Piper awoke to loud noise. It was then she realised everyone was arguing. Piper sat up and looked over to Alex who was looking over the wall and checking out what was going on. "What the fuck is happening?" Piper asked. Alex snapped her head round told her to be quite. Alex slowly krept over to pipers bed and sat infront of her. "A few new inmates came in today, and someone attacked a guard." Alex paused before she carried on. "No one saw what happened but the guard is out cold." Alex finished. "Oh my! What guard?" Piper was shocked, 'who would attack a guard?' She thought to herself. "There are loads of rumours but the only guard I havent seen is bennette, apparently he got In her face about not wearing her prison tag, and then she lost it and stabbed him with a fucking razor" they both cursed under their breath. "The girl got taken to to max and an abulence came around 20 minutes ago for a guard." Did they really want to spend their life in prison? "We have to stay close together from now on I don't want anyone messing with us and I defiantly don't want you to get hurt." Piper just looked at Alex and nodded.

Hours passed before every one got quite again. It was time for count so piper put it down to that. Once the guards had gone round an agonizing 3 times, each cube got called one by one to go to dinner. Piper and Alex were one of the first to get called, they looked at each other with confusion and their bunk wasnt that clean. However they made there way to the dining hall. Both of them stood close together but not to close they caused suspicion from the guards. Everyone was on high alert as they ate. The usual Nicky, Lorna, Yoga Jones, Sister, Alex and Piper sat together. "In all th ttime ive been here, never had I know a new inmate to do that!" Nicky whispered. Everyone just shrugged and finished of their food. Again piper and alex walked back to their cube together for mail call. Once back Alexs name was called and she got a few books and a letter. Piper wanted to know who the letter was from but she let it slide as she hoped alex would tell her anyway. Next a few other people were called, until chapman was called out twice in a row. Piper was confused to say the least but went up to get her mail. She ended up carrying back 12 letters, 4 magazines and 6 books. No wonder she was called twice. There was four from Alex, of course being in shu for two weeks and this being her first mail call she only just got them. "Hey Alex, i just got 4 letters from you" piper said. Alex nodded and looked through her email.'fuck' piper cursed. She had three letters from Polly. She opened it and read:

Piper

Please know that I never wanted to hurt you like I have. We need to talk, I miss you. I never told you what truly happened between me and Larry. I know you, and I know you most likely dont want to talk to me but please, call me.

Love, P

Piper felt anger rise as she opened the next letter:

Piper

I did as you asked and her parole officer busted her with a gun pointing in his face! Did you read that Piper, A GUN! I know you dont see her as dangerous but i do! I need to see you, i need to talk to you. Please call me as soon as you can.

Love, P

Piper didnt dare open any more before she lest her cube to phone Polly. She waited a couple mintues before she called Polly. After a few rings Polly picked up. "Hey Piper, I was hoping to hear from you" Polly said. "Well not so much for me, im still angry but I wanted to thank you for what you did fot me. When you said you wanted to see me, would you like to come up on Friday?" Piper finished with a loud gasp, not having any idea why she heald her breath all that time. Polly chuckled before she said she would see her then and hung up. Next Piper called cal, he picked up on the first ring. "Hey Pipes!" Cal sounded so happy to hear from her. "Hey cal, i was wondering, do you and Neri want to come and see me saturday?" Piper asked. "Hell yeah!" He replied. "Thanks cal, ill see you saturday!" Piper felt very content with her phone calls and made her way back to her bunk when Alex was on her way out. "Hey baby, where you going?" Piper asked. "Just to the phones. Ill see you for lights out." They made there way back past each other and Piper walked into her bunk and read the rest of her letters, nothing important, random friends sending her books.

Once alex was back in their bunk, piper noticed she was a bit off. So Piper made her way over to alexs bunk, cuddling Alex to her chest. "Wanna talk about it Al?" Piper asked. Alex shook her head and leaned back and pulled her cover over her. Piper got up and gave Alex a kiss on her forehead. "Im here if you wanna talk.. i... i love you Al" alex looked at Piper and nodded. "I love you too Pipes." They got in their own bed and stared at each other until they both fell asleep.
