Who: Piper Wood and Tony Flint
What: Piper is worried about him
Where: Outside the Slytherin Common Room
When: After Tony's journal
Rating: PG-13
Status: Complete

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.

"What are you going to do?" Tony asked. He knew he wanted to go traveling, and work as a curse breaker. Keep himself far from home, and being his own person. Escaping everything that defined him as a Flint and connected him to all that family drama.

"I wish we could too," Tony said. He had to admit, last year when Piper first showed interest in him... Tony had been nervous about it. He had no idea what she'd be interested in him, and was worried it had been some kind of prank or something. And they'd had their own issues before anything came out about Jacob. "If no one else knew to make comments. To just leave us alone."

"I don't know," she answered honestly. "Go far away. Find a job that pays decently. Just... start over, I guess." She wanted to go somewhere far away from all the dramatics that had been attached to her name, somewhere different and exciting.

"...People don't know we're here," she pointed ouyt. "I mean, if we didn't say anything and just..." She trailed off, unsure of where she was going with her thoughts. Sneaking around with Tony, lying to people? She wasn't ashamed of him, but things were so complicated. People thought it was wrong, they looked at them like it was wrong. But if it was so wrong, then why didn't it feel wrong? Why were they there, in that room at all?

Tony smiled at her answer. "Kind of like what I want to do," he said. Though he at least had a clear idea in mind about what kind of work he would be doing. He didn't know if Piper had thought that far ahead. If everything went well Tony would even get to go away for the summer to do internships and get ready for the end of school.

Maybe in the beginning when Tony resisted it felt wrong to be with Piper. But that was stupid family prejudices, which apparently their parents had ignored anyway. But if no one knew, no one could bother them. Tony reached his hand up to brush some of her hair out of her face. She was so close now... so he leaned in to kiss her softly.

Piper felt her cheeks heat up as he looked at her, watched him lean in until she let her eyes flutter closed, her lips meeting his for the first time is so long. It felt perfect, like their lips fit with each other's just right, and all thoughts of how wrong it was, what people would think or say, were shoved to the back of her mind as she focused on that feeling.

	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)

Piper opened her eyes to look at him then, eyes flitting nervously across his features. What was she supposed to say? What did he want her to say? Her head was slightly foggy from the kiss, a mess of physical and emotional feelings as she stared back at him. After a moment's pause and a whirlwind of thoughts, she finally spoke.

"This is a bad idea," she whispered, but it didn't stop her from moving forward to kiss him again, not as softly as before.

	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)

	Piper's arms slid up around his neck as she shifted in one smooth motion from her chair into his lap to get closer to him. She had missed this, being close to him, touching him, kissing him, and it was easy to forget, just for a little while, that it might not be okay as her lips moved against his.

	The move had taken Tony by surprise, but he didn't try to stop her, as Piper climbed into his lap. Tony wrapped an arm around her waist and left a hand in her hair. He kissed back harder as she continued to snog him. Tony didn't really expect their meeting to lead to this, but he wasn't complaining. He was only thinking about Piper now.

Piper hadn't exactly planned this either. She had come to talk to him about Zara, to make sure he was okay after he sounded like such a mess in his journal. She supposed snogging always made everyone feel better...

Held securely against him, she let a hand shift into his hair, kissing him back fervently as if she were afraid she wouldn't get another chance, and maybe there was a small part of her that was afraid of that.

	Tony could sense the urgency Piper had and he wasn't quite surprised by it. He felt her hands tighten in his hair, and felt her move closer. Tony wouldn't push her away, in case they never got a chance to be close again. He opened his mouth to hers, and his tongue moved over her bottom lip. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Piper couldn't help but let out a soft groan as she parted her lips to meet his tongue with hers. It felt good being this close to someone. No, not just to someone, to Tony, and she wasn't ready for it to be over. She didn't want to think of the moment when they separated, when they had to think of the effects of their actions.

	Tony was only thinking of Piper, and how good it felt to kiss her, how she tasted. He didn't want to think about all the reasons why he shouldn't be snogging her, and why he shouldn't even see her. He smoothed his hand over her lower back as he kissed her deeper, ignoring that soon enough he'd have to pull away to breath. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Lungs were dreadful things. They required oxygen, which meant she couldn't kiss him for forever. She couldn't relish in the moment for nearly as long as she wanted to, and she grudgingly let herself pull back, sucking in a much-need breath of air. She let her forehead rest against his as she took sighed softly, unwilling to say anything to have to come back to reality.

	Tony took in a breath when Piper's lips finally left his. He opened his eyes looking at her pretty face as he tried to catch his breath, and felt her forehead leaning against his. He reached up to tuck her hair back again. They didn't say anything but he sighed trying to avoid thinking about the reality of their situation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She gazed back at him, his blue eyes piercing as she let her chest rise and fall against his. She swallowed thickly, her lips tingling from the intensity of their kiss.

And it had been intense. They still wanted each other, and now they both knew it. Her lips pressed against his briefly, one last peck before having to wake up and be rational. If she had been trying to help Tony, it certainly seemed like she had just made things an awful lot more complicated.

"I don't... know what to do, Tony," she breathed.

Tony could see her hazel eyes searching his for an answer. An answer he wasn't sure he had. Tony only knew what he felt, and Zara would have told him before to go with that. But he was also rational and he knew what they were doing wouldn't come to any good. It was just frustrating...

Especially since it was so intense between them. That they had such a connection. Even a soft peck was enough to put him in a brief daze. "I don't know either."

	Piper was beginning to think that there was no answer, and it was so frustrating, not to have some instantaneous resolution that could make everything okay. Piper was not a patient sort of girl. "What if... we just... pretend it doesn't matter for a little while?" she asked softly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Pretend?" Tony asked trying to make sense of it. Did she mean pretend that they didn't share a brother. Or that her mother wasn't living with his father. ... Why not? He always wanted to forget that his life was so screwed up. "For a little while. Till we can think of a better solution," he said smiling a bit. He knew there wouldn't be an easy solution but... they had to resolve this some how. But he didn't want to wait for that, only for it to come out badly.

	"Okay," she said with a small smile. She pressed her lips gently to the skin beneath his ear. "Even if it's just today. I've... missed you." She reached to gently brush his hair aside from his eyes. "A lot." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tony felt a slight shiver when she kissed the skin under his ear. He smiled at her when she said she missed him. Tony wrapped both of his arms around her then, pulling her closer and he buried his face in her neck. Breathing in her scent, the smell of her shampoo in her hair. "I missed you too."
