Stirring awake Ed glanced at her bedmate,
smiling. As soon as they had gotten back to Resembool, it didn’t take Roy long
to convince Edward to move in with him. Quietly Ed slipped out of bed, and
putting on her robe while she walked to Vin’s room; checking in on him. She
smiled at the fact he was still sleeping peacefully. The kid was already pretty
mobile on his own but Ed was going to make sure he was flexible too. She would
play games with the boy so he could be; one time Roy saw them playing when he
came home on day and only shook his head, chuckling. She always got her
exercise in too; at least once a week she’d go to HQ to spar with Aki. But she
was doing cartwheels, summersaults, and using a punching bag to keep from
getting rusty. Ed went down the stairs
to get breakfast ready. Every since they started living together the blonde
always got up a bit before Roy so she get their meal almost done by the time he
got up and came down. Dried flowers greeted her as she got everything started;
she had caught Winry’s bouquet and was teased a bit about her getting married
next. Ed was still rather surprised that he had put her bed into the master
bedroom and his old one into one of the bedrooms, upstairs. When she had asked
about it he didn’t answer her and switched the subject. She could only guess
his reasons for wanting her to move in with him; the first on the list was
because of the nightmares they both
tended to have. They slept more serenely when they were in each others arms. Hamlet
and Ophelia swarmed around her feet as she got her ingredients; after setting
those down; she fed them the tuna they were craving. Since she had moved in
they had been rather… active in bed. They just couldn’t help themselves; they
were insatiable for each other. Possibly another
reason why he ask- no practically begged me to move in with him. The blonde
thought as she started to prepare the morning meal. She had told Roy pretty
much everything but of course there were a few details she omitted; since they
were things he didn’t need to know about yet or know about ever. It was mostly
about Vinzent’s… unorthodox parentage; not to mention who and what ‘he’ is.
Everything else like what happened on the other side she shared with him… and
told that alchemy was the cause of her change… but not why and who. I’ll tell him eventually when I figure out
how to put it to a person who has never
seen the gate or the truth.
It wasn’t long before she felt a soft kiss to
the back of her head, and little hands clutching at her robe. “Guten Morgen Liebchen.” She spoke while
turning her head. Roy’s hair was sticking out everywhere and his eyes looked
still a little sleepy; while Vin was wide eyed and bushy tailed.
“Morning, lovely.” Ed sweetly kissed the
others softly lips, still working. The little ones eyes were looking upwards
and watched knowingly… it wasn’t long before he made some noises.
“I guess he’s hungry.” She paused briefly to
kneel down and kiss his forehead.
“Aunt Ed…” It sounded like the boy was
pouting and she only laughed.
“I already have something for him made. Will
you get him ready and give it to him?”
“Of course, breakfast will be ready soon?”
“Ja soon enough.” He kissed her cheek
lovingly, while grabbing Vin’s breakfast. Leaving Ed to cook he went to put the
littlun in his high chair, and set his meal in front of him; so he could feed
himself. The young boy had started feeding himself a little over a month and a
half ago and was doing very well. True to her word it wasn’t long when Roy’s
breakfast was placed before him. He smiled at her when she took her seat; when
he took his first bite he remembered something he forgot to mention to Ed.
“Shoot. I’m sorry Edward I forgot to mention that my grandmother is coming in
today to visit.” Gold eyes looked up from her food and shook her head;
chuckling.
“It’s alright, I’m just glad that you told me
now instead of when you coming through the door with her.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Edward stood as she watched Roy getting ready
to leave for work. Hamlet and Ophelia were gently playing with as well as
watching Vinzent. They were lightly nipping at his little fingers and nuzzling.
“Have a good day Liebchen.” With a
smile his hand settled on the small her back, pulling her to his chest for a
kiss. Ed held back a hiss as her breast pressed up against him. After releasing
her, he told her while leaving.
“You have a good day too, beloved.” As soon
as the door closed, gilded eyes looked down at the mounds still feeling the
twinge of pain. What the hell? She
thought. She hissed again after poking one with her flesh hand. Frowning deeply
she looked over seeing the felines still entertaining the lad. She quickly went
to get dressed and look at her breast. The blonde looked at her darkened
areolas in the mirror as soon as she was half way dressed. She tilted her head
as she thought out loud.
