Equivilant Exchange (an Ed x Envy fanfiction)

Part one

15 year old Edward Elric stood face to face with danger almost every day. Today was no exception.

"It's nice to see you again FullMetal pipsqueak" said Envy sarcastically. "Yeah you too" responded Ed while preparing his right, auto-mail arm for battle. Envy had an evil grin on his face as if he were planning something despicable. "It's too bad I have no intention of fighting you right now" said Envy. "What do you mean?! You've kept me waiting too long for this!" Yelled Ed

"Your a human sacrifice, I couldn't hurt you even if I wanted to, and you have no idea how much I want to." grumbled Envy

"That gives me the advantage then" responded Edward while smirking. He could do anything he wanted and Envy couldn't do a thing about it. Edward attempted to strike Envy with his blade but Envy just caught the blade and twisted Edward's arm. Envy had the upper hand. He kneed Ed in the stomach and kicked him aside. "Your not even a challenge." Mocked Envy while pretending to yawn. Ed was on the floor unable to move at all. "May as well keep you here." Said Envy. The next thing Ed knew he was in a cell. His wrists were chained to the wall. He was a prisoner of the humunculus. His stomach grumbled. He hadn't eaten in a while. Almost on cue Envy walked in with a tray of food. Envy sighed. He knew this was going to be weird for both of them. Envy sighed again as he sat down in front of Ed. He grumbled "open up" Ed looked confused. "You need to eat. Fathers orders" Ed understood now what was happening. Envy had to feed Ed. Ed reluctantly opened his mouth. Envy had guessed correctly, it was awkward for both of them. Envy tried not to look at Ed as he put the food in his mouth. He didn't realize it but he was blushing. At one point Edward said "I always knew you had a thing for me" once he said that Envy slapped him and ran out of the cell. It was embarrassing enough without the witty comments. Envy couldn't help but think of Ed as he walked out. He just looked so helpless and frail, almost like an innocent child. "What am I thinking?!" Yelled Envy in frustration. He didn't know what this was he was feeling. It drove him insane. He had this feeling in his chest that he just couldn't ignore. It hurt so much but yet it felt so good. Then out of nowhere, for the first time in what seemed like forever, Envy smiled. It wasn't like an evil grin that was usually on his face. This was an actual smile of pleasure. Once he realized what he was doing he cut it out instantly. It was all fake. Something that he could forget all easily tomorrow. With that in mind he went to his room above the cell that the young alchemist was in and fell into a deep sleep.

Ed's cheek was red from when Envy had slapped him. He didn't expect him to react do harshly. "Why was he blushing?" Ed asked himself. It didn't matter at this point. He tried contemplating ways to escape but all attempts lead to his minding wandering to a place much further than anyone could ever go. This happened often when he was bored and had nothing else to do. At one point he almost wished Envy would come back in his cell, almost. In reality if Envy came back into his cell he'd probably have no way to handle it. Soon all the thinking about escape and the far away world and Envy made the alchemist tired beyond compare. So, without meaning too, he fell asleep.

The next morning Envy had forgotten about the awkwardness of yesterday. Not for long though. He remembered exactly when she remembered that Edward had to be fed again. "Great, more comments about me liking him" muttered Envy to himself. Envy shivered. Why on earth would he like him? He was clumsy, weak, and he had something that Envy didn't. He had alchemy. Being the embodiment of Envy, he hated Ed for using alchemy when he couldn't. It enraged Envy so much that he punched the wall. Now that that was out of his system, he went down stairs to get food for himself and Edward. Envy sighed. Another awkward moment. He walked into Ed's cell to find him sleeping like a baby. He looked so peaceful and yet sexy at the same time. His wrists were still pinned to the wall. His hands dangled from the chains holding him down. His head was thrown to one side with his hair messily covering his face. He was still on his knees while sleeping. Half of his shirt was gone due to a previous battle. Envy regrettably stared at him. He was no different a person than when they were fighting each other but still he couldn't help but stare at him now. He got closer to Ed observing his face and body. He wanted to touch his body, he wanted to embrace that beautiful body he had, but he couldn't.

Edward awoke to a very strange sight. Envy, standing very close to him. Once Envy realized that Ed was awake he stepped back very quickly. He was blushing hard. Soon Edward found him self blushing as well. "How long have you been standing there?" Ed asked

"I.. I don't know..." Envy responded embarrassed. "it's.. It's breakfast.." said Envy quietly. Envy started blushing even deeper. Ed finally asked "Why is your face all red?" the look on Envy's face was so priceless Ed wished he could freeze time and look at it forever. His whole face went red and his eyes were as big a saucers. The only sound coming from the room were squeaking noises that came from Envy. "Just open your mouth little brat" responded Envy

"Ok." said Ed as he opened his mouth.

"But that still doesn't answer my question."

"Just shut up ok!" Yelled Envy. Edward just laughed.

"What are you laughing at pipsqueak?" asked Envy as she put some food into Ed's mouth. "That was priceless! You should have seen the look on your face!" said Ed. What he was thinking was much different though. What he was thinking was "I had no idea you could be so cute." That thought haunted him so much that he almost forgot to swallow his food. Envy wasn't cute. He was a humunculus, pure evil. But yet there was this part of him that he had never seen before. "Just shut up and eat." grumbled Envy as he stuffed more food into the young alchemist's mouth. Ed sarcastically saluted and said "yes sir" Envy rolled his eyes at the remark. Soon Ed was done eating, but when Envy turned to leave Ed added "thank you for the meal." Envy just rolled his eyes and responded "whatever FullMetal"

"FullMetal?" Ed questioned to him self when Envy left. He had never called him by his title. It didn't matter anymore. The one thing that he was focused on was remembering what Envy's face looked like. It was so cute and fragile the way Envy blushed like a love-sick school girl. He was so close too. He could see the detail in his face and body. It almost reminded him of a cute little girl. He had never seen Envy as cute. Maybe that's because he never let himself be cute. This thought consumed his mind until he couldn't hold it in anymore. He called out to Envy who was one floor above him. "Hey Envy! Could you come down here?!" Envy came down almost a second after. "What do you want FullMetal?" he asked. There it was again, FullMetal. "I'm finding my self quite hungry again. Could you possibly feed me?" he asked.

"You just ate!" exclaimed Envy.

"I'm still growing I need a lot of food!" Responded Ed.

"Whatever FullMetal. I'll get some food if you'll stay quiet."

"It's a deal!" Responded Edward. Envy returned shortly with some food for Ed. Ed opened his mouth trying to get a good look at Envy's muscular but somehow delicate body while. His eyes wandered across Envy's neck down to his waist. Edward found himself blushing. "What are you looking at?" asked Envy while putting some food into Ed's mouth. What Ed said next came out on its own. "Cute..."

"What?" Questioned Envy

"Your cute..." responded Ed. Envy stated blushing like crazy again. Ed looked at Envy's fragile face. His eyes were fixated on the floor. "Why don't you look at me? I'm not a stranger? Why don't you look me in the eyes." Edward suggested. Envy looked up from the floor and into his eyes. My hey both just stared into each others eyes for a while. Then after a while Ed requested that Envy get closer to him. Envy scooted at bit closer to him. Then, Edward leaned forward as much as he could and he kissed Envy. He expected for him to pull away or slap him. His only thoughts were, "Please, pull away! Slap me, scream at me! Don't let me do this!" He was enjoying it way to much. Envy put his arms around Ed's neck. Soon Envy broke away for air but not for long before he started kissing Ed again. They both knew that it was wrong. They were enjoying it too much, way too much, but they both decided right there that they were in love. No matter how wrong it was. Because to them it was so right.
