A/N: Thank you for all your lovely reviews! I read through every one of them and it means the world to know that you all love the story. A lot goes on in this chapter so it's quite longer than all of the others. Hope you enjoy this one! Sorry for any typos & Happy New Year!
As soon as the doors to her wardrobe swing open, Piper can feel her calm and confident conduct wash away and instead turn in to uncontrollable nerves with a hint of fear accompanying it. Her eyes scan over each and every item of clothing in her closet but absolutely nothing jumps out at her. Sure, she has plenty fancy dresses but she didn't want just fancy. No, she wanted sexy. She wanted to look desirable. Piper wanted to make Alex completely lost for words as soon as she laid her eyes her and to be putty in her hands simply because of how incredible she looked. Sadly though, Piper didn't actually own anything that fit such a description, so instead she settled for a coral coloured dress that came up to her mid-thigh and shows off her long and shapely legs, also leaving her arms bare and her perfectly formed collar bones on show. She changed out of her comfortable loungewear and eased herself in to her dress, awkwardly bending her arm over her head so she could pull up the golden zip that rested in-between her shoulder blades and comes all the way down to the small of her back. She perched herself on the edge of her bed and slipped on a pair of tall black stilettos and once they was comfortably on her feet, she stood and made her way over to her dresser where a gold necklace and matching bracelet lay on top of it.
Piper had a plan. She was going to beat Alex at her own game, she was going to play hard to get. She wasn't going to act like a pathetic little school girl like she has done the past couple of times she's encountered the brunette. This time she was going to be the exact opposite, she wasn't going to be too hard to get because if she puts up this barrier that seems almost impossible to get across Alex will get bored and give up, which would be the worst thing that could happen. Piper didn't want to come across as easy or inexperienced or worst of all, desperate. Desperation is a huge turn off in Pipers book so she was hoping to be anything but that. She wanted to be a little bit of a tease and get revenge for what the raven haired girl did to her while she was stood in her doorway ready to go home the previous day. It was stupid of Alex to think that she could tease Piper by trailing her fingers up and down her arm and come within millimeters of kissing her without actually doing so and get away with it, she was obviously going to get a taste of her own medicine at some point.
Piper picked up her clutch bag as she made her way to the front door but before she could get there, her phone started ringing and she sighed when she looked at the caller ID.
"Pol I can't talk right now, I'm busy." She strode towards the exit of her apartment and swung the door open, stepping out into the rather chilly corridor of her building and she carefully pressed her phone between her cheek and shoulder so she could lock her door with both hands.
"This won't take long I promise, I just need a couple of minutes." Polly pleaded from the other end of the line.
Piper took hold of her phone once she had locked the door and quickly made her way down one flight of stairs and outside all while Polly was still speaking. "Alright, be quick though."
The brunette paused as she listened to the faint sound of cars from Pipers end. "Are you outside?"
Piper raised one of her toned arms to hail a cab that was passing by and she rolled her eyes at her prying friend. "Yes I'm outside. I'm going out for drinks with someone if you really must know."
"Oh my god, who?"
Piper laughed at Polly's suddenly upbeat tone and she quietly muttered Alex's address to the awaiting taxi driver as she clambered into the back seat, her heart pounding with nerves. "Is it really that surprising that I'm going on a date? Anyway Pol, get to the point."
A date. Piper scolded herself once she realised she had called her and Alex going out for drinks a 'date'. It wasn't a date, was it? Neither of them had actually specified what their outing was so maybe it was a date, who knows. As much as she didn't want to, Piper wished that tonight wasn't going to be just a friendly night out and she secretly wished for it be something more. The way that Alex came on to her while they had their movie day made the blonde believe that tonight actually meant something.
"Oh right sorry, I want you to come to my place some point during the week and help me out with seating arrangements for the wedding. You know, you are my Maid of Honour after all."
"Sure I'll sto-"Piper froze and she could practically see Polly's smug face, "Maid of Honour?"
