8: Fever

Sorry I have not been updating the reason is on my page please look.

"ED!" Al shouted for the 18th time. "ED OPEN UP THE DOOR OR I WILL!"

No answer. Al sighed, it was the next morning and he wanted to try to find some more Info before Ed and Roy had to go back to work. He was hoping to get them back to normal soon so he could spend more time with Mei.

"Fine I told you," Al said before he kicked in the door.

Al started to walk down the hall when no one came. "Roy you up!" Al yelled. Moments later he heard footsteps and saw Roy pop his head out the door of a room to his right. "There you a-," Al cut off as Roy put his hand up for since. Roy motioned for him to come when all gave him a questionable look. "What is it Roy?" Al whispered when he reached the door.

Roy stepped into the hall and closed the door behind him. "It's Ed, I don't want to wake him." Al stared wide eyed at Roy. "He's ok, just a fever. He was up before me and came and told me he wanted to make breakfast, I told him he could. About 10 minutes later I hear a clang and when I went in the kitchen I found him passed out on the floor. He woke up not to long ago. I got him to eat some toast and he fell asleep. I think he might just be tired from the past few days, He probly picked up a cold on the way too." Roy said the whole thing in a whisper as not to wake the sleeping blonde in the next room.

Al nodded, "I'll go to the library awhile." With that he tip-toed away.

*^Neko Neko!^*

The rest of the morning the house had a depressed feel. Not a sound was hear or even made till lunch. Roy had gone to the library to tell Al he was going to check in on Ed and asked if he wanted to come with. Al had dashed over and they made their way silently to Ed's room. Ed was up when they opened the door. Roy checked his fever, it had gone down allot and was almost normal. They had all eaten lunch in the guest room with Ed and when lunch was over Roy had to make sure the young blond did not try to help his younger brother. He was suppose to be resting not reading. Ed was not very happy about it but feel asleep in the end.

Al and Roy were now standing by the front door, It was getting late and Al wanted to get back.

"Roy, I'm going to be going to Xing with Mei this week, ok." Al said as he walked out the door. "I plan to be back on Friday; do you think you can keep brother under control till then?" Al gave Roy a somewhat sad smile.

"I hope so, I would hate for him to blow my house sky high." Roy was amazed he could say it off handily with a straight face. Al only shook head.

"See you." And with that the young boy left.

Roy closed the door and headed back in, He was just thinking if he should catch a nap himself or go cook dinner first when he heard a familiar voice call his name. "Roy." Said man just sighed and went to his young blond friend.

"Yes Edward." He said slipping into the room.

"Come here." Roy walked over to the bed as he was told.

"Yes."

Ed looked him straight in the eye, he looked like he was about to say something that could kill everyone in a mile if he said it. Roy shuddered, Ed took a huge breath before, "Can I have a cookie?"
