I Introduce The Selfish Machine

"Piippppppper move your legs! You're in my way." I woke up to Jaime saying that as he pushed my legs. I groaned and rolled over.
"Jaiiiimmmmeeee stoooop." I said, my face shoved in a pillow.
"Buuuutttt Pipppppperrrr."
"Buuuutttt HiiiiiMeeeee."
I pulled my legs up so Jaime could sit where my legs were. I shut my eyes again, wanting to go back to sleep, but I felt someone's hands in my hair.
"Hey, Piper Lynn." I heard Tony whisper into my ear.
"Whaaaaat." I groaned.
"It's time to get up."
"Nuh-uh."
"It's 12:45."
I sat up, my eyes semi-open. I looked at Tony, who was crouched down next to the couch. There was so much movement going on around me.
"Just because you wake up early Tony doesn't mean I have to." I said, rubbing my eyes.
"12:45 isn't early, baby."
Baby. My heart was flying when he said that.
The feeling.
"Whatever. Where are we?" I asked, my voice a little scratchy.
"We're at the venue."
I looked around. People were moving things and people were eating and talking just so loud.
"Hey, Piper Lynn." Tony said.
"What?"
"You want to, I don't know, go explore Seattle before the show tonight?"
I was about to say not really, but then looked up and saw Jaime staring at us. I then remembered the conversation we had last night. "Yeah, sure babe. Just let me get dressed. Where are we going?"
Tony smiled. "Just on a walk."

Tony and I caught a taxi right outside the venue. The show didn't start until 6, and the line was already super long.
"Jeez." I said, my hands against the window.
"I know, it's crazy long." Tony said. He put his hand on my upper thigh.
"Are you not going to walk the line and take pictures with them?" I asked.
Tony looked confused. "I wasn't planning on it."
"These kids are waiting out here to see you guys, they would love to meet you."
"Piper Lynn, I don't-"
"Driver, stop please." The taxi came to a halt at the front of the line. I jumped out of the taxi, running to the first people in line.
"Hey! You guys here for the Pierce The Veil show?" I asked.
This girl with pink hair stared at me. "Uh, duh." She said, not looking up from her phone.
"Are you excited?"
"If you think you can get in line with us, you're dead wrong and you need to leave before I call security over here."
"Oh, no. I'm not getting in line. I just thought you'd like to meet somebody." I turned around and waved Tony out of the taxi. He got out, looking awkward. The girl's jaw dropped when she saw him.
"Ton-Ton-Ton- You know Tony Perry?" She asked me.
Tony walked over to me, and I laced my fingers with him. "Yeah, I mean, I kinda like this dude. He's a pretty great boyfriend. I'm sure you would love a picture with him."
"Well, yea-"
"Well too bad. Don't be such a bitch next time." I said, pulling Tony over to another group of girls who's eyes were so big, I thought they were going to pop out of their heads. I stood back and watched Tony get pulled out of his comfort zone, and he seemed to be enjoying it.
After we walked the line, he pulled me behind the building.
"Piper Lynn, you're so great. Thank you for making me do that." He said and then kissed my forehead.
I smiled at him. "It was no problem, I mean it was fun meeting your fans."
His face got extremely close to mine. "I really like you."
I smiled. "I really like you too, Tony."
I said it, and I meant it.

TONY'S POV

"I really like you too, Tony." Piper said. I felt a smile grow across my face as I leaned in to kiss her. I love kisses her. She always taste so sweet that I never want to stop kissing her. I put my hands on her hips, and she fell into to me. As her hands traced up my neck and into my hair, I realized something.
I'm in love with Piper.
