Kansaki Sou - One Month [KenshinEd]
Title: One Month
Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist, Rurouni Kenshin
AU: Mashup
Characters/Pairing: Winry, Kenshin/Ed
Rating: T
Length: 322
Summary:
Winry Rockbell was really not quite sure what to think of the strange man Edward brought into their home. Oh, he was nice enough - just a touch taller than Edward, an open, easy smile and painfully polite to both her and Alphonse - but he was a complete stranger to them both. She didn’t quite understand - Edward’s chattering of the world beyond where he had been these past almost nine years, now - but this man came from that world with him, hand clasped firmly in Edward’s and a fierce protectiveness in his eyes that she had only ever seen in Ed’s own.
He was so different than Edward - quiet and reserved, unless he was arguing in a good-natured manner across the dinner table at Edward, but the house that had seemed so big when they were all so much younger was a lot smaller now, and she would catch them, side-by-side washing the dishes, shoulders touching as if they didn’t want to step out of the others’ personal space. They were connected in a way she never thought Edward of all people would EVER be, and while no comment had ever actually been made on the rings they wore, the meaning behind them was clear.
How could Edward be so very much the same as she remembered, as yet be entirely different at the same time? It was completely baffling.
They weren’t planning to stay long - it was just that they had nowhere else to go, while the military sorted out whether Edward was going to get any back pay for disappearing while still on the military’s dime, and in Edward’s own words, he just wanted Kenshin to get used to the new world that they were going to make their home together in.
