She wasn't that much shorter than him.

He could tell.

And her hand was soft.

He could tell.

And that's because he reached down and held hers in his.

Eddie...fine, fuck it

They kept holding each others hands and slowly turned around.

It felt like they were looking at each other for the first time.

They weren't Tony Stark and Alana Evans anymore.

Just Eddie and Phi Phi.

Alana's free hand tentatively came up, bringing it to Tony's face. 

He leaned into her touch, not being able to take his eyes off of her face.

"Kind of imagined you as someone completely different." He whispered and softly smiled at her and she reciprocated it.

"I kind of had a feeling." She whispered back.

He brought his free hand up and placed it on top of the one on his cheek. He brought it down and placed a lingering kiss on the back of it.

"What gave me away?"

He took a hold of both of her hands and ran his thumbs over her knuckles. Not really believing that it was her.

"Jarvis. The first time I came into the tower he called me Phi Phi. So it's either you, or Eddie told Jarvis about me. I figured it might be you. You and Eddie are pretty alike."

"Oh, are we know? Would you even go as far as to say that we might be the same person?"

"It's quite likely that you are."

He grinned at her and leaned down, kissing her cheek and then pulling her into a hug.

"I'm so glad you didn't turn out to be a crazy psychopath." Happiness was laced within her voice and he chuckled in the hug.

"So you had your doubts this entire time?"

"One could never be too sure."

She pulled back and softly ran her hand through his hair. She really wanted to kiss him and she knew he could feel that she wanted to. And when she slightly leaned up and he leaned down for her, she kissed his cheek, close to his lips, lingered for half a second and went back down. Then she wrapped her arms around his neck and nuzzled her face into it. He wrapped his arms around her waist and held her close to him as many feelings went through his body.

He really thought she was going to kiss him. And he would have been happy if she had.