“Have my breast swelled a little?” That doesn’t explain why they are tender
though. She hooked her bra and analyzing everything in her head when she
felt little hands tug on her trouser leg. Looking down joyful dark blue and
jade looked at her; carefully she pulled the rest of her bra over her breast. The
cats had followed and were still nuzzling him and Ed could only smile. But
internally winced over the fact he was still teething, they had gotten things
for him to chew on; but at the reception was the only time he really cried out
that loudly because she was also in pain while he was. The Sephirothic Tree ‘birthmark’
was now clear and in full view for anyone to see if they saw the boy’s upper
half unclothed. She was pretty sure Roy had noticed it but he had no idea of
its meaning. Only someone who had researched or seen the Gate would most likely
make the connection. “Hold on for just a moment Vin.” The lad patiently waited
as his aunt put on her shirt. It was then she was hit with a craving for
Christmas piernik; particularly for the plum jelly between the layers of cake.
Roselle -even though there wasn’t a speck of
Polish in her- made it for the other 3 Christmas’ Ed was there for. Edward knew
there was another name for the cake but Christmas piernik is what she preferred
to call it. Well it’s December… so what
the hell. I’ll make it… I’ll just have to check the pantry to see if I’m
missing any ingredients. Looking at Vin she mentally added about maybe
getting him something too, maybe something to play along with the cats. Gently
scooping him up she went to get him ready to go out. The cats followed behind her,
waiting for Ed to get everything else done so she could get them ready too.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ed was looking at the plum jelly, going over
a few things in her mind. Let’s see about
3 or so months ago I had a very light period… After that she hadn’t taken
any notice if she missed it or not; just took having it in strides. Although
she did remember missing it about 2 months ago… Edward almost dropped the jelly
jar. Vinzent was watching her with a big smile on his face and laughing; he was
thinking the look on hers was very funny. Even the cats were curiously looking
at her. Okay deep breath, take inventory
here. Missed periods… swollen and tender breast, no nausea, thank god, I’m not
tired… She thought about it a bit more. Cravings…and…
Ed’s prosthetic hand rubbed her back. Now
a sore back… well Merry fucking Christmas to me. I think I’m pregnant. A
soft smile curved her lips as her eyes went back to the jars, finally picking
one as she felt little hands trying to reach her back. She patted his head. “It’s
alright Vin, I’ll be okay it’s just a little annoying like a gnat.” The jar
went into her basket with the other ingredients she needed, including the
chocolate. Now that the blonde thought about it… she had been having small
cravings for plums since a little over 2 months ago. Ed held back her laughter.
She wasn’t even showing, not even a little bit since her and Roy would have
noticed… he would have also mentioned it this morning. Looks like I’ll have to go see a doctor after I look at toys... and
keep my activities less strenuous. The blonde went to get the last of the
ingredients she needed for the cake she craved for.
As Ed looked at the toys to choose from, when
she was going to a few to Vin that’s when she heard a familiar voice. “Ed?” Gold
looked over to see someone she hadn’t expected to see. Not even the felines
made noise that Lin was close by. She supposed they didn’t see him as a threat
anymore. I wonder where Lan-Fan is.
“Hello, Lin.” His eyes saw the curious boy by
her legs, trying to look into the bins.
“Yours?” She shook her head, looking at
Vinzent to get his attention to look at what she had in her hands to see what
he seemed to like the best.
“He’s more like my nephew, but we’re not
blood related.” The Xingese prince only tilted his head as he watched her. Near
black and green looked over objects in her hands.
“You have this… glow about you that well…” He
blushed as the blonde’s eyes looked over at him and the little boy got a few
and tried them out with cats. “Makes you more beautiful than usual.” Ed
laughed. He just pointed something out that she had noticed about Gracia when
she was pregnant with Elicia and the village women who were with child. Lin
only watched. She seems happy. “Is…
he treating you well?” Ed abruptly stopped laughing and snapped her head in his
direction; wide eyed. Blinking for a moment, but soon smiling lovingly at the
thought of Roy.
“Very… very happy indeed.” Lin watched that
look appear on her lips. He platonically placed his hand on her shoulder, while
Vin was having a blast as were his feline friends.
“I’m happy for you.” He paused. “Where are
you going next?”
“The doctor…” And maybe some more shopping afterwards depending what they say.
She made a face as she trailed off; she hated doctors and hospitals in general,
not to mention Lin didn’t need to know she might be with child. The Xingese man
didn’t push.
