Roy stared down at the large manila
envelope in his hands and frowned deeply.
He wished that he didn’t have to be the one to deliver this—wished he
could have pawned this unpleasant task off to someone else to save himself from
what could end up being a bitter confrontation concerning more than just
work. But he didn’t have that
luxury. As Ed’s superior officer, it was
his duty to deliver this and to meet with him in person. At least it gave him an excuse to see Ed, and
hopefully they’d be able to work out their differences.
And maybe...
“We’re
here,” Hawkeye said, breaking him out of his thoughts. Roy
looked up just as the car stopped in front of the apartment the two Elric
brothers shared. He glanced over as
Hawkeye began to open her door to get out.
“Lieutenant,”
he said easily, opening his own door and putting a foot out. “I think I’ll talk to Fullmetal alone.”
She
glanced up in the rearview mirror to look at him. Her eyes were full of questions, but instead
of prying into matters that weren’t her business, she simply asked, “Do you want
me to wait out here for you?”
“No, I
think I’ll just walk back after I’m done.
It’s not that far.”
“It’s
almost four in the afternoon, sir. What
time can I expect you back?”
“These
types of meetings sometimes last for an hour or more,” Roy answered evasively. She turned around in her seat and gave him a
bland stare. He returned her displeased
look with a wry smile. “You don’t
believe that I’m coming back to the office, do you?”
Hawkeye
raised one eyebrow. “Permission to speak
freely?” she asked.
“Denied,”
he replied, his grin widening. “I
already know what you’re going to say.”
He climbed out of the car, then leaned down to
look at her through the open door. “You’re
right. There’s a good chance that I
might not return. There’s no point in me
coming back for an hour or less.”
Her face
radiated a mixture of displeasure and exasperation. He knew she believed that he’d planned it
this way to get out of work; but, in truth, it was because he really wasn’t
sure how long he’d be here, nor did he know if he’d be in the right frame of
mind to return to the office today.
“Have a
nice weekend, Lieutenant,” he said nicely, trying to soften her disapproval.
Hawkeye
turned around and started the engine. “You too, sir. I’ll
see you Monday.” Her tone was clipped,
but there was a note of resignation as well. They both knew he worked hard, but they both
also knew he was perfectly willing to cut corners when it suited him.
Shutting
the car door, Roy
waited until Hawkeye was no longer in sight, then turned and started toward the
front door. He felt resigned, but also
motivated by the fact that he had given the matter with Ed a lot of thought. He was prepared, not caught off guard like he
had been in the hospital room the week before.
He was cool and collected, ready to face whatever was thrown at him.
Roy knocked on the door and waited,
wondering what kind of reception he’d receive from Alphonse. Would Ed have told him or would he have
continued to keep it a secret? He knew
that the two had made up, and for that he was glad. Ed deserved a little peace in his life right
now. The door opened and Roy wondered for a moment
if Ed would be the one to answer, but it was Al who opened the door.
A
surprised look crossed Alphonse’s face.
He opened his mouth to speak, but Roy
shook his head and motioned him to come outside. Curious, Al did as he was bidden; and, after
he shut the door, said, “Colonel Mustang...
This is a surprise.” His eye
caught the large envelope Roy
was carrying and frowned. “What can I do
for you?” he asked slowly as he brought his gaze slowly back to Roy’s face.
Roy tapped his fingers on the
envelope, then said, “I need to speak to your brother.” He stopped tapping his fingers, then added, “Alone, if you don’t mind.”
Again
Al’s eyes strayed to the manila envelope and the frown deepened. “Is that what I think it is?”
“What do
you think it is?” Roy
asked evasively.
Al
dropped his head to look at his feet, then idly kicked
at a small pebble near his shoe before looking back up. “Alchemists aren’t quite as useful when
they’re blind, is that it?”
Roy sighed and gave the teen a
regretful look. “It wasn’t my
decision. I believe Ed is capable enough
even without his sight.” He was very
aware of how well Ed could learn to adjust to having no vision.
Alphonse
looked up at him and nodded thoughtfully, then said, “I’ll be honest with you,
Colonel, I’m not too disappointed. I’ve wanted
brother to quit the military for a while.
He’s not happy there. He joined
to meet a goal. He met it. He should have moved on, but he didn’t.”
“I think
you’re right,” Roy
said mildly.
Al’s eyes widened slightly in surprise.
“You do?”
Roy nodded. “Yes, I do.
Ed hasn’t been happy. I don’t
know why he didn’t resign sooner, but at least this way he’ll get a nice
compensation package from the military.”
He paused, then said wryly. “I just hope he’ll let me talk long enough to
tell him about it all.”
Al
glanced behind him at the door, then back at Roy.
“I really don’t think he’ll take it as badly as you seem to think he
will, but I’d be happy to grant your request and leave you alone with him. I was just about to take off to go visit my
girlfriend for the nigh—a while anyway.”
Roy didn’t miss the slip, but he made
no sign that he noticed. What Al did
with his life wasn't his business, and really this worked out well for him. Or, at least, he hoped it would work out well for him... The proposal he had for Ed, well... that
would have to wait until he was sure it would be welcome. And he knew that it might never be.
Turning,
Al opened the door and motioned Roy
to follow. Stepping inside, Roy looked around and was
surprised by how well kept the apartment looked. Had it always been like this, or was Al
keeping it clean so that Ed wouldn’t trip on anything? He wanted to ask, but had enough tact to keep
quiet.
“Brother!”
Al called, then looked at Roy. “He’s
been spending a lot of time in our room—we share one, you know, because it’s
cheaper.” Glancing at the small hallway,
Al called for Ed again. “I’m actually
glad you’re here,” Al said, turning to look at Roy once again. “This is the first time I’ll be leaving him
alone since they released him and... well... I just worry.”
“I told
you, I’ll be fine,” Ed grumbled as he walked slowly down the hallway toward
them. One hand slid easily along the
wall as a guide. A pair of dark
sunglasses sat over his eyes, though Roy
could still see some of the wicked marks from the chemicals on his skin around
his eyes where the glasses didn’t cover and on a few other places. “I may be blind, but I’m not deaf and I’m not
incapacitated. So just go.”
“You have
a visitor, brother,” Al said patiently.
At that,
Ed stopped and scratched idly at his head; slightly displacing the already
messy mass of loose hair. “Oh. I thought maybe it was that girl... what’s
her name again?”
“Claire,”
Al answered, then turned to Roy
and said, “My girlfriend.”
“Yeah, for this week. Don’t worry about
remembering the name, won’t be the same one by next Friday,” Ed said, making it
out of the short hall and now walking a little more cautiously without the
wall.
“Don’t
mind him, he’s just cranky,” Al said casually.
“Though I usually find him to be really pleasant...” A grin stole across his face. “When he’s asleep.”
Ed
stopped, folded his arms, and said blandly, “Go the fuck away. Your enthusiasm to see Cassy—”
“Claire,”
Al corrected.
“Whatever. Your enthusiasm has reached an unbearable
limit. Now go away.”
“He’s just
jealous,” Al said to Roy.
“Come say
that to my face,” Ed snapped, holding up his hands in balled fists and moving
his head from side to side.
Al
laughed lightly and Roy
had the feeling the banter was friendly at the core. It seemed that they really had made
amends. He glanced at Ed, who was now
making an obscene gesture with his hand in their general direction much to the
amusement of his brother.
