Ch. 2: A conversation with Hughes

Sliding his hand through his wet hair he sighed. A small silent tear ran down his cheek, but was quickly wiped away without trace. He got ready in his usual attire and got out of his room into the hall ways were he ran into Hughes.

"Hello Ed, Didn't think you'd get out of that room of yours was beginning to miss ya!" Hughes said a little to cheerfully. Ed just replied with a nod. Then Hughes continued.

"heard ya got dumped!" Ed gave him a angry look, but Hughes chose to ignore it and continued with his sentence.

"I didn't even see that one coming! Winry dumping you for Al… yeah I'm tellin' ya that was unpredictable. You should move on tho Ed there's other fish in the sea! Come on your young! Live a little!" Hughes said encouraging him. But ED just nodded to what he was saying and sighing have the time.

" You know I see a lot of girls gawking at you." He said in a whisper. Ed looked up with red puffy eyes and finally said.

"None of them are half as good as Winry." He looked down at the floor again.

Hughes gave a sigh but still tried once more to make a conversation so he changed the subject.

"So where are you going Ed?" he asked casually. Ed put his hands in his pocket and said,

"to Roy's office to-"

"Oh! I didn't know you and Roy were like that! So that's why he gets so mad when I tell him to find himself a wife! Its' because he has you well, in that case I should-"

Ed said Madly blushing "Hughes! I was just going into his office because he needs help with some work-" once again cut off

"Call it whatever you want. It's not my business as to what you and Roy do in that office of his."

Ed clenched his fist and yelled out at Hughes who was smirking. " Were not doing anything!"

"Edward what is with all the noise? I thought I told you to come in my office 10 minutes ago. I d not tolerate Tardiness!" Roy said then continued, " And you Hughes what is the meaning of you telling Edward that we are involved some how other than professionally?" He asked him with a cocked eyebrow.

Hughes smirk at the great plan he just formed in his head. He smirked at Roy than said, " So you guys are involved with each other, other than professionally? I can see the mutual attraction from a mile away! Too bad you can make little baby Roy's and Edwards!" He squealed just like a school girl.

Both alchemist were about to kill him when Hughes looked down at the watch than said in a surprise voice. "OH! Look at the time! I have to go! Bye!" he said running down the hall way then yelled back, "BY THE WAY HAVE A FUN TIME WITH ROY ED!" Everyone in the hall way turned at the two blushing alchemist while Hughes got away.
