"Roy and Riza: Accidentally In love"
Authored By: Fallenangelescence23
Chapter 7-Rainy days
In the outskirts of Central City rain continuously poured down, citizens of Amestris were seen running from the streets back and forth to find shelter. A certain blonde watched them in amusement by her square wooden framed window from the second floor of her residence.
She sipped her coffee with delight inside the mug. Her pup began to tug on the hem of her skirt with his teeth. The first lieutenant placed her mug on the window frame and lifted her pup up, placing him on her lap. She carefully stroked his black fur while the Shiba Inu looked at his master with his eyes filled with wonder.
The door creaked open, catching the attention of the first lieutenant. A soaking wet flame alchemist came inside. Closing the door behind him, he leaned on it.
"I see your back from work; didn't you bring an umbrella with you? You're soaking wet." Riza began.
"I can't forecast weather and the car broke down." He replied.
"Hold on," the blonde got a pink handkerchief from her pocket and wiped it on his face.
He got hold of her hand. "Your hand is cold."
"It must be the weather." She replied. "Why don't you go and take a shower before you get sick?"
"Yeah," Roy rubbed his wet jet black hair. "I'll go do that…" he disappeared inside the bathroom.
The first lieutenant felt her right hand against her cheek. "His hand is so warm, it felt so nice feeling his hand against mine…"
---------
When the colonel stepped out of the shower he dried up with the blue towel and tied it around his waist. He exited the bathroom and went to the bedroom he and his beloved shared, He dug inside in the drawer for some dry clothing. His eyes quickly looked away and shut the drawer as he caught glimpse of feminine underwear. "I forgot that Riza and I exchanged drawers mine is on the left from now on…"
He sighed as he walked over to the drawer to the left of the room and withdrew his clothing.

After changing the colonel presented himself to the blonde by the window, she was still watching the rain go pitter-patter.
"Why don't we do something else? I hate watching the--wet...wet...rain." the flame alchemist said in disgust especially when he came to the 'rain' part.
The first lieutenant smiled and placed her mug on the coaster. "What do you have in mind?"
"I-" Roy looked outside as his wife grinned.
"How about we go outside and enjoy the rain? I'll get my sweater." the blonde suggested as she went over the coat rack and her superior trailed behind her.
"I don't think that's a good idea, I get all anxious when a slight raindrop hits my skin." The colonel reasoned out. "Besides I just showered and came from the rain."
"Come on, Roy, you can just shower again plus it's going to be fun!"
"How do you know? You're not a flame alchemist." Roy cocked one eyebrow, still refusing to go outside. His subordinate frowned in a manner.
"That's okay; I'll go outside by myself." Riza wore her sweater above her tank top. "And who knows...I might bump into an interesting guy who's not a flame alchemist." she exited and closed the door behind her.
"...Interesting guy?" The raven haired colonel shook his head. "Wait Riza, I'll come with you!" he bit his lip and grabbed the closest umbrella for he hated being exposed to rain.
When they stepped out of the house, Roy popped the umbrella open right above his head and his beloved's. He slipped an arm around her waist pulling her closer to his chest.
The blonde felt her cheeks grow hot.
The two began to walk along the side walk; they walked past the bakery which had this 'open' sign indicated on the glass door.
"I love the rain." she stated.
"I hate it." Roy said in disagreement.
Riza chortled as she twirled outward of the shade of the umbrella, the rain quickly wet her dry portions; she continued spinning feeling the rain droplets on her face.
"Honey, you might get sick like last time!" he worried.
"...That's perfectly fine!" the blonde was so un-Riza like. Riza continued enjoying the feeling of the rain, it made her hair damp and her clothing too.
Roy dropped the umbrella and ran to his love.
"Why Roy, you're all wet." she clasped her hands on the sides of his face. The rain rinsed his usual black messy hair.
"Yeah, Riza I'm not kidding, you might get sick."
"Remember when we kissed? It was raining like this." Riza looked up at the sky which was dark
"No, I don't." The flame alchemist smirked and pulled Riza's arm, making her twirl inward to his chest. "Maybe we should recall the moment."
"It's not an appropriate location and—"She was interrupted when he captured her lips with his, her eyes grew wide for a moment then suddenly shut tight. A moan escaped her cherry tinted lips as he massaged his tongue with hers; she automatically wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.

"Gracia, can we go home now?" a lieutenant colonel asked, in one hand he held a grocery bag on the other he held an umbrella, protecting himself and his wife from the rain.
"No, Maes, I still have to buy a loaf of bread." The woman with hazel brown hair said as she opened the door to a certain bakery.
"I'll wait here." Maes stood beside the lamp post and his wife nodded approvingly as she entered the bakery store.
He leaned against the lamp post with his hands fully loaded, from the corner of his eye, he spotted something…someone rather…not someone…people…
"Hey! Roy!" Hughes called out to the two people…sharing…a kiss.
Roy broke the kiss and stared awkwardly at his best friend. "Maes!" he walked over to his friend followed by the flushing Riza who was covering her mouth with one hand.
"Hey, Riza, Gracia's inside." The lieutenant colonel pointed to the bakery shop with his thumb. The blonde nodded and entered the bakery shop.
"You dog, you did it again!" he elbowed his friend on his abdomen.
Roy winced and pain and clutched his stomach. "Did what? Ouch…"
"You kissed her!"
The raven haired colonel regained his strength and stood upright with one of his eyebrows cocked. "Is that a problem?"
"No, it's just that…YOU LOOK SO CUTE TOGETHER!!"
"Just grow up, Maes."

"Hey Gracia," A blonde greeted Gracia by the counter.
"Riza!" her friend exclaimed. "You're all wet!"
"Yeah…well…I thought bathing in the rain would be fun…" the sharp shooter rubbed her head in embarrassment.
"You're so silly, Riza." Gracia got the paper bag from the baker which contained the items of bread she purchased. "Why is your lip stick smudged?"
"I…um…"
"Riza, sweetie, time to go home…" Roy called out as he entered the bakery store.
"Hey Roy, don't tell me you also bathed under the rain." Mrs. Hughes greeted the colonel with a heart-warming smile. The colonel chuckled and Gracia's smile faded.
"Roy, are you wearing lipstick?" she peered on hsi lips with curiosity.
"…Huh?" he felt his lips with his finger and found that there was some red substance on his finger.
"Did you two—" Gracia's eyes widened but soon softened as she began to laugh. "Roy, you are so—amusing…even under the rain, you always know how to please a lady..."
The first lieutenant flushed with a few shades of red.
"I'll see you two next time, I have to make Elysia her favorite peanut butter and jelly sandwich." The hazel brown haired mother grimaced and she waved good-bye as she left the bakery store.
I Have to end it here, can't seem to find the time to update anyway, I will try to replace this chapter because I didn't place to much effort on this—honestly…thanks for all your support!
