Chapter 3

“You’ve received mail from Elric,” she said, placing the letter in front of him on top of the papers. “I suggest you read this now, sir.”

Nodding, he picked the letter up and began to open the envelope. He heard the door close just as he removed the letter from the envelope. His eyes grew big as he began to read what Ed had written to him.

“No,” he whispered to himself, staring at the paper. It was indeed a letter from Ed but it wasn’t how he would normally word everything when he addressed Mustang.

General Mustang,

I can’t stand seeing you with that woman. I don’t know how to explain it but seeing you with her makes me want to rip my heart out. When I am around you, I can’t control it. My heart breaks every time I see you or her. That woman is the one who has taken you away from me, yet I am unable to do anything. I’ve always loved you, Roy, even if I don’t show it anymore. If it was my choice I’d be there with you right now but I can’t. if I am there then that woman will try to do that again. My body is weak now because of her. I don’t know what she did but I’m not as fast anymore. I need help. I need you.

Goodbye, Roy. I can’t stand looking at you anymore when she’s there.

Ed.

Tears fell down from Mustang’s cheeks as he read the letter again a second time. What had Aria done? He thought to himself. Why?

“I miss you so much, Ed,” he said, placing his head against the top of the desk. “You don’t know how much pain I went through when I was told that you died. Please come back.”

Riza peeked into the office and saw Mustang with his head down on the desktop. Sighing, she entered the office and placed her hand on the back of his head, trying to comfort him the best she could.

“GENERAL!!!” Mustang’s head snapped up, looking at the door, wide-eyed. The door flew open, revealing Al standing out of breath, leaning on the doorframe. “You have to help me.”

“What’s wrong?”

Riza stared at Al’s condition. What had he been doing? His hair is a complete mess.

“Ed’s gone,” he replied, walking up to the desk to place his hands upon. “When I went to check on him this morning, he was gone. We’ve looked everywhere for him.”

“Sir, what do you wish to do?” Riza asked, grinning down at Mustang.

“Stay calm, Al, I know where Ed is,” he said before he stood up from his chair and wiped his eyes. “I’ll go get him.”

“General, the hospital is on the phone,” Havoc said, entering the office after he had answered the phone for them. “They say that your wife has gone into labor.”

Mustang’s eyes grew large. What am I going to do? Ed’s missing and now Aria is in labor.

“Wha-what do you mean the father’s already there?” Havoc asked, panicking. “Isn’t Mustang--?”

“Havoc?” Riza asked, seeing him stop.

Mustang stared at Havoc. What did this mean?

Al looked at each one, not sure what was entirely going on.

Mustang walked around from behind his desk and took the phone. The others watched as the general just listened to the man on the other side then hung up.

“I’m going to look for Ed,” he said, leaving.

Riza and Al followed after him, leaving Havoc in charge of the office while they were out. With the three of them looking they knew they would be able to find Ed in no time. However with only Mustang having a good idea of where Ed could be the other two were at a loss. Riza searched the nearby buildings while Al looking in alleyways and abandoned buildings. Mustang paid little attention to his surroundings as he made his was down the streets of Central to a small hut outside the city limits. Staring up at the hut he began to climb the small hill that lead up to it.

Opening the door he found Ed sitting inside staring at a picture. Ed was so focused on the picture that he didn’t hear the door open until Mustang cleared his throat.

Turning around quickly, trying to hide the picture. Ed stared at Mustang in shock. “What? What are you doing here?”

“Your brother told me you were missing, so I came to find you,” he replied, kneeling down in front of Ed, far enough away to keep the boy calm. “I wanted to see you, Ed.”

Ed’s head fell in front of him. Silence stretched between the two until Ed held the picture out for Mustang to see. Hesitantly, Mustang reached out and took the offered frame, watching Ed’s face before looking down at picture in his hands. His eyes began to grow big at first then they became teary eyed when he continued to look at a picture that someone had taken of him and Ed before he had left.

“I kept that on me all the time,” he whispered, hugging his knees to his chest. “I thought that if I kept it with me I would be able to feel you and vise versa, but I guess it didn’t work.”

“Ed, I would be very happy to have you left me hold you again,” Mustang whispered, placing the picture in front of the smaller alchemist. “I don’t know what made me go and do something so stupid.”

