Hey guys, I hope you are all keeping well :) Thank you for all the lovely comments, I'm glad you're enjoying the story. As far as Alex going to prison, honestly, I haven't worked that out yet lol. But the story is going to focus more on their reunion and rekindling. As much as we all hate Larry, he's vital to the story, but only for a little while longer ;) Then you can completely forget about him lol. Don't worry, there will be a happy ending between Alex and Piper… Eventually! Enjoy!
Chapter 7:
Now, they were laying under the blankets of the bed, wrapped up in each other. Alex and Piper were talking and stealing kisses from the other in their own private little bubble of bliss.
Eventually, every bubble has to burst.
Suddenly, the blonde's phone started to ring from the other room, startling the pair. Piper jumped out of bed, grabbing the brunette's robe on the way out to answer her phone.
The blonde grabbed the phone, forgetting to check the caller ID and answered it just in time before it went to voicemail.
''Hello?'' Piper answered as she put the phone to her ear.
''Hey babe, I just got home… Where are you?'' Larry asked happily.
''Hey, Larry! I- I um… I bumped into an old friend earlier and we went for coffee to catch up.'' Piper nervously stuttered as she tried to tell at least half the truth.
''Cool. It's late… When are you coming home? I'm a- (hiccup) I'm a little drunk!'' Larry slurred down the phone.
Piper pulled the phone away from her ear to check the time.
Friday 3rd April – 9:45pm
'Fuck… Have I spent all day in bed with Alex? I didn't even notice it getting dark!' Piper thought to herself, almost forgetting her boyfriend was on the phone waiting for an answer.
''It's not that late, Larry. It's not even 10pm on a Friday night! I'll be home in a few hours.'' Piper replied, annoyed at her boyfriend interrupting her time with Alex.
''Noooo, baby! I can't wait that long… You know how beer makes me horny! Come home now, so I can rub my hard cock against your a-'' Larry whined as he was abruptly cut off.
''Jesus, Larry! What the fuck! I told you that I'm busy!'' Piper responded angrily, feeling a little repulsed at the thought of sex with Larry after being with Alex again.
''Fine, Piper! Whatever! Have fun with your friend while I jerk myself off!'' Larry replied in a huff as he ended the call.
Piper stood shocked for a moment. Larry had always been a whiny kind of guy, especially when it came to sex. It always felt like more of a chore than a pleasuring experience, it could never even be compared to sex with Alex which was mind blowing. But in the time they've been together, the blonde had never heard her boyfriend react like that. A part of her knew she should feel sick to her stomach with guilt for cheating on her boyfriend, especially as he rang during the middle, but the blonde didn't feel an ounce of guilt. Piper felt many emotions at the moment, but guilt wasn't one of them.
'I'm a horrible person. I'm an awful, horrible person! I cheated on my boyfriend with my ex-girlfriend. I cheated on my boyfriend with a woman. While he's home alone, waiting on me to come home. I'm horrible because I cheated on my boyfriend. I'm awful because I don't feel guilty about it. I could go home right now, be the attentive girlfriend and help him jerk off… But I don't want to. I really don't want to. The thought kind of repulses me, if I'm honest. But I would happily go into Alex's bedroom and get her off right now… I'm a horrible person. I'm an awful, horrible person!' Piper was lost in her thoughts, still clutching her phone when the brunette startled her.
''Everything alright out here?'' Alex asked as she circled her arms around the blonde from behind, making the younger woman jump.
''Fuck! You scared me, Alex. Yeah, everything's fine… I- I, umm…'' Piper answered, unsure of what to say or do.
''Let me guess, that was the boyfriend?'' Alex asked with a raised eyebrow.
''Yeah, it was.'' Piper replied as she looked away awkwardly.
''What? You have to go home to your boyfriend and your perfect little life now?'' Alex questioned sarcastically, trying to put up a brave front.
''No! I- I… Yes. Maybe? I don't know!'' Piper stuttered nervously feeling confused at what she wanted.
