A/N: Putting this right up front rather than the end as it is a huge apology for taking so long to get this chapter up. It is only stage 1 of 'date night'. More to come I promise. Also feel i need to move this to 'M' rating.
I have really struggled this week so feel the need to explain. I will be writing and posting as often as I can but maybe not every few days as has been the case. I am so grateful for the lovely reviews, messages and dm's. Your understanding has been amazing. I just hope this doesn't disappoint. I had 6000 words typed by Wednesday. Thursday night I deleted them all and started again. I hope it was worth it and this chapter reads OK. A x
The next several days passed in a blur for Piper. A mixture of teasing texts with Alex trying to persuade her to wear her new blouse on Friday, and work demands as she prepared with Polly for Fridays meeting with the hotel chain. Now it was finally here Piper was more than a little excited. She had woken early, dressed in her new business skirt and blouse she had bought on a shopping spree with Polly, taking time over her hair and make-up. When she was ready she looked at the clothes she had hanging ready for her date. Her good mood and excitement meant she didn't hesitate to take the shirt Polly had forced her to buy, it also meant she packed a change of clothes in the hope Alex wanted her to stay as she had suggested last weekend. Deciding Alex's idea to drop the clothes at hers was wise, if only to stop the questions Polly would have if she saw an overnight bag, Piper sent Alex a text to see if she was still home.
Good morning! Alex replied, of course you should bring your bag. I am here ready and waiting! X
Piper grinned. Grabbing her bag she headed out of the door.
"Hey" Alex smiled making no move to take the bag from Piper she stepped back to let her in.
"You aren't in a rush?" Piper asked surprised.
"No." Alex grinned, "come into the kitchen."
Piper laughed when on entering the kitchen she saw take out coffee and pastries. "You have been up and out early!"
"Yes well I was going to leave it half an hour before I messaged you. I may sleep in at the weekend but I am up at 5.30 in the week, I didn't think you would appreciate a call then though. Also remembering how much stock you put in breakfast I thought it was the least I could do."
Piper looked horrified at the thought of such an early start. "No you are right I wouldn't have appreciated a call then!" She answered without hesitation.
"So you looking forward to tonight?" Alex asked curiously. She had expected Piper to be nervous.
"Yeah, but I am focusing on the meeting first." Piper answered honestly. "Until I sign something I am not sure I will believe it is happening."
"Oh its happening Pipes," Alex grinned. "Does that mean after the meeting you will think about tonight and panic?"
"No, should I?" Piper laughed a challenge in her voice.
"No." Alex smiled. "You still up for movie and a burger? We can do The Plaza, or a candlelit dinner for 2 somewhere quiet?"
"No, movies and a burger is perfect, but lets see how cold it is before we decide on star gazing." Piper stated.
"Why?"
"Because I haven't packed a jacket or sweater."
"What have you packed?" Alex asked eyes gleaming at the unspoken hint Piper had given her.
"You will have to wait see," Piper laughed, "and no peaking when I have gone!"
"Hmm, OK. But do I get a kiss on account?" Alex moved closer to Piper still grinning.
"Oh no." Piper shook her head. "Business first, fun later." She grabbed the coffee cup, "I'm going to take this with me so I can avoid temptation." she admitted letting Alex know it was not a rejection.
"OK Pipes, I will let you off this once but be warned, seeing you all smart, professional and un-rumpled makes me want to smudge that lipstick un-tuck that pristine blouse and shake that professional air right out of you." She winked then grinned at pipers flustered expression satisfied she was at least leaving Piper with the thought of what lay ahead. She took Pipers hand and lead her to the door. "I'll see you later piper Chapman, but then you are mine for then weekend!"
As Piper drove away from Alex's towards the unit she felt her belly tremble with excitement, the feelings Alex stirred in her bubbling under the surface all morning until she saw her again that afternoon.

"Piper Chapman, Polly Harper, can I introduce you to Carrie Black. Carrie is the head of overseas product placement." Alex smiled as she watched Polly and Piper shake hands with the medium height woman with severely cropped black hair and tattoos proudly on display under the sleeves of her rolled back business blouse, then look nervously at Alex for guidance.
"OK ladies down to business." Alex grinned. "Carrie, we haven't exactly given the ladies here too many details of your proposal, would you care to fill them in?"
"Sure thing hot stuff," Carrie grinned causing Piper to gasp and Polly to stare in awe at the butch woman before them, while Alex merely grinned, winked and sat back.
