Ummm, wow. You guys are crazy! I received so much wonderful feedback that I had to write a sequel of some sort. I have to thank all of you for being so kind. I thought I'd modify how Edward's proposal would go, just a teeny bit. Anyways, I hope you like this as much as the first one.

"Make sure you oil it every day!"

"Right."

"Check for loose screws!

"Right."

"Make sure you wipe it off really good after bathing!"

"Yeah, yeah."

"Are you even listening?" Winry exclaimed to Edward. The two sat at the station, waiting for the arrival of Edward's train. Winry was upset to learn that he was leaving so soon after telling, or rather showing, her the good news of the brothers getting their bodies back. It felt like that had just arrived and now, so soon, they were leaving.

"Yep…" Edward replied in an uninterested tone. Suddenly, the train rolled into the station, earning a small frustrated groan from Winry. "Oh! The train's here!" Edward called happily. He turned to her and, grinning, chuckled lightly.

"I'm looking forward to it! It's exciting thinking about what awaits me out west!" He told her. Winry smiled and gave a small sigh.

"With that attitude, you'll probably break your armor as soon as you leave." She sulked.

"So? That's more money for you." He retorted a little snootily.

"I'm thinking of you!" Winry huffed at his retreating figure.

"Yeah, yeah. Thanks for your concern." He said half-heartedly.

"And call and make an appointment when you need adjustments." She said, suddenly feeling worried for him.

"Will do." He replied. She knew, of course, that he wouldn't. He would just arrive at her doorstep with a busted up auto mail leg., that she would gladly fix if need be. He suddenly stopped and turned to her.

"An appointment?" He said this as more of a statement than a question, as though trying to find the right words. Winry stared at him, confused. The train let out a puff of smoke, signaling that it was waiting for its passengers.

"Winry!" He suddenly exclaimed. She stared at him, perplexed. "Uh…um…How do I say this? Er…Like, an appointment. Or a promise. Right?" Winry frowned at him, bemused by his stammering.

"Just spit it out." She prompted. He pouted, searching for the right words.

"Equivalent Exchange." He finally said, agreeing that this was the right direction to go if he was going to ask her the question he had been dying to ask. The laws of alchemy were what he knew best, after all.

"I'll give you half of my life. So give me half of yours!" He exclaimed nervously. Winry stared at him, shell-shocked. The two stood in silence, the wind fluttering gently while Edward blushed profusely. Winry slammed both hands on the side of the train and sighed in frustration, sagging slightly.

"Argh, why are alchemists like this? What kind of idiot are you going on about the law of equivalent exchange?" She asked, incredulous.

"What!" Edward yelled anxiously. He briefly wondered if she was saying no to his question. Her next few words made his heart stop.

"You really are dumb. You want half? I'll give you all of it." The duo stood in silence; Edward shocked and Winry embarrassed.

"…Oh! M-Maybe not all of it, ninety percent…No, eighty percent? I guess. Seventy percent…no, more than that. Eighty-five percent maybe." While Winry rambled on uselessly about how much of her life she wanted to give Edward, he had recovered from his stupefied state and started to laugh, first small chuckles that turned into full blown laughter. Winry blushed as he clutched his stomach, continuing to laugh.

"What?" She asked, half angry, half embarrassed.

"Sorry, sorry. You really are something!" He managed between giggles. He suddenly ceased laughing and grinned at her. "I'm going to overturn the laws of equivalent exchange." He announced proudly. Winry didn't understand.

"Huh? What're you talking about? Are you making fun of me?" She asked worriedly. He patted her head fondly. Suddenly, he pulled her into a hug.

"No. You cheered me up, thanks. See you later." He said. Winry stood, shocked, but eventually relaxed and returned the hug.

"…Yeah." She replied. She suddenly giggled. Edward looked down at her, a smile playing at his lips.

"What?" He asked. She looked up at him and grinned.

"You're taller than me." She stated. Edward nodded at her obvious statement, confused.

"So?" He asked.

"Remember that time, when we were all little and you and Al were fighting over who would get to marry me? What was my reasoning for saying I wouldn't marry you or Alphonse?" Edward grinned down at her.

"I'm taller than you." He stated and pressed his lips softly to her forehead. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his lips softly. The kiss was short but sweet, expressing all her love for him. They broke apart and blushed. Winry released her hold on him and stepped back.

"See you later." She whispered, staring up at him, her eyes sparkling. He walked away from her and into the train, but not before grinning at her and giving her a thumbs up. The train's whistle screeched loudly, an announcement that it was read to leave. Suddenly, a woman who lived nearby the station came up to her. Winry knew the woman, Nancy, fairly well, seeing as how she talked to Pinako often.

"Huh? First Alphonse-kun, now Edward-kun is leaving, too? Those two should settle down for a while." She chided. Winry smiled.

"This is what's best for them." She reasoned. She turned to watch the train roll away from the station.

"Besides, a guy who just sits around is boring." She said with a smile, saying it more to herself than to the older woman. She watched the train roll away until it was no longer visible. She waved goodbye to Nancy, turned, and began the walk home.

"Maybe I'll make him an apple pie when he gets home." She said, giggling to herself. An overwhelming feeling of giddiness shot through her at the thought of Edward coming home and starting a life with her. It would be awhile before he came home, but Winry was a patient woman who could busy herself with auto mail related subjects until that day came, the promised day when she could call Edward 'husband.'

Very sugary! That is my gift to you all. Keep it up, and I might have to make more. *wink*
