Chapter 34
Just Another Month
Before everyone knew it, the Thanksgiving holiday week was over, and they were back on campus to finish out the final month of classes for the semester's end. Soon enough, everyone would be traveling back to stay with family for the month-long vacation before the Spring semester started. In the meantime, everyone had to pick their new classes, study for finals, and get ready for another holiday, all while finding time to hang out and party before they separated for a month.

Olivia plopped down on the sectional in the townhouse, cracking open a Red Bull as she pulled out her laptop to assign her classes for the Spring semester.
"This is stupid," Elliot grumbled, searching through the course catalog as he scribbled down a mock schedule. "All the good classes are taken already."
"That's what we get for waiting until today, El. We should've done this yesterday," Olivia groaned, slurping her Red Bull.
"Wanna have Professor Cragen at 12:30 Tuesdays and Thursdays for 'Race, Class, and Crime?'" Elliot suggested.
"Sure," Olivia shrugged. "What's the class number?"
Elliot read Olivia off the code, and they both successfully signed up for the class. They spent the next few minutes searching for their next class, 'Women and Crime.'
"I legit can't wait to take this class," Olivia said, intrigued.
"I'm terrified to," Elliot admitted. "Women are crazy."
"Shut up, El," Olivia laughed, throwing a pillow at him before searching through the professors and time slots. "How about Tuesdays and Thursdays at 3:00 with Professor Carmichael?"
Elliot shrugged. "Sounds good."
"We keeping Fridays free this semester? I want a damn day off," Olivia complained.
"We should be able to make it work. We still have to schedule our 'Police Organization and Management,' 'Cybercrime,' and 'Family Violence' courses."
Olivia and Elliot spent the next 30 minutes scheduling their classes together before finally finalizing them, as Kathy came waltzing into the townhouse.
"Hey baby," Kathy said, giving Elliot a kiss on the lips before wrapping her arms around Olivia from behind the couch, kissing the top of her head. "Hey, Liv! I missed you! How was Thanksgiving?"
"Yeah, how did that go?" Elliot asked.
Olivia immediately began laughing, unsure of where to even begin.
"Oh, this'll be good!" Elliot said, rubbing his hands together and hopping up to grab some beers before plopping back down on the couch, arm around Kathy. "Fill us in!"
Olivia spent the next 40 minutes talking about her holiday with Alex's family. She told them everything from the first encounter when she was terrified of her parents, to the awkward family drama on Thanksgiving, to getting caught having sex by Alex's mom. She even explained to them about her grandfather and how he took the news. She topped it off by droning on about the Black Friday shopping that Alex drug her to, which was a new experience in and of itself.
"Jesus Christ!" Elliot laughed, wiping his tears away. "Wait, wait, wait. Blondie had Red be the call-out? And you still got caught? Ha!"
"Shut up, El!" Olivia laughed, blushing as she worried her bottom lip between her teeth. "Do you know how terrifying it is to be confronted like that?! Her mom had just found out Alex was gay! And here I am, standing in the hallway, and she knew. I know she knew. The way she was looking at me… she knew I had just fucked her daughter… oh my God." Olivia buried her face in her hands, embarrassed at the memory.
"And they let you drink with them?" Kathy asked, eyebrows raised. "That's crazy. Elliot's parents wouldn't let him and he's legal now!"
"Yeah, it was incredible though. And now, I can make pies. Just wait 'til I show you!"

"Ugh! I can't focus!" Alex slammed her book closed and buried her head in her hands, elbows propped against her desk.
"Why?" Casey asked, turning around from her own desk.
"I hate Economics! Why! Why do I have to even bother with this!" Alex laid her head down on top of her book, lightly picking up her forehead as she let it rest back down on the book, repeatedly.
Casey chuckled at Alex. "Alex, it's okay. After finals next week you're done with it! What's your grade right now anyways?"
"97.6," Alex groaned into the book.
If Alex was looking at Casey, she would've seen the glare she was getting from her best friend. "Really, Alex? You're fine! Just take a break. Help me study for Political Science! Trevor and I didn't pay attention last week. We kept sexting."
Alex finally turned around and glared at Casey. "With me in-between you?!"
"Oh, shut up!" Casey defended. "Do you know how many times I've heard you and Olivia doing it at their house?!"
