AN: This is my first fanfiction, ever! Please read and suggest ideas, it'd be much appreciated. In this AU, Alex went to prison but Piper didn't. I'll probably switch POVs each chapter or so.

'What was I thinking? How in the world did I let Nicky talk me into to this? GOD, I'm such a fucking idiot!' Alex thought to herself as she walked towards the doors outside the church. She was panicking, big time. She was about to do something very crazy, stupid even.

Ever since that stupid, stupid, goddamn letter was sent to her, she has been tormented by her thoughts. At the time, Alex was still at Litchfield, with six months left out of her six year sentence. Ever since that letter was sent, it was all that occupied her mind.

It was years since she last heard from that uppity blonde with ocean-blue bambi eyes. Piper. Just thinking about her made Alex extremely confused. When she had read the name of the sender, a rush of emotions slapped her in her face. Anger. Remorse. Guilt. Shock. And worse of all, love. She hated herself for even thinking of Piper in that way again. After leaving her in Paris, when her mom died, for heaven's sake, she hated her. But she had this hold on Alex. Alex had growled out loud at her thoughts.

After so long, over a decade, Piper had finally reconnected with Alex. How did she even find me? Alex thought. One single letter. Alex memorized it word for word.

Dear Alex,

I don't even know how to begin. After finding out you got sent to prison, I was hit with so many feelings. I couldn't stop thinking about you, your safety, and our past. You probably won't even open this letter…

Alex I need to talk to you. Please call me. 420-867-5309

Piper

Alex had nearly threw the letter away. Nearly. But she had a moment of weakness, one moment of complete emotion and curiosity. And she called her.

"I can't believe I'm doing this." Alex said out loud. She had debated on calling Piper for weeks. It took over her mind so much that she ate very little and drifted apart from her friends. Nicky eventually asked her "What the fucks up with your dopey ass?" All the memories of her and Piper flooded back to her.

She gave in and told Nicky all about her, how they met, their glorious travels, and how Piper left her when her mom died. And the letter. Nicky just looked at her with a smirk, "You still have feelings for that bitch. Call her you tall idiot."

So now here she was, walking towards the phones. Right before she dialed the number she hesitated. Alex had no idea what she wanted to say to Piper, IF she wanted to say something to her. But curiosity got the best of her. She pushed the buttons and waited as the phone rang.

One ring. Two rings. Three rings. Alex debated on hanging up on her. Then she heard Piper pick up.

"Alex?" The blonde asked in a hushed tone.

"Piper." Alex stated with a cold tenor.

"You read my letter. You called me." Piper said in a trance like fog.

"That's why I'm talking to you know. Why did you want me to call you?" Alex stated coldly. It took every ounce of her being to not open herself up to the girl who broke her heart.

"Look, I'm not expecting you to understand, but I want to say I'm sorry. I real—" Piper was cut off by Alex.

"After all these fucking years, you show up into my life again with 'sorry'?" Alex nearly shouted. Her anger bubbled over.

"Look I wasn't done. I know you probably hate me right now, and I understand. I was a horse's ass for leaving you when your mom died. I am really, truly sorry for that!" The blonde was raising her voice with each word. "I am starting my new life and I wanted to end my old one on friendly terms."

"Starting your new life, huh? What have you been up to all these years?" Alex replied, with a sarcastic tone. She would never admit it to the blonde but she was actually curious.

"I'm getting married. In eight months. Look Al, I really need to talk to you in person about this." Piper answered in an almost pleading voice.

"Who's the lucky girl? Or maybe a guy I guess…" The raven-haired girl snapped back. She was shocked with this news. 'God dammit Vause. You haven't spoken in years, of course she would move on.' Alex thought to herself.

"Please Alex! It's important!" The blonde begged. Alex didn't answer right away. She debated whether she wanted to see her again. She was still angry at Piper, but the chance of seeing her again made Alex's heart jump.

"Please." Piper stated, sounding so sad and lost. God did she know how to manipulate Alex.

"I'll add you on my visitation list. Come Saturday." Alex finally relented.

"See you then." Piper replied.

And that's how it begun. On the visitation day, Piper explained that she left then because she was afraid. She was afraid because she knew that she would carry another bag if Alex asked again. She was scared of herself because it frightened her how far she'd go for Alex.

They ended up talking about the past, the good, the bad, and the ugly. She started to realize how much she had missed Piper. The visitation ended on a good note. And now that WASPy, blonde is about to get didn't settle right in Alex.

On Alex's last day of her sentence, she confided in Nicky that she still loves Piper. Nicky had told her with a smirk, "You lezzy idiot falling for a straight girl." Nicky laughed so hardthat she had tears coming out of her eyes. "Obviously you have to crash the wedding."

So here she is now. After so many years of building her walls up to block her ex-girlfriend out, she was about to risk it all. She was mentally hitting herself. I'm here, might as well go through with it, she thought.

Each step she took towards the church doors felt like she was walking on hot nails. Alex was wearing a gorgeous black strapless dress that hugged her curves and left little to be imagined. Her hair was down, but curled. She was wearing black strapless heels to go with her dress. Damn I look hot.

She placed her hands on the door, it's now or never she thought. All she could think about was that blonde. Her sparkling blue eyes that lit up when she laughed. That laugh! Alex bit her lip as she walked into the hall.

Thankfully, no one noticed her yet. She looked around the church, scanning the room. She shivered with the thought of such a normal wedding. Her eyes danced around the guests until they fell on the bride.

God! She was just as she remembered. Piper wore a flowing white dress with a sweetheart neckline. The soft fabric was tight at the hips then flowed outwards. Her hair was up, in a curly bun. God she looked fucking beautiful the raven-haired girl thought.

"I missed you Alex."Piper said towards the end of the visitation.

"Missed you too, kid." Alex replied. When they got up to say goodbye, they hugged. Alex pulled her arms tight around Piper, as the blonde's face leaned into her shoulders. They reluctantly pulled apart from their close embrace. Piper's ocean-blue eyes lit up as they stared into Alex's emerald greens. Without thinking it through, Alex slowly kissed Piper's lips, softly. And Piper kissed her back.

Alex started to tune into what the priest was saying.

"If anyone objects to this marriage, speak now or forever hold your peace." Now was the time.

"I object!" Alex yelled across the room, slowly taking steps closer and closer to the bride. The entire room gasped as they stared at her. All Piper could do was stare wide eyed with her jaw gaping at her ex.

Alex came closer to Piper. She smirked and whispered into Piper's ear, "Hey kid, this is pretty cliché right?"
