to him smiling. He leaned closer.

"Thank you." Edward whispered near Envy's ear. "For last night. I-I feel…I feel a lot better than before…" he continued blush evident on his face.

"If it made you feel so good we should do it more often." Envy half joked. Which meant he was being serious too. Edward was going to say something as the phone rang in the corridor.

"I'll answer." he stated jumping of the chair. Envy chuckled as Edward ran to the corridor and then turned to look at Alphonse who was staring straight at him. Envy raised an eyebrow questioningly.

"I assume you two moved to the next stage in your relationship." Alphonse simply stated.

"You…Might say that." Envy answered warily. They could hear Edward answer the phone.

"Good. Nii-san needs a healthy relationship." Al stated looking at Envy smiling. "And he looks more relaxed now."

"Yeah…" Envy muttered. 'But something is bothering him…' he thought.

"You know, you seem a bit too aware of what's happening between me and Edo." Envy pointed out. "A bit too aware for my liking…"

"I'm good at seeing these things…Don't know why though." Alphonse said giving Envy a cup of coffee. "But it's helps when I don't want nii-san to get hurt…This way I can warn him in good time." Alphonse said. Envy got the feeling that he had done this before.

"You don't need to worry…" Envy muttered quietly.

"What do you by that?" Al asked. "You make sound like I worry too much."

"It's not that…" Envy said. "There's no need to worry because I…I love your brother…" he whispered since he wasn't used to saying it out loud.

"Really?" Alphonse chirped up. "Have you told nii-san?"

"Yes…I told him. But he had already fallen asleep…So he probably didn't hear me." Envy mumbled little disappointedly. "I'll tell him again soon."

"Who is it, nii-san?" Alphonse asked. They hadn't heard anything after Edward answered the phone. "Nii-san?" he asked again since he didn't get any answer. He looked into the corridor when he still didn't get an answer. Then he rushed out of the kitchen. Envy stood up and walked to the corridor too. He was wondering what was going on. Apparently Alphonse had taken the phone away from the blond who was now looking blankly at the wall. Alphonse hung up without saying anything.

"Edo. Are you alright?" Envy asked looking worriedly at the blond. Edward turned to look at him but didn't say anything.

"Nii-san?" Alphonse tried to get his attention.

"What happened?" Envy asked from the brunette since Edward didn't seem to respond at all.

"Um…I…I don't know if nii-san wants me to tell you…" Alphonse said looking at his brother who didn't move or say anything.

"I think Edo is capable of stopping you if he doesn't want me to know." Envy stated. He was worried about the blond who was still staring at the wall.

"Fine. But first, let's see if we can get him to sit down." Alphonse took Edward's hand and led him to the living room.

"Nii-san has never acted like this before…" Alphonse sighed forcing Edward to sit down on the couch.

"Is he like this because of the phone call?" Envy asked silently as he sat down next to Edward. Envy decided he didn't like this new expression on Edward. It scared him. Being scared was a little bit unfamiliar feeling for Envy. But when it came to Edward, he was often worried about the blond.

"I-I assume nii-san hasn't told you how he lost his arm and leg, has he?" Alphonse asked quietly.

"No…" Envy answered slowly while taking a hold of Edward's hand. He needed to feel that the blond was actually there.

"You see… The one who called…He's the one responsible for it…" Alphonse said nervously. Envy had to control his anger, so he wouldn't cut the circulation in Edward's hand. 'No-one…No-one is allowed to hurt my chibi-san.' he growled in his mind.

Edward could hear talking around him but he couldn't move a muscle. They were probably talking about him but he couldn't understand what they were saying. All that he could comprehend was the one thought that repeated in his head. 'He's coming. He's coming here.' went on and on in his mind. He had felt as he was dragged along and forced to sit down but he couldn't react. Hearing his voice had been too much of a shock after such a long time.

It had been over a year since he last took contact to them. When Edward picked up the phone and heard the low voice say 'Good morning, son.' he froze. First emotion he had felt was anger. 'How dare he call here? He knows he's not welcome.' Edward had thought until he said something almost stopping Edward completely. The blond had almost stopped breathing, too. 'He's coming here!' he had screamed inside his head. Edward had almost dropped the phone. And now he was only sitting on the couch as the others were talking.

"What do you mean? Who called?" Envy asked starting to get angry again.

"The man on the phone was our father…" Alphonse said solemnly. Edward snapped out of his daze at the mentioning of his father.

"How dare the bastard call here?" he hissed. Even Envy shivered as he heard Edward's cold voice.

"Calm down nii-san." Alphonse tried soothing him.

"But he's coming here!" Edward yelled frustrated.

"I know nii-san. We'll figure out something." the brunette said trying to think how to prevent it.

"Would you please tell me what this is about?" Envy hollered making the brothers to look at him. Then Alphonse looked at Edward who simply nodded.

"Alright. Did you know we lived with Izumi Curtis for few years?" Alphonse started and when Envy nodded, he continued. "And as you might have noticed our father is still alive…"

"His not much of a father…" Edward muttered.