"OK," she turned to Polly and Piper and said "basically we love your shit! I mean really love it. Now as the boss lady here says we want to stock some of our European hotels, we will only take one scent in the first instance and we are ignoring any pleas, blackmail or bribes from Barneys staff to stock the range I believe you designed around them." Carrie glanced at Nicky, who Piper noticed for the first time as she was being uncharacteristically quiet. "Now the packaging design is fine but we would like to change it for our order if that is OK? Also we would like to arrange for a promotion, a linked promotion with Barneys as a store, and in the first instance in the UK, London to be precise. Just one featured hotel, central location. As Barneys trades on its New York location we figured teaming with the City of London seemed the obvious place to start. We have a chain of hotels, all though are very individual boutique hotels, in various cities across Europe. Our plan therefore ladies is for each 'roll out' to feature a city link and promotion. We will require your presence at each launch and at these launches a gift pack will be made and presented to our chosen guests, probably about 50 at each launch. Now as we will launch one city, one hotel at a time that requirement should be manageable, but we will need to discuss orders for future stock. I have figures here for you to look over. Alex has promised me a tour of the store here, so I will leave you for a while for you to go over the details."
Poly and Piper never uttered a word as everyone else in the room seemed to get up and leave. It was only as the door closed did Nicky who had been minuting the meeting finally speak. "That woman is an ass! How Alex puts up with her I don't know."
Polly, finally brought out of her shocked trance, spoke, "OK, this maybe politically incorrect! she acknowledged, !but how the hell has Alex managed to build a team around her, plus work with, only women half of whom are gay!?"
Nicky sniggered. "Its a talent! Boo is an old friend though, met at college or something."
"Boo?" Piper asked.
"Carrie. Alex calls her Boo. Sometimes she calls her 'Big Boo' if they have been drinking, then Carrie calls Alex 'Lurch'. But business wise they seem to trust each other and as much as I am not her biggest fan she does know her job."
"I take it the bribery jibe was aimed at you?" Polly grinned.
Nicky nodded. "It wasn't bribery," she muttered defensively, "we just made her a gift basket of the new stock. So 'Nicky' was on top," she shrugged. "Hardly a criminal or shaming offence."
Polly giggled. Piper until then had been quiet, reading the paper work Carrie had left. "Polly, I think we can do this." She said nervously. "These figures, they are more than manageable, less than we are making for Barneys, at least for now with just the one hotel we could fill the order ourselves."
Polly grabbed the paper and started to study the figures. Looking at Piper she grinned, "we would get to go to London too!"
Piper was grinning now. Looking at Nicky she said "How much can we push this? Could we ask for travel expenses?"
Nicky laughed, "you wont need to ask blondie, they would be guaranteed, plus accommodation. Their hotels are nice. More than nice. Only small but like the woman said boutique. You will have an amazing time!"
As Nicky finished speaking the door opened and Alex reappeared with Carrie. "All OK?" She asked looking towards Piper and Polly. Piper grinned nodding.
"Oh, she looks happy!" Carrie said cheerfully. "Its not often I walk in a meeting room and see a smile."
"Maybe it wasn't for you." Nicky muttered returning to her previous seat glaring at Boo.
"Oh come on Nick. Its been years, surely you cant still hold a grudge? It was one night, lots of vodka and you just need to accept I won."
Alex was smirking, her head down. "OK," she tried to sound serious. "Piper, Polly? Any questions or problems?"
"No." Piper smiled. "It all looks great."
"I have a question." Polly said. "What did you win?" She asked Boo causing Alex to snigger and Nicky to throw Polly a look as if she was being betrayed.
Carrie grinned, "I don't want to embarrass Miss Nichols here, but you buy me a few vodkas in London and I may let her secrets out." she winked.
Piper could hear Nicky muttering but decided it would be best to move the conversation forward. She confirmed travel and accommodation would be covered, clarified the exact order and gift requirements then grinned at Alex. "I think it sounds perfect." she admitted.
"Excellent, then while you sign the contracts I will go get the champagne we have on ice to celebrate."
Everything seemed to move in a blur for Piper, one minute she was reading Carrie's requests, the next she was signing the contract, having a champagne flute thrust into her hand and her whole life changed.
"We did it Polly!" She looked at her friend tears in her eyes.
