There's Always Going to Be One Person;
A Piper Chapman and Alex Vause fanfic;
By emilyjasmine;
Disclaimer – I own nothing but the plot.
Wow it's been such a long time since I've written anything and I know I said I was going to do a sequel to 'A Senior Year Of Unexpected Events' but I started watching Orange Is The New Black and I fell complete head over heels for Alex Vause and her relationship with Piper. If they don't end up together I will cry.
However, this plot line came into my head and I had to write it. I really hope I'm portraying the characters as they are on the show. Some story lines will follow the show and others won't. The story will be split with the first part taking place in the prison and the second will be after the two girls have left.
Reviews are always welcome, so without further ado, let's get on with the story.
"I'm sorry, Larry," she said and hung up the phone immediately as to not hear him cry. Last week he'd given her the ultimatum, it was to marry him as soon as possible or lose him forever. Initially she'd chosen to be with him because she loved him but when she went to tell Alex, she couldn't bring herself to tell her because she knew deep down that Alex Vause was her person. She was the person that she would always run back to and the person that she loved more than anything and anyone in the world. So in the end, when she thought about the ultimatum, she chose the latter because when it came to make decisions, Piper Chapman had always failed miserably but this time she just couldn't do the wrong thing again. She'd lost Alex once and she wasn't doing it again.
Piper sighed as she turned her back to the phones but she felt nothing for the man she had just ended it with. Bizarrely, she didn't feel sad; it was quite the opposite, she felt excited.
"Everything okay there, Dandelion?" Suzanne aka Crazy Eyes asked as she walked past Piper.
"You know what, Suzanne, for the first time in a while it is," Piper replied grinning brightly. "Have you seen Alex anywhere?"
"Vause?" Piper nodded, "She was in the library the last time I checked."
"Thanks."
Piper smiled again at Suzanne who really was a nice girl and she was fortunate that she'd forgiven her after the whole radio report. Sure, she was a little crazy sometimes but she was all heart and Piper actually did find comfort in their new, but slightly, strange friendship. However, this was not the time to think about her new found friendship with someone who until recently thought she was her wife. It was the time to find the one woman who she wanted more than anything to become her real wife one day.
Rushing around as quickly as possible without it looking like she was running, hell if Pornstache were to find her at this moment, it could ruin everything, she finally made it to the library and she began her search. She looked up and down every row but there was no sight of the chocolate locked beauty there.
"You looking for something in particular, Chapman?" Taystee asked as she'd watched the blonde check every aisle twice in the last ten minutes and finally took pity on her to help her out.
"It's more someone, actually," Piper replied running a hand through her hair. "Have you seen Alex…I mean Vause?"
Taystee nodded and smirked and placed the book she had in her hand down on the table near her and said, "She left half an hour before you turned up. She grabbed a book and said she was going to chill in her cube for a bit but she don't want disturbing. She made that clear if anyone was to ask for her whereabouts." Taystee then paused and laughed slightly as she remembered who she was talking to. "But I think she'd allow a visit from you."
"Thank you!"
Piper smiled brightly again, something the other inmates hadn't seen from the blonde ever during her time in the prison, and headed off again. Bizarrely, every person she passed looked at her strange. Perhaps it was the determined look on face, she didn't know but she knew that she did not want to find out. All that mattered to her right now was seeing Alex again and to tell her everything.
Before piper knew it, she was in Alex's room and only metres away from her cube and suddenly the feeling became too much and she couldn't move any further forward. Breathing also became a difficulty. Just seconds before she was about to run away, a familiar voice called her name and Piper knew she couldn't escape this time.
"Pipes?" Alex called smirking as usual but concern immediately took over her beautiful face and she slid her glasses further up her nose to see the blonde clearer. "Is everything okay?"
Piper said nothing but continued to stare at Alex, blown away by her beauty, flawless complexion and body as usual.
"Piper?" Alex tried again but this time she place her book down on her bed, stood up and walked over to Piper placing her hands on her cheeks. "Talk to me, kid. Are you okay?"
Alex's touch seemed to bring Piper to her senses and she leant into her touch before finally muttering, "I'm single."
Those short words brought Alex back to her senses too. She moved Piper's head so that she could see into her eyes properly. "Say that again?" She requested.
Piper leant up and took one of Alex's hands and led her into her cube. Immediately, the two sat down but neither released the other's hand.
"I said, I'm single," Piper repeated. "I ended it with Larry. He gave me an ultimatum." When Alex didn't say anything, Piper quickly continued. "He said I could either marry him while I was in here as soon as we could or that we were over and I originally accepted but I just couldn't bring myself to tell you. Instead I rang him and told him I changed my mind. He didn't like it but I knew you'd started to get your hopes up when we talked about the future and I couldn't get your hopes up and leave, well more like abandon, you again. I just couldn't do it; you're inevitable to me. I love you, Alex Vause."
Piper finally stopped talking and looked at Alex who was just staring at Piper intently and despite the usual ease that Piper could read Alex, this time it was just impossible. She couldn't tell if the brunette was happy about what she'd just revealed or saddened by it.
