Envy allowed Ed to charge, gracefully back flipping well out of the reach of Ed's range. He grinned again, violet eyes dancing with delight as he chuckled.

"How do you know shorty? Maybe I just came by to play. Which is exactly what you're giving me. So you've all ready lost then haven't you? Tsk tsk, poor little Edo!" He pouted at the other boy mockingly, still goading the other, biding his time.

Ed was furiouse...there was nothing more he wanted but to smack that smirk off of Envys smug face. Ed lashed out again getting dangerously close to the sins face.

"Whats the matter Envy, Father getting tired of you....not buying you enough toys!" Ed sneered slicing his arm downward hoping desperatly it would connect with Envys face....he blood racing ...his heart pumping even faster, he knew he had never really managed the skill of taunting and fighting at the same time...he always ran out of breath.

The sin reached out, almost blindingly fast, batting away Ed's attack as if it were a child's blow. Granted he normally evaded rather than defended but the chibi was just so damn close and well, the way he looked flustered and panting for breath was interesting.

He pressed in close, suddenly, almost nose to nose with Edward, violet eyes peering with a mixture of malice and amusement that was nothing short of manic insanity, but it worked for him. "Father will never tire of me, I'm too loyal."

He lashed out, bringing his right leg up to push his knee into Ed's gut with significant force. Much like he had done at Lab. Five. "But you DO make an entertaining toy shrimp."

Ed's breath caught in his chest as Envys knee connected with his stomach...his vison went black but just for a second as he gasped for breath feeling his knees buckle underneath him. Eds face red from gasping for breath he wrapped his arms around his stomach to protect it from further attack.

"D-dont......call...me...SHRIMP!" Ed screamed then swung his foot around tripping Envy, but Ed had miscalculated the force of the move and Envy fell and landed on top of Ed.

The force knocking the wind out of him again.

The sin's eyes widened at the feeling of his legs going out from under him, but the expected impact with the floor was broken by something firm, but subtly softer. Envy peered down to find himself laying sprawled on top of Edward, and the close contact was more than he was prepared for.

This was NOT at all like when he had carried the boy over his shoulder from the lab. Ed had been unconscious then and only barely touching him, nothing at all like this full body plastering they were doing right now. Not that it felt, bad per say but it wasn't where he wanted to be! And the moment he started to get up, he could feel a certain solidness between his legs....which his brain registered as Ed's automail leg. Abruptly the sin threw his body backwards, glaring venomously at Ed as if the alchemist had deeply wounded him.

THAT..had felt..too strange.

Ed was at first too dizy to register what had just happen but then he felt it..the weight of another body pressing down on him...somthing automaticly stirred deep inside him...the feeling was unfamiliar...but not unpleasant. Eds eyes focased and he looked up directly into Envys face..his face was very close to his...not that it wasnt the first time...he had ever been this close to the sin, but there was somthing almost hypnotic about those deep pools of purple eyes.

Ed gasped as he felt Envy suddenly jerk up off of his chest...and saw the glare in those deep violet eyes.
Eds face blushed deep red and he quickly closed his eyes and shook his head.
"What?...arnt you going to kill me now?...isnt that what you want Envy?" Ed said a angry look returning to his face.

Envy scowled almost hatefully at Edward, his focus disturbed. His body was tingling faintly in certain area and it was distracting! He was starting to get very angry and in his anger he might actually hurt the little runt more than Father wanted.

Killing their precious human sacrifice was a big no-no according to Father, so to save himself from transgressing, Envy turned and darted up the stairs, tossing a half mocking, half furious, "Play time is over for now pipsqueak! Consider yourself lucky I spared your life!"

With that he was moving back out of the library in a burst of speed, trying to get outside where he could scale the building ledges and try to forget the way it felt to be pressed against the chibi.

Ed had never seen Envy so bothered...and leaving him without a scratch...no explanation. Ed frowned and jumped to his feet and started chasing after the sin.

"He looked scared" Ed pondered as he raced outside "If he is vulnerable...there might be a chance I can use that to my advantage."

Ed looked and saw Envy near the wall looking like he was about to scale it. Ed smirked.

"Whats the matter Envy.....father set a curfew for you?...if you dont make it home in time you going to turn into a pumpkin?...or worse...does that father spank when his homunculos are late??"

Ed began to laugh.

Envy jolted at the sound of Edward's voice, but what the chibi SAID! It was rare for the sin to feel outraged or embarrassed. Ed howevere had managed to do all of that with a few words. The very IDEA!

Pale cheeks turned a light pink as a burst of furious heat invaded them. Envy slowly turned to glare at Edward, long fingers curling into tight fists at his sides.

"What did you say midget?!"

"Oooh did I hit a soft spot?" Ed said grinning now...it was rare to get the sin riled...there was a small voice in the back of the Alchmist head that told him to stop...and that he was playing a dangerouse game.

"You heard me daddys boy!...bet he does more that spank too!....you better run along...dont want to make father mad!"

Ed readied himself...as Envy looked liked he was ready to explode.
