Don't Go

Chapter 1

"Hey, wait," she called.

I turned around and sneered at her, "What the hell do you want? Haven't you already wasted my damn time with your blabbering nonsense?"

"I just realized something."

"Wouldn't be the first time," I mumbled.

"You don't have a place to stay. Where have you been staying all this time?"

"None of your damn business."

"Look at your clothes. They're filthy!"

"Not as filthy as some of the humans here!" I snarled.

"Look, fall is coming closer as the days go on. You're not going to have somewhere to keep you warm. If you don't want to come with me, that's fine. Freeze out here for all I care."

"You don't get it, do you?"

"Get what?"

"A homunculus can't freeze to death. Trust me. I've seen some bad weather while I was alive two-hundred and forty years ago!"

"Fine then," she said and walked away.

I sneered as she walked away, but she turned around. She walked towards me and handed me a piece of paper.

"What the hell is this?"

"If and when you decide to not be a cold hearted creature."

She walked away and disappeared into the horizon. I opened up the piece of paper and read it through. It was her phone number and her house address. Why would she trust me enough to give me her phone number and house address? I sighed and put the contact in my phone. She was the only one I had. I got rid of my other phone a hundred years ago and got a new one. It was old technology was they would say. I walked towards the house and saw she wasn't home. Probably running errands or something. I sat on the chair that was on the porch and looked out into the streets. An hour had passed when she came back.

"You know, you're really stupid to give someone, who you just met, your house address."

"Why would you say that?

"Because, girl, you have no clue who I could be. I could be a murder for all you know," I said as I changed my appearance.

She stepped back a bit, but she smirked, "I have the best security Amestris can offer."

"What?"

She opened the door and a huge dog immediately jumped from the house and attacked me. I put my arm up to shield my face. The dog bit into my forearm. It's claws dug into my sweatshirt, ripping it as it kept on clawing.

"Axel, heel!" Y/N yelled.

The dog obeyed and let my arm go. He sat down next to Y/N's feet.

"What the hell was that for?"

"Best guard dog my father could have given me."

"A German Shepard," I said.

"Yep. Trained first hand by the military."

"Seems like he knows what he's doing."

"I'm sorry about that. He's not really like this when people come around. Although he is a guard dog, he's the sweetest thing my dad brought back from the military when he retired," she smiled.

"I guess you were just trying to prove a point."

"Come inside. Axel, do not bite. Be a good boy, you hear?"

Axel barked and walked inside and so did Y/N.

"Let's get you something new to wear."

"Already on it," I said as I took off my sweatshirt. I had my crop top and shorts underneath my sweatshirt and pants. She looked up and shook her head.

"The weather is going to start changing. That will not do."

"Please. I've been up in the Briggs mountains while wearing nothing but this. And shorts," I said.

"In Briggs?" she asked.

"Yeah. I was fine. You need to remember this: I can heal myself. And I'm an artificial human."

"Yes I know, Envy."

I sneered at her and set my sweatshirt on the couch and sat down. This place reminded me of our apartment back then. But it also seems different now that I'm practically in the future. I got up and looked around.

"So you survived all that time by yourself?"

"I met new people while I was in the streets."

"None of them asked to take care of you?"

"A few did. But I always wanted to stay out of their way. You see, I'm not the kind of person that likes people. There are certain people I like and that should be an honor since I envy humans. And you, Y/N, though you may be the incarnation of someone I loved two-hundred and forty years ago, that doesn't mean you get my respect off the bat. You, like every other damn human in Amestris, has to earn it. And it doesn't come easily."

"It better not. I want a good fight," she smiled.

"You really are a feisty one."

"I get it from my mother."

"I need to ask you something."

"What?"

"Is your mother still alive?"

"Yes."

"Did she have any problems delivering?"

"No. Why do you ask that?" She clearly sounded like she was creeped out by my question.

"Just wondering," I said.

"Whatever," she said. "Wait, you never wonder about anything. What's bothering you, Envy?"

I gritted my teeth together, "It's nothing."

"It's something for you to ask. What is it?"

"Can I trust you with this information?"

"I was yours two hundred years ago."

"You're not the same person from then!" I snapped. She took a step back, a terrified look in her eyes. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap. But you just can't say that you're the same person from two hundred years ago. Because you're not. And you'll never be," I snarled

"Just tell me what you wanted to say," she sighed.

"When I was with the person two hundred and fifteen years ago, she was unable to have children. I mean, she could, but she would either die or the child would. I want to know if you're like that."

"Not all incarnations are the same, Envy."

"Right. I was just making sure."

"Alright," she said and walked into her room.

I sat down and sighed. She was different from my Y/N. But at least I could have a chance to have a child.
