Hey, guys. Sorry for the absence. I was working literally 16 hours every day for the last like 2.5 months & life is just dumb and family stuff happened, and as much as I'm dedicated to this story...my life comes first. The only good thing that's come out of the wait is I've decided to take a completely different route with this story than I was originally, and I think you all will like this a lot better. Also, I typed this and am uploading it from my phone so apologies for any typos or grammatical errors.

I watched the 3rd season this week & can I just say how much I despise Piper. What did all of you think of it?

Anyway, sorry again for the long delay in updates. Work has slowed down for now so hopefully I can update once a week again for a while. Hope you enjoy the chapter! Don't forget to review!

Piper giggled as she led Alex down the stairs, feeling an overwhelming sense of urgency to get the brunette woman in her bed. Reaching the bottom of the stairs, Alex reached out and pulled Piper against her. Piper moaned quietly as she felt Alex begin to kiss the side of her neck.

"Alex," she breathed. Alex murmured and continued kissing the blonde's neck while running her hands up and down her sides.

"Alex," Piper said again, grasping her hands and taking a step away. "Not here..."

Alex smirked and nodded her head, taking a hold of Piper's hand before making her way out the door. Outside, a cab was already waiting for them, which Alex was extremely grateful for. She didn't want to waste a half hour walking back to her apartment when she could have Piper in less than ten minutes.

Sliding into the backseat, Piper muttered an address to the driver and proceeded to pull Alex in next to her. The two women sat in silence, keeping their hands locked together. After a few moments, Alex realized they weren't headed back to her apartment.

"Piper, where are we going?" She whispered, glancing over at the blonde.

"My place," Piper replied, grinning, and squeezing Alex's hand. Alex mouthed an "oh" and turned back to watch out the window.

About ten minutes later, they arrived at Piper's apartment. Throwing a bunch of bills at the driver, Piper pulled Alex out of the cab, the urgency from earlier returning with full force. Alex chuckled as she felt Piper tugging on her arm to get her to move faster.

"Relax, kid. We have all night," Alex chuckled, moving towards the door along with the blonde. Piper pushed open the door to the lobby, and all but dragged Alex over to the elevator. She hurriedly pushed the button and grinned when she heard Alex chuckle. When the doors opened, Piper gently pushed Alex in ahead of her and pressed the 7th floor button before turning around to face the brunette.

Alex was feeling very excited...and nervous as she stepped onto the elevator. She felt good about the blonde's enthusiasm to get home, but she knew Piper had never been with another woman before; and she didn't want her first time to be a rash decision that was made under the influence of alcohol. She sighed when she saw Piper turn to look at her, but her thoughts quickly dimmed when she saw the look on the Piper's face.

"Piper-" the blonde cut off whatever Alex was about to say with a sloppy kiss. She chuckled and grabbed the sides of Alex'a face to steady herself before slowly moving forward to back the brunette against the wall. Alex momentarily gave into what was happening and wrapped her arms around Piper's waist as she slowly opened her mouth to deepen their kiss.

Piper moaned quietly and pulled away to bring her mouth the Alex's neck. She smirked when she felt Alex's hands move up to her hair to hold her head. She thought back to her dream and wondered...she quickly started sucking on Alex's pulse point and grinned when she heard her take a quick intake of air.

"Piper-" Alex said again, knowing this had to slow down before the situation got too out of control. Piper mumbled, bringing her mouth back up to Alex's and moving her hands to cover the brunette's breasts. She squeezed lightly, groaning at how well they fit in her hands. Alex rolled her head back against the wall...starting to doubt that this was going to end how it should. But if she couldn't put a stop to it, she could at least be in control of what was happening.

Alex quickly gripped Piper's hips and gave a firm squeeze before moving her mouth down to her neck. Hearing the blonde moan, she smirked and moved her hands even lower, giving her ass a light squeeze. Shaking her head, Piper grabbed Alex's wrists and pinned them to the wall on either side of her head.

"What?" Alex chuckled, raising an eyebrow.

