Chapter 8: Future plans
"Thanks for today and traveling all the way to come see me. I really enjoy having you around".
"You are welcome Al and thanks for tonight and agreeing to see me too. I enjoy spending time with you too Al. I don't know where this whole thing is going but like I said before I really like you, like a lot and I would really like to try and see where it will take us". Piper said while facing Alex.
"I like you too Pipes, a lot and I also don't know where this is going but I would like nothing more than to try. However, the distance is going to be a problem. I can't afford to come see you as often as I would like Pipes and the kind of job I am doing doesn't allow me much free time". Alex sighed heavily and closed her eyes. She hated it when things were out of her control.
"But Al I don't mind coming to visit you until we could figure something out". Piper said and looked at Alex in the eyes, so she could see the sincerity in them.
"I can't expect that of you Piper". Alex said sadly
"It's not a problem for me Al, please. Money is not an issue for me and I really do not mind at all. I don't even mind moving this side Al just, so I could get a shot to be with you because ever since I left you apartment I couldn't stop thinking about you Al. not because you saved me but because I realised that I dint want to be away from you Al". Piper said with desperation in her voice.
"I couldn't ask you to do that Pipes. I mean what you are going to do this side. Your whole family is in Manhattan". Alex said weakly.
"Alex my family could fly out here anytime to come see me. Life is too short, and I do not want to miss a short with you. I can just open a branch for my business this side and work this side or if you do not mind, you could even move to Manhattan with me Al. I will give you a job that you'll be able to earn more and get flexible timetable to allow you to study like you always wanted". Piper said with so much hope that Alex might be convinced.
"You have your own business?" Alex asked shocked.
"After that long ass speech, I gave; you only heard that I have a business? Really Al? Anyway long story short, yes I do. My dad died and left it to me. It's a magazine company".
"I'm sorry about your dad pipes. What is the name of the magazine?" Alex said sincerely and asked Piper something different to change the subject.
"Chapman Corazon. My dad loved speaking Spanish amongst other things, thus the name".
"Oh, my word thee Chapman Corazon? Now I know why your name sounded so familiar. Oh, my word I thought maybe you just shared the name. So, you are the daughter of the late business guru Bill Chapman and your mom is the famous movie director in the entire industry Carol Chapman". Alex said with awe in her voice and then it dawned on her, why is someone as Piper with her? She became anxious and became quiet. Piper saw this
"Please Al I hope this doesn't changing anything between us. I really like you and it would kill me if this comes between us because I didn't choose this". Piper said in a pleading tone with her eyes shining with tears
"But people will think I am only with you for the money Pipes. I work at a diner and can barely afford to make a living and you; you're the daughter of the famous people to be ever know". Alex said weakly.
"Alex, I don't care about what people say or think. I don't mind sharing my money with you because it's just a material thing and I would give it all up just to have a chance with you". Piper said with tears flowing freely on her face and Alex could see the sincerity in Piper's words and face. She reached out, and wiped Piper's face and the latter leaned into the touch. They shared a quick peck on the lips, which felt natural to them both.
"I really like you too Pipes and I'm afraid I'm already too deep into this. So, I will give it a try but as for the moving part…" Alex did not finish her sentence before Piper answered her.
"Thanks Al. but could you at least think about it, please? You don't have to answer me now".
"But what if we don't work out?" Alex asked with her arguments resolving already.
"But what if it does Al? I do not want to miss on such a great opportunity because I was afraid it would not work. If it does not then at least I would say I tried but failed and not that I was afraid to take a chance. So please Al take a chance with me for something that could be the best that has ever happened to us. I am not saying it will be a smooth ride but at least we will be together. What do you say Al?"
"Okay Pipes I will think about it". Alex had to talk to her mom and friend first and hear their opinion.
Alex started laughing after a while and Piper asked what was so funny.
"You know I really thought you were straight but boy did my gaydar throw me off". She laughed some more, and Piper joined her.
"I also thought you were straight too Al". Alex's eyes grew wide at this.
