A/N: I originally wrote this drabble for 15pairings lj, but I decided eh, why not post it here, FF could really use some Rachel/Piper.


something about rachel that piper can't seem to understand is that

when rachel smiles, she smiles with her eyes

and it takes moments for her lips to follow.

and everything about rachel is warm and soft and cozy

from her orange corkscrew curls to her spring green eyes.

and so when she comforts piper about her loss (jason) the winter that follows

and then wraps her arms around her, piper forgets

about jason

and leo

and the gods

and she decides that the longer it takes

for her eyes to follow her smile

the longer she will keep kissing her.
