Alex's suitcase was sprawled out open on the floor:
Tight jeans (check),
v-necks (check),
vans and converse(check)
All her normal wear took up residency in the bag. Piper was looking through Alex's drawers trying to help convince her to pack some additional items.
"Babe it's three months. You are going to need more clothes." Said Piper.
"Well I can always wash them or fuck it... I'll just buy new stuff." Alex replied with a smirk.
Piper started folding some of Alex's muscle shirts. She held one up, "these. Definitely wear this. Your arms would look so hot in this while playing." Piper said with a sweet smile on her face. When she saw Alex looking at her with her one eyebrow raised, Piper felt a blush start to form on her cheeks. "Maybe I don't want other people staring at my girlfriend." Thought Piper.
Alex walked over to her night stand and turned on her Bluetooth speaker and music started to fill the room. She walked back over and sat on the edge of the bed and took a few moments to enjoy the sight of watching her girlfriend look through her clothes. Piper started to sway her hips in time with the music getting more into it when she looked over her shoulder and saw that Alex was staring at her with a sultry look on her face.
"Are you going to miss me?" Asked Piper innocently while rolling her hips in time with the music.
"Too much" Alex admitted with staring into Piper's eyes. Alex got off the bed and went to stand directly in front of her girlfriend. "Come with me." Alex blurted out softly.
"What?" Piper said out loud.
"Come with me. I want you to come on tour with me." Alex stated again with more resolve in her voice.
"I can't just go. I have a job." Piper said as if trying to talk herself out of saying yes right away.
"Fuck that job Piper." Alex replied with a smile. She moved her hands to rest around Piper's waist.
"I need the money Alex."
"I know you do. And I'll figure something out. I just can't stand the thought of being away from you for three months. Come on baby," Alex said as she leaned in to kiss Piper's neck as if trying to convince her. "I want you to come." She said as she sucked on Piper neck.
Piper let out a small moan and moved her hands up to Alex's neck. She pulled her girlfriend face up and kissed her squarely on the mouth. Hard enough to surprise them both. Alex felt Piper's resolve fading.
"Okay" said Piper when she breathlessly pulled away from the kiss. Alex smiled and went back in for more. She slid her tongue into her girlfriend's mouth battling her dominance. At the same time she slid her hand into Piper's loose short and panties. She couldn't believe how soaked Piper already was. She slid her fingers through her wet fold and plunged two finger deep into Piper's awaiting center. "And ... I want you to cum." Piper's moans could be heard throughout the apartment as she got lost in her girlfriend for the rest of the evening.
Two days later, Alex and Piper had just walked through security with their suitcases and Alex's amp and bass checked at baggage. Alex took Piper's hand in hers as they casually walked through the airport. Piper being a little more than excited, convinced Alex that they needed to show up no less than three hours before the flight.
"Polly was pissed." Piper stated in reference to when she quit her job. "She thinks I'm going to be broke, get my heart broken and end up living with Cal in my parents' basement."
"Well I can assure you of two things. I can support you and I would never break your heart." Alex replied.
Piper smiled. She wondered where Alex was getting all of this money but never questioned her. She trusted her girlfriend.
"Plus remember when I said I'd think of a plan for you to work while we are away?" Alex said with a mischievous grin.
"Yes..." Piper replied hesitantly when noticing the look on Alex's face.
"Well you want to be an artist right?" She continued.
"Yes..." One again Piper hesitated.
"So I went ahead and got art supplies sent to our hotel. There's a lot of downtime during the tour. In between seeing the sights and fucking, I thought you could work on some pieces and sell them at our merchandise table. Plus I know Lorna would love your company manning the table at the concerts." Alex said losing a little of her confidence half way thru when looking at Piper.
"I can feel you thinking." Alex said when she noticed the intense concentration on Piper's face. Piper finally looked at Alex and a small smile started forming on her lips.
"Al, that sounds amazing. Hell maybe my painting will be so good, I'll become more famous than the Gay Agenda." Piper said while jabbing Alex playfully in the ribs.
"We will just have to wait and see about that one babe." Alex winked and placed a slow, long kiss on her girlfriend's lips.
"Jesus lesbos, get a room." Came the sounds of an all too familiar voice.
Alex reluctantly broke the kiss to see Nicky and Lorna standing in front of the couple. Alex took the moment to flick off Nicky then give her a hug while Lorna quickly embraced Piper as if they had been friends for years.
"I can't tell you how excited I am to have another non musical person coming on this tour with me." Lorna confessed to Piper. "It's going to be so much fun," she added with so much excitement in her voice.
"I am really looking forward to getting to know everyone better," said Piper. "Piper, come with me to the newsstand? I need to get a few things for the plane ride," asked Lorna.
"Hey Al, I'm going to head over with Lorna to get a drink. Would you like anything?" Piper asked her girlfriend.
Alex told her she wanted a Diet Coke and some gummy bears and handed Piper some cash to pay for it as well as whatever Piper, Nicky, and Lorna wanted. Piper took the cash, gave her girlfriend a quick peck and started to leave with Lorna.
"Don't worry babes, we will hold the fort down over here while you chicks bring us back some grub." Nicky shouted out after the women. "So playing sugar mama already, vause?" Nicky turned to tease her friend.
"It's not a big deal and keep your voice down asshole people are staring." Alex replied in a hushed tone.
"Well just where does blondie think all this money is coming from?" Asked Nicky.
"I don't know. It's just never came up so I didn't want to mention it." Replied Alex.
"You do know they repealed that whole 'Don't ask; Don't Tell' thing." Nicky replied with a wagging of her eyebrows.
"Yeah smart ass I know. It's a hard thing to bring up. So far this is what I'm going with: 'hey pipes. So you know how I said you don't have to work. Well that because I used to push large amounts of drugs around to several countries for about eight years, almost died, saved a fucked ton of my money and now have enough for us to live off of until we die.'" Alex responded while looking at Nicky for some help.
"Yeah... I um see what you mean there. That sure is a shitty position to be in. I'm just glad I don't have to give that news to blondie. But seriously tho man, the way she looks at you... You could tell her you fucked a gorilla and she would still be to the moon about you." Nicky replied in a hopeful nature.
"We shall see, Nick, we shall see." Alex said as she looked up and saw Piper and Lorna making their way back to the chairs. Piper sat next to Alex, and handed her the goodies and her change.
"God Al, I'm so excited to start this adventure with you." Piper looked so happy. Alex just wondered how happy Piper would be when she found out the truth about Alex's past.