Alex chuckled, smirking at the numerous times they had been heard by someone in that house.
"Okay, okay, fine. I'll help you study. Speaking of Liv, you coming with me to the Christmas party they're throwing next Friday?"
"Yup. Our parents are coming on the following Monday to pick us up for Christmas break, right? That's when we have to be out of the dorms?" Casey asked.
Alex nodded. "Yeah. I need to ask Liv what she's doing for Christmas. I can't imagine being away from her an entire month… but, after Thanksgiving, I can't see my parents letting her stay again." There was a sadness to her voice.
Casey pursed her lips and nodded in agreement, unsure of what to say. "Oh well, you can figure that out later. Let's get back to studying!"
Friday, December 20, 2013
The gang was all together at the townhouse, drinking egg nog and alcohol as they talked about the end of the semester. Everyone had on an ugly Christmas sweater and had a gag gift for the white elephant exchange. Christmas movies were playing on the TV as everyone laughed and joked around with one another.
"Jesus, guys!" Kathy complained as she opened the fridge, covering her nose. "Do you guys ever clean anything out?! How do you find anything in here!"
Moving about the kitchen, she surveyed the pile of dishes that filled the sink and covered the counters, the clothes and towels and boxes that covered the floor, and the empty beer bottles and cans.
"Seriously, who fucking cleans this place?!"
"No one," Elliot said with a laugh.
"That's a lady's job," Tim groaned, looking at Olivia, earning him death glares from all the females.
Olivia scoffed and shook her head, her green Santa hat swaying on her head as she held Alex on her lap. "Don't look at me! And don't be so misogynistic, asshole. You live here too, so you clean up."
"You guys seriously couldn't have cleaned up before the party at least?" Kathy complained.
"Hey, you were here too!" Johnny defended, holding Amanda in his lap. "You have a problem, you clean it!"
Kathy gritted her teeth as she threw a half-filled Gatorade bottle at Johnny that she picked up from the floor.
"Eww!" Johnny said, picking it up and examining the amber liquid inside. "Whose piss bottle is this?"
"Oh my GOD," Kathy groaned, shaking her hands after she realized what it was. "Who the fuck does that?! Guys!"
Everyone groaned in disgust as he sat it on the coffee table.
"Well, it wasn't fucking me," Olivia said. "So I'll be damned if I have anything to do with it."
"You guys are sick," Amanda complained, folding her arms across her chest.
"Seriously, just get up and piss!" Olivia added, annoyed with her roommates.
"Hey, hey, hey! Where'd the Christmas spirit go?!" Elliot said, trying to get everyone to calm down.
"In the closet with the cleaning supplies," Kathy grumbled, now sitting on Elliot's lap.
"Y'all need to clean this shit up before you leave for break," Amanda said.
"Seriously," Kathy groaned. "Don't leave Liv with this mess!"
Alex looked at Olivia. Is she staying here by herself? All of Christmas?
"No, Al," Olivia whispered, catching her girlfriend staring at her. "I won't let you talk me into another Cabot holiday. I don't think I can face your mom again."
Alex laughed as she gave a Olivia a kiss. "Why not? Don't want her to catch us with our pants down again?"
"Huh?" Johnny asked, catching their conversation. "Wait, what happened?"
"Yeah, what was that?" Tim asked, also interested.
Casey began cackling on Trevor's lap as everyone turned their attention to Olivia and Alex.
"Nothing," Olivia quickly deflected, chugging the rest of her beer can before crushing it and throwing it behind her somewhere on the floor.
Kathy sighed. "Liv! You're part of the problem."
"The second I pick anything up around here, the boys will think I'll do it. Nah. Not happening. I'll continue to just clean my own room."
Alex snorted as she took a sip of her own drink, not looking at Olivia.
"What?" Olivia said, pulling back a bit from Alex to survey her reaction. "What!?"
"You do not clean your room, either. That room is a mess, Liv. I don't think you've folded anything in the past month. Your clothes are all over the place, as are beer cans, whiskey bottles, and cigarette butts on plates. You are just as messy as the guys."
"Hey!" Olivia defended, her mouth open, clearly shocked by Alex's admission. "My room is clean… sometimes."
