Saturday night was finally here. Alex had her costume on checking herself out in the mirror. She's wearing a black one sleeve faux leather hooded jacket with long tails and a lace up front, showing off some cleavage. The left shoulder has a piece of what looks like armor. She has black fingerless gloves on, skimpy black shorts and black thigh highs. Her hair slightly wavy as she delicately lifted the hood over her head to complete the look. She walks out of Nickys room and makes her way to the living room where she could hear the sound of laughter. Lorna is sitting on Nickys lap wearing a red strapless dress that hugged her chest and came down to her knees. She wore black stockings and white high heels. Her hair is up in a tight bun. Nicky is wearing a grey tux with a black undershirt, a gray tie that has black and white stripes going down it, and black dress shoes. Alex noticed Nickys hair was pinned up underneath the black fedora she has on.

"Wow Nichols you clean up nice."

A smug look on Nickys face as she replied. "Yeah well, got to look the part for my girl ya know." Lorna giggled as Nicky hugged her tight. "Sylvie is coming tonight right?"

Alex let out a sigh and gave a one word answer "Yep."

"Oh boy this ought to be fun." Nicky smiled.

"Wait what happened? What did I miss?" Lorna confused about what was going on between Sylvie and Alex.

"Oh Alex forgot to tell her babysitter where she was going to be all night last night and didn't want to answer her phone calls."

"I'm assuming Sylvie is the babysitter."

Nicky hugged Lorna tight again "You got it." Alex was about to say something when her phone went off. It was a text from Sylvie.

"Well looks like I'm off the hook for now. Sylvie has to work late tonight." A sigh of relief. She wouldn't have to worry about having an argument with her in public or around her friends.

"Good! Fuck her! Now you can have some real fun." Nicky was right. This was the perfect time to finally have a fun night with friends away from Sylvie. Free from the clinginess even if it was just for the day. "Well what are we waiting for?! Let's get this show on the road."

Nicky, Lorna and Alex make their way to Mendez's house and park just a couple houses down. They get out of the car and make their way up to the house where they can hear the music coming from inside. They look around them noticing they aren't the only ones arriving right now. Lorna started fidgeting with her outfit. "Oh I hope I look okay." Nicky took Lornas hand into hers and looked her in the eyes lovingly.

"You look great doll." She leaned in and kissed her passionately.

"Alright love birds save it for later." Nicky chuckled and gave Alex the finger which made Alex laugh.

"Alright let's do this!" Nicky grabs Lornas hand and pulls her up to the house, Alex following behind them. Nicky knocks on the door and is greeted by someone in a batman costume. "My god I've found the bat cave! Quick Vause to the batmobile!" Nicky shouts throwing her arm out pointing forward into the house and marching inside. Lorna giggled as she was pulled inside and Alex couldn't help but laugh. The house is booming with music and chatter. Every room they went to is crowded with people. They pass the backyard deck causing Nicky to stop in her tracks. "You smell that? They all must be smoking it out here! I guess it's not a party without some Mary Jane." They keep on walking throughout the house coming across a room that was clearly dedicated to those who wanted to dance. The furniture is moved out of the way and the lights are going on and off making it feel like you were in a night club.

"Come on Nicky dance with me!" Lorna pulled on Nickys hand and led them into the room. Alex shouted after them that she was going to check out the drinks they had and went towards the kitchen. Weaving through people she finally makes it to the kitchen. The counters are littered with empty bottles and cups. The kitchen floor felt sticky as Alex made her way over to the fridge, not really wanting to know what the stickiness was.

"There something I can get for you?" A voice came from behind her. She quickly turned around finding a guy wearing nothing but a thong.

Alex eyes grew big. "What the fuck?"

The guy nervously laughed. "I lost a bet. So I had to shave everywhere and come to this party in just a thong." Alex shook her head. "I'm Larry." He extended his hand out for her to shake. Alex just looked at his hand before he awkwardly pulled it back. "And you are?"

"Thirsty. What all do they have here?"

"Beer mostly. Georges older brother hooked him up."

"Sounds good to me." She opens the fridge and pulls out a bottle.