“May I escort you?” Ed raised a brow, the
corner of her lips quirking up.
“Do what you want.” Lin took that as a yes as
Edward looked down and saw that Vinzent was playing with two toys in
particular.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Roy waited at the train station for his
grandmother; the man was rather excited to see her. He hadn’t seen her since
was a young teenager. Mustang had an extra star on his uniform; apparently he
recently got promotion. He smiled widely seen her familiar face getting off the
train. He greeted her in Xingese, as he hugged her. She was exceptionally
shorter than him at four foot ten. Roy was use to it; his mother had been a bit
on the short side at about 5’2”. “How have you been grandmother?”
“Well my dear. I was delighted to her from
you saying that you found a wonderful girl.” Roy proudly smirked which reminded
the elder woman of both his father and grandfather. “Speaking of her, where is
she?”
“At home. Most likely making us a nice
dinner.” The elder Xingese woman smiled and took Roy’s arm and her only
grandchild escorted her to his car.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Roy heard Vinzent giggling loudly as he
walked through the door. “Uncle Roy!” The boy squealed as he got to his feet
and quickly walked over. He knelt down to pick the boy up.
“Hello, Vinzent.” He glanced around. “Where
is your Aunt Ed-” Hamlet and Ophelia had now decided to greet Roy, said man
looked down at the felines. “Hello to you two too.” They meowed then looked at
Min, leaning their heads to the side; but soon proceeded to rub against her
legs.
“Kitch, Aunt Ed kitch.”
“Ah I see. Did the two of you stay inside all
day?” He asked as they walked towards the kitchen, Vin shook his head.
“Out shoppin’” Roy grinned. Two pairs of dark
eyes spied Ed -sleeve’s rolled up- kneeing some dough. Roy walked over and
kissed her cheek; Min noticed the glow that Lin had mentioned earlier.
“Welcome home Roy.”
“Vinzent told me you were out shopping.” Gold
eyes looked at the little boy then the elder man while nodding.
“Had to get a few things.” Yeah toys, chocolate and plums… anything
with plums in it. Ed looked passed him, seeing the other. “Oh right, you
did mention this morning that your grandmother was coming.” She finished
messing with the dough and bowed. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, ma’am. Sorry
that I’m a bit of a mess. I’ve been cooking for most of the day after I got
back home.”
“Please call me Min… but Roy didn’t ever tell
me your name.”
“Edward Elric.” The whitening haired woman raised a brow about a man’s name for
a pretty young lady. Roy does have some
features from her, most likely passed down from his mother. I can see what his
grandpa saw in her… even now she’s still very striking. Midnight blues saw
a fresh and strange looking cake on the counter; he tried to sneak a little but
got his hand swatted. “You’ve been teaching Vinzent a bad habit. He tried to
sneak some of it too… while I was making it. After dinner you’ll get your
piece, the both of you.” Vin pouted, Roy held his own back; Min chuckled. Ed
started to rub the small of her back, that’s when nausea hit her. It wasn’t too
bad at first, but soon it got to be too much for her. Dashing past them she ran
to the bathroom to pray to the porcelain god.
“Grandmother could you watch Vin for a moment
while I check on Edward?” He gently handed the boy to her and followed the
blonde into the bathroom.” Are you alright, Edward?”
“Yeah I’m alright and no I’m not sick.” I
wonder if Min is wearing something that is making me sick to my stomach or is
it just the hormones. “Oh I have something for you Roy.” Now he was
intrigued. After washing her hands she pulled a box out of her pocket and slid towards
him. She then grabbed a toothbrush and paste as he picked it up. Inspecting it
quickly he opened it and was left breathless.
“Are you asking me to marry you Edward?” He
questioned as he started at the ring. It looked like a Chinese dragon, with a
vermillion gem nestled between its claws. Ed petulantly frowned at him as she
brushed. After spitting out the foam and paste she spat out.
“Ja,
I’m purposing, stupid bastard.” Roy had planned to kiss her, but she went to
rinse her mouth before he could. He kissed her once she was done though. “I’ll
take that as a yes.”
“Yes, do you h-” She nodded.
“It’s in my pocket.” Flesh digits fished out
a smaller corresponding ring, but instead of a red jewel and it shaped like a
dragon; it was gold amber jewel wrapped in Fenghuang’s plumage. Longer fingers snatched it and slipped it onto her
left ring finger. Ed in turn took his ring and did the same to him. He kissed
her forehead and held her close; this time the blonde couldn’t hold back the
hiss of pain.
