(A/N) It's been awhile since I did something simple. A cute, funny oneshot. What I used to thrive on. I haven't ever done a 'collection of oneshots' kind of thing and I figured I'm always up for EdXWinry fluff, so why not? This first one is just kind of random. Enjoy.

How Many Postulates Does a Girl Really Need?

I traced his every feature with my eyes, his long blonde hair looked so soft. Only inches away from me, if only I could reach out and feel it's texture.

Of course I'd felt it before, braided it even, but recently the desire to seemed... And this was just viewing him from the back. Watching him face to face that long and I thought my brain would melt into girlish goo.

I sighed and inhaled a little. Not close enough to smell him, damn. I'd heard from several girls about how wonderful the smell of their boyfriends hair was, or how some cute guy in their class wore sexy cologne.

Not that I expected Edward to wear cologne, I knew he hated the smell of that stuff, and I wasn't too fond of it myself. But did he use scented shampoo? Such silly thoughts, I reminded myself not to get too carried away.

I shivered. It felt as though something was getting closer to me. Probably that guy behind me who I repeatedly have to remind that I don't like people breathing down my neck... I shuddered.

He'd always get awkwardly close to me, maybe he was doing what I was doing to Edward..? But it was different for me, Ed and I were friends, so I could do that... right? I argued with myself until I came to the conclusion that it was alright because I'd known Ed all my life, and the kid behind me had only known me for a semester and a half.

"...bell..." I could hear something going on and I suddenly realized where I was. I sat up a bit and decided to actually listen to- SMACK! The teacher slammed her hand down in front of me. "Miss Rockbell!" she said in her irritating tone.

"Eh?!" was all I could respond with, as my mind was still processing what was going on. "Miss Rockbell," she repeated "can you answer the question?"

My heart was pounding as I could feel Ed's eyes watching me... those golden eyes... "Miss Rockbell..." ...those gorgeous amber eyes... "Are you listening?"

"Gold." I managed to blurt out, finally focusing my vision on the teacher. "Excuse me?" she raised her penciled on eyebrow.

"The atomic weight for gold is-" "I'm sorry," she interrupted me, "but this is math, not science." As soon as I was sure she was turned around, walking towards the front of the classroom, I stuck my tongue out at her.

She just loved to embarrass students. The only advantage of being a teacher, I guess. That and getting the summers off.

I was thankful, though, that she'd cut off my sentence. I wasn't really sure what the atomic weight for gold was and I knew if I'd gotten it wrong, Ed would remind me later.

I knew I should pay attention during class, but really, geometry had gotten boring in the latter part of the year. How many postulates does a girl really need?

I also tried to distract myself from short and sexy in front of me, so I observed what everyone else was doing. I was relieved to note that hardly anyone else was paying attention, like me, they were concerning themselves with other matters.

However, unlike me, they weren't being totally obvious about it.

A boy doodling all over his homework, several girls passing notes, some people in the back sharing potato chips, and of course those who are rushing to finish their work they'd have to turn in next period.

Something sparked in my mind, and I was suddenly curious about what Edward might be doing...

I quickly looked over his shoulder to see what he was writing... Brrring, brrring, brrrrring. The suddenly ringing of the telephone made me nearly leap out of my seat. My pulse slowed a bit, as the teacher pick up the phone and the whole classroom began talking.

I watched Ed's every motion as he turned around to face me. "What's with you?" he laughed, "You're not even taking chemistry this year, still in biology right?" he smirked.

Ignoring his cute smile, I rolled my eyes, "Well sorry, mister science geek, but I'm... distracted..."

"Yeah I noticed.", he said leaning his head to the side, and resting it on his hand, "Too much caffeine this morning?"

I laughed, "Noooooo..." I was in the mood to tease him, make him feel like I knew something he didn't.

"Oh so you must be thinking of that secret boyfriend of yours, right?" he said sarcastically. "What?" I replied, with a hint of innocence, "Are you jealous?"

"Ahem."

I groaned as I turned to see who was interrupting us. The teacher. Of course. I quickly figured out it my mind that apparently, the call had ended abruptly and Ed and I were the only ones that didn't notice.

"If you don't mind, I'd like you to conduct your flirting outside of my classroom." she said in a snooty tone. "Yeah, whatever.." I mumbled, hoping the menopausal bitch didn't here me.

Lucky me, she did. "Excuse me?" Part of me wanted to yell 'You heard me, beeyatch!', but I refrained. "Would you like to stand in the hall?"

Actually I did, but I knew that wasn't the answer she was looking for. I opened my mouth to respond but someone else spoke in a low voice. "I know I do..." his soothing voice calmed my nerves, even if that comment was probably meant not to be heard.

"That's it!" she clenched her fists, "Both of you, out in the hall!"

My heart raced as I slowly drug myself out of the classroom. I was going to be standing, alone, with Ed next to me. What kind of punishment was that?

When he shut the door behind him, I asked curiously "Why'd you say that? Did you WANT to push her off the edge?"

"Well," he explained "it was partially my fault you got in trouble, and I was getting bored with just sitting in there, and there's something I've been meaning to ask you anyway."

Actually it was ALL his fault I was getting in trouble, he was the reason I was so distracted. Not that I'd tell him that. Wait... did he say he had to ask me something? My heart was pounding at an alarming rate.

Was he going to ask if I liked him? Had I made it that obvious? Or was he going to ask me to... My breathing was a bit unsteady as I managed the word, "What?"

"Can I copy your English homework?"

I blinked. THAT was what I was getting myself worked up about? I mentally burst into a fit of giggles, and tried to suppress my smile at the same time. "Yeah, sure." It was all I could take not to start laughing at myself. I was pathetic.

"Are you okay?" he looked at me funny, but why wouldn't he? Who thinks English homework is funny? "Just taking things slowly..." I said aloud.

"What?" he looked at me even more confused. "Nothing," I smiled softly.

(A/N) That was rather random, but it was fun to write so it's okay. -smiles- Did you like it? Reviews are appreciated. More EdxWinry oneshots to come. You can even suggest something if you want. Anyway, it's 1:30am and I need sleep... (actually I just want to play more Final Fantasy X) Bye!
