Winry opened the door to their bedroom and peeked inside, then sighed and closed the door behind her. "Ed?" She asked softly, waiting for her eyes to adjust to the darkness of the room before she tried to move forward. "Are you awake?"

"Mmm, yeah, I am," Ed murmured, rolling over to face Winry.

Winry sat down on the bed next to him and reached out to run her fingers through his hair. "I came to see how you are," she said softly.

[flamel_hawk]

"I'm fine," he said softly, "Just a bit tired."

[no_girlsallowed]

Winry nodded and slid her hand down to massage his neck gently. "Is there anything I can do?"

[flamel_hawk]

"Just be here," he said, lifting his head to lay it Winry's lap.

"Of course I'll be here," Winry whispered, smoothing his hair back from his forehead.

"I guess I just have my old man left, as far as parents go," Ed whispered.

Winry sighed and moved her hand down to rub his back. "At least he's still here, though, right?"

[flamel_hawk]

"Yeah, but he's getting on in years," Ed said, sighing softly, "I hope he wasn't just hanging on for Teacher's sake."

[no_girlsallowed]

"He'll hold on for you and Julian, too," Winry whispered, stroking his cheek.

[flamel_hawk]

"If anything happens to him, we'll take care of Julian," Ed said softly.
