[She could just stay quiet there, enjoying the hand on her hair. But no, if tonight is for confessions, then she really wants to get this one out too...]

I know. I know. ... [But trying to find the words is difficult. Yet she'd be the first one to tell Ed to just say whatever's on his mind if he was in the same situation. ... Well, he just was, so now it's her turn, huh?

Winry takes a deep breath.]

We dated! [Pause.] Not we we, obviously, but -- back when I was here for the first time, the you back then got into a fight with Katara.

[Shut up if you're so much as thinking of saying even a word, Edward Elric! She's not done yet and you're not supposed to talk in the middle of a girl's confession. Not even when the girl takes just enough distance to look you into eyes. Great, now her happy tears look like she's crying and the blush on her face doesn't exactly help with that image. Well, it's not like she's sad here, she just really needs to get this out.]

Somehow it went to a fight about you and me! Next thing I know is everyone nearby and on the network hearing a love confession from you about me ... a-and, I was near you at that time, so I ... kinda heard it too, and we talked about it and -- and then I went home not very much later after that, and it's not like I'm saying let's continue from there because I'm not... I wouldn't even want to continue from there, I mean, but --

[that's kind of it?? Winry is noooooot sure what to say next, this is kind of crazy, but now that she's said all that, it feels better.]

A-Anyway, that was a really long time ago, but I guess you've earned to know that.