"I know." Polly looked as stunned as Piper felt. "I cant believe it." She sighed, "I know you have plans but I feel we should be going out, celebrating. Its what we planned, remember. In fact" she smiled almost sadly, "it was the first night we went to the bar, celebrating Larry's writing that article. You were complaining and we agreed we would go to a club to celebrate."
Piper smiled at the memory. "That seems like such a long time ago now." She nodded, "I was so miserable that night, so unhappy. I am not sure even I realised it. But its different now Pol, look at you, your going to be a parent, Pete is the one pushing to get married."
Polly grinned. "You are right. You do look happy Piper, and I'm happy too. It was my dream; but to know Pete wants it as much as I do, is as keen as I am. Look, you go have a fun weekend. But Monday I think we need to sit and have a proper business meeting, talk about the implications of today."
Hugging her friend Piper turned too see where Alex was. "Oh boy," she muttered "that doesn't look good." Polly turned to see what was going on and burst out laughing. Across the room both Carrie and Nicky appeared to be trying to persuade a very visibly reluctant Alex that now the champagne was finished the celebration needed to continue at the bar.
"Nicky knows our plans, what's she playing at?" piper hissed at Polly.
"Maybe you need to give a little on this one. Why don't we suggest going to the bar, I'll get Carrie and Nicky out while you explain to Alex the plan, then after one drink you two can slip off. You know what Nicky's like, if she has tequila in front of her she is happy, I have a feeling Carrie may be the same."
Agreeing Piper followed Polly to the increasingly loud discussion on the other side of the room.
"OK ladies, my partner and I would like to celebrate with you all, in fact the whole department" Piper smiled at Nicky, "so first round of drinks are on us at the bar." As Alex swivelled in shock to stare at Piper, mouth open as if to protest, Piper smiled and stood back to let Polly lead the way out of the door. She was relieved to see Nicky bustle past Carrie who was keen to follow. Placing a hand on Alex's arm Piper smiled, "it seemed like an intervention was needed, Polly cant drink, I don't want to drink, at least not at he bar, but we figured if we got them there, bought them tequila they would be less hostile to us leaving."
Alex visibly relaxed. "I thought you had changed your mind about tonight, wanted to celebrate the deal. I wouldn't blame you Pipes, its what you have worked for."
"Yes it is, but I had hoped my celebrations would be less public, with less people and involve less formal attire."
Alex grinned, "oh me too! Don't think I have forgotten your teasing me with hints of the clothes you left at mine this morning. I'm telling you Pipes that clothes bag had better contain a certain top and very few buttons."
Piper giggled, "So lets go get your assistant and that very scary looking contact of yours lots of tequila, then you can go home and find out."
Alex followed Piper out of the office, "oh Boo's not scary, in fact she is quite a softy. The tattoos and fierce hair hide a weakness for small furry creatures and slim young females." she smirked.
"I'm almost scared to ask." Piper admitted.
O0o
"Lurch, there is no way you are leaving me with this crazy haired lunatic." Carrie muttered as Alex stood to leave.
"Oh leave her be," Nicky shrugged, "I didn't think she'd come for one drink, so to get her to stay for two is a victory." Nicky acknowledged.
"Thanks Nick," Alex nodded, "but don't think I didn't notice your role in getting me here! So, that last round, I put it on your tab." Alex smirked as, with a wave at the protesting Nicky and laughing Boo, she pushed Piper in front of her towards the door.
"My car is in the parking garage at the office." she smiled as they got outside. "We could have dropped Polly home if she needed a ride."
"No its OK," Piper smiled, "she called Pete and he is going to collect her then they are going to go see Polly's mom for the weekend, break the baby news and plan the wedding."
Alex nodded. "I heard her asking Nicky to give Lorna her number, is she thinking of having the wedding the plaza?"
Piper shook her head, "No, but she wants to get some ideas from her I think. Pete wants the wedding in Australia but Polly's mom will go nuts, so Polly is trying to think of some sort of compromise."
Alex looked at Piper, "how do you feel about it?"
"About Polly getting married? Fine, why wouldn't I?"
"I just wondered if you were sad maybe, it could have been your wedding."
Piper sniggered, "Not sad, relieved maybe. I was saying to Polly earlier it was only as she reminded me how we spoke of celebrating if we got a deal with Barneys, that first night at the bar, how unhappy I was. I'm not unhappy now." She smiled at Alex. "Things are good."
Alex grinned, they had reached the car and climbing in she said "I hope we can find a better word than good this weekend Pipes, good is boring."