“Edward?”
she waved it off telling him she would tell him later. Once I figure out how to... The couple walked back into the living
room and saw Min playing with Vin; who was having a ball. Ed subconsciously
settled her metal hand on her stomach. It was still there when she went back
into the kitchen to finish making supper.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
“What kind of cake was that Edward?” Amber
eyes looked up from her book. Roy’s grandmother was in a downstairs guest room.
“Specifically it was a honey-spice cake, layered
with plum jelly. It’s a Christmas cake from Poland.” Roy kneeled onto the bed,
kissing her cheek while she went back to reading. Plum? He thought, he recalled seeing his blonde snacking on a fresh
one earlier.
“Do you know when you’d like to get married
to me?” She calmly turned the page.
“Ja, soon.” She glanced over at him.
“I’m not like Winry, so I don’t need or want some extravagant affair with a lot
of people, just family and a few friends… on the twenty-fifth of his month.” The
declaration surprised Roy, not the date but at how soon it was… roughly three
or so weeks away. Now that I think about
it… that’s my mother’s birthday…
“If I may inquire as to why you want it so
soon?” Ed bit her lip deciding; quickly marking her spot before getting up to
get something to show him. Edward admitted to herself that if she could knit,
she would have knitted these things herself. Grabbing a bag she pulled it out
and held it up for him to see. Ed watched as his eyes got wider and wider as
the seconds ticked by.
“A-are those…?”
“Baby booties, yes.” Things now clicked in his mind as he remembered Hughes
braying on about some symptoms that Gracia had when she was with Elicia. The
man was now wobbly at the implications those booties gave rise too. He fell to
his knees in front of her and pressed his ear to her belly; hands settled on
her hips.
“Are y-you p-p…” Roy trailed off he couldn’t
get his mouth to finish the sentence.
“No I got them for Vinzent.” She responded
sarcastically, then proceeded bonked him on the head with them. “Of course I’m pregnant,
idiot. Found that out earlier today myself.” The man nuzzled the soon to be
baby bump, grinning from ear to ear.
“How far long are you?”
“The doc thinks about thirteen to fourteen
weeks.” She felt his hand start gliding back and forth along her stomach; she
could feel the ring through her shirt. “You know the baby isn’t the only reason
I want to get married so soo-” His index finger against her lips made her
pause.
“I know that day was and still is very
important to you.” Taking his finger away he kissed her sweetly, walking
backwards guiding them to bed. Holding Ed close -trying not to hurt her- as she
turned out the light; nuzzling and starting to fall into pleasant dreams. His
hand sliding down to her belly to rub it once and kept it there the whole night.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As usual Ed was up first to get breakfast
ready, but the blonde remembered that she had to make a little extra for Min. She
decided to make oatmeal; she knew Vinzent would love it. When Edward got it
going she quickly went to the lad’s room to see that the boy was already awake
and trying to get out of his crib. Once he noticed her, he called for her.
“Mornin Aunt Ed. Up!” Ed chuckled while walking over, picking him up and
setting him down so he could follow her -while she carefully helped Vin down
the steps- into the kitchen. By now her two cats were up and crying for their
food. The eldest was the next one up and about. Black eyes saw the little dark
haired boy at Ed’s hip watching her then asking what she was making.
“I’m making Oatmeal Vin. Is there any kind of
fruit you want in yours?”
“Banana!” Ed laughed quietly and nodded.
“Do you need any help Edward?” Gilded eyes looked
over at her.
“No Min. I’m doing alright, I’ve gotten use
to it by now and guten Morgen.” Ed
started to cut up the bananas for Vinzent and plums for herself. Lastly Roy
finally was up and about and smiling seeing Vin under Ed’s feet and his
grandmother watching. When he got closer he carefully put his hands on her
belly and tenderly rubbed.
“Good morning beloved.”
“Guten Morgen Liebchen.” Roy kissed her cheek. “And breakfast is almost ready.”
Nodding the brunette male picked up the boy to get him into his high chair.
Ed knew she had to call Al soon, about her
getting married to Roy rather soon -not to mention her having Roy’s baby- but
she’d have to do that after Phoenix came over for lunch. The blonde smiled
thinking about how the office was going to react to them getting married. Both
women watched the cats play with the young child when Ed suddenly asked an odd
question. “Were you a princess before you came to Amestris?” Onyx eyes looked
at her; startled. “I had a friend that was descended from an aristocratic family
and she carried herself the same way you do.”
