Unnoticed: Hi everybody!!! Okay, I think this story is going to reach it's end… I need to finish this before I go to my much awaited summer camp! Anyway, in this chapter I'm going to include Al. This chapter happened after a week from the last chapter.
Ladies and Gentlemen!!! I present you the next chapter of What Are You Planning?
This one is in Ed's POV...
I don't own FMA… I have no further comments.
"Hi Führer Bastard! Hello Lieutenant General Hawkeye!"
"Ed, your unfair!!! Your so polite to Riza while with me it's always Führer Bastard!!!!"
I grinned at Roy's whining. "Lieutenant General Hawkeye, unlike you, deserves respect."
"Thank you Edward."
"Why you!!!"
"Sir, I believe you should finish that pile of paperwork before you talk with Edward or else I'll be forced to do actions that you do not want to happen," Riza placed a hand on her gun which made me and Roy gulp. Roy immediately went back to finishing his paperwork.
I chuckled and let Riza usher me out of his office and into our personal library slash waiting room. She closed the door making Roy's grumbles muted. "You know, I'm starting to hate those sheets of papers too since they lessen our bonding time," I told the blond hair woman who I regard as an older sister.
She gave me an amused glance. "Well, he still needs to run a nation. Also, those papers are very important documents so he can't normally be lazy. But lucky for him, the amount of paperwork he needs to do is less than when he was still a Colonel."
I grinned. "Lucky for me too."
Riza smiled. "Yes both of you are very lucky. You can go in his office after 8 minutes," with that she walked away, probably looking for Havoc.
Lucky indeed. Lucky to still be alive. Lucky to be together. Lucky enough that we made our dreams, our goals come true.
I sighed and entertained myself with a book while waiting for that 8 minutes to pass.
I must have been to engrossed with my reading because the next thing I knew someone snatched the book away from me. I glared at the person who dared to stop me from reading but I stopped when I saw my lover with an amused smirk plastered on his face. "What? Not interested in seeing me?"
I blinked at Roy. Roy smirked back.
"It's been 17 minutes Ed."
"Oh…"
"And I've been trying to stop you from reading about 6 minutes ago."
I stood up and took hold of Roy's face with my left hand while giving him a lazy smile. All in all I got the desired effect because I made his breath hitch and a small blush appeared on his face. "Forgive me?"
He kissed my hand making the skin there tingle. "Always," he whispered lovingly.
I smiled.
He suddenly grinned. "But I still have to get back at you for being so polite to Riza and not to me."
"Ooooh, I'm so scared."
"Yes, you should be."
"Führer Bastard."
"Yes, yes I am. Hey, Ed do you think I can also be…"
I looked at him curiously. "Be what?"
"Be Fiancé Bastard?"
"Fi-fi-fiancé?" I asked him thoroughly shocked.
He looked at me seriously. "Yes, fiancé… Don't you know what it means Edward?" He teased me in a failed attempt to hide his nervousness.
"I… I…" I gasped.
"Ed? You okay?" Roy asked me worriedly.
I tackled Roy and we fell to the ground. "Of course, you bastard! I will marry you!! But why?"
He kissed my head. "So the people will know we are serious, that our love is forever and I don't want to let you go. Marriage is the closest thing I can think of to keep you by my side forever."
"Silly Roy, I won't leave you again… And this doesn't have anything to do about being guilty from that incident, right?"
"No… Well, actually that incident gave me the courage and the will to put this into action. In reality, I've been planning and preparing for this for at least 5 months now…"
"5 months!?!?! You idiot!!! I can't believe you made me wait for 5 months!"
"Well, I was scared!!!"
"Sissy!!! Why were you afraid?"
"I thought you wouldn't say yes."
I sighed and laid my head on his chest. "Guess I wasn't the only one who self-doubt in the past."
"Guess we're even then…"
"You know, I love you Roy…"
"I love you too Edward," he whispered and took my left glove off my left hand and placed a shining and simple silver ring.
We kissed and let our hands roam. I felt bliss knowing I belong to this man and he belongs to me. And in the future I will be with him legally.
Our small intimate bonding was broken when the telephone rang. We hesitantly and regrettably broke away and Roy answered the phone.
"Yes?"
"Sure, connect the line." I looked at Roy, who seemed to be slightly nervous. I wonder who that was.
"Yeah, it's me."
"Yeah, he's here." Roy glanced at me. Now, I was curious, someone was looking for me? But who?
"Before you speak to him, can I ask you something?" Roy looked at me and waved a hand to the door, signaling that he wanted some privacy. I was confused but agreed and silently went out.
I felt slightly anxious. Who could that be? I stared outside the window, looking at the dozens of soldiers walking around the place like little ants. A moment later, a hand was placed on my shoulder and I looked up at Roy's smiling face.
"It's Alphonse."
That made me relax and went to answer the phone. Yet I suddenly felt nervous. Will Al approve of our decision to marry each other? Al knew we were lovers but marriage is a much more serious thing. I looked at Roy, trying to convey my thoughts. He just gave me a small smile and then he looked out of the window.
"Hello? Al?"
"Brother!!! I just wanted to talk to you but you weren't home so I called Führer Mustang's office and then… I can't believe your getting married!"
"Ah…" So Mustang already told Al.
"I was a bit hesitant at first but Führer Mustang sounded sincere and serious. So I agreed to give you two my blessing."
"Thank you Al…"
"Don't worry about it… I just wanted you to be happy. You've given me so much… How can I be selfish and deny you the happiness that you deserve? You are happy with Führer Mustang, aren't you?"
"Yes Al, I truly am. You don't know how much your approval means to us."
"I can guess. Man, I can't believe I'm that important."
"Believe it."
"Still can't believe your getting married though…"
"Don't worry! After my wedding I'll immediately plan your wedding with Winry!!!"
"Brother!!!"
I chuckled and he joined me.
"Oh! Winry needs my help! I need to go now!!!"
"Bye Al, tell them I said hello."
"Will do Brother! Talk to you later."
I stared at the phone and set it down. Arms hugged me from behind and I relaxed into the embrace. I chuckled. "Al always had good timing."
"Yeah, I was surprised too. Then I had to ask for your brother's consent which he readily gave."
"Is it really that embarrassing to ask for Al's permission that I had to leave the room?"
"You have no idea…" A sigh tickled my ears.
I chuckled and we just stood there. Happy and content. We know there will be bumps along the way but we'll be able to handle it.
"Oh, by the way… There isn't gonna be 100% milk in the reception, right?"
"Of course Ed. Don't worry about such a little thing like that."
"You-!"
Unnoticed: Awww… The two are going to get married!!! The next chapter is going to be the last one. I hope everyone is fine with this kind of ending. Oh well!!!