O0o
Arriving at Alex's, Piper grabbed the bag she had left that morning and made her way to the bedroom she had stayed in when she had been ill. Alex's room, she knew, was the other side of the house and had en-suite facilities. Pulling the clothes out of her bag she hung them on the back of the door, relieved they were not in need of ironing. She grabbed her toiletry bag and fresh underwear the clothes for the evening and made her way to the bathroom.
It was only when she was stood under the stream of hot water, washing away the events of the day did Piper think about where she was.
Alex was just down the hall. She too was probably in the shower. The thought made Piper a both excited and nervous. She had been looking forward to tonight all week, now it was here she let her mind think about what may lay in-store. She wanted to hold and kiss Alex, she also wanted more. She knew they had both been cautious until now but Piper felt there was an unspoken agreement that tonight their relationship would change.
Stepping out of the shower and drying off quickly Piper wrapped a towel around her hair and looked at her naked body in the mirror.
Would Alex be disappointed?
Piper had never been self conscious about her body, knowing men found her slim form attractive. Her breasts were small but, she acknowledged, perky, which she was suddenly very grateful for.
Did Alex prefer small or large breasts?
Realising she had no idea of Alex's previous girlfriends, or if she had a type, Piper cursed herself for not quizzing Nicky on such matters. Piper reached for the navy blue thong panties she had decided to wear, the lace trim detail at the side were pretty. Piper pulled them on and reached for the skirt she had bought with Polly. As the skirt was quite short, but also floaty rather than tight, it meant as she moved she felt the material swish against the lace and Piper felt sexy. She was still nervous about the shirt though. As she pulled it on over her naked breasts she realised in this instance her smaller boobs were probably an advantage.
It took several tries to knot the shirt in a fashion that looked natural and yet showed enough of her cleavage to hint at what lay beneath.
Turning to look at her reflection in the mirror Piper smiled, she unwrapped her hair and shook it out. She wanted to let it dry naturally so it had a slight curl. Grabbing her make-up bag Piper put on a light foundation and some pale pink lipstick. Tonight she wanted to feel natural, not heavily made up. Satisfied she gathered her towels, and cosmetics and returned to the bedroom were she had left her shoes. She knew they were only going to eat burgers and sit in a cinema but Piper couldn't resist adding heels tonight. Alex extra height meant a small heel would still give Alex the advantage but Piper knew it made her legs look longer and tonight Piper needed all the confidence boosts she could get. With one final scan in the mirror Piper took a deep breath and went in search of Alex.
O0o
"Hey," Piper said quietly as she entered the kitchen and saw Alex with her back to the doors.
As Alex spun round and got her first glimpse of her, Piper felt a thrill at the instant smile and obvious desire that flashed in the eyes of the dark haired woman before her.
"Hey yourself." Alex replied.
Piper was sure Alex voice was even huskier than normal.
Alex moved towards Piper and grinned, "You didn't do that top justice Pipes," her eyes sweeping Pipers body. "While that skirt is incredibly sexy, I will admit all I am thinking right now is we call out for pizza and stay here so I can see just how tightly you have done that knot."
Piper, blushed but was thrilled Alex was obvious pleased with her look.
She let her gaze sweep the woman before her, she was not surprised to see Alex's long legs wrapped in the now familiar black denim jeans, tonight she had a black vest top teamed with them, but Piper was thrilled to see the edge of what appeared to be a burgundy red bra strap. Sending her imagination into over drive Piper found herself moving closer to Alex too as if drawn to her.
Now inches apart Alex grinned, "We had better get out of here Pipes, because with you looking at me like that, and my desire only barely under control, if we don't go know it is not going to happen."
Piper half smiled at the words, but nodding turned and headed for the door. In the car she was surprised Alex turned the radio on loud and headed to the new drive-thru burger restaurant that had opened locally. On arriving Alex placed an order without asking Piper what she wanted, paid, then having passed the bag of food into the back of the car, secured the drinks in holder next to them she headed to wards the free-way.
"Er, I thought we were going to the movies?" Piper said a little uncertainly.
"We are Pipes, don't worry, but we need to eat the burgers. They are meant to be good. We hadn't spoken about which film to see but I heard the girls talking about this place and it suddenly seemed ideal. Trust me OK."