“That was a long time ago. I was disowned
when I decided I wanted to marry a ‘commoner’, an Amestrian man. He whisked me
away after that and before we could marry he died.” An affectionate smile
graced her elegant features. “You know, my daughter had my eyes but Roy has
his. That’s what drew me in first. Of course my grandson is a lot like him, so
was Noelle. That’s what Charles wanted to name her if she was a girl. I honored
that, but I gave her Hui as a middle name and gave her my family name instead
of his… I don’t think his parents nor did his siblings know they ever had a
granddaughter and niece he spoke of them often but I never had the chance to
meet them.”
Edward smiled at the elder woman’s memories. She must have been a just a teenager when
she had Roy’s mother. “I stayed away when the military buried him, I didn’t
think his family would want me around… although I did watch.” Does that mean his body is here in Central? And
maybe the rest of his living family too. That reminded Edward that Roy had
told her that one of the reasons he had joined the military was because of the
stories Min and told him about his grandfather as a child. She could see the
sadness in his eyes, since he had been told very little about him. As Roy told
Ed; his grandmother didn’t seem to like talking about him since it seemed so
painful… Roy didn’t even know what his last name was.
“So Roy is essentially a prince that Xingese royalty
wouldn’t ever acknowledge.” Min nodded.
“Some of my close family might… but I don’t
know I haven’t ever tried.” Ed looked at the clock, stood and patted her hand.
“Maybe you should, sometimes family have a
change of heart over time. I should know I use to hate my father but after I
started living with him after many years of separation the feelings I thought…
I had lost re-emerged. You should also look into Roy’s grandfather’s family so
they at least know their dead relative had a daughter and she in turn had a son.
I could help if you want me to.” Min could see even though her body was young
Ed’s eyes looked older, seeing things that no one else might have. “And… maybe
you should talk to Roy more about him. He seems sad that he doesn’t know more
about his grandfather.”
“Thank you, maybe I will talk to my family
again... and I’ll talk to Roy about Charles.” She paused briefly.” I can tell
it’s much more than physical beauty that Roy fell in love with, your wit,
experience, and inner beauty is what really made him fall.” Ed blushed and
little and shyly grinned.
“My friend will be here for lunch, please
join us.” Before Min could respond, Vinzent squealed out
“Pwease Nana!” That made the made the elder
woman’s day; Ed still had yet to tell her that she was currently carrying her
great-grandchild.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ed sat next to the phone, ready to pick it up
to call her brother. When she told Phoenix and Min that she was marrying Roy,
the redhead laughed gleefully and asked when it was. Min was rather excited
herself, and both were surprised when Ed said the twenty-fifth it seemed both
were about ready to have heart attacks. Ed laughed -so did Vin while clapping
his little hands; sitting on Ed’s lap- when they both asked to help with at
least some sort of gathering afterwards. She agreed with a smile. When she was
asked what she was going to wear, the smile turned into a smirk and still was. There is no way I’ll be wearing white, I’m
not a virgin. I guess I’ll wear something red… Roselle did mention that was the
color brides wear in Chinese weddings since they consider the color lucky. She
picked up the receiver and dialed Al’s number. After ringing a few times it was
the younger Elric who answered. “Hi Al.”
“Hi sister, how is everything going?”
“Fine… and guess what Al.” there was a pause.
“What sis?”
“I’m getting married
in three weeks… and you’re going to be an uncle in about six months.” Ed howled
in laughter when her baby brother dropped the phone without a word, which made
Roy and Min look at her from the kitchen.
I’m just so evil aren’t I? *grin* thanks to If
everyone who have reviewed, faved and added this story to their alert list. I
hope you guys enjoyed this chapter too. I thought it was kinda of a hoot to
write. Oh what I said about peirnik (it’s kinda like gingerbread) is true; but
there are different variations. The one I described, my neighbor (who is
Polish, and is married to an American) bought this around Christmas last year.
I loved the cake so I thought I would some managed to stick in this story
somehow. *snickers* I found one and thought it quite amusing that Ed would have
cravings for plums. I hope you guys don’t mind the royal connections I made; it’s
just in a way Roy did kinda remind me of Lin so I thought it suited Roy… not
that he knows that.