“Well, anyway,” Al said, turning to Roy. “I think I’ll leave so the two of you can
talk.”
Ed
dropped his hands and asked, “Wait, who’s here?” He seemed to have just realized that he had
no idea who the other person in the room was.
“Colonel
Mustang,” Al said.
Ed’s
mouth opened and he simply stood there, then he gritted his teeth and spat,
“I’m not in the mood for visitors, so why don’t you just fuck off.”
“Brother!”
Al chided in an appalled tone.
“Stay out
of it, Al,” Ed growled.
Al
glanced at Roy
and gave him an apologetic look. Roy shook his head as if
to say that it was fine. Pulling open
the door, Al said, “I’m leaving, brother.”
“Take him
with you!” Ed demanded.
“To Claire’s?” Al asked smartly.
“You know
what I meant!” The sarcasm obviously
wasn’t appreciated. “Get him out of
here! I don’t want to be in the same
room with him!” Al glanced again at Roy, this time with lips pressed in thought, and Roy knew he was weighing
the pros and cons of granting Ed’s request.
“I won’t
be here long,” Roy
said to Al.
“Damned
right,” Ed spat, turning and starting back down the small hall.
“I think
I’m just going to go...” Al broke in, already half out the door.
“Traitor!” Ed yelled. Al opened his
mouth, then closed it and shook his head before leaving and shutting the door
behind him.
“I’m not
leaving until we talk,” Roy
called after Ed.
Ed, now
at the end of the short hallway and near a door snarled, “Fuck you!”
“Is that
an offer?” Roy
shot back, speaking before thinking. Ed
turned his head toward him and made an obscene gesture with one of his hands
before walking into the room and slamming the door behind him.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Throwing
himself on his bed, Ed turned so that he was lying on his back with his face
pointed toward the ceiling, then viciously pulled the sunglasses off his face
and slammed them on the nightstand.
Anger coursed through his veins and accumulated with a tight feeling in
his chest.
Damn
Mustang. Damn Al. Damn everything.
It had
been a week since the accident; and, in that time, Ed had experienced a wide
range of emotions. Sometimes he was so
deeply depressed that he just wanted to sleep the days away; sometimes he was
furious with everyone and everything—the unfairness of his situation causing
him to lash out at the most unexpected times.
Then sometimes he was thoughtful; trying to methodically work out all
the problems there were to being blind and how he was going to deal with them.
Al had
been wonderful—better than Ed could have asked for. His brother had taken time off of work to be
with him. He’d read to him from books
when Ed was lethargic and refused to get up, listened and strategized when Ed
wanted to figure out how he’d live the rest of his life, and refused to take Ed
seriously when he lashed out.
They had
also spent a lot of time talking once Ed returned home. At first it had been about more ‘safe’
subjects such as alchemy and science, but they’d eventually stepped into less traveled
roads. There had been laughter and tears
for their past as they spoke of their childhood, their parents, and their
mistakes. They contemplated their time
looking for the Philosopher’s Stone, and speculated on their future. And of course, they’d talked about more
current happenings—the most explored of those being on the subjects of sex,
secrets, and lies.
Ed found
Al more than willing—eager actually—to talk about his love life, something that
had really put Ed off for a while. When
he thought of his younger brother, he thought of someone who was innocent and unspoiled
by the more vulgar things in life. Not
that part of that wasn’t true—Al had no taste for crudity—but Ed was finally forced
to admit that his younger brother was fully a man now, and he came with the
same base needs that Ed possessed.
Alphonse
was one who enjoyed a less colorful sex life than Ed in some respects, but not
in others. Ed had been shocked to learn
his brother had participated in more than one orgy and had a fetish for
watching other people have sex—though his ‘watching preferences’ tended to run
along the lines of women only.
Ed had
been a little more reticent to talk about his own experiences—feeling a little
abnormal. It was also almost
embarrassing to admit that he’d mostly only been with one person, since Al had
enjoyed a far wider variety of partners.
Little by little, Al had pulled the story of Ed’s affair from him. There had been a choking sound of disbelief
from Al when Ed had admitted to letting some stranger come up behind him, blindfold
him, then fuck him without even fighting back a little.
But overall,
Al had remained mostly quiet during Ed’s stories, only interrupting when he had
a question; though Ed thought he could detect a feeling of surprised interest
at some of the stories he told.
In the
end, he’d told almost everything—every meeting with his secret lover, and even
the night he’d given Russell a blowjob.
At first, it had hurt to even think about those meetings, but he’d found
that talking about them helped in some way.
He even found himself enjoying revisiting some of the more spicy
memories.
What he hadn’t told was his confrontation with
Mustang in the hospital. The wound that
revelation had caused was still too fresh.
If Al knew that it had been Mustang...
Well, Ed wasn’t exactly sure what he’d do. Sometimes he entertained himself with visions
of Al kicking the shit out of Mustang.
At other times, Ed wasn’t sure that he’d want that to happen.
But now,
Ed was wishing he had told his
brother. If he had, then he was sure Al
wouldn’t have let Mustang in. If he’d
been lucky, Al would have kicked Mustang in the balls and let him whimper on
the porch. Ed didn’t want to talk to
Mustang, but he was sure that he would be true to his word and not leave until
they talked; even if that meant him staying all night.
Ed cursed
Al for choosing this night to go have a sleepover with his current flavor of
the week. There was no helping it. If Ed wanted Mustang gone, he’d have to do it
himself.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy glanced at the clock on the wall
and noted that he’d been waiting for almost two hours. It hadn’t been that bad of a wait
though. He’d found that the Elric
brothers owned a fantastic assortment of books and scientific journals, and
he’d been able to find something that interested him fairly quickly. He sighed and returned his attention to the
book he’d been flipping through. Ed
would have to come out eventually...
Eventually ended up being ten minutes.
When he heard the door open, Roy
instantly closed the book and waited expectantly for Ed to appear. Finally, Ed wandered into the living room,
moving slowly with arms slightly outstretched.
Now that Ed was closer and didn’t have the sunglasses on, Roy studied him more
closely. Ed’s eyes were open, but they
were obviously seeing nothing. The
golden irises looked pale and fogged over, and the scars the chemical burns had
left behind still looked tender and painful.
Ed
stopped walking, then sniffed lightly. “You’re still here.” His tone radiated displeasure. “I mean, I can smell you.”
Roy raised an eyebrow and pulled his
jacket to his nose before saying wryly, “I did shower this morning.”
“Don’t be a dumb ass,” Ed snapped. “I can smell your cologne. What did you do? Bathe in it?”
Roy frowned as he smelled his
uniform, then let go of it. He hadn’t
put any more or any less on than he usually did. He’d heard that the other senses sharpened
when one was taken away and wondered if Ed’s body was overcompensating for its
loss.
Ignoring
Ed’s remark, Roy
said, “Sit down, Ed. We need to talk.”
Ed didn’t
reply immediately, but moved over to the couch and said, “About what?”
“I’ll
tell you after you sit down.”
Ed’s head
turned toward Roy’s
voice, then he instantly began to move toward the
other side of the couch. “You’re a bossy
bastard, aren’t you?” Ed muttered, plopping himself down, and folding his arms.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed
wandered over to the couch, then realized he didn’t
know which side of it Mustang was sitting on.
“About what?” he asked, waiting for the reply to gage where Mustang was.
“I’ll
tell you after you sit down,” Mustang said, and Ed instantly moved away from
Mustang’s voice.