Piper nodded intrigued; Alex had obviously planned this so carefully while keeping to the brief, she had obviously wanted to make it special. As Alex pulled off the main road into what appeared to be a field Piper gasped grinning. "I've heard about this place." she admitted. She looked at Alex who was smiling "I didn't take you for a horror movie fan."
Alex chuckled. "I'm not really," she admitted, "and I had no idea if you were either, but I figured whether you were or not I couldn't loose."
Piper frowned "How do you figure that?"
"Because Pipes," Alex grinned having parked the car and turning to properly look at her companion, "if you are a fan of these old horror movies, great, perfect date.
If not then I am here to calm and protect you!" she laughed, holding her arms open as if offering a hug.
"Devious!" Piper laughed.
"Oh yes, never doubt it Pipes." Alex agreed reaching back for the food she handed Piper a burger and placed her fries in front so she could reach them. "Now I know I did not ask what you wanted, but I have it on good authority, these are 'the only burgers' to get. If we don't like them Nicky is fired Monday." she added with a smirk.
"Alex," Piper looked amused as she watched Alex happily eating her fires, "as much as this idea is fantastic, the devious plan of your ingenious although I should point out I don't scare easily, I will confess I'm a little confused."
Alex swallowed her mouthful and looked enquiringly at Piper. "Why?" She shrugged, "you wanted burgers, we have burgers. You wanted a movie, it will be on soon. I thought by coming here we could also gaze at the stars ticking that box too."
"Yes," Piper smirked. "Maybe I just had a different idea of what would happen during the movie," Piper grinned. "If I'm honest I thought maybe we would make out a little, you know, like before. Public place so cant go too wild, but enough." She shrugged.
Alex frowned "What makes you think that was not my plan Pipes? I mean it was exactly my plan."
Piper nodded, then shrugged, "Maybe its more the location I'm questioning then, I mean don't get me wrong your car is cool, but in a movie theatre I could be a whole lot closer, you know."
Alex stared at Piper, registering her words she looked at the car and muttered "Shit! Dammit Pipes, you are right. OK," she muttered "Eat up!" Pulling out her phone as she continued to eat Alex began typing furiously. A couple of minutes later she said "OK sorted."
"What is?"
"Once we are done eating we will go to the movie theatre in town. There is no way I am sitting through any film, I don't care what it is, without being able to touch you. So I have booked us into a slightly later viewing. Its a good job one of us is thinking straight." She grinned, "I think I lost all thought when you walked into the room in that skirt."
"Really," Piper laughed "and I thought it was the shirt you were interested in."
"Oh I am but I was half expecting that, those legs however I was not and the longer we sit here with all that flesh on display..." she reached over and ran her hand over Pipers knee letting it settle mid thigh.
"Alex," Piper said in a quiet voice "if you keep stroking my leg like that I am not sure I am going to be able to eat. It is very distracting."
Alex grinned, "It is? So if I did this," she moved her hand a fraction higher up Pipers leg and was amused to see Piper shift a little closer towards her in her seat, "you would find it off putting?" Piper closed her eyes at the sensations Alex's voice and hand were causing.
"Yes," she whispered.
"OK," Alex pulled back shifting as far away as possible. "No more distracting, eat!" She was happy to see Pipers look of disappointment, she winked, "Remember Pipes, once we are in that movie theatre and the lights are down I may not be so willing to keep my hands to myself."
Knowing she had made Piper think Alex decided to stop teasing and switching on the car stereo began searching for some music to break the sudden silence. Piper was surprised when she realised she had finished her food, "That was good." She grinned, "Nicky is safe."
"For this week anyway." Alex nodded. She grabbed Pipers rubbish and took it to the trash can nearby, getting back in and starting the car she said "ready?" Piper nodded.
"What is with Nicky and Carrie?" Piper asked curiously "and what is the bet Nicky lost."
Alex chuckled, "We had gone away on a conference one weekend, Rome I think, anyway Nicky had been taunting Boo all the way there how Rome was cool, how the butch approach and look Boo favoured would not go down well. So Boo challenged Nick to a competition to see who could hook up with the most women. Needless to say Nicky lost. It wasn't really fair," Alex continued to grin "as neither Nicky or I knew Rome so we let Boo choose the club. She chose one who favoured her look specifically so Nick never stood a chance, but Boo will not let her forget it."
Piper was laughing "Poor Nicky."
"Poor Nicky nothing. She'd have done exactly the same if she'd thought of it, Boo just got in quicker."
