Ed's POV
I looked at Mustang as he finished explaining. We made eye contact before I shrugged. "Well, everything that happened is in the past now, so I wouldn't worry about it honestly." I replied. Mustang looked at me with wide eyes. "That's it.....? That's how you reply?" He questioned. "Well yeah. What do you want me to do? Yell at you or something?" I asked him. He face palmed. "Why do I even bother...." He muttered. I chuckled a bit in reply. "Oh yeah. Hey Ed? Can I ask you something?" Mustang suddenly asked. I nodded. "Sure." I replied. "Back when we found Hughes.....you stopped calling me Mustang, and called me Roy...." He began. A blush spread across my cheeks. "I-I did.....?!" I replied. Mustang laughed softly and nodded. "We-Well, um, s-sorry about tha-that...." I apologized quietly. I felt a hand on my head. "It's fine Ed. You can call me Roy if you want you know." He chuckled. I nodded. "Okay." I replied, smiling softly. He stood up and grabbed some files. "Well, now that that's over and done with, we have to find Hughes, and we have some more research to do." Roy stated. I sighed and nodded. "Well, hand me Hughes file." I suggested. He nodded and passed it to me. I flipped it open.
Name: Maes Hughes
Age: 29
Background: Maes is married to Gracia Hughes, and together they have a daughter named Elicia. Seven years ago, Hughes was severely injured on a mission and had to be hospitalized.
I sighed and looked at Roy. "Nothing exactly helpful here..." I sighed. He sighed as well. "Well, I guess we continue looking....?" He replied. "Wait a minute!" I exclaimed, an idea suddenly popping into my head. "Hm? What is it?" Roy questioned. "What if Hughes connects to Envy? When I found you and him, he seemed pretty envious of you and Strong Arm....." I explained, hoping my theory was indeed correct. "Yeah, that would make sense...." Roy replied. "But then....if Hughes has felt like that this whole time, didn't we have a false friendship then.....?" He added, frowning a bit. I put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry Roy. I'm sure your friendship with Hughes is true. He's saved you before on missions right?" I asked. Roy nodded. "Yeah, too many times to count." He replied. I smiled brightly at him. "Then he must be your friend. If he never saved you, that would've proven to be a false friendship. So don't worry about."
Roy's POV
Hearing Ed says those words to me, made me really happy for some reason. Then I noticed something. This is the first time....I really see Ed smiling happily at me. I liked his smile. And I have no idea why. But, I couldn't help but smile back. "Yeah, your right. Thanks Ed."