“You’re a
bossy bastard, aren’t you?” Ed muttered, sitting down and folding his
arms. “I didn’t sit down because you
told me to; I sat down because I know it’s the quickest path to you leaving,”
Ed said.
“Of
course,” Mustang murmured, but didn’t say anything else.
“Well?”
Ed asked impatiently. “Why are you
here?”
Mustang
cleared his throat, and Ed could hear the sound of paper. “I’ve been given the unfortunate task of
giving you these papers...” There was a
pause, then, “Would you like me to read the cover letter to you?” His tone was a little morose and regretful,
and it dawned on Ed what this could be about.
“Just give
me the gist of it,” Ed said quietly, then waited.
Mustang
didn’t say anything right away, and Ed was about to urge him to go on when he
spoke. “You’re being released—honorably—from
your duties as a state alchemist and as a soldier of the Amestris
military. I have the official discharge
papers signed by the fuhrer, but I do have a few forms that you need to sign.”
“So
that’s it...” Ed said, feeling a little anger and shock over the dismissal—even
though he’d sort of expected this to happen.
He’d put his life on the line and they were just going to throw him
away! Yet, Ed was also surprised at the
feeling of relief he felt. It was like a
heavy burden was being lifted off of his shoulders. He’d hated being in the military, but had
felt compelled to stay anyway.
“This
wasn’t my decision,” Mustang explained, sounding slightly defensive, as if he
felt Ed was accusing him for the discharge.
“But it’s not like you’ll be walking away with nothing.”
“I don’t
want anything from the military,” Ed said tightly.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Stubborn. Ed was so stubborn.
Shaking
his head, Roy
said, “Don’t be ridiculous. You’re
entitled to specific benefits after you’ve been with the military for so
long—especially when you’re an officer and, in your case, a state
alchemist. That accident also happened
while you were on duty. The military is
going to take care of you.” Ed nodded
mutely, not giving any indication as to what he could be thinking.
Roy set the envelope and documents on
the floor, then studied Ed thoughtfully.
Normally, these types of meetings involved a lot of paper reading by the
one being discharged as well as thoroughly informing the soldier of his
rights. But this wasn’t normal
circumstances. Ed wouldn’t be reading
anything today—maybe not ever—and Roy
could see Ed wasn’t much interested in hearing about his benefits at the moment.
“Are you
done?” Ed asked bluntly.
“With the military’s business? Yes,” Roy said, deciding that it
would be better to have Ed sign the papers later after he knew what was in
them.
“Then
leave.”
“No.” Ed sat up a little straighter, his head
facing in Roy’s
direction. He was about to speak, when Roy cut him off. “I want to talk about you and me.”
“You mean
you want to talk about how you lied to me and used me?” Ed flung back at him.
Roy took in a deep breath and let it
out slowly. “I never lied to you, and I
didn’t use you.”
“Bullshit,”
Ed said, his lips pulling down into a deep frown. “I—” he began, but Roy cut him off.
“You
wanted it, so don’t you dare accuse me of using you. If you didn’t want it, then you wouldn’t have
come back time and time again,” Roy
said forcefully, finally giving voice to the thoughts he’d been having all
week. “You never had to come. No one forced you to accept each invitation. You could have stopped coming at anytime, but
you didn’t.”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed’s head
reared back slightly. He felt like he’d
been slapped. It was true that he had
wanted it, but... but...
“You knew
it was me all along!” Ed accused angrily, as if that made his feelings
justified. “You kept leaving all those
marks on my neck then making fun of me because of it!”
“Yes,
that’s true,” Mustang said simply. “I
won’t deny it. I enjoyed teasing you.”
Ed’s
mouth dropped open. Disbelief washed
over him and he had difficulty trying to realize his emotions into words. “You...
You... You bastard!” To think that the fucker had been doing it
deliberately so that he could mess with his head left him flabbergasted.
“Did you
expect me to say something different?” Mustang asked evenly. “Why else would I have done it if I didn’t
enjoy it?” Ed clenched his fists,
feeling the urge to strike out—to cause Mustang as much pain as he was
feeling. “But...” Mustang continued
softly, “I also quit when I learned how much it hurt you. Before you told me, I had no idea it bothered
you so much...”
“That’s
another thing,” Ed cut in, feeling his anger soften somewhat at Mustang’s
words, and not liking it. He didn’t want
to cut the man any slack. There was too
much he was angry about to let him off about that one point. “You just let me tell you all that stuff! That was private! You knew I would have never said anything if
I’d known it was you!”
“That is
also true.”
Ed
snarled at the calm tone Mustang was using.
He wanted to have an argument, he wanted to fight!
“I’m not
a saint, Ed. I admit it. I’m a real asshole sometimes. If I was a nice guy then maybe I would have
just left you in that motel when you started getting all weepy and pouring your
heart out to me. No,” he amended quickly. “If I was a nice guy I probably would never
have even gotten involved with you in the first place. Think about it. What type of a person sneaks up behind
someone who is pulling themselves to a dirty magazine, blindfolds them, and
proceeds to screw them?”
Ed had no
answer; and he realized that the more he thought about it, the more Mustang was right. Someone
would have to be pretty fucked in the head to do that... but then, someone
would also have to be pretty fucked up to let
that person do it and then go back for more...
“Or
perhaps I was trying to be nice by staying that night,” Mustang added quietly;
and, to that, Ed felt a familiar aching pressure in his chest. It had meant a lot to him that his mystery
man had stayed. How would he have felt
if Mustang would have just left him alone there that night? Truthfully? He would have felt like shit.
Ed hung
his head and tried to make sense of everything.
He thought over every encounter, every note, every feeling he could
remember having during this experience.
It had been an amazingly exciting ride and he really had enjoyed it. He’d come
to feel some sort of bond with his secret lover, as if he really meant
something to someone. It had kept him
going when everything else seemed to fall apart, and yet it had also had some
less than positive influences on him and his behavior.
It had
been a learning experience of immense proportions; but, truthfully, if he had
the choice to have not done it... Ed would still have chosen this path. He realized that the thing that was the
problem was that it had turned out to be Roy
Mustang, not the situation itself.
This was not okay. He hated Mustang. He’d always hated him. But in a way, some of the very things he’d
hated in Mustang were things that he’d liked in his lover.
Perhaps
it was his perception that made the difference... Ed had been willing to accept being ‘told’
what to do by his lover, but by Mustang it had been galling. Mustang’s overconfidence that he would be
obeyed without question had been a thing Ed had found extremely attractive and
arousing when it came to his lover...
Yet there
was still the question of why. Why him?
Why not just go out and find someone who was... well, better?
Ed knew there were plenty of people out there who were better candidates
for a lover than he was. He was way too
short, and... Ed rested his hand on his
automail arm and shook his head slowly.
It just didn’t make sense...
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy watched Ed’s face as he digested
all that he’d heard. The anger had
subsided, leaving a more thoughtful expression.
Ed swallowed, then let his head lower as if he
was looking down at his lap. The silence
stretched on for a long time, but Roy
was willing to let Ed think. Ed was
smart, and Roy
believed that if he was given all the right facts, the logical part of him
would overcome the emotional side.
Finally,
Ed rested his hand on his automail arm and shook his head before asking quietly,
“Why me? I mean... It’s not like I’m something really
special... I just don’t get it...”
“Why...
the first time, or why did I continue it, or... what?”
Roy asked,
feeling a little confused by Ed’s vagueness.
