Wrath sat on a hill
a bit away from Rockbell Automail. Ed had packed the boy on the train the
morning after she had lunch with Roy. Since the homunculus had expressed
interest in visiting Resembool. He closed his eyes and felt the gentle breeze
caress his skin. “Nice zephyr isn’t it?” The brunette jerked while turning -and
opening- his lavender eyes looking into an orb of jade; the other was hidden by
dark hair. The elder’s wide brimmed travelers hat -a long string of beads
jingled while he did- was removed. The homunculus could see white strands of
-with another short strand of beads- among the black hair that touched the dark
tan forehead. The darker male sat next to the youth; hat now in his lap.
“Are you taking me
back to the gate now?” Jade green glanced over and fiddled with his leather -adorned
with silver and lapis lazuli; not to mention his frock coat MIA- bracers.
“No, you still have
some time to say your goodbyes.” The darker skinned male closed his visible
eye. “It’s nice out here, makes you feel like you’re able to see everything
from this point.” Leisurely long fingers reached into this vest pocket and
opened his watch briefly.
“Who are you?” The
elder male flicked his low braid -a deep red hair wrap twined within the braid-
over his shoulder.
“You may call me
Veril if you wish.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Roy stopped by the
flower shop before going to Ed’s, but for nothing overly fancy. There was a
strange woman minding the shop. “Welcome sir. Anything I can do for you?” He
thought the woman looked… vaguely familiar; and noted the faint drawl. Her dark
hair was done up -and slicked back- into a bun, onyx eyes shined in delight.
“I was looking for
some flowers that a tomboy girl might like.” The woman smiled sweetly.
“I’m sure we can
find something.” A slim hand made a slight gesture before leaving the counter.
“I haven’t ever
seen you before.” A secretive smile appeared as she handled some orchids.
“It seems a bit obvious, I just started today and I’m new to Central.” Roy felt
that he had seen her face somewhere before. The woman only continued to pick
out some flowers. When she was done she handed him a small bouquet. She also
handed him a small basket of strawberries. “I’d give her those too. I got them
fresh this morning. I have a feeling that your girl likes strawberries.”
“Thank you for your
help.”
“You’re welcome sir.” As soon as the man left a rather sly -one that had
crossed Mustang’s face more than once- smirk.
”Do svidaniya(1) Roy and have
a good day.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
When Ed opened her
door that morning -although it was near noon- she wasn’t expecting Roy at her
door with flowers and berries. Roy wasn’t expecting Ed to be wearing just a
white shirt and a robe. “Ah…. Guten
Morgen Roy.” Pink graced her cheeks as she let him in and his lips touched
her cheek. Neither of them expected a white blur that went past their feet.
“What the hell?”
Two sets of mewling came from the chair where Ophelia had been napping.
“I’ll check on her
later, I better get those flowers into a vase.”
“You’re not
worried?”
“No she can take care of herself.” She flittered into the kitchen with Roy
behind her. Her flesh hand reached for a medium sized vase and filled it with
water; while she wasn’t looking the brunette plucked an orchid from the bundle.
Gently metal digits took the array of flora and carefully placed them in. “Danke for the flowers.”
“You’re welcome.
These are also for you.” The elder held up the basket and she positively
beamed.
“Danke, danke! I love strawberries!
Especially dipped in chocolate.” That got Mustang’s inner imaginative pervert
going, he had to bite back a groan of arousal about licking chocolate off her
skin.
“We can do that
after I take you to lunch if you like.” Midnight blues could see the happy
glimmer in her gold eyes. She dashed off to get dressed. His cheeks flushed as
he saw her bare legs under the robe… his sharp eyes even catching the slight
sight of her panties. He kept the flower hidden until the blonde came back,
musing and amused at how cute she was acting.
