Pills and Buttons

What It Wants

I deemed this picture appropriate for the last three titles XD I'm sorry. Continue reading!

Roy wheeled the chair he sat in down the hall, Fullmetal sitting in his lap with his hands over his eyes. Apparently, he had a surprise for the blonde Elric boy and Ed was a bit nervous. Why? That even he didn't know.

"Just tell me where we're going..." Edward whined, pouting with a whimper. He still had his eyes closed even as he crossed his arms over his chest. Roy laughed, hugging him before pushing the wheels forward again.

"All in due time, Ed. Now, patience!" He scolded the Fullmetal runt, smirking as he pressed a button to open the doors that let in a breath of early morning warm air. Riza had found this place and Roy knew it was perfect.

"I can hear water running." He was right, a small stream trickling through the hospital's botanical garden. "Where are we, Colonel Bastard?" He leans back into Roy, hugging his neck as they rolled along.

"What did I say about patience?" He kissed an open spot on Ed's neck, doing the same to his ear. "Now be quiet, before I bite you somewhere you should never be bitten." Edward's face burned bright red, his lower abdomen throbbing with heat at the idea of what Roy meant.

"Is that a promise or a threat?" He didn't realise what he was saying before it was out of his mouth. Roy rose a brow, chuckling darkly.

"Both."

He rolled up to a chair Riza had pulled up next to a table, shifting the alchemist onto it. Around them was a small blue table, two chairs and a few flowers in a vase. Branches of a Willow tree tickled them from above, vines of wildflowers crawling a wall near by. "Now you can open them." Ed opened his golden orbs, taking in the blurry shaped of flowers and trees.

"I wish I could smell all the flowers," Ed said as he reached out to touch the soft petals of a peony. "But I'll have to settle for touching." Sophie was dressed like a waitress, bringing two plates of food out to the couple.

"Bon appétit!" She said, bowing at the waist before disappearing back into the garden somewhere. Ed was in a mild shock because of all this, shaking his head.

"What is all of this?" He thought all of this was an allusion, not actually happening and his brain had made it all up. "Why are you doing this?"

"It's called affection, my dear Elric." Roy took said boy's hand, bringing it up to his lips. "Accept it." His hand, the one not holding Ed's hand, brushed his bangs away from his honey colored eyes. "So, do you like beef tips with egg noodles?" He passed the 19 year old a fork, picking a second one up for himself.

"Never had it." Ed pierced a piece of meat, to his findings was quite tender, and brought it to his lips. It was covered in a savoury gravy, making it taste even more fantastic. "Are you sure Fia's not a chef in disguise?" Roy snorts, laughing as he took a drink of water from his glass. "Seriously, how does anyone actually cook? Is there a special geno type for this?" He nibbled at a few noodles, resting his chin on his palm.

"Did you miss me?" Roy's coal black eyes stared directly at him, a bemused glint in the rich coffee color.

He makes a noise in his throat. "No, because apparently I just love to worry." Ed rolls his eyes in addition to his answer. "But, yes I did." Roy was still laughing at his first answered and sighed through his nose.

"Just as an FYI, you kinda plagued me. I don't know whether it was comforting or just persistent." Ed rolls his orbs to the heavens again, capturing the Colonel's mouth for another kiss. The taste of meat lingered between them. The blonde alchemist set his fork next to his plate, resting his chin on the knuckles of both his hands.

"You at one point did in fact say that I was a, and I quote, 'persistent motherfucker'." Mustang rose a thick black brow with a smile pulling up into his eyes.

"Your memory, Edward Elric," he began to inch their lips closer, "is flawless." He gave his love a kiss. "And I don't know whether that's good or bad."

"I still have blackmail on Havoc from three years ago stored away." Edward's voice was no more than a whisper as Roy kissed him again. "But shouldn't you be in your room, per se... resting? " Edward crossed his arms over his chest, raising his eyebrows at the Flame Alchemist.

"Food for thought, then rest." Roy commented, mimicking Ed's moves.

"Rest, then food for thought." He shot back, climbing into his lap and unlocking the wheels. "Now come on. Back to bed - hey!" The wheels locked again, Roy's fingers locking his wrists together over his head. The 29 year old nipped at his ear, a smile tugging at his lips.

"I might want to move my promise up. Do you remember it?" His voice was like bark in Ed's ears, course and rugged.

"How could I forget?" Ed could feel Roy getting excited and he ground back against him. The Colonel let his grip loosen a bit and Ed manages to get his wrists away. He rolled the wheels down the hall, a sulky Mustang behind him with his arms wrapped around the driver's waist. Upon returning to his room, Mustang realized something.

Something very important he had overlooked til now.

Ed had barely touched his food.