“All of
that,” Ed said quietly.
Roy nodded in understanding. “At
first... Well, you were there, and I was
horny and drunk. I was taking a chance
that you’d let me have my way with you.”
The answer was tactless, but with Ed, direct was often the best course
of action. “I liked it. You were...”
He thought back to that night and smiled. “You were very... good. Your dirty language
and unabashed willingness was exhilarating.
I wanted more, and since then I’ve never able to get enough of you.” Of course, Roy had other reasons, deeper reasons, but
this was enough for now. “I assumed you
were enjoying yourself as well,” he added, when Ed didn’t say anything.
Ed chewed
lightly on his lip for a moment, then nodded. “I did... I...” And now color crept up to Ed’s cheeks and up
to the scars near Ed’s eyes. “You always
came up with the best shit.” At that, Roy smiled; glad to know
his kinks were appreciated. Ed lifted
his head and hooked some of his loose hair behind an ear. “So... what now?”
Roy blinked in surprise. “What do you mean?”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed
frowned. “Well, I’m not as pissed at you
as I was... I mean, you were a bastard, but I already knew
that... And... you’re right, I did want it... and...” Ed trailed off,
trying to put his new found realization into words. He wasn’t one to hang onto ideas and grudges
when he’d been proved wrong. “I guess
what I’m trying to say is...” Again he
trailed off. He wasn’t really sure what
to call what they’d had and what to do with it now. “You... and me...”
Ed let
his head drop back down and began to nervously rub the bottom of his shirt
between his real fingers. He still
wasn’t sure how he felt about it being Mustang, but there wasn’t anything he
could do to change what was. His mind
was also prodding at him, telling him that all that time it had been Mustang,
so what difference did it make that he was aware of it?
It was
all so confusing, and yet the most straight forward path seemed to be finding
out what was going to happen now, because it sure was fucking awkward to be with Mustang now that he
knew who he was. Embarrassing too, since
he’d shared so much personal information with his secret lover as well as sex.
“Are
we... now that I know it’s you... or were we ever... you know...” Ed felt stupid, but at the same time he had
to know if there was anything more to what they had. Did Mustang feel anything for him or was he
just using him for sex? Not that it
mattered, Ed thought. It wasn’t like he
felt anything for Mustang...
There was
a sigh, then, “I don’t know, Ed.”
“How can
you not know?” Ed said in surprise. “You
know if you... well, anything for me...”
“Ed... What do you want me to say? That I love you?” Mustang paused, and Ed felt a little
numb. Love? No.
No... if Mustang said that, Ed would never have the nerve to face him again. He didn’t want Mustang to love him. He
most certainly did not love
Mustang. But... he did feel something for him... Or, rather, he’d felt something for the
unknown man who had always seemed to be there for him. Not love, but... ‘attachment’
might be the best word for it. He felt
attached to that man, as if they had some sort of bond...
“Or maybe you’d like me to bring you flowers and parade you around as my
lover?” Mustang asked mildly.
At that,
Ed felt blood rush to his face. He gave
an embarrassed half-smile and said, “No...
That would be...” He paused. It would be humiliating. There was no way he’d let anyone parade him around on their arm
like some sort of pet. But the idea of Mustang bringing him flowers was very amusing—odd, but amusing
nonetheless.
“Uh, no,”
Ed finally settled on. “No love and no
flowers.”
“Then
what do you want from me?” Mustang sounded relieved, but also insistent.
“I...” Ed frowned.
“I don’t know.” He folded his
arms and let his head lower in thought.
He felt torn between wanting his ‘mystery man’ to hold him, touch him,
and... other
things... and wanting to slam his automail foot against Mustang’s nuts. Though, truthfully, the first option was much
more appealing at this moment...
But
knowing that made him feel angry and embarrassed all over again. Unfortunately, the stupid colonel had come in
and calmly pointed out the flaws of his thinking, and Ed had realized that
maybe he’d really been upset because he was mortified that someone he knew—and hated, for that matter—had seen
him act in such an undignified and... well... slutty... manner.
It was
supposed to be his secret—something no one else knew... his own personal escape
from reality. Maybe he’d been
angry—still felt slightly angry—that his fantasies had been taken from him in
such an abrupt and cruel manner.
Maybe.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy watched silently as Ed sat
unmoving. With his face hidden from view
by his hair hanging in a messy curtain over it, Ed looked vulnerable in a way
that Roy had
only seen a couple of times before. Part
of him felt compelled to comfort Ed, but didn’t know if it would be
welcome. He also wanted to continue
their discussion. He’d made some decisions
in the last week—and if Ed would agree to them... Or he might get punched in the face for even
mentioning them, but that was a risk he was willing to take.
Leaning
forward, Roy
touched Ed’s real hand. It flinched
slightly, but Ed didn’t pull it away—something he would have taken for a sign
that Ed wouldn’t be open to his ideas.
He caressed Ed’s hand for a moment, then said
quietly, “I don’t want to stop.”
Ed lifted
his head slightly, frowned as if realizing that wouldn’t allow him to see, then dropped his head again.
“What do you mean?” he asked, his voice sounding slightly muffled.
“I mean,
I don’t want to stop...” He paused,
trying to decide on the most tactful way to say it. “I don’t want to stop what we had
before.” He silently congratulated
himself on the wording, then waited for Ed’s answer.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed wasn’t
sure he believed what he’d just heard.
Mustang wanted them to keep screwing around? Even after Ed had been pissed at him? “Are you crazy?”
he asked in shock.
“Not at
all,” Mustang said in that dammed calm tone of his.
Lifting
his head—so that Mustang could get a full view of the glare he was putting on
his face—Ed said, “I’m not interested in having a relationship with you.”
“That’s
not what I was saying,” came the calm reply.
Ed sat
there for a moment, then rubbed at his forehead. “I thought you just said—”
“I’m not
saying I want you to be my ‘boyfriend’ or anything like that,” Mustang pointed
out. “I’m saying that I want to keep
having sex with you. This doesn’t
require a commitment on either of our parts.
This whole thing started out because we both wanted sex.” A pause, then Mustang continued in a wry
tone, “I don’t know about you, but my need for sex hasn’t gone down since
then.”
“That’s
crazy,” Ed said, feeling confused, shocked, and a little eager at the same
time. Batting away the hand that was
touching his, Ed said, “I’m not interested in being your sex toy.”
The hand
instantly came back, followed by, “Yes you are...” It was said quietly—seductively. Ed would have never believed he could feel
excited by Mustang speaking to him,
but he was being proved wrong. The hand
slid along his arm, then touched his cheek.
“You want it, but you can’t bring yourself to admit it.”
His skin
tingled where Mustang had touched him and the place where Mustang was caressing
his cheek seemed to be connected directly to his heart, making it beat fast and
hard.
“I... No, that’s not...” Ed stuttered, feeling at a
loss. He didn’t want to keep fucking
around with this man, knowing who he was.
Or... did he...? If he didn’t,
then why wasn’t he pushing his hand away or punching him in the face? Why was excitement and elation coursing
through his veins?
He could
feel Mustang moving closer to him, then he felt hot
breath tickling his face. “I know you
better than anyone,” Mustang whispered smoothly. “No one is going to be able to satisfy you
the way I can.” A thumb ghosted over Ed’s
lips and he let them part slightly so that he could breathe in more air. “You know it’s true...”
