Just Like Me (Ed Elric x Reader)

Chapter 24

You wake up in the morning, your shoulder still in pain.

You look over your shoulder to see Ed still holding your hand, asleep in his chair.

“Ed?” You shake his hand. He wakes up and looks around. He looks to you, and realizes the events of the day before.

“Great, you’re awake,” Winry walks into the room with a tray of food. Eggs and water.

You sit up as much as you can and eat some food. You only eat about half. But you drink all the water.

“How’s your shoulder?” Ed asks you.

“Fine. I’ll live,” You respond.

“Why would you do that? Who would you want to-your brother,” Ed realizes.

“I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have but I just-” You say, but Ed cuts you off. He hugs you, careful not to hurt you.

“I’m just glad you’re okay,” He says. He lets you go.

“I want automail,” You blurt out.

“What? Now? You just got out of a total shit storm and now you want auto mail this fast? You could die you moron. Your body’s going through so much stress you’re not used to!” Ed snapped.

You look to the floor, “I’m sorry. That was stupid.”

“It could work,” Winry says. You look up at her.

“Ed, you got automail almost the same day. I don’t see why she couldn’t do the same. You were younger than her too. This could work,” Winry finishes.

You looks to Ed. He thinks this over for a second.

“(Y/N). Do you think you can handle it?” He asks. You nod.

“Let’s do it,” You say.
