AN: OMG their finally getting married I LOVE WEDDINGS.
I long to go home Chap. 18
The lady at the organ looked at Edward as Al disappeared and Edward nodded to her. She began to play as Mustang walked up next to Edward and Hawkeye stood across from them. The door at the end of the aisle opened and Al stood there. He reached his hand out to his side as Winry appeared and he took her hand and wrapped her arm around his. Hawkeye smiled and as a small tear formed in her eye at how beautiful Winry looked.
Edward felt his knees begin to shake then he looked up at her and she took his breath away. She looked so beautiful in the dress just as he pictured she would.
Pastor John walked out as they walked down the aisle. Armstrong and Kashmir both broke into tears and whaling.
"Who gives this woman in holy matrimony?" He asked.
"I do" Al said smiling as he placed her hand in Edwards. Winry handed her bouquet to Hawkeye and all stared on as the pastor performed the ceremony.
When it got to the part to exchange the rings Edward reached in his jacket pocket and pulled out the box with the wedding band in it and placed it on her finger and smiled at her. She then took the ring he gave her and placed it on his finger and smiled back at him as the pastor finished the ceremony.
He looked at Edward "You may now kiss your bride." He smiled a sideways grin and pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
"Ladies and gentlemen I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Edward Elric" the pastor smiled.
Armstrong was still bellowing as Hawkeye walked over by Mustang. Both girls came running up "Mom….dad." As Edward pulled all of them into a hug.
Then he looked at all his girls "Well Mrs. Elric are you ready to go?" He took her hand.
"Yes Mr. Elric anywhere with you." She squeezed his hand.
Edward turned to everyone "Thank you all for being here." He looked at Winry "It means a lot to us." he then looked back to them "You're the only family I have ever known and you all mean a great deal to me." he put his arm around Winry's waist " Now if you'll excuse us me and the misses have some business to take care of." he winked then turned to Mustang "I'll be there in the morning just give me tonight."
"You got it Fullmetal" Mustang smiled and walked over to Winry "You look lovely" He kissed her on the cheek "Take care of our boy"
She nodded and gave one of her bright smiles "Mmm hmm"
He walked over to Hawkeye and put his arm around her then reached in his pocket and handed Armstrong a hankie "Stop crying you big ape."
Kashmir walked up to Edward "THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!" She sniffed "But what do I do know?"
Edward smiled " Come on I'll get you a hotel room and we'll start what I have to do tomorrow."
They turned to walk out and Winry threw her bouquet backwards and Hawkeye caught it.
"Well we know who's getting married next" Edward winked and gave them a thumbs up.
They got to the hotel and Edward got Kashmir a room next to theirs. They put the girls in their room along with the stack of alchemy books they got from the library. Then they walked to their room as Edward picked Winry up and carried her inside "One day I'll do this again when we get our own house." He smiled setting her on the bed and turning to remove his jacket.
"Edward" she said softly.
"Yeah"
She jumped up as he turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck and began to cry.
"Heeey" he said softly pulling her closer "What's this?"
"I'm so happy right now and I don't ever want to feel any other way than I do right now." she was still sobbing.
"Oh Winry" he smiled and sighed "Your such an emotional wreck sometimes but that's why I love you so much."
"I AM NOT!" she pushed back from him.
He raised his eyebrow "Then why are you crying?"
She grabbed the front of his shirt and pushed him backwards on the bed "I'll show you an emotional wreck Edward Elric." she unzipped her dress and let it fall to the floor "HOW'S THAT FOR OVER EMOTIONAL?"
He grinned "Damn that's a beautiful sight." she walked over and pushed him onto the bed laying over him as their lips met.
Kashmir awoke about an hour later to noises and screaming that she couldn't make out. She jumped up and grabbed her sickle and walked into the hall. Walking over to the girls room she listened at the door but there was no sound. She got to Edwards room and all she heard was "No…No….NO! ED…WARD NOT NOW!" she kicked open the door.
"MR. FULLMETAL WHAT'S GOING ON? ARE YOU OKAY?" to her surprise all she saw was a huge lump on the bed under the covers.