"Yeah!"
A beaming smile spread across Pipers face that made her cheeks ache and she practically jumped in her seat, she was positive she has never been more overjoyed about anything in her entire life. "Holy shit Pol!" Displeasing eyes of the taxi driver looked at Piper through the rear-view mirror and she immediately toned down her excitement and mouthed Sorry to the grey eyes that watched her carefully. "I can't believe this, thank you!"
"No worries. You're the only person I actually like enough to make my Maid of Honour so it was a no brainer really."
Piper chuckled and crossed her right leg over her left, accidentally kicking the luckily empty seat in front of her. "Wait, weren't you supposed to pick the Maid of Honour months ago?"
"I did but I just didn't tell you. Have you not noticed that you've been doing practically everything one of them has to do?"
Now that Polly mentioned it, Piper realised that she has done everything the job of being someone's Maid of Honour requires. She's been to every dress fitting, helped shop for bridesmaids dresses and as much as she didn't want to, she has been the one that the bride has vented all of her problems to. Even though sometimes Polly was a pain in the ass she still was Pipers best friend and the blonde was flattered that she has been picked to play such a vital role. "Pol I really can't thank you enough. I'm so excited for the wedding!"
"Me too! The wait isn't too long now and I'm excited but crapping myself at the same time. Anyway I've gotta go, have fun on your date."
"I will. See you later." Piper removed her phone from her ear and hung up, tossing it into her clutch bag and fastening it together so everything inside of it was safe. She looked out of the window to the fast moving terrain and once the car ground to a halt at a red light, the blonde recognised where she was. Alex's apartment was just around the corner. Piper took a deep breath to try and calm her nerves and her foot tapped ridiculously fast on the floor of the taxi. "Come on Chapman. Don't be such a pussy."
Three loud knocks caught Alex's attention from the hallway and she quickly tidied her lipstick so she was sure the blood red colour was neat. Her heels similar in colour to her lips carried her out of her bedroom and her long legs brought her to her door seconds later. The door swung open to reveal Piper standing incredibly straight with a coquettish grin on her face, her azure eyes scanning each and every inch of Alex's elegant frame. The taller girl was dressed in a skin tight black dress with a plunging neckline that gave Piper a view she was most certainly not complaining about. The length of the dress was only a little shorter than the blondes and Alex watched the girl as her eyes slowly scanned over her slender legs. Her porcelain complexion gave off a radiant glow and the only make up that adorned her face was vivid red lipstick and the usual perfectly winged eyeliner that Piper has never seen her without.
"Hey." Alex spoke once she made eye contact again with Piper, her husky tones causing the blonde to tightly grip her clutch bag. Playing it cool might actually be harder than she thought.
"Hey." Piper replied, her tone thankfully level.
"You look nice."
A small smile spread across the shorter girl's face, her posture relaxing slightly. "Thanks. You don't look too bad yourself."
After a brief pause Alex stepped out from the confines of her home and onto the hallway next to Piper, shutting the door behind her. "Are you ready to go?"
"Sure. Where are we even going?" Alex brushed past her and her long strides already created quite a distance between the two, Piper spun around on her heel and briskly caught up to the woman who was now holding open for her the door to the main entrance of the building.
"Oh it's nowhere special, just this nice little place not too far from here." Piper exited the warm apartment building and the cold evening air caused her to shiver, her bare arms tightly folding together in an attempt to keep warm. Alex followed her on to the surprisingly bare street and hurried over to a reasonably old black Mercedes parked up that Alex had spent pretty much her entire life savings on a couple of years ago. Her cold fingers found her keys and she unlocked the doors to the car and stepped to the side as she gracefully opened the passenger door, "After you."
