The surprise visit

In central it was raining hard and some of Roy's men were slacking off as usual Breda and Havoc were talking, Falman was doing his paper work like he always did and Fuery sat at his desk playing around with an old radio and Roy was staring out of the window watching the weather.

Moments later at the train station a golden tanned Ed and Riza got off the train "What great weather we get to come back to hey." Ed said looking behind him to Riza "Stop moaning or have you forgotten how bad it quickly turned at Sans Rosa you should be glad it's just simple rain." Riza replied stepping off the train "*sigh* your right I guess I just wish we didn't have to get wet you know." Ed replied "Now all we have to do is make a simple phone call and we can have a car out front to take us to HQ ok." Riza said heading to a phone box.

While Riza was on the phone Ed carried their bags to the entrance awaiting his wife's return with good news he hoped "One will be here in five minutes ok Ed." Riza said with a sarcastic tone in her voice "Good because I don't think I could carry all these bags all the way there you know." Ed said stretching.

Before Ed knew it the car had arrived "Hello Colonel how can I help you?" The driver said looking at the couple "can you take us to HQ please." Riza asked politely "Of course captain Hawkeye right away." He said helping Ed but the bags in the back.

It only took twenty minutes to arrive at the front of central HQ "Thank you very much Corporal" Ed said before he got out the car "Need help with those bags?" The corporal asked "No we can manage from here thank you." Riza replied helping Ed get the bags out.

Ed asked cheekily if he could leave their bags at reception since he didn't want to lug them all the way to Roy's office and back lucky for him they didn't mind at all so he left them there and went to catch up with Riza who had left him to deal with the bags. "Hey why didn't you wait up for me?" Ed said finally catching up to Riza "Simply because I wanted to see how long it would take you, to be honest I'm surprised you convinced them so quickly." Riza said giggling.

They got to Roy's door but waited to go inside but they stopped as they heard voices important voices coming from the other side.

Inside the room on the other hand Roy was speaking to a woman not dressed in a military uniform but in a pair of black trousers, a red shirt and a black leather jacket "So Mustang how much longer you going to make me wait." the woman said in an annoyed tone "I told you already she's no longer part of my team." Roy said scared of the woman how stood right in front of him.

As Ed and Riza listened in Riza started to recognize the voice "there's no way it could be her could it? After all these years she shows up now." Riza thought to herself and then decided to open the door to confirm her suspicions.

Everyone turned to look at the door as Riza opened it everyone was shocked to see her because in a week she had gotten a beautiful tan and she was wearing a beautiful cream summer dress with red roses on it Ed followed behind her also showing off his tan.

"YOU!" Riza shouted pointing at the woman who were only moments ago interrogating Roy "After all this time you show up now? It's been 9 years." Riza said slowly walking up to her everyone was expecting fists to start flying even Ed was worried and then Riza hugs her "My god you sure have changed Lucy." Riza said with a smile on her face

"Your one to talk Rey Rey I just heard you got married and then this fool tells me you're not even on his team any more how could you not tell me hey." Lucy said standing back seeing Ed over Riza's shoulder looking at Ed who had a worried look "what have I told you about calling me that Lucy that was when we were kids ok." Riza said looking annoyed at Lucy for her calling her that "Yeah I know but that's why I do it any how who is this hunk of a man? Is he taken or can i..." "That is my husband you're talking about so no." Riza said interrupting Lucy before she could finish.

Lucy started to look Ed over making him more nervous "So then do you have a name then?" Lucy asked him standing behind Ed and placing her head on his shoulder "Ed." He said wanting nothing more than to move away "hey I already told he is taken so back off alright ginger." Riza said with a small evil smile which made Lucy shoot daggers with her eyes at Riza

"sigh ok then no more old names ok but at least does he have a cute brother like him?" Lucy asked with hope on her eyes "yeah but he's also taken so don't try it ok." Riza said shooting any hope she had "so are we going to do this then Riza or not?" Lucy asked "yeah let's do this then" Riza said and headed for the door followed by Lucy.

Everyone in the office had a look of confusion on them including Ed "So what was that all about?" Havoc asked look at Roy "You got me Havoc I have no idea I'm guessing she's Riza's friend but I've never meet her before." Roy said then turning his attention to Ed "So how you enjoying married like Mr golden man." Roy sniggered "It's great you should try it sometime if you can keep a woman for longer than one night." Ed replied looking smug

"That tan look suits you chief." Havoc said trying to stop the all-out verbal war that he should see about to start "Thanks Havoc it's a paradise down there the only problem is the weather it can change really fast, I mean one minute it can be sunshine then bam rain storms." Ed said sitting on the sofa.

Riza had gotten them both a cup of coffee and sat in a corner of the cafeteria "so how come it took me to come down here to find out not only are you no longer part of mister I'm gods gifts to women but also that your married hey?" Lucy said taking her cup off Riza "What can I say you never stay in fixed place your always on the move and besides its been nine years since we last spoke, I didn't even know you were still alive." Riza said a worried look on her face

"Yeah I know but you know me I'm a free spirit I don't like to stay tired down, more to the point tell me about this Ed and don't skimp on the details ok." Lucy said "Well it started a few years ago he went on holiday but while he was away he got a mission come in for him personally so I got told to bring him back….." Riza sat there for hours retelling the story of how they she became Mrs Edward Elric and by the end of it she had Lucy in tears

"My god why is the world not filled with men like him?" Lucy said wiping the tears from her eyes "and you're sure his brother is taken right?" Lucy said "yes for the last time he's dating their childhood friend" Riza said annoyed that she had to repeat herself

"Ok ok I get the point." Lucy said raising her hands up in defeat "So what else brings you here Lucy it's not just this there is something else right." Riza said giving her the look of I know something's going on "I swear Riza nothing else is going on I'm just here to catch up." Lucy said trying to convince her old friend but that was far from the full truth.
