Piper was curled on her couch in her and Polly's apartment reading a book when there was a knock on the door.
"Pol, can you get that? I'm at a really good part, the sister's about to die!" Piper shouted towards the direction of Polly's room.
She heard Polly marching towards the door, muttering something about a 'lazy lesbian' and tried to stifle her laugh at Polly's dramatic antics.
"Oh, you've got to be fucking kidding me." Polly said, slamming the door and marching over to where Piper was sitting. "Special fucking delivery for Ms. Chapman." She said, rolling her eyes, thrusting a huge bouquet of white roses and a package in her face and stomping back to her room, muttering that she doesn't even get a single rose when Pete comes.
Piper rolled her eyes again and smiled down at her roses. She then opened the package and pulled out a stunning black dress along with a note.
I think it's time we went on a proper date, Ms. Chapman. Put this on and I'll see you at seven.
It was signed with a little heart colored in and an A.
Piper couldn't suppress her smile. It had been a couple of weeks since Alex went home with her from the bar, and left Sylvie. And exactly two weeks since Sylvie officially moved out of Alex's apartments. They had been seeing each other whenever they could, but it was always just sex.
And now Alex wanted to take her on a date and she was overly giddy.
She looked over at the clock and jumped up when she saw it was five and rushed towards the shower, she wanted to look perfect for their first date.
...
She heard a knock on the door as she was putting in her last earring.
"Pol!" She shouted, hoping she got the message.
"Ya, ya.." She heard Polly mutter while swinging open the door.
"Wow, who would have thought you know how to dress up, supercunt!"
"Thanks, Holly" She heard Alex shoot back.
She made her way towards the front door before they could continue fighting, and stopped in her tracks when she saw Alex.
Her hair was perfectly curled, and her blue streaks were blended in perfectly. She was wearing a black dress that was similar to her own that fit her body like a glove. She looked amazing.
"Hey." Piper breathed out.
Alex's eyes snapped over to her and her whole face lit up. "Hey kid, you look great."
Piper blushed and smiled. "So do you."
"Oh for fucks sake, go! Before I hurl rainbow all over you lesbians." Polly yelled, pushing Piper towards the door.
Alex took Piper's hand and led her towards the car, where she opened Piper's door for her. Piper smiled at her and went to get in the car but Alex catches her arm and pulls her back up. She pushed a lock of blonde hair behind Piper's ear and smiled. "You really do look beautiful tonight." She said before pressing her lips to Pipers. When she pulled away Piper went to kiss her again. "Later, kid. We have plans, let's go."
Alex took her to an upscale Italian place in lower Manhattan, but that wasn't the best part. She paid to have the entire place shut down, so they were the only diners in the place. There were candles lit up at every table and romantic music playing and it was absolutely perfect.
Alex ordered the chef's special for both of them and a bottle of champagne for the table. When she was down ordering she smiled at Piper.
"Who would have thought that we'd end up here, huh kid?"
Piper smiled and reached over and took Alex's hand.
"I'm really glad that we are."
After dinner, Alex took her for a walk in central park. The air was warm, and Piper had a light buzz from the champagne they drank at dinner. Piper was perfectly content. She was leaning against Alex, and was just getting ready to kiss her when Alex pulled away.
"I have to tell you something, Pipes." Alex said, fidgeting with her glasses. Something she did when she was nervous.
"What is it? It's Sylvie, isn't it?" Piper said, drooping her shoulders and taking a step back from Alex.
Alex laughed and pulled Piper back into her arms. "No, it isn't Sylvie babe, relax." Alex said, rubbing her hands up and down Pipers arms. "Do you remember when we first met and I told you I worked for an international drug cartel?"
Piper looked at her and nodded, raising an eyebrow, urging Alex to continue.
"Well, I wasn't lying." Alex said bluntly. "I want to be honest with you Pipes, I don't want to keep anything from you because I really care for you. But if that's going to be an issue than we should probably cut this off now."
Piper paused, thinking this over. She knew she didn't want to leave Alex. But she also knew that what she was doing was illegal, and she didn't want to get in trouble. She looked up at Alex and saw the worry in her eyes. She didn't want to lose Piper just as much as Piper didn't want to lose her.
"Okay." Piper said calmly.
"Okay?"
"That's okay as long as I don't have to be involved at all. I don't want to know about anything that's going on."
Alex smiled and took her face in her hands and kissed her fiercely. "Not a problem, kid."
...
It had been a couple months since that day in central park, and things had been going great. Piper was unofficially living in Alex's upscale apartment with her, and from the amount of money Alex had been bringing in, Piper could only guess that meant she was doing well in her job. They were living in a perfect little bubble.
Piper was currently making hot chocolate waiting for Alex to get home from a meeting. A huge snow storm had come in early in the morning and the whole city was practically shut down. Alex called her an hour ago telling her she had to walk the fifteen blocks home because not a single taxi service was running.