Ed’s
brain seemed to be on overload. This
wasn’t quite what he’d expected to happen. He’d expected Mustang would try to leave on
good terms with him, but this? This wasn’t Mustang leaving. This was Mustang staying. This was Mustang
wanting to be more than on good terms with him.
This was...
Mustang’s
fingers slid under his chin, and Ed felt him move in so that Mustang’s mouth
was next to his ear. “Say you’ll do it. Don’t turn me away, Ed...” Mustang’s voice was soft and as easy to hear
as silk was to touch. Hot breath tickled
his skin, then he felt a tongue lightly touch the
outside contours of his ear.
“I...” Ed
gasped. Was this what he wanted? Could he really allow himself to have sex—knowingly—with Roy Mustang? How could he ever possibly let himself feel
free to do all those wild and crazy things with him? But...
Mustang already knew him—already knew him on an intimate level. He was right.
He did know more about him
than anyone else—except maybe Al. No... even more than Al.
The things he’d let slip in their one way conversations, and the things
they’d done together... Maybe Mustang
and Al knew him equally well, just in different areas.
Another
hand slid down between his inner thighs and Ed gasped lightly. “I’ll stop if you want me to,” Mustang
practically purred. “You know I
will. All you have to do is say the
word.”
Yes...
Mustang would stop. Ed knew that. It was something that he’d trusted in... But it felt so good... The familiar touch of that hand sliding up
his leg, moving closer and closer to his already half-erect penis... It felt so damned good! His earlier indignation was all but gone by
this point and being replaced with daring and lust.
“I don’t
want you to stop,” he finally said.
“I... okay, yes.” Mustang was
right. He could please Ed in all the right ways. He knew what Ed liked and what he didn’t. And he was creative and commanding without
overstepping his bounds. He was
everything Ed had come to enjoy about his secret lover...
Ed heard
a small growl of desire from Mustang, then felt the
cushions on the couch shift as Mustang moved nearer. The man’s lips were instantly on his neck
below his ear, planting wet, passionate kisses to his jaw, then down his
throat. He felt a hand on his arm, then
the hand in-between his legs moved in and fondled him through his sweats.
“Right
now...?” Mustang asked, as if it was really necessary.
“No,
maybe tomorrow,” Ed said flippantly.
“I’m not sure if I feel up to it today.”
Mustang
squeezed his hard penis lightly and murmured, “I have definite evidence to the
contrary.”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed bucked
his hips a little. “Damnit...
you know how I hate to be teased!”
Roy grinned as he took one last nip
at Ed’s throat with his lips, then slipped a hand
under Ed’s shirt. “I like to tease
you...” he murmured, eyes fixed on Ed’s squirming body. The sight made him almost instantly
hard. The way Ed moved, the way he
breathed, everything about him...
“Fuck
you,” Ed snapped, though the effect was ruined somewhat by his heavy breathing.
“Oh...
no, no, no...” Roy
said, then lightly pinched one of Ed’s nipples. “It will definitely be the other way
around...” Ed pressed his lips together
to keep in the sound, but the small noise of pleasure was still audible. His nostrils flared as he tried to breathe in
enough air, then seemed to give it up and opened his mouth again.
Leaning
in, Roy let his
hand slide down, then wriggled his fingers between the
couch and Ed’s ass. “You want my cock
inside of you... don’t you, Ed...?” he purred, bringing the hand from Ed’s
chest down to fiddle with the waistband of Ed’s sweats. He gasped as Roy slid his hand down beneath the waistband
and was also finally able to wriggle his fingers down enough so that he could
press on his opening through the sweats.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
“Holy shit...” Ed breathed. He’d thought that what he’d experienced before
was good, but he’d never had any audio to accompany it. Reaching out with shaking hands, Ed’s fingers
met the stiff material of the military jacket Mustang was wearing. Military sex. The thought was almost funny, but another
meaning behind it made Ed suddenly want this all the more. For now, until he signed the papers, Ed was
still Mustang’s subordinate. This was
fraternization... This was forbidden by
military law...
He could
feel the tip of one of Mustang’s fingers push the fabric of his pants inside of
him slightly as the other hand slipped easily down the shaft of his trapped
cock, and Ed couldn’t hold back a groan.
“I’m
going to start with my fingers, Ed...” Mustang said smoothly, pushing in a
little more for emphasis. “Maybe I’ll
even thrust my whole hand up your ass...”
An impossibility, given their size differences,
but the image of Mustang wrist deep inside of him made Ed whimper with hot
need.
“Yes...”
Ed finally said as he reached the top snap on the jacket and undid it. “Colonel... sir...”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy grinned widely at the form of
address. Ed had never before shown him
that much respect and it was ironic that he’d only do so as part of some sort
of sexual kink. Well, Roy wasn’t one to let opportunities go to
waste.
Leaning
in, Roy
whispered in Ed’s ear, “Oh yes... I’ll be shoving myself into you soon enough,
but that’s a privilege you’re going to have to earn... Fullmetal...” He shuddered
slightly at using that name in this setting.
Ed undid another snap on his uniform and the jacket hung open easily so
that Ed could reach inside and touch his chest through the white button-up
shirt he was wearing.
“Well, Colonel...” Ed said a little
breathlessly, “You know I’m not the type to just do whatever you say.
Roy slid his one hand out of Ed’s pants and brought the other
out from beneath him, as Ed bent forward to push the jacket off of Roy. Ed had to reposition himself so that he could
pull the jacket completely off.
With a
smirk, Ed pressed the jacket against his body, letting it cover from his neck
to his thighs, and began to rub his hands over where the jacket covered his
chest. After a moment, Ed slid his real
hand down to his crotch where he fondled himself through the jacket and his own
sweats.
Roy would never be able to look at
that jacket the same way...
But the
show only lasted a few moments before Roy
grabbed the jacket and tossed it aside.
He was more interested in Ed taking off the clothes he had on than him
adding to his attire. Grabbing the hem
of Ed’s shirt, Roy
pulled it up over his head, then tied Ed’s hands
together above his head with it. He
stood up and brought the hands forward, then pulled Ed to a standing position
with them.
“You’ve
gotten yourself into a bind, haven’t you?” Roy said in amusement.
“Very
witty, Colonel Smartass,” Ed said, dropping the polite pretense. Walking around Ed, Roy smacked him on the rear, before moving
back in front.
“That’s
no way to talk to your commanding officer, Fullmetal.” And just for good measure, Roy gave Ed’s right butt cheek a small pinch.
“Ow! Fuck... Maybe you’re just not commanding enough, sir,”
Ed said stubbornly, grinning widely.
Stepping
forward, Roy
pressed the front of his body against Ed’s and said quietly, “Maybe you just
need a little more discipline...”
“And
you’re just the person to give it to me, right?”
Instead
of answering, Roy
tapped Ed on the end of the nose. Ed
frowned slightly and pulled away a little, giving Roy the impression that the scars around his
eyes were still tender enough that the light tapping made them ache a little. “Very
good,” he said, making a mental note to remember not to touch so close to Ed’s
injuries. “Now, bend over and lick my
boots.”
Ed
snorted, then said smoothly, “Make me...”
Reaching
around behind Ed’s head, Roy
gently pulled forward. Ed resisted, but
only a little. He allowed himself to be
bent over half way before being pushed to his knees, where he brought his face
close to Roy’s
boots. Sticking out his tongue, Ed gave
it a quick swipe.
“Ew, fuck that’s nasty...