Quietly, Ed watched Mustang’s face, the way it was contorted when he held back his emotions. He felt guilty for making him feel this way but what Mustang had done to him was far worse in his own opinion. As if it was its own mind, his body moved over to where Mustang sat and hugged him for the first time since he had returned. He could feel Mustang wrap his own arms around Ed’s thin waist.

“You haven’t been eating, Fullmetal,” Mustang said, jokingly. “I’ve missed you so much.”

Ed hugged him tighter. “What about Aria?”

He felt Mustang’s laugh vibrate his chest. “She never loved me,” he said, slightly sad for the fact. “Falman is with her now. She loves him more than I, enough to have his child while still married to me.”

Leaning back, Ed looked into Mustang’s eyes and smiled. “You have me now and forever, General bastard,” Ed said, before placing a quick kiss on the general’s lips, surprising the older man. “Please don’t let me be so stupid again.”

Mustang’s face turned red from all of the tears that had run down his cheeks. He absently rubbed Ed’s back as they there. In his chest he could feel Ed’s chest rising and falling slower than usual.

“Hold me like you did the first time,” Ed whispered to him before they moved so that Mustang was leaning against the wall. Ed lay against him, placing his left hand on his chest.

“Do you remember what happened that night?” Mustang asked, rubbing Ed’s back.

“Every second of it,” Ed replied, his voice quieter than before.

*~*~*~*~*~*~* Three + years ago *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

“ED! Get in here now!” Mustang yelled, slamming his hands on his desktop. He was angry because Ed was late in handing in his report. Usually the kid did it early just don’t he didn’t have to waste all of the time to do an extensive one, but now he just hadn’t shown up all day.

Ed strolled into Mustang’s off, quite red in the face.

Mustang didn’t notice because he was far to angry with the smaller alchemist. “Why didn’t you come here and report earlier?”

“I had something important to do,” was his reply as he made his way around the desk to stand in front of Mustang. “This is for you, Mustang.”

Mustang took the box, surprised by the sudden gift. Opening the box, he found a small gold chain with a small figure of a Mustang hanging from it. He stared at the figure, unable to say anything.

“You don’t have to say anything, I just remembered that I had gotten that for you for your birthday awhile ago,” Ed explained, shoving his hands in his pockets. “I couldn’t give it to you then because you were drunk.”

At that, Mustang blushed and looked up at Ed. “Thank you, Ed, it’s very nice.”

“Mustang…”

“Yes, Fullmetal?”

“Could you close your eyes for a second?”

Mustang did what he was asked of, unsure of what the kid was getting at. He heard the rustle of fabric then he felt a feather light touch of someone’s lips against his. He took a deep breath before finally returning the kiss with all his heart.

Mustang pulled Ed back into the room farther and turned Ed so his back faced the desk. Slowly, with no hesitation from Ed, the colonel pushed Ed down on the desk.

Ed’s hands drifted up Mustang’s back to twist then in his dark hair. He was nervous, he had to admit that, but what he was doing now was something he had dreamt of for a long time. It was true that if they were to be caught, both could be in huge trouble with the military hierarchy but neither cared at that moment. Ed pushed further into Mustang’s kiss, trying to tell him just how happy he was.

“Ed..” Mustang said, breaking the kiss. “What was that for? Not that I am complaining.”

Ed blushed and turned away. “I like you.”

Mustang grinned then leaned down to assault Ed’s neck, earning a slight moan from the smaller man. Slowly, Mustang ran his hands down Ed’s sides to removes their clothing. It wasn’t long before they were naked, clothing and papers left forgotten on the floor around the desk. Mustang stared down at Ed, the smaller of the two blushed at his stares but didn’t try to get away. For the first time, Mustang felt a strange sensation deep within his heart, like the fluttering of butterflies in one’s stomach.

Again, Mustang descended upon Ed, this time he ran his hands over Ed’s chest. He slowly kissed his way down his neck to his chest, where he gently played with Ed’s nipple, feeling him shake beneath him. Mustang grinned at the reaction he got from him. He liked this side of Ed much more than the whiney brat he usually was.

“Mustang--”

Stopping, he looked up at Ed’s face, there was slight tint to his cheeks.

“I love you, Ed,” Mustang said, before continuing.

Between his gasps for air, Ed said, “I love you too.”
