Chapter 17: Calm Before the Storm
"I like this" Roy said with a sigh of contentment.
It was about 6:23 am and he was currently lying in his bed with the woman of his dreams resting her head against his shoulder.
"You like getting up at 6:30?" she asked turning to look at him "who are you and what have you done with Roy?"
"Haha" he replied dryly "I was referring to the calm feeling I get just laying here with you"
Riza smiled at that as he softly stroked her hair. After a few sweet silent moments she nuzzled his neck a whispered "Enjoy it while it lasts"
"We don't have to get up for another half hour I've got time," he answered lazily.
"What I meant was that the rest of the day will be total chaos"
"Oh Riza stop being so negative"
"Today's the annual inspection of headquarters Roy"
"What?!?!" he exclaimed and sat up abruptly which flung Riza forward.
"You got a memo two weeks in advance and I wrote it on your calendar" she said while turning so that she was sitting facing him.
"Who's side are you on?" he growled playfully.
"Well I'm a soldier first…" she started jokingly
"Oh really?" he asked while gently pinning her down by the shoulders. "Well I'll have you know that the love of my life always comes first"
She opened her mouth to comment on this but he beat her to it.
"That would be you" he added touching the tip of her nose with his own.
She smiled her he leaned down to give her a gentle kiss.
"Well that was a nice clam before the storm" she said gazing up at him lovingly "Now lets go pass an inspection"
