Ed and Envy headed up the stairs after their meeting with Mrs. Elric and little Alphonse. Ed swung the door open to his room. Envy poked his head into the room. Envy blinked as he looked around the room. This was not how he had imagined the Chibi's room being. It was black and had red transmutation circles painted on the walls and ceiling. A few band posters cluttered the walls. He had a bed, a bookcase against the far wall, that was packed with books. A few stray books were strewn across the floor. He had a desk near his bed that was cluttered with papers. And a dresser the had a small statue of a creature that had a stone in it's hand. A few other items were tossed on the surface as well.
"Nice Room." Envy commented as he strolled casually into the room. "Thanks." Ed remarked. "You must be some heavy Alchemy believer." Envy said motioning to all the different alchemy references around the room. Ed blinked. "Yes I am." Ed said to him. "Personally I don't really believe alchemy existence but if someone can prove it does, I'll believe it." Envy said walking over to Ed's dresser and looking at the small statue. Envy stared at it carefully and looked back at Ed.
"What's this?" Envy's asked pointing to the statue. Ed looked at him. "That's a statue of homunculus." Ed responded. "A homunculus?" Envy asked. Ed nodded, "Yeah and that stone it's holding is called the Philosopher Stone. That's what originally created the Homunculi but the stone was so powerful. It was locked away from the grasp humans and is still out there today at least that's what they say." Ed explained to Envy. Envy blinked. "You are such a nerd." He said with a small chuckle. Ed glared and picked up a pillow and threw it at Envy's head. "Am not!" Ed protested. Envy grinned at him. "Yes you are." Envy told him.
Ed's face was going red. "You're asking for it Envy." Ed warned him. "Oh, am I?" Envy asked mockingly. "That does it." Ed said and tackled Envy to the floor. Envy laughed at Ed's antics. "Is that the best you got Chibi?" Envy asked. Ed let out a frustrated growl and lunged his hands towards Envy's neck. Envy caught his hands with ease. "To slow." Envy remarked and flipped the positions of the two.
Ed blinked at the closeness of the two. It took him moments to realize the situation. Envy was on top of him with his left knee pressing in between his legs. Their chest were touching and their noses were lightly brushing the other. Ed's face went as red as tomato. Envy grinned like a
Cheshire Cat. "W-What?!" Ed questioned. "You're blushing." Envy mocked. "W-Well! I-It's from this position w-we're in!" Ed stuttered, face redding increasingly by the second. "Awww, Chibi, you telling me you don't like this position we're in?" Envy asked him, leaning down so their lips were just barely touching the others. Ed's mind was reeling at this point.
"This is wrong! This is wrong! You just met him! You shouldn't be doing this!" Ed's inner thoughts were screaming. "Yeah but…..it feels right." The other part of Ed was saying in protest. "Whether it feels right or not. You shouldn't do this! It's just going to end up like the last time and you're going to get hurt!" The other part shouted. Ed's eyes snapped open at that last thought. Envy blinked. "Chibi?" Envy asked. "I-Its' nothing." Ed said turning his head away. Envy blinked in confusion. Ed's eyes seemed to be holding some sort of pent up emotion that Envy couldn't read.
Envy was kicking himself in the butt at this point. "Damnit! You did it again Envy! What the fuck is wrong with you?" Envy questioned himself and got off of Ed. Ed looked up at Envy. Envy extended his hand out to him. "Here." Envy offered. Ed looked at the hand extended in front of him, with a small Ed took it. Envy smiled in return and helped Ed off the floor.
An awkward silence seemed to fall over the two of them. "So……" Ed said trying to break the awkward silence. "Yeah." Envy said in response. "Awkward." Ed said. "Just a little." Envy said. "Did you get what was going on in calculus today?" Ed asked him. "Not a word, it went through one ear and went out the other. My brain didn't even try to process what the hell the teach was saying." Envy told him honestly. Ed hung his head. "You know, sometimes I question if you even have a brain." Ed muttered. Envy turned his head in a slow, psycho manner and held an evil face. "What was that?" Envy questioned.
Ed got a rather ticked off looking face with a slight grin to it and shoved his face into Envy's. "I said 'I question if you even have a brain.' Ed repeated. Envy narrowed his eyes, his own fake grin played on his mouth. "You know Chibi, you're really asking for it now." Envy told him, pushing up his imaginary sleeves. "I've stated before and I'll state it again, bring it on." Ed said confidently. Just as the two of them were about to engage in what could have been a recreation of World War II, Envy's cell began. Envy sighed at the hear of the ring tone.
Envy jammed his hand into his pocket and fished for his cell. He ripped it out and flipped it open. "Yeah, what do you want Greed?" Envy questioned. Ed stared as Envy paused to listen to whatever Greed had to say. Ed studied Envy's expression as he seemed to have fear flicker through his eyes for a moment then disappear. "Alright, just come down. Tell the old hag I'll be home in 15 if I run." Envy told him. Another short pause. "Fine, see you soon then." Envy said and closed the phone.
Envy looked at Ed, who was giving him a look of great concern and confusion. Envy grinned suddenly and ruffled Ed's hair. "It's nothing to worry about Chibi, my old hag of a mother is just pissed I'm not home." Envy explained. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean for to get in trouble!" Ed apologized to him. "Chibi, calm yourself. It's not your fault. I should called her and told her where I was going but I didn't really think she would care, guess I was wrong." Envy told him. Ed looked rather shocked. "Well of course she would care! She's your mother!" Ed told him.
"Eh, well, let's just say my mom's not the greatest in the world." Envy told him. Ed was once again confused. "It's none of your concern anyway. I have to go, see ya tomorrow at school Chibi." Envy told him and gave him a quick peck on his lips. Ed's hair bristled on the back of his neck and he blushed. When he finally came to his senses, Envy had already bolted. Ed blushed even darker as he still felt his lips tingle from the small kiss. Suddenly anger filled him. "I'll get him back for that!!" Ed inwardly vowed.
Moving onto Envy at the particular, Envy was currently bolted down the sidewalk, dodging garbage cans and mailboxes. In less then 15 minutes, Envy was standing on the porch of a dark looking house that held a rather creepy atmosphere. He panted heavily as he opened the door, trying to retain his lost breath. He closed the door and turned around. "I'm home." Envy announced, still rather breathless. "Nice of you to come home Envy." A woman's voice hissed. Envy cringed. She sounded pissed…..great. Envy was really in for it this time.
