Piper turned around and faced Alex. She couldn't believe what Alex had just asked. She didn't know what to say. She was surprised.
''Your girlfriend?'' Piper asked.
''Yeah my girlfriend..look I get it if you don't want to.'' Alex said.
''Oh, Idiot! Of course I want to be your girlfriend. Come here'' Piper grabbed Alex and leaned in for a passionate kiss.
''Is that a yes'' Alex said with a smile.
''Yes..'' Piper said while leaning in for another kiss.
''Gosh, Pipes, I love you so much'' Alex said teasingly.
''Same, Babe, you're my forever'' Piper said.
Their kiss got interrupted by guard Bell. She looked angry. ''No TOUCHING! CHAPMAN, VAUSE come with me!'' She yelled.
Piper and Alex got up and followed guard Bell towards the hallway. They walked towards the office of Mr. Healy. ''Get your asses in there!'' She yelled in their ears.
Piper opened the door and walked in the office of mr. Healy, Alex followed her.
They saw Healy with a furious face staring at the wall. He looked distracted by something. They couldn't exactly place it, but they knew something was wrong otherwise he wasn't this angry.
''Good morning, Sir'' Piper said with a serious voice.
''Wish I could say the same thing, Chapman, Vause''. Healy said.
''What's wrong, sir'' Alex asked.
''I found this in the camp. I am not to happy with it . Look'' Healy said.
He showed them a bag of cocaïne, that a guard found in the kitchen.
''I want to know how this got in here. And I need your help. Both of you. I'll give you something in exchange for your help. Just say what you want'' Healy said.
''Well.. there's something you can give us sir'' Alex said.
''Sure what do you want, Vause''?
''I want you to move me and Piper in the same bunk. She's my girlfriend. In exchange for that we will help you with the drug problem'' Alex said.
''Okay, deal'' Healy said with a smile.
''Bell, come in!'' Healy yelled.
''Yeah, Sir, what can I do for you''? Bell asked.
''Move Vause to E-Block and give her a bunk together with Chapman, Now!'' He said annoyed.
''I will'' Bell said.
Guard Bell took Piper and Alex towards the E-Block, she guided the to an empty bunk. ''Home, sweet home'' Bell said.
''Thank you'' Piper said.
Piper walked into the bunk, sat down on the right bed and leaned against the wall. Alex also walked into the bunk and sat down next to Piper.
''Pipes, I'm really glad that you want to be my girlfriend''.
''Always. I'm really tired. I want to sleep for a while. You want to stay with me. When I'm alone..I still have nightmares'' Piper said.
'' Of course I will stay with you.'' Alex lay down on the bed and pointed to the matress:''Come be my little spoon'' she said with a smile on her face.
Piper lay down next to her. Alex put her arms around her. They both fell into a deep sleep. For the first time in months Piper felt safe.
