Chapter 9 A Woman's Touch

Ed sat in the guest room holding himself. Hughes came in and sat next to Ed.

"Hey it's alright, you're safe now." He coaxed Edward.

Maes ruffled his hair a bit with a smile. Ed had already changed into his sleep-ware, and Al looked worriedly at his brother who was holding back sobs.

"I hate this." Ed said in a cry. "I hate these emotion." Tears ran down his face.

"What?" Hughes asked.

"I get upset too easily now! I hate being a girl!" Ed screamed.

"It's not that you aren't brave Ed. If any man turned into a girl I'm sure he'd act the same way, and being cased by chimaeras isn't very nice either." Hughes tried to make Ed feel better.

Ed latched onto Hughes, and Hughes patted him on his back.

"There, there, just let it all out." He whispered.

He stood up.

"To be honest I'm not really good at this kind of thing. I'm going to read a story to my darling daughter Elysia." He smiled. "I'll send in Glacier okay." He smiled.

Glacier wrapped her arms around her husband when he entered Elysia's room. He kissed her on her forehead, then looked at his daughter with smile.

"How's are my angels?" He asked happily.

Hughes sat on her bed, and brought out a book.

"I'm going to read you the story of the beautiful princess Elysia." He said with a smile.

Glacier smiled as he read, then walked over to Ed's room.

"Eve?" She whispered.

Ed looked up, his eyes full of tears, and his face red. She sat next to him, and pulled Ed close rubbing his back.

"It's okay dear." She smiled.

Ed knew that Hughes didn't tell Glacier anything. Ed sobbed in her stomach, and Glacier stroked his hair.

"It hurts." He cried.

"What hurts?" She asked worried.

"I feel like I'm being torn apart!" Ed screamed.

Glacier blinked, and titled Ed's face to look at him, then gave him a hug.

"Shhhsh, shhhsh, shhhs, it's okay. Tell me about it." She asked lovingly as she rocked Edward.

Edward sniffed.

"I don't understand (sinff) why I feel this way." He stated.

Glacier hugged him, and patted his back. She rested her head on top of Edwards.

"Every time- every time I-

He began shaking.

"WHY DO I LIKE HIM!" Ed screamed.

Glacier remained silent so "Eve" could tell her everything.

"I HATE HIM! STUPID JERK! LOOKING AT ME THAT WAY!" She screamed.

"I know I don't understand everything, but it sounds like you really like this boy." She said softly.

Ed looked at her. His heart was racing at her words as he thought about Mustang. How he fought him the first time when renewing his license .How he looked when he used his alchemy, full of happiness, and that smile, with those half open eyes. Ed could feel his heart pound hard against his chest. He remembered how Mustang protected him form the other two jerks that tried to pick Ed up. The flame wall, and how he pulled him close using himself as a shield. The look Roy gave him when he ate his food that sent shivers through out Ed's body. How badly Roy was pushing himself to find a cure for Edward. Even going against his morals to teach Ed to fight. As Edward remembered these things tears ran down his face.

"Brother." Al cried kneeling by him.

Glacier looked at Alphones and blinked. Al realized his mistake and had a lot of sweat drops. Glacier ignored it, and looked at "Eve". "Eve" got up, and grabbed his red coat, and put it on tightly. Ed looked at Glacier, and nodded.

"Thank you." He said pushing his tears aside. "I…I have to go see him." He shook while saying it.

"Tomorrow." Glacier whispered.

Ed looked at her for a bit, then shook his head no running out. It was still raining.

"MAES!" Gracier screamed.

Hughes dropped the book, picked up his daughter, and ran to his wife.

"Eve just ran out, she said something about a boy." Glacier explained.

Maes handed his daughter over to his wife, kissed her on the cheek, and ran out the door grabbing his coat. The run was fairly long to run from Maes's to Roy's, but he new a few short cuts. He could hear Maes screaming his name, and would make sure his voice was really far behind him. Maes stopped running as he saw Ed very close to Roy's house. He huffed, then looked to Ed's right. His eyes opened wide in fear.

"Roy!" Ed screamed.

Roy was under his canopy on the porch drinking heavily. He looked up, stood up quickly, dropping the large sake bottle that smashed on the ground, and jumped off his porch running to Ed. Ed put his arms out in front of his face as if reaching for Roy. It was then he froze as a blinding light hit him in the face. He looked to see a jeep speeding towards him, then felt the wind get knocked out of him as he was pushed to the sidewalk. Maes helped Ed up. As Ed looked up, he saw Mustang get hit by the jeep and was sent hurling away from it, upon contacted the ground his body bounced, and finally slid to a halt.

"NOOOOOO!" Ed screamed.

The jeep turned around and Hughes glared at the licenceplate number then run to Mustang fallowing Edward. Ed held Roy's head in his lap. The flame alchemist winced then opened his eyes slowly. Ed rested his forehead on Roy's and started sobbing.

"Why did you do that?" Ed cried.

"Because I love you." He whispered. "I don't even care if you hate me anymore. I'll take a car hit for you any day." He said with a smile.

Ed froze. Maes knelt down ignoring their conversation, and felt Roy's body for any broken bones. When he got to Roy's rib cage Roy screamed out in pain, but quickly suppressed it.

"How bad did that feel sir?" Maes asked worried.

Roy's body shook at the after pain.

"Well, we'll need a stretcher to carry you out then." Maes stated. "Stay here Ed, I'm going to call an ambulance." He stated running in Roy's house.

Ed nodded and then too his coat and used it as an umbrella for Roy's face. He smiled at Roy weakly, then bent down to kiss his. As Ed pulled himself away. Roy blinked and was shocked.

"Why did yo-

"Because I love you." Ed smiled.

The two smiled at each other.
