Luckily, I can't go more than like a few days without updating. So Anyways, here's this, please review and enjoy :) - Courtney
"Hey Nichols, can you do me a huge favor?" Alex spoke quietly into her phone. Piper had gone to the bathroom and Alex took the opportunity to call her best friend.
"Well, I was on a nice date, but what do you need pal?" Nicky replied sarcastically. Nicky would gladly do anything for Alex, they had a mutual understanding of each other and did their best to keep each other going on the right track.
"I am breaking out of here for a few hours. Piper just ended it with that pussy of a boyfriend and she needs to go get his things out of her apartment. I don't want him there with Piper alone, so I am going to help her pack his things or maybe just light it all on fire, but anyways… I need you to come get me and drive me to Piper's apartment. She will leave when you get here, but she won't allow me to leave the hospital, especially because I have surgery on Wednesday. So what do you say?"
"I'll be there in ten, is it cool if Lorna comes?"
"Sure, I don't care, just don't tell Piper. She won't have a choice if I just show up but if she knows I am planning it, she won't leave."
"Okay, my mouth is shut… for once" Nicky snorted loudly. "So what happened, did it end badly?"
Alex listened for Piper's footsteps. "Ill tell you the full version on the way, but pretty much, he figured out Piper was cheating and then had a huge fuckin' epiphany and realized I was the one and only Alex Vause, extra ordinary Lesbian lover of Piper's past. He freaked out and then tried to tell me I couldn't walk into Piper's life and re-claim her, like he has a fuckin' choice!" Alex scoffed and continued quickly." I pretty much told him that he was a pussy and he couldn't make her cum like I could. So he tried to come at me and I knocked him on his ass. Then he fell down a small flight of cement steps and got taken away by security." Alex rushed the story, making sure she could finish before Piper returned. Piper had spent the past 20 minutes crying and feeling guilty, Alex didn't want to set off the well of tears again. She did her best to comfort the blonde, and Piper apologized, saying she didn't regret the choice, just how it happened.
"Holy shit Vause, bad ass!" Nicky commented on the physical part of the altercation.
"Okay, Piper's on her way back, see you soon alright?"
"You got it!" Nicky replied before ending the call.
Piper returned a few moments later and kissed Alex quickly. She sat on the edge of the bed.
"Alright, I am feeling better now, thanks for sticking by me through all the blubbering." She smiled lightly, feeling slightly embarrassed.
Alex pulled her into an embrace and kissed her forehead. "I love you at your best and at your worst Pipes, I will always stick by you, now that you are free from that, I am never letting you go." Alex spoke softly as hugged the blonde tighter.
The nurse came in a few moments later and unhooked Alex's IV tube, allowing her to roam freely without the metal pole.
"'I'll return in a few hours for your next dosage, okay?" The nurse smiled at Alex and Piper before retreating. Alex nodded politely and returned her gaze to the emotional blonde.
"What will you do with all this freedom Miss Vause?" Piper asked seductively before letting out a giggle.
"Mm, perhaps visit the fourth floor?" She wagged her eyebrows. Her lips twitched into her signature smirk as Piper bit her lip lightly.
"As wonderful as that sounds, I need to go soon. I have to pack up Larry's shit and then hopefully get an hour or two of sleep before coming back." She frowned at the thought of being tired tomorrow. She hated not getting sleep before work but she knew there was a long night of arguing, crying and awkwardness waiting for her at her apartment. She wished Alex could come be with her, but she knew it was impossible. Piper sighed at the thought and leaned into Alex's chest. She enjoyed the warmth for a moment.
"Piper, I swear if he touches one hair on your perfect fucking body, I will literally murder him." She spoke in a cold tone that made Piper shiver. Alex was very intimidating; she knew her threats were very real from the time they spent together while Alex was a drug importer. She didn't like to use violence or threats but there was always someone, trying to challenge her authority and ability. Alex quickly put them in place, sometimes civilized, sometimes not.
"I will be okay Al, I'll make sure nothing happens, I am just going to ignore him the entire time and get it over with" She lied slightly. She wasn't going to try and engage with Larry, but she knew there would be some conversation and she hoped he wouldn't lose his temper again.
Alex eyed her suspiciously and frowned. She hugged the blonde closer. "You mean everything to me Piper." She stated simply.
