The
blonde walked down the sidewalk to the usual place; Ophelia also as usual by
her side on a leash. Ed -again- felt that she was being watched by what or who
she didn�t know. Looking out of the corner of her eye she could see her cat�s
ears swerving around to pick up any sound. As Edward got closer to the caf� her
golden eyes saw a man with Phoenix; she thought it rather odd. Gray eyes looked
over, smiling. �Here she is. Hello Ed.�

�Guten Tag, Phoenix, who�s your
friend?� Scarlet lips curved upward as Ed took a seat, and Ophelia taking a
seat in her lap. The red head�s firm and slender hand patted the larger one.

�This
is the eldest of my younger siblings.� Gilded eyes took in more of the man next
to her friend. He wore tinted sunglasses �she noticed that they were under a
table parasol- he had very little pigment in his skin and had genuine white
hair. He�s an albino. Ed thought. He
nudged the glasses higher up on the bridge of his nose.

�My name is Akihiko. It is a pleasure to meet you Edward.� The blonde blinked
at the name; recognizing it as Japanese.

�Is
your mom Xingese or something?�

�If
she is, it would be very� diluted. Also� He paused for brief second. �If you
don�t wish to call me by my first name, you may call me �Dante�.� The golden
blonde felt a slight chill crawl up her back, it was the name reaction to when
she first heard the poets name; -it reminded her too much of that crazy bitch-
but she had somewhat gotten over it. She laughed despite the chill; Phoenix had
a good chuckle too.

�Aki just transferred here to Central; I�m ecstatic because I�ll be able to see
him a lot more.� Ed was just about to ask what his rank was when Ophelia
started growling noisily. �

�May
I join you?� came a forth voice from beside Ed. The three turned to look at the
company; the cat�s ears pulled back against her head still snarling. A young
man stood there, with hair as black as pitch and squinty eyes. Amber eyes
narrowed; over six years she had gained an acute �sixth sense� about people.
The first two words that popped into her head about him was �fucking mooch�. Being
annoyed at the prospect of a mooch around she didn�t hear her two friends
introduce themselves, but her ears perked up when sable haired one spoke; while
bowing something Ed most undoubtedly recognized. �I am Lin Yao, a pleasure to
meet you.� Then all eyes turned to Edward. Great
a Xingese mooch.

�Ed;
and if you want to sit you�ll pay for your own damn food. Got that Lin?� She uttered his name with a bit of
disgust and stressed it to get her point across. That smile -that Ed now found
quite annoying- was still plastered on his face. Her body twitched; warning her
there was another person watching them. Focusing back to the issue at hand she
noticed that now Lin�s eyes were no longer squinty, but open. Ed couldn�t help
but noticed that those slanted black pearl eyes were taking everything of her
in. Ophelia�s growling morphed into hissing intensely, the fur on her back
standing up.�

�What
are you fuckin� staring at?� She took pride in making him jolt; it was obvious
he hadn�t heard anyone with such a foul mouth.

�Nothing
Miss�Ed.�

That
raised her brow. Not very many men -excluding Roy and any man that already knew
because they had been told- figured that she was actually a female. Maybe it�s some Xingese thing. I wonder� if
Roy has a slight trace of it. It is
certainly probable. Ed then grinned like a cheshire cat when she saw the
Xingese�s eyes dart down to the animal in her lap - in a crouching position; who
seemed about ready to claw him a new one or at least his face off- and gulped
hard enough to make his adams-apple bob slightly. Ed�s two companions watched
with interest, it was almost like a battle of wills between these two. �I
suppose I better go, since it seems I�ve apparently worn out my welcome.� His hand
reached out took Ed�s and gently kissed it -Edward wide eyed and flabbergasted
by the action- while dark eyes looked into Ed�s. �Until we meet again.�
Edward�s eye twitched as the Xingese man left. Fucking� that mooches� hubris and gall is on par with Roy�s. I wonder
if that kind of shit is hereditary. Ophelia finally calmed down; settled
back down in Ed�s lap though her tail still flitted around still aggravated. Glancing
up while setting a soothing hand on Ophelia�s spine; saw a figure on top of a
neighboring building. Knew someone was
watching.

�Ed
weren�t you a little� rude?� Phoenix didn�t mind since Ed was rude to everyone
to some extent; but it disturbed Akihiko a little, hence why he asked. Ed
snorted softly.