"The first few weeks we dated. Once you had me hooked, you stopped trying to impress me," Alex teased.
Everyone gave a few "oohhs" as Olivia pursed her lips and nodded her head, refusing to look at Alex now.
Alex tried to give Olivia a kiss but she kept backing away from her. "Nope. Can't let anyone see you kissing a slob."
"Oh stop it!" Alex laughed, finally grabbing Olivia's face and giving her a kiss that wasn't reciprocated. "Quit acting like the Grinch. You're messy and you know it. I'm not about to bullshit you."
"Can we back up to the part about your pants down?" Tim asked. "What happened?"
"They got caught fuckin'," Elliot said, his mouth full of a Christmas cookie. Olivia closed her eyes and laid her head back against the couch.
"By who?" Johnny asked, suddenly intrigued. "Other than everyone in this fucking house."
Alex blushed as Olivia flipped him off. "Yeah, like we don't hear you and Amanda doing it every weekend."
"Shut up," Amanda said, burying her face in her hands.
"Stop deflecting!" Johnny said.
"Alex's mom," Elliot answered, chomping on another cookie.
"Oh, dude, no fucking way!" Tim chortled. "Damn, Benson. Can't get enough, huh?"
"Uhhh, it was Alex's fault!" Olivia said, putting all the blame on Alex, who was staring at her, mouth wide open as she smacked her arm.
"Oh, was it my fault, Olivia? Technically, Casey didn't warn us fast enough!"
"Hey, woah, woah, woah!" Casey defended, perking up in Trevor's lap. "Alex, don't even go there! That's bullshit! I texted you three fucking times! You're the one who 'told Olivia not to stop.'"
Everyone was cackling as Alex chewed on her lip, trying to stop herself from smirking. "See? Then it's her fault!"
"What?!" Olivia scoffed, immediately bringing her hands to Alex's sides to tickle her mercilessly, causing her to squeal. "You're the one that needed two orgasms!"
"Yeah, and then who gave you three in a row that night?!" Alex deflected, trying to pin Olivia's wrists and get them away from her.
"Oh my God," Elliot groaned, covering his ears.
"What the fuck is with you lesbians?" Johnny asked sincerely. "Damn! Amanda, was it like this when you were with her?"
"I'm not answering that question. Don't make this awkward," Amanda said, begging for him to shut up. She really didn't want to relive her one-night-stand with Olivia; especially with Alex being her girlfriend now.
Alex though, apparently wanted to know. "No, I think you should tell us. I'm curious."
"No, Alex," Olivia begged. "Come on, can we not? Amanda and I are on good terms now. Can we not fuck that up?"
"Why would that fuck it up? You're both over it, right? And, you're with me now. Wait, were you a total dick to her?"
Olivia let her mouth hang open as her eyebrows furrowed.
"During it? No. Afterwards? Yes," Amanda answered. "To answer your question, babe, no, it wasn't like that. It was a really quick fuck, with only one orgasm. Olivia wouldn't even let me touch her."
Alex raised her eyebrows at Olivia, whose arms were folded across her chest. "Okay, thanks for sharing, I'm gonna go sleep in my messy room now."
"Liv, baby, come on," Alex begged, wrapping her arms around her shoulders. "I'm sorry. I was just nosy."
"Yeah, yeah," Olivia grumbled as Alex kissed her cheek.
"Come on, we need to do the white elephant now and liven the mood!" Alex suggested, clicking on the lights on her reindeer antlers as she pushed her glasses up on her nose. Olivia couldn't help but smile. Alex was just so damned cute.
Everyone was in tears laughing as Elliot held up the white elephant gift he just unwrapped. It was a Rudolph mankini – the nose of the reindeer being where we would insert his manhood.
"Wow," Elliot said, smiling bright, laughing. "Shall I go try it on?"
"Dear God, NO!" Kathy said, covering her face in embarrassment.
"Please, El. Please put it on," Olivia said, wiping tears from her eyes.
"Unless someone wants to steal it?!" Kathy suggested. But, no one stole it.
Elliot cracked open a beer and chugged it before running to the bathroom to change.
"Okay, okay, who's next?" Olivia asked. They were on number 5, which was Casey.