Piper obliged and strolled over to the car and grinned at the brunette before dipping her head so she could take a seat on the comfortable leather passenger seat. Once Piper was in the car, Alex shut the door and made her way to the driver's side and opened the door so she could place herself next to the blonde who was patiently waiting to get going. As Alex sat down beside her and closed the door behind her, a strong smell of vanilla and honey hit her instantly and she bit down on her lip to stop a groan from escaping. Piper shifted in her seat and looked over at Alex who was firmly gripping the wheel despite not starting the car yet and her azure eyes slowly made their way down to the brunettes chest that was on show and she left them there for slightly too long.
Alex shifted abruptly in her seat once she had composed herself and Pipers wandering eyes snapped back up. Her hand that was still holding the keys to the car moved from the steering wheel towards to ignition and a few moment later the immobile vehicle came to life, breaking the silence that enveloped the pair.
Alex's hand opened the door for Piper and she stepped to the side allowing the other girl to pass by. Piper stepped in to a lobby-like area and was stunned by her surroundings. Beautiful paintings hung from cream painted walls in luxurious gold frames and in the far corner of the room a large vase with meticulous patterns all over its ceramic surface held a huge bunch of white roses that Piper couldn't take her eyes off. Next to it was a large door guarded by a middle aged man dressed in a black suit with slicked back hair standing behind a podium that came up to just below his ribs. Piper stood in the middle of the room absolutely astounded at the fact Alex brought her to quite possibly one of the classiest, most exclusive and not to forget expensive restaurants in the whole of New York.
This is definitely a date.
Alex strolled past Piper and made her way over to the member of staff by the door and waited for him to finish writing down something in a small book that rested on the podium. Once he had noticed the intimidating brunette's presence, he placed down his pen and looked up at her.
"I have a reservation in the name of Vause."
"Vause…" He trailed off and began flicking through the small book he had just finished writing in and stopped suddenly on a particular page, tracing his index finger down the long list of names in search for Alex's. "Ah here we are, table for two?"
Alex nodded in confirmation and the very formally dress man stepped out from behind his podium and made his way to the large wooden doors. Piper wandered over to the brunette's side, still amazed at her surroundings and slowly followed her in to the following room. As the doors opened and the two women were led inside Piper let out a small gasp of astonishment and Alex smirked by the side of her.
The large room was painted cream like the entrance area and an exquisite chandelier hung from the ceiling in the centre of the grandiose room, its crystals reflecting beams of light in several directions and the blonde stared up at it amazed at its beauty. Vases of white roses are scattered across the large floor occupied by tables with pristine white table cloths draped over them and an array of different types of cutlery and plates arranged perfectly on them. The two women followed the suited staff member as he wove in an out of several different tables that had people dressed in clothing items more expensive than Piper and Alex's entire wardrobes combined.
"Here we are." The gentleman gestured to the table with two empty seats tucked underneath it and both women thanked him for escorting them to their seats.
Alex pulled out a chair from underneath the table and looked towards Piper who was still a little dazed, "Care to take a seat?" She joked.
Piper chuckled and made her way over to the seat that Alex was holding out for her and lowered herself down into it as the brunette gently pushed it underneath her before making her way to the opposite side of the table and taking a seat for herself. Piper looked around the room with fascinated eyes, still unable to comprehend the lengths that Alex has gone to.
"Alex…this is, this is amazing. What happened to nothing special?" Alex grinned as she heard her words that she said back at her apartment recited back to her.
"I wanted it to be a surprise. Do you like it?"
"Like it? I've never been somewhere as amazing as here. How much did this cost you?"
Alex wasn't going to admit it but getting a reservation at such a prestigious restaurant certainly wasn't cheap. She knew she needed to go all out to impress Piper because Alex knew if she disappointed tonight it would take a lot of hard work to redeem herself and by the looks of the younger girls stupefied expression, she luckily wouldn't have to do such a thing. Alex didn't exactly have stupid amounts of money lying around to pay for the meal so she had to take money from her savings that she only ever used when bills for the store needed paying, so far a couple thousand dollars had been saved but that meant nothing considering how far behind Alex was on paying her bills. Taking out a couple hundred dollars to pay for meal just meant the brunette would be more behind than usual. That didn't bother Alex really, she had become quite good at persuading the bill collectors to give her extra time to earn the money so she could keep her store, so treating Piper with the money that she was supposed to be saving was no big deal. At this moment in time, impressing Piper was more important than worrying about a store that will inevitably close down no matter how hard Alex tried to stop it.
