"He's nice," she explained to Spencer, meaning Hughes. "He helped me get out of that place full of guns where I woke up. And I think he's friends with somebody really really smart and trustworthy, so he must be good." Because in her eyes, anyone that was friends with Roy Mustang was beyond reproach.

"I take care of all the cooking and housework, too. Father's research is so important he forgets that kind of thing most of the time. But it isn't so bad. Cooking is kind of fun." Cleaning, on the other hand, is extremely boring but someone has to do it.
She hesitates as he gets up, trying to decide whether or not to follow him. She decides to stay put, ultimately, in case his getting up is partially in an effort to get away from her for a minute. She wouldn't deny him that.

Perhaps this wouldn't be so bad after all, he already felt that he had a friend in Riza, even though he never really had friends before. It wasn't often he could find someone to talk to that wasn't put off by his mind, or find someone who understood what it was like to become an adult much to early for their age.
When he gets up to go look, he takes a couple of steps before stopping and glancing over his shoulder, curious as to if she was following him or not. He wouldn't blame her if she didn't want to, he knew that he could be a bit burdensome at times, after all, his own father didn't want to deal with him, why would anyone else?
Finally, after a moment, he hesitantly asks, "... did you want to come? Maybe we could find something to eat too."

She nodded. "Mr Hughes said there would be ice cream at least."

"I know him a little. He seems really nice. He's a friend of Mr Mustang, so I'm sure he's all right."

"If you think so," he said, trying to let her know that he trusted her opinion. He stopped by the table where some of the food was spread out, looking over the selections, before turning back to Riza, before pulling her forward so that she could get a better look.

She took the last step up to the table when he gave her a tug and looked over the food. She hadn't ever really seen this much food in once place before, never really having gone to a party or anything of that sort before. She looked at Spencer first, as if waiting for some cue, before reaching out with the hand not holding his to take a little peach out of a fruit bowl.

In a way, he reflected in the back part of his mind, it almost felt like she was his little sister, but he didn't understand why he would be thinking that when he had only known her for a few days by this point. Maybe it was because they were both all alone and had banded together? He couldn't be sure, but it was certainly worth looking into later on.