Don’t expect me to do that again,” he complained, then sat up, scooted
forward, and rubbed the crotch of his sweats against where he’d licked,
thrusting his hips in an erotic fashion.
“There you go, Colonel. All nice
and squeaky clean.”
“I
suppose that will do. I think I have
better uses for your mouth anyway,” Roy said,
watching as Ed freed his hands from the shirt Roy had tied around them. Putting his palms against Roy’s leg, Ed brought them up until they were
at his groin. Roy bucked his hips slightly as Ed spent a
small amount of time fondling him through his pants, then
moved his hands to the shirt while getting to his feet.
Ed pulled
on the white shirt until it was half untucked, then said smartly, “Here, let me unbutton this for
you.” Yanking each side of the shirt
near each button, Ed tore the buttons from the shirt and Roy watched them bounce on the floor.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
“How kind
of you...” Mustang murmured with a slight tone of displeasure.
Ed
smirked. “I’m just being efficient. The military likes their soldiers to be
efficient, right? Besides,” Ed added,
touching Mustang’s chest with his real hand.
“Those damn little things just get in the way. Think of the time we could spend fucking that
we’d have to waste on unnecessary tasks like undoing buttons.”
Ed let
the tips of his fingers move lightly over Roy’s
chest, feeling the fine hairs and the warm skin beneath. He knew this chest so well, had felt it so
many times, and yet this time it was
different because this time he knew just who it belonged to.
I’m touching Roy Mustang’s
chest... Ed
thought, feeling more than a little bit of strange wonder at it. He leaned in closer and dragged his tongue
over Mustang’s breastbone, then planted a small kiss on his skin before pulling
away.
“You
taste the same as always...” Ed said quietly.
He felt suddenly subdued. It
wasn’t as if he hadn’t already known
that the two were the same, but... there was something about getting close and
personal like this that really drove it home.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy stared down at Ed, feeling a
little confused and put out at the sudden change in his demeanor. Gently, he touched Ed’s cheek. “Ed...” he murmured.
“You
taste the same,” Ed repeated. “You...
you feel the same, you taste the same, you smell the same...” His hand slid up and touched Roy’s throat before moving up to his hair,
then gave a small, divisive laugh. “I
just can’t believe I didn’t figure it out before... It should have been so obvious...”
Roy shook his head, then reached up
and grabbed Ed’s hand and brought it to his mouth, giving it a small kiss,
before sucking lightly on the pointer finger.
He let the sides of his tongue curl up around Ed’s finger as he sucked
and enjoyed the look of desire that was forming on Ed’s face.
Pulling
it slowly out of his mouth, Roy
gave the finger one last lick, then said, quietly, “I
believe we usually have passionate, kinky sex before the heartfelt talk.”
Ed’s
mouth dropped open slightly, then his cheeks dusted
with pink. “Ah... yeah...” He gave a small, sheepish smile, then it turned into one of mischief. “You’re right,” Ed said, then
Roy felt Ed’s
automail hand touching the inside of his left thigh. His penis, which had softened a little by the
interruption, hardened almost instantly.
“Hey,
Mustang...?” Ed asked curiously, a lewd grin forming on his face.
Roy bucked his hips a little,
wondering if he’d have to tape Ed’s mouth shut so that he could get laid. “Hmm?”
Ed’s
automail hand slid around Roy’s
hips and rested on his rear. “How come
I’m the only one ever getting fucked up the ass?”
Roy frowned slightly. He hadn’t expected that question and the
answer was more along the lines of having never really given the idea of him being the bottom any thought. It just didn’t happen. He topped.
He controlled. The thought of him being the one to submit was just
ridiculous.
“Why?” he
asked suspiciously.
The grin
widened. “Cause... I have this really
awesome idea, but there’s no way in hell you’d be able to do it as the top.”
“I’m sure
I could manage it,” Roy
said, not thrilled about Ed hinting that he wanted to be on top.
Ed shook
his head. “You’re not flexible enough.”
Roy considered the idea briefly. He’d stuck a finger or two up his own ass
when getting himself off, but he’d never relinquished himself to another
person. An image of him on his hands and
knees, ass in the air while Ed did him was not very attractive.
“You’ll
like this. I swear,” Ed assured, seeming
to sense his reluctance. “I think it’s a pretty damn hot idea and
if I thought you could do it I’d totally let you,” he added. “Actually, I don’t even know if this will
work how I want it to... I’ve obviously
never tried it before...”
“Tell me
what it is and maybe I’ll grant your
request, Fullmetal,” Roy said, trying to show that he was still the one in
control here and if it happened, it would be because he wanted it to.
Grinning
toothily, Ed quickly told him what he had in mind and Roy had to admit it really did sound
delicious. And, Ed was right, there was
no way in hell he’d ever be able to do that.
Most people wouldn’t be able
to do that. If Roy didn’t know through experience just how
flexible Ed was, he wouldn’t even consider trying it.
“Alright,
I’ll allow it this once,” Roy
said, maybe more than once if it was as good as it sounded.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed felt
pleased that he’d been able to come up with something new. He wasn’t quite as creative as Mustang seemed
to be with these types of things, but this was something that he’d thought
about ever since the day he and Mustang had been together at the river
pavilion. If he could suck his own cock,
then he could surely do this. In a way,
he was sort of jealous that Mustang would get to feel what it was like.
Feeling
around, Ed grabbed the man’s hand and started slowly around the couch and to
the hallway. “I know the perfect spot
for this too,” he said, feeling more amused than he probably should have. Once he reached the hall, Ed was able to feel
the wall with his other hand, and he walked with more confidence down toward
the bedroom he and Al shared.
“Okay,
see those two beds?” Ed asked, waving vaguely into the room he couldn’t
see. “The one near the door is
mine. The one on the other side of the
room is Al’s.” He smirked. “That’s the bed we’re going to do this on.”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy chuckled. “You really are a dirty, little shit, aren’t
you?”
“Maybe,”
Ed said smartly.
Reaching
into his pocket, Roy
pulled out a small tube of lube and pressed it into Ed’s palm, then smacked his
ass and pushed him toward the bed.
“Let’s do this,” he said. “If you
think you can.”
Ed turned
and scowled at him, then dropped his head as if looking at the bottle in his
hand. “You knew we were going to end up
fucking... didn’t you...?”
“Well,
I’d hoped, but I usually carry that
on me at all times. You never know when
the right opportunity will suddenly present itself.”
Shaking
his head, Ed brought his head up to face in his direction. “I can’t believe what a horny, old man you
are.”
In one
fluid motion, Roy
pushed Ed backward onto Al’s bed and trapped him under his body weight. “I may be older, but that’s only in your
benefit. You’re lucky to have such a
knowledgeable lover who can keep up with you,” he murmured, rubbing his groin
against Ed’s body. “Now, let’s see if
you’re as good at fucking as you are at being fucked.”
Rolling
off of Ed and onto his back, Roy
stretched his legs off the bed and said, “Take my pants off, Fullmetal.”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
‘Take
them off yourself,’ instantly came to mind, but Ed
held back the retort. Standing up, Ed
felt around for Mustang’s legs—which were hanging off the side of the bed—then
moved in-between them. He undid the
buttons and straps at the waist, then pulled the pants and buttskirt
down to Mustang’s ankles, then realized he’d made a tactical error. With a grunt, Ed undid the ties on each of
Mustang’s boots and pulled them off before removing the pants the rest of the
way.
