Riza took another deep breath. She was listening to Roy stumble over his words, trying to take them back, yet still leaving the offer of a kiss open.
She stepped forward, lifting her face. She pressed her lips to his, effectively stopping the rambling words. She closed her eyes.
She felt a hand on her cheek. A thumb stroking her jaw. A hand made it's way to her waist, holding her and drawing her ever so slightly closer to him.

Roy shut his eyes, his initial shock of the kiss disappearing. He moved one of his hands to Riza's face, gently stroking her jaw. His other hand fell to her waist, holding her close like a precious jewel.
He pressed his tongue to her lip, asking for entrance. She accepted, her tongue slowly coming to meet his. Their tongues danced for a moment, causing both their hearts to flutter.
He pulled back, his breath short, to look at Riza.

Riza felt his tongue touch her lower lip and slowly parted her lips. His tongue danced with hers before he pulled back to look at her. Both of them were breathing heavily, their breath catching between them.
Riza gazed at Roy, his eyes looking into hers. She smiled at him. "Thank you."
"No problem. Happy to comply." Roy said smiling back.
Riza stepped back, placing her hand on the door.
"Well, I guess I'll see you later, Riza..."
"Yeah, later." Riza said, her eyes holding his gaze.

She slipped into her apartment, leaving Roy out wishing she was still there.
He turned, his hand moving to the back of his head to grasp his hair. Grinning, he bit his lip, still able to feel Riza's lips pressed to his own.
He spun around, looking back at Riza's door. He was almost considering knocking on her door, then getting on one knee and asking her to become Mrs. Mustang right then.
"How does she do this to me?" He wondered as he tried back around and down to his vehicle.

Riza shut the door behind her leaning against it. She did it. She kissed Roy. And loved it. She bit her lip, grinning as her head fell against the door with a light thump, which blended right in with the thumps of her dogs tail against the floor.
She let out a sigh, her stomach filled with joyous butterflies.
She bent to remove her shoes, pulling them off one at a time. First the right, then the left. Holding them in a hand she walked to her room, Black Hayate following her. Walking past the living room she glanced in, smiling as she remembered the start to their evening.
She pulled her hair out of the French twist, which was slightly messed up due to the occurrence on the street, and also the semi passionate kiss they had shared. She ran a brush through her hair, then removed her makeup.
Slipping off the dress, she pulled on a large T-shirt. Then hopping in bed she pat the covers, inviting Black Hayate to join her. He hopped up, only for his face to be grabbed and his face showered in kisses.
"He kissed me! He kissed me, boy! And you know, I think he really like me!"
Black Hayate wiggled his rear, his mistresses excitement carrying over to him. He moved his front paws and then licked her face, returning a kiss. Then the pup barked happily at her, then continued to wiggle in joy.
Riza let go of his face with a laugh, using the back of her hand to wipe his slobber off of her face. She then threw herself backwards, her body bouncing for a moment as her hair spread around her.
Her dog took a step or so forward, then curled up next to her contentedly.
Smiling at him, Riza and Black Hayate both fell asleep.

Roy walked away from Riza's door. He couldn't stop smiling. He spun around, touched his fingers to his lips with a grin. He glanced at the door, half tempted to knock on her door, get on one knee, and just ask for her hand in marriage right then and there.
Spinning back around to go down the stairs, he took them two at a time. Reaching the bottom, he did a small dance. His heart was still racing, his mind still slightly boggled.
Walking over to his car, he stood outside of it and took a calming breath, willing himself to calm down before entering the vehicle and driving. Shaking his head, he hopped in, then inserted the key confidently. The car came to life, the engine purring.
He pulled out onto the street, the lights of other cars whizzing past him on the left lane. Driving home, he couldn't stop thinking about the kiss. Her smooth lips, the feeling of her tongue, her hair, the way her body was against him. Everything. Heaven.
He wove in and out of traffic smoothly, stopping at the occasional stop light or making an occasional turn. He quickly arrived at his home where he pulled into his driveway.
Once the car was off, he sat there in the car just enjoying his memories of that evening. Despite the one small incident of being held at gunpoint, it was all almost dreamlike.
He opened the door to his car, quickly getting out and bounding up the front stairs to his home. He unlocked the door and let himself in. Then dropped his keys in a small dish he had by his door.
Walking upstairs, he realized how big and empty his home was. Maybe he should ask Riza to marry him. Then they could share it.
Walking into the bedroom, he took off his shirt, pants, and shoes. "Hm. Seems like I forgot to get my jacket back from Riza... I'll have to pick it up tomorrow."
Deciding to go a head and hop in bed, he went to the bathroom, rinsed his face, brushed his teeth, then went back to the bedroom and slipped beneath the covers.
A small meow came from the side of his bed. Blaze. It was the small orange kitten given to him a few months ago by Alphones in celebration of his promotion to general after the war.
"Come on up, boy." He pat the bed, inviting the creature to share his bed and warmth. The cat hopped nimbly up, making almost no sound on the soft comforter.
Mewling, it stroked it's body across Roy's face, asking to be pet. Chuckling, Roy complied by running his hand over it's back. Now content for the time, Blaze flopped down and quickly fell to slumber.
"I think I'll follow suit."
Roy fell asleep, dreams of Riza and a possible future making it a very pleasant night.
A/N: Well, there it was! I have a ton more fics planned, but I won't be starting anything for at least a month.
Anyway, if you think a sequle is a good idea, let me know! And for the usual stuff, please review and let me know what you think!