�After
a while depending on their life, some people get a sixth sense about others;
and the feeling I got from him was �mooch� in fucking big and bold letters. And
don�t you fucking mention �woman�s intuition� I�ve had this since I was a man�
though me being a female now might have� enhanced it.� The Tracey siblings had
to laugh at Ed�s assessment of Lin Yao� and the slight pink to her cheeks as
she admitted that last part. Ed briefly glanced down at the usually very friendly
cat. That was the first time she as ever
acted that way towards anyone� almost like a rabid dog. Sure Ophelia had
clawed and bitten people before but that was only after Ed started a fight; she
had not ever been on the verge -without provocation- of whipping out her claws
on someone�s face. Since Resembool Ed knew that Ophelia was no ordinary feline;
but now she began to wonder if she was like this not because of any natural
breeding but of something else� alchemic. Is
Ophelia some normal cat-looking Chimera? �A deep mewl brought her out of her mental
musings and Ophelia head-butted and nuzzled Ed�s chin. Phoenix and Aki smiled
at the affectionate cat as did Ed.

�Having
your usual Ed?� The blonde nodded as she stroked the smoke cat�s fur and said
feline purred.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

After
her meal, Ed had decided to go visit Hughes. So there she was walking over to
the cemetery with a bouquet of purple Hyacinths. The blonde cradled the
delicate bundle in her left arm. Even Ophelia seemed to know where they were
going and seemed a little sullen. On her way in, she was greeted by Mrs. Hughes
and Elicia. �Hello Gracia, Elicia.� The elder woman smiled at her.

�Good
afternoon Edward.� Green eyes glanced around for a moment. �Where is Alphonse?�

�He
went back to Resembool yesterday morning, since I�m comfortable now. I should
be alright since I still have some funds left over from my stint with the
military. Also I took over Al�s freelancing.� Elicia had grappled onto Ed�s
legs while she was talking and the young woman patted the girl�s head.

�Sister?�
Gold eyes looked down.

�Hm?�

�Could
you teach me how to play the piano?� A delighted smile and a bit of an amused
titter in her throat; �since this almost mirrored how she had asked Roselle to
teach her- Ed bent down and nodded.

�I�d
be delighted to teach you, Elicia.�

The
young girl squealed with joy, hugging Ed with all her might and repeated �thank
you� over and over. Gracia saw the tiny warm smile pull at the blonde�s lips.
It wasn�t very often that a sweet look crossed Edward�s features. �You�re
welcome.� She looked up at the girl�s mother. �Call me later with a day and
time. My Sundays are taken but the other days are free and I�ll let you know if
I have to go out because of a job or to visit Al.� Gracia nodded gratefully.

�Alright, thank you Edward. Come along Elicia it�s time to go home.� After
quick goodbyes �and checking if the flowers were intact- Ed went back to her
objective. She knelt down and placed the flowers along side the ones his wife
and daughter brought. Standing there just after talking to said two, annoyingly
and somewhat amusingly reminded her of her birthday. Ed wondered if Hughes knew
for sure - Ed hadn�t exactly given her birthday when she had taken the exam-
that her birthday actually fell on February 29^th; while Elicia�s fell
on the 28^th. Sure on a non-leap year the 28^th was her
birthday; and they year the young child was born it had been indeed a leap
year� just a day shy of sharing the same birthday as Ed. When Hughes had taken
them over to his home to celebrate her birthday; she didn�t brother to correct
the man that he was a day early just played along.

�Heh,
the jokes on you Hughes; but if you did know and were just amusing me� I hope
you took that tidbit of information to your grave. I�d so get shit for it from
Mustang. Hell Havoc would be having a fucking hoot about it.� A quick glace up
and for a brief second Ed thought she saw friendly and fatherly eyes on her. Hughes?! Amber eyes widen that fleeting
vision reminded her of the hand earlier that morning. She could have sworn she
heard. �I knew, but I didn�t ever tell
anyone Ed.�

Figures Hughes
wouldn�t ever tell anyone. Without even realizing it tears trickled down her cheeks.
�Thanks Hughes.�

�What
are you thanking him for Edward?� Surprised gold flickered over to the brunette
-Riza behind him; they two had met on the way to the graveyard- after a moment
a tender expression made its way onto her features.

�Lots
of things Mustang.� The man was about to open his mouth.

�Don�t tease her Roy.� Ed grinned widely at the sherry eyed woman, noticing
that Black Hayate was with her.

�Don�t
worry Riza. I can put this Schweinehund in his
place later.� The shorter blonde had gotten use to calling her that, since Riza
was quite adamant about it; 3 weeks before when Ed visited the office.

Both
-the shorter blonde had noticed- were wearing civilian clothes. Ophelia had
noticed too since she was rubbing up against -so unlike an hour or two ago-
both of their legs craving attention. Ed could feel her cheeks starting to burn
�hoping they didn�t notice- at how Mustang�s clothes hugged his muscular torso
and in all the right places. She swallowed a lump in her throat. Holy shit�
Roy is. Ed recalled her dream back in Resembool. That just made her even
hotter and mouth dry. �Edward, are you alright?� She was so out of it, she
hadn�t noticed the man she was interested in had gotten closer. Concern had
colored his voice as he gently settled his hand against her forehead.

