This is my first attempt at a fanfic so I hope you like it. Let me know what you guys think and if I should keep writing.

I dont own any characters they are all from the T.V show Orange is the new black. I may even take a few lines or certain scenes from the actual show.


It hadn't even been 48 hours before Piper had enough and wanted to go home. She had no idea how, probably her foot and mouth disease, but she had already managed to piss off the chef resulting in her getting starved out. She cried on the phone, had a panic attack and requested to move to a different prison due to finding out that she is in here with the only person she couldn't bear to see. The reason she is even here in the first place, the woman who named her for carrying drug money and being part of the cartel even though she had only done it for her. Alex fucking Vause.

If prison wasnt bad enough it would be even worse having to avoid Alex for the entire of her sentence. She couldn't stand to look at her let alone be around her. She had been the woman that she loved but that didn't stop her from naming her which caused her to end up in Litchfield. 15 months. It was such a long time to spend avoiding someone. They had such a long history together, so many memories that they shared and all the jokes they shared. Piper hadn't thought about any of those things for such a long time she had done her best to block them out and move on from that part of her life. However the second she saw Alex everything came flooding back, all of it crashing into her head in an instant and she couldn't cope with it. She spent years trying to forget this woman and now she is within the same 4 walls with her for 15 months! Not only would she be near Alex she would also be away from Larry after they had just been engaged as well. She was missing out on so much during her time in prison. Right now she should enjoy this time with him and planning her wedding but instead she was in prison. Her best friend is pregnant and having a baby and she wouldn't be there to see the baby once it was born, she wouldn't be there to support her best friend through labor. How was she going to cope?

Piper had yet been assigned a bunk so at the moment she was staying with several different people in one room. The women in that room were nice enough to her and they helped her out so far. The sooner her money came through the better off she will be in this place there was things she needed that she couldn't get yet.

When Piper got back to the room she was sharing she noticed how crowed it was and she couldn't handle that all she wanted to do was be alone for a while. She probably wouldn't be able to find peace and quiet in this place but she could at least find somewhere she could be alone or at least somewhere she didn't know the person sitting near her.

Piper decided to go the wreck room for a while at least she could just sit there without having to talk to anyone. It pleased Piper to find the room empty apart from one or two people sitting in the corner and the T.V was switched on so that was an added bonus. She could just sit there blankly watching the T.V even if she didn't pay attention to what happens on the screen it would look like she is watching it when instead she could retreat into herself. She could pass the time by thinking of what waited for her outside and about her business waiting for her along with everything else to look forward to once she got out.

Piper had no idea how long she had sat there but she didn't care no one had bothered her so she clearly wouldn't be in any trouble. The last thing she wanted to do was get on anyone's bad side she would rather just keep herself to herself. Piper's thoughts got interrupted by a rough husky voice that she knew too well. That voice was what use to send a shiver down her spine and made her heart skip a beat. A simple whisper from that voice in her ear could make her do anything. Not anymore though. She wouldn't go back to that 22-year-old who was madly in love. She is determined to not let her presence or the rush of memories bring back any old feelings or confuse her. She would face her and then avoid her no matter how hard it might be.

"Hey kid, did you miss me?"

Piper turned around and came face to face with the one and only Alex Vause. She was still beautiful even in prison she was still the same sexy woman that she fell for the moment they started talking in that bar but she couldn't think like that anymore. She couldn't let her thoughts betray her, she needed to hate Alex otherwise she wouldn't be able to cope in her around her. Anyway Alex named her. What more of a reason did she need to hate her?

Piper was avoiding meeting Alex's eyes but she couldn't look away from them any longer otherwise Alex would think she was checking her out. Their eyes met and Piper instantly regretted it she couldn't look away now. She was lost in those green eyes. It was always an intense staring competition with them. Piper tried to remind herself that this woman was the reason she was here. The reason she couldn't be with Larry now. The reason she would miss the birth of her best friends baby. The reason she wouldn't be there to help with her business. The reason she was missing out on a year and a half of her life. Yet as she looked into Alex's eyes she suddenly forgot all that, it slowly slipped away as she remembered everything about Alex and their time together. The only thing Piper knew at the moment was that she's screwed.

Alex fucking Vause. She was everywhere. In this place, in her head and in her heart. Yes she hated her guts for naming her but in the end she knew that she had feelings for this woman. Even after all this time being apart Alex could still make her heart skip a beat. She hated that she still had that power. She didn't care what it took she would avoid Alex and she would fight every feeling that came to the surface. It was in her past for a reason and that's where it needed to stay.
