Inspiration music: Illuminated- Hurts

It was only supposed to be a simple raid. There had been no reports of active zombies in the area.

"Ready to go babe?" Roy turned to Ed after he'd put his best on. The blonde smiled back.

"Almost, tie my hair up for me will ya?" Roy smirked and approached the blonde from behind, taking the hair tie from him and gently pulling the younger man's hair up into a ponytail.

"There," Edward ran his hand over the top of his hair and under the tie tho make sure Roy hasn't missed any strands and then turned around grinning.

"Thanks bastard," he snarked and Roy sighed but was smiling fondly. He took hold of Edward's face, cupping it gently before kissing him gently. Ed slowly brought his arms up around the planet man's neck, kissing back passionately.

"Remember last night?" He asked breathlessly, "I want a repeat from last night after the fucking mission okay?" Roy nipped his lower lip and chuckled.

"Aren't you still sore though?"

"Yeah, I feel like I can barely fucking walk right now. But I don't want to be able to walk at all okay?" Roy grinned.

"You can count on it, love," he said.

"Hey! Are you two lovebirds done yet?!" Havoc called over to them as Breda chuckled next to him. Ed nipped Roy's lip one last time before pulling away.

"Yeah! Let's go!" Ed grabbed his guns, a pistol and a shotgun and headed towards the rest of the group. Roy sighed and followed, grabbing his own shotgun.

They crept through the city, all the nearby stores had been mostly looted, they were heading to the outskirts of the city.
The glass from broken windows crunched under their feet as they walked through the streets. Roy led the group, Ed on his right, pistol poised to shoot anything that would attack them and Hughes on his left, throwing knives ready.Hawkeye and Falman were in the middle, grenades strapped to their chests and pistols pointed up. Havoc and Breda in the back shotguns ready.

Ed suddenly got nervous.

"I think we should get out of here," he said, somewhat agitated.

"It's fine Ed, nothing's here, this whole place is deserted by the zoms," Roy told him, Maes nodding in agreement. Ed shrugged but his eyes still held a nervous look.

The continued on through the city. They set up camp in a looted shop that used to sell instruments. They used the wooden instruments to start a small campfire which they used to cook their food. Even though it was canned, food was always better warm. Ed pulled out a harmonica and Roy glared.

"Don't. You. Dare." He said and Edward gave him a shit-eating grin before starting to blow through it and the sound of cliche sad western harmonica music sounded through the shop. Roy gave up burning holes into his blonde lover and began throwing the cans that their food had been into the fire. The smell of food would attract zombies, so they had to get rid of it.

When the food was burnt, Ed put his harmonica away and everyone settled down for the night. Ed pressed up against Roy and Roy wrapped his arm over Edward's waist. Ed rolled over to face Roy's chest. He leaned up, pleasing a kiss on the man's jaw, working his way down his throat then to the base of his neck. Roy hummed happily and Ed smiled against his skin.

"I wish this moment would last forever, fuck zombies," Roy chuckled.

"Time waits for no one love." He whispered in his lovers ears, which he then kissed and pulled back to tuck Ed head under his chin, "goodnight Edward," Roy whispered.

"'Night bastard," Ed murmured against Roy's skin and the dark headed man felt his boyfriend's eyes closing when his eyelashes brushed against his skin. Roy tightened his hold on the blonde and colors his own eyes.

They didn't notice the shadows moving in the darkness of the shop.

CRASH!!!

Roy started awake when he heard a crash, a shout then a gun shot. His eyes flew open and he saw Ed, not in his arms, but standing in front of him, gun aimed at the horde of zombies.

"Grab your gun asshole!" He shouted to Roy and the man scrambled to get to his gun. Maes had apparently already used all his knives and had now grabbed a hold of Ed's shotgun and was firing round after round as Riza alternated between shooting a rifle and throwing grenades. Havoc and Breda were on either side of Riza shooting rifles while Falman was behind them trying to pack every all their things up.

There were to many though. They'd stumbled into a nest of the creatures. They had to make their escape.

Falman finished packing their stuff.

"Go!" Roy shouted to the rest of the team, "we need tho get out of here!" They all turned and each grabbed a bag and sprinted away. Thank God that zombies were slow.

Most of the time...

As Edward grabbed a bag, a zom jumped on him, sibling it's teeth into his leg.

"AGGGHHH" Ed yelled out. Roy turned and Maes rushed tho help him. Ed screamed at him to go but the man, always to worried and helpful for his own good, didn't listen. He got bitten and pulled down next to Ed. Roy ran as the zombies went down of l on the two males but Riza grabbed him. He could still hear Ed's screams.

"Don't you dare-agghh- think of coming over here you bas-"
If was silent and the only thing that was heard now was the zombies moans and the sounds of them eating. Roy numbly felt himself be dragged away from the scene by Riza.

Through the crowd of zombies, he could see a glimpse of Golden hair... then a face. Ed. Same old Ed. Roy almost smiled but he didn't. Because Ed's eyes..

They were dead...

And unseeing...

"Romance you ego for a while,

Come on,

Give it a try..."

"It's such a beautiful night."
