Chapter 7 – Rumours!! True or False?
Edward woke up to the sun shining brightly in his face, he turned over and covered his head with the blankets that were practically suffocating him.
"Rise and shine O'Chibi-san" an overly happy voice burst into the room, an overly happy smile plastered on his face as well.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT THAT EVEN MY SHADOW BARELY SHOWS ON THE GROUND" Edward chucked the blankets off himself and glaring daggers at the person dare interrupt his precious sleep.
"Good O'chibi-san is lively this beautiful morning" Envy marched through the doorway.
Edward growled at him and threw himself back under the covers, closing his eyes but the peace was shot lasted as this deranged person yanked at the covers. He tightened his grip.
"Aww come on Edo" Envy whined as he continued to pry the blankets off Edward "It's a new day and I was gonna tell you to"
"Fine" He growled, releasing his grip.
Envy through the blankets to the side and in one swift move he was sitting beside Edward. He looked at Edward, his hair was a mess and his face still expressed tiredness. Obliviously Edward was never up at this time in the morning. Edward wore a pair of red silk boxers, his well toned chest in plain day for Envy to stare at. Envy admitted that Edward hadn't changed a bit in his personality but physical growth, man had he changed in a year.
Edward rubbed his eyes and stretched out the stiff muscles.
Envy moved a bit closer and raised his hand to Edward's forehead and placed his other hand on his own forehead "and your fever has come down dramatically"
Edward watched as Envy got up again and left but not for very long. He was back before Edward had even moved but he was carrying a pair of clothes.
"Here put these on, they should fit" Envy handed him the clothes, a huge grin spread across his face.
Edward took the clothes, and it looked like Envy wasn't going to leave him. He slipped on a pair of black pants over his boxes, which made Envy whine a little.
The pants he noticed were a little too tight for his liking and they were leather. Next he slipped over his head a tight white singlet top, he didn't like that either because it showed off his shiny grey silver metal arm for all to see.
"Don't you have any thing else for me to wear?"
"Nop" Envy shook his head "that's all we got that can fit you" he snicked.
Edward sighed, looks like he was stuck with these clothes. He attempted to flatten his messy hair, he was able to tame it somewhat.
Once Edward had finished, Envy grabbed his arm and pulled him from his room and out of the village going deeper into the forest.
"Where are you taking me?" Edward asked as he stepped over a large tree root sticking up from the ground.
"You'll see" Envy smirked, Edward wondered if Envy ever stopped smirking although he had heard that Envy was anything but normal.
Suddenly Envy stopped, but Edward didn't, he rammed right into Envy's back, "Did you have to stop so suddenly" Edward hissed rubbing his forehead. He peered around Envy, only to see a dead end. Several huge rocks stood in front and around them, covered in moss, weeds and vines.
Envy released Edward's hand and walked towards the rocks right in front of him, he stopped at a huge tangled mess of vines and weeds. Envy reached out and shifted them to the side, like opening a curtain.
Behind a walk way was revealed, tall and wide enough for them both to walk side by side through.
Envy took a few steps backwards to Edward, once again Envy grabbed his wrist and ran through the hole.
On the other side revealed a place that could be called paradise. A fair size waterfall rained loudly to one side of them into a pool below it, the grass was long and a few trees lined the edges. The waterfall was made from rocks, a meters in length.
Edward was speechless, never had he seen a place so beautiful and peaceful.
"Not many of the people here know about this place" Envy walked over to one of the few trees and sat down, leaning his back against the trunk. "I found this place soon after I came to this island"
Edward followed him and sat beside him.
Envy turned to look into his golden eyes and smirked "so what rumours have spread about me?"
"Do you realize how many there are?" Edward asked him back.
"Oh I can guess" his smirk turned into a wicked grin.
Edward sighed this was going to take all day.
"The first one I heard was that you discovered something in the military or some private information about the military that no one was supposed to know" Edward stated.
"Yes" Envy's face turned into a frown "I discovered the truth behind the military, what the military really was"
"What?" Edward asked.
His evil grin returned to his face "The military would want you dead as well if you knew………………… well actually your probably on a wanted list because your associating with me"
Edward looked at him, confused.
"What's the next?" Envy's grin widened.
"That you attacked an innocent crew, and practically blew their ship to smithereens with no survivors"
"Yes that ship did blow up but all the survivors are here on this island, there was a bomb on it. It blew a full minute after me and my crew got to the ship, many were injured with massive burns but they all healed fine, and that ship was carrying many priceless things that we needed here on this island"
"You take advantage of both male and females"
Envy licked his lips "Any person in their right mind would but only if their willing" he laughed.
A blush rose to Edward's cheeks and an uncontrollable anger boiled as Envy said those words but he had no idea why "so you're Bi"
"And proud of it" Envy smirked, he noticed a little anger in Edward's voice. Somewhere locked in his mind, Edward hadn't completely forgotten him.
"What?" Edward's face turned sour, at the smirk on Envy's face widen.
"Nothing" he sang and jumped up.
"What's that smirk for?" annoyed, he followed.
Envy laughed out loud and skipped through the long grass, he was extremely happy. Some of his feelings for me are still there, Envy's mind screamed in happiness. I will make him remember, he thought suddenly coming to an abrupt stop.
Edward had been chasing him, so when Envy stopped Edward ran right into him making them both fall.
Envy fell face first into the long grass and Edward fell on top of him.
How could Edward possibly believe what Envy said was true when so many of his actions said otherwise. Even his little brother Alphonse, the only person he knew to look at everyone's good side, didn't see anything good in Envy. That's what his mind was saying but then Edward's heart rebutted with how Envy had acted the past few days he had been here. If Envy was anything like what everyone was saying he was, Edward wouldn't be here.
The question was could he trust anyone on this island.