Piper felt her heart fill. She smiled against Alex's chest and nodded in agreement. Alex was much more expressive since she returned into Piper's life. The old Alex would show her love through rough sex and multiple orgasms. Piper loved that about Alex but she absolutely hated when she would tell Alex that she loved her and Alex would just nod or say 'me too'. Piper felt a spark of excitement when Alex did say those three words. Alex knew she had to try harder this time around to show Piper how much she loved her. She took every opportunity to express her love; sometimes in soft kisses, other times in sweet nothings. She vowed to never take advantage of the blonde's love again.
They sat silently for a few moments before they heard footsteps approach the room.
"Coming in hot, everyone decent?" Nicky called out as she pulled open the curtain. Piper pulled back from the brunette's embrace slowly, not caring who saw them anymore. Piper decided she would start over with Alex and vowed to stop trying to hide the truth and her feelings, she would be straight with Alex about what she wanted or what was lacking.
"Hi Nicky." Piper smiled at the wild haired woman. Lorna Morello was in tow, she smiled sheepishly at Piper. "And hi Lorna!" Piper added enthusiastically. She was happy for the nurse. Piper hadn't been fond of Nicky at first, but after realizing she was Alex's girlfriend, she quickly realized that Nicky was good for Alex to have.
"Hi there, hope we aren't interrupting." She smiled and eyed Nicky and Alex. Piper shook her head politely.
"No, no, please sit down, I was actually just leaving. I have to be back early tomorrow, but it looks like neither of us can stay away from this place!" She smiled at the petite woman sheepishly.
Lorna laughed lightly, her voice sounding like a child, which made Piper's grin widen.
Piper leaned down and kissed Alex softly. She usually wasn't one for PDA but Piper felt a new sense of freedom within her. She wanted to show Alex how much she missed her over the last 8 years and every chance she could, she touched or kissed Alex. Alex leaned in, letting the kiss linger. She smiled against Piper's lips as Nicky cleared her throat.
"I'd say get a room, but we are in your room!" She let out a loud laugh and squeezed Morello's hand tightly.
Piper felt color rush to her cheeks as she leaned away from Alex.
"See you tomorrow Al, love you"
"I love you too Piper, be safe" she added genuinely. Piper nodded and said her goodbyes to Alex's visitors.
She made her way to the apartment to find Larry's car out front. The front door was propped open with a brown cardboard box.
She entered the apartment slowly and looked around the empty space. She didn't see Larry but found many more boxes and suitcases. She peered in one of the open brown boxes and found his items inside. The suitcases were full of his clothes and the boxes had pictures frames of his family, his writing supplies and video games.
She set her keys down and made her way to the bookshelf to gather some of his books and art work he had bought for the house while they were together.
"You can keep the art work, I don't have anywhere to put it" Larry called out in a quiet reserved tone. Piper jumped at the sound of his voice, not hearing him come in the living room.
She was going to tell him she didn't want it, but didn't want to push him. She would just get rid of it after he left. She picked up a few books and set them down in an empty box near the leather couch.
"Why are you even helping? He asked coldly. He shoved a few of his favorite Xbox games into an already full box and stared at Piper angrily.
"Larry, I am just trying to get this over with, it's not like I am going to go sleep in the next room while you pack up and leave." She shot him an annoyed look.
"Whatever Piper, don't bother, I'll do it myself, why don't you just go fuck Alex at the hospital?"
"Can you not be a douche-bag for five fucking minutes? I said I was sorry! Have you forgotten you fucking did the same thing to me? With Polly! You are in no position to be acting like this! I know you are hurt, but don't fucking talk about Alex like that."
"FUCK ALEX!" He yelled. He threw his hands up, accidentally bumping into a vase that was on the counter. It fell to the ground and shattered. They both jumped at the sudden sound. Piper frowned and shook her head. Before the blonde could even move to help clean up the glass, the front door shot open and Alex came flying through it.
Her eyes scanned the room quickly before she darted to Larry and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and yanked him up, slamming him against the wall.
"What the fuck!" He yelled out, squirming in her grasp.
"Are you okay Piper?" Alex breathed out quickly, glancing at her body for any visible wounds.
"Alex, put him down! He didn't do anything, he bumped into a vase. I'm okay! What are you doing out of the hospital?" She ran over to the two and pulled Alex away from Larry.
Alex let go immediately and stepped back. Nicky stood in the door way, watching the situation unfold.
"I wanted to make sure you were okay" Alex replied to Piper's question.
