This one is a bit longer. one-fifty words, but it's all good. Enjoy.
The house was quiet… vacant, really, when Edward was away on 'business'. No decent foods to eat at his dinner table, no one to keep him warm at night, no one to use their cold, metallic limbs to wake him up and make sure he was on time for work…
And of course Ed had no cares when it came to Central. He preferred to stay out as long as he could for his search. Roy was far from his mind, when Aru was concerned.
But Roy remained patient. He gladly sat in his office, waiting for Fullmetal's tirade, and then go home… to a decent meal and a nice cuddle session.
The last thing that Roy wanted or needed on his mind was Ed's death. His family, Hughes… Ed was the last straw, his last chance. He wasn't letting him go, not that easily. He'd make him understand that.
