V: Hawkeye – Part I
It hung on the wall next to the filing cabinet. One day to a page. One number to a sheet.
First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye entered the office in her usual brisk fashion. She entered her name in the duty book and headed across to the coffee pot. With an efficient manner she quickly disposed of the old beans and replaced them before flicking the machine on.
Then she turned to the calendar and stopped. The date had already been changed. She looked around, nothing else had been disturbed. She checked the waste bins but found nothing. Whoever had removed the page had taken it with them.
She frowned. She recalled Edward's strange performance of last week. Since then she had kept a discrete eye on him. Apart from smiling a bit more, he had been his normal mouthy self.
Hawkeye had also watched his interactions with the people around him. He had argued with the Colonel, teased Breda and even embarrassed Havoc and Fuery when he had opened the wrong door. He hadn't acted any differently with them.
But why would someone want yesterday's date? Did it even have anything to do with Edward?
She was going to find out.

Author's Note: These are fun.
And thanks to the reviewers: Bar-Ohki (thank you, there should be more short and fluffies...lol), hanjuuluver ('shifty eyes'... mebbe), Magic-Noise (of course you will...lol... i tend to be much more verbose so working to a limit of 200 words -and being cute- is an interesting exercise for me so i'm glad you're enjoying these)
