Dark spaces
Roy Mustang yawned, opening his eyes slightly. It was still dark, the shadows dancing on the walls as he rolled over and reached out towards the other side of the bed. He frowned when the outstretched hand met nothing. He sat up, rubbing his eyes as he did so. She had been there just a few hours ago. Worry clouded his mind as he stared around the room. Nothing. She was gone. He jumped out of the bed quickly; his eyes still scanning the room for a figure that he knew wasn't there. But where was she? He opened the door to of the room and swiftly made his way into the kitchen area, wincing slightly as the cold air hit his bare skin. He searched the room in vain for her. Still nothing. Suddenly it hit him. He padded back across the floor boards, past the bathroom to the last door way of his apartment. This wasn't a room really, it was far too small to be one, a bed could barely fit in it. He had been using it to store all of the things that he had no place for, miscellaneous objects, old diaries and an assortment of alchemy texts. The room was stacked full of these things, simply disregarded haphazardly, leaving just about enough room for one person to carefully search through. Roy pushed the door open carefully, and stepped into the room, allowing his eyes to become accustom to the darkness. His gaze soon fell on a figure in the corner. He sighed and carefully picked his way across the clutter. There, curled up in a tight ball was his Riza. He should have known where she would be. Ever since she had returned from Ishabal she had been haunted by the nightmares, just as he was, just as he was almost certain everyone was. But she refused to burden him with her pain, knowing how much he wished to forget what he had done. So instead, when the nightmares hit she retreated into dark spaces, fleeing the nightmares, hiding from her pain. He reached out towards her and pulled her into his arms holding her tight.
When she was afraid, Riza Hawkeye would run to her small, dark spaces.
And Roy Mustang would run after to bring her back into the light.
