A/N: Hello! Here's chapter five. Thanks to those who reviewed the previous chapters. You guys give me the energy to continue this fic. Okay here's chapter five. Sorry if there are some grammatical errors or typos. And why do I update so often?

Disclaimer: FMA is not mine... (Do you really take time to read this?)

She angrily crumpled the paper and threw it in the trash can. "Roy wouldn't do that to me. He would never cheat on me." She assured herself as she went in to her room. Roy had stopped going to bars and hotels after she became his girlfriend. But these past few days, something different was happening to him. He stopped calling her for a few days, he yawned so often that it looked like he hadn't got enough sleep, he had this pile of receipts on his desk, and he talked to Maes in private so often... Yes. He's with Maes. As long as Maes was with him there will be nothing wrong. He'll surely lead him to the right path... But what if Maes wasn't around? Finally she got out of her thoughts and went to his house.

"What happened here?" He asked them as he got out from his car.

"We were eating our dinner when we noticed that the kitchen in the first floor was burning. Thanks to these men, the fire didn't spread out through the whole house and only the kitchen on the first floor was severely affected. The floor of a bedroom above the kitchen was partly burned. The kitchen appliances in there were all damaged." Maes explained.

Roy let out a heavy sigh. "Being betrayed by my own powers... that's embarrassing."

"Roy, if you think this was an accident then you're wrong." He took a folded scarf from his pocket and unfolded it. "Look, these were the ashes I saw on top of the stove. These aren't ashes of wood. Probably these are ashes of grasses or something leafy." He explained.

"You mean someone intentionally burned it?" Roy asked. Maes nodded in response.

"Well, I think I have to order those appliances again." Roy grimaced. "I'll surely toast that someone who did this."

"Don't worry, Roy, I'll try to investigate about this incident." Maes assured him.

Riza knocked on Roy's door several times but it seemed like no one's inside. "Roy?" She called again and again but there was no response.

Suddenly, an old woman passed by. She was Roy's neighbor and Riza knew her. "Miss Hawkeye?" The old woman said.

"Oh, madam, you're there. Good evening." Riza greeted.

"Good evening, too. I thought you were with Roy tonight."

"No, he wasn't with me. That's why I went here. Have you seen him?" Riza asked.

"Huh? He left an hour ago. I thought he went to your house." The old woman said. "In fact, he always leaves his house at this hour and I thought he always accompanies you at night."

Riza frowned at her explanation. "Uhhh... is that so... Thanks for informing me." And with that, she ran away from his house.

As she got home, she immediately lied down on her bed and buried her face on the pillow. She can't help those tears fell from her eyes. "What does that mean? Is he really cheating on me? Is he really with another girl tonight?! No! He can't do that! I know he couldn't!" Riza cried more on this thought.

The next day, luckily, it was her day off. She got out from bed as she heard Black Hayate barking and Roy's voice calling her from outside. She opened the door and Roy greeted her with a smile.

When she opened the door, he was surprised to see her very depressed face and reddened eyes. He had never seen her like this.

"Riza, are you okay? Are you sick today?" He concernedly asked as he hugged her and kissed her forehead.

"No, I'm okay. I just didn't get enough sleep." She lied. "By the way, I'm off today. Don't slack off on your work." She said without even smiling.

"Of course I won't." He smiled as he released her from his hug.

"Uhh... Roy..." She wanted to ask something but a different question came out of her mouth. "Uhh... D-did you sleep well last night?"

He chuckled on her question. "Oh... Uhhh... Not really. My mind was filled with thoughts of you last night and they kept me awake until midnight." He smiled.

She stared at his eyes for a second. That's true. He didn't sleep well last night. But the reason, she figured out, was false. He was the one to break the silence.

"Uhh... got to go now. I think I still have mountains of papers to sign." He slowly walked away from her house.

"Don't you dare go anywhere when I'm not around." He smiled on her statement. But this was rather a warning to him.
