Hi guys. Thank you for commenting. So then onwards with the story. Thank you for reading the story to all those amazing people reading the story. The song is One Love by Monsta X a Kpop band in the story I used the english translation of the lyrics.
Envy leaned heavily on Daejin, slowly moving his legs in something that could be considered a limp. He had grown closer to the doctor over his days in the hospital and was actually really glad that he had. Daejin wasn't as annoying as he had first come of as and had never failed to take amazing care of Wrath, not to mention he was already walking in a month which was a recovery speed no normal doctor could have accomplished.
"Envy, I don't want to push you to far today, alright? We'll continue tomorrow," Daejin murmured quietly in an encouraging tone that made it seem like the doctor was the incapable one, not Envy. Envy sighed a little, which Daejin had learned to take as a sign of resignation and lead Envy over to his bed. That was approximately when Wrath burst into the room, smiling at Envy before turning to Daejin.
"Daejin, I am bored," the brat whined and the doctor only smiled before scooping the homunculus onto his hip and carrying him to the bed closest to Envy before placing Wrath down and pulling out his laptop finish of some paperwork.
"Alright then here is a story for you both," Daejin stated absentmindedly, his attention going to whatever was on his laptop screen. "Life once met Death and kept annoying him. So Death told Life that he will only answer one of her questions so she had better chose wisely. So Life asked the question, "Why is it that everyone loves me and hates you?" Death only scoffed at the Life's innocence before grimacing at the girl. "That is because you are a beautiful lie, whereas I am the harsh truth," Death answered coldly before turning his back on Life, ready to walk away. He was stopped by Life holding out her hand and gripping his wrist, "Well then, doesn't a truth and a lie combined make reality?" the wisdom of the question shocking Death," Daejin smiled at his computer screen as Envy heard the small snores of Wrath drifting from the mattress which Daejin had deposited him on.
"Can I come in?" Envy heard the annoying voice of the chibi known as Edward Elric and bit on his lip to stifle his groan. The chibi had made it a habit to come in as often as he could to help Daejin take care of the homunculi. Even though Envy would never admit this to Daejin, part of the reason that he had forced himself to allow Daejin to help him was so that he wouldn't have to deal with the pipsqueak known as Edward Elric. Daejin seemed to know a lot more than he let on, so Envy assumed that the doctor had only helped him because the doctor could sense his confusion.
"Come on in, Ed," Daejin murmured loud enough for the alchemist to enter, but quiet enough to show that he was preoccupied with something work related.
"Hey, Daejin. How have you been?" Edward asked a little to loud, disturbing the sleeping Wrath who Daejin immediately started to lull the homunculus back into sleep after a glare was sent Edward's way.
"Alright, ignore me then," Edward growled out dejectedly. "Looks like you are getting better, palm tree?"
"Just like you are getting shorter, pipsqueak?" Envy bit back, his snappy retort further disturbing Wrath.
"Fuck you both, I am going to another room where Wrath can rest in peace," Daejin growled, gently lifting the sleeping homunculus and walking out of the room. Envy immediately regretted not using a hushed tone seeing as now he was trapped in a room alone with Edward Elric.
Edward took a deep breath, thanking the gods that Daejin had finally left him and Envy alone. True he had wanted to yell at Envy for calling him short but an angry Daejin was scary so he calmed himself down instead and asked the question. "Envy, about the hospital, why did you...," Edward trailed of unsure of how to ask anymore, unsure if he should ask anymore. Edward's eyes had flitted down to his fingers that where now fondling with the red fabric of his trench coat. For some reason Edward couldn't drag his eyes away from his hands, he couldn't stop his teeth from drawing in a corner of his lower lip for him to chew on in the silence. Envy on the other hand had no explanation for the days that Edward was hospitalized. It had been to torture Edward at first, but Envy knew that there was something more than that he just didn't know what. He knew that it wasn't his need to see Edward crying that had driven him to the hospital day after day when Edward was hurt, yet he couldn't help but wonder what had led him to Edward's window every day with a box of food. Envy knew that it was wrong for him to feel less annoyed at the shorter male, it was wrong for him to feel a little smile creep on to his face whenever Edward visited him nowadays that he would hide in a smirk after formulating some witty insult..
"I don't know," Envy replied honestly the intimidating layer of scorn Envy always laced in with his voice faltering.. That statement finally unfreezing Edward's eyes and causing them to widen to the size of saucers as they locked onto Envy's amethyst orbs. Envy hadn't visited to hurt him, that thought also gave Edward the courage to do the one thing he thought he would never be able to do, despite a month of thinking and considering. It caused Edward to press his lips into Envy's in a truly pathetic attempt at a kiss. A mere moment of soft pink lips brushing lightly against chapped ones before the ringing of a phone pulled them out of the moment that only the red tint of Edward's cheeks could confirm. The ringtone sang, "One love, I didn't know what love was. Two love, even though I didn't understand love. Three love, now I want time to be ours.", before being cut of after Daejin had answered the phone.
"Edward, there has been an attack and they need back up," Daejin called out and Edward bolted out of the room leaving behind a still stunned Envy sitting on the hospital bed. Eyes glued to where Edward once was and fingers slowly drifting up to his chapped lips in confusion.
