(Y/N)'s P.O.V

I couldn't believe it. The Elric brothers were standing in our  automail shop! Since I had come to work here, Winry had told me about the famous brothers, but when they'd first come in I didn't know it was them. Edward, the older boy, was a person with a good heart but I could tell he had a fiery temper at times. Angry at times, but he was a good person just like Winry had said; When she had been telling me about them on slow days in the shop, she made me promise to take a mental note of never saying the word short around him. I'd looked at her confused then, but now that I'd seen him I knew why.

And then there's Alphonse Elric, the younger brother. Even right now, right now while he's sitting across from me, I can tell how gentle he is. Despite wearing that suit of armor, and even though I've only known him a few hours, Alphonse isn't scary at all. I tried to ask Winry why he wears that armor, but she just told me she felt it would be better to let him do that when he was ready.

The famous Elric brothers are even more than I expected.

"So..." Alphonse started, his echoing voice making me look over at him.
"H-How how long have you been working here? W-With Winry I mean..", Alphonse asked. I noticed how he shyly looked to the side as he kept talking. Winry forgot to mention just how adorable Alphonse was.
We had decided between us that it would be best if we each worked on the boys' automail, Winry taking Edward's arm to repair since she made it and I took Alphonse.

I smiled at him and looked over his armor at the damage.
"A few months, but I've loved automail for most of my life," I said. We went into comfortable silence as I picked up one of his metal arms. I've noticed these few hours that I've known Alphonse that we're already picking up a pattern of comfortable silence, and it's nice in a way. But I want to know more about him.

As I looked him over, he did look pretty bad. One of his metal arms was barely still on, because he had had to hold it with his other hand when he'd come in with Edward. There was also a large chunk of metal missing from his right thigh, as well as there being a large crack running down the side of his left shoulder. Honestly, I didn't know how he was still standing inside of it and how  I couldn't see him.

I glanced up at him with my eyes while I ran my hand along his metal arm, watching heat somehow come on his helmet. I quickly looked back down and blushed as well, feeling his glowing eyes now on me. I've only known him a few hours, could I really already think he's attractive?

"We weren't  told you were this banged up," I commented, smirking a little as I removed my hand from his arm. I looked up and watched him sheepishly rub the back of his neck in embarrassment, which I found even more adorable the more I looked at him.

"Hehe y-yeah, sorry about that. Brother just thought if he-"

"If he said how bad it was we wouldn't help I know," I interrupted. He looked at me quietly as I smiled again.
"Trust me, when it comes to automail or metal in general we'll always help."

We looked at each other before I put my hand on his metal thigh with the large piece missing out of it. Alphonse wasn't sure about what I was doing so he immediately became embarrassed.