Edward came back a
few moments later wearing tight denim, and white woman’s blouse with slightly
puffy sleeves. Her ever present white gloves on along with calf high black
boots. She looked towards the chair, Ophelia was now joined by a white cat with
a cream colored tail and ears; it also had long black tuffs at the end of its
ears just like Ophelia. She picked up the feline who was slightly larger than
its black companion. “Well it looks like you’ve found your Hamlet, Ophelia.”
Said animal mewled at her. Roy had a look o his face that Ed had to answer. “A
male cat, now maybe she won’t be so lonely when I have to leave her at home.”
“How can you tell?”
“He’s slightly larger than her and has balls Roy.” Carefully she turned the cat
around for the man to see.
“Why Hamlet?” Ed
grinned and set the cat back down. She got Ophelia’s leash while grabbing a few
things to make another collar and leash.
“I’ll show you why
when we get back; it’ll be easier to read when we’re not eating.” Slender
fingers put the cloth around Hamlet’s neck, and attached a leash to each of
them.
“You’re bringing
both of them?”
“Why not? I’m sure they’re not going to bother us too much.” Both loops were
taken into her right hand. “Let’s go. Where I want you to take me isn’t far and
it’s a nice walk.” Before taking her hand, he placed the orchid behind her ear.
Although the blond blushed, she seemed slightly riled. “What’s with you and
putting flowers there?” He twined their fingers together.
“Because you look
even more beautiful with one.” Her cheeks got even brighter.
“Bastard.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As they sat the
brunette noticed Ed seemed more relaxed then when they were walking. Ophelia
took Ed’s and the now dubbed Hamlet pawed at Roy’s leg. Reluctantly he allowed
the male feline into his lap. The man was expecting the tiny bite of claws into
his skin, but it didn’t come. The white fur-ball simply settled into the warm
body. “You come here often?”
“I do. A good friend of mine and I usually see each other here nearly everyday,
provided there isn’t something more important to do.”
“Will I be meeting this friend?” She heard the slight protective tone and
raised a brow.
“No, she is busy
today. Why should you be jealous of a woman? I’m not attracted to her… or any
women for that matter.” Roy was flustered by the question and knew she was
right.
“Sorry… It’s just
that now you’re my…” He rubbed the tips of his fingers nervously. “Girlfriend I
don’t intend to let anyone steal you away.” Ed could feel the minor heat pool
between her legs and cheeks at the word girlfriend and the tone in his voice.
“I don’t plan to be ‘stolen’ away from you ever.” She blurted, and feeling like
an idiot for doing so. But Roy gave her a relieved and happy smile. They made
small talk as they ordered and waited for their meal. Then Roy just had to ask
if anything was wrong because she seemed a little off. Ed knew that it wasn’t
something discussed with mixed company… but she trusted Roy. “My… monthly
visitor started Tuesday.” Soft fingers gently traced around her knuckle;
looking up she saw a slight smirk.
“Glad you aren’t
more moody than you normally are, Eddie.”
“I can still kick your ass, bastard.” She knew he was teasing her… as annoying
as it was. He patted her hand.
“I’m sure you could
Edward.” He took a sip of his drink. As Ed took a bite –and fed a little meat
to Ophelia-; gold eyes looked at his features.
“You mentioned to
Al that you were quarter Xingese… do you look more like your mom or dad?” Roy
gave a heartbreaking smile.
“I think I’m a
mixture of both my parents, but I seem to have more of my mother’s features.”
Ed squinted her eyes a tad in thought as she took another bite.
“How come-” He cut her off.
“They died soon after I entered the military academy.” She loosely snaked their
fingers together, trying to comfort him a little; she knew how he felt since Ed
still missed her own parents. It seemed to work since his thumb started to rub
against her hand. “I still have my grandmother Min though and a few aunts and
uncles on my father side.”
