A/N: Hi everyone! I had this crazy idea of doing a sort of crossover between two of my favorite shows Orange Is The New Black and Life Unexpected.
Also, I want you to know this is my first fan fiction and my first language is Spanish so… bare with me, please. I would really appreciate reviews if you find the time! All mistakes are mine. Hope you enjoy!

Chapter 1: Child Unexpected
It was a typical Sunday morning for Alex meaning that she was sleeping due to the long shift she had worked at the bar the night before.
She heard a knock on the door of her apartment and thought it probably was Nicky, her boss, but also her best friend, therefore she made no attempt to go check, telling herself that she'll call her later, at a more appropriate time.
When Alex heard a second, and then a third knock, she finally stood up and went to answer the door.
"Nicky, I swear to God I will kill you if " She was about to start a rant when she noticed that the person standing in front of her was definitely not her messy haired of a best friend. In fact, it was a blond teenager that for some weird reason looked like someone she already knew but didn't remember where.
"I'm sorry kid but whatever you are selling I'm not interested" The girl looked wordless and stared at her for what it felt like an eternity.
"Ok, ok …I'll buy you something, what do you have? Cookies? Are you like a girl scout? You definitely have to be a girl scout to be up this early on a Sunday morning "
"Um… I'm looking for Alexandra Vause. I understand this is her address but I don't know if she still lives here. Do you know when and where can I find her?" The blond girl finally spoke.
"I'm Alex. Alex Vause."
"Oh… are you sure?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Do you need me to sign an order for the cookies or what?
"I'm Lux. I'm… I'm not a girl scout. Actually, I'm half your DNA"
"What?"
"I'm your daughter"
Flashback
Alex and Piper love story had begun a night at a super random bar where Alex was out with friends and Piper, a young WASPy fresh out of college girl, was looking for a job.
"Hey you, Laura Ingalls Wilder. We're escaping America before the apocalypse. Wanna come?" These were the first words Alex had said to Piper and at that instant moment they met it was pure connection and they hit it off right form there. They started dating after the tall brunette broke up with her sort of girlfriend at the time Sylvia.
Their relationship wasn't always easy with Alex complicated line of work. Piper knew from the very beginning she worked for an International Drug Cartel and it was true that they had had a lot of fun and adventures all over the world because of it, but after a while, Piper wanted more for the two of them. She wanted a family, a normal job and a stable place where they would live and call home.
At first Alex was reluctant to leave the Cartel so they started to argue every minute they were together. They argued about the job, the neglect the blonde was feeling, the jealousy over the mules and the most important thing for Piper: Alex's safety.
They made it to a point where they had to decide if this was it or they were gonna be able to move forward together.
Piper wanted more and Alex wanted Piper. Therefore, decision made.
Leaving a Drug Cartel wasn't an easy task but after Fahri had talked to Kubra and promises of strict silence were made, they let Alex and Piper go.
Years have passed and nothing could be better. They were happily living together in the States and still very much in love to the point that it was disgustingly cute according to Polly, Piper's best friend and business partner. Polly and Piper have started a local soap shop called Poppy which was doing very well. Alex, on the other hand, was working in a Library, where she was the manager and got to be surrounded by books all day. She was absolutely ecstatic when she landed the job because books were her favorite thing in the world, after Piper, of course.
"Babe, I think I am ready" Alex said to Piper, one night while they were already in bed about to get some sleep.
"Me too. I'm worn out. Polly drove me insane today"
Alex couldn't help but smile at the fact that her girlfriend didn't understand what she was meaning to say at all.
"I meant I'm ready… ready to start a family with you"
Piper quickly turned over facing the brunette and sporting the biggest smile Alex had ever seen.
"Really?"
"Yes, really. I love you more than anything in my life and I want to try and be a mom with you"
"Oh my god, Alex! You make me so happy! You are going to be the best mom ever. You'll see"
"I don't think so 'cause the best mom ever is going to be you, so…" At this statement Piper could not wait a second more and started to kiss Alex with all of her strength.
They decided Piper would carry but they would use Alex eggs and a blond sperm donant so their future child would be a mix from the two of them.
They were happy, they were together, and they were in love. Little did they know that everything was about to go down.
The darker times began when after all of the joy and bliss over learning about Piper pregnancy they suffered their first miscarriage. It was no one fault but still, Piper was sad all the time and Alex was trying to be the strong one for the both of them.
Their second miscarriage came a little later and this time Alex couldn't hide the disappointment and frustration over wanting something so bad and not being able to achieve it. She began to throw herself into work and when Piper confronted her about shutting her out she told her they probably should wait a little before give it another try because she wasn't ready yet to lose another pregnancy. Piper agreed.
Three months later, two police officers came to their house and Piper's biggest fear was finally happening, Alex's past was catching up with her.
Some guy from the ring had gotten busted and in an attempt to be sentenced with less years of prison, he had given names of other people who had worked for the Cartel as well.
End of Flashback
"Sorry, what? You are my… what?"
"Look I know this sounds weird, believe me, I don't really wanna be here as much as you want me here. The thing is the day after tomorrow is my 16th birthday and I'm trying to get emancipated from Foster Care. I was putting together the paperwork for my hearing and it turns out that no one ever signed the permanent release of rights. My Caseworker was gonna take forever to get it signed so when she went to speak on her phone I looked at my file and saw your name and address. Basically until you sign this paper you are still, legally, my mother"
To say that Alex was shocked was really an understatement. She was beyond shocked. The kid beside her claimed to be her daughter. This had to be a mistake. She never had a child. Since she got out of prison she has been living a crappy life and before… suddenly a name and a face invaded Alex's mind. A face she has been trying to forget and erase from her memory for the past 15 years.
"Wait how many years old did you said you were?" She asked to the kid.
"I'm 16. Well almost 16. And I would like to stress that if I don't get both signatures before my hearing I'll have to spend two more years in Foster Care which, in case you don't know, sucks"
Alex's mind went directly to the exact moment when she had told Piper to wait for a little while before give it another try to the in vitro fertility treatment. Then she went to prison and decided to make the most difficult thing she had ever done in her whole life; letting Piper go. Piper would have never done this by herself, it wasn't possible. Or was it? She was so into her thoughts when she heard the blond girl talk again.
"Ok, judging from the confused look in your face I think I need to do this again. You and someone had a kid, you gave up that kid. I'm that kid. And now I'm applying for emancipation so I need your signature and the other woman as well. I couldn't see her name nor her address without getting caught for looking at my file but several years before I've heard a Social Worker say I didn't had a father 'cause I was the child of a lesbian couple"
Alex felt like her heart had stopped at the mention of another woman. She couldn't deny it anymore. Everything seemed to fit. This girl needed to find Piper and so did she for a sure needed explanation.
"Piper" Alex said stroking her hair with her hands, a habit she usually did when she got nervous.
"Piper Chapman is your other mom"