"Al… you can't leave the hospital!" Piper whined back.
Larry stood still, fuming, if looks could kill, Alex and Piper would be 6 feet under.
"So as if cheating on me wasn't enough, you decide to bring the bitch here to watch me leave?" Larry shouted at Piper.
"Stop talking to her like that, or the next time I put my hands on you, you won't get back up or perhaps maybe not even wake up." Alex grew more annoyed at Larry with each word he spoke. He didn't respond, he picked up a box and stomped outside to load it into his car. Alex turned to Piper and stared into her eyes.
"I'm sorry Pipes, I heard the glass break and he was yelling and I thought he might have hurt you." Her voice was full of apology and sincerity. She raised one hand slowly and brushed it against the blonde's cheek. Piper couldn't even be angry, she was glad Alex was there to comfort her. She pulled the tall woman into her arms and kissed her lightly.
"It was really stupid of you to come, but I'm glad you're here." She released Alex as Nicky yelled into the apartment.
"Incoming!" She shot quickly.
Larry stormed up the steps like an angry child, glaring at the two women while he packed another box to remove. Alex wrapped an arm around Piper and stared back at him, unfazed.
"Who the fuck are you?" Larry asked Nicky, who made her way to the kitchen bar stool. She smirked at him for a moment before responding.
"I am a bean flicking Mother Teresa." She tossed her head back at his confused expression.
"No, actually, I'm Nicky, AKA the tall lesbian's best friend." She jabbed a finger in Alex's direction as Larry rolled his eyes and proceeding to pack slowly.
Piper sighed and sat down on the couch, pulling Alex next to her. Piper knew it would be better for everyone if they just stayed out of the way.
Alex held her hand and rubbed circles with the pad of her thumb.
"So, I like your apartment." Alex spoke softly.
"Thanks… I like it too, well I will soon enough…" She sighed again and glanced at the clock, hoping it wouldn't take Larry too much longer to get out.
"Piper, if you are done fucking around with your girlfriend, here's the spare key and I'm taking this crock pot, my mom gave it to us for Christmas and I want it." He slammed the key on the kitchen counter.
Alex took a deep breath; she was getting increasingly pissed off with the way he was talking to Piper. She squeezed the brunette's hand, trying to calm her.
"I don't give a shit Larry, take whatever you want, I'll just replace what I need." She scoffed back.
"Oh, I apologize, I didn't realize I was talking to Mrs. Monopoly." He shot back, rifling through the cabinets, searching for anything else he owned.
"That's not what I meant Larry." She retreated, feeling bad.
"Oh no, It is. You are the bread winner here, you make all the money, I got it loud and clear. You are clearly too good for me, so is your lesbian cunt of a girlfriend." He muttered the last part, loud enough for Alex to hear.
"Okay, I've had enough of this." She stood up quickly.
"Alex, don't" Piper cried out, not wanting her to hurt Larry. She was much taller and more intimidating. Larry may have had more muscle, but when the two stood side by side, Larry looked like a small school girl.
Larry turned around to face her quickly, his face twisted into a scared expression. Alex rolled her eyes and muttered "Pussy" as she walked to the pile of boxes by the door. She picked one up gingerly and tossed it out side of the door with a flick of her wrist, not bothering to see if there was anything breakable inside. She made it look like it was a piece of paper she was tossing away. The box fell with a loud thud.
"HEY!" Larry shouted, moving closer to the tall woman. Alex stood up straight and glared at him.
"You aren't leaving quickly enough and you are pissing me off. You do not get to speak to her that way, I warned you and now I am giving you ten, actually no, five minutes to get all of this shit out of here or I will smash everything in these boxes and kick your ass out myself." She leaned against the door frame smirking. Piper didn't move from her position by the couch.
"Fine." He muttered and picked the boxes up quickly. She smiled in a 'royal-bitch' manor as she watched him load the last of his things.
He grabbed the last box. Piper could see tears forming in his mudded brown eyes. He glanced at Piper, giving her a sad look, silently begging her to choose him instead. She sighed and looked away from his gaze.
Alex cleared her throat and held the door open. Larry's nostrils flared as he stomped toward her.
"Now, do not ever come back here again. And if you'll excuse me, I am going to go have hot, wild sex with my girlfriend, so if you have forgotten anything, I will be sure to mail it to mommy and daddy's house. So, I am going to need you to, politely, get the fuck out." She smirked at him. His eye's widened and he ran out the door. She slammed it behind him and locked it. Nicky was sitting at the kitchen counter silently. She let out a huge laugh.