"Here." Larry got a plastic cup and tried to hand it to her. Alex just rolled her eyes, twisted the cap off the bottle and took a big swig before making her way out of the kitchen.

"Oh by the way, your family jewels are hanging out." She quickly rounded the corner shaking her head trying to get rid of the image that was seared into her mind. She made her way back to the room where Nicky and Lorna were still dancing. She leaned up against a wall and glanced around the room taking in the different faces around her until she stopped on one. She looked this girl up and down taking in the sight before her. She's wearing a gray strapless corset that has a light blue and gray faux fur panel on the front and light blue corset lacing up the back. The mini skirt, has a wide swath of blue and grey faux fur and a long grey with light blue stripes plush tail attached to the back of the skirt. She's wearing a grey fur hood that has attached ears, her hair flowing perfectly out the front of it. The leg warmers matched the pattern of the tail she wore. She is also wearing fingerless faux fur gloves that was half light blue the other half grey. She was standing there talking to someone in a very pink dress and a guy wearing a lamp shade on his head and a box that said 'one night stand.'

"Alex where did you get the beer?"

Her gaze never leaving the sight before her, she replies "Kitchen." Purposely not mentioning the half-naked guy in there. Nicky and Lorna walk off toward the kitchen. Alex couldn't help but stare at this girl. She watches as her friends leave her standing there alone and suddenly her legs were moving her towards her. She could feel the butterflies in her stomach as she got closer and closer. Her heart beating faster and faster. 'Why do I feel this way about her?' She thinks to herself. Finally reaching the girl she leans in close and says something in her ear. "Care to dance?" The girl quickly turned around to see who asked her to dance. Realizing who it was, a huge smile formed on her face.

"I can't believe you talked me into going to this party."

"Oh come on Pol, it will be fun."

They ring the doorbell to the Mendez residence and are greeted by George himself wearing a police uniform and sucking on an orange lollipop.

"Hello ladies." He stares Polly up and down and takes the lollipop out of his mouth. "What are you? The fucking tooth fairy?"

"N...No I'm…"

Turning his gaze to Piper and interrupting Polly "And you are obviously a pussy cat." He emphasized the word pussy.

"Nothing gets passed you." Piper said sarcastically.

"Well I am a police officer. It's my job to be observant." He popped the lollipop back in his mouth. "Now as part as my duty as an officer I am going to have to frisk you."

"Ew!" Both women replied at the same time.

"Come on ladies. Once you get a feel for these hands you'll always want them on you." Getting annoyed Polly grabs Pipers hand and pushes her way through causing Mendez to be forced up against the side of the door. He throws up his hand surrendering "Alright alright playing hard to get. Don't worry! I'll be here all night if you change your mind."

"What a creep." They make their way through the house, checking out all the rooms until they come across a room that was meant for dancing. They stand in the back watching others walk into the room, discussing which costumes they like and which ones they don't. One guy walked in with just a thong on and they both couldn't help but laugh. They talked for what seemed for hours before Pipers mind started drifting to the event that happened at the mall parking lot, not fully paying attention to anything else Polly was saying. She had another episode, though it wasn't like the one she had in school. This one she saw things that weren't there and it scared her. Then her mind started to drift to the women that she ran into. She thought about the raven haired girl, the way she looked, the sound of her voice, her beautiful green eyes and even her sexy secretary glasses. She started smiling just thinking about her and then she remembered Alex had mentioned something about going to a party. 'Could she have meant this one?' Piper thought to herself. She felt anxious. Her eyes started scanning the room for the raven haired girl.

"Piper…Piper!"

Startled she turned back to her friend "What?"

"Who are you looking for?

"No one. I just thought I saw someone I knew."

"I was trying to tell you Pete here asked if we wanted to walk around the neighborhood with him. Check out the other houses." Piper didn't even realize a third person had join their little group.

"No that's alright I'll just hang out here."

Polly gave her a curious look. "You sure you'll be okay here by yourself?"

"Polly I'll be fine. Go!"

Piper watches Polly and Pete leave the room. She thinks about looking around the room again when she feels the presence of someone behind her. "Care to dance?" Piper quickly turns around to see who just asked her to dance. Realizing who it is, a huge smile forms on her face.

