Recap:

As he climbed into bed, he imagined how it would be to be able to have Edward laying in his bed with him, clutching onto his and sleeping peacefully by his side. Roy smiled at that thought and plopped down, getting under his covers. Soon, his fatigue allowed him to sleep for once in the past couple weeks, freeing his mind from his fantasies.

Sometime during the night, Roy somehow acquired a pillow and soon snuggled into it, a certain blonde-haired shrimp that he'd fallen for taking every crevice his mind.

 

Chapter 4: Home Sweet Home of Roy Mustang

 

 

The next morning, Edward woke up to the sound of gunshots from off in the distance. He rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and yawned. He stretched out his arms, back and legs before looking over at his nightstand. He intended to pick up his pocket watch but instead a small folded up piece of paper caught his eye. He eyed it curiously before taking it into his hand. He unfolded it and read the neatly handwritten message inside.

 

Fullmetal,

 

I need to talk to you privately about some matters that need to be attended to. Please head to my office first thing in the morning. There is a spare key to my office in the plant by the door. Make sure to lock the door behind you. I'll see you then.

 

-R. Mustang-

 

Ed quirked an eyebrow at the seriousness of the note. He assumed it was confidential and no one else needed to hear about it. `Maybe he found out some information about the Philosopher's stone' he thought suddenly. As if inspired to get ready, Edward sprinted over to his small closet and barely took any time at all to slip on his clothes, shove the note into his pockets, slip on his shoes and coat, and head out the door. Edward's path was automatically directed to Mustang's office.

Meanwhile Roy was staring down the barrel of Hawkeye's gun, comically shocked by her earlier shots at him.

 

“Sir, what do you mean you want to `Take the rest of the day off'? You have a LOT of work to do today and I don't want to be stuck with it.” Hawkeye calmly, yet coldly spoke to her supposed superior.

 

“Hawkeye… put the gun down. I have matters to attend to today that are much more important. I don't need you to do any of my paperwork because I'll be take it with me, so please calm down.” He spoke calmly, having overcome his initial shock.

 

First Lieutenant Hawkeye sighed and hesitantly lowered her gun. `I guess as long as he does the work, it's alright…' she thought to herself and put the gun back into its holster. “Fine, Colonel, but you'd better finish it.”

 

Roy smirked, “Of course… Oh and one more thing, Lieutenant…”

 

“Yes, Sir?”

 

“Make sure to let no one but Edward into my office, alright?”

 

“Um… alright sir…” She replied with a slightly raised eyebrow and then walked back out the door to her own desk.

 

Roy almost smiled to himself as he thought to himself. `Edward will be here soon… Finally I'll be able to tell him.

 

Roy yawned to himself, recalling the events of the previous night's dream. It wasn't as erotic as all the others… It was passionate… It was loving.

 

He smiled to himself again. He hoped that all the dreams he'd had would soon become reality.

Edward stopped in front of the door to Mustang's office. He looked to the side of the door and saw the plant that the Colonel had mentioned. After digging around, he finally felt the cold, hard, metal shape of a key and grasped it. He pulled his arm out and used his thumb to try and wipe off the dirt. Not noticing the questioning glance of a pair of amber eyes coming from Hawkeye's desk.

 

He took the key and slid it into the keyhole. After unlocking it, he opened the door and immediately caught the gaze of two dark, slanted eyes almost hidden behind raven bangs.

 

Edward simultaneously flushed and felt it difficult to breathe. He forced himself to look away in order to close the door. He then locked it just like Mustang had said in his message. Afterward, he made his way over to the Colonel's desk.

 

Roy just gazed at the younger alchemist as Edward made his way over. He had to force himself not to get up and embrace the boy and spill his heart out. He looked so nervous, and it was just so adorable. This was a side of Ed that Roy had never seen. He wondered just how many sides there were to the small blonde.

 

“So… Mustang, what was so important that you needed to see me in private?” Edward asked curiously and was attempting to hide his nervousness behind an annoyed tone. Roy on the other hand could see right through the boy's façade. He honestly did try to contain himself, but a small and noticeable smile made its way onto his face.

 

“Edward… There have been many things on my mind lately… One thing in particular has me infatuated and partly confused…” Roy started vaguely as he stood up from his desk. He walked over to where Ed was standing and stood right in front of him. He gazed down into the boy's eyes and knew he had Edward's undivided attention.

 

“What… is it…?” Edward asked hesitantly. He face heated at the close proximity of their bodies. The young alchemist's heart raced as he figured this couldn't be about anything in the military or about the philosopher's stone… `H-He knows… Goddamn it, he knows about my feelings!! Oh god, he's probably gonna lecture me about how men should like women, not men… Or worse, he'll tell me to consider relocating!

 

As Edward's mind thought up every possible thing that could happen, none of his thoughts could've prepared him for what the Colonel had actually wanted to say…

 

Before Edward had any time to register anything, Roy took Edward into his arms in a tight embrace as he spoke. “You… Your eyes, your hair, your face, your voice, your body… Everything about you has been on my mind, Edward… God, I haven't been able to think straight for the longest time and I can't take it anymore…” He murmured into Edward's shoulder.