Having arrived at the movie theatre Piper was pleased when Alex grabbed her hand as they made their way to the entrance. "What are we watching?" She asked curiously.
"I haven't a clue." Alex grinned, "I just booked tickets for the theatre which looked emptiest, nice little dark corner!" She winked ad Piper felt the thrill of excitement flare in her belly. Tickets purchased as well as popcorn and soda they made there way to the theatre.
"You weren't kidding about it being empty." Piper grinned as she realised they were the only ones in. "What's the film?"
Alex looked at the tickets and snorted. "Its called Rams."
Piper frowned "never heard of it."
"Me either," Alex shrugged, settling herself down she handed Piper the popcorn. They watched the trailers commenting on films they liked the look of, actors and actresses they admired and films they had seen previously. As they munched on the popcorn and spoke, Piper realised she was seeing another side to Alex, this relaxed version was funny, teasing Pipers taste in movies, laughing out loud when Piper confessed to having a geeky side that had seen all the star wars films, then trying to capture her fingers each time they brushed reaching for the popcorn. Lights finally dimming Alex removed the box from Pipers lap,
"Hey I hadn't finished with that." Piper whispered,
"Yeah you had Pipes," Alex grinned. And before Piper had a chance to register her moving she found Alex's arm around her shoulder pulling her close and leaning her head on top of Pipers.
They quickly realised the film, about an Icelandic sheep farmer, was something neither of them had any interest in. "At least we know why the theatres empty." Piper grinned.
"Mmhhmm" Alex murmured. Her lack of response had Piper shifting to look at her. "Damn Piper, sit still!" Alex complained.
"What? You cant be telling me you are interested in this?"
"No, but I had a perfect view down your top and now you've moved and ruined it." Alex laughed.
Piper pulled back shocked. "Perv!" She muttered.
"You'd better believe it." Alex agreed happily. "And I have to tell you Pipes, your boobs are gorgeous!" She shifted a little so the arm that had been resting on Pipers shoulder now pulled Piper closer and her hand moved under Pipers arm so Alex finger could brush the side of Pipers breast.
Piper turned to Alex and saw Alex watching her, "I was worried you would think they were too small." she admitted shyly.
"They are perfect Pipes," Alex smiled, she moved her fingers slightly brushing against Piper watching her reaction. When she saw Piper catch her breath, her eyes darken with desire, she said "Are they sensitive?"
Piper nodded, biting her lip from groaning at the almost touch Alex had given her, wanting to beg for more.
Alex closed her eyes. She knew they were in public and she wanted so much to tease Piper. She sat for many minutes, her hand stroking Pipers arm, getting close to her breast before continuing to move down once more. She sensed Pipers attention was on her fingers not the film and knew from her breathing she was as affected by their touch as she was. Pipers hand, no longer occupied with popcorn, was on Alex's leg; clenched each time Alex finger brushed her boob. Moving her fingers again, this time a more deliberate touch, she let her hand cup Pipers breast first cupping, her finger flicking the now erect nipple before squeezing for a second then moving her arm back to its original position.
"Why did you stop?" Piper asked, her voice sounding breathless as she had been holding it waiting to see what Alex would do next.
Alex smiled "Because between my view and the feel of you, it is taking all my restraint not to rip that shirt open and see if you taste as good as you look!" she admitted.
"Oh god!" Piper shivered at the words but also the husky tome desire had added to Alex's voice.
Alex moved back into her own space but grabbed Pipers hand holding it tightly. She glanced around the movie theatre, at some point it appeared other people had entered, not many thankfully and she was grateful they were all seated in front of them.
"Pipes." she whispered,
Piper looked at Alex just as Alex lowered her head to kiss her. Piper knew the sound she heard had come from her, a sound of both desire and relief that finally she could touch the woman who had consumed her thoughts all week. The kiss started gently, slow gentle kisses teasing Pipers mouth until Piper could take it now more and moved her hands to hold Alex's head. Opening her mouth a little, she silently bagged Alex for more. Alex did not need any more encouragement. Tongue stroking Pipers lips then entering her mouth she teased and tormented the younger woman.
Movement in the seats in front caught Alex's attention and she pulled back, glancing to see what it was, only to frown at the late arrival of several people who were noisily settling themselves down. She looked at Piper who was breathing heavily. "You OK?" She whispered. Piper nodded.
"You sure?" Alex frowned concerned at t he lack of verbal confirmation. "Piper you need to talk to me." she prompted. "Is it too much?"