Piper was suddenly struck with a thought and ran to their bedroom to change into warm clothes and a winter coat and made her way outside with two travel mugs of steaming hot chocolate.
She only had to wait fifteen minutes before she saw Alex rounding the corner towards their apartment. She tried not to laugh at Alex attempting to briskly walk through three feet of snow. As she got closer, Piper picked up a handful of snow and packed it together, hurling it in Alex's direction, hitting her square in the chest.
"What the fuck?" Alex looked up and her eyes met Piper.
"What the fuck are you doing out here, Piper? It's fucking freezing!"
Piper just giggled and threw another snowball in Alex's direction before running and hiding behind a parked car. She heard Alex shuffling around looking for her and then it got silent. She was just peeking her head over the car to find her when she was tackled down into the snow.
"Who do you think you're kidding, Pipes? Trying to start a war with me?"
Piper giggled as Alex had her pinned to the ground, the streetlights illuminating their faces and the snow falling down around them. Piper stuck her tongue out trying in vain to catch the snowflakes that were falling.
Alex laughed at her attempt, before abruptly stopping and staring at Piper with a serious expression on her face.
"What?" Piper Giggled.
"I love you." She whispered down to Piper.
Piper felt her heart leap into her throat at Alex's sentiment. That was the first time either one of them had said that. And the way Alex was looking at her, she knew she meant it. She had never felt so genuinely loved in her entire life. Alex made her feel special. Alex made her feel loved. Alex took care of her. Alex was all she could have ever asked for.
Piper reached her hands up and cupped Alex's cheeks and looked deep into her green eyes. "I love you too, Alex." She breathed out.
Alex smiled and leaned down, kissing Piper with such passion she could feel the heat building in between her legs. Piper tangled her hands into Alex's long black hair, craving more.
And as if Alex read her mind, she suddenly lifted Piper's shirt, placing open mouthed kisses to her torso, working her way up towards Pipers bra. Piper gasped at the sudden coldness on her back, making her suddenly aware that they were outside in the middle of the street.
"Alex, we can't" Piper gasped, trying to push Alex off of her.
This only seemed to encourage Alex. She worked her way up to Piper's ear, sucking her earlobe into her mouth before whispering with hot breath, "I think you're forgetting that I know what it takes to make you come, Piper. This will be fast."
Piper couldn't even argue as Alex slid her hand down into her pants, rubbing Piper through her underwear, before slipping beneath the underwear, and gliding her finger through Piper's wetness before roughly pushing two fingers into Piper, pumping at a fast pace.
Piper grasped Alex by her hair, pulling her down for a rough kiss. Alex didn't break tempo once. She moved her lips away from Piper, moving towards her neck, sucking the sensitive skin behind her ear. She could tell Piper was close by the noises that were coming out of her mouth, and the way she was scrunching her eyes together. Alex put her lips close to Piper's ear, "Come for me."
And on cue, Piper felt herself let go, clenching around Alex's fingers.
Once Alex removed her fingers, Piper suddenly realized how cold she was, her shirt was completely soaked through along with her pants.
Alex seemed to read her mind and lifted herself off of Piper, reaching down to scoop Piper in her arms like she was a baby.
"Let's get you a nice hot shower, kid."
Piper just nodded her head against Alex's shoulder, suddenly exhausted.
...
The rest of the night went by in a blur. Alex started a shower for Piper, waiting five minutes before joining her, where Piper returned the favor to Alex, three different times until they were both too spent and decided to call it an early night.
"Alex?" Piper asked as they were crawling into bed.
"What, babe?"
"Did you mean it?" Piper asked quietly
Alex didn't answer right away. And Piper wondered if she knew what she was talking about. But then Alex rolled over in bed and pulled Piper into her, placing a kiss to her temple.
"I've known from the second I met you that you would be different, kid. I've known since our first date that I loved you. I meant it with everything in me, Pipes. I really do love you."
Piper smiled into Alex's chest.
"I love you too, Al. So much."
...
It was a couple days later and Piper was getting ready to go meet Alex at the bar.
Alex had business to do tonight. And while Piper hated getting involved in that, it was their anniversary and Alex insisted business wouldn't take long and that they could celebrate afterwards, So Piper agreed to go.
She walked into the bar and looked around for the familiar long black hair, and huffed in frustration when she couldn't spot Alex right away. So she slumped herself into a seat at the bar and ordered a jack and coke to hold her over.
An hour and five jack and cokes later, Piper was pissed. She was still sitting alone at the bar and Alex had ignored five of her texts. She was just about to stand up and leave when she spotted a familiar flash of black and blue.
"Alex." She whispers out. Half angry, half relieved.
She starts walking towards her, but stops dead in her tracks when she watches a sleazy red head sling her arm around Alex's waist. And she can feel her eyes well up when she watches Alex lean into the red heads touch. Just like she would if it were Piper standing there.
Piper just stands there and stares for a minute, unsure of what to do, when she is suddenly overcome with rage.
