60CHAPTER 2
Hi everyone! I'm so happy I got 3 reviews! Thank you for reading this. OK now onto this chapter.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist but I do own Maggie!
"Maggie!" Al called to his niece. Her eyes opened slowly and focused around the room.
"Hi, where am I?" She asked with a small smile. She was sitting on the floor of Alphonse's room.
" Hey, shorty. You're in my room, which you're not supposed to be in," he stated with a laugh.
"Hey, I'm not short!" Maggie said pouting her face. "Oh, yeah. Daddy said you were sleeping," she said scratching her head. " But then I saw a light coming from in here and, well, curiosity got the better of me! So what were you doing up?" Maggie asked looking straight in her uncle's eyes.
Alphonse moved around on his spot on the floor, trying to find an answer. " Uh, well, just nothing," he tried with a sheepish grin.
Maggie thought it over in her small blonde head. ' If it was nothing then Daddy wouldn't have told me not to come in here and there wouldn't have been that blinding light!' Maggie thought. ' It can be nothing…'
" OK! Well, please don't tell daddy I came on here. Thanks, bye!" Maggie said and hopped up to her feet and left the room. Her golden locks were the last Al saw of her.
" Well, I'm glad she bought it," Al said to himself with a huge sweat drop. " Sometimes she's as dense as her father," Al laughed and went over to his desk. He coughed as he opened the second drawer. He took out all of his Alchemy books that he stuffed in there and placed them on the floor. He then shut the door and began doing what he was doing before Maggie came in.
" I wonder what uncle Al is up to…" Maggie said as she finished her homework. " Then again, it would be bad if I peeked in on him and daddy would get mad if he found out I was spying on him," she sighed. ' But I really want to know! I guess I'll have to do it in secret then…' Maggie snickered to herself and went downstairs.
' I wonder if it's some deep, dark, family secret! That would be cool.' She walked into the kitchen and saw her dad on the phone.
She went over to fridge and got a glass of juice without looking inside. She was looking at her dad. He had on a stressed face and his bangs covered his golden eyes. ' I wonder whom daddy's talking to?' she thought as she chugged down the glass of juice.
Edward hung up the phone, sighed and sat down. ' How am I supposed to tell Maggie?' He looked up and saw Maggie staring at him and drinking something.
" Hey, Maggie. I thought you said you didn't like milk?" he said trying to stifle a laugh.
"That's right! Why?" she asked curiously as she put the half finished glass down at the table. She took a seat across from Ed.
" Well, you just drank it," he said letting the laugh free now.
Her eyes widened and her mouth dropped as she looked down at the glass before her. "Oh, eww!" she exclaimed cleaning her tongue with a rag on the counter across from her.
" Uh, Maggie, I just used that to clean the milk I spilled," Ed said laughing more. ' She reminds me way to much of me.' He thought as his laughing fit ended.
Maggie was trying to put her mouth under the faucet of the sink to get the taste of milk out of her mouth. ' This is just disgusting!' she thought. Although, instead of getting her mouth under it, her head was soaking wet.
Ed went over to her and turned off the running faucet of water. " Why don't you just brush you teeth?" he suggested. He watched her slap her forehead which resulted in a little whimper and a muttered, " I'm so stupid." She ran upstairs to the bathroom. He heard the door slam shut and sighed. "She's not going to take this news well. I wish there was an easier way of telling her," he said and climbed the stairs to Al's room.
OK, now there are some unanswered questions that will be answered soon! This has a lot of mystery to it; well at least I think so. Next chapter will be up soon, I promise! Thanks for the reviews again! Review this time too, please.
