  ''Man you're lucky you didn't have class today Brother.'' Al said with a tired sigh with Winry walking besides them exhaused and a bit dirty from her welding class, ''At least you don't have Welding.'' Winry said sighing in relief when she walked through the door of their home, ''It's great to be home!'', ''I know, I can just sleep right now, but I'm so hungry!'' Al said a bit surprised that Edward hadn't complained once or spoken the whole time. ''Ed, you haven't spoken or complained once the whole way, everything alright?'' Winry asked taking the words out of Alphonse's mouth with both Al and Winry looking over to Edward who had also ignored Den, ''...I'm fine.'', ''Doesn't sound like you're fine... Normally your day goes clockwork... Something must of happened.'' Winry asked worried when seeing her childhood friend throw his backpack on the floor, and drop himself on the floor leaning back against the wall with an even more bothered expression than he usually had. ''...I met Madame Christamas's Nephew today...'' Edward said almost quietly bringing a knee to his flustered face confusing Al and Winry, ''Oh... Well that's good isn't it? What's he  like?'' Winry asked, ''Yeah... That's good since you're the one that asked her about it a few days back.'' Al added in, ''A good thing... A good thing!?'' Edward said, ''The guy is a total useless womanizer, and I was stuck working with him today!''. ''Womanizer?'' Both Al and Winry asked with a raised brow, ''Just what I said! Madeline came in the store with him and everyone else just waltz over to him, and got all googly eyed over him, than he just comes over to bother me grabbing my face, saying all these weird things while I was working on my assignment! Than there was this other woman with long blonde hair and brown eyes looking for him to make sure he was coming over to her place later.''. ''Does he mean Riza?...'' Both Al and Winry asked looking at one another, before looking back to the flustered blonde who hadn't heard what they said since he was too distracted by his self talk about Roy, ''Yet Madame Christmas claimed to have raised him to be 'A good man', but I saw the total opposite of it!'' Edward said never realizing his cheeks were red, and his golden eyes had given away his new interest in Roy. ''And there was these two customers that asked for a... Well I had to go to the back, and Roy was teasing me about... He just kept teasing me when I came back, saying how both guys had liked me and saying I wasn't bad looking. Just going about how If I smiled more, I would be popular like he was!'' Edward continued, ''I was going to say something, but the moment I looked up to him , he just laughed and smiled at me, and he just looked so good looking... My heart just felt so strange!...'' Edward finished making a face, ''He pisses me off!''. The sudden revelation made Al and Winry look at one another surprised realizing their reserved serious little roommate had fallen for someone without realizing it, looking back the blonde who was blushing heavily, ''Oh. My. God...'' Winry said putting both hands over her mouth trying to wrap her head around the new news, ''I thought I would never see this day... You fell for him.'' She said with a smile now seeing Edward look up reacting, ''WHAT?! NO!... I didn't fall for him, he's just...'' Edward said but paused making a face. ''But you did, without realizing it Brother.'' Al said seeing his brother make a face, ''How old is he anyways?'', ''...He looks like he's in his thirties...'' Edward answered now embarrassed, ''Ohhhh~ He's still an older man?! How exciting!'' Winry said clapping her hands together in joy, ''I didn't fall for him!...'', ''Ah denial... The first stages of a first crush~'' Winry said with Al laughing at his brother who was blushing profusely when Winry walked away in joy. ''It's alright Brother... It's natural to fall in love.'' Al said sitting in front of his older brother who looked at him flustered and embarrassed making a face, ''Ignore Winry... She's just really surprised about it, considering you're so uptight about showing emotions or interests... I mean I am too but I won't tease you for it.'' He said seeing his brother's golden eyes look at him conflicted, ''...I didn't... He's a guy... I can't have fallen for him, that would make me...'' Edward said but paused feeling his brother's hand on his shoulder. ''Love has no limits...Remember that.'' Alphonse said with a smile, seeing Edward look at him surprised, ''Let's order some take out, it's been a long day, yeah?'' Al asked casually, ''Yeah... Let's do that...'', ''Do you always feel the need to leave a bad first impression, with people you meet?'' Riza asked Roy at her place over dinner seeing the raven haired look at her with a smile as if he did nothing wrong, ''Is this about earlier with the newbie?~". ''Please call him by his name...'' Riza said with a heavy sigh, ''Like you didn't think Edward was cute, Riza~'' Roy said seeing Riza look surprised and get flustered and make a face, ''Admit it~'', ''Alright, he was! But you seemed to like him more, with the way you kept teasing him.'' The blonde huffed making Roy grin, ''I did, I thought he was cute, though... He's a little uptight and inexperienced to be working with Chris and the girls...'' Roy said now serious making a face. ''What do you mean?'', ''I mean he's sexually curious. I saw the way he was looking at half of the things in the glass counter, which means he's tempted.'' He said seeing Riza glance up in thought, ''I see... Well he is in college so... He should be...'' She said casually, ''So you're saying he's sexually open?'', ''More than likely yes. I mean did he act strange with you in any way while you were there doing that favor for Chris?''. ''He did run off blushing when it came to closing time, after I spoke to him...'', ''Roy... What did you really tell him...''Riza asked since she knew Roy better, seeing the other grin, ''I told him if he wanted to try anything new, we could always go to the back~'' He said seeing Riza look at him blankly before putting a hand to her face, ''That's a real great first impression... But... Are you serious about what you told him?'' She asked with a raised brow and a serious expression. ''I'd give it a go, why not? He's pretty cute.'' Roy said casually with a shrug, ''Though I'm not sure he swings that way.'' He added in thought with Riza heaving a sigh, ''Shut up and eat, before your food gets cold...'' She said before eating with her small dog sleeping next to her foot under the table, ''Oh, someone got testy~ Maybe I should let you have a go at him first, huh Riza?~'' Roy asked tauntingly seeing his friend look at him annoyed, ''I'm going to kill you.''. ''Ed, you're off tomorrow yeah?'' Winry asked casually seeing the blonde look up, with the pizza still in his mouth but nod, ''Mhm.'', ''Well you don't have class either, and neither do we, so that means we can all go somewhere tomorrow, if you want to.'' Al added seeing his brother nod, ''I was thinking we could all go drinking for once.'' Winry said, ''I've been wanting to go to that small bar in the downtown area.'', ''That sounds fine.'' Al said looking over to Edward who paused making a face but nod with a sigh, ''Alright, fine we'll go drinking tomorrow, just don't over do it, it's still a school night Win.''.