"You are fuckin' scary Vause. No wonder Kubra liked you so much! Such a bitch!" She couldn't contain her smile.
Alex sat on the sofa and pulled Piper into her lap, she wrapped her long arms around the blonde and held her tightly.
"I'm going to go get Lorna real quick, she's been waiting in the café down the street." Nicky stood up to leave the apartment.
Neither of the two woman replied. Piper held Alex close to her, feeling relieved and safe.
Nicky shut the door quietly and Piper kissed Alex's lips softly, feeling thankful for her help.
"I'm sorry about all of this Pipes, I just couldn't take him talking to you like that." Alex admitted quietly.
"I am glad you stood up for me, he doesn't deserve to talk to me like that, he cheated on me first with my best friend, so …." She defended her unethically decisions. She shrugged indifferently at the situation.
Alex let her hands brush against Piper's back, soothing her.
Piper kissed Alex again slowly, building up passion.
"Alex, I am ready to make up for lost time. You've been far away for far too long." Piper breathed onto the brunette's neck. She laid gentle kisses along her jaw, trailing down to her collar bone.
"Baby, I'm not leaving you, I love you, I've loved you all along." Alex replied, slowly lifting the hem of Piper's shirt. She brought it over her head slowly before tossing it on the ground beside them.
Piper knew Alex was supposed to be back at the hospital. She had been gone for about an hour and would need to return before her next antibiotic dose. Piper lifted her thick black glasses and set them on the coffee table behind her. Alex lifted Piper enough to change her position. She laid the blonde down on the couch and planted soft kissed on her abdomen. She softly tugged at the blonde's shorts, pulling them down her thighs. Piper's breath picked up and she felt Alex's hands linger on her thighs.
Alex wasted no time pulling off the black panties that were building with moisture.
Piper let out a small whine, wanting Alex to hurry.
Alex pushed Piper's legs apart and kissed her left inner thigh until she reached Piper's hot center.
She kissed her aching sex quickly before sliding her tongue along Piper's slick folds. Piper let out a small moan at the contact and lifted her hips involuntarily. Alex used one hand to hold Piper down and the other to make small circles in the woman's warm clit.
Piper put her free hand on top of Alex's, guiding her to the right spots. Alex removed Piper's hand and reached up to place it on her own breast. Piper massaged herself gently as Alex moved closer to slide her tongue back into place.
"I know how to get you off baby, all in good time, be patient." She cooed.
Alex's tongue darted in and out of the woman quickly causing Piper to squirm. She moved her two long fingers to enter the blonde slowly, causing Piper to moan loudly.
"Ughhh, finally" She let out a relieved sigh at the pleasure. Piper needed to feel Alex inside her, giving her release.
Alex smirked and pushed farther inside. Alex worked quickly, picking up pace and pressure with every thrust. She brought the blonde to near climax before she pulled out her fingers.
Piper let out a frustrated moan before she felt the brunette's tongue reclaim the space. Alex sucked and lapped at Piper's wetness quickly. She let her tongue slide in between the blonde's folds and deep as she good before bringing her tongue up to her hardened nub. Piper clutched the couch with one hand and brought her free hand to grab a handful of Alex's hair, pushing Alex farther into the blonde's thighs.
Alex laughed slightly, causing vibrations on the blonde. Piper was reaching her climax again as Alex's tongue worked furiously.
"Fuck, I'm coming, I'm coming!" Piper cried out, biting her lip.
"Show, don't tell" Alex mumbled before returning to finishing Piper's orgasm.
Piper cried out again, almost finishing her orgasm before the front door flew open. Nicky had one foot in the door before she stepped back, knocking into Morello. She tried to close the door, but Morello stood in the way. Nicky was try to push the brunette out of the way to close the door.
Alex shot up from between Piper's legs, grabbing a blanket that was on the edge of the couch to cover the blonde's naked body.
Piper's cheeks turned a dark red as she sank into the couch, trying to hide herself.
"Uh" Nicky glanced behind her at the fumbling women on the couch. "We'll be back!" She called out before slamming the door unintentionally.
Alex laughed loudly and grabbed their clothes, handing a shirt to Piper.
"Oh fuck. Morello just got a whole scene of her boss having sex with a patient. Awesome" she felt the color linger on her cheeks.
