Some people were apparently destined for painful lives. She and Tony had already gone through the horrid awkwardness of having a shared brother, the pain of split families, only to have two pieces of theirs come back together, and now something else had gone wrong. Zara, Tony's older sister, and certainly the one he was closer to, had been in some kind of 'accident'. She knew it had affected Jacob to some degree, too, but he hadn't said enough about it for her to be worried. Tony, on the other hand...

His journal had her worried, and despite knowing that they weren't a couple, weren't dating, and logically couldn't date- what with their parents moving in together- she was hurrying over to the Slytherin common room. Maybe he wasn't her boyfriend, but she couldn't help but care about him, be concerned about him. She didn't like the way it sounded as if he was blaming himself for what had happened to his sister when it was obvious there was nothing he could have done.

Perhaps she was more concerned because she didn't like to think that it had been her fault, too. After all, Tony was with her on Halloween. Would he have been with his sister that night if it wasn't for her? What would have happened if he was? Would he be lying in the bed next to her? Piper quickly shook off that thought, however, as the entrance to Slytherin came into view. She had half a mind to try and sneak her way in, but thought better of it, lenaing impatiently against the wall as her fingers drummed a nervous beat against the stone.

It was hard to see that Tony had slid back into the bitterness she had managed to coax him out of before everything had gone so terribly wrong. She remembered goading him into going to Hogsmeade with her, making it seem like a challenge so she could get to know him better. He had lightened up, maybe not completely, but he was happier. That hadn't lasted long.

She reached for Tony's hand again. "Tony, she will be okay. I know it won't be right away, but she will. Zara's strong."

	Piper was caught offguard by the intimate gesture, but she didn't pull her hand away. She shifted her hand to cup his jaw, her thumb gently brushing across his cheek bone. "It's going to be alright, Tony," she assured him. She had to believe that the professors were doing everything they could. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It felt nice the way Piper was brushing his cheek bone with her thumb. He was glad that she didn't pull away either. It was so strange... how much he liked Piper. How he'd warmed up to her, just to stop their relationship in it's tracks. But he didn't want to forget about it, and neither did she apparently. "I'd like to believe it when you say it."

	Tony felt relief when she didn't pull away, but didn't respond badly to the kiss either. He closed his eyes too as he continued to kiss her. Tony let his hand fall from her cheek before he pulled back to see her reaction or if she had anything to say. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Before Tony could think of agreeing or disagreeing, Piper was already leaning back in to kiss him again. And not the simple kiss from before. Tony leaned in to kiss her deeper and his hands moved up to lace into her hair. It had been so long since they were this close, he couldn't help it. Piper was the only girl he'd kissed before, and he'd missed kissing her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
