Hiiiiiiii everyone! Probably thought I was dead, didn't you? :P

I apologize for all the late updates. You see, I'm starting to get a little...unmotivated. (_ _||) But I started this story, so I will see it to the end. ^_^

Chapter 15. Enjoy! Oh really important. I'm now gonna refer to Ed as 'she' rather than 'he' since Ed's in a girl's body.


Ed exhaled in an aggravated sigh as she plopped down onto the cough. Now that she didn't have to go to work, the hours of the day passed by extremely slowly. Of course, Al kept Ed company for the most part, but now the young teen couldn't piss off her superior.

She placed a hand on her stomach and leaned her head back. "Man, I wish this little guy would hurry up and come out. Pregnancies aren't very fun..." she muttered.

"Nii-san, I'm back." Al called from the door as he entered.

Ed smiled and sat up a little straighter. "Oh hey Al, welcome back." A pause. "So..."

Al hung his head down low. "Sorry Nii-san, but they were out of apples at the market."

Ed's face fell and she looked with a slightly depressed expression. "They were out? H-how in the hell do you run out of stock for apples?"

"Well, I can get some at the convenience store." Al offered.

Ed shook her head. "If they're not the sweet, juicy apples from the market, then I don't want any."

"Err, okay." Al replied. "So how far along are you?"

"Hn? Oh uh..." Ed looked down at her stomach. "Well, I should be about three months now."

"I thought you had a weekly check-up with your doctor?"

"Eh, it's not until a few days. Lemme get some sleep."

"Alright. Night Nii-san."

"Yeah..." Ed then suddenly blinked. "Actually Al, could you do me a favor?"

"What is it?"

"Could you massage my back? It hurts like hell."

"Yeah sure. Lie on your stomach for me?"


That next morning, Ed had decided to go into Roy's room. She raided the man's fridge, taking out eggs and several other items. Hands full, she clamped a bag of shredded cheese between her teeth. She waddled over to the counter and placed the items. She opened the cupboard above the sink and stretched, attempting to reach the large mixing bowl up top. She whined in protest as her finger accidentally pushed the bowl further back. She was about to get a stool when an arm wrapped around her waist, another hand reaching up to grab the bowl.

"You need this?" Roy asked softly.

Ed took the bowl from Roy. "Yeah, yeah, you're tall. No need to rub it in." she pouted as she pinched her lips.

Roy chuckled. "You're too cute, Ed."

Ed stared at Roy in disbelief. "Wh-what? I can't be cute; I'm a guy for crying out loud! … Er, I was..."

"So what are you making?" Roy asked, pressing his lips to the crook of the teen's neck.

"O-omelets..." she replied with a blush.

"It was nice of you to come over this morning. I'll enjoy sharing your delicious breakfast with you."

Ed lightly slapped Roy's shoulder. "Shut up, jerk. You know my cooking skills are limited to instant noodles and omelets."

"I love Ed's eggs." Roy whispered softly.

"Don't you dare make this into a sexual innuendo."

"I wasn't."

"Uh-huh, sure you weren't pervert. I know how that mind of yours works up there. So any special requests?"

"Hmm, not really. A lot of shredded cheese would be nice."

"Okie-dokie. I'm putting some ham too."

"Alright." said Roy, leaving Ed to take a seat at the table.

"Do you want mushrooms and peppers and tomatoes on your omelet?"

"Yeah sure."

"Onions?"

"Sure."

"Sugar?"

A slight pause. "Alright..."

"Chocolate sauce and jelly?"

"What?"

Ed turned around with a huff. "You heard me; chocolate sauce and jelly."

"On an omelet?"

"Well, duh. When it dribbles off the sides of the toast and falls onto the omelet, I think it tastes pretty damn good." He frowned at Roy's perplexed expression. "Pfft, fine then, I won't give any to you Mr. Bastard. That's just more for me!"

Roy chuckled from his seat at the table. "Your cravings just get more interesting each day."

"Shut up and wait for your food like a good old man."

"Hey, I'm not that old. I'm a young man in his late twenties at most."

"Compared to me, you're like a dinosaur."

"Ed~!"


Well...Sorry for such a short chapter. This is about the best I can do after a long break. I need to get back into it again, so sorry ._.,
