Disclaimer: I don't own FMA or anything in it. I just like to make up stories.

Love is an emotion, a part of the heart, the mind and the soul. True love is one of the few things that cross all parts of the union.

Chapter 2- The morning after

The sky above Edward was on fire, the first rays of the sun coming down to touch the Earth once more. At the moment he really didn't care. He could still feel her warmth on his automail arm, the automail she had made him. As he studied it he saw her careful workmanship, the love that she poured into it and the belief that someday he would need her again.

She was always on top of everything, Ed thought.

Back at the camp, the gypsies were stirring with the first light of the morning. The smolders of the campfires were carefully brought back to life to cook the food for breakfast. No one argued about having to extra mouths to feed, especially with Fredric proceeding over the camp.

Noah's story of her and the two brothers had seemed like a fairy tale. Yet the look and her eyes had told him that it wasn't some tale. Even more she was what she claimed to be, a seer. Years ago the seer of the clan was the next important figure next to the leader of the clan. Now days most people just thought they were fakes. He wasn't among those. Sure he was afraid, but only of the gift not the person like her former clan was.

Then there was the fact that very few gypsies told lies to one another, and one couldn't lie about Edward Elric's arm and leg. It was the proof that sealed any doubt; it wasn't anything someone had been able to do in this world yet. There was also something about Edward that made him want to help them for some reason. He might as well go wake up the brothers anyway, he thought. He had a feeling Ed wouldn't want to miss breakfast.

Edward's real arm and leg felt stiff as he got up from the tree. The bark of the tree had left a nasty imprint on his back. Figures I would fall asleep on the tree, serves my right though. Not sleeping in the tent. At least I won't do that again anytime soon, Ed thought. The smell of food from the camp made it to Ed's nose, making him pick up the pace to get back to the camp. Alphonse was awake and helping Fredric break down the tent that he had slept in over the night. He was the first to pick Ed out over the hill and point him out to Noah and Fredric. The red cloak was hanging on his back out of place with the clothing of this world, yet a part of him. The gypsies would head on toward England after they finished eating breakfast.

Edward though had made a decision back at the tree. His goal was to destroy the damnable bomb and then to find a way to get back to Amertris as soon as possible. He would tell Al and Noah after breakfast. We should at least get a chance to eat, Ed thought.

Winry herself woke up in her bed the tears still in her eyes from the dream. The universe it seemed was being cruel to her. It would allow her to see Ed for a few minutes at a time to tease her with her feelings. The clouds in the sky above seemed to be a representation of her mind toward the universe. The coming storm she thought in her mind. Yet she knew something she hadn't know when she had fallen asleep the night before. Ed loved her, and she had told him that she loved him back. What more was that he swore he would return to her and so far he hadn't broken a single promise he had swore.

She wore a nightgown similar to the one she had worn when she was growing up. The wrench still held in her closed fist, a reminder she would never forget. She took her time to get ready this morning, her thoughts lingering on the dream and of the kiss she and Edward had shared. She wouldn't admit it to anyone but Ed, but she had loved him for a long time now.

Grandma Pinako was sending her to Rush Valley for some new parts very soon. Winry promised to herself that when she went she would pick up extras, to make new automail for Ed. I don't know how he does it but he cant seem to keep his arms, she thought.

A/N- Hey here I am again posting another chapter/section. Sorry for any confusion on the 2-part chapter last time. Anyway I had a lot of trouble writing this chapter up, and I don't feel it's the best it could be. It has the jest of what I wanted but not everything. I'll properly rewrite it after I finish the story. And as a promise I'll try to update every week with at least a small chapter. Thanks for reading.
