Roy nodded dumbly, ignoring his date's babble but pretending that he cared. He sipped his wine and flinched as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Her screeching voice began grating on his nerves as she spoke.

"Rooooy." She purred. "Are we doing anything…special…tonight?" she snuggled up to him and he sighed. He rubbed his hand across his face when she wasn't looking and acted apologetic.

"I'm sorry R…Stephanie." He internally gave a sigh of relief when he used the correct name. "I have business to take care of when I get home. Portfolios, bills, shipping slips, all of that fun stuff." The woman on his arm pouted with her full lips and stood.

"Alright. Fine." The hands went to the hips which Roy knew, from experience with Riza, was never a good sign. "You've been avoiding me all week until now and you almost called me by a name that started with and R and I'm sure it would have been your maid's name." Roy's eyes widened as they shot up to her. Surprisingly, Stephanie's eyes softened and she sat next to him again, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Why do you insist on going out with so many women like me when your heart obviously isn't in it? Why don't you tell her that she's the one you that you want sitting next to you in these restaurants? Why don't you tell her that you want to hold her coat for her to slip into, that you want to make her breakfast in the mornings? That you want to do all of those things that she does for you everyday. Even if it was just once." she waited for a moment but Roy just stared wide eyed at her and she sighed.

"Just because I go out with you doesn't mean that I'm as brainless as those other bimbos. I can see how you feel about her. Now go home. Think about what I said and win her while she's still yours." With that Stephanie kissed his temple and smiled, leaving him alone in the restaurant.

AN: Veeeeeery short chapter :[ Oh wellz! I wanted to add more to this chapter but it kind of seemed appropriate to stop this chapter right here. Leaves you AND Roy thinking :] I hope it's not going horribly so far. :\ I'm always very nervous when I start a new story cause I feel as if it starts slow and I feel as if I won't be able to satisfy some of my readers! :O haha But! Onto more chapters and reviews! :D
