Haze was driving her car back to her house. She watched the road a the people pass her. She stopped by the curb of her house. She sighed as she turned her car off. She looked out her window. There was a small family passing by her car. Just a mother holding her five year old, and a father. She sighed and smiled sadly. She was rather lonely. She was almost 29. "Hughes you lucky S.O.B" She said. She put her hands on the steering wheel and rested her head on the wheel. Though she forgot that she had a horn. She didn't lift her head up right away. She said over the horn, "why did I get a car?" she lifted her head up. But the horn kept going. "OH! Don't tell me it's stuck!" she started to hit the steering wheel repeatedly. It didn't work. "GAH! WHY DID I GET A !& CAR?!" she was starting to draw a crowd. Haze quickly clapped her hands together and then the steering wheel. Light of an alchemic reaction glowed. The sound of the horn quickly stopped.

She slammed the car door open. She hit her forehead getting out. "OW! God Damn Car!!" she bent over half way in getting all her things out. Her gun, pepper spray, bullet proof chest plate etc. She grabbed everything so flustered that she didn't really have a good grip on anything. Her hands were full. She stepped back to lean out of the car, when she hit the back of her head on the car rim. "OWW!!" she leaned out and turned around. Haze closed the car door when she kicked her foot backwards. Haze didn't take one step until she tripped and did a face plant on the cement. All her things scattered on the ground. "OW! What the Hell?!" she turned her head around to what had tripped her. Her Military Butt flap thing had gotten caught in the door way. She grunted. She managed to stand up and pull on the piece of cloth. It ripped. Haze sighed, she couldn't win today. "that Roy Mustang must be an omen…" she opened the car door. Genteelly. Pulled out the piece of torn cloth, locked the car door, picked up the scattered items, and unlocked her front door.

She went in and locked the door behind her. She dumped all her stuff on the kitchen table. Haze clapped her hands together and transmuted the torn piece of cloth to her pants. She looked at. "good as new." She said dully. She looked around the kitchen then at her clock. It was about 3:35. "I can't even do anything… to early for dinner." She went to her room. There was a book case, a closet, dresser, a bed and not much else. Above the bed was something that resembled a hammock screwed into the Celine. Haze would sleep up there. The bed was just there just in case she fell. Which she did a lot. She like to sleep suspended in the air. She changed into normal clothes and laid out her clothes for the next day. She only did this once, the day before her first day as a body guard for someone. Her clothes, the same as today's. just a different set. She dropped the dirty clothes into a hamper. Which was overflowing. Haze grabbed a random book off her shelf and jumped into her hammock like bed. She let her legs dangle off to the side. She didn't get 10 pages when she fell asleep.

She jumped when she finally awoke. The book covered her face. So when she realized she couldn't see anything she panicked and fell out of her hammock. Haze landed with a "OUFF!…..eh…" she looked out the window. It was pretty dark out. "God damn it. Now I won't be able to fall asleep." she didn't.

The next day…

Roy was walking down one off the hallways with his friend Hughes. They were just chatting. That is, they WERE chatting until they saw Haze's halo-like-cowlick bobbing up and down was she walked. She was slouching just a bit more than yesterday. She let her arms dangle. There was a dark aura cloud surrounding her, and her face was filled with annoyance. Roy was taken back a little, but Hughes still talked in his happy tone. "Hi, Haze! Didn't get any sleep last night did yah." "no…I fell asleep early…I missed dinner…so I ate sometin' 'cause I was hungry…but that only kept me up more…I think it was about 4:30 in the morning when I finally went to sleep…then I got up at 5 to get ready for work…" "aw that's ok Haze, it's your first day so take it easy." Hughes put his arm around his shoulder. "Don't touch me." Hughes backed up waving his hands in defeat. "Right, right. Not until you've had your tea…" Roy asked; "what's wrong with coffee?" "I hate coffee." Haze answered quickly. Hughes laughed; "Come on Haze! What ever happened to miss 'I-can-run-on-only-3-hours-of-sleep-and-not-be-effected.'" Haze glared at him. "She died. I killed her when I got a job." Hughes laughed. Roy thought it was pretty amusing so he smiled. Haze saw his smile. "So…do you have all your info for me?" Roy went into his trademark smirk. "sorry. Must of slipped my mind." Haze didn't find it amusing. Not even a little bit. "okay then. Give it to me before lunch time then." Hughes looked a tad nervous. Haze wasn't exactly known for giving people free passes. At ANYTHING. "I'm going to get some tea…see you back at your office…Einstein." she snickered as she walked off. When she turned at a corner and was out of sight, Hughes shouted; "Roy you got to give her your info!" "why?" "because!" "You work for me, you give it to her." "hey now, that's not fair." "life isn't fair." Roy said teasingly. He started to walk off towards his office. Hughes sighed. Just more work to do now.