"God no!" Piper sighed, she was pleased the relative darkness of the theatre hid the red flush in her cheeks as she admitted in total honesty, "I'm just more than a little turned on here and suddenly aware we are not alone."
Alex smiled, "yeah one kiss and I feel the same. Your choice Pipes, we can watch the rest of this, whatever it is, or split and go home."
Piper didn't need asking twice, she simply stood up and making sure Alex was behind her made her way to the exit.
o0o
From the moment they left the movie theatre until reaching Alex's home, Piper kept a firm grip on Alex's hand. Even when she was driving Piper needed to touch her, releasing her hand to place it on Alex's leg or arm until her hand was free again. When they had stopped and the engine was off Piper pulled Alex close and kissed her. The need she had felt in the darkened theatre had not abated, if anything it had grown stronger. She had no recollection of the route Alex had driven as Pipers gaze had been firmly on the woman herself, studying her uninterrupted. Alex knew, Piper was sure, she didn't comment however other than the occasional squeeze of her fingers. Now lips touching again Piper felt the tension increase.
"We need to get inside Pipes," Alex whispered as she pulled back a little.
Reluctantly letting go Piper climbed out of the car. She waited for Alex to lock the vehicle and walk round to her side. As they entered the house Alex locked the door throwing the bolt causing Piper to look at her curiously.
"Nick has a key," she explained, "she doesn't use it often but there is no way I am risking it this weekend." Piper grinned.
"Come," Alex smiled "lets get a drink." Alex still holding Pipers hand led her to the kitchen, fetching them both a glass of red she said "its up to you pipes, we can sit in here, go into the lounge or upstairs'?" Alex wanted more than anything for Piper to be comfortable. She could see the younger woman was quite relaxed, she knew from Pipers comment in the cinema she was keen for this to continue, Alex just wanted it to be right for her.
"The lounge for a while." Piper smiled, taking another sip of her wine.
Alex led the way and picking up the TV remote switched it on, more for background noise than any intention to watch. Sitting with her back against the arm of the sofa Alex curled one long leg under herself then pulled Piper back against her so Pipers back was against her chest wrapping her arms around Pipers waist Alex buried her face in Pipers hair and inhaled.
"You know what Pipes, you smell incredible. Just breathing you in is intoxicating." she mumbled. She felt Piper drop her head back onto Alex's shoulder. Suddenly Pipers throat was there exposed to her and unable to resist Alex placed gentle kisses on the exposed flesh. Opening her eyes she chuckled.
"What?" Piper asked trying to straighten and turn but being stopped by Alex clamping her arms tightly around her.
"Oh no, no moving this time." Alex growled, "from here not only can I smell and taste you but the view is perfect too."
Looking down Piper realised the position Alex held her in had created a gap between her shirt and skin, exposing one small breast to Alex view. She felt rather than saw Alex blow gently onto her skin, but the immediate sensation caused the tremor in her body and her nipple to harden causing both Alex and Piper to moan. It was then Piper felt a slight loosening of Alex arms but she didn't pull away just sunk further back into Alex, letting her know she was happy exactly where she was. Seconds later the reason for Alex movements became clear when Piper felt her shirt fall completely open.
"Oh Pipes." Alex sighed. Her hands now stroking the smooth skin of Pipers stomach her chin resting on Pipers shoulder as they both looked down at Alex's hands caressing Piper. Alex let her hands wander over Pipers waist, then moved a little higher over her ribs. She felt Piper catch her breath in anticipation. "Not yet Pipes," she whispered into her ear, "patience."
Piper realised patience was the last thing she wanted to be practising right now and she groaned. She felt Alex's hands move back to her flat stomach tracing a pattern around her belly button before moving slowly and gently back up, this time gently stroking the underside of her breasts. The sensations felt like they were building in Piper and she turned her head towards Alex needing something more. Alex sensing Pipers need met her lips and kissed her passionately continuing the stroke her body.
Alex I want to see you too." Piper gasped feeling a desperate need to touch Alex as she was being touched.
"How about we move this somewhere more comfortable?" Alex suggested gently.
Nodding Piper moved to close her shirt but Alex stopped her.
"No don't." she smiled, "I like looking at you."
She saw Piper blush and grinned. "Now is not the time to go shy on me Pipes!" she smirked, "come on," She grabbed pipers wine glass, "have a sip for courage."
