Theme: Roy Edward #3: "After One Year"
"What's the matter, Alphonse?" Roy looked concerned: despite the luxuriant restaurant he had taken Al to for their one-year anniversary... the boy was so melancholy.
"I'm... sorry. I was just thinking about Brother." He offered a sheepish smile. "I don't know if he's enjoying himself or not... or if he's still alive."
Roy easily pulled the boy into an embrace, knowing how much Edward meant to his lover. "You're constantly getting nearer to him, Alphonse. So long as you don't give up, then you'll find him. And..." he smiled, "...I'll keep helping you. For as long as it takes."