Edward pulled the cover back slowly reviling his head and Winry's who was on top "KASMIR WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
She covered her eyes "I-I'm sorry I thought something was wrong with all the noises."
Edward burst out laughing "Yeah my wife can sound like someone's killing her sometimes."
"ED!" Winry smacked him.
Still laughing and looking at Winry "I told you to use the pillow."
"Well I was a little occupied at the time" she laughed.
"I'm going back to my dreams of Fuery now." Kashmir turned "Can you guy's keep it down?" she shut the door.
Both Edward and Winry laughed as he threw the covers back over their heads. Then he pulled them back down "Hey did she just say Fuery?"
"Yeah I think so" WInry said breathing heavily.
Edward smiled "Ah ha" he knew her weakness now and he was going to rectify the situation.
"Ed can you please concentrate." Winry said moving on top of him.
"Huh…ooooh Yeaaah" he lost all thought of what he was thinking about at the time.
The next morning Edward awoke and looked down at his beautiful wife sleeping next to him 'Wife' he thought ' That's something I thought I'd never get to say' she rolled over on her back and stretched as he put his hand on her stomach and began talking to it "Heeey how's daddy's boy?" he rubbed his hand back and forth.
She opened her eyes and smiled "Ed who are you talking to?"
He moved his face to her stomach "My son"
"What? Edward I'm not pregnant" she gave him a sincere look.
He smiled at her "I told you the first time we made love Winry you had gotten pregnant."
"Edward" she couldn't believe it because she didn't feel any different.
"I know Winry" he smiled "You just wait" he got up and turned to her "Oh and it's a boy." he's so sure she thought he'd lost his mind or was it just his wishful thinking.
Then she started thinking about it but shook it off as just hoping.
She got up to get dressed and put her shirt on reaching into the suitcase for her favorite black skirt she put it on. She noticed it was a tad bit tight around her stomach ' Oh great now he's got me doing it' she thought 'But he seems so sure' she started to think about when she had her last period it was the week before they made love. So she was due for another one in the next week or so 'Alright' she thought let's keep an eye on this.'
Edward came out of the bathroom "What are you doing?" he saw she was in heavy thought.
"Now you've got me thinking crazy Edward, I swear sometimes your so odd." She bent over to pick up her shoes.
He walked over as she stood up and wrapped his arms around her waist and patted her stomach then whispered in her ear "Listen to me Winry your pregnant with my son."
She turned to face him "Edward I-" He kissed her and cut her off.
Then he leaned back inches from her lips "Trust me on this" he smiled and walked to the door "I need to make a phone call I'll be right back okay."
She nodded as he left her with many questions running through her mind. Was it true? Could I be pregnant? Has he completely lost his mind? How could he know? No one knows till you start throwing up or gaining weight. Yeah' she thought 'He's lost his mind maybe this is another symptom he was having.' she would have to talk to Mustang about this. But he seems so sure.
Edward dialed the phone and Mustang answered "Hello Mustang here."
"Hey General I have another favor to ask you." Edward said smiling.
"What is it Fullmetal?" He groaned.
"I want to borrow Fuery for a couple of days to help with the paperwork." Edward waited for an answer.
"I thought that's why we gave you Kashmir?" Mustang said fiddling with his paperwork.
"Yeah but she's going to be busy being the legs between you and me. I need Fuery to keep the papers straight." He was hoping Mustang would agree.
"Well I don't know-" he was cut off by Edward snapping.
"WHAT'S HE DOING RIGHT NOW?"
"He's standing here." Mustang smiled.
"Well let's put him to work" Edward snapped back.
"Alright…alright I'll send him over" Mustang hung the phone up "Kain Fuery you need to report to the hospital to help Fullmetal."
"Wow he requested me Sir" He hadn't seen Edward since he came back.
"Yes he needs help with something he's working on." He motioned for Fuery to go.
"Okay I'm on it Sir" He saluted and left for the hospital.
Edward walked up the stairs and met Kashmir in the hall "Hey Kashmir I've requested that Fuery come help us." He smiled inside as he watched her freak out a little.
"Uh….Uh….okay" she said fidgeting with her clothes as he walked away.
