Two months has passed by in a flash. There was no sign of that woman with the mask. Still Envy felt uneasy. It was like waiting for a sniper to shoot you in the head.
It was dawn. The sun was rising which made the snow on the ground sparkle and turn a tint of blue. Envy always woke up early to watch the sun rise.
Moments passed and the sun was fully risen. Its light basking Envy in a warm glow.
"Its going to be another cold day. I can tell" said a voice walking into the living room. The green hair turned blinking. He saw were it came from and smile a bit.
"Edward did you sleep well?"
The blond yawned a bit " Yes. It was pretty warm having you sleep beside me."
Envy blushed and looked back out the window. The window was covered in frost and condensation. Reaching out he touched the glass feeling the stinging of the coolness on his palm and fingertips. The palm he had cut a while ago. It had a faded scar now.
Edward watched Envy with interest. He wrapped a arm around his waist and moved closer to the window. Using his finger he began to draw something. Envy blinking watching and smiled. Edward was drawing a kitty.
"Al would love this when he sees it." Edward commented. The other just nodded and touched the glass again. He began to draw something.
"What are you drawing?" Edward asked.
"The sun"
Soon Envy finished drawing and smiled.
"Its pretty good." The blond said sitting down and pulling Envy down with him. Envy's back was against Edward's chest as he sat between his legs. Edward had his arms wrapped around the green hair teen shoulder's.
"Today is my day off. That bastard Mustang finally gave me one." Edward spoke up after a few minutes of silent.
"Really? Do you want do anything special?" Envy asked.
"I don't know...perhaps we can just walk around the city. You do need more clothes. The ones you have won't keep you too warm. It gets pretty cold here in Central."
"Oh" Envy said blinking.
"Don't forget. You are not a homunculus anymore. You will freeze without the right type of attire. I don't want you sick. Its not fun."
"I don't think being was fun to begin with" Envy blinked. He was never sick before. It sounded awful.
"Damn Straight! You have to take all this gross medicine! It tastes like shit!" Edward snorted hating the thought of taking medicine.
Envy laid back against Edward. "Lets sleep some more."
The blond smiled instantly and picked up Envy. Who just blinked confused.
"Am I heavy?" he asked.
Edward shook his head no. "Light as a feather" he walked to his room.
Envy laid on the bed Edward moving over him. He pulled the blankets over them both.
"What are you up to?" Envy asked.
Edward smirked playfully and ran his flesh arm under Envy's shirt. He was stoking his belly.
"You hands are cold!" The green haired teen yelled trying to moved Edward's hand out from his shirt.
"Yes, but your belly is so warm...." Edward chuckled.
Envy reached up and un-did Edward's hair from its messy braid.
"Hey!" the blond yelled frowning.
Envy laughed " We are even now."
Edward smiled and lifted up Envy's shirt and began to kiss the coldness away. Soon his hot tongue ran across Envy's skin leaving goosebumps in his wake.
"E-Ed" Envy shuddered trying to suppress a moan..
"hmmm...?" he asked moving up to Envy's chest. He removed the other's shirt and tossed it on the floor.
"T-that feels so nice..." Envy moaned. Soon he felt their lips touch is a gentle kiss. Edward wrapped both of his arms and held Envy tightly.
The phone rang.
Edward frowned and got up and reached over answering it.
"Hello?"
"Are you awake Full Metal?" asked Roy.
"Kinda of...If your asking me to come in I'm not going to! Its my day off!"
"I need you to come in, but its only for a few hours. No more than two." Roy said with a amused tone.
Edward growled "Fine! I'm coming now! " he slammed the phone down.
Envy stayed silent.
" Sorry but they are asking to come in. Don't worry I will be back later. Then we can go to town. " Edward smiled and leaned over kissing Envy gently.
The green hair ex-homunculus smiled "Alright. I just sleep until you get back."
"Alright See you" Edward got up and began to get dressed. He wore a turtle neck. Grabbing his red jacket he ran out.
"What is so important that you called me in on my day off?" Edward asked annoyed as he walked through Mustang's door. "is it another mission?"
The black hair man smirked " Something like that Full Metal." he sat back in his chair. " You see...tonight Fuhrer King Bradly decided that all the staff needs a bit of a treat. A formal party."
"What is this? High school! What does that has to do with me?" asked Edward.
"All the alchemist's must attend. This party is very important." Roy explained. "Its formal...I trust you will ware the proper attire and also you must bring a date. The party start at eight o clock tonight."
Edward frowned and got up "is that all?"
"Yes, you can go" Mustang said watching Edward bolt out the door. He wondered who he would bring as a date. How amusing this will be.
"Stupid Mustang! Stupid party! " Edward growled as he walked into his apartment. He walked to his room and found a sleeping Envy. His anger vanished. Walking over he sat beside Envy and began to stroke his hair gently.
Envy stirred and awoke blinking. "back already?"
