Summary: Edward awoke to the persistent drizzle of a dismal spring morning.



Edward awoke to the persistent drizzle of a dismal spring morning. He could hear the rain drumming against the roof and dripping down against the window - the room was that murky gray color of dawn struggling through the heavy rain clouds. 

Roy snorted a little as Edward rolled over, curling against him for warmth. The rain had brought a chill to the air, and Edward shivered, automail hand tucked under his side so that Roy was not directly exposed to its metal. He couldn’t fall back asleep, although the rain made him drowsy, sleep seemed far out of his grasp - and as it was past dawn he should really be up and getting the hearth going anyway. 

It was comforting though, lying here next to Roy, watching the rise and fall of his chest as he slept. It had been so long since Roy had nightmares that watching him sleep had returned to being a pleasurable thing to do. 

Roy was still a light sleeper, though, so if Edward touched him, he would likely awaken. Edward pillowed his own head on his automail arm and smiled, closing his eyes. He might be smaller than Roy, but Roy was his to protect, and for good reason. 

The soft trill of far-off birdsong cut through the sound of rain. The birds did not let dreary weather affect their day all that much, and Edward should be much the same. However, it was Roy who shifted before Edward did, rolling up on his side and pinning Edward’s fleshy pink wrist to the bed. 

“You’re up early,” Roy rumbled, his eyes barely open, just the faintest bits of dark pupil visible through his lashes. Edward tilted his head back defiantly, so Roy forcefully tilted his jaw down and kissed him. “Morning, love.”
