26.
"Hey baby." Piper addresses her son as she enters the room where he is currently watching his cartoons. Alex following closely behind.
"Hey mommy." He smiles up at his mother. He is always happy to see his mother, Alex thinks to herself and she can't help but have a smile of her own. Well maybe except for the time when they just met in New York and he swore thinking his mother is not close by. Alex will never get the horrified look on his face out of her mind. Well for that matter neither will she get the horrified look on the blonde's face out of her mind.
"So mommy is leaving now, but I just want to talk to you about something real quick. Can I turn down the TV for a bit."
"You're not having a sleepover with us?" The boy questions his face falling into a sad frown.
"No baby. I have some things I need to sort out before tomorrow, but I will see you in the morning okay?"
"Okay." Is the only response the mother gets and she is wondering if he is fine with it or upset about it.
"Do you want to come home with me."
Piper hardly finished her sentence before the boy shouts "NO!" startling her and she must admit she feels almost a bit hurt by it. Alex on the other hand finds it amusing and can't help but let out n little chuckle earning her a glare from the other woman.
"Wow okay, it's not like it would be the worst thing in the world. You didn't have to make is sound like that." Piper lets her son know she is a bit hurt by his reply. What she didn't know was that it actually had nothing to do with him not wanting to go with her but rather with what Alex had promised him. She was about to find out.
So Cameron diverts his eyes to Alex and she knows exactly what he was about to tell his mother. Knowing the blond was a bit hurt by her sons outburst she nods for him to go ahead.
"We still had pizza left and Alex said we can have it for breakfast."
Piper who is now sitting on the edge of the bed turned her whole body around to look at the green eyed girl leaning against the door frame and gives her one of her best 'what the fuck' glares. "Really Alex?" She asks a bit annoyed. It is obvious that Alex has tossed the handbook, so to speak, right out of the window and just does whatever she feels like. "Are you planning on raising my son on ice cream and pizza."
"I wasn't aware that I was raising him." Came Alex's snotty reply accompanied by her signature smirk.
"You know what I mean. I mean is that all you are going to feed him whenever he is with you."
"Well…" Alex starts but got interrupted by the boy. Catching the two adults attention again.
"Don't be mad at her mommy. We just didn't want it to go to waste. Alex said we will just tell you that there were hungry people all around the world and it is a sin to waste food."
"Well you weren't supposed to say it like that, boy." Alex interjects.
"but that is what you said I must say." The boy challenged Alex.
Piper now sat back comfortably with her arms crossed over her stomach watching the two. Waiting to see how this is going to play out. She wasn't going to forget about taking Alex on but the challenging looks on the two's faces were just to good to be interrupted right now.
"Yeah but you weren't supposed to say 'Alex said we will just tell you' blah blah blah. You were supposed to just say 'but mommy there are hungry people in the world. We can't waste food'." She says in a mocking voice trying to sound like Cameron.
"Then that is what you should have told me Alex. I am four. I don't know."
"For a four year old you are very clever in other departments. Like when you try and get out of school. 'my tummy hurts'." She mocks his voice again.
"Why do you talk like that." The boy questions pulling a disgusted face.
"Because that is how you talk."
"No I don't."
"Yes you do."
"No I don't." He shouts a little louder.
"Yes you…."
"Enough" a third voice interrupts and suddenly they remember that there is someone else in the room. Cameron and Alex glares at each other once more before they turn their gazes to Piper. "Did you two just have your first fight." She smirks. She has to admit it was quite entertaining. Cameron might be four years old but he will not back down. He is a feisty little rug rat and Piper can't be more proud. Even though deep down she knows he shouldn't talk to adults like that, but this was Alex and in her opinion she brought it on herself.
"Just a difference in opinion." Alex mumbles
"Yeah just a difference in opinion." Cameron says and Piper can't help but laugh a little because even though she knows her son has no idea of what he just said or what it means he said it because Alex thought it was the perfect answer. At that thought she just rolls her eyes and shakes her head.
"This is not over." Piper points to Alex and the brunette lets out a huff of annoyance. Ignoring her Piper turns back to her son. "Now for what I actually came in here to tell you." She pauses and studies the four year old a bit and then decides to just come out and say it. "So when you get home tomorrow Larry will not be there."
He just shrugs his shoulders "Okay"
"What I mean is, that he is not staying there anymore." She clarifies to make sure her son completely understand what she is saying.
"Oh good." He says and Piper looks at him with a blank expression on her face before he continues "that means Alex can stay, because she said 'this house is just not 'swearword' big enough for the both of us'" He tries mocking her voice and Alex bursts into a fit of laughter. Even though she should be completely pissed that he just burned her yet again without knowing it that was just to funny to even think about it.
Piper on the other hand just drops her head into her hands shaking her head uttering a frustrating "Alex". She does not know what she is going to do with this woman. She is turning her son into a little monster. However cute that little act just was, she can't help but wonder how many times in her life she is going to feel like pulling her hair out over the two other people in the room. When she looks up again Alex is still laughing and Cameron is sitting there with the most impressed smirk on his face she has ever seen.
