Hours later, I returned to the command center from the hospital. The nurse told me to treat the stitch when I wake up, and before I go to bed. So on Wednesday, they will come to the headquarters, and clip the strings of my head. Anyway, Edward, Alphonse, and I are walking in the halls of the headquarters. I had to talk to them for a quick moment because I'm going to bed soon.

Edward: It's great that you recovered so quickly, Serenity.

Me: Yeah I know. This cut is a major screw up on my body, but it'll go away. So, what are you guys going to give me?

Alphonse: Give you? What do you mean?

Me: My eighteenth birthday. It's coming up this Saturday.

Alphonse: Oh your birthday!

Me: It's hard to believe that I'm almost an adult. Life just flashes before your eyes you know. Well, anyway, I'm going to shower, and hit the sack.

I leave the Elric brothers, and pass a military officer looking at me. And I didn't mind it at all.

Fast Forward

After a nice warm shower, I went to my room, and changed into my black night dress. I sat on my bed, and looked at the empty doghouse. Dex is not here because he is hanging out with Black Hayate for tonight.

Me: It feels so different without him in my room.

I was about to tuck in until there was a knock on my door.

Me: Shiiiiit.

I got up, and trudge tiredly towards the door. I open the door, and Envy, in the military officer disguise, enters my room. I close the door slowly, and ask…

Me: Are you stalking me?

Envy: No. It's just another visit.*transform back to known look*

Me: Well, you caught me before I went to sleep. What is that you want to talk about?

Envy: About your birthday. I don't know you have one coming up.

Me: Hm. If you don't know, now you know. And how did you know?

Envy: I overheard your conversation with the Elric brothers. So, you'll be turning eighteen huh?

Me: Yeah…

Envy: So, if you're turning eighteen, why the hell do you have a teddy bear on your bed? *picks up the bear*

Me: Uhhhhhh…

Envy transforms into me, and begins to mock me by saying…

Envy: I'm Serenity, and I have a teddy bear on my bed.

Me: Very funny…

Envy: I'm Serenity, and sleep with a bear at night since it pleasures me all the time.

Me: Okay, Envy, you can stop now.

Envy: I'm Serenity, and I say I'm turning eighteen, but I'm really turning three since I have a bear on my bed.

Me:*growls* Envy…

Envy: I'm Serenity, and I keep some childish toy that I call my boyfriend.

He took it real too far with these insults, so I yell out…

Me: Give me the damn bear!*charges to him*

With my Kuma in his left hand, he raises it up, and I try my best to pull his arm down. This results pretty much of a rough-housing thing, until I ended getting my bear back…not noticing the position I was in. Envy's form was back to normal; I forgot to mention, and I was on top of Envy. In my mind, I'm thinking "What the fuck" right now. To shake the strange moment off, I shout…

Me: I win!

Envy: No, you don't.

Envy grabs my arm that I have my bear in, and I threw it by the door. Envy pushes me off, and tried to stand up while running. I got up, grab his shoulders, and move him out of the way. I got my Kuma, and hug it tightly as if I were a four year old again. I look at Envy, who gave me that look I know—an evil smirk with the evil eyes. I run towards my bed, and felt Envy's arm hit my stomach. I did land on my bed, but Envy is grabbing me, and is on top of my body (the back side of the body). I feel like I'm under pressure; I can't breathe.

Me: Envy, I can't…breathe…

Envy: Sorry.

Envy finally get from off my back, and releases me. I took a deep breath, and fell off my bed (I didn't notice that I was at the edge). After minutes fooling around like stupid people, I got under the covers, and Envy get a chair, then sits by my bed.

Me: I don't know how that started, but…*chuckles*

My room gets colder since it is pretty cold outside, and I'm freezing my ass off. I have no heater in my room, and the blankets don't help me stay warm at all. I start to shiver, and Envy notices.

Envy: Are you okay?

Me: No. I'm c-c-cold-d-d…

Envy: Don't you humans have these things that change the temperature of the room?

Me: You mean the thermostat? No…

For a moment, Envy stares at me, and then touches my arm.

Envy: You're almost stone cold. I can't leave you like this.

Envy motions me to move over, so I did. He gets on the bed then wraps his semi-muscularly arms around me. I hold one of his arms, and he's pretty warm. The shivering diminishes, and began to go to sleep. While being held in Envy's arms, I kind of thought I felt a bit...safer.