''It's okay, kid. Do what you gotta do!'' Alex replied as she adjusted her already perfectly placed glasses. A nervous habit that her ex-girlfriend always remembered.
''I don't want to go… I want to stay here with you, Al.'' Piper said honestly as she reached for the older woman's hand and laced their fingers together.
Alex leaned into the blonde and kissed her softly. The kiss went from a few pecks to open mouth kissing with tongue, quickly. The brunette ended the kiss naturally and stared into ocean blue eyes, seeing only desire burning in them. Knowing what they both desperately wanted, Alex pulled her ex-girlfriend into the bedroom and slowly removed her robe. Piper removed the older woman's black, silk robe, leaving the (ex) couple standing completely naked opposite the other. Alex kissed the blonde soft and lazily to begin with, as if they had all the time in the world. Soon the kiss turned passionate, tongues battling, nipping bottom lips only to soothe them with a gently tongue. Alex took her time making love to her ex-girlfriend over the next two hours; kissing every bit of soft, smooth, tanned skin and worshipping her body with kisses and gentle movements, leaving the occasional (accidental) hickey. Alex tried to convey all the love she held for the blonde into those few rounds of love making.
Just before midnight when the (ex) couple was completely spent, the blonde was on the verge of dozing off in her lovers arms when the brunette placed a few gentle kisses on her lips and took one last, longing look at the love of her life, almost trying to memorize every inch of her for eternity.
''Hey, Pipes… You need to wake up, baby.'' Alex whispered as she placed another few kisses on the blonde's lips.
''Mmm, why? I'm sleepy, Al.'' Piper mumbled in her tired state.
Alex took a deep breath to steady herself before she said. ''You need to go, Pipes!''
''What? What do you mean?'' Piper asked as she bolted upright, any notion of sleep vanished.
''You should go home to your boyfriend. It's the best thing for you, babe!'' Alex said with a serious expression.
''How do you know what's best for me, Alex?'' Piper asked getting angry.
''I don't… But I know it's not me!'' Alex replied as she stared into the blonde's eyes.
''It's always been you!'' Piper responded with tears filling her eyes.
''It shouldn't be, kid. I'm not good for you! I don't want you to wait around, putting your life on hold for me. I'm going to prison, Pipes… For at least 20 years!'' Alex pleaded with the blonde to see reason. To make this easier on them both and just leave, like she does best.
''I love you, Alex. I'm not leaving you again. Especially when you need me! Nothing you can say will make me leave!'' Piper said stubbornly as she curled into her ex-girlfriend.
Alex loved Piper with all her heart. She never knew she could feel so much love for another person. The brunette had an important decision to make… Sacrifice her own happiness for the happiness of Piper. In her mind, it was a no-brainer. Piper came first. She would do anything to make the blonde happy and no matter how many years they were apart, she would still do anything for Piper. It was going to deeply hurt Alex… It almost killed her the first time and after getting a small taste, it will probably most definitely kill her this time, but that was a chance she had to take for Piper's happiness.
''I'm sorry, Piper. This was a mistake… I don't love you anymore!'' Alex said with a clenched jaw and serious expression. Not that the blonde could see through the tears that flooded her cheeks.
Piper couldn't even form any words to say back to the brunette. The lump that formed in her throat was that painful it felt like her throat had closed over. Tears rolled down her cheeks like a river on a rough, winter night. Piper needed to clear her head, she needed space to think. The blonde jumped out of the bed, grabbed her clothes and quickly dressed. As she raced around, she half expected the brunette to come after her and stop her telling her that she didn't mean it… But that never happened. Alex hadn't moved from the bed where the blonde had left her.
With one final look around the apartment they once shared; Piper closed the door behind her for the final time.
Now that is a cliff-hanger! Don't hate me guys… Vauseman endgame always! Let me know your thoughts. I won't leave you hanging for too long. Stay safe :)
