Summary: Roy remembers a phone call he'd rather forget.
Warnings: None
He’d never forget.
The icy dread that shot through his veins from the first shrill ring of the phone. The way his hand stilled above the receiver as some unheard yet felt voice told him he didn’t want to answer it.
He had let the phone ring six and a half times before he could force his hand to pick it up.
The frantic voice. The panic. The fear.
The man’s deep-felt anxiety of having to deliver such news.
Lieutenant Colonel Maes Hughes had been found dead.
It took Roy’s soul several minutes to quit screaming so he could speak.
It’s ironic how my last kiss from Richie was exactly like the first.
Hurried, frantic and over before it really began.
The true difference being the urgency of the first was brought on by Richie’s nerves and my density. I still can’t believe the one person I spent the most time with and adored above all others never crossed my mind as a love interest.
The circumstances that drove the last one was much more dire and final in a way I wish I could forget.
A single shot… him falling like a stone… before one last bittersweet kiss goodbye.
Beast Boy didn’t know what to make of it when he first saw it.
Sneaking into Robin’s room when his leader was out brooding was a favorite pastime of his. One of the many benefits to being able to become smaller than cameras could detect.
But of all things, him finding what he found never would have crossed his mind.
Robin, the mini Batman himself, had a box. Not full of weapon blueprints or new battle tactics but comic books. Comics like the sort found in most teenagers rooms and it made him smile.
They weren’t so different after all.
They made it.
After three long years filled with whispers from their friends, explanations of how their love worked for them and the not so hidden looks from those around them, they had made it.
Through the grief, sorrow, struggles and pain they had persevered and here they were.
As the organ started to play an all too classic tune, as friends and family alike rose to their feet, the veiled beauty of his wife to be began taking the last few steps she’d ever make as Riza Hawkeye.
Because when she turned around, she would be Mrs. Edward Elric.
He should have taken Kaede up on her offer to help.
But he hadn’t wanted to. If she had done this it would have defeated the whole point.
However, as he looked at the lopsided fruits of his labor he couldn’t help but feel the batter in his hair and the trashed kitchen might have all been in vain.
Sucking it up like a big boy, Inuyasha did his best to level the thing with icing before picking up the piping bag and writing as carefully as claws allowed.
It was Bankotsu’s birthday and this cake came from the heart.

Date: 2012-07-28 11:57 pm (UTC)I think they would deserve it after all they'd have to endure to get to that point.
I suddenly want to write a fic where Roy doesn't take to kindly to Ed snagging his woman...