"Al, talk to me?" Piper asked waving a hand in front of her face but as soon as she stared, Alex blinked and reached out pulling Piper's hand away from her face and held it down on her lap. As soon as the hand was out of the way, Piper suddenly felt pressure on her lips and realised that Alex was kissing her and it was a kiss with so much passion and love that made Piper almost want to cry. However, it was shortly lived as Alex suddenly pulled back.
"Come with me," she demanded and they immediately stood up and Piper felt what it was like for Alex a few weeks ago as she was the one who was pulled to the chapel this time.
Once they were there, Alex reclaimed Piper's lips and her hands immediately went under the blonde's shirt. However, as much as she had enjoyed the dominance Alex had over her in the past, she knew it was her turn to dominate the brunette. So she grasped the other girl's hands to prevent them from going under her shirt and instead, she took this chance to pull off Alex's t-shit which was quickly followed by her bra all of which was done with as little rest from the hot make out session that had started earlier. As soon as her perfect breasts were revealed, Piper cut off their kiss and trailed wet kisses down Alex's neck as her hands alternatively squeezed her tits and tweaked her nipples.
These actions meant Alex's hands were now free and the brunette started working them down to the blondes in an attempt to puller back up to recommence kissing but Piper was stubborn and her kisses worked downwards from her neck to her chest and to the brunette's left nipple.
"Fuck, Pipes, when did you get so dominating?" Alex groaned but Piper didn't cease her work and just laughed but the vibration around her nipple only made Alex moan louder with delight. She knew that Piper would never reply but she didn't care as long as Piper kept doing that with her tongue.
Piper gave the other nipple equal attention and then continued to work lower and slipped Alex's trousers and panties down as she travelled. When they were on the floor, she wrapped her arms around Alex's body and inhaled deeply. She'd really missed this closeness between them.
"Please, Pipes," Alex cried suddenly pushing Piper's head making her remember what was going on.
She quickly lifted the other woman's left leg over her shoulder and her tongue entered her folds and she quickly began licking her way up to her clit and back down to tongue-fuck her. The noises that erupted from Alex's mouth above her drove her insane and it was what kept her going, moaning herself. She then brought her right hand up and replaced her tongue with two fingers and moved her lips to settle around the swollen clit. The rapid pace set with the finger and the complete attention on her clit sent Alex over the edge and she had to put her hand in her mouth to keep quiet as the climax reached. She shuddered over Piper and grinded her pussy into her face to ride out her orgasm.
As soon as the orgasm washed through her body, Alex sunk down on the floor and pulled Piper close to her and sealed their lips together. All Alex could taste was herself on Piper's lips but that just made her moan again.
"That was perfect," Alex murmured against the blondes lips.
"You deserved it," Piper replied and kissed Alex sloppily on her neck but the brunette quickly rearranged them so that she could strip Piper of the clothes and she showed the blonde how much she'd missed her over the years.
oOoOo
When the two women collapsed at the front of the chapel completely spent, after what felt like hours later, their breathing started to calm and voices were heard from the close by corridor. The two girls immediate sprung up and quickly redressed. Piper was just tying her last boot and Alex was quickly patting down her hair as Morello and Nichols walked in laughing like they always were.
"Would you look at that, Morello," Nichols said pointing towards where Alex and Piper were stood who we bother trying their hardest not to touch the other one. "And you said you weren't a lesbian, Chapman."
"I'm not," Piper replied but it was said too quickly and blurted rather than spoken and Nichols just raised an eyebrow at her.
"Whatever you say. Just don't fuck our girl over again." Nichols said it with humour but the clear message was understood by Piper who nodded and finally reach out to link her fingers with Alex's.
"We'll just be going," Alex murmured. "We need to talk and you two obviously came in here for a reason." She winked towards Morello who blushed as red as her lips and Piper raised her eyebrow knowingly to Nichols who just rolled her eyes.
Alex pulled on Piper's hand and led her from the room and just as they left, the obvious moan from Morello was heard.
"I'm glad they're finally sorting it out," Piper mused as she followed the brunette back to her cube knowing most of the other girls would be in the other zones having a bit of free time. Well as much as you can get in a prison.
"Yeah, sorting is clearly the right word for that situation," Alex replied and though Piper couldn't see her face, you could almost hear the eye roll in her voice.
The two made it back to the cube and sat down as they had previously. Almost immediately, Alex lifted her knees up to her chest, hugging her knees with her arms, as if protecting herself whereas Piper sat crossed legged and rested her arms on her knees.
"I realise I didn't actually say much earlier," Alex admitted looked slightly past Piper. "But I guess I made my intentions clear. I love you, Piper and I don't want to get hurt. If we do this again, you can't walk out of me. Even when your sentence is up, you have to promise me that you'll wait for me."
As if by natural reaction, Piper reached out and grasped Alex's hand in hers and started to rub her thumb over the tattooed girl's knuckles.
"I'm not going anywhere," She promised sincerely. "You're all I think about and you always have been. I love you, too. I won't leave you again. I can't leave you. I'm afraid you're stuck with me."
"I wouldn't have it any other way, kid."
Alex untangled her legs and leant forward to kiss Piper but as soon as their lips touched there was a cry of, "Inmates!" from one of the COs.
"Fuck," Piper groaned and they quickly leaned back.
"Before we continue though, there's something I have to confess," Alex said suddenly and, as if by instinct, Piper held her breath and grasped Alex's hand tighter. "I named you at my trial."