“Most likely you have a few relatives in Xing too.” It was then the two felines started growling
and aspitten. While Roy wondered what was wrong; Ed groaned knowing exactly
what the cats were yowling about.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lin felt envy in
his veins and settling in the pit of his stomach. She was smiling at another
-though she didn’t ever give Lin a smile- man other than him. She was talking
to and touching him. He just couldn’t
understand why she’d go for someone so much older than herself… at least to him
it seemed that this man was a lot older than her. Partly right; Roy was at
least 13 years older than Ed. Lin had a strong urge to tear Roy to pieces. He
didn’t show it though, no since it wouldn’t do him any good. He calmly -Oh god, now there’s two of them!- up to
them. “Hello, Ed.” All he got was a not too happy sigh.
“Lin.” Midnight
blue orbs glared –while wishing he had brought his ignition gloves- daggers at
the younger man. There were two more pairs of eyes the glowered at him; a
mismatch set of gold and aqua and the other a cobalt blue. They were still
growling and started crouching on their respective laps ready to smite him. Before
an all out brawl happened, a strong thumb and index finger pulled at Lin’s ear.
“Are you causing
trouble Lin?” Black pearl eyes widen. Lan-Fan
didn’t… He looked to the side. She
did. A young woman with onyx eyes; hair in buns and braids with a tiny…
panda on her shoulder. Before he could answer the woman sharply tugged his ear.
“Sorry to disturb you and I apologize on behalf of my brother.” She bowed. “I’m
Mei Chang and this is my friend Xiao-Mei. I hope to see you both again soon.
Let’s go Lin.” She then dragged him off by the ear and Ed exhaled in relief. Roy
on the other hand was as stiff as a board. Mei
Chang… one of the…
“Well Ed… it looks
like one of the princes of Xing has been after you.”
“THAT mooch… a
PRINCE?!” Ed spoke in near disbelief. “That explains his attitude.” She looked
towards Roy again. “Are you still going to roast him? Or does him still being a
prince s-”
“He’ll be charcoal
if he ever touches you again.” Ed had to smile at that, while Ophelia and
Hamlet quieted and settled back down.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The brunette
settled onto Ed’s couch after their exciting lunch, the two felines curled up
on either side of his hips. Ed came back with the flowers he brought earlier
and a book. She had noticed that one of them she hadn’t ever seen before it…
looked like embracing lovers that were colored black and white. The blossoms
reminded her of Chinese plum blossoms… but those only grew on trees. She placed
them on the table. “What’s w-”
“This is the book I
mentioned earlier.” Ophelia got up and walked over to her mommy, mewling at
her. Gold eyes fondly watched the black smoke animal. “I suppose a chimera male
is perfect for a chimera female.” Roy’s eyes widen and looked straight at the
white and cream cat.
“They’re chimera?”
“Most likely… but I don’t have any proof just a gut feeling.” She placed the
book on the table. “Anything I can get you Roy?” God she felt like she was
already married to him.
“Anything is fine.”
Hamlet nuzzled the man’s leg. “How do you figure they are Chimera, Edward?” The
blonde answered from the kitchen.
“Well for one, the
both don’t look like your average cats. Two they certainly don’t quite act like
them; they were ready to rip Lin’s balls off; cats usually prefer to scamper
off than fight unless backed into a corner. Ophelia has already scratched the
hell out of him and has yet to do it to another person without any provocation
or me starting the fight.” That made Ed remember about the ‘bruise’… now her
automail fingers twitched. Looks like Roy is about to get that bruise she
promised to give him.
She brought back a
small tray of strawberries and blueberry Pierogi(2) along with
sweetened tea. After placing it on the table and as fast as a striking snake;
Ed pinched the side of his neck hard. Roy immediately tensed and held back any
sounds of pain. When she let go of his skin a wily smirk was plastered on her
face… however her boyfriend wasn’t so amused. “What the hell Edward?” His hand
went up to rub the area she pinched.
“You gave me a
bruise, now I’ve given you one.”
“You didn’t…” Her
aureate eyes rolled as she settled into his lap.
