Description Okay, chapter 2 of my EdWin story. I don't own fma.

Sorry for any typos, I do everything on my tablet and autocorrect might mess up.

Also I'm used to writing in first person so I might slip up with that here and there.

Ed stared at the Fuhrer and his wife strolling casually up the path. It almost looked like they came here every day.

Al stood next to Ed, gaping at Roy, who Ed suddenly noticed was arm in arm with Riza. The Elrics looked at each other and snorted - in the past, she would have never let him do that.

By now, Winry had noticed the movement on the balcony and waved, effectively giving away their position to Roy, who smiled evilly.

"I see you're not that much taller, Ed!" He hollered, ducking to avoid a chair as it was launched at his head. He laughed along with Riza as a wrench was aimed, fired and just about dodged.



The fire crackled in the fireplace, providing much-needed warmth. Presents were passed around after a huge christmas dinner - with all the boys wearing Santa hats, and the ladies wearing elf ones, presents were received, opened and enjoyed.

Winry was given a new pie dish set and a hue tin of waterproof metal polish.

Ed got a couple of new alchemy books, and a book called 'Ways To Grow Taller Really Quickly', from Mustang. This caused a fight of mass proportions, though it was ended quickly by Winry's wrench and Riza's gun.

Al recieved a miniature set of armour, a set of kitten bookmarks and some alchemy books.

Den was given a new blanket and a toy.

Riza acquired a new set of bullets, and a flat pack aiming board.

Roy obtained new gloves, six water bottles (from Ed - you can gussied how this was taken )

And of course, everyone got chocolates and a couple of licks in the face from Den.



Winry studied Ed as he opened his presents and watched others open theirs. His face had always fascinated her - Ed had developed layers of expression in his face, and she could read all of them, given a bit of time.

There was some sad there, mixed in with the happiness,as well as anger and frustration. The anger was probably directed at Mustang, and the frustration was, she estimated, that he couldn't beat Roy up. Winry had no idea why the sadness was there, but she had more worrying things on her mind now. In that cocktail of emotions, there was an awful lot of physical pain, hidden under the umbrella that sat on the side of the cocktail glass.

Al seemed to see it too; he was studying Ed as well as her. Suddenly, Ed looked up to see absolutely everybody in the room watching him.

"What, is it Stare At Ed day? Snap out of it, people! You're starting to freak me out..."

At this, Roy pulled a weird face and leaned in close to Ed, without blinking.

Ed shoved him, and they started arguing, then full-blown fighting again.



Winry snuck into the kitchen with Al as soon as she got the chance, taking her new pie dishes with her. As she began to bake, they talked about Ed and about what everyone had received, having a good time laughing at Ed and Roy's presents to each other, and their reactions to them.

"You saw it too, didn't you?" Al asked nervously, helping he'd mix the ingredients. "The pain in Ed's face?"

Winry pursed her lips. "Yep," she said. "And I reckon there's way we can force him to tell us. Now, help me and open the oven..."
