Fullmetal Alchemist Fan Fiction ❯ Two Souls Intertwined ❯ Theme 39 ( Chapter 7 )

A few of you have been asking what the RoyAi 100 themes are. Basically it is a list of themes. These are meant to be a challenge of sorts to authors. Drabbles, full stories, whatever you want to write. Hope that explains things.

 

 

Sly (sl
)

Adept in craft or cunning.

Lacking or marked by a lack of candor.

Playfully mischievous; roguish.

 

The rain beat down upon the pavement. Millions of little droplets pounding the ground with great force washing away all the dirty imperfections of the city. It was a beautiful site to most people, but to one man it was a perfect excuse to sleep in. Snuggling deeper into the comfort of his bed he buried his head in the covers and smiled.

 

Across the room, Riza watched him burrow into his bedding. She couldn't help but find the gesture adorable and somewhere in the back of her mind she longed to go crawl back into the bed with him and cuddle. However, ever being the reasonable soul in this relationship, she knew they both needed to get to work soon.

 

“It's time to get up Roy.”

 

“Mmppphhh…” The black thatch of hair that was once visible instantly disappeared under the sea of comforter as he struggled to block out her voice and any light that was creeping into his warm oasis.

 

“I'm serious! You can't just stay home every time it rains!”

 

Silence… He was pretending to ignore her, but she knew that he was listening. With a big smirk on her face she taunted him with her next words, “Don't tell me your scared? Don't worry I'll protect you like I always do.”

 

The covers shifted a bit and glaring eyes peeped out at her for a moment before he curled up in the blankets like a caterpillar and flipped over on his stomach.

 

“Oh for the love of…” She marched over to where he lay and towered over him. “Get out of the bed now or I will take my gun and shoot you.”

 

He started laughing. How dare he laugh at her! Red faced she started to move toward her gun on the end table. But before she could get anywhere, an arm snaked its way out from under the covers and grabbed her. Unable to fight his strong grip she found herself pulled under the covers and wrapped in a bear hug from behind.

 

“You wouldn't shoot me, you love me to much.” Nuzzling her neck her pulled her closer. “Mmmhhmm, you smell good.”

 

“Roy we really do need-“ Deep breath. The nuzzling continued. “to go to wor- Ah, screw it.”

 

Somehow he always managed to do this, change her mind. But then again, she wasn't complaining. With him she could let the small voices in the back of her head win sometimes and she didn't always have to be the prim and proper soldier. Besides, the men had learned by now their Fuhrer never came to work on rainy days, why should she rock the boat now?

 

Closing her eyes, she remembered why she loved rainy days so much.

 

I always try to imagine what a relationship between Roy and Riza would be like. I mean the real stuff, every day life. I imagine that Roy would spend a great deal of time teasing Riza and trying to get her to loosen up, and she would occasionally surprise him with a little teasing of her own. I don't imagine either one of them changing a great deal, but I could see a lot of love and laughter between the two.