“I don’t give a
flying fuck about the bruise, it’s about the fact I got teased about it from
Al. Now you’re going to get ribbed about yours.” The elder only put an arm
around her waist. Ed reached for her book, while picking up a strawberry and
popped it into her mouth. Both cats cuddled up to Roy’s -and to each other-
hip; as Ed began to read Hamlet, ‘Prince of Denmark’ aloud.
The brunette was
mesmerized by the sound of Ed’s voice and how the words rolled off –with a
definite rhythm- her tongue; he could listen to it for hours. He practically
hummed on the inside as Ed continued; only pausing for drinking until the clock
struck and chimed 5. The golden head looked up stopping in the middle of the
sentence; her stomach grumbled. Dark blues looked down while Ed blushed. “Looks
like its time for supper.” She marked the spot with paper and closed the book.
“Is there anything you’d like?” The brunette thought about it for a moment.
“You know anything Xingese?” A wry smile appeared.
“No, but I know
some Chinese recipes and that’s close enough. I’ll go get started.” Standing
she went back into -cats in tow- the kitchen. Roy meanwhile made his way over
to the piano that he heard Ed play when he came to the house in a tiff. Sitting
down he started -slightly rusty- to pluck a simple tune. “You know how to
play?” Halting he turned his head towards the kitchen doorway; of course Ed
wasn’t there since she had started cooking.
“Not really, I had
some lessons as a kid but they didn’t ever really stick… this is the only thing
I remember how to play. I believe that you do play, don’t you?” He heard some
sizzling from the kitchen.
“Ja I play… if you want I could play
for later, after supper.” The elder grinned.
“I’d like that Edward.”
After delighting
Roy with her stir fried meal –made from some leftovers- she sat at her piano.
Ed had decided on a piece that Roselle had liked from Debussy’s ‘suite bergamasque’ called clair de lune. Dark blue eyes closed as
he sat next to her and enjoyed the music… he remembered it since she had hummed
it in his kitchen once. With a rather bright smile he applauded her; Ed had the
faint audacity to give a sheepish grin. “You play beautifully Edward.” He
tangled their fingers together. “Your teacher must have been a good pianist.”
“Ja Roselle was a wonderful teacher and
pianist. I wasn’t’ the only one she taught though. She always had time for the
children from the village.” Ed chuckled. “Of course I’d entertain them before
she started her lessons.” This seemed to enchant Roy for all the right reasons;
he leaned over and kissed her.
“So you don’t mind
children?” She shook her head.
“I don’t have a problem with kids… unless they’re brats.” The brunette had to
laugh at that; he pulled her close and embraced her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
“So you’re going
back… home?” The small homunculus nodded.
“Gluttony has already been taken back before he could cause a lot of damage to
Central.” Alphonse shook his head, not quite understanding.
“But why? You’re not causing any problems.” Lavender eyes seemed to smile just
a little. He had -to some extent- told Al of his encounter. The man… though not
telling Al that he met him some hours ago.
“I’m going because I’m not meant to be here. I have to go back to mom.” A
sly grin. “So do be surprised when I suddenly disappear. Also don’t worry the
one who sees the spirits of the dead and the dying will be with me.”
1) Russian and I
believe it means ‘goodbye’
2) Pierogi are
dumplings that can be boiled, baked or fried. I’m sure that (depending on where
you come from) you’ve made them or seen them stores. I’m using the Polish
variety but they are made in many different countries. In Poland they can be
made with fruit such as blueberries or strawberries in the middle or with meat,
mushrooms, etc. Pierogi is plural; pieróg is singular.
Sorry for the wait If

for a chapter so I waited another week so I could finish it. Thanks to everyone
who waited and who have added this to their fave and alert list. ^^ I’ve given
a few clues to the man in black, even his name is in a way a hint. You might
even figure out my many inspirations that created his appearance. That you’re
gonna have to figure out on your own. I’m so evil to poor Lin aren’t I? *gives
raspberry* Of course I don’t really care if I’m mean to him or not.