Edward smiled and nodded "Yeah...it was nothing important. Just information about a party that I must attend tonight. Also I need a date."
Envy tilted his head and moved his bangs out of his eyes. "A date? " he sounded a bit jealous.
Edward noticed this and blinked. "Yeah..." then he had a idea. HE would show up Mustang and whoever he brought.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEnnnnnnnnnnnnnvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvyyyyyyyyyyyy" Edward smirked as he said Envy's name word a extended amount of time.
The green hair teen blinked not liking the sound of Edward's tone or the way he said his name.
"Will you be my date for tonight?" Edward asked looking very innocent.
" Oh you sure? I mean we are both guys. Wouldn't that be a little awkward to explain to your co-workers?" Envy asked.
" Yes, yes but I won't be going with you as a guy."
" You know I don't have any of my powers left. I can't change into a another form anymore" Envy said looking at Edward eyes.
"Yes...I know." Edward smiled and touched Envy's cheek. " Get dress and lets go to town we need to buy things"
Envy blinked and got up to get dressed. Edward watched him happily a plan cooking in his mind. He got up and ran to the phone. He needed to make a important call.
Stepping into the living Envy wore blue jeans and a black sweater. Edward hung up the phone and smirk. Envy felt worried on what was going to happen.
" Lets go" Edward smiled happily at Envy. He blinked and followed the blond out.
Some hours passed. It was late afternoon. The door opened and Edward, who was carrying ten different bags. Envy walked in behind him carrying on small one. "Are you sure you didn't want me to carry any more bags than this.?"
Edward snorted " Yeah! I said I do it and I did! " He but the bags down.
"Brother!" Al walked out of his room. "you're back. Guess who is here! Winry! I didn't know she was in central!"
" Yeah...she was taking some time off. I forgot to mention it to you. Sorry about that Al"
"I heard my name!" Winry ran out from Al's room smiling. "Hey Ed...you little a tiny bit taller!"
Edward frowned "Can it! I didn't invite you over here to insult my height!"
The blond female ignore him and ran passed him. She had sparkles in her eyes as she looked at Envy.
"You are so beautiful! I never thought Edward would find a girl at all but on top of it he found himself a beautiful one! My name is Winry Rockbell! " She shook his hand.
The green hair teen was confused. Did Winry think he was really a girl? Show he speak up?
Edward pulled Winry away "Stop that. I didn't call you here to idolize my date. Anyway This is Envy and he isn't a girl"
Winry froze and stared at Envy then at Edward, the back at Envy. She did this for two minutes straight. Envy felt awkward.
"WWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT??!!" Winry squealed.
Envy held his hands over his ears. "Its true" he said blinking. He watched Winry beat the crab out of Edward.
"Why didn't you tell me you were gay! Did you think I would reject you for it! How could you think that! I'm your best friend! Of course I would support this!"
Envy couldn't help but laugh really hard. Al sigh and laughed as well.
"you two are not helping! " Edward growled and rubbed his head. "Anyway...I called you here because I have a little plan to get back at that bastard Mustang! He knows I had formal events. So I'm going to make him jealous with my drop dead sexy date!" he pointed at Envy who wore a face of confusion.
Winry looked at Envy and blinked and figured out Edward's plan. "So...your going to dress him up in drag?"
"What?" Envy asked blinking. "Drag? "
"Yes. You pretty enough to pass as a girl...please Envy. Pretty please" Edward begged.
"Fine. But this is the only time!" Envy growled looking at Edward.
The blond smiled "Good because I already bought you a dress."
"......." Envy sighed. This was going to be a very long night.
" I can't wait until Full Metal comes. I wonder who he got as a date" Mustang said in his suit and tie.
Riza sighed wearing a dark blue strapless dress. Her arms folded. "I don't know Sir. Why do men have to have these stupid little competitions?"
Roy watched as people began to arrive " Because of honor"
Riza sighed "Honor my ass" she mumbled.
Mustang saw Edward walk in alone. "Look he didn't even bring a date" he smirked.
Edward turned behind him and walked out the door "You okay Envy?"
"Why did you get these kind of shoes with such a high heel?" he asked in a whisper trying to walk in a straight line.
Edward grabbed his hand " Sorry....just hold on to me."
Envy did so and got better balanced.
Edward smiled " And Winry did a good job you look amazing."
"Thanks I think...." Envy smiled as they walked through the doors.
Riza turned and saw Edward and blinked. She noticed his date was a taller beautiful woman with strange color hair but didn't take away from her beauty. Riza was impressed. Roy was talking to Hughes.
Edward held on Envy's hand " You don't need to talk if you don't want to"
"I wasn't planning on it. I don't really know anybody here. " Envy felt embarrassed.
Mustang finally noticed Edward and Envy talking in a corner. "Oh...god.."