"Alex! I was wondering when you were going to show up"

Alex raised an eyebrow and a huge smirk formed on her face. "Piper Chapman, were you waiting for me?"

Nervous she replies, "What?! No… I…Its just you said you were going to a party so I figured it would be this one since everyone was invited to this one and it would have been nice to have someone else to talk to."

"What about the chick in the pink? Plus there are a lot of people at this party you can talk to."

"Her name is Polly and she left with Pete to take a walk around the neighborhood. Besides I would feel a lot more comfortable talking to you."

"How do you know? We did just officially meet yesterday."

Piper started to nervously fidget. "Just a feeling I guess."

"So if I'm understanding you correctly, you were in fact waiting for me to show!"

Alex noticed Piper was blushing now. She got closer and started playing with one of the hood strings. "No need to feel embarrassed." She trailed her fingers down the string and moved over to her right arm, trailing down it and took Pipers hand into hers. Rubbing her thumb in circles on the back of Pipers hand. The touch from Alex made Piper shiver. They looked at each other, gazing into each other eyes in a comfortable, expectant silence.

"You asshole!" Piper dropped her gaze, startled at the voice. Alex dropped her hand from Pipers and turned around knowing full well who it was. "You didn't tell me I was going to be scarred for life by naked lad in there!"

"Oh yeah! Hey Nichols there's a half-naked guy in the kitchen." Nicky notices the blonde standing behind her. She looks up at Alex curiously before understanding what she was interrupting.

"Meeeeeoooow. I'll uh…I'll catch you later there Vause." She winks before walking away. Alex smirks turns her gaze back to Piper. Piper looks back up noticing the piercing green eyes behind the secretary glasses. 'God she's gorgeous' Piper thought to herself blushing again.

"I noticed your girlfriend isn't here" Piper stated forcing herself to look around the room. Alex leans up against the wall next to them.

"Very observant." She said with a smile "She's working late."

"You seem happy about that. I thought couples always wanted to be with each other?"

Alex takes another swig of her beer and let out a sigh "It's complicated."

"But you love her don't you?"

"Jesus what is this twenty questions?" She slams the bottle on the shelf next to her.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to pry." Piper looks down at the floor, kicking herself mentally for bringing it up and upsetting Alex. 'Why did I have to say anything? Why couldn't I have picked a different topic? You know talk about the weather or classes or books…something' Piper thought to herself. Without warning Alex took Pipers hand and started pulling her towards the dance floor. "What are you doing?"

"WE are going to dance." They stood in front of each other as the next song started to play. Other couples dancing around them to the fast pace music. Piper felt nervous and Alex was picking up on it. "Dance like there's nobody watching or filming. Never mind that creepy guy in the corner with the camcorder." Piper looked around the room trying to find who Alex was talking about only to realize she was messing with her. Chuckling Alex added "Just dance." They started moving into each and away in an unspoken ritual, eyes locked, arms moving, hips grinding. Alex fingers skim every expose part of Pipers skin that sends an electric shock through her body. Suddenly Alex felt a hand on her shoulder pulling her back. Piper immediately stopped dancing.

"Alex we have to get out of here!" It was Lorna with fear in her eyes. Piper moves in closer so she can hear what is going on.

"What's wrong? Where's Nicky?"

"There was a nark. Nicky is getting the car so we can get out of here. Come on we gotta go!" Lorna quickly made her way towards the exit. Without a second thought, Alex grabs Pipers hand and pulls her along with her. They weave their way through the crowd finally making it outside. The sound of police sirens going off in the distance. Alex spots Lorna getting into Nickys car, which is right in front of the house, and makes her way towards them. She opens the back door of the car and helps Piper get in. Piper scoots over to the far left seat making room for Alex to get in. As soon as Alex gets in and closes the door, Nicky slams her foot on the gas and takes off down the street. They round the corner, spotting a couple cop cars passing by them.

"Oh Nichols that was really close." Lorna said a bit nervously. Nicky didn't respond. Her grip around the steering wheel was tight, she was clenching her jaw and glaring out the windshield. She kept on driving until she came across a coffee shop and pulled into the parking lot. Nicky got out of the car and reached into her tux pocket, pulling out money to give to Lorna.

