"Oh... Hey there.... heh..."
I was nervous. Super nervous. What would I do if they asked about the blood?! Maybe I'll just say I don't remember. All right, that's the best I've got. For now.
"She's awake?! And what do you mean by- oh! What happened?!" Winry gasped as she saw the blood. "... Honestly? I... I don't remember..." I mentally high-fived myself for my adeptness at this whole lying thing. On the inside I was screaming my head off. "Anyways... where am I?" I ask, faking curiosity. I knew where I was. I knew who they were. I knew things about them that even they didn't know. And all of a sudden, meeting them in real life, I felt like a stalker. "Oh! This is the Rockbell residence, in Resembool! I'm Winry Rockbell, and this is my grandmother,Pinako Rockbell!" Winry said as she smiled warmly. I genuinely returned the smile. I liked Winry; she was a great character. The only thing that made me uncomfortable was that she was meant to end up with Edward Elric, your anime crush, but you held no hard feelings towards her. "Sweet! My name's (y/n)(l/n). The girl that came with me is Roxy Weasley." "Nice meeting you, kid, but I gotta tell you something. Your friend Roxy over there got hurt pretty badly. You'll need to stay here until her arm's fixed." "Great, thanks. And about that... can we... uh... stay here for longer? We're pretty lost around here and have nowhere to stay. You can teach us how to work with automail, and we'll pay for Roxy's arm with our service! If that's okay." "Come to think about it, we could use some help. You can stay here for as long as you like if you're up for it." "We are! Thank you so much, Ms. Rockbell!"

Y/N'S POV
•••••
In the past five weeks of our stay in Resembool, Rox and I became almost as good mechanics as Winry and Pinako. Winry, Roxy, and I have become really close... she even told us about Ed and Al's story (which says a lot). Roxy and I reached Ed's level in alchemy when we realized that after Truth we too didn't have to rely on transmutation circles. You may be saying 'what? But alchemy only exists in the world you're in right now!' Truth be told, any normal person would've only gotten as far as mastering chemistry. But the thing is, Roxanne and I aren't nornal. We're witches. And being the awesome witches we are we studied and mastered alchemy years ago. So during our stay in Resembool, Roxanne got a new arm, we became prosthetic and mechanic experts, and I grew the habit of walking around in a sports bra and pants while working. Everything was going normally- for now.

Y/N's POV

I heard the door open and the sound of voices flood the once quiet house, and out of a mix of curiosity and anticipation for what she thought would happen, she was not dissapointed- a blonde midget, a deformed suit of armor, and a buff bald guy stood at the doorway. As my eyes travelled onto each of them I couldn't help but smile- Ed looked adorable when he was grumpy.
"Sup! I'm (y/n), you?"
•••Ed's POV•••
"Sup! I'm (y/n), you?"
My eyes widened as I realized that a) she wasn't Winry b) why the fuck did she smile like she knew something we didn't?! And c).... Oh god... She's only wearing a bra and some pants. Point c caused me to turn a lovely shade of red. "Oh..uh...Hey, I'm Edward Elric. This is my brother Alphonse," I said, pointing at Al. And then, of course-
"My name is Major Alex Louis Armstrong!! It is my humble pleasure to meet you both lovely ladies!! I
would like to thank you for letting us into this magnificent household!" Pinako thanked the guy for his kindness and (y/n) laughed out loud, which kinda shocked me. How was she not irritated by his constant formal spew of emotion?!
"Oh, it's fine, don't worry, it's wonderful seeing you guys,really, it's been all the same for a while now. I needed some new faces around here!" She exclaimed, a big smile on her face. As she got closer to greet us, I noticed she had (h/l)(h/c) hair and (e/c) eyes, with a sprinkle of barely visible freckles on her nose. "Ed? What exactly happened that you look like a tomato?" (Y/n) said, still smiling but slightly frowning. "Uh.. it may have to do with the fact that you're shirtless..." Al pointed out in a quiet voice. "Oh," (y/n) said, blushing. "You could've just asked me to put a shirt on..." she said, pulling on a white t-shirt. "ED!!" I heard Winry shout, and I found myself smiling. Until her wrench met my skull.
