Okay I’m really happy that more people are finding my story interesting. Just happy to please others. I only got one response for Al and another guy and it was for the couple and I wanted them too so it was 2 to 0. So Al’s getting a boyfriend! Isn’t everyone just happy? Al needs happy in his life, but who knows with the baby coming? So here is the next chapter, hope everyone enjoys.

Julia sighed, rubbing her gentle hand against Ed’s tense back. After she had mentioned her suspicion of the problem with Ed, his stomach decided it didn’t like the idea and wanted to prove it’s point by making Ed vomit more than he should. She was getting worried about Ed, if he really was going to have a baby she’d have to find out why, who’s the father, and if he wants to keep it?

“Um…Julia, were you kidding when you said Ed was pregnant?” a hesitant voice wondered aloud. Julia sighed again, turning her head to stare at the giant suit of armor. She knew these were just boys, so who would actually do this to a poor kid. Ed wasn’t really mother material, she could tell.

“Alphonse, I don’t kid about something so serious. Ed is pregnant and I have to check him to make sure the baby is okay,” Julia explained as Ed continued retching over the toilet. She sighed again, this was going to be more difficult than she thought it would be. Ed was definitely not ready for a baby.

“Jewels, do you need some help?” Jason asked from the doorway, moving the armor, which had fainted, a bit to the side. He looked down at Ed who finally stopped vomiting and cringed to see the boy pass out. He sighed, not waiting for Julia to say something. He walked into the bathroom easily picking up Ed bridal style. He made sure to not hurt the boy’s stomach. He walked to the guestroom and randomly lowered Ed to the bed. “Do you want me to take off his shirt?” he wondered as he looked at his girlfriend. She nodded and walked off to get some of her tools. Jason gently was able to remove Ed’s jacket and shirt without waking up the boy.

“How is he?” Julia wondered walking into the room with Al behind her, holding a giant bag. Al dumped the bag on the side table in the room, making sure it didn’t open in accident.

“Not so good. He looks pale to me,” Jason answered, putting his hand gently against Ed’s forehead. For such a big, strong guy, he tries so hard to be gentle, Al noticed. Jason seemed to cherish life so much. He wondered why.

“Probably from the vomiting. Oh no! Jason go check if he threw up blood,” Julia panicked as she opened her bag, ignoring the loud sounds of her boyfriend running to the bathroom. It was dangerous if Ed started vomiting his own blood. It strained his heart and made his body weaken from having to feed the baby that same blood. She quickly checked Ed’s pulse and asked Al to go to the basement to grab an IV stand.

“Julia there was blood,” Jason answered walking back into the room after Al had left. Julia sighed, she was worrying over Ed’s health and now the baby. This was bad stress! Why the hell…heck did Roy send this boy to her? If that jerk sent her a pregnant boy on purpose she would never forgive him! She made sure that Ed could still breathe after all that vomiting.

Al walked into the room holding the IV stand and quickly placed it next to the bed. Julia worked quickly sticking the needle into Ed and connected it to the IV stand. In a hurry she took some of Ed’s blood to test it and make sure he was healthy enough to have this baby, and maybe even the reason he had the ability to have babies. She grabbed blankets that Jason had brought and covered Ed with them making sure he was warm. Once she was positive that all he now needed was rest she walked towards the door and paused.

“All he needs now is to sleep. Now get out of the room!” Julia commanded pointing into the hallway. Al and Jason rushed not wanting to get the woman angry. She made sure to keep the door open encase Ed woke up before she predicted. She checked the clock and realized it took her three hours to make sure Ed would be fine and she hadn’t eaten much. She sighed, walking down to the kitchen to make herself something fresh and healthy.

It was late at night, midnight most likely. Ed had still not wakened and Al was worrying terribly. Jason had continually gone to check on the boys and reporting to Julia, who was staying in her room writing a letter. Her cursive was beautiful and graceful, like someone else’s handwriting that no one could remember.

Dear Roy Mustang,

I see you’ve decided to send me some more officers. Not only that but you dare send me young boys! How dare you! I mean it Roy, how dare you! Sending me boys in this condition. If I find out that it is yours, I swear you will feel my wrath. I will not stand for your terrible sense of humor. This isn’t funny. Ed isn’t in good condition and you send him to me like this. You will not stop until will you? I’ll do my best to fix what you’ve sent me but I’m not sure if this is right. Ed might not agree. Have you thought that he might kill it? He might not want it or he might die in the process. If you’re willing to risk that fine! But I am not. So I expect an explanation soon. If not I swear I will tell these boys about the first time you realized you were a boy. Good day to you and I expect a response.