“No
underwear?” Ed asked, running his hands up the man’s legs and to his naked
pelvis.
“Why
bother with an extra barrier?” Mustang said lightly. “It’s me being ‘efficient’,” he added
smartly. “Think about all the time we
would waste by having to remove a pair of boxers.”
Ed
snorted then pushed Mustang’s legs up so that his feet were now on the
mattress, then paused again as he thought through the logistics of this. If only he could see what he was doing... He gave a small
sigh. It was so much easier in his
fantasies.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy fought the almost overpowering
urge to start giving Ed directions. It
was painfully obvious that Ed was having a few difficulties, but Roy had the feeling Ed
wouldn’t exactly appreciate the help. He
was starting to wonder if this had been such a good idea after all. Not that he wasn’t used to
awkward sex—he and Ed had certainly had their fair share of that—but
he’d never been on this end of it.
Finally,
Ed lifted Roy’s
legs so that they rested on Ed’s shoulders, then he heard the cap on the tube
flip open. “This might be a little bit
messy and... well...” Ed made a sound of
exasperation. “It’s not like I can see what I’m doing, so it might take me
a bit to get it all worked out.”
It was
probably a good thing that Ed couldn’t see Roy’s face, which he knew had donned a look
of nervous apprehension. He was just on
the point of saying that they might want to try this another time, when Ed
pushed a slick finger inside of him.
Ed’s other hand moved to his groin in an effort to bring Roy back to the point of
raging lust—something that had greatly diminished in the last five
minutes.
Ed was quiet
for once as he concentrated on what he was doing. There was no dirty talk, no glib comments, not
even complaining. Roy
would have preferred something, but he realized this also gave him a bit of a
chance to focus on this experience—focus on what Ed had all those times when Roy wasn’t able to speak
to him.
Another
finger was worked into him in a studious manner before Roy decided that this would probably be
fine. Ed’s cock wasn’t that big
anyway. He wanted to get this party
started. Later, he would teach Ed some
great preparation techniques, but this wasn’t the time for that.
“That’s
enough. If you’re going to fuck me, then
do it. No more of this poking and
prodding,” Roy said, a hint of impatience in his tone.
“Grouchy,
aren’t you? And here I was just trying
to be nice, but fine.” He pulled his
fingers out and a moment later Roy
felt the head of Ed’s cock touch him.
“You want it now? I can do that.”
Roy gripped the bedding tightly as Ed
grabbed his legs, then plunged inside of him. It was funny how Ed felt a lot bigger at the moment than what he really was. He sucked breath in through his teeth, making
a hissing noise at the stinging pain, then it started to ebb away as he got
used to Ed being inside of him.
“You
okay?” Ed asked, sounding a little unsure.
“Mmhum...” Roy
breathed in a higher pitch than he might normally have used. That was the last time he was going to
underestimate the size of any man’s cock.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed wanted
to be sure that Mustang was okay; but, at the same time, if he said he was
fine, then he probably was. Besides, the
feel of himself sheathed within Mustang’s body was...
“Wow...
this is pretty damn fine...” Ed murmured, pulling his hips back and pushing
them forward once. He was going to have
to push for being the one doing the fucking more often... He couldn’t believe how tight and warm it
felt...
“I’m not
going to last very long,” Ed observed out loud before doing what he’d said he
would. Grabbing Mustang’s cock in one
hand to keep it where he could get at it, he bent over and slipped his mouth
over the head. He had to pull out of
Mustang about half way so that he could reach it, but he could reach it in this position—that’s what mattered.
So there
he was, Mustang’s cock in his mouth and his cock in Mustang’s ass. He could only imagine how hot it must look,
and how deliciously pleasurable it must feel.
He slid his hands up Mustang’s chest and was pleased to find that he
could barely reach the man’s nipples.
Well, lucky Mustang... Ed doubted
he’d be the only one who didn’t last very long.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
While Ed
may not have been the best at preparation, he did know how to go down on someone, and he had a good idea of what
to do with his hands that felt good—things he’d probably picked up from Roy himself.
The feel
of Ed’s cock thrusting into him, of Ed’s lips and tongue paying some extra
special attention to his erection, and the feel of Ed’s fingers touching his
chest and stimulating his nipples...
It was
heaven.
No, it
was better than heaven.
Roy’s mouth opened and a moan of
pleasure—one he didn’t recognize as his own—escaped him. The pleasure was mounting at such an
incredible pace that he wasn’t sure if it was real.
“Ed,” he breathed. “I swear if you cum before I do, I’ll beat
your ass...” He wanted to cum with Ed’s
cock hard and thrusting into him. Ed
also had a habit of becoming a boneless mass for a few minutes after cumming. That would
definitely kill the moment for him.
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed gave a
small whimper at Mustang’s statement. Not because he feared anything the man could
or would do to him—even blind, Ed felt confident that he could defend himself
against someone as unskilled in hand-to-hand fighting as Mustang—but because he
really was close to blowing his load.
He’d
never had to hold back for someone else’s pleasure before, and he had a feeling
that if he wasn’t able to hold back long enough, his chances of ever convincing
Mustang to let him top again would be zero to none.
Mustang’s
hips rocked and his body thrashed slightly in a way that Ed had to work hard to
keep himself inside and keep Mustang inside of his mouth. The man’s cock throbbed and pulsed against
his tongue in a familiar way, and Ed knew that it was probably only a matter of
seconds before Mustang came. A couple of
seconds, but it still seemed like an eternity.
“Ed... aaahh... mmm... Ed... don’t stop...” Mustang moaned and gasped through unsteady
breaths. “You... ah... oh my... uh
ah... ho... shi...”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy had planned on something far more
dignified for their first time together with Ed knowing that his secret lover was
him, but Ed’s suggestion had intrigued him.
When he’d agreed, Roy
had thought he would give Ed some dirty talk to digest as he blew and fucked
him.
The small
gasps and mindless babble that were coming out of him now had not been part of
the plan. He’d never felt so much
concentrated stimulation and pleasure in his life and it was overwhelming his
senses and destroying his ability to think and speak.
The
buildup was so amazing that he wanted it to last forever, but he knew
instinctively that the climax would be much more astounding—though
devastatingly shorter—than the buildup.
His body desperately cried out for release; and, seconds later, it got
it.
Roy’s mouth opened wide and his
breath caught in his throat as the moment came.
He lifted his head and stared at the way Ed was leaning over him,
sucking his cock and arms stretched out across his chest. Then with the force of a train, the muscles
in his body reached the pinnacle of pleasure and then released him. His head flopped back down on the bed and he
closed his eyes in pure, unadulterated bliss.
He was
suddenly aware of the sweat on his skin, of Ed bringing his hands to grip his
legs, of releasing his cock and thrusting hard into his body... once...
twice... that’s all it took. Roy wanted to lift his
head back up and watch as Ed came inside of him, but he was too worn out and
the contentment from his release was still too powerful.
Roy felt Ed sag against him for a
moment, then slowly pulled out and took his legs off his shoulders with a small
groan. Within a moment, Ed plopped down
beside him on the bed and there they stayed, lying sideways on Alphonse Elric’s bed, legs dangling off the side, each with faces
pointed toward the ceiling—whether they could see it or not.
Then,
without warning, Ed moved over, resting his head in the crook of Roy’s arm and laying his own arm across Roy’s chest.
