*This is my first fanfic ever and English isn't my first language, so please be kind and forgive me for any error that I may have made.
I don't know if there will be a follow up, I really hope so but I have finals and I don't know when I will be able to write some more.
I hope you enjoy it.*
Alex walked down the familiar aisle, following the other new inmates, her eyes were on the ground but she could feel all the women watching her, she wasn't paying attention to anything until she felt a soft touch on the shoulder. "Can we talk?" Piper said gently, Alex just nodded and took her hand making her rush to follow Morello into the room.
"Sooo you know the drill, here's you soap and your toothbrush, you can take Miss Rosa's bed" for the first time since she had put her foot back in Linchfield Alex talked: "Is she..?"
"Who knows, she escaped. You'll see, things are a little bit different in here, Chapman will tell ya".
Morello left the room, leaving them with Demarco and two other new girls in orange.
"Do you mind if we go somewhere private?" Alex could tell that Piper was nervous, so she said with a sad smile: "We can go wherever you want, kid." Still holding hands, they moved toward the chapel, Alex knew that it wasn't wise to hold Piper's hand but she couldn't let go, it was probably the only thing kipping her to start screaming, she was back in prison, but that also meant that she was safe, she was with Piper but she had the strong feeling that she was about to hear that her love was the one who ratted her out and she didn't know how she felt about it.
As soon as the chapel door closed Alex lifted her glasses on her head and pointed her eyes into Piper's.
"Please let me say all that I have to, after you can do whatever you want but you have to let me finish. You were right, I don't hate you, I love you, I always have, and I'm not with Larry anymore and that's not gonna change, he is with Polly now… So, you see when I call them asking for a favor they had to do it, not question asked, and they did. I asked them to tell your probation officer that you were skipping town".
Alex opened her mouth to say something even if she didn't know what, but Piper didn't let her.
"Please, let me finish. I know that I cost you your freedom, and I'm sorry and I know that you'll probably will hate me but I didn't know what else to do, I had to keep you safe, you have to understand that… and yes, maybe I'm not that sorry that you are here with me, but that is only because I really missed you".
As Piper closed her mouth Alex was searching for something to say, but all she could do was laugh. Piper watched her puzzled so she pulled back her glasses and said: "Well kid, now we are even and we really should stop ratting each other out, I knew it was you but I'm glad you told me".
Piper took a step forward and whispered: "well there's another thing, you look hot as hell in orange" they were now just few inches apart, Alex smiled for the compliment but let Piper come to her. It seems to took forever before their lips touched but when they finally did Alex felt a rush of pure joy, as she pulled Piper close she couldn't believe how happy she was of being back in her arms even if that meant being back in prison. She started kissing Piper's neck while her hands ran on her back keeping her close, in the moment her hands met Piper's bra she felt her lover pushing back.
"We can't" said Piper with short breath.
"Why the fuck no?" Alex whispered while kissing Piper's jaw.
"The prison is in lock down, there is a count in ten minutes and we are supposed to be in the cafeteria". As soon as she heard that Alex stopped.
"Crap, what happened?"
"Miss Rosa and another inmate, Vee, escaped, they found Vee almost dead on the road and god if she deserved it, she sent Red to the hospital and she brought heroin inside the prison."
"Sounds like I've missed a lot" said Alex kissing Piper on the cheek and taking her hand while leaving the chapel.
As soon as they turned the corner Piper let go her hand, Alex hadn't noticed Mr Healy walking toward them and that simple gesture, Piper taking distance from her, almost broke her hart. She knew she should be angry at her and that they were toxic to each other but she couldn't manage to set aside the deep love she felt for the blonde who was now walking a few feet ahead of her.
"Closure eh Chapman?" Said Mr Healy with a smirk as he walked by.
In the cafeteria Alex understood what they meant when they said that things had changed, she had never seen the other inmates be so quiet when all together, all the chatting was now whispered and there were two scary-looking new COs watching they every move.
"Holy fuckin' shit, Morello was right, you missed me too much?" Whispered Nicky with a grin.
"Don't push it" said Piper, Alex was surprised, how much did the blond know about her and Nicky? Was she jealous?
"Yeah Nichols, something like that..." Responded Alex sitting in front of her, next to Piper. She turned to Piper and kissed her on the cheek, Piper relaxed and smiled while Nicky burst into a loud laugh that was soon interrupted by a CO shouting them to quiet down.
