Life rushes by you in the leather seats of the train. Hours turn into days, days into weeks. Three books, one message ingrained on your wrist. You're prepared to die. Edward knows the expression on your face, he's seen it on his brother for years on end. With each trip he makes on the train he gets closer and closer to you and all the more aware that he cannot save you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a fanfiction based off the anime Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, as such I do not own the original plot. For that thank Hiromu Arakawa
