Dating Edward Elric Would Include

randomfandomimagine:

A DATING AL WAS REQUEST AND I WANTED TO WRITE ONE FOR ED TOO, SO HERE IT IS, ENJOY! 😀

• Ever since you met, things seem so easy with him
• Conversation flows on its own
• He seems to understand you all the time
• And you just have a good vibe together
• So it wasn’t strange that you became friends quickly
• And eventually best friends
• Until you became a little more than that when you started dating
• Winding him up by calling him ‘shortie’ (you better run though)
• You argue a lot
• The friendly kind of bickering that oddly shows your affection
• Because you’re never really angry at each other
• You don’t argue with Ed, hardly ever
• At least not for real, it’s always playful
• If you do, it’s about something very important and serious
• About a big disagreement
• And you might avoid each other for a few days
• But in the end you work it out and make up
• Whenever you need each other, you’re always there
• Ed never hesitates to defend or protect you
• He has these little silent gestures that you adore
• Like when he notices you’re cold and puts his red coat over you
• Or when you’re too quiet and he knows you’re worried
• Ed will then nudge you and asks you to ‘spit it out’ 
• Won’t stop until you tell him what you’re upset about
• He never loses a chance to cheer you up or comfort you
• He never openly tells you how much you mean to him
• But it’s things like these that remind you of it
• Edward doesn’t like talking about feelings, really
• Or quickly brushes it off when an emotional conversation happens
• But you get him to open up a little
• Even though you two have your own way of communicating
• Mostly not even needing words
• You know what the other is thinking with just a glance
• And you know what each of his smiles mean
• A lot of teasing
• Especially trying to fluster the other
• You love trying to make Ed blush, it’s just fun
• For example, randomly kissing his cheek
• When he least expects it too
• He just begins mumbling and blushing like crazy
• He tells you off to hide his embarrassment
• Edward does the same to you too
• And instead of teasing you about it like you do, he laughs
• Like full on loud guffaws of laughter
• You usually call him just ‘Ed’ and he calls you by your abbreviation too
• When you use full names, you know something’s off
• “Edward!” “It wasn’t me!”
• It just depends on the tone as well
• “Edward…” “What’s wrong, who do I have to kill?” 
• Same goes for him, even if he tries not to make it noticeable
• When he calls you simply Y/N, you know something’s up
• Most of the time it slips his mind because he doesn’t want you to worry
• But you do, because of course you do, you care a lot
• Trying to distract him when he’s upset
• For example, when his automail are especially painful
• Or when he’s worried about Al
• You always reassure him saying he’s doing his best
• Because Ed pressures himself too much to help his brother
• You get along with Alphonse extremely well too
• And Edward is so happy to see you’re friends with Al
• He feels better knowing you care about his brother
• Knowing that you’ll protect him too
• Even if sometimes he regrets your friendship
• Because Al wil tease his brother a lot about you
• Physical affection is not too common between Ed and you
• There are lots of hugs of all kinds
• Random and carefree, celebratory, affectionate, emotional…
• But there is a lot of cuddling even if it’s mostly subconscious
• Like putting your head in his shoulder during train journeys
• Or falling asleep over each other
• Or him leaning on you sometimes
• Maybe even holding hands without realizing
• You might not tell each other often, but you love the other a lot