He’d wondered if they would still do this... Pulling him in, Roy kissed his sweaty forehead, then said, “That was simply amazing.”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Ed laid
there on his back, face toward the ceiling, breathing hard and fatigued, but
feeling so very good... He turned his
face to where Mustang was laying and frowned.
They’d gotten into the habit of sort of... snuggling... together afterward...
Snuggling and talking... It was
something that Ed had come to enjoy and look forward to.
But now... Now it was Mustang... How would it seem if he did that now? He didn’t want to be made fun of. Yet, it was something his secret lover had
accepted and even started on his own a few times. After a little more internal debate, Ed
decided that he wanted that down time and if Mustang said anything snide about
it, he’d introduce him to the front end of his knuckles.
Scooting
over, Ed laid his arm over Mustang’s chest and rested his head on his arm. He felt uncomfortable for about a second
before Mustang pulled him closer, kissed his forehead, and said, “That was
simply amazing.”
Amazing? He
had been amazing? Ed smiled, feeling a
little dazed and pleased with himself.
He had been amazing... He had
amazed Roy Mustang—his kinky and knowledgeable not-so-secret lover—in bed...
“Does
that mean I get to do you again?” he asked, then grimaced at the blatant
eagerness in his voice.
Mustang
chuckled. “We’ll see.”
Ed nodded
against Mustang’s arm. He felt content
with that—content with the whole world to be exact.
“I
haven’t told Al about you...” Ed finally said after a long silence. “I mean, I told him about what happened and
our meetings and stuff, but I didn’t tell him about you.” He paused, wondering
if what he was going to say would even be relevant or not. Would Mustang demand that his identity be
kept a secret? Would he want to keep
sneaking around? Not that Ed had any
plans to announce what they were doing to the world, but they could at least be
friendly with each other, right?
Ed waited
to see if Mustang would say anything, but when he didn’t, Ed continued. “Some of the problems me and Al were having
were ‘cause we weren’t being very honest with each
other. You probably don’t want other
people to know about us fucking, but it would be a little hard to keep it from
Al; ‘cause, as you might have noticed, I don’t exactly have the ability to
sneak around at night anymore...”
He slid
his hand up from where it was dangling on the other side of Mustang’s chest and
began to idly run it over Mustang’s collarbone.
“Even if that wasn’t so, I don’t want to keep this from him. I mean... if we’re really going to keep this
up...” He trailed off. There were so many questions flying around in
his mind, but he didn’t know how to ask them, and he didn’t want to seem as if
he was becoming too attached.
The
silence dragged on and Ed was starting to feel a little antsy when Mustang
finally spoke. “Exactly how much did you
tell him about our meetings...?”
“Ah...”
Ed cleared his throat. “Well... He wanted a lot of details...”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
Roy wasn’t sure if he felt flattered
that their meetings had been good enough to retell or embarrassed that Al now
knew such a personal aspect of his life.
“Was he
upset about what you were doing?” he asked, then realized this was the first
time he’d been able to actually take part in the ‘after sex’ discussion. He kind of liked it...
“Well,
yeah, a bit. ‘Cause he was worried about
me and stuff, but he’s pretty cool with it all.
I mean... he’s hardly a blushing virgin...”
Roy smirked, thinking of when Ed had
told him about the time he’d spied on his brother having sex with a girl on his
bed. Then the irony came to him and he
asked, “Did we just have sex on your brother’s bed as a way of paying him
back?”
He
glanced over and saw that Ed was grinning.
“Maaaaaybeee...” Ed paused, and the grin grew wider. “Do you think I should tell him what we did?”
At that, Roy laughed, then brought
his hand up and lightly ran his fingers along Ed’s arm. “You can tell Al about me if you want to, but
I don’t want you to make it out as if I’m the bad guy.”
“I
won’t,” Ed said. “I think I’ve gotten
over that... I was just kinda embarrassed and stuff. But I’ll be sure to tell him we ‘talked’
about it and decided mutually that we
wanted to keep it up.”
Ed’s
hand, which had been gently tickling his collarbone, moved down to his chest
where he laid his hand palm down. “This
isn’t like dating or anything,” Ed said.
“I mean... I don’t consider you
my boyfriend or whatever.”
Roy nodded. “The feeling is mutual.”
“But...
well... I still can’t get over the fact that you’re an asshole and that I
should hate you. So, I’d kinda like to get to know you better. I want to at least be friends... I don’t think I want to keep having sex with
someone I hate...”
Roy, eyes fixed on where he was
touching Ed’s arm, moved his gaze away to look at Ed’s face. There was no anger there; no stubbornness or
vindictiveness. If anything, Roy would say that Ed
seemed thoughtful and sincere.
Well...
and why not? Why not get to know each
other better? It was true that Ed
couldn’t possibly continue meeting him all over the city now that he was
blind—maybe when he felt more comfortable enough with himself and his
surroundings, but not now. And Ed was
being released from the military. It
wasn’t exactly out of line or odd to have a friendship with him now that he was
no longer his superior officer.
“As long
as it’s understood that it’s nothing more than that,” Roy finally said. “If I visit, if we get lunch together, if we
spend the night together, it’s just a mutual friendship. We’re both free to date and have sex with
other people. There is no commitment.”
Ed nodded. “That’s how I want it.”
Roy smiled and leaned in to kiss Ed
on the lips. He felt satisfied with
their arrangement. No commitment, no
being tied down. “Alphonse isn’t coming
back tonight, is he?” Roy
finally said, more to confirm what he already suspected than to actually ask it
as a question.
A grin
pulled at Ed’s lips. “Not
that I know of.”
“Well, I
could get ready to go right now, but that means I’d have to shower. Then I would have to find all the buttons to
my shirt and then fix it—or have you
fix it, since you’re the one who decided to destroy it—and then I would have to walk home, because Hawkeye drove me
here... But that’s just a lot of
bother,” Roy
said, then added, “Plus, I would hate to leave you here all alone—this being
your first night out of the hospital without your brother. I should probably stay the night, don’t you
think?”
;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;
“I don’t
know... Can you cook?” Ed asked, licking
his lips. All this fucking and stuff had
made him hungry and while he could
eat what Al had left out for him, there was no reason why he couldn’t try to
get more out of this deal.
“Not at
all,” Mustang said, humor filling his voice.
“But I can order delivery.”
Just what
Ed had been hoping for. “Then I suppose it wouldn’t be too much
trouble for me to have you stay here,” Ed said with an exaggerated air of being
put out.
A moment
later he felt Mustang lean in and lick at his neck. “I know exactly what I’m going to order,” he
murmured hungrily. “And I think we’ll
have a lot of fun eating it.” Threading
his fingers through Mustang’s hair as he nibbled at his neck, Ed had no doubt
that dinner would be a very exciting experience indeed.

Well,
there we go. Now all we have left is the
epilogue. Even then, the epilogue isn’t
exactly necessary. It’s just a short
little thing that I thought would add a bit to the story. Sort of like the cherry on top of an ice
cream sundae haha.
Anyway,
I’ll keep most of my notes and thanks for after the epilogue, which I’ll try to
get up really soon. But I do want to say
a quick thanks to all of you who have been leaving me comments. Although I can’t reply to them all anymore, I
really do appreciate them very much.
As
always, if you’d like to be added to the e-mail update list, either let me know
through a comment here (and be sure to put your email address in the
comment [I cannot see your
e-mail in your profile]), or
e-mail me at zakaii(at)gmail(dot)com.
