Here is chapter two! I hope the characters aren't OOC and if they are I'm sorry.
After a few more hours of work all of Roy's subordinates were gone, except for Riza who always stayed later.
"Hawkeye, you should leave early tonight." Roy said, not bothering to glance up but instead kept working.
"Why is that sir?" Riza asked, looking up at Roy.
"Because." he started as he looked up and their eyes met. "Tomorrow is the day Breda, Falman, Armstrong and I leave, which leaves you with Havoc and Fuery."
"Your point sir?"
"Well, it might be long day, since I won't be here."
"I think I'll make it sir. Besides I'll be done early tomorrow, and can catch up on sleep then."
"How is that?"
A smirk spread across her face as she answered. "Well sir, seeing as you will be gone, I can do my work without having to stop to get you working."
' Oh? She thinks she's good does she?' "So your saying I'm the reason you never leaven here on time?"
"Yes sir, I suppose so."
" Well I'm terribly sorry Hawkeye, but for you see it's your own fault." He smirked.
"Sir?"
"It's not in your job description to make me do my work."
Hawkeye glared at him, then said in a cold tone, "Well if I'm not here to make you do your work, then it will never get done, and then how do you suppose you will get to the top if you can't even sign your name of some papers."
Just as Roy was about to reply back, his best friend Maes Hughes burst through the door. "ROY!" he yelled.
Roy and Riza probably would of jumped 50 feet if they hadn't been arguing and glaring at each other. "What is it Hughes?" Roy asked.
"Another state alchemist has been confirmed dead in the East."
"What?" Roy exclaimed. "Who is it this time?"
" General Yuki Montera."
'NO!' Riza screamed in her head but kept a calm expression and she acted like she was working but was really listening to their conversation.
"How? He was an expert with his alchemy, and also close ranged combats."
" Indeed, he was but Scar got to him faster."
"So Scar really is in the East."
"What?" Maes asked.
"The Fuhrer gave ma mission to go up to the Easter HQ, and take command. Breda, Falman and Armstrong are coming along as well."
"Oh." He said as he turned to Riza. "You're not going too?"
Jumping out of her thoughts, she replied. "No sir, I was told to stay here and watch over the office."
"I see, well I'm going to go home and see Elysia, before she goes to sleep. I shall show you more pictures of my wonderfully adorable daughter some other time. Oh! And I'm glad your not leaving Riza, because you still own me a Coca-Cola!" Hughes said as he walked out.
Riza sweat dropped, and was about to go back into the past when Roy's voice stopped her. "So where we're we?"
"Sir? May I leave now? I need to speak with someone." She asked.
"Uh…sure. I'm getting ready to leave anyways so I'm going to lock up the office alright?"
"Yes sir, that's fine."
"Good, if you want I can wait in the lobby and walk home with you." He smiled. 'I'd like to spend my last night with her.'
"Why you do that sir? Don't you need to get home and pack for tomorrow?"
"So? Maybe I want to spend my last night walking my favorite subordinate home." He smiled as he watched her face change different shades of red.
"If that's what you want sir." Riza said as she walked away, toward her destination.
Riza walked slowly down the corridors. There was no sound, except for the noise of her boots hitting the tiles. Finally she was where she wanted to be. She knocked on the door. From the inside she heard a voice say, "Come in." She stepped inside and saluted.
"Hello sir?"
"Oh Riza! My grandchild! Is something wrong?" General Grumman asked.
"Yes grandfather. You see Lieutenant Colonel Hughes came in to speak with Colonel Mustang and…" she trailed off. It was so hard for her.
"And? Come on Riza tell me." Grumman said.
"Well, he said that General Yuki Montera is dead." Riza said as she held back her tears.
"Ah, yes… regrettably I've just been informed of that as well. I'm very sorry Riza." General Grumman said as he got up and gave her a hug.
" Yes grandfather sir. I must be going now." She replied as she pulled away from the hug.
"If there is anything I can do to make it easier just let me know."
"I will and thanks grandfather." She said as she saluted and walked out, heading to the lobby where Roy was waiting.
"Welcome back." He said as he stood up when she got back.
"Thank you sir." She said, "Shall we go?"
"Yup." He said as she followed him out the door and then as they walked under the night sky she walked beside him. It was silence the whole way to Riza's apartment.
"Thank you sir."
"Your welcome. I suppose I will see you in about a month." He said sadly. 'That is going to be one long month'
"Be careful sir."
"Don't worry Hawkeye." He smiled.
"Right. Good night sir." She said.
"Night."
Riza closed her door and went to her couch and cried. Meanwhile Roy was walking to his own apartment not knowing that Yuki was Riza's brother, and how badly that she was going to miss him whilst he was gone, and that she would have to hold up the office.