Haze returned to Roy's office, as happy as a clam. She entered his office. He was at his desk just looking bored resting his head on the palm of his hand. She sat down, leaned back in her chair, rested her feet on the table and stared at him. Bored. "do you have to stare at me?" Roy said. "does it annoy you?" "yes." "then yes. I do." Riza walked through the door. Haze looked at her. Her hair was up in a clip. 'her hair must be long. Huh…maybe I should put mine up. Maybe a pony tail? Nah.' Haze thought. Her eyes looking up trying to see her bangs. Riza was carrying a small bag and had a small dog with her. Haze took her feet off the table and looked at the dog. 'it's…it's so cute.' she thought. 'wait! Focus! First you have to find out who the lady is. THEN the cute dog. Damn Mustang. If would've given me his info earlier…' "Colonel, may I ask who this is?" Riza asked. Haze waved her arm in the air. "hey, why don't you ask the person herself?" "my apologies. Why are you here?" "I'm his bodyguard." "Bodyguard?" "yep. Or security officer, minder, attendant, guardian, protection officer…which ever you see fit." they all meant the same thing. "may I ask who you are? You work for Mustang?" "yes." "ah. So...how do keep him in line?" "I have my ways." Roy was still just sitting there. Yet they were talking like he wasn't even there.

Roy stood up. "Hawkeye please don't talk about me when-" he froze. Hawkeye had pulled put a gun. But less then a fraction of a second, so did Haze (she pulled it out because Hawkeye did and she saw it as a threat). Hawkeye sounded stern when she talked, but haze could see the joke behind her voice. "Colonel you shouldn't interrupt a lady's conversation. It's rude." Haze put her gun away. She somewhat chuckled. "Ha, I envy you. I can't pull a gun on my client. The whole point is to keep him alive." Riza put her gun away as well. They started to chat, and found out that they had a few things in common. Soon everyone started to arrive. They had to go through introductions each time, because, of course, they each came in one at a time. Haze was starting to get annoyed. She thought about getting a tape recorder and just play it when someone showed up. She thought Jean-Havoc was interesting. A little weird though.

People showed up and left to do their work. Soon it was 11:55. 'almost time colonel. I better have all your information by then…' Roy got up, stating that he had to use the restroom. Haze sighed and got up with him. He didn't say anything until he got up to the door of the restroom. "You're not going to come in with me are you?" he teased. She laughed coldly. "HA! As if. I'm just gonna wait out here." he went in. Haze leaned on the wall when she saw Hughes. "hey Hughes. What's going on?" "Not much. Here." he handed her a folder filled with paper. "what's this?" "Roy's info." "but he was supposed to give it to me." "he told me to do it." "hm… well this won't do." she smirked. "well unless the info is given to me other than my client…then all this data is null and void, and unacceptable. I appreciate your work Hughes. I'll give you 20 minutes on the phone to call who ever you want." Haze said, well knowing he would call is wife and kid. "Thanks Haze!" Hughes ran off. Haze looked at the folder then simply discarded it in a trash can.

Roy came out, and they both walked back to his office. It wasn't until Roy sat down did Haze say; "Colonel, it's noon and I still don't have your info." "I thought Hughes delivered it to you. Unless you give it to me what ever I receive is negated. So sit your ass down and write down your damn info for me!" "I'll have it for you after lunch." He was heading towards the door when she stepped in front of him. She hid her face with her bangs. "I'm afraid I can't allow that colonel." she lifted up her face to reveal the most evil, toothy grin Roy had ever seen. "you're not leaving this room until I have the facts." Roy sighed. Maybe he could charm his way out of this. "Please? You shouldn't be so mean to your client." Haze smirked. Mustang wasn't the only one who could charm people. She slinked around him. "Maybe if My client wasn't so naughty…I wouldn't have to be mean…" she gave the most sly smile he'd ever seen. For once Roy was the one to blush. It was only a small tint of pink, but a blush was a blush.

Eventually Roy was sitting down and writing down all his information. Haze was back leaning in her chair and feet on the table. "Can't I even go out for a snack?" "it's not my fault if you miss lunch." "Yes it is." "well you should've given me your info. And we're not leaving until I get it." "well I guess we'll be here all night, because I'm to hungry to write." "if you're energized enough to argue then you're energized enough to write. The sooner I get what I want, the sooner we can leave. I can stay here all night. Literally." "got no one waiting for you?" "nope. Too lazy for a pet. To busy for a kid." "weird I thought you get a kid by being busy." "nope. In fact there's no safer way NOT to get a kid then by being busy. There's no second person there." she obviously changed the meaning of the word busy in that sentence than the meaning in her previous one…both couldn't help but to smile.(wow that was perverted…) After a few minutes the Colonel was finished writing. "here." "see. Now that wasn't so bad. All it took was a few perverted jokes and for me to lock you in your own office." Haze had a nonchalant attitude. 'this girl has the strangest mood swings…' Roy thought. "come on let's go get lunch. I'm starving." Haze said opening the door. "I thought you could stay here all night." "I could've. But I'm a bottomless pit. So let's go eat."