The raven haired girl shrugged, causing soft curls to shift slightly on her shoulder. "It doesn't matter how much it cost. As long as you like it, I'm happy." A large smile broke out on Pipers face and Alex paused for a brief moment and smirked, "But you better like it because getting a reservation here was a pain in the ass."
A low groan escaped from Pipers lips as she swallowed the final mouthful of the piquant strawberry cheesecake and the spoon that she finally figured out was the dessert spoon was placed on the scraped clean plate.
The dinner had turned out better than what both of the women had expected it to. Piper's cheeks were aching because of all the smiling she had been doing and both of them would possibly have sore throats from laughing so much. The conversation only ever stopped when what they ordered arrived at the table and the starving pair stared at the plate of food that was prepared to an artist's standard with wide eyes and a rumbling belly. Piper found herself laughing for longer when she should have when Alex was momentarily blind because the heat from her steak that came with an array of different greens and vegetables that the brunette had never tried before or even heard of caused her glasses to steam over.
After a number of not so accidental leg touches under the table and one or two flirtatious comments that caused Piper to blush furiously, dessert arrived. Piper ordered the cheesecake that she was now wiping up any leftovers from the blindingly white plate with her finger and Alex ordered a slice of chocolate cake that she was still eating due to it being much larger than she thought it would be. The raven haired girl was amazed at how much food Piper could actually eat, looking at her slender frame you would think she has the appetite of a child but she has definitely been proved wrong because Alex is sure she has never seen someone eat a plate of food so quickly in her entire life. Piper is quicker than Nicky when it comes to eating and that is certainly an achievement.
The blonde scrunched up the napkin that was no longer of any use to her and dropped it down on to her plate, "So yeah like I was saying, we make the soaps in Polly's kitchen and then once they're all finished we package them up and go to little farmers markets and sell them. We're getting into Barneys."
"Barneys huh?" Piper nodded with a proud look on her face. Alex had asked her what she actually did as a job because all that she seemed to do was lie around doing nothing. As soon as the question was brought up Piper sat up straight and her eyes flashed with life at Alex showing interest in what she does. For the past fifteen minutes she had been in her element and had only stopped speaking when there was food in her mouth and the brunette was watching her amazed at how much she had to say about her little soap business. PoPi was its name? Alex can't remember. "I know if I ever urgently need soap I can count on you."
"We make lotions too."
Alex laughed and took another bite of her chocolate cake that was nowhere near finished, "Wow you're the full package."
A smirk formed on the blondes face as she leaned back in the plush seat and her right elbow rested on the padded chair arm and a comfortable silence enveloped the pair. After a couple of seconds passed, Piper opened her mouth to speak once again, "This might be a weird question but I'm going to ask anyway."
Alex took one last bite of her dessert and placed he fork down next to the half-eaten cake that no matter how much she wanted, her stomach couldn't take any more food. "Ask away."
The younger girl paused and looked down at the crease free table cloth as she tried to think of the best way to word her question and Alex looked in to her wandering eyes as she waited for what the girl was about to say.
"What is it about books that fascinate you so much? The store, all the books in your apartment, it might seem weird but I'm just a little curious to know why you love them so much."
Alex watched Piper as she spoke, she watched the way she talked with her hands and she listened to how she really did sound interested about why the hell Alex loves books so much. It was a perfectly reasonable question, Alex had never met someone who had such a passion about literature like she does and the amount of books she owns is borderline ridiculous so it was normal for Piper to be a little curious. "I don't know really. They're just…it's like…" Alex halted her current speech and raised both of her eyebrows a little as her mind went completely blank, it was harder than she thought to formulate a reply to such an easy question.
