I guess I'm supposed to put a disclaimer right? I think I keep on forgetting. But what's the point? If I owned Full Metal Alchemist I wouldn't be writing this fanfic now would I? Oh well...might as well...

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Full Metal Alchemist, not the manga, not the anime...not anything. What would I give to own Roy Mustang though...hehe...

Hi. Really sorry for taking so long. I got writer's block like you wouldn't imagine. I ended up adding a short chapter in Alphonse's POV. I kinda felt bad that I already had 12 chapters and I hadn't given him one yet...now...who else haven't I given a chapter?? Oh well. This is short, kinda funny cause it involves a river and Mustang.. Hehe.. hope you like it. Please read and review!

Chapter 13

Alphonse

Sophie-san is really nice. She helped brother and even put a spell on me when we got to the river so I could swim and not have to worry about the seal brother put on me so my soul would stay in the armor.

Nii-san and I played in the water. Then suddenly Sophie-san pushed Mustang-san in too!

Mustang came up, spurting water and really really mad. It was so funny!!

"Are you insane?" Mustang-san shouted, "You could have killed me!"

"Don't be silly." Sophie-san said, "The deepest part is just a little over five feet! The only person capable of drowning here is Edward."

"Hey!!" Nii-san protested.

"I'm getting out." Mustang-san grumbled.

"Suit yourself." Sophie-san said to him before turning to the girls, "Winry-chan, Riza-chan, you can go play too. I'll get lunch ready.

"Do you need help?" Riza-san asked.

"I'll be fine."

"Okay."

Winry-chan ran to the edge of the river. She laughed as she jumped in. She made a huge splash!!

"Winry!" Nii-san yelled, "You splashed me!!" he stood in waist-deep water and glared.

"Bleh!" Winry-chan stuck her tongue out at him and splashed him again.

"Hey!!"

"Wait for me!!" Riza-san called, running to join the fun.

I saw Sophie-san try to help Mustang out of the river but he ignore her.

Jeez, he can be a bit nicer…it was just a joke after all.

I inched closer to hear what they were saying…

"You can stay if you want." Sophie-san was saying.

"With those delinquents?" Mustang-san asked, "No thank you."

"Don't you ever have fun?"

Mustang-san looked straight into Sophie-san's eyes. She didn't blink or turn away.

"I'm too busy to have fun."

"Poor you." Sophie-san said teasingly, "Well, now that you're on leave, surely you can take a break."

"I am not accustomed to taking breaks, Silvertongue." He said stiffly.

Sophie-san looked sad.

"Maybe you should change that."

"Why should I?" Mustang asked irritably, "I have a goal…and I'm not stopping till I reach it."

"I'm not stopping you, I'm just saying that maybe it's good to take a break once in a while."

"You're crazy."

"If you insist." Sophie-san said quietly, "Everyone is crazy in one way or another."

Sophie-san then turned away, she was looking directly at me so I decided to go back to where Nii-san and the others were.

I don't know what happened next with Sophie-san and Mustang-san. Oh well. It's not really my business.

I went and played in the river with Nii-san, Riza-san and Winry-chan. We had fun. That's all that matters to me right now.

Told ya it was short. Sorry. I'll try to make the next chapter longer. I think I'll go back to Sophie's POV though. It's hard to write in anyone else's. Hehe... Oh well. Please review...if only to let me know I'm not the only one out here.

Sorry again.