"Hohenheim, that's his name." Alphonse explained. "Hohenheim thinks himself as some sort of a scientist…"

"He has most likely lost his sanity somewhere along the way…" Edward mumbled gripping his artificial arm. "He used to use us in his experiments…"

"And mum. Until she died during one…" Alphonse said sadly looking down at his feet.

"And this one time after mum's death…He managed to blow up our house by mistake…" Edward muttered.

"I was buried under the collapsed building. I wasn't injured but if they wouldn't have found me I would have suffocated…" Alphonse said quietly. "But nii-san had it worse…"

"M-my leg was trapped under a collapsed stone wall…When they managed to move the wall…" Edward quietened.

"When they managed to move the wall, the bones of nii-san's leg were shattered beyond healing." Alphonse said sadly and continued as Edward found himself unable to talk about it. "They had to amputate the leg. And after the operation when the doctors were checking for other injuries, t-they…" Alphonse stuttered. "They realized that something was eating nii-san's arm away from the inside…"

"Hohenheim had just few days earlier injected something into my arm…He did that a lot but none of his earlier injections had done anything like that…"

"So they had to amputate nii-san's arm too. They didn't know what caused it, so they couldn't risk it. There was no other way but to take the arm…" Alphonse said. Edward was now shivering. He didn't want to remember any of it. Edward stood up and walked to the bathroom to wash his face. He didn't want to start crying over the memories.

Envy was furious to the man for hurting Edward. He stood up and walked after the blond. He didn't know what else to do. All the things Envy thought of would only cause trouble for him and Edward. He wouldn't be able to help Edward if he was in jail, now would he? So Envy followed Edward to the bathroom.

Edward washed his face quickly and while he was drying his face he felt someone embrace him.

"Envy?" he asked as he recognized the familiar feeling. Envy muttered something quietly. Edward didn't hear what he said but all he could care about was the warm embrace.

"You okay?" Envy asked letting go of Edward, so he could turn around. When Edward was facing him Envy hugged him again. Envy held him close and gave him a peck on the forehead.

"Yeah…" Edward muttered hugging him back. "I just don't want to see him…" he said. Envy massaged Edward's back with one hand soothing him and with the other he lifted Edward's face. He kissed the blond softly.

"I have an idea." Envy stated as he pulled away from the kiss.

"What?" Edward asked unsure about what he meant, as Envy walked him out of the bathroom.

"Do you want to see your father?" Envy asked from Alphonse as they walked into the living room. Alphonse was startled but shook his head.

"After everything he's done to us…To nii-san, I don't want to see him." he said quietly.

"And you already told me that you don't want to see him." Envy stated to Edward as the blond sat down next to his brother.

"Then I have an idea how to prevent it." Envy stated. The brothers look at him questioningly.

"And what is your idea?" Alphonse asked. He still wasn't sure if he could trust Envy.

"You said your father is coming here, right?" Envy asked. Edward nodded with a scowl on his face. "When?" Envy asked.

"He'll be here in an hour…" Edward muttered.

"When he comes…I can easily pretend I live here." Envy stated. Edward's looked at him and a small smile slowly appeared on his face.

"But will he believe that you live here?" Alphonse asked making Edward's face darken again.

"As an actor I can be quite convincing. Don't you think so?" Envy asked. "Besides I can call for help."

The brothers looked questioningly at him. Envy took out his cell phone and dialled a number. He waited for someone to answer. Edward wondered who he was calling to.

"Where are you?" Envy asked immediately as his call was answered. "I know it sounded weird." Envy stated glaring at the wall. He was quiet for a while as he listened. "At school? What are you doing at school?" He listened again.

"Why aren't you at school?" Edward asked from Alphonse. It was a school day after all.

"I was too worried about you to go to school…" Alphonse said looking at his feet. He felt bad for not going.

"Studying? Yes, I'm aware that's what you're supposed to do at school." Envy stated to the phone irately.

"Since you have bothered to go to school I hate to ask your help…" Envy muttered but it didn't sound like he was sorry. "Yes, I need your help." Envy said again gritting his teeth. Then Envy told the address of the house. "You just need to pretend you live here." he stated to the one on the other end of the call.

"Who are calling to?" Edward asked but Envy didn't answer him.

"It's a good thing you're wearing your uniform…Makes it more believable that you're coming home…" Envy said as he started pacing around the room.

"When you get to the house, don't come to the door until you see me at the door talking to a man…" Envy said and then turned to Edward. "What does your father look like?" he asked. Apparently he had been asked about it.

"An older blond man with glasses." Envy told the rather poor description. "See ya then." he said hanging up.

"Who did you call?" Edward asked again. Envy looked at him for a while before answering.

"My brother." Envy stated. And then they waited.

END OF CHAPTER TEN

Disclaimer I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist

I'm really, really sorry for the delay. But here is the next chapter.

To the question what happened to the other four chapters…The answer is nothing. After I wrote the shower scene in this chapter some serious writer's block hit me and I couldn't write anything. Nothing came out. Partly the reason to it was that I hadn't quite figured out what Hohenheim had done to them…Hopefully what I wrote isn't too weird…Since it's the best idea I could come up with…

Well enough talk…Please review!

And thank you for your patience.
