Roy Mustang: We have no choice al

Alphones Elric: *smiles and groans as he stands up and starts walking with a slight limp to back to the Mustang house*

Astraia: *kisses back, slowly crawling over him*

Roy Mustang: it seems I am not the same man I was 13 years ago

Astraia: *smiles* don't worry...I think I can make that part of you come back.

Roy Mustang: *grab Aia and pushes her to his chest* remember when I would come home from a mission and when I came back hurt which was all the time we would lay here in bed with you on my chest?

Astraia: *kisses him again* I remember...was the only way you would know where I was

Astraia: *smiles* Think I can get one more round out of you now?

Roy Mustang: *looks at her and smiles* sure

Akari: *in her room with Al* what happened? Who was it this time?

Alphones Elric: the same every time ari humiculas

Akari: *Leans into him* Thank you for helping Dad...he is so stubborn

Alphones Elric: yea well it is a good thing I step in at eastern when I did or your dad might have come back in a body bag

Akari: He probably told you not to fight...that I would be pissed if you go hurt...yada yada

Alphones Elric: well yea he did but, I wasn't goanna let him die there I remember all the time I went there with him and ed they both always told me to stay out of the fighting and in the end result your dad came back terrible injured. Did he ever tell you that he was goanna become blind after those missions all those years ago cause of a fight that happened?

Akari: I remember that he was...He somehow managed to take me to the park and back but it was Ed that played with me there.

Alphones Elric: yes he was half blind no matter how he wants to admit it he will always be half blind for the rest of his life and nothing can change that

Akari: *hugs him* Thank you...and I'm glad the injuries aren't that bad...

Alphones Elric: You're welcome *hugs ari back*

Akari: *smiles* should we get some sleep? It's been a long day

Alphones Elric: yea we should

Akari: *lays back, pulling him with her and curls into him falling asleep*

Alphones Elric: *hold her and falls asleep*