She took her time surveying the 5 mystery presents left, and finally decided on the small box with a pink bow. Opening it up, all that was inside was a piece of paper with 2 sets of usernames and passwords written on it. Turning it around, there was a note, which she read out loud.
"Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal! Whether you're with someone this year, or just hanging out with your right hand, here's a little something to get you 'in the mood.' A 3 month pass to Brazzers and WebYoung. You're welcome (;"
Casey didn't even have time to react before Johnny stole the gift from Casey, and then Tim stole the gift from Johnny, with Trevor taking the last steal of the round and taking the gift.
"What the fuck just happened?" Casey laughed.
"Porn," Amanda scoffed before laughing.
Elliot came out of the bathroom finally, with Olivia nearly spitting out her drink as she threw her head back and grabbed her sides, laughing at how ridiculous Elliot looked. He sat his hands on his hips proudly, showing off the now filled out reindeer nose.
"Well? What do we think?" Elliot wiggled his eyebrows awaiting everyone's response. Alex covered her mouth as her eyes were wide, unable to avert her eyes from Elliot. Olivia was in tears, cackling at her best friend and how ridiculous he looked. Kathy buried her face in her hands, blushing at the sight of her boyfriend. Amanda and Casey were chuckling as Johnny, Tim, and Trevor cat-called Elliot.
"Looks good, huh?" Elliot wiggled his hips a little bit to get the reindeer to move, causing Olivia to lose it more than she already was. Kathy squealed as she got up, pushing Elliot back into the bathroom to change.
"Oh my God…" Alex murmured. "That's the closest I've ever been to seeing dick."
Olivia fell over on the floor, clutching her sides as tears freely fell from her eyes.
"I fucking love you, Elliot!" Olivia yelled before finally trying to compose herself.
Soon, Elliot came back out and sat down, awaiting the next round.
"So, who went? What did I miss?"
"I apparently opened porn, but I didn't even get to enjoy my present before it was taken away!" Casey said.
"Ooh, what kinda porn?" Elliot asked, Kathy smacking his arm.
"A 3 month pass to Brazzers and WebYoung, whatever those are," Casey answered with a shrug.
"Brazzers?!" Elliot exclaimed. "Fuck! I need that gift."
Olivia smirked as she tried to stop any more laughter from spilling out.
"Wait, who the hell was generous enough for that?"
"Santa," Olivia said, obviously telling on herself. Alex looked over at her with an eyebrow raised.
"Santa, huh?" Elliot said. "But what the hell is WebYoung? Sounds a little… illegal."
"Yeah, I don't know that one either," Johnny and Tim admitted.
Trevor looked over the note and shrugged. "Beats me."
"So, tell us then, Santa," Elliot teased, clearly talking to Olivia. "What the hell is the other one?"
Olivia shrugged, pursing her lips. "Wouldn't know."
"Liar," Elliot grumbled.
"You really wanna know?"
The guys were all staring at her like vultures waiting for a field mouse.
"Lesbian porn, fellas. Some good old-fashioned girl on girl action."
Alex shot her eyes back to Olivia, who was laughing evilly after the admission. "You pay for porn?"
Olivia shrugged, still wearing an evil grin. "It's the only way to get the good shit. Thought I'd be nice and share. But I'm changing the passwords in 3 months, so I'm serious about the timeline!"
Johnny groaned. "I shouldn't have stolen it first. Now I can't steal it back!"
"I can just share it with you bro," Trevor said, giving him a fist bump.
"Hey now, this was mine first. You're sharing with me, too!" Casey said, taking the paper back from her boyfriend.
"Liv, you should've just given that to everyone as a universal gift," Elliot said, wiggling his eyebrows, silently pleading for the password.
"Alright, perverts! This was supposed to be shared with one person; the victor of the gift. It defeats the purpose if you all have access! Plus, you're gonna screw up my recommended videos. And please, for the love of God, don't mess with my preferences," Olivia pleaded. "I really don't need to see a slew of 'Step-sister' videos every time I wanna get frisky."
The guys laughed, with Alex still intently watching Olivia; devious thoughts swimming in her head.
"I promise, I won't mess it up," Trevor said. "This is a dope ass gift."
"Okay, boys," Kathy hissed. "Enough drooling. Next person up!"