"I love them because when I read, no matter what book it is, it's like an escape. When I was a kid I hated school, like really hated it. I used to come home day after day to an empty house because my mom was out working like she always was and I used to go and sit in my room for hours in bed reading. It was like when I read I was put in the shoes of the characters and all of the shit that was happening in my life didn't matter anymore because I could be someone else for a little while. It's like that now too, whenever I'm in a bad mood or even when I'm bored of sitting around doing nothing I pick up a book and I zone out for a couple of hours. With the store, it's like my second home. Even though about ten people come in to it a day and maybe double that on a good day, I love being there. Being surrounded by so many books that each have their own individual and unique stories makes me happy. As cheesy as it probably sounds, books make me happy."
Piper stared at Alex completely lost for words. She had no idea something so simple could mean so much to someone and there was no way she could come up with anything intelligent to say so instead she sat there with a dumbfounded expression.
"As much as I love the store though, it's really stressing my out recently because of how badly it's doing."
"What do you mean?" Piper said with a hint of concern in her tone.
Alex sighed and looked down at her hands that lay on the table, palms facing downwards. "Money is a little tight and the bill collectors are being assholes. It's nothing I can't handle though."
Piper sat up straight and placed both of her hands on the table so she was mirroring the brunette's position, her expression suddenly serious. "I can help you."
Alex's eyes widened and her eyebrows rose in surprise. This is exactly the opposite of what she wanted, she didn't want to play the sympathy card so Piper would help her like her knight in shining armour, Alex hated looking weak and there was nothing worse to her than looking like she was in trouble and this was exactly how she's accidentally made herself out to be. "You can help me?"
Piper nodded, "I have some money in the bank that I got from my grandmothers will and I haven't touched it once because I haven't needed it for anything, you can use that to pay all the bills and get your store back on its feet."
Alex girl shook her head and furrowed her brows. Piper wants to give Alex money from her grandmothers will to pay bills for a store she has only ever stepped foot in twice? Alex new the girl was naïve but this was really something else. "No, no I can't take your money. Like I said this is nothing I can't handle."
The blondes hand moved across the table and placed itself on top of Alex's, the pair of rings on her tanned skin was cold against her own but the heat radiating from her palm felt like fire on Alex's skin. Her stern expression and firm grip proved that Piper was anything but joking.
"I can't take your mo-"
"Alex." The brunette raised her eyebrows in shock at Pipers sudden stern demeanour and a small smirk grew on her red lips, she liked the way Piper was taking charge. Alex liked this side of her.
Piper tightened her grip slightly on Alex's hand and the smirk only grew wider on her face, Pipers expression though was still deadly serious. "I want you to take the money. You need it more than I do."
Alex looked at the pleading woman in front of her with disapproving eyes. She didn't want Pipers money but she knew even If she said no the blonde wouldn't give up without a fight and one way or another that money will end up in Alex's bank whether she wanted it there or not, so there was no point wasting her breath protesting, "Fine."
Piper's stern expression morphed in to one of pure joy and a wide smile that showed off almost her entire top row of spectacularly white teeth grew on her face, her hand still firmly attached to Alex's. "Good! Even if you said no, I wouldn't have stopped trying to persuade you."
Alex laughed quietly, "Oh I know." She didn't know how much money she would be receiving off the blonde but any amount would pull her out of the hole she had got herself into. Now that money would be coming in, Alex could pay off the bills and get the pathetic bill collector that insists that Alex calls him 'Mr Crockett' off her back and if there is anything left over she can renovate the store and buy new stock that will attract more customers and generally make the store more modern. Alex didn't want the money but she really did need it. She removed her free hand from the table surface and placed it on top of Pipers and slowly traced her thumb across her knuckles, causing a warm feeling to spread like wildfire throughout the blondes whole body.
"Thank you, Piper."