"Here doll. Buy us some drinks and take blondie with you." Piper looked at Alex, who gave her a slight nod, before following Lorna inside. Once they were out of earshot Alex turned to Nicky noticing she was pulling at her tie trying to loosen it.

"Nichols you okay?" Alex questioned.

"That fucking bitch!"

"Who?"

"Your fucking girlfriend Vause, that's who!" She finally got the tie off and threw it into the car.

"Sylvie?"

She started taking the pins out of her hair. "Yes, she was there. She saw you talking to blondie back there and just freaked out. We could have gotten in a shit ton of trouble back there not just from the alcohol but the weed as well, and I'm pretty sure they were doing smack upstairs. I don't care if I get in trouble, heck trouble is my middle name, but I couldn't live with myself if Lorna got caught up in it."

"Fuck I'm sorry Nicky." Alex took off her glasses and pinched the bridge of her nose with her hand. 'I can't believe this.' was all she could think to herself. She hears a ringtone go off and pulls out her phone. It's Sylvie and she answers it.

"You gotta be fucking kidding me. You're calling me after that bullshit move you just pulled. What the hell is the matter with you?"

"Alex I'm sorry. I saw you talking to some chick and I got jealous."

"So it made sense to call the police on the whole fucking party just for talking to some girl?!"

"Alex listen I…"

"No, you know what? I don't want to hear whatever bullshit excuse you're about to give…I've had just about enough of you as I can take." She takes a deep breath to calm herself. "Don't call, text or even speak to me at school. This is over…" Alex swiftly hangs up, tightly gripping her phone in her hand. She leans up against the back of the car 'Breath in and out' her mind keeps telling her.

Piper and Lorna walk out of the coffee shop, a beverage in each hand. Lorna hands one to Nicky and they sit on the car hood together. Piper walks up to Alex and hands a cup of coffee to her. She leans against the back of the car next to her. She glances over at Alex only to see the look on her face expressionless. Piper starts to pick at the label around her bottle of water. After watching Alex, through the coffee shop window, yell on the phone at someone she was afraid to ask what was wrong. Then she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye. A girl wearing white staring back at her. The girl's mouth was moving but no sound was coming out. Piper focuses on her lips, trying to make out what the girl is saying. Alex. 'Why is this girl saying Alex's name?' She was completely engrossed into this girl. 'What else is she saying?' She feels a jolt through her hand, causing her to look away from the girl and at the hand that's placed on hers. She looks up, captivated by the slight smile and the gaze of the beautiful green eyes that are looking down at her.

"I'm sorry about tonight." Alex says putting her glasses back on.

"Don't worry about it. Never had to run away from the cops before. It was a nice first time experience."

Alex let out a chuckle before dropping her hand from Pipers and taking a sip of her coffee. Piper turns her gaze back to where she saw the girl in white, but she was gone. She hastily looks around the parking lot for any trace of the girl only to find a dark and empty parking lot.

"Yo Vause. Does Blondie need a ride home? We are about to leave." Nicky yelled back startling Piper.

"No, that's alright. Polly's house isn't far from here I'll just walk."

"I'll walk you home." Alex says, fully standing up now.

"Won't it be out of your way?"

"Don't worry about it. I just want to make sure you make it there safe."

Nicky looks over at Alex a smirk on her face "Suit yourself." She gets in the car with Lorna and they drive off, waving good-bye to Alex.

"Shall we?" Piper leads the way with Alex following close next to her. Piper's thoughts drift back to the girl she saw in the parking lot. 'Who was she?' Before long they reach the front of Polly's house.

"Sorry I've been quiet. Just a lot going through my mind tonight." Alex explains.

"Well after all the excitement who can blame you."

Alex stares at Piper before leaning in. She smiles and strokes Piper's cheek, her breath caressing the blonde's lips. Alex gets closer, moving a strand of Pipers hair away and kissing her on the soft skin where her pulse is throbbing. Alex steps back a familiar smirk returns to her lips.

"I'll see you around Piper Chapman."
