Warnings: EdxEnvy (Edvy)- Yaoi (BoyxBoy)

Many nights follwed, when Envy would come to sit on the windowsill of the hotel the Elric brothers were staying in. He would sit there for a while, just staring at Ed's sleeping form, watching. With each passing night, he couldn't help but notice the reaccuring nightmares the boy had. He just couldn't seem to get a single night of peace. Every night was a new nightmare, and every night Envy would leap down from the windowsill and walk across the room with his face set in a scowl. He would pad softly over to the bed and glare down at the troubled boy. He would climb onto the mattress. Every night he would do this. Every night he would wrap his arms around the boy's small shoulders, holding him tight for the rest of the night, until morning would come and the boy's younger brother would return from a long night at the library. He would begrudgingly let go of Ed, carefully resting him back on the soft mattress, tucking the sheets up to his chin. He would jump up onto the windowsill, never once taking the time to look back before he was gone, silently aching for the next night he would come and do it all over again.

Every night he came, and every night Ed remained oblivious, not once waking up. And for that, a part of Envy was grateful. He feared how Ed might react if he woke up one night, only to find himself in the arms of his worst enemy. Envy sighed sadly at the thought. How would he react? He'd probably lash out at him. Envy supposed it was fair. How many times had he fought the tiny alchemist? And how many times had he caused him to grieve, to bleed? How much pain had the homunculus caused him?

Envy quietly climbed onto the windowill, grabbing the sides to pull himself inside. He perched himself on the sill, gazing in. His eyes automatically found Edward. He was laying on his side, facing the window. His face was relaxed, more peaceful than Envy had ever seen him. His face wasn't masked with his usual scowl. His brow was smooth and unfurrowed. His golden hair, let loose from his signature braid, cascaded around his shoulders in waves, a few strands curling at the nape of his neck. Thick lashes cast shadows along his cheeks.

He found himself entranced as he jumped from the window, landing softly on the ground. He stood and walked over to the bed, glaring at the alchemist's prone form. It was all routine. He pulled back the sheets and curled up next to Ed, pulling him to his chest once again. His fingers instinctively tangled themselves gently through his hair. He ran his fingers through the soft, fluffy locks. He smiled slightly. Who knew a guy could have such nice hair? It was almost funny. He played around with his hair, his mind wandering as he held him close, a small smile gracing his lips.

Ed inwardly cursed himself as his face burned brightly, thankful for the fact that his face was pressed against Envy's chest, effectively hiding the blush dusting his cheeks. He fought back the urge to smile against the homunculus. Why the hell did he feel so happy anyway?

He opened his eyes in surprise when he felt slim fingers running through his hair, and he almost laughed. Envy, the most dangerous, sadistic bastard he knew, was playing with his hair. The thought was just so strange, so utterly bizarre. He closed his eyes again, enjoying the feel of it.

He didn't know how long Envy had been visiting him. He didn't know how many nights the homunculus had been coming, but one night, he had just suddenly woken up to the feel of someone's arms around him. His head had been comfortably resting in the crook of someone's neck. At first he had been alert, his mind shouting at him to move away, all of his senses screaming sirens at him. His body had automatically tensed, and he feared whoever the intruder was must have noticed and knew he was awake. He stayed as still as he could, before finally raising his eyes to look up. He was met with a very familiar face. His eyes widened in shock as he saw Envy. His mind went into overload, and not knowing what to do, he stayed like that the rest of the night until Envy finally left throught the window. After that first encounter, Ed found himself impatiently waiting for the next night when hopefully the homunculus would return, making sure he left the window open each night before he went to bed. Often times he would stay up waiting for Envy to appear, except for the nights he was too tired to stay awake.

Now, he found himself listening to the sound of the other's steady heart beat, snuggled contentedly in his arms. His eyes snapped open once more when he felt Envy shift against him, sitting up next to him, careful not to jostle him. Ed frowned slightly as his heart gave an uncomfortable pang. He didn't want him to leave yet. His eyes shifted to look up out the window across the room. His frown deepened. The moon still shined brightly in the sky, along with the twinkling of stars. He listened carefully. There wasn't the loud clanking noise that usually came with Al's arrival. He scowled against the mattress. It wasn't time for him to go yet! Envy stretched, getting ready to stand up and make his quick retreat. Ed glared at his back. Oh hell no! Without a second thought, he quickly sat up, reaching out to grab the other's wrist. He felt Envy jump in surprise, and Ed hurriedly tugged him back on the mattress beside him. Before he could react, Ed wrapped his arms around his slim torso, burying his face against the side of his pale neck.

"And where do you think you're going," he demanded. Envy's wide eyes slid down to look at him. He gaped at him.

"W-what... I, uh... I-I," he stuttered dumbly, his brain refusing to form any coherent thoughts.

"Y-You weren't supposed to wake up," he offered lamely, blushing madly. He felt Ed's lips pull up into a grin.

"I didn't." Envy's eyes widened as his mouth opened in closed repeatedly, trying to form words.

"Y-you... you mean you were awake the whole time?!" If possible his face grew even redder. Ed nodded against him. Envy clamped his mouth shut. He averted his eyes, choosing instead to stare out the window. Ed scowled and tightened his grip around him, pouting slightly. Envy couldn't help the smirk that spread across his face as he twisted back around in the smaller boy's arms. He drew him closer, resting his chin on top of his golden head. He grinned.

"So you're not going to try and kill me then?" Ed raised an eyebrow.

"I could ask you the same thing." Envy chuckled and shrugged. Fair enough. He hugged him tight and together they sat in silence.

"This is going to be difficult," he said softly. Ed nodded sadly.

"Yeah, I know." Envy looked down at him.

"And you're sure you won't regret anything?" Again, Ed nodded.

"I'm sure," he said firmly. Envy grinned again as he pressed his lips to his forehead. Ed jumped in surprise, but the surprise was not unwelcomed.

And so they stayed like that the rest of the night, in each other's arms. It would be difficult, but they were both willing to work it out. They would make it work.

I apologize for the rushed ending and I hope you liked this chapter. I've decided I will continue on and make this a series of Edvy oneshots.
