This is my x-mas gift to all!

What happened last time:

Hughes nodded. not sure what he was going to say to Ed when he found him 'He's probably near the river...if he's anything like Al, then he's defiantly near the river.' Hughes ran out the door leaving Winry to Roy to take care of her...Hughes just hope he didn't kill her.

"Miss. Rockwell?" Roy said budging her a little.

Ch. 9 Our little talk part one

Winry looked up with tears and makeup smearing. Roy looked at her as if he actually cared then grabbed his handkerchief and handed it to her. She took it willingly.

"you okay?" He asked. She nodded blowing her nose and handing the handkerchief back to Roy, he looked at it in disgust.

"No...umm you can keep it." She nodded than continued to sob, Roy wasn't good at this at all the only thing he could you was to pat her back in encouragement.

"Now...lets stop with the tears...after all you brought this on your own." Winry briskly lifted her head.

"I brought this own my own? Its his fault...not mine...he should have just forgiven me and ---" She was cut off by Roy who had pulled her hair and brought her face up to his.

"Look, you little bitch. Ed had every right to yell at you and he could have done more! But he's a nice guy and won't go off and try to kill you, but I'm not a nice guy, Miss. Rockwell." Roy said angrily. Winry's breaths became short, and Roy let go of her hair.

"If I ever see you hurt him again! I swear Miss. Rockwell I wont hesitate to kill you. And clean yourself you low life hor." He spat out. Winry sat back down and looked at him in bewilderment. Her eyes widen at the realization.

"M-Mustang...y-you love Ed don't you?" Roy looked at her also surprised.

He chuckled. "Is it that obvious. But yes I do Miss. Rockwell and I don't like people hurting the ones I love." He paused and looked at the door once again. " So...I suggest Winry, you stay out of his way and leave the poor kid alone!" Roy snarled and left winry to sob her pathetic live away.

With Hughes and Ed

"Ed!" Hughes yelled out into the sky waiting for a reply back, but none came. "Ed!" He yelled once more but this time got a response back.

"Would you shut up Hughes!" Ed yelled. Hughes chuckled at this.

"Always the same." He said under his breath. "So quite a temper you had back there." Hughes said sitting next to Ed. Ed ignored him and looked across the water. The day had been hectic for Ed, first he finds out that Roy has a new girlfriend, then finds out he's in love with the dumbass, and then the icing on the cake he goes and yells at Winry...okay so that wasn't so bad. But he still had a very hectic day. Silence was only heard between Ed and Hughes until Ed broke it.

"What do you want Hughes?" Ed asked. Hughes looked at him worried.

"Well, that outburst in the coffee shop was--" He was cut off by Ed.

"I know I over reacted, but I had to tell her off! She is so infuriating and I just can't stand her anymore! Just being near her makes me sick! I was about to killed her there in the coffee shop! Ugh!" Ed yelled and put his hands over his face in frustration. Silence stood once again.

"Ed? I wasn't going to ask you why you yelled at Winry...I understand why you did that, I would have done the same thing." Ed looked at him not understanding where this was going.

"Then what do you want?" Ed asked irritated. 'all I want is some piece and quite!'

"I'm not even sure what I want. Roy only send me to see how you were doing and if--"He was cut off by Ed's outburst.

"What does that dumbass want! shouldn't he be with his girlfriend or something! Why would he care any way?" Ed pulled his knees up to his face to cover the tears that were coming down, Hughes didn't notice even with Ed's voice crackling like that. Hughes looked at him in confusion.

"Girlfriend? What girlfriend.?" Hughes asked.

"Don't need to play dumb Hughes, I saw you guys in the jewelry store today buying a gift for that girl." Ed said will putting some emphasis on girl. Hughes started to laugh which made Ed angry.

"What! Why are you laughing!" Ed yelled at him. Once the laughter died down Hughes spoke.

"Your jealous! OMG Ed loves Roy! Just wait until Roy hears this!" Ed jumped up.

"Don't you dare! Hughes please! Don't tell him! Please I'll do anything! Just don't---" He was cut off by Hughes who had covered Ed's mouth with his hand. He started to chuckle.

"Hehehe...you'll do anything?" Hughes cocked an eyebrow. Ed then made a sickened face and smacked Hughes hand way from his face.

"Eww! You Perv!" Hughes laughed even more.

"I'm only kidding Ed! I wouldn't do that to you! Especially one so...inexperienced." Hughes laughed Ed pouted.

"So your not going to tell him?" Ed asked.

"no...But why would you think that Roy had a new girlfriend?" Ed looked at him curiously.

"You mean he doesn't?" Ed's yes widen in surprise.

"No." Hughes replied. 'Thank God!' Ed thought.

"Well you guys were at the jewelry store and I...umm..kinda...was stalking both of you." Ed turned his head in embarrassment.

"So...you then came to the conclusion that Roy had the hots for someone else?" Hughes asked.

"Yes...and after what he did too...me. I suppose he told you everything right?" Ed looked at him. Hughes nodded.

"Ed...what if I told you that Roy does like someone?" Hughes looked away from him. Ed eyes kept looking down at the ground. He's skin crawled with anger at the thought of Roy being with someone other than himself.

"I'd kill them." Was Ed's final answer. Hughes nodded.

"Well, I only came to see if you were okay, and it seems that you are...but Ed," he looked up at him. "Roy doesn't seem to like anyone but...you." Ed looked up with his eyes widen