"My house, my rules," Piper stated, not sure whether she was actually this confident all the time and didn't know it, or whether she should be thanking the 2 shots she took before the date along with the bottle of wine she drank. Alex looked stunned for a second, but Piper didn't give it a second thought...the urge to kiss her overtook everything else in her mind.

Moving her thigh in-between the brunette's, Piper smirked when she finally heard the beautiful sound that was Alex moaning. She moved her lips down to her neck again, desperate to hear it again. She pushed tighter against her and palmed her breasts again, smiling when Alex's breathing started to get heavy. She grunted when she heard the dingos the elevator, signaling they were now at her floor.

She hadn't even had time to pull herself away from Alex when she heard, "Piper? What the fuck?!" come from behind her. She whipped her head around and came face to face with Larry. She closed her eyes and tried to grasp what was happening.

"Larry, what the hell are you doing here?" Piper asked, trying hard to keep her patience in check. She took two steps back cornering Alex behind her, trying to get away from him as he stepped onto the elevator.

"It's our anniversary? I haven't talked to you in days..." He said, glancing back at Alex and making a face. "What the fuck were you just doing?"

Alex felt mortified, of course Piper hadn't broken up with him. She was just a curious little girl that wanted to scratch an itch...how could she have been so stupid? This is exactly why she never let herself get in these situations.

"Larry, you haven't spoken to me because the last time we talked, I broke up with you. I don't care about our anniversary because we're no longer a couple," Piper said through gritted teeth, completely pissed that he ruined this night and potentially any type of relationship with Alex for her.

"No, you said you just needed some space and I've given it to you. You never said anything about...hooking up with a woman...what, are you gay now?" He sneered, looking directly at Alex...who kept her eyes focused on the floor sign...hoping to God the doors would open fast so she could leave.

"Larry I'm not-" Piper got cut off as Alex pushed past her as soon as the elevator doors opened. "Alex!" She threw Larry a glare before taking off after Alex.

Alex walked as fast as she could out of the lobby, desperate for fresh air. She stepped outside and stopped, taking a deep breath. She heard Piper calling her name and quickly took off down the street, wanting to get as far away from her as possible.

"Hey!" Piper yelled, sprinting down the sidewalk after the brunette. She caught up to her rather quickly and grabbed a hold of her arm.

"What?!" Alex snapped, yanking her arm away from Piper's grip and taking a step back.

"He's delusional, Alex," Piper said, bending down to catch her breath.

"He is or you are?" Alex replied, crossing her arms.

"Are you serious?" Piper asked, chuckling in disbelief.

"Needing space and ending a relationship are two different things, Piper. What exactly did you say to him? Because clearly, you two weren't on the same page. And you asked me out on your fucking anniversary? Are YOU serious?" Alex scoffed, turning around to start walking again.

"Hey! We're not done! This is so stupid, Alex. I told him we were done, I got all my shit out of his apartment and gave his back to him. I told him I didn't love him anymore and that I was done. Don't punish me because he's sad it's over. And it's the anniversary of the first time we met...it's stupid and I didn't even remember...that's how unimportant that was to me." Piper said, walking behind Alex. The brunette stopped and turned around. She opened her mouth to apologize-

"Piper! You said you'd be right back! What are you doing?" Larry shouted, jogging down the street.

"You're such a fucking liar," Alex laughed, shaking her head. "Don't follow me. And you better have your shit together...you're teaching every day next week."

Piper watched as Alex quickly took off down the street, knowing it was best to give her space. She turned around and saw Larry standing there smiling and she felt her blood start to boil.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?! We are over!" Piper yelled, then lowered her voice, "I swear to god if I ever see your face in my apartment complex again I'll hit you so hard you'll be in a hospital bed when you wake up. Now get the fuck away from me before I call the cops." She brushed past him and stormed back into the building.

Alex heard Piper yell at Larry "we are over", but couldn't find herself to believe the blondes words. She felt tears stinging her eyes and moved her glasses off her face to brush them away. She pulled out her phone and called the one person she knew she could always count on.

"Hello?" Alex couldn't stop the tears then, and cursed herself for feeling so emotional over a girl she hardly knows. "Alex?"

"Hey, mom."