The passenger door to the car swung open and Piper strolled past the brunette that was politely holding the door open for her. "You're such a good host," the blonde quipped as she slumped herself down in to the soft leather seat and Alex laughed out loud as she shut the door and made her way around to the other side of the car and within seconds she was sat comfortably in the driver's seat. Piper had some of material from her dress in between her fingers and was playing with it idly. "I had a really good time tonight."
Alex turned her body slightly in her seat so she was looking at Piper who had a content smile on her face as she looked directly in to the brunette's captivating irises. "Same here kid."
"I don't think I've eaten so much in my entire life," Piper laughed and released the material of her dress from between her fingers so her hand could move to her extremely full belly.
The brunette adjusted her glasses so they rested more snugly on her nose and Pipers contagious laughter caused a small chuckle to escape from Alex's lips. After a couple of laughter filled moments the small space inside of the car went silent and Alex looked at the girl sat by her side with a glimmer of longing in her eyes. "You look beautiful tonight, Pipes."
The blonde raised her eyebrows and just stared at Alex. No one really called her beautiful and actually meant it, and by Alex said those words it sounded like she one hundred percent meant what she said. Only Larry had ever called her beautiful before which was expected of him really because he was her boyfriend and almost fiancé. Not even her mom called her beautiful, the only compliment that ever came out of her mouth was 'Oh you look pretty today Piper' and that was it.
"You look beautiful too." Piper spoke quietly and Alex wasn't sure if she actually heard her right, but a warm and genuine smile grew on the blondes face and Alex mirrored her expression. A small strand of hair fell over blue eyes as Piper shifted in her seat but she made no efforts to tuck it back behind her ear. Alex's hand rose from her lap and advanced towards the blonde's flawless face but she recoiled from the contact, confused by what was going on but the reassuring gaze of Alex made her taut muscles ease. The raven haired girl's cold fingers brushed across Pipers cheek and slowly tucked the stray strand behind her ear that was decorated by a simple diamond stud. Piper's lips parted at the contact and her eyes roamed over every inch of Alex's face until they finally focused on her inviting lips, the brunette trailed her hand over Pipers jaw leaving a trail of incredible heat despite her icy touch until her hand finally rested on the crook of her neck, her thumb slowly and gently moving back and forth on her skin. All that could be heard was the pounding heartbeats of both of the women and the quiet sound of steady breaths; both of their eyes were devoid of any teasing and instead filled with lust and desire. The sexual tension and the lust for one another that had been building up between them ever since they first met now has got to the point where enough is enough. Piper's plan of playing hard to get was out of the window because all she wanted now was to feel Alex's lips on hers. She wanted Alex and she wanted her sooner rather than later.
The trademark smirk that usually adorned Alex's features is long gone and her red lips are parted much like Pipers and her eyes are dominated by the black void of her pupils that only seems to be growing in size, her mind is clouded over and she can't form any coherent thoughts about what the hell is going on apart from that Piper is the most beautiful, sexy and the most perfect human being she has ever come across and trying not to press her lips against hers was impossible and it required willpower that Alex didn't have. Her hand that still rested on the blonde's neck eased the girl forwards and Piper obliged, her body shifted in her seat as her lips came painfully close to Alex's. The brunette lowered her gaze so she was looking at Pipers lips and the smell of her faded vanilla perfume filled her nose, only making her want the blonde more and Alex finally decided that she's had enough of all of the teasing and the waiting.
Her lips pressed against Pipers, the kiss is unsteady at first, almost like they are testing the waters but Pipers hand tangles itself within raven locks and she pulls Alex closer, deepening the kiss as she let go of all her worries and the feeling of elation electrified within her body because of just how relieved she was that she was finally kissing Alex. The brunettes lips are soft and sweet and she takes the lead as her hand moves up from Pipers neck and rests on her cheek as she pulls her impossibly close into the fervour kiss.
Piper breaks away first and she finds herself panting as she rests her forehead against Alex's, her fingers still tangled within her hair, "Your place, now."
Alex is surprised she made it out of the car in one piece.
