Dogs Unleashed (Royed)

Clumsy

''I should probably drop by with Roy later, to check on him.'' Riza thought as she walked through the door coming back from grocery shopping, and walking Hayate  sometime later putting the bag down along with keys on the kitchen table till hearing her phone go off, seeing it was Edward calling her answering it in confusion till hearing Edward sounded a bit off. ''Sorry if I bothered you...'' Edward said apologetically when Riza invited him inside her place, ''You didn't... You worried me.'' Riza said crossing her arms getting serious, making Edward nervous since she was wearing a dark tank top with a sweater over it zipped up halfway, jeans, casual shoes, a bit of make up, and her hair in a messy bun. ''What's bothering you?'' She asked simply seeing Edward look down hesitantly, but open his mouth to speak till Hayate had jumped on Edward that moment dropping him on the floor, making Riza sigh heavily and make a face  ''...Let's go to the living room to talk, since Black Hayate's bed is in there, he should run over to it to rest, since I just walked him.''. ''Okay, now that he's sleeping tell me what's wrong.'' Riza asked when she sat next to Edward who was still quiet, this time flustered, ''Roy kissed me!'' Edward said without hesitation surprising Riza who turned to Edward with a surprised expression in her brown eyes, ''...So... You're the one that hit him... And the reason he's sick...''She said with her voice trailing off. Riza stood quiet for a long moment sighing, concerning Edward till seeing she got serious again, looking at him with her brown eyes, ''You're confused aren't you?'' She asked kindly, ''I didn't hate it but... It's just that... I've never even kissed a woman, but I really didn't mind when he kissed me...'' Edward said with his voice trailing off feeling his face get flustered. ''I think I know what you're going on about...'' Riza said piecing together Edward was confused since he didn't mind being kissed by a man, but I still found women attractive, ''You know it's okay to like both men and women, it's not a crime Edward.'' She reassured with a smile with Edward glancing up shyly to the beautiful woman in front of him still smiling at him. ''So?'', ''So what?...'' Edward said shyly, ''So do you like Roy?''Riza asked bluntly, ''No!'' Edward quickly said despite his flustered face, ''Hmm... Well he does like you... He'll kill me for saying this but... He thinks you're cute, bad attitude aside.'' She said making Edward blush more, ''Don't say things like that, in a serious casual tone!'' Edward said making Riza laugh. ''Let me help you out, I'll let you kiss me. It's the least I can do to help you out in your sexual preference confusion.'' Riza offered making Edward react with a darker blush, ''E-E-Excuse me???'', ''Just what I said.'' Riza said again, ''Besides, I seen how you look at me.'' She said casually seeing Edward put his hands over his face embarrassed seeing his ears get red. ''Am I wrong?...'', ''No, you're not... But...'' Edward started quietly feeling Riza ruffle his bangs, ''I was just making a suggestion, I didn't mean to put you in a corner like that.'' She said apologetically seeing Edward look at him flustered with his shy golden eyes, that made Riza realize he was adorable and innocent, despite his sexual curiosity. ''...I see you you came from class, what class did you have today?'' Riza asked deciding to change the topic pausing when seeing Edward glance away shyly, ''...You won't tell anyone if I do kiss you right?...'' Edward asked wanting to see if he felt anything kissing Riza, since he felt his heart race when the raven haired male had kissed him. ''Of course not Edward... It'll be just between the both of us I promise.'' Riza reassured with Hayate waking up sleepily looking up glancing over to his owner the moment Edward had grabbed Riza's shoulders, leaning forward shyly and nervously, mustering up the courage to press his lips against hers, surprising Riza a bit at how soft the kiss was. Riza looked down with a flustered surprised blush when they both pulled away after a few long moments, with Edward looking down more than embaressed at the silence between them letting go of her shoulders, till the female in front of him spoke, ''...So?'', ''...I feel weird now...'' Edward said almost quietly glancing away, ''I take it I was no good?'' Riza said jokingly. ''N-No... I did enjoy it... It's just that... You're that useless womanizer's closest friend...'' Edward stammered, ''You like both men and women equally... And that's okay.'' Riza said with a nervous laugh, ''I hope I helped out a bit...'', ''...You won't tell anyone about this will you?...'' Edward asked again feeling Riza kiss his cheek with a smile, ''Of course not Edward~''. "You have to draw a portrait of someone, that isn't family?'' Riza said later at the kitchen table after fixing a small bag, turning to Edward who was holding Hayate in his arms who just nodded making a face, ''Yeah... It's due this week too... ...'' He said with a worried expression, ''I have a suggestion, not sure if you'll enjoy it, but it's a suggestion.'' Riza said. ''...Is it who I think you're going to say?...'' Edward said making a face flustered, ''Bingo, and I was thinking of having you actually give him this, since you pass by there on your way home.'' She added putting the small bag down on the table in front of Edward, ''I do?...'', ''I mean if you want to, I can always take it myself.'' Riza said casually. ''No, No... I can take it to him...''Edward said with an unsure expression, ''You sure? He is sick... I don't want you feeling uncomfortable.'' Riza asked again seeing Edward nod with a smile, ''Yeah... I could apologize to him about his face, while I'm at it...'' Edward said seeing Riza smile, ''Cool... Let me just write down the address, and you're good to go.''.