Alex pulled a shirt over her head and kissed the blonde quickly. "I'm sure she won't mention it" Alex smiled, clearly amused.
They both got dressed quickly, Piper ran into the bathroom to fix her hair before her guests returned. Alex went to get Nicky who was sitting on the cement steps with Morello, laughing.
"You can come in now, next time maybe knock?"
"I was gone for like 10 minutes! You guys couldn't keep it in your pants that long?" Nicky let out a loud laugh, pulling Lorna off the step gently.
Morello smiled but stayed silent. Alex returned the laugh and led them inside.
Piper walked out from the bathroom and blushed at the site of her guests.
"Well, I was going to ask if you guys were hungry, but I think Vause had an early dinner." Nicky set down two brown paper bags and wagged her eyebrows. Piper bit her lip as Alex shrugged with a smirk on her face. Alex wrapped an arm around Piper and kissed her head.
"Sorry about that" Piper directed the apology to her co-worker. Lorna smiled and dismissed it with a wave of her hand.
"We should have knocked." Lorna said quietly, unloading the contents from the paper bag. "We have to bring Alex back in a few minutes so I figured we could eat something quick." She suggested.
Piper nodded, waiting for a dirty pun from Nicky.
Nicky bit her tongue as Alex shot her a warning glance.
They both let out a loud laugh and started eating the sandwiches Lorna bought. Nicky was speaking to Lorna quietly, as Alex stared at her blonde haired lover.
Piper leaned into Alex and whispered into her ear. "It was supposed to be your turn, do you know how long it's been since I've tasted you Miss Vause?" Piper smirked and leaned away. Alex's left eyebrow cocked and her lips twitched, fighting a smile.
Nicky glanced away from Lorna and raised her eyebrows. She hadn't heard what Piper said but by the expressions on both of the woman's faces, she knew it was something inappropriate.
"Secrets don't make friends" She shot childishly and smiled.
"Piper was just mentioning that she hadn't eaten in a while." Alex mused softly as color filled the blonde's cheeks. Nicky let out a hearty laugh, almost choking on her food. Alex smiled brightly and continued her lunch.
They chatted quietly and when they finished Nicky stood to go start the car. "Well we waiting in the car, try to keep it in your pants this time!" Nicky called out before leaving the apartment with Lorna.
"Be there in a second." Alex shouted back, ignoring her later comment.
She turned to Piper and hugged her tightly.
"I know it's only a few hours, but I am going to miss you" Piper admitted shyly as she wrapped her arms around the tall brunette's waist.
"Me too kid, I wish I could spend the night here with you, but I'm sure the nurses wouldn't appreciate me leaving for the night." She pulled back, taking Piper's face in her hands gently. "I'll see you tomorrow alright?"
Piper nodded and leaned in to kiss the tall woman softly. Their lips brushed gently, building up the moment slowly. Piper opened her mouth slightly, letting out warm air against Alex's mouth. Alex moaned in response and pulled back before it could heat up again.
She chuckled and pulled away from Piper.
"Dream about me" She winked and started towards the door.
"Always do" Piper replied simply with a light smile.
"Call me if you need me alright?" Alex thought about Larry returning later in the night. "And lock your doors okay?"
Piper nodded, moving towards Alex to let her out.
Alex kissed her cheek quickly and headed out the door.
"Bye Al." Piper called out into the street.
"Bye Pipes, see you soon" Alex closed the door and Nicky waved.
Piper sighed before closing and locking it, as she had requested.
She went straight to her room and fell asleep quickly. Her day was long and emotional. Piper did dream about Alex that night, it made her sleep soundly and for the first time in months, she felt happy.
The next day flew by without any incidents and Piper once again retreated back to her apartment, feeling utterly alone. She didn't mind the silence but wished Alex was there to hold her at night. She hadn't heard from Larry all day and enjoyed the peace.
Polly came over and they caught up about recent events over a bottle of wine. After Polly left for the evening, Piper prepared herself for Alex's surgery the next morning. She wasn't nervous about preforming the surgery. She was confident in herself, she just worried because it was Alex. There was always room for complications or risks, and with Alex's infection it made her worry slightly more. She felt like she would open her lover up and find something wrong that would lead to Alex's death. The more she thought about it, the more she worried. That night she woke up several times from a nightmare. She forced herself to fall back asleep, wanting to have as much energy for the next day as possible.