Hughes blinked turned looking at Edward "Wow! Look at Edward's date! Beautiful! Lets go say hello Roy!" he dragged him over.
"Edward!" Hughes yelled happily.
Both Envy and Edward turned blinking.
"Hello Hughes....Mustang" Edward said frowning a bit.
Roy walked passed Edward and looked at Envy and took his hand. " What a beautiful woman Edward. How in the world did you snag this one?"
Envy didn't like Mustang at all. He sounded like a snob. Edward frowned and smacked Roy's hand away. "Leave her alone" Edward growled.
Roy glanced down at him then over at Envy he picked his hand up again. "Please, my lady just one dance." before Envy could replied he was dragged away by Mustang.
Edward fumed "Damn that bastard!"
Mustang smiled "you know you are very beautiful. Too beautiful for that little shrimp. How did you meet?"
Envy blinked "I kinda just fell into his life"
"Interesting..." Roy said putting his hand on Envy's hip. This made the ex-homunculus feel uncomfortable. They began to dance.
After some time of dancing Roy took Envy outside onto the balcony. "You would like to go on a date with me?"
Envy frowned. "No. I'm with Edward"
"Oh come on. Dump the shrimp and be with a real man." Mustang leaned in to kiss Envy but the green hair teen frowned and kicked him right between the legs.
"Only in your dreams ass hole! No wait not even in your dreams! " He yelled and kicked him in the stomach and walked off to find Edward.
The blond past through people in search of Envy. He saw him walking out from the balcony. "There you are!" he said and hurried to Envy.
"Yeah. I hate that stupid ass hole." Envy fumed.
Edward blinked "What did he do?"
"He tried to kiss me...but before he could I took care of him. I beat the shit out of him."
Edward blinked and laughed "I really wish I was there for that!" he took Envy's hand. "Lets go while everyone is distracted." they both rushed out.
"Sorry for making you go through all that torture." Edward said as they walked into the apartment.
Envy blinked and smiled "Its okay. Its over now." he took off the heels. "I"m going to change" he went into Edward's room.
Edward followed Envy into the room. He wrapped his arms around him and held him tightly. The green hair teen blinked and turned.
"You being very affectionate"
Edward nodded " Yeah. Only for you" his hand slipped behind Envy. Slowly Edward unzip Envy's gown and let it fall to the floor. Envy blushed and took off Edward's jacket.
The blond pushed Envy on the bed gently and moved on top of them. Their lips crashing against one another forming a passionate kiss. Envy held onto Edward tightly.
In the morning Envy woke up to find Edward was gone. Sitting up he found a note on his pillow, It stated that Edward had to go on a mission for two days and will be back. Sighing Envy laid back against the bed feeling a bit lonely. He wished Edward didn't have to leave so much but then again...it couldn't be helped.
Envy got up and got dressed. He wore jeans and a white sweater with a black tank top underneath. He let out another yawn and walked to the living room. It was too silent. He walked into the kitchen and looked around.
Something was here. Envy picked up a iron skillet.
"Hey ug-!" a voice started to say but Envy turned and slammed the iron skillet into Greed's face. Blinking Envy backed up. He frowned
"What do you want Greed? How did you find me? " Envy growled still holding the Iron skillet.
The short brown hair homunculus rubbed his jaw. "Damn you didn't need to hit me."
"What do you want?" Envy pressed on.
"I wanted to see if it was true. If you were really human.." Greed smirked.
Envy frowned staring at the homunculus. "Alright now leave"
Greed moved closer to Envy smirking "And what if I said no."
Envy slammed the skillet into his head again.
Greed grabbed it right before contact and pulled it out of Envy's hands. " Oh so easily disarmed. I will enjoy my revenge on you. For all those insults all those times you defeated me."
Envy backed up as Greed stalked forward eying his pray.
"Damn those chimeras. Lucky there was only a few right Al?" Edward asked opening the door.
"Yeah! " Al said happily as he and Edward walked through into their apartment.
Edward's eyes widen. Everything was broken and a mess.
"W-What happened?"Edward asked shaking. He ran in "Envy! " he screamed and entered the kitchen. He glanced around frantic. Where could Envy be? In his panic he slipped and landed on his bum. He had slip on blood. Edward eyes widen farther and notice there was a trail of it leading to his room.
The blond got up from the floor and followed it. Al was close behind him. Edward gulp as he had a hand on the door knob he open the door. What he saw he never expected.
"G-Greed?" Edward asked seeing the brown hair homunculus laying on the bed covered in cuts and bruises.
" H-hey kid" Greed spoke his voice husky.
"What happened to you? Where is Envy?" Edward asked.
"Taken" he said softly. "By a woman in a mask."
"A WOMAN IN A MASK??" Edward screamed. He didn't know what to do. He felt like screaming and crying. Then he noticed Greed's hand. His Uroboros tattoo was gone. Slice away like Envy's was.
"Greed....you're human"
