Hello! I have returned.. but only for a short while.. It is possible that I have "caught" the computer geek's worst nightmare… Carpal Tunnel! Oh, yes it's lovely, and it loves me. So yea.. I definitely will only be updating about once a week.. maybe once every two weeks.. keep in mind.. this is against the wishes of my doctor. Lol. But I'm not giving up. :) Wish me luck and I hope to see you all regularly!
BTW, thank you all for your nice comments on my last chapter and on my newest one-shot, "Fallen Comrade, Finding Hope". It means a lot to me! Thanks again:)
Disclaimer: I do not own Full Metal Alchemist… nor do I want to. So yea.

As the rain poured harder Ed felt his eyelids droop. He then shook himself out of it andtightened his grip on his legs. Beside him, the warmth of the Colonel's body was oh too inviting. Ed growled.
"Scoot over."
Roy turned and stared at him.
"Hell no, I don't want to get wet…"
Ed growled and pulled the jacket closer. He tried ignoring the smell of the Colonel which came from inside it.
Luckily, the smell of the rain was now starting to overpower his nostrils and he sighed in almost a kind of thanks.
Roy shivered but turned his head in an attempt to hide it. After all, Roy was a man.
Ed laughed.
"If you're cold, you can have your jacket." Ed offered.
Roy shook his head.
"I'm not cold and even if I was, you need it more than I do."
Ed raised an eyebrow.
"Are you implying I'm weak?"
Roy laughed.
"No…"
He paused and laughed, pointing to his shirt.
Ed growled. "Well, I'd still have a shirt if it wasn't for you getting hurt."
Roy laughed. "And I wouldn't have gotten hurt if it wasn't for you…"
Ed growled. "Neither of us would be out here if it wasn't for you!"
Roy laughed, feeling a bit hurt.
"Yes, yes… so it's all my fault.."
Ed growled.
"Yes…"
Roy sighed.
"In a way… this entire thing is my fault…"
Ed looked over to Roy and raised an eyebrow.
"Hey, hey… come on... I was just joking…"
Roy shook his head.
"But it's true…"
Ed turned toward Roy and patted his shoulder.
"I know what you're thinking.. And it's bullshit.. So don't even waste your time on it."
Roy laughed.
"So you can read minds now, aye?"
Ed growled.
"You're such an idiot."
Roy laughed.
"And you're such a child…"
Ed stared at Roy with an angry fire flickering in his eyes.
For moment, even if it was just a moment... Roy was afraid. This fire… he was supposed to be the master of fire… but this fire… he could not master… ever.
A wild fire that assaulted him every time he stared into those eyes.
He was afraid... but... just for a moment.
Ed looked away and blushed. Roy had been staring at him so strangely.
"What're you thinking about now you Pedo-Perv?" Ed asked with a hint of nervousness in his voice.
Roy shook his head and blinked his eyes and few times.
He then took in a breath, turned away and responded in an almost dreamy voice, "Nothing."
Ed growled and turned.
"Bullshit nothing! God!"
He then got up, stripping the jacket off of him. He threw it in Roy's face and leaned against the other side of the tree.
He was only half protected from the water and he felt the drops hit his skin.
He shivered a bit and a chill went down his spine, but he would not move.
He put his head down and growled.
"You piss me off."
Roy laughed.
"I tend to do that, huh?"
Ed quietly growled and whispered, "You tend to do other things as well…"
Roy laughed.
"Yea, like what?"
Ed quickly sat down and pressed his knees to his chest.
His semi-wet hair fell into his eyes and cast a shadow across his face. He took in a deep breath, shivering as he did and whispered,
"You make my heart beat faster…"

Of course, Roy being the idiot he usually was, didn't hear Edward and assumed he had just completely ignored him.
Roy sighed.
"You know, you being over there defeats the whole purpose of this beautiful canopy…"
Ed remained silent. Roy scooted himself back a bit, getting caught in a few raindrops as he did. He then twisted himself around the tree to stare at the now soaked Edward.
Roy touched the boy's shoulder and his eyes went large.
Roy was terrified… Ed's skin was cold as ice.
He pulled himself over a bit farther and grabbed the shivering boy.
Ed's lips were a light blue and it seemed as though he didn't even realize what was going on. Roy pulled him into his lap and moved back to his original spot.
"This isn't going to work." Roy sighed.
He then tried to remember something he had learned years ago in training for wilderness survival.
The words echoed in his head.
"The quickest way to raise a body temperature, is by skin to skin contact."
He took a deep breath and a slight blush went across his face.
"Damn…"
He said and set the boy aside as he pulled his own shirt off.
"What the hell are you doing?" Edward groggily whispered.
"I…" Roy paused.
"I have to..."
He paused again and a small blush went across his face.
Ed then sat up and flexed his hand with a curious and semi-frightened look on his face.
"I can't feel that…"
"What?" Roy asked.
"I can't feel that…"
Roy laughed nervously and growled.
"It's your fault... come here."
Roy then began to undo Edward's pants buttons and he freaked out.
"What the hell are you doing you pervert?"
Roy blushed and growled.
"I have to... we... the quickest way to..."
He tried to use the quote, but the words wouldn't come out of his mouth.
"Dammit!"
He yelled.
Ed stared at him.
"What?"
Roy growled.
"I have to take your pants off because they're wet!"
Ed blushed and growled.
"You stay the hell away from my pants you freaking pervert!"
Roy growled.
"I'm not a pervert... and I don't want your childish body anyway! I'm trying to save your life!"
Ed growled.
"Childish body? SCREW YOU ASSHOLE! LET ME DIE!"
Roy then leaped forward, wincing as he did and pinned the boy to the wet muddy ground.
"That feels so gross." Ed whined and squirmed.
Roy couldn't help but laugh, but his face was turning a beat red color and he then remembered his anger.
He held Ed's hands above his head with one hand and began to fiddle with the buttons with his free hand.
"Get your dirty hands off me!"
Ed growled and continued to whine about the "icky" and "gross" feeling on his back.
He could have easily kicked the Colonel... in the knees, or where it really hurts.
But he figured he had caused Roy enough damage… and there was something strangely
exciting about Roy pinning him like that.
Roy growled as he fiddled with the buttons. Ed laughed.
"Can't get 'im, can ya?" Roy growled.
He then brought his hand up to Ed's face and brushed his gloved fingers against Ed's lips.
Silence.
Roy laughed.
"I just love my new trick…."