Sincerely,
Julia GRETHERS

Julia jumped a little when she felt warm hands begin to massage her tense shoulders. She had become so angry as she wrote this one little letter. Was it possible to be this angry with someone? She had meant every word of it and tensed at the thought of Ed dying from Roy’s stupidity.

“You’re so tense. Relax, I know this is hard for you but it’s necessary. If Roy sent this boy to put blood on your hands then you have a right to know,” Jason tried to encourage but without intention gave her a grim feeling in her gut. What if Roy didn’t know? What if the baby was Roy’s? Oh god, now she had to know or she’d go crazy.

“I have to find out Jason. No matter what, you know I love you, and only you, right?” Julia said as she got up from her chair and rushed to the door. Jason stayed behind, frowning as he went in search for an envelope to slip the letter in. Life had suddenly gotten complicated.

“Brother, how could this have happened? I mean who’s the father?” Julia slowly walked up to Ed’s door seeing that someone closed it enough to only leave a crack opened. She could hear the brothers whispering but once she heard that question, she decided to let them know she was there.

“Yes, Ed. As your doctor it’s my obligation to know who the father of this child is,” Julia commented with a strict voice. She saw how Ed’s eyes lowered in shame and prayed that it really wasn’t Roy. That Roy wouldn’t be stupid enough to do this to a child.

“It’s Roy Mustang,” Ed answered looking up to see Julia’s reaction. He could see the deep questions in her eyes and decided to answer them before they were answered, “It was done by equivalent exchange. The information to find you and train passes for my body twice,” Ed sighed, hearing Julia’s shocked gasp.

“Roy…Mustang, he wouldn’t do that. Oh god,” Julia trembled in shock until she finally fainted knowing someone would help her eventually. She was having so much trouble accepting this. The child was Roy Mustang’s. Roy would never do this to a kid and yet there was the proof. How could she be such a bad judge of character? Thinking Roy would never do this.

“Julia please wake up,” Jason begged as he lightly shook his girlfriend as he gently held her against his hard chest. She smiled, forgetting everything for the time being. Just liking that feeling of being in Jason’s arms. “Please Julia. Ed’s been throwing up again.”

Julia nodded getting up with a light headache. She was glad to hear that Ed hadn’t thrown up blood this time so after he collapsed all was needed was rest and some peanut butter pickle sandwiches (Ed’s request).

“I have to re-write that letter,” Julia thought aloud in her room as she began to change into her nightgown, her black hair lightly disheveled. She shared a room with Jason and gladly cuddled into his side once she was dressed.

“Actually you’ll have to write a new one. I sent the last one. Hopefully Roy won’t get to angry.”

“I should write it now and send it tomorrow,” Julia stated, giving Jason a good night kiss with a firm command to get some sleep. He agreed and slowly fell asleep as Julia wrote her letter to Mustang this time though it wasn’t so polite.

Dear Roy Mustang,

You asshole! You sick pedophile of a man! You have no right sending me your child! What do expect me to do be the mid-wife for your child and I still have to find out what the problem with Edward is. How could you do this to poor Edward? He is only sixteen that is not a proper age to become a mother! Or are you to stupid to realize that? You better come and fix this because if he will not be allowed to abandon this child. This is your entire fault. I knew you were slightly perverted when it came to women but impregnating a man is wrong and desperate. Now I will agree to mid-wife this child but only, for the soul reason that I agreed to be Ed\'s doctor. You can just go to hell and pray that you don’t go to limbo. Ed is around a week pregnant so you have before eight months to get here or else!

Sincerely,
Julia GRETHERS

Julia folded the note and slipped it into an envelope and quickly scribbled the words TO: ROY MUSTANG so anyone could clearly see who it was for. She went back to bed to get some sleep before she had to wake up, help Ed, then send her note.

***

The morning had gone well enough. Jason insisted that she send her letter as early as possible, so she was rushed out of the house being reassured that Al and Jason could take care of Ed. She slowly walked to the village happy at all the greetings she received. She finally made it to the Mailing Center and quickly got a sheet to fill out that was standard in her village. Once she was done she handed the sheet and letter to the lady behind the desk and began to walk out.

“Um…Julia! You forgot to fill out your maiden name here,” the lady stated pointing at the sheet.

“Is that really necessary?” Julia sighed as she began dragging her feet back to the desk. She didn’t really like filling out that part of paper. If she just filled out Julia Grethers it would be…in a sense, wrong.

“Sorry but it is when you’re sending something this far,” Julia sighed, grabbing the pen and neatly wrote out on the line next to maiden name, Julia Mustang.