 

Edward was so shocked that he couldn't seem to move. He could barely believe what he was hearing yet he couldn't help but feel relief and happiness flood throughout his body. Roy felt the same way he did… but how could he have not noticed? He got absolutely no signals from him beside that finger comment the other day…

 

Roy embraced him tighter. “Fullmetal, I'm in love with you…” he muttered and then took his head from the boy's shoulder and pressed his lips softly against Ed's. This action following the words muttered only a second before caused the boy to gasp lightly, letting his face turn slightly red as he kissed the Colonel back reluctantly. Roy smiled into the kiss and allowed his hands to explore up the blonde's back until they reached his braid. Roy then pulled the band out of Ed's hair and let the golden hair unravel from its braid to cascade around and past the boy's shoulders. Roy buried his right hand into the softness of Edward's hair and pressed against the back of his head to pull Ed's face closer to his own. Roy licked Ed's lower lip causing his smaller subordinate to whimper. Then, the Colonel deepened the kiss, wrapping his arm around Edward's waist. Their bodies molded together as if they were meant fit together.

 

Edward shyly brushed his tongue against the Colonel's, making the older male slightly groan. Roy then flicked his tongue against Edward's and caused the boy to let out a small moan into the man's mouth. Knowing they wouldn't last much longer, Roy broke the kiss for some much needed air. They both caught their breath while keeping their faces at a close distance as they were able to feel each others' panting breath. Roy gently nibbled on Edward's lower lip playfully.

 

“Colonel… I… I've fallen in love with you, too…” Edward whispered against Roy's lips. Roy smiled at that and moved his lips up to kiss the boy on the forehead.

 

“Edward, why don't you take the day off with me and come over to my house? It's much more comfortable than my office. Plus, we can talk a bit more… I'm sure you have a lot of questions and concerns about our…situation…”

 

Edward simply nodded, still melting in Roy's arms. His head was resting on the Colonel's chest and he felt himself growing instantly tired. Roy smiled warmly at the tired boy and picked him up bridal style, then carried him over to his chair and sat down. He set him down on his lap and hugged him from behind. Edward blushed and was fully awake in an instant. Roy reached for his papers and began gathering them up to put them into his briefcase. Then, Roy motioned for Edward to stand up so that he could get ready for them to leave.

 

After everything was all finished and ready to go, Edward and Roy walked out the door to the office and strode down the hallway. They both could've sworn that they felt eyes on them, but decided to pay no mind.

They all watched as Fullmetal and Flame walked down the hallway together. Every single one of them was smirking.

 

“So, he finally did it… about damn time!” exclaimed Hughes from the back of the room, throwing his hands back behind his head.

 

“I wondered how long it would take them to finally admit it…” sighed Major Fuery quietly while petting Riza's dog, Black Hayate.

 

“Damn!!! They took less time than I thought they would!!!” Second Lieutenant Havoc whined from his chair.

 

“Havoc, you owe me twenty-five dollars” Hawkeye called from her desk, not taking her eyes off the book she happened to be reading. Havoc grimly reached his wallet and took out the money he owed, then walked over to Riza and handed it to her. “I can't believe I lost the damn bet…” he mumbled gruffly.

 

“Thank you.” Riza said, partly amused and slipped the money into her own wallet before sliding it back into her back pocket.

 

“So… what do you think will happen now?” asked the voice of Vato Falman, who was sitting by the window, watching the two who had left that were now heading to Roy's car.

 

This question lingered in the air for a few moments before every male in the room, excluding Fuery, got the most perverted smirks on their faces. Riza just kept to herself as she watched all the men in the room make bets on what would happen and how it would happen. She just rolled her eyes and continued to read. She was sure that they would decide when the time was right.

 

It's about time…

Roy and Ed side by side during the drive to the Colonel's house. Edward fidgeted with his fingers and kept his gaze towards the window. He watched the buildings and people as they seemed to rush past. He wondered what would happen… Or where he should start his questions.

 

Roy glanced over at Edward. He noticed how concentrated his face looked and he wondered what on earth was making the young man think so hard. He would've kept his eyes locked to the boy if only he didn't have to keep them on the road. Roy continued to drive down until he finally hit his street and turned. Soon enough, the two State Alchemists stopped right in front of Roy's home.

 

As soon as they walked in, Edward began looking around, finding his Colonel's taste in decorating very…well… Roy-ish. It was kind of what he'd picture the man to have. Black furniture, dark grey walls, some splashes of silver gold here and there. It was very well put together… Very much like Roy…

 

Roy just watched as the short blonde examined his home top to bottom, looking as if he were studying one of the most difficult books in the English language. After what seemed like a couple minutes into the younger male's inspection, Roy decided to walk over and tap on the boy's shoulder. He quickly spun around and tilted his head.

 

“Yes?” Ed asked innocently.

 

“Are you planning to inspect my house all day, Edward?” Roy asked slyly, smirking down at the younger alchemist.

 

Edward slightly blushed and scratched the back of his head, “Sorry about that Colonel… I tend to take in my surroundings to get comfortable…” He then walked over to Roy's couch and plopped down on it, using the table as a footrest and crossing his legs over one another. Roy looked down at his questioningly.

 

“I'd appreciate it if you didn't use my table as a foot rest, Fullmetal…”

 

“Since when did I do something that you'd appreciate, Colonel Bastard?” Ed retorted with a smirk.

 

Roy sighed and sat next to Ed. He looked over to him and then Ed spoke up again, his tone softening only a little, but still noticeable.

 

“Why did you all of a sudden decide to tell me about your feelings, Colonel…?” He asked as he looked him squarely in his eyes.

 

Roy was slightly caught off guard with that question, but then simply smirked and responded with…

 

“I've been having dreams about you Fullmetal, and I hoped this would make them stop, also… I didn't want to keep on waking up without you sleeping beside me.”

 

“C-colonel!?”
