fic: No Air

Dec 29, 2009 10:16

The agony didn't last too much beacause of the press who was surrounding the place with cameras and soon after three helicopters were flying on the light-blue sky, taking shots of the accident scene. Two ambulances and four police cars were blocking the way to the car which was pretty hard crashed into a concrete wall.

Warm blood stained the white leather of the expensive car. Five little glass pieces pierced his arm and blood rested over his shirt. Three men were struggling to open the door by cutting the steel and each second which passed, his life was getting really close to a dramatic end.

He could hear her screaming his name but it was the end, wasn't it? He wasted his last hours of life by making some wild things, such as getting drunk and cutting his damned hand and floading the hotel room. Then again, he saw something he'd expected to see however it hurt too damn much because he didn't wanted this to happen.

The paparazzi are always there even if you can't spot them and it makes him dizzy to think of it as a proper end to what he thought it would be if he didn't screwed it up, having that little walk and suddenly deciding that he should make up for that night on the roof. He screwed it way more. And now, he was trapped between the truth and the pain in his heart.

″Tony!″

He suddenly gasped for air, taking in his sight the damaged inside of his expensive BMW. His eyes went over the broken glass and the white leather, which was stained with blood. His blood.

″O-okay -″ He started.

″ - 'm fine. Not dead.″

His eyes searched outside the car, noticing a crowd of people and journalists.

″Just a little bit cranky.″

Tony lifted his arm from the seat and wrapped it around his stomach, masking the pain.

Suddenly the door flew open and two men rushed to see if he's alright. When the flashlights caught his eyes, he closed them instantly and passed out. Without the help of the two men, Tony would've more probably hit the ground and broke some other ribs or - only God knows whatever he could've broke.

″Where am I?″ Tony asked annoyed.

″He-llo? Anybody there?″

He opened his eyes just to catch Pepper starring at him with a hint of desbelief and anger that he didn't know she possesed. However, he should apologize but he feels that tenison in his troath, making him unable to say something.

Pepper noticed that and came slowly towards his bed. Her left hand resting over his. She watched his expression very carefully as her fingers brushed against his in a lovers manner.

Tony blinked a few times when her fingers brushed his and noticed tears threatening her eyes when he didn't respond. But he might as well continue like this forever, his heart kept reminding him he couldn't do that. So, his fingers entwined hers as he looked in her eyes.

″Don't you ever, ever, ever do this to me ever again.″

The look in her eyes was a mixture of pain and worry and made him even crazier about her.

The same for Pepper. She felt like the whole world would drop under her feet if she doesn't do this, for the both of them.

Maybe it wasn't the right time to do it, not even the place, but it felt needy so Pepper slowly moved her other hand on the back of his neck and leaned down.

Tony's all hopes were now in his troath as he watched her leaning close and close, almost torture for him to wait so long to have her.

Her kiss was like a frenzy, striking all the atoms in his body, making him shiver involuntary as a thousand of fireworks exploded in his heart. Her lips tasted like strawberry and - oh my God she was letting him in -by oppening her mouth.

He only tasted her bottom lip as the door opened and Pepper quickly got up, her eyes never leaving his as the doctor made his appearance in the room.
