The beeping of the life-support machine and the hiss of the ventilator were the only noises in the room; she'd been here before, but never as one looking in - if only she'd been faster...
Goodbye
He hugged her just as tight as she held him as the world collapsed into light around them: this was only a good-bye, never a farewell.
Middleman
The first sign that Envy's relationship with France wasn't going well was that her brother practically flounced in one day and threw himself melodramatically onto her poor old couch; she ferried notes between the two of them for 13 days before she threw a box of chocolates at Envy's head and told him to man up.
Winter
He noticed that she got jumpy in winter, starting at the slightest strange sound - almost as though she was being hunted, but he shook it off and tried to forget it (one day he would ask, and one day he would find out, but that day was not yet here, and so he tried to wipe the little girl with the knowing eyes from his mind).
FMA; Havoc/Winry
Pie
He didn't miss the way her eyes glistened when she set the apple pie down on the table, so he pulled her close , threading his fingers into her hair - Gracia's special recipe could wait until the memories had subsided again.
Smoking
It was a secret, and no one could ever find out (most especially Jean, he'd never stop teasing), but sometimes at sunset, when everything was painted into sharp relief, the sight of him sitting in the last rays of the sun, smoke curling silently into the sky - well, he was a very handsome man.
Firsts
Watching the road outside, she hadn't noticed him stand, but when a warm and solid weight settled over her back, and his head settled onto her shoulder did she realise what happened; he grinned at her expression of shock, and kissed her in triumph - all that rehab had been totally worth it.
