Chapter: Heart of Ice
She stood and watched the two boys fight. They had wooden swords and were stabbing at each other.
"Can't I play?" Riza asked. Maes and Roy looked over at her. The two ten year old boys looked at each other then laughed.
"No! Girls can't play war!" Roy laughed as if her suggestion was funny. Maes chuckled too and she stomped her foot. The 6 year old felt tears in her eyes.
"Yeah well I'll show you! I'll join the military and rank even higher than both of you!" Riza's hot tears spilled from her eyes and she stomped off. Her mother opened the door inquisitively as her daughter walked in. Riza pressed her face into her mother's dress skirts and bawled. "MOMMY! I'M GOING TO BE THE B-B-BEST! I'M GUNNA S-S-SHOW THOSE BOYS!" She sniffed.
"Yes you are dear." Her mother smiled, her hand on her daughter's head.
"I'm gunna be an Alchemist like Daddy and show them all-" SMACK! Her mother slapped her and little Riza's eyes opened wide.
"No. You're not going to ever use alchemy. Do you understand me?" Her mother scolded. Riza was stunned.
But even as her mother spoke she realized that she would study the art… even if that had to be in the middle of the night and she had to wait until her mother died to become a State Alchemist. She fought so hard to become one… even though it was unorthodox for women to be alchemists. Finally a year after Roy left she passed the test. Her mother had died only months before. Therefore she was able to take the test without question.
'I'll show you…' Roy listened to her mumble in her sleep. He smiled remembering those days as well. Riza's eyes slowly opened to Roy's face and she blinked sleep from her eyes.
"R-Roy?" She gasped and sat up. "Roy… but they… and… the letter… dead… what… am I… where… what…-" Her eyes opened wide in shock as his gloved hand came up and pulled her lips to his. He watched her through onyx eyes until her lids closed. She kissed him back tenderly, allowing this one kiss to engulf her.
"Quiet. I'll explain later alright?" He smiled. That trademark boyish grin that always spread to his eyes, now his eye flashed across his face.
"Ro-Brigadier Mustang… they said you were dead." Riza gasped. He chuckled.
"Well they're not very intelligent are they? I'm most certainly not dead, you were right. Like any building collapsing could kill me! HA!" He laughed darkly. "But I'm glad I got the promotion." He smiled. Riza looked him over. He was just as boyishly handsome as he always had been. His face was slightly lined with wear but she was sure with sleep those would disappear. He looked like he desperately needed a bath and his hair had grown long and shaggy. A rough 5 o'clock shadow could be felt on his face. She thought he looked very… rough. The patch over his eye gave him a look of former regality.
"B-But sir…" She looked him in the eyes. Oh, those obsidian eyes that she wanted to lose herself in. She longed so deeply for it, to be able to just relax and stare into those eyes. He smiled softly at her. She made to stand up and he grinned.
"Don't call me sir. When we're out of uniform we're Roy and Riza." He smiled his boyish grin again. The rain splattered loudly on the window. All she could hear though was the sound of her own heart pounding in her ears. He wasn't dead. He was there and he was looking so deeply into her eyes that she could have sworn that he was looking straight into her soul. It was something special that they had it meant Roy was there and everything would be alright. She allowed herself to be wrapped up in his arms and her lips assaulted by his. They kissed desperately for some time, their tongues tangling together, knotting around each other. Finally they remembered that they were human and broke apart. Her face was flushed and her breathing was heavy.
Roy lifted her up, his hot wet pants moistened the spot where her ear met her neck, "You need a bath." She muttered. He chuckled darkly through his heavy breathing.
"Want to come with me?" He muttered huskily in her ear. It struck her how wrong this was. The policy strictly stated no fraternization between superior and subordinate officers. This was completely throwing aside that rule as they slipped out of his room down his hallway to a door which he pressed her up against. He pulled his gloves off with his teeth and his hands found the cool cream colored skin under her shirt. He slipped it off along with her shirt. Riza's deadly hands worked on his shirt until she could slip it onto the floor.
"D-Do you know how much trouble we could get into?" She muttered as his large hand found its way to the small of her back, completely covering the back of her hips. "M-Mustang!" She said a little more firmly as he opened the door to the bathroom.
"Yes?" He muttered, nuzzling his face into her neck, his lips pressed against her flesh and he nipped at the skin roughly. She couldn't help but groan out loud. She tangled her hands through his scruffy black hair as he pressed her up against the wall again, her bra falling to the floor. He put his hand on the tap and turned it on, their lips meeting again and his tongue rubbed across her lips and tangled together with hers in their moist caverns.
Her hands found the band of his pants and he grumbled something in her ear as she unzipped his pants and succeeded in pulling them down to the ground along with his boxers. She stepped back a moment and examined the man before her. He had a lion's finesse, he was well endowed in every aspect of his body. From his muscular arms, biceps bulging tautly under tight, now tanned skin. His abdomen was carved with muscle tissues a perfect six pack etched under flat pectorals. He watched her amazement with amusement and turned off the tap. She turned to the bath and looked in.
"Riza," His taunting voice, deepened and roughened by another war, muttered in her ear, his arms wrapping around her waist from behind, she chuckled as his hands unbuttoned her pants, "I love you and don't you forget it." She closed her eyes and leaned into him as he slid her clothes onto the floor.
"I love you to Roy Mustang, and if you ever forget that I will cheat on you with Havoc." She chuckled. He turned her around and she tilted her head back, her bare chest pressed up against his. He lifted her up and lowered them both into the hot bath, the water mingling sweetly with her smooth skin. His hands searched her body curiously, deftly pulling her hair clip out. She tangled her hand back into his hair, gently scratching at the scalp beneath as he pulled her by her knees into his lap.
Much later in the evening when both of them were worn out beyond all belief Mustang's arms were wrapped around her waist, holding her close. Her head was buried in his chest, her hands still grasped at his biceps loosely and he smiled sleepily. She breathed in his heavenly scent. Her lips traced a light path up his chest, making him sigh in response. He loved having her around she was so cold all the time but now… now she was nothing more than a melted heart that embraced him and only him. He held onto her tighter.
"I love you." She whispered. He smiled, hearing those words from her mouth.
"I love you too."
