When Make Believe Becomes Reality
Chapter 1
Alex Vause stood with the members of the cast and crew of Litchfield Place as they toasted the end of their series. As she stood looking at the creator, Joe Caputo and producer Natalie Figueroa, holding up her champagne glass, she glanced out of the corner of her eye at her costar Piper Chapman.
"Wow she looks beautiful", Alex thinks as she looks at the radiant Piper. As Piper held up her champagne glass, Alex looks at Piper's hand at the shining wedding ring. She looks down at her own hand at the matching ring and thinks about how happy she's been for the past 8 years.
As Caputo and Fig continue to make their joint speech, Alex tunes them out as she thinks about the past 8 years since she met the famous Piper Chapman who turned everything upside down the minute she walked into the audition room 8 years ago.