He got to the door to the girls room and opened it each one was passed out with a book open in front of her. He walked in and looked around at all the books on the floor and thought they must have been up all night reading. They looked just like him and Al used to he bent down and picked each on up and put them in bed and kissed their forehead.
Kashmir came through the door "I told them they needed to sleep last night but as you can see neither one listened."
Edward smiled covering both of them "Yeah there my little book worms." he stood up "Can you watch over them then bring them to the hospital later?"
"Yeah sure" she said as he turned to walk out "Mr. Fullmetal Sir are you going to be alright."
"Call me Edward" He smiled "Yes Kashmir I hope so."
She watched him leave and realized that what she witnessed yesterday in the hospital was probably more severe than she suspected. She had just met Edward and already he treated her like part of the family and even trusted her with his kids. She hoped they could make him better.
Edward opened the door to their room "Winry are you ready to go?" there was no answer "Winry" he spotted her on the floor and ran over and picked her up and put her on the bed.
She opened her eyes slowly and looked at him "Edward" she looked around "What happened?"
"You were on the floor are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?" Edward asked checking her from top to bottom.
"Winry what happened?" He asked.
"I don't know I just got really light-headed and the next thing I knew you were here." she was a little confused.
"Are you okay now?" He was concerned he was glad they were going to the hospital because he wanted her checked out.
" Yeah I think it's all the excitement in the past few days" she smiled "I'll be fine."
"Okay" he said " Do you want me to gat a car to take us to the hospital" he looked at her "Because I want you checked out."
"Yeah maybe you should" she sat up as someone knocked on the door "Room service here's your breakfast."
Winry turned green and jumped off the bed and ran to the bathroom.
Edward opened the door "I think we'll skip breakfast my wife has a touch of morning sickness." He shut the door and smiled "Maybe now she'll believe me."
She came back in the room "Edward I'm sorry I really don't know what's wrong."
"Reeally try thinking back to being pregnant with Crystal." he smirked.
She thought for a minute then got a surprised look on her face as a squeak left her "Eh" she put her hand on her stomach "Edward I think I'm pregnant" she smiled "You knew" she looked shocked "But how?"
"I just knew" he smiled as she hugged him "That's why I wanted to marry you now I didn't want our children to have unwed parents anymore. We need to be a family now and lean on each other." she knew what he meant and she let go of him.
"EDWARD ELRIC YOUR NOT LEAVING ME. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY DOUBT LEAVE YOUR LIPS!"
"Winry I come to terms with whatever's going to happen. I just want to make the last of it happy for everyone." He explained.
"NO! I WON'T ACCEPT THAT AND NOW THAT I'M PREGNANT YOU SHOULDN'T EITHER." She screamed.
"Winry" he was concerned because she was getting so upset he reached out for her to hug her and she started beating on his chest "NO…NO…NO!" She yelled frantically "I'M NOT LOSING YOU I'LL DIE TOO!" Her legs gave out and he fell to the floor with her as he held her tightly tears began to roll down his cheeks."
Kashmir knocked on the door "Edward is everything okay?"
"Yes" he said as winry sobbed.
He pulled her face up "I'm sorry Winry I didn't mean to upset you so bad." She saw the tears on his cheeks "Are you going to be able to help me with this? Can you be strong for me?"
She swallowed and took a few deep breaths and shoved every feeling she had at that moment down and gave him a solid answer "Yes Edward I will and I can."
He kissed her forehead "Thank you" he then helped her up "Let's get to the hospital I'm sure Fuery is already waiting for me."
She needed to talk to someone and the only person she could think of that could talk some sense into Edward was Hawkeye.
"Edward can you have Hawkeye meet me there?" She asked softly.
Edward knew she was going to need someone to confide in. He didn't want her to have hold all this in "Yes I'll call her for you."
"Thank you" she turned to walk to the bathroom and that's when she heard the gasping. She turned around only to see him hit the floor and there was blood coming from his mouth.
"EDWARD!" she ran to the door and flung it open "KASHMIR HELP!"
"What" she looked in the door and saw him "Oh my God!" she said softly "I'll get somebody." she took off down the stairs screaming for a phone.