"Are you kidding me Pipes? My gayness is like an aura that can be sniffed from afar". They both laughed at this and went quiet for a bit.
"You know I told my mom about you and we having a 'date' her words not mine by the way and she wants to meet you," Ale said out of nowhere but was anxious for Piper's reaction.
"Funny because my mom said the same thing and she wanted me to bring back home the girl that made me this happy, so she could see her". Piper said with a smile.
They both smiled and decided to let each other meet each other's parents and should their plans work then this will be perfect for them. Alex became serious once again
"So, what are we? Are we dating or…? I know on my side that I don't want to see anyone else," Alex said to Piper.
"Yes, we are dating, and I also don't want to see anyone else, so we are exclusive" Piper replied with a smile.
"Goodnight pipes"
"Goodnight Al"
They both turned off the bed lamps on either side, which were the only once illuminating the room. Both could not sleep after the deep conversation they just shared. They tossed and turned. "Could she be asleep already?" Piper thought.
"I can hear you thinking out loud. You can't sleep?" Alex said into the darkness of the hotel room.
"Yes, I can't sleep, and I can see that you can't too". They went quiet for a moment and Piper broke the silence, "You know I have been thinking…"
"Yes." Alex encouraged her to continue.
"After the conversation we just had I feel so connected with you on a whole new level and I realise that I don't want to share that with anyone else you know". Piper elevated her head on her arm and Alex copied her movement.
"What are you saying exactly pipes?" Alex asked but she could already see where this was going because she felt the same way.
"What I mean is that I don't want us to date Alex, I want was to be more than that. So, Alex Pearl Vause…"
"Yes, Piper Elizabeth Chapman"
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
"Yes" Alex answered with a smile that reached her eyes.
"Yeah?" Piper was grinning with her whole face lighting up.
"Yes, you idiot." Alex chuckled, and they shared a soft kiss. They switched off their bed lamp and immediately Spooned with Alex being the bigger spoon and it was passed midnight when they finally closed their eyes and slept peacefully with smiles on their faces.
….
They woke up around 08hoo am with their legs tangled together with Pier's body half on Alex and Half on the bed with Alex sleeping on her back with her right hand on Piper's waist. They both looked at each other and smiled.
"Good morning, girlfriend" Alex said with an emphasis on the word girlfriend and smiled at Piper and with her sultry voice being even raspier due to just having woken up Piper thought she was going to Pass out. Piper smiled and replied.
"Good morning Al."
Piper pecked Alex's lips and smiled. "I like the fact that I can just do that now" she said.
"I like that too Pipes. So, what's on today's agenda?"
"Coffee first, I need coffee to be able to function properly. I will order room service. What do you want for breakfast Al?"
"Coffee sounds good right now and maybe some French toast with scrambled eggs please. Is it okay if I use the bathroom? I need to take a shower. Which reminds me I don't have a toothbrush".
"Of course, you can and in the mean time I will order us some breakfast. You can always my toothbrush, I mean last time I was at your apartment I used yours too. Or we could ask the hotel to bring you one from their shop". Piper replied, and Alex did not want Piper spending money on her than she already has and just agreed to use Piper's and she really did not mind at all.
They both untangled each other but soon missed each other heat. They stretched and reached for their phones before doing what they had planned.

…
They both did not wait for a reply when they placed their phones back on their nightstands, focused on each other, and shared a quick kiss then Alex went to the bathroom while Piper called for room service.
Alex finished shortly, and they shared breakfast by the small balcony. Piper decided to go take a shower herself before they could plan the day.
"Feel free to use the hotel phone going to be quick then we will see what we can do".
"Okay thanks". Piper stood up and kissed Alex on the cheek and they both smiled.
"I will be right back." In addition, with that she retrieved to the bathroom while Alex remained on the balcony and enjoyed the view and peaceful feeling it brought her. Then she thought about their early morning conversation and the fact that she is now Piper's girlfriend and smiled. She decided to call her mom with the hotel phone.

DIANE: Alex oh my baby I dint know it was you. Whose phone is this?
