ATTENTION! HUGE UPDATE!

Most of you should know that I've been including links to songs on youtube and snapchat screens in some of the chapters of my story.

Since it's always been difficult to include links on I've decided to make a tumblr blog for this story. There I can easily post links and insert them in the chapters.

So if you want to be able to go on these links and see what songs or snaps I use you can just go to vivunas dot tumblr dot com !

Of course I'll still be posting all new chapters here on too :)

Alright, enough talking. Here's the new chapter :D

Period after Period went by and all this time Winry was hoping Ed would cross her way and ask her out. But the more time went by, the more she started to think that it was ridicious of her to even expect this from him. She wasn't his girlfriend and she didn't know for sure that he was interested in her. She didn't know him for long, but she knew him well, and he knew her too. They've had some time spent together already, meaning he clearly should have decided if he liked her yet. She really was in doubt about Edward Elric liking her in that way.

And even if he did like her in that way, the last time they hang out together she didn't take the chance to kiss him when she had one. Maybe he didn't take it so well as she had thought. She turned him down, even if she really didn't want to. There was nothing she could do about it now. She was sure he was not going to make any more moves on her anymore, and it was her own fault.

God, I'm so stupid, she thought, going to her locker and putting some books into it.

Ed was rubbing his hands and tipping his foot against the floor nervously. When he started breathing heavily Al finally turned away from his locker shutting it and facing Edward.

"Alright, what is up with you today?" he asked him annoyed.

"Nothing, why you asking?" Ed answered trying to sound casually. He wasn't even looking at Alphonse, instead he was looking straight past him. Al turned around to see what Edward was stairing at. A girl with long blonde hair hair caught his eye. Al analysed her while she was putting books out of her bag in her locker. She was wearing a black jeans that was wripped at her knees, a loose white shirt and a red flannel shirt tied around her hips. Al smirked.

"Winry." he just said, turning to Ed again.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Ed said. Al could tell he had a defending sound in his voice but he could also notice him blushing a little.

"Ask her already, brother." he said.

"I can't." Ed said quickly, letting all of his walls of denial fall down. He admitted it.

"I can't ask her." he repeated.

"What?" Al asked confused. "Why not?"

"I don't know.." Ed actually sounded annoyed of himself. Al raised an eyebrow.

"Are you joking right now?..What's wrong with you?"

"I'm.. to nervous."

"Are you serious?" Al laughed. Ed had never really been nervous when it came to speaking to girls. Okay, Ed has never really been interested in having a relationship what so ever. But even around Winry, who he was clearly interested in, he has never really been nervous. So why now?

"I can't help it! I don't know what's wrong with me. I've never been nervous when it comes to something this stupid like asking someone out!" he said desperatly.

Al sighed. "It actually makes sense. She did turn you down last time, remember? And since you're in love with her.."

A metaphorical glass began to shatter inside Ed's head.

"I'm not..-!" Al just cut him of by looking at him with one eyebrow raised. He was practically saying "There is no sense in denying it anymore."

Ed sighed. "Alright, fuck it. Maybe I am." he admitted. Al ginned.

"Then go ask her!"

"But what if she turns me down again?!"

"I thought you knew she was just too nervous to kiss you?!"

"Man I don't even remember it that good anymore! What if I'm wrong and she actually really just didn't want to?"

Al sighed. How could his brother change his mind about this so quickly. But he had to admitt, Edward was really stupid when it came to understanding girls. It wouldn't surprise him if he really did misinterpret this situation with Winry.

"I bet she think's I'm rushing things too much. I mean, who the fuck tries to kiss someone on their first date?!" Ed was rubbing his forehead in embarrassment.

"God, I'm so stupid.."

Al finally noticed that the bell had already rang and most of the students had already went. He turned around to see that Winry was still by her locker.

"Ed, I have to go." he said, putting his hand on his brothers shoulder.

"Just ask her. You'll never know why she didn't kiss you and if she likes you if you don't ask her. I think that's even worse then getting turned down a second time."

Ed raised an eyebrow. "Well, thank's for the motivation." he said sarcastically before his younger brother left. Ed's sight was now directed on Winry. She was about to close her locker, and nobody was left in the hall.

Perfect, he thought. His heart started beating harder with every step he took in her direction. Suddenly.. he stoped. He watched some guy coming up to Winry. She turned around to him and gave him a confused look at first. The guy said something, making her blush. Ed immediatly felt a sting in his chest. The guy was still talking to her, rubbing the back of his head nervously. Suddenly Winry nodded her head and smiled. Ed wasn't stupid, Winry was getting asked out right now.

Ed turned around and was about to leave. He felt terrible and really didn't want to look at this scenario anymore. Also he kind of felt like he was spying on her, watching her talk with some guy. But before he could go, he had to be sure. Was she really getting asked out right now? She didn't even know this guy? Maybe she isn't even going to say yes to him. Ed turned around to her once again, only seeing that she was now hugging him and giving him a kiss on the cheek.

Are you kidding me?, he said quietly, making sure noone heard him. Then he left.

Winry turned around after she felt someone tipping on her back to get her attention. A boy with short blonde hair and green eyes was standing in front of her.

"Um.. Hey." He just said. She looked at him a little confused.

"Eh, I'm Alex. I guess you've never really noticed me, but we have chemistry together. I just wanted to tell you that lately I've kind of started to admire you a little from distance." he said, rubbing his head a little nervously and sporting a charming smile on his face.

Winry started to blush.

"R-really?" she asked in disbelief.

"Yeah.. I actually think you look really beautiful, so..-"

Winry was so surprised about this sentence that she had to look down at her body and outfit. B-Beautiful..?,she thought.

"I um.. wanted to ask you if you would like to go out with me?" His facial expression turned, as if he was expecting a bomb to explode any minute. "..to the school dance, to be exact." he added.

Winry was speechless for a few seconds.

"I.." she started. "I.. I'm sorry." she said. The boy looked at her, his expression starting to calm. He knew what that meant.

"I can't." she said apologizing.

"Oh.." he said nodding. "I understand.." he said. "I guess you have a boyfriend?" he asked her.

"No, um.." she started. How should she explain this?

"Someone asked you already?"

"No.."

"So you just don't want to go with me." he said hurt.

"No no no!" she said. He looked confused. She sighed.

"I'm waiting for someone to ask me, to be honest.." she said. That sounds so pathetic, she thought.

"I see.." he said. Then he smiled. "Good luck, I hope he asks you."

Winry smiled and nodded. He was about to turn away.

"Wait." she said and hugged him. His eyes widened in surprise. Then she kissed him on the cheek, making him blush.

"I'm sure you'll find someone else to go to the dance." she said after she pulled away and smiled. He nodded. "Yeah.., thanks." he said. Then he turned away and left.

Winry turned around to her locker again. Putting the last book out of her locker, she closed it and also got going to her next class.

Why do I always have to be late on my damn classes?, she asked herself.

The school day ended without Edward asking Winry out. She had seen him a couple of times after that, but he really seemed absent when they were talking with their friends the whole day. Sometimes she even had the feeling he was avoiding or ignoring her on purpose. She knew that something was up with him.

Laying on her bed and listening to music was all she was doing the whole afternoon. [-click here.] After puzzeling her head over Edward for hours she decided to text him. It didn't take her long to get that Ed was ignoring her messages.
