Song Three: Average Girl by Barlow Girls

So what I'm not your average girl
I don't meet the standards of this world
Chasing after boys is not my thing
See I'm waiting for a wedding ring

I frowned upon hearing the dreaded words.

I hated getting asked out by a girl. Or guy. It was just so... pointless in my eyes. If I accept I would go around for a week or two before confirming what I already know; she isn't the one for me. Not that I even had two weeks.

What's irritating is the already present strings I hold with this girl; she's one of my best friends.

Yes, that's right, Winry Rockbell had just asked me out. Winry, as in my best friend since birth. My brothers life long crush... My brothers love. Just asked me out. Not my brother who deserved it. Me. And I hate it with a passion.

I bit my lip as I think about the pain I'm about to stab into my friend. My best friend.

"I'm... sorry, Winry. You already know what I think about dating..." She frowned at that, a few wrinkles adorning her pale forehead.

"But... I thought it was... I though I was different... I thought you felt the same..." I can see the tears forming at the corners of her sparkling, shocked blue eyes.

"I'm sorry, okay? Please don't cry..." I stepped forward to comfort her, but she stepped away with painfully hurt eyes which tore at my insides.

I shouldn't feel that; it's not my fault she got mislead... or was it? She seemed to think that I loved her back, but I couldn't. I needed to go into central to meet with this Mustang person. I'm only twelve, for hells sake! What do I know about love?

It's not even that; she can't possibly expect me to stay here when I put my brother in this mess, can she? It's my fault he's missing his whole body! I'm leaving to go and do whatever possible to get it back! Even become... even become a dog! ...Of the military of course. I wouldn't actual transform myself into an animal to get him back; what would that do to help?

Anyway, even after I've cleaned up this mess I'm not going to go out with her. It'd too embarrassing. Don't even ask why, it just would, okay?

No more dating
I'm just waiting
Like sleeping beauty
My prince will come for me
No more dating I'm just waiting
'Cause God is writing my love story

Again it's happened! I didn't even know this girl! It seems the fact I'm leaving has been leaked into the town nearby! How many girls are going to keep asking me out; I've told every one of them I'm not bothered!

...No, I don't think I'm gay. I wouldn't accept it if I was, I mean, come on! Edward Elric, gay? I'd be the talk of the town!

...I guess it wouldn't be too bad...

Of course I haven't already seen someone! What, are you stupid? I told you; I'm not gay! Eugh, stupid mind.

It hasn't been an hour since Winry asked me out and already two girls have asked me out. And one guy... Eugh!

Anyway, I think I'd better say something; I've been standing here while she asked me out. Whoops.

"...Sorry, I'm not looking for a girlfriend." Huh? She raised an eyebrow at me...

...She raised an eyebrow at me!

"Ah, no! I'm not gay either!" I must have looked disgusted at the thought because she calmed down. Oh, god...

I guess it's not that I'm not looking; more that I'm waiting. Yes, I'm a sucker for love stories, you got a problem?!

...I'm arguing with myself. Maybe I'm going insane? ...Nah; I'm way too cool to go insane.

Boys are bad that's certainly not true
'Cause God's preparing one for you
If you get tired waiting till he comes
Gods arms are the perfect place to run

That bastard! Whoever he is, I hope Roy Mustang burns in hell!

He just made me sort out his mess! Lazy bastard!

Guys like him make me angry; they never do anything themselves and let everyone else do their dirty work!

Me, Al and this Hughes guy are sitting in a compartment with what's-his-name on the train, we'll be arriving at the stop any minute. Where that bastard will get one hell of a headache from me!

I hate guys like him!

... No, not all guys; guys like him. Guys aren't bad, I'm living proof of that.

Sleep that's the only thing
For me 'cause when I sleep Gods
Preparing one for me

I must have fallen asleep during my angry ranting because I've just woken up with Al shaking me.

With cold, metal hands.

Eugh, I shouldn't think about that depressing stuff; I'm about to give Mustang-bastard a headache. On purpose.

I'm walking out the door and I see him.

And that's when I find myself unable to shout at anything any more because he is just so damn sexy. Damn it, I thought I wasn't gay?!

Thank fuck I'm a good actor.


Mwuhahahaha, a new chapter! I really like this song as well :D

I think that turned out well; I really like it! First time I've done Ed's view :] I think it'd be just like Edward to get angry at getting asked out. And he's hot enough to be town heart throb :D ...Well, I think so :P

Disclaimer: None is mine but the... drabbleness.

Review, Favourite and tell me of any mistakes, mm'kay?

Thanks, hope you enjoyed!
