The Goodbye

The sunlight coming through the window caused you to be rather irritated, as you forgot to close the large curtains the night before. The night before.. You think, suddenly jerking up from the bad with a lot of force. Edward wasn't in the bed anymore, you look around the room to again, find no one. You start to worry, but your anxieties fade as you hear the shower clink on from inside the bathroom. You sigh, a hefty sigh of relief, as you slowly lift yourself from the bed. You wanted to try and wear the cutest articles of clothing you had, since this was going to be your goodbye with Edward, for a month at the least. Rummaging through your bag, you pull out every piece of clothes you owned, layer them out to notice you had your favorite outfit. You swiftly grab it, then begin to throw it on before putting everything back into your small suit case. You get up, and walk towards the nice sized mirror you peer at your own reflection for a moment before realizing you haven't put on a drop of makeup since you were back at home. You run over to your bag, tugging and pulling until you finally grab a few small objects, then running back over to the mirror. You carefully swipe some black over your eyelashes, then you run a little bit of red onto your lips, before smiling proudly at your small handy work. You finish packing up your bag entirely and take a seat on the bed waiting for Edward to return from the shower. Why are you so happy? You know you won't see Edward for at least a few weeks, but you can't help but be cheery, you know that you will see him again, you just have to. You hear the shower go silent as it stops flowing water, accompanied by some rummaging within the room. After a while You hear the door open, and you see Edward dressed and seemingly packed, looking more than ready to go.

"Didn't think you would wake up!" Edward says smiling at you.

"I thought you were gone when I woke up." You say returning the smile, but regretting saying something that sounds pathetic and desperate.

"I would never leave without saying goodbye!" Edward says rubbing his neck.

You giggle at his statement, at least he isn't a ditch you kind of guy.

"W-what is so funny?" Edward asks turning a slight pink.

"Me." You says smiling a little.

"What about you?" Edward replies confused.

"I just like you a lot Ed.." you say before grabbing your bag and heading to the door.

"I like you too (y/n).." Edward says not moving. You turn around and walk up beside him. "You meeeaann it Edward?" you whisper, teasing the blonde.

Edward turns a shade of pink and grabs your hand. "Lets just get going."

~~~~~~~~~

Alphonse and Edward are leading the way, talking and laughing like usual, until you reach the off white headquarters again. You reach into your pocket and pull out a pocket watch, you look at it and then look at the large building again. Is this really what I want? You wonder before you and the brothers make your way up the steps. You all make your way down the crisp clean halls before the brothers stop at a door.
