(Winry's P.O.V)
Winry stared at Al and Mei as they told her the whole story. Winry had sort of spaced out but nodded at random times showing that she understood what they were saying.
"Sigh~, Ed was so weak! He couldn't even carry Winry!" sighed Mei
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WEAK! WHO WAS THE ONE WHO CARRIED HER OUTSIDE YOU BEAN SIZED HUMAN!" yelled Ed going red in the face.
"Bean sized… "Whispered Mei, "you better take back what you said or I'm going to punch your face till it looks like a swollen waffle!" cried Mei as scary as she could manage.
"YOU DARE DO THAT AND I'LL USE ALCHE…" cried Ed but abruptly stopped.
Silence engulfed the room as everyone stared at Ed. While Mei and Al gave him really weird glances as Ed tried to find the right word.
"ALCH… ALCH" stuttered Ed, "… Alche…Alcohol. Yes, Alcohol. I'll throw Alcohol in your face!" declared Ed.
"I'll talk to you later about this," said Mei quietly and giving her most evil stare Winry had ever seen. "Sorry Winry that you had to witness that, Ed is usually like that."
"It was… amusing," replied Winry.
"Stay for dinner Winry, we've called in KFC- Big Feast for dinner," said Al.
"Alright then" replied Winry.
(Ed's P.O.V)
'Sigh~, that was so close' thought Ed, 'If Winry knew what I was really going to say, she would think I was loony.'
"Edward ELRIC! My study, NOW!" spat Mei, " Al, you go speak to Winry while I deal with this… this… nuisance " said Mei sweetly.
"Ed! You have to be careful about you say. If you're going to do that, I will not permit you to speak for the rest of the night," cried Mei as soon as she locked the door.
"Sigh~, Winry didn't even notice!" exclaimed Ed.
"Do I have to sew your lips together? You know clearly that we can't tell anyone about us using… alchemy," said Mei whispering the last word.
"Calm your farm. I swear, it won't happen again!"
"You better mean what you say!"
"Yes… (whispers the next word) woman"
"What did you say"
"Nothing"
"That's what I thought… You better go down stairs, I hear the KFC car coming"
(Winry's P.O.V)
"…And that's how you can get quick service when ordering through the phone," said Al as he stood up and walked to the door.
Ed came down stairs as I looked up.
"Sorry, Mei was just being annoying, lecturing me like always. (whispers next bit in Winry's ear) She's such a grump because she always thinks she's older than me when she's not," says Ed.
Winry giggles as Ed talks about Mei being such a nuisance.
"Dinner time!" cries Al.
Dinnertime goes by in a blur for Winry. Winry explains how she just came to this town because of her dad's business and her mum's helping her dad so they don't have much time for her.
After dinner she thanked Mei, Al and Ed for looking after her and she should be getting home.
"Its getting late, I better get going," said Winry.
"All right then, bye. Make sure you come by next time," said Mei and Al.
"I'll take you, its not good for you to go home by yourself," blurted Ed.
"Alright, if you insist and I will," said Winry
The dark night was pitch black except for the occasional car passing by. Ed and Winry walked in silence as they left the house.
"Sorry 'bout that, Mei and Al are always like this," explained Ed.
"No, it's alright. I haven't had so much fun in ages," admitted Winry.
"Oh, I thought you would find it strange…" said Ed trailing of.
"No, why should I. It was one of my best nights,"
"Really?" asked Ed running his hand through his hair.
"Course! And thanks for um… looking after me and saving me" mumbled Winry as her cheeks flushed. She was glad it was night and that Ed couldn't see it.
"It's what I do,"
Time seemed to stop as Ed looked into Winry's eyes. She stared at his golden eyes that just seemed to shine in the dark night and they both slowly leaned in.
