A/N: Here is the last chapter :D.

Thank you guys for reading this until the very end. And thanks to The wandering Azn for critics. I really appreciate :D. It will surely help me improve my writing!

Here we go:

Riza was telling her father everything that happened. Of course, she left out the 'oh my God my commanding officer is hot' and concentrated on the action part.

"Honorable Hawkeye Berthold…" Roy said approaching and bowed.

Riza starred in shock. There was no way in hell he was there. Impossible. Still, there he was.

"I…" Roy wanted to continue, but he saw Riza. "Riza…uh, uhm, you forgot your helmet" he said insecure. "Ah, but, well, actually, it's your helmet, isn't it?" he added towards Berthold.

'Damn, I'm rambling.' He thought angrily.

Berthold nodded towards Riza amused. This boy was so in love with his daughter. That was the colonel that Riza told him about? The one that used fire alchemy? Who knows, maybe he could teach the boy a few things…even the…secret of flame alchemy? He seemed to have potential.

"Would you like to stay for diner?" Riza asked politely.

"Would you like to stay forever?" they heard Pinako from the garden entry.

Riza shook her head with a smile. Roy chuckled.

"I like your grandmother" he said amused.

"I think she likes you too"

…

Riza, Roy, Havoc and Rebecca were together at the local pub.

"…and then Wrath tried to his her, but she got his sword in her fan, twisted it and grabbed it! He looked so stupid, I swear!" Havoc was narrating.

"No shit!" Rebecca said. "I can't believe it, Riza! That's so awesome! How come you get to work under someone so awesome like colonel Bastard here, with people so awesome like Cancer Stick here, and get the chance to save China! That's just too awesome."
Roy frowned. He somehow liked this woman, still he was pretty annoyed by her.

Havoc blushed. He liked Rebecca a little too much. Rebecca. She had a nice name. He was glad he found out after all. She called him a 'cancer stick' because he was smoking.

Truth was she found it kind of hot. She wasn't going to say that though.

Riza was so happy that her new friends with her all friends got along. So happy to be safe and sound, back home. So happy to see Roy again.

She couldn't explain her urge. She just wanted to grab his hand and hold it forever.

Was she having a post-war breakdown?
She didn't feel like a hero, really. She couldn't have done it without their help. Still, the fact that people now considered her opinion, despite her sex, was very pleasurable.

"Trust me Becky, I wish you were there with me. But it was more an on the spot decision."

"Hey, Havoc?" Rebecca addressed him directly, making him blush again.

"Yeah?"

"Care to go for a walk?"
"Uhm, sure" he stuttered.

They got up and left. Rebecca winked to Riza.

'Damn her. She just wanted to leave me alone with Roy!'

They left the pub too, and walked around the village.

"Riza, what you did…" he begun. "You were incredible. How you followed me, my orders, and I think you ended up better than me"

"I would follow you into hell, sir" she said looking at the bright sky, and he shivered.

"You don't mean that"
"I do."
He stopped and looked at her. She stopped too.

"You know, for a second there I thought I was gay" he said.

"I'm afraid I'm not following sir, but I see nothing wrong with being gay"

He smiled.

"Please leave the formalities. You can call me Roy, like you did before"
"I was trying to get your attention back then" she smiled embarrassed.

"Well, pretend you are trying again"

She smiled.

"What were you saying?"
"That I thought I was gay. But I'm not"
"Good to know sir…Roy."

He smirked.

"I thought there was nothing wrong with being gay"
"There's not" she blushed annoyed. She really didn't want him to be gay. She wanted him damn straight.

"Riza?"
"Yes…Roy?" she paused, once again ready to call him 'sir'.

"You are a wonderful woman"
She looked in his onyx eyes. Did he really mean it?

"The most incredibly amazing woman I've ever met. So courageous, so reliable, so good hearted, so strong. And such a good actress" he added smirking. She smiled.

"Thank you. Is there a purpose for your compliments?"
He looked at the sky. He was known as a charmer. Every woman fainted just at seeing his smile. But this woman pretended to be a man and kicked his ass in training at some point.

He was so in love. He had never rambled when talking to a woman before. But Riza just had this effect on him. Luckily when he started complimenting her, he just couldn't stop. So he seemed to have his cool attitude again.

But when she asked him if there was a purpose…

"I…uhmmm…uhm. Riza. I…"
She rolled her eyes. For such a strong and organized man, he was a failure when it came to expressing his feelings. But it was all right. She wasn't any different.

She let go of all her insecurities and shames. She couldn't care less that she was right in front of her house and anyone could see her.

She really, really didn't car if her father would throw her out. Which he wouldn't, but still.

She put her hands on his broad chest, and moved them slowly. He was shocked. She was once again reading his thoughts.

"Riza…" he said in a shaking, husky voice.

She approached her face to his, their lips almost touching.

She felt his hot breathe on her mouth and waited. She didn't have to wait long. Roy leaned in, pressing his mouth on hers.

Riza responded eagerly, lost in the feeling. She had waited so long for this…

They both had.

He moved his hands on her tiny waist. She felt so right in his arms.

He enjoyed how her hands were gripping his shoulders, how her soft lips felt on his, how her smell was intoxicating him, how he couldn't get tired of seeing and feeling her skin….

They kissed like there was no tomorrow. She broke the kiss, when she couldn't breathe anymore.

"Roy, I…."
"You would follow me into hell if I asked you to?" he asked.

"Yes." She replied with no hesitation.

"I don't plan on going there, so how about we just stay together here?"
She chuckled.

"Very well…sir" she smirked accentuating the last word.

"Don't call me that, it makes me want to punch something" he said and she chuckled again.

"How about when we're on duty?"

"Oh, so you plan on joining me in future missions?"
"Anytime"
He smiled.

….

Riza grinned.

"Hey, Rebecca."
"Hey to you too, soldier girl. What's with the grin?"
"You fancy Jean, don't you?"
"" she said in one breathe, making Riza laugh.

"Sure. Tell me when the wedding is" she winked and got up. "I have to talk to someone"

She went to the ancestors' temple.

"Edward?"

"Hey there" he smiled to her. "How are things going with Colonel Bastard?"
"Why does everyone keep calling him that?" she rolled her eyes.

"He's bossy, he thinks he's awesome, he hit you in training a few months ago and he gave you hell at the beginning of your training"
"I was a failure. It was his job to do so. But anyway, Rebecca also calls him that. So does Havoc"
"Rebecca is jealous that someone is stealing you from her. And Jean is jealous because Mustang stole some of his old girlfriends"
Riza starred in shock.

"How do you know that?"
Edward smirked.

"I go places, sister! Gotta go, I have a pedestal to fill, some ancestors to annoy. See you later!" he said and wanted to leave.

"Edward?"
"Yeah?"
"Thank you" she said and hugged him. He smiled and hugged her back.

"Whatever. Go to your Bastard."

She chuckled as he got on his pedestal smirking.