She slams back the rest of her drink and proceeds to march over to Alex and the whore she's with and wedges herself between them.
"Happy fucking anniversary." She sneers in Alex's face. Slamming down the card she brought on the bar in front of them. And before Alex can even say anything, Piper turns on her feet and marches out of the bar.
...
She doesn't know where to go. Polly's been pissed at her since she moved in with Alex, and she doesn't want to go home because she knows Alex will eventually show up there.
So she walks, with nowhere to go. But she's filled with rage. Alex just told her that she fucking loved her three days ago and then she's wrapped up in some floozies arms on their anniversary? What the fuck?
She's brought out of her thought by her phone ringing. She doesn't even bother to check. She knows its Alex probably calling with some lame ass excuse that Piper doesn't want to hear. So she keeps walking.
She walks until her feet are numb and her body is blue from the cold when she finally decides to hail a cab back to the apartment. Once she gets into the cab she pulls out her phone and turns it back on. She has fifteen missed calls from Alex and one text. Alex never texts her, so she knows she must be pissed.
ALEX: Babe, where are you, I'll come get you. I'm worried.
Piper felt a twinge of guilt before it was replaced by anger. Like fuck she cared. She probably sent that after she finished fucking the red head. Fuck her.
When the cab pulled up, Piper threw a wad of cash at the driver and told him to keep the change and made her way up the steps to her home. She was nearly bombarded when she opened the door.
"Where the fuck have you been? I was getting ready to call the fucking police! Jesus Pipes, you look freezing. Let me get the shower going." Alex said, throwing her hands around while she rambled.
Piper just stood there, staring at Alex, waiting for her to finish.
"I looked all over town for you! I called you a million times. What the fuck was that in the bar?"
Piper snapped at this. "What the fuck was that? What the fuck were you doing, Alex! I waited at the fucking bar for an hour while you were all wrapped up with some cheap red head! On our fucking anniversary! Why the fuck did you insist on meeting me there? So I could watch you with your new fucking girlfriend? Is that your fucked up way of breaking up with me?" Piper yelled at Alex.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" Alex screamed, "That's my fucking job Piper! How the fuck else am I supposed to get new mules? I told you I had to fucking work for a bit. What? Do you think my job is just to go get drunk at a bar and bring home a shit ton of cash? Fuck no."
Piper could feel herself snapping as Alex yelled back at her. This wasn't how things were supposed to go. Alex was supposed to apologize and they were supposed to have hot sex for the rest of the night.
"Is that what I was? Just another fucking drug mule? Did you see me and think 'Oh look at that ditzy blonde, a couple drinks and some flirting I bet I can convince her to carry drugs across the world. But then did you decide that I was too good of a lay so you'd keep me around?" Piper spit back.
Alex opened and closed her mouth a couple times, dumbfounded. "Fuck you." She spat at Piper before storming back to her office, slamming the door behind her.
Piper knew she had stepped over the line the second the words left her mouth. But she couldn't help it. She was a hot head and she hated that Alex didn't apologize to her and made it seem like this was all her fault.
But it wasn't her fault. Alex was the one who was in the wrong. Not her. So she walked back to the bedroom, changed her clothes and climbed into bed. Alex would come in in a little bit and tell her how sorry she was and everything would be okay again. That's how it always went.
But when Piper woke up the next morning, Alex was not in bed. In fact, her side of the bed remained untouched, as if Alex hadn't been to bed at all last night.
So Piper got up, slipped on her robe and walked towards the sound of Alex furiously typing away in her office.
"Al?" Piper said, gently opening the door.
Alex didn't turn to face her like she normally did. In fact she didn't even acknowledge Piper at all.
"Al, baby. Have you been working all night? You need to get some sleep."
Alex whipped around in her chair, her eyes were tired, but they were angry.
"Is that really what you think of me Piper? That I picked you up in hopes of becoming a drug mule? That I would cheat on you the day of our anniversary knowing you were going to be in that very same bar?"
"I didn't know what to think Alex. All I know is I saw you wrapped up in some other girls arms and I was pissed. I've never seen you work before. I had no idea that's how you got mules. What was I supposed to think when I saw that?"
Alex slumped down in her chair, rubbing her hands tiredly over her face.
"No. You're right." She sighed, "You had every right to react the way that you did last night. Just, when you didn't come home and I couldn't get ahold of you and I was scared that you left for good. I shouldn't have yelled at you. I'm sorry"
Piper smiled and walked over and sat on Alex's lap, slinging her arms around her neck.
"I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have said those things to you last night. I didn't mean them. I just don't share well."
Alex smirked and pressed a kiss to Piper's temple.
"I'll tone down the flirting, deal?"
Piper smiled and kissed Alex on the lips.
"Deal."
"And if I'm not mistaken, I do believe we have an anniversary to make up for." Alex said, raising her eyebrows suggestively.
Piper smirked and pressed her lips to Alex's once more.
"I believe you're right."