�J-ja I�m alright.� Ophelia sitting at
Ed�s feet� not that she noticed. This� is
more than attraction isn�t it? This man has become a walking distraction; I can
barely go ten minutes without having a thought of him.

�You
feel a little warm.� Roy moved his hand down tenderly caressing her right cheek
with his thumb; also wiping away her tears once he felt the warm wetness. Ed
faintly shivered.

�I�m
fine.� She pushed away his hand. �I�ll see you Sunday, Mustang.� Before Ed
dragged her cat off, she gave one last nuzzle to the man�s legs, and even
nuzzled Black Hayate. If Ed hadn�t been in such a hurry, she would have been
more convinced that her cat was a chimera of some sort; since the cat was
getting along with two dogs she knew of, even rubbing up against one without so
much as a bark or bite. Still making a hasty retreat she again thought she
heard in Hughes� voice -and rather amused at that- �I think you like Roy, Ed.�

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ed
hadn�t slept a wink since she had gotten home, oh she had tried but sleep
wouldn�t come; since Roy Mustang still the ever walking distraction had kept
her up all night. Even reading hadn�t kept the thoughts of him at bay. Rubbing
her eyes with her palm, she questioned Why
Roy Mustang? She could still feel the kind fretful stroke to her cheek;
just thinking about it made her shiver anew.
Damn Hughes! I almost wish he hadn�t told me that. �She was aggravated and confused; Ed tried to
figure out when exactly she had developed such affection. All she knew was that
had noticed them after she had gotten home; but knew that it somehow must have
developed before even then. Feelings like that and at such intensity don�t
usually develop overnight� a crush perhaps but not this. Ed supposed that she
hadn�t realized it because she was a he; and subconsciously pushed it away
because there was no way in hell for such a man to be attracted to a� a short
tempered little brat who pissed him off when and where ever he could; not to
mention an under aged boy. ��

Even though Ed was no longer under aged, nor
a young man, she still couldn�t fathom Roy being attracted to her like that. She was now dreading this upcoming
Sunday but knew she could not back out; she had given her word. Ed then heard a
knock at her door, with a sigh she got up. Snatching up the blue and
hand-painted yellow patterned robe; Ed slipped it on and buttoned up a few on
her way to the entrance. The golden blonde opened the door�. there wasn�t a
soul. An eye twitch and meow at her feet later, she looked down and saw a
bundle of flowers. Tentatively she picked it up and with a quick glance there
was no card or anything to identify who had sent or left these. Gold iris� now
focused on the flora. Red� carnations,
dark pink Azaleas and�Ivy? Is someone trying to make a statement? The red
and pink flowers did indeed have ivy gently peeking behind the blooms; -also
around the stems of the plants- Ed�s cheeks redden. She knew that if Mustang
-he was a known womanizer- had left them; he would have left a card or at least
delivered them himself; not left the dainty package on the doorstep. In the
back of Ed�s mind she couldn�t help but hope that just maybe they were from Roy. But in the forefront in
her brain; it explicitly asked �Who the FUCK would give her flowers?� �

Thank
you, all who have faved this story, put it on their alerts, etc. oh and Thanks
to MakeroomfortheTuna for giving me the idea of putting Lin in here. Muwhahahaha
now you all know. Poor Lin (or Ling depending)�NOT. *clears her throat* if you
guys are wondering why I went with Lin instead of Ling� all I can say is I went
with what Arakawa-san originally named him (at least that�s what I tell on
Wikipedia). I�m sure all of you can guess who the figure was watching them.
Also about Phoenix�s brother� I like the names Akihiko and Dante (and this has
no reference to the female Dante in
FMA1) so I decided to use those two names for his first and middle name. I hope
nobody is bothered by Ed�s birthday I mean Feb. is still winter as Arakawa-san
said Ed�s birthday was in winter; and I thought it would be rather humorous if
Ed�s birthday was on a day that only comes once every 4 years.
Kudos
to anyone who may have guessed that it was Lin(Ling)

��

Oh
if you guys want a specific couple (excluding RoyxEd and AlxWinry those stay.
Could be anything original FMA character to one of my OC, or FMA character to
another FMA character for example HavocxHawkeye.) Please let me know, and I�ll
take consider it. If you have any questions, suggestions, anything you'd like
to see in this story, or just anything in general e-mail me at
lumina_the_mutant (At) yahoo (dot) com, or review any will
do. Please R&R, until next time folks.