The whole journey Piper was trailing her hand across Alex's thighs and placing teasing kisses up and down her neck as Alex tried her best to focus on the road. As soon as the car pulled up in front of the tall apartment building both bodies practically jumped out of the car and Alex led Piper by the hand into her apartment, slamming the door loudly behind her. Pipers back slammed against the wall in the dark hallway and she feels hands drag across her hips and a low moan is muffled by a passionate kiss. Alex's probing tongue trailed over Pipers bottom lip and her mouth opened wider allowing Alex's tongue to enter her mouth. Piper tastes of the expensive restaurant wine and honey and Alex can't get enough, she grabs Piper by the hips and removes her body from the wall, her emerald eyes open momentarily so she can see where she is going. Piper finds herself walking backwards and almost tripping over the discarded bags that had been dropped upon arrival while her and Alex's tongues battle for dominance and hands rake over one another's body. Once the pair was in the living room Piper broke the kiss, chastely kissing Alex on the jaw once before pushing her down on to the couch behind her. Piper pulled up her dress slightly so the tight material no longer restricted the movement of her legs and she tossed her hair over her shoulder as she straddled Alex's thighs, surprising herself at just how confident she was coming across.
Alex splayed her hands across Pipers back as her teeth trapped the blondes lip and a moan escaped from her open mouth, but the pain of Alex's teeth biting down hard was quickly forgotten about and was instead replaced with overwhelming pleasure. The brunette's hands confidently move around Pipers waist to her ass and both of her hands squeeze roughly, causing Piper to tighten her grip on the brunette's arm so hard that she wouldn't be surprised if a bruise formed. Alex placed open mouthed kisses along Pipers jaw and down to her neck and the blonde closed her eyes and knocked her head back to grant the dominant brunette better access to her bare neck. Alex's teeth graze Pipers neck with her teeth and she bites down on the soft skin before soothing the sensitive area with her tongue. As she continues her attack her hands make their way up to the zipper of Pipers dress and it is vigorously tugged open and the material is pulled away from her skin by Alex's desperate hands.
Piper is aware things are moving fast. Maybe even a little too fast but who the hell cares? The blonde didn't care that a mere fifteen minutes ago Alex was calling her beautiful and now she was straddling the brunette's lap as Alex kissed her like her life depended on it while her hands trailed up and down her body, her nails scratching at her exposed back. Piper needed Alex and it was only now that she was so close to having her than she realised it.
The two of them was so captivated by one another and so desperate to explore the others body that they didn't hear the muffled slam of the apartment door.
Alex returned her mouth to Pipers and her probing tongue was granted entrance to her mouth, her dexterous fingers tugged down the blonde's strap of her black lace bra leaving her shoulder bare. Piper grinds her hips against Alex's and her hands move to the back of her dress as the kiss deepens, but before Pipers unsteady fingers could get a firm grip on the zipper of the dress she so desperately wanted to remove, a loud thud from behind her startled her.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" The quiet moans and heavy breaths halt at the sound of the aggressive and unfamiliar voice from behind. Alex looked over the bare shoulder of Piper and her eyes widened at the sight and the blonde felt Alex's entire body go stiff. Piper felt a firm hand grab her by the shoulder and drag her away from the sofa and on to her feet.
"What are you doing, let go of me!" Piper shouted as she forcefully freed her shoulder from the strangers painful grip. She turned to Alex as she pulled up her dress and zipped up as much of it as she could but the brunette was just sat there with fearful eyes.
"Who the fuck are you?" Piper snarled but the rage filled eyes of the shorter woman made Pipers confidence disappear and she stepped back through fear. She had never seen this person in her entire life, did she know Alex? Who was she? Piper's eyes scanned over her body, she was dressed in tight fitting jeans and a basic sweatshirt and what seemed to be a large travel bag was dumped on the floor which must have been the cause of the loud thud.
"Who am I?" She let out a bitter laugh and Piper furrowed her brows in confusion, "I'm her girlfriend."
