Edward x Envy (A Full Story)

Chapter 15

Winry's POV:

I'm not sure why, but Ed's been acting strange around me. Well, I do know why, but he wouldn't admit it.

I feel so guilty for being jealous of him. He's totally happy in his relationship. I wouldn't do anything to spare his happiness.
It's just that, it should be me.

Not to mention, a strange lady has been following me. I'm pretty sure she's connected to Ed or Envy or whatever.
It all started on that one night.
In all honesty, I think she's flirting with me. I don't even know her name.

Today, I'm heading back home from East City.
As I've mentioned, Ed and Al only see me as a liability.
Of course, once at the train station I run into the lady.

"Hello, Winry." She whispers.

"May I ask what you want from me? I'm not gay or anything, sorry to disappoint."

"We'll see about that..." She speaks so quietly I almost didn't catch it.

"I have a train to catch. If you don't mind-"

"Actually, I'll be coming with you." The lady announces.

I bounce back a little.
"Who even are you. I don't want you coming with me."
I begin to run, but she stops me.

"You're making this harder than it has to be, Winry."

"It's not my fault an attractive lady is trying to follow me home. Maybe if I knew what's going on, I'd cooperate."

She sighs.
"Fine. I wished to seduce you."

Simple as that?
"At my own house?" I question.

"Quite possibly"

"How are you connected to Ed? You're a homunculus, right?"

"That is correct. Ed is one of the biggest threats to our... uh... plans. There's been a certain deal including Edward and my wish to charm you."

That was unexpected. A deal?
"Tell me more..." I ask.

"First, we must board the train."

-

The ride isn't long, but it's just enough for Lust to explain everything. She told me her name, by the way.

"And you're sure Ed didn't agree with this firsthand?" I ask.
I certainly hope not.

"He was not in agreeance ." She rolls her eyes.

It's true, I've been talking about Ed this whole time.
It's not exactly profiting her goal of winning me over.

"I'm sorry, Lust. I'm attracted to one person only."
I'm not sure why I feel the need to apologize. She's the one who made a crazy deal involving me. I probably just don't want to get on her bad side.

Once the train arrives, she heads in the opposite direction of myself.

"I'll see you soon." She whispers, barely audible.