Piper laughed but took a sip all the same. As she entered Alex bedroom she stopped.
"Wow!" She grinned, realising she had not been in this room during her stay she was amazed at the shear size.
"My little haven." Alex nodded.
"Hardly little." Piper grinned. The room was white, pure white. Fitted cupboards with shiny white finish, white walls, even a plush white carpet. The bed however was not white. The only free standing object in the room it appeared to Piper larger than any bed she had seen. It was a 4 poster bed that was open to all sides with what looked like black silk hangings wrapped around the posts, also black, which stood in start contrast against what looked like a padded white leather headboard. Between the posts at one end it was the black frame and monochrome bed linen that captured the eye. There was a door to the side of the bed which Piper assumed led to the en suite she knew the room featured but Pipers eyes were unable to tear themselves from the bed.
Piper was almost unaware of Alex steering her towards the bed until Alex herself appeared in her line of vision as she sat on the side of the bed and pulled a still awestruck Piper between her legs.
"If I'd known it had this affect of you I'd have stayed downstairs." Alex grinned.
"Its beautiful Alex." Piper said seriously. "I mean the whole house is gorgeous but this room…"
Alex smiled, "like I say, its my haven. No TV, no phone, no outside influence. Tonight, just me and you."
Piper was about to question Alex further about the frequency of her need to escape when all questions were driven from her mind by Alex leaning forward and pacing a soft kiss between her breasts which were eye level with the seated Alex.
"Oh god!" Piper moaned her hands immediately falling onto Alex's shoulders for support. Alex had placed her hands on Pipers hips to hold her still as she kissed first up to her collar bone then down once more between her breast to her stomach. Piper couldn't move. She was stunned at the sensations Alex was conjuring in her and very aware of just how her body was reacting. She could feel how tight her nipples were without having to look down, and beneath her skirt she knew her thong was going to be of little use to contain the level of wetness she felt gathering.
"Alex please!" she moaned.
"Please what? What do you want Piper? Tell me." Alex was more than happy to let Piper lead this.
"You." Piper gasped "Touch me Alex, kiss me."
Alex grinned, she leant forward once more placing he mouth on Pipers stomach. "Here?" She whispered teasingly.
"Higher," Piper moaned, knowing Alex was teasing.
Alex placed butterfly kisses higher until her lips were touching the underside of Pipers breast.
"Mmm yes!" Piper gasped "oh god Alex!"
"What Piper?" Alex asked again.
"Suck me please!" Piper was pleading now the need to feel Alex mouth on her, sucking her, making speech hard. Alex placed a soft kiss on first one then the other nipple, pulling back as Piper tried to press forward, knowing what Piper wanted Alex repeated the process several times until Piper moved a hand of Alex's shoulder grasping her head and holding her still. "Please." She groaned and this time was rewarded with Alex frost tracing the taut nipple with her tongue, then sucking gently.
"Oh god yes!" Piper groaned in relief her fingers now wound in Alex hair.
Alex continued sucking, first one, then the other breast, enjoying the sound of Pipers voice moaning in her ear. She let her hands move now, certain Piper was not about to pull away. Slipping them down the back of Pipers legs then up under her skirt she was amazed to feel first the heat from Pipers flushed skin the a trail of wet which she knew meant Piper was more excited than even Alex had suspected. Unable to resist Alex continued working on Pipers boobs, but let on hand cup her ass as the other followed the trail until it met the very damp thong and Pipers now ultra sensitive pussy lips.
The touch of Alex fingers shocked Piper and she fell forward leaning her weight onto Alex shoulders as the first brush of Alex fingers had her crying out in pleasure. Letting her fingers explore gently, stroking the wet swollen lips, before circling the now very pronounced clit poking out from Pipers hood, Alex felt the flood of Pipers pleasure over her hand as her whole body shook, and was amazed just how quickly she had reached this point.
"Oh god!" Piper groaned and Alex wasn't sure this time if it was pleasure or embarrassment. She slowly removed both her hand and lips from Pipers body to look at her and saw Piper cover her tear stained face with her hands.
"Pipes, what's wrong?" she asked concerned.
Piper just shook her head and Alex realised it was embarrassment causing the reaction. Taking matters into her own hands Alex stood once more and gathered Piper into her arms kissed her tears away settling gentle reassuring kisses on her lips. "You Piper Chapman have to be the sweetest sexiest thing I have ever held." she smiled.