"Well then, that is settled." She mumbles. Turning back to her son she leans over giving him a kiss on the forehead and pulling him into a hug. "I will see you tomorrow okay." He nods against her shoulder. "I love you."
"I love you to mommy."
Standing up off the bed she turns to find Alex standing there still with a little smirk playing on her lips. "You are so walking me out." She glares at the taller woman and immediately the smirk disappears and her shoulders falls in disappointment. Alex should have known the blond wouldn't just let it just go.
When they reach the door Piper turns around before opening it meeting Alex's gaze in a stern look. Alex needs to know that she is serious. "You can't teach my son to lie to me Alex."
"I know, I am sorry, but in my defence I really wasn't. There really are hungry people out there and I swear I have always been against wasting food. It's not a lie."
"I understand that, but that is not how he understood it, and in all honesty I don't think that is how you explained it to him. To him this is another one of the little secrets between the two of you." Piper explains her concerns and she can see the understanding and regret in Alex's eyes.
"Yeah, I guess you are right. I'm sorry. I should have handled that better." Both of them offer a small smile so they know they are okay. "So I am forgiven?" Alex asks.
"For now, but Alex you really need to stop feeding him so much pizza. Before you came along we actually had a routine. I would like it if we stuck to it." Alex just nods in agreement so Piper continues. "You didn't tell him you moved out?"
"No, I didn't really want to tell him without checking with you…"
"Well there is a first" Piper interrupts sarcastically.
Alex just rolls her eyes and continues "As I was saying I didn't just want to tell him without checking with you first and I thought that maybe he will take the news better after you and Braydon spoke to him. I think he will be on such a high about getting to know his father that he will hardly notice I am missing."
"He will notice Alex." Piper reassures her. Alex offers her a grateful smile. "I think you are right though. Maybe we can tell him tomorrow." Both of them nodding in agreement. "Okay so I will text you later to let you know what Braydon said and if he agrees you have the pleasure of telling Cameron he will be skipping school tomorrow." She pauses "He is going to love you." She says laughing.
"He already loves me." Alex very confidently replies with a laugh of her own.
"He really does." Piper agrees. Leaning against the door she takes both Alex's hands in her own stroking her thumbs over the back of her hands. She looks back up again, blue meeting green "Thank you Alex, really. You have really made this a lot easier. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't have you here with me. It doesn't matter how fucked up this situation was or is, with the support, advice, comfort you are giving me it really makes it so much easier. Not that it is easy, but you know what I mean."
"Yes I do, and you are welcome." A moment of silence passes between them, a silence filled with a lot of meaning which the both of them understands. "Are you going to be okay on your own tonight."
"I will be. I need to have this time. Just to work through my own mind. So much has happened today I am still trying to catch up. From waking up in your arms with a son who doesn't have a father, to said father turning up at my door and ending up in his arms to almost getting engaged to my boyfriend of three years but ending that relationship before it could escalate…." She pauses and putting it that way even Alex's head is spinning.
"Wow, if you put it that way." They both burst out laughing at how complicated it really sounds.
"I have to go. I have to call Braydon before it gets to late. If he agrees I still have to piss people off on set by letting them know that I am going to be late."
Piper wraps her arms around Alex's neck and pulls her into a hug. Alex's arms automatically circles around the blonde's waist holding her in a tight embrace. So much emotion passes through the two without any word needed. Alex turns her head slightly and plants soft kisses on Pipers jaw and before the shorter girl can even comprehend she turns her head to meet Alex's lips. The kiss is soft and slow at first, but pretty soon it turns more heated when Alex runs her tongue across Pipers bottom lip. She immediately welcomes Alex into her mouth and it turns into a battle for dominance. Obviously Alex wins and she can feel Pipers legs buckling under her so she wraps her arms even tighter, if possible, around the blond and backs her firmly against the door. Eventually they have to break for air but Alex has no intention of parting her lips from the body currently stuck between her and the door, so she starts kissing down Pipers neck and Piper tilts her head backwards to allow Alex more access.
Alex kisses down to Pipers collarbone and that is when the blond lets out a small moan which rips her out of her dazed state and back to reality. 'Fuck this cant be happening'. She thinks to herself. Her son is in the next room and she literally just swore off any relationships. She also does not want to lead Alex on and hurt her. That is the last thing she wants. The woman has been to good to her and does not deserve that.
"Alex" she breaths out.
Alex takes this as a pleasurable moan and keeps going so Piper lets her arms fall from around the taller girls neck and places her hands firmly on her shoulders pushing back a bit. "Alex we need to stop."
It's like reality hits Alex hard and she releases the blond with such haste you would think that she burned her. "Shit, sorry Piper. I didn't mean to…"
But Piper waves her off "It's okay. We got caught up in the moment. We both did." Both of them takes a couple of seconds to regain their composures before Piper opens the door. Looking back at Alex "I will text you later okay." And with that she leaves a still heated brunette standing there staring at the door.
"Shower it is." Alex mumbles
I will try to get another chapter to you before the end of the day, because I wont be updating over the weekend. But no promises as I haven't read through the previous one to find mistakes yet.