Soon, the final round of the gift exchange was complete. Elliot waited until the very last round to steal the porn passwords, so no one else could take it. He held it up in victory before climbing over Kathy and Alex to grab Olivia and kiss her on the cheek. "I knew you were my best friend, Liv. You're fucking awesome for this."
Olivia rolled her eyes and laughed, wrapping her arm around Alex. "You're welcome, El. Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas indeed!"
"So how does that show up on your bank card?" Tim asked. "Is it discreet? How much is it?"
"It's discreet. Brazzers is $30 a month, though," Olivia admitted.
"$30?!" Alex asked, shocked. "Jesus Christ, Liv!"
"Holy fuck, that's insane," Johnny said.
Olivia shrugged. "It's worth it in my opinion."
"Does your mom ever ask?" Tim asked.
Olivia laughed. "Hell no. She's not on any of my shit."
"$30, though?" Casey asked. "That sounds like robbery! Isn't a lot of porn free?"
"Yeah, but only the sex parts. I like the build up and the corny ass role-plays. Honestly, Brazzers is more for my entertainment than it is getting off. I got other things for that," Olivia said, placing a hand on Alex's thigh and squeezing.
"Then why pay for it?" Johnny asked. "You're crazy, Olivia. If I paid that I'd be yanking my shit daily."
Olivia sighed. "Okay, it's not like I've been subscribed to this for years. I signed up over the summer. Cut me some slack! There weren't a lot of chicks on campus then. I had to do something in my free time!"
Alex couldn't help but think of Olivia masturbating as she watched porn. And it was turning her on. She carefully squeezed her thighs together, with no one noticing but Olivia, whose hand was still on Alex's thigh. Smirking to herself, she pulled out her phone to text Alex something so no one had to listen to her question out loud.
Olivia: what u thinking bout?
Alex: lol nothin
Olivia: liar. u horny?
Alex: maybe…
Olivia: lol u dirty girl (; why?
Alex: thinking of u touching urself to porn. Idk it made me hot and bothered lol
Olivia: hmm. then we should watch some together one time (;
Alex: really?
Olivia: mhmm. maybe watch some porn in my bed while my hand is in ur pants and yours is in mine? (;
Alex swallowed hard as she squeezed her thighs together again, holding them for a second before relaxing.
Alex: fuck… plz, that's so hot!
Alex shoved her phone back in her pocket, returning to the group's conversation before grabbing Olivia's hand tightly in hers.
Sunday, December 22, 2013
Alex had spent the weekend with Olivia, soaking up every moment with her she could before her parents were due to come tomorrow and take her back for the break.
Waking up on Sunday morning, Alex wrapped her arms around Olivia, staring up at her while her girlfriend was staring at the ceiling, playing with the blanket.
"What's wrong?" Alex asked, knowing something was bothering Olivia.
Olivia opened and closed her mouth a few times before sighing. "Alex… I forgot to tell you something."
Nervous, Alex propped herself up and looked in Olivia's eyes, which were refusing to meet hers. She couldn't help the worry that was spreading throughout her, making her skin prickle and her heart beat faster than normal.
"What, Liv?"
"I… am going to go see my mom today."
"Oh," Alex said, slightly relieved it wasn't some big secret. "Want me to come with you?"
Olivia laughed. "Why? So my mom can give you 100 reasons to leave me? No way, Alex. She's the worst. She'll make you hate me. Or she'll just simply drive you away. Not happening."
"Olivia…" Alex said softly, wrapping her fingers around Olivia's. "I can not be driven away. I love you. I know you. No way some woman I've never met is going to push me away from you. You're an amazing person! And from what little I've heard, she's the terrible person. Please, let me come with you? At least for support."
Olivia chewed on her lip for quite some time. She really didn't want to be alone with her mother, but she couldn't ask Alex to come with her, could she? The woman was reprehensible. She was afraid of what her mother would say or do. On the other hand, Olivia believed she was too weak; there was no way she could face her mother alone.
Sighing, Olivia finally responded. "Fine. But the second she starts making you feel different about me, we're leaving. I'm not putting up with it."
Alex nodded, holding Olivia tightly in her arms.
"What time?"
"2:00."
It was already 11:00am. Olivia groaned as she got out of bed, and made her way to the bathroom for a shower.
