Chapter 2
Alex POV
Just a normal Friday night, I got a call from my best friend Nicky around 6, I already knew what she wanted before even picking up the phone. 'VAUSE ITS FRIDAY, MEET YOU AT 8 AT THE LITCH, LOOK HOT I NEED TO GET LAID' I laugh, see you tonight Nichols' I end the phone, and get back to work, knowing I won't get much done tomorrow due to the hangover I can already tell ill have, it always ends up that way when it's a night with Nicky
8:30pm my watch reads as I finally walk into the bar, better late than never I think to myself.
'Yo Vause, glad you could make it' Nicky practically shouted at me. 'When do I ever not make it, seriously Nichols? At least I had time to brush my hair though' I say with a smug smile on my face.
I sit down next to her and ruffle that huge hair of hers 'How very original of you Vause, I haven't heard a hair joke before. Now shut the fuck up, you need to play catch up' She says passing me a vodka shot. I take the shot out of her hands, we laugh and clink our glass together, 'CHEERS' we both shout.
'Yo Vause, blondie at the bar, she looks new and lost, maybe she needs a tour guide' I turn around to look in the direction Nicky is pointing. My eyes reach what my best friend is looking at and im sure my breathing gets stuck in my throat, I am mesmerised by this woman, her long thin lets that her skinny jeans are showing off, as well as her nice round ass, my eyes continue up her body, her toned stomach I can see through the very thin crop top. I am brought out of my gaze when I feel Nicky stand up next to me, I quickly come back to my senses and walk past her shouting back 'My round Nichols' with a wink I turn to face the bar, and the beautiful woman stood in front of it.
'Can I have a vodka, 2 tequila shots and a margarita please?' That's the first thing I hear approaching the bar, here goes nothing I think to myself 'It's a little cold out for a margarita don't you think?' She turns to face me, and our eyes connect, her eyes are the colour of the ocean and I can't seem to look away. I see her eyes flicker down my body, and my confidence comes back 'Like what you see, kid?' I ask, she doesn't reply, she just keeps her eyes flickering from my eyes to my lips. The waitress comes over with her drinks, but she still keeps her eyes on me so I turn to her and tell her to put it on my tab, with two bottles of beer and 2 more shots for me and Nichols, who must be staring right now but I couldn't care enough to turn around, I wanted to get back to the blonde in front of me.
'So-rr-y' she says in the cutest voice I think I've ever heard 'No need to be sorry kid, im quite flattered I give her the signature Vause smirk 'So blondie, you got a name?' 'Piper, Piper Chapman' she says and im happy shes found her voice this time. 'Nice to meet you Piper Chapman, I'm Alex Vause' I hold my hand out for her to shake, and im happy she does. When her hands touch mine, Im sure I felt and spark but I put it down to the shot, I lift her hand up and kiss it gently while locking my eyes with her once more. She doesn't look away, she doesn't pull her hand a way either, she just keeps her eyes locked on mine with a shy smile on her face and her cheeks turning a darker shade of pink.
I lean forwards still holding her hand and whisper 'I will see you later Pipes' the use of the nickname is a shock to me too, I once again give her my smirk as I grab my drinks and walk over to Nicky.
'Losing your touch Vause? You didn't even get her number, should of let me have a go show you how it's done' Nicky says as I reach the table. I put the drinks down in front of us and take a seat next to her. 'The night is still young Nichols, maybe you should look for your own girl tonight, because I'm definatley taking that one home' I look back over to the bar, and I see Piper looking over, I raise my shot glass to her and see her giggle and look to the floor as her friend walks back over to her.
Many beers, and too many shots later I see Piper on the dance floor alone, she's obviously drunk by the way she's dancing, I look to see where Nicky's gone and I see her walking hand and hand with a brown-haired woman into the bathroom, I down the rest of my beer before standing up walking to the dance floor to join this woman who has grabbed my attention all night. She doesn't see me coming, so I use this to my advantage when I reach her she has her back to me 'I promised I would see you later, Pipes' she turns around on her heels and looks at me, her blue eyes darker than when I looked into them before. The alcohol must of given her a confidence boost because as soon as she realised who I was she pulled me closer, and put one arm around my neck. 'Alex, will you dance with me, Polly's left me and I really don't want to go home' she pulls away and looks me deep in the eye, and in a low voice so low I almost missed she added 'yet'.
I follow her lead and wrap my arms around her back feeling her soft skin on my fingers, it felt so right being this close to her, although something about this girl was making my heart beat faster than normal.
' Of course, show me what you've got' I say in the huskiest voice I can, and im sure I can see her shiver by my words.
After around an hour of grinding, dancing, laughing, teasing and flirting she pulls me off the dancefloor, but out of breath and a little sweaty. 'Wanna grab a drink?' I say, realising all that dancing had sobered us both up a little bit, and knowing I need a drink to calm the nerves that arise around this girl.
'Yes, please although im buying this one because I realised after you left earlier you bought mine for me' She smiles and walks in front of me grabbing my hand and pulling me behind her.
We sit at a table with our drinks looking around I notice the club has quietened down a little, the conversation flowed easy between us, although I had to thank the drink that was now topping up my alcohol level. I move round the table to sit next to her, I put my arm round her loosely, just enough to feel the warmness from her contact. ' I'm going to be honest here Piper, here is the part when I would normally say anything you wanted to hear to get you to come home with me, and if you want to we can go now' I smirk and look at her before I continue ' However, something about you seems different, and I would really like to take your number and maybe meet sometime this weekend to talk… sober' she giggles a little bit and pulls out her phone, and I pull out mine we punch in the digits on each others phone and I put mine back in my pocket. I see her looking at her phone, with a hint of fear in her eyes. I instinctively put my arm back around her, not liking the look I saw something inside me was telling me to protect this girl. She puts her phone back in her pocket, and mutters that she's got to go. 'Wait' I say and she looks into my eyes once more 'Let me take you home, can't have a beautiful woman wandering around NYC at this time of night'. I see her release a breath I didn't realise she was holding, I stand up and grab her hand, instantly our fingers interlink and it feels so right. I hold the door open for her as we exit the club, it was quite a warm night however that didn't stop me pulling her into me, and she pushed her body back into me trying to get closer. I look down at her taking in her beauty under the street lights and the moon light, and I finally get the courage to do something I've wanted since I walked up to that bar hours before. I turn her around gently to face me and I can see in her eyes she knows what I am going to do, she doesn't stop me, and I cant sense any fear in her eyes, only passion. I close the gap between us, and our lips collide, they instantly find a gentle rhythm together, I pull away to look into her eyes to make sure she is okay with what is happening, when I hear her whisper ' I don't want to go home'
