Piper did sleep well that night. Having set her alarm for 7 she was up refreshed and eager to get going so she could get her parental obligations over and go see Alex. Showering quickly she pulled out the sensible skirt and blouse she knew her mother would approve of, piled her hair into a tight bun on the back of her head and applied neutral make-up. Staring at her reflection she saw the woman she had been until a few months ago. A pleasant looking, non threatening, non de-script woman. She smiled. This was not who she was. Looking at herself now she knew these last few months had changed her, given her a much clearer idea of who she truly was.
These clothes represented her mothers hopes and dreams not her own, Piper knew she was more than that. Thanks to Alex she was now not afraid to be that person. Today she would play the game though. She would go make nice, be the dutiful daughter, keep the peace. But she also knew this would be the last time, from now on she wanted her parents to accept she was not some little kid they could dress, they could not choose her friends or partners and they would not have the power over her she had given them until now.
As she made her way to breakfast Piper was surprised to see the dining room nearly empty. Happy she would be able to eat in peace, without having to make polite conversation, Piper fetched some coffee and oatmeal then sat at a table by the window. Glancing at her watch she knew she had half an hour before the car came to collect her. Assuming the journey was as incident free as the ride there she would be at her parents in time for the meal if not for pre dinner drinks. Piper contemplated calling her mom to give her her ETA. Deciding against it, Piper continued to gaze out of the window. Letting her mind wander Piper missed Boo enter and sneak up behind her, it was only as she grabbed her shoulder from behind did Piper jump, squealing in shock.
"Jesus Boo! You trying to give me a heart attack!"
"No way blondie, just thought id come wave you off. Your partner it seems is not a morning person."
Piper shrugged, "What time did you get in last night?"
"This morning you mean," Boo laughed, "about 2, so not late."
"Maybe for you, but Polly is pregnant remember, please tell me you weren't too wild."
Boo shrugged, "we went to a few bars, sung some karaoke. It was fun."
"Did Polly think it was fun?"
"Well maybe not when I was serenading her on stage, she seemed to be embarrassed by that." Boo laughed. "But once she lost a few of her inhibitions and joined in, yeah, she had fun."
"Polly sang?" Piper grinned "oh I wish I'd seen that."
"Well your loss blondie it was your decision to go whisper sweet nothings all night. How is lurch by the way. She mention me?"
"Yes she mentioned you? She asked if you were behaving!"
Boo grinned, "She should not need to ask that! So tell me Piper, how did you find the launch yesterday? You looking forward to London?"
"Oh so much!" Piper grinned excitedly. "I mean initially I was excited just to be going to London, but now, after yesterday I have so many ideas, things I want to get right before out launch. I have a meeting Monday with Barneys to run my ideas past them."
"Really?" Boo nodded, "good. Can I be in on this meeting?"
Piper looked a little surprised, "sure if you want."
"Of course I want Piper, it is me who is fronting this after all."
"Should I have come to you first?" Piper asked suddenly fearing she had insulted Boo by going to Alex.
Boo shrugged, "No its understandable you go to them first, but just keep in touch OK, especially if you plan making changes."
Nodding Piper glanced at her watch. "I need to go, my car will be here soon. Will you say goodbye to Polly for me. And make sure you look after her!" Piper held out her hand to shake Boo's and was surprised when Boo stood and pulled Piper into a tight hug.
"Safe journey blondie, see you soon."
O0o
"Mom I made it clear, you try to set me up I am not staying." Piper frowned at the voices she could hear coming form the drawing room.
"Oh do calm down Piper, being melodramatic doesn't suit you dear. I am not 'setting you up'."
"So who is it in there? cos it sure as hell isn't just dad."
"First, watch your mouth young lady!" Carole frowned. "Second, I invited Polly's mom and dad. It seems you neglected to tell me Polly's good news."
Piper stifled the groan she felt building. "OK. Sorry." She acknowledged before saying "Can I get a drink?"
Shaking her head Carole led the way into the sitting room and following Piper was greeted by a chorus of hellos as Polly's mom moved to hug her.
"Polly not with you?" she looked past Piper disappointed.
"I'm sorry," Piper smiled, "I hadn't been told you would be here, Polly is still in new haven, I came back early as I had promised mom before the business thing came up. So Polly stayed on to network., sorry."
"Its OK dear. I know she was excited about the trip. And London too! Have you got a date?"
Piper grinned, "probably 2 weeks, 3 at the latest."
"You are going to London?" Carole looked at Piper sternly.
"Yeah. I told you a hotel chain was interested in our stuff. Well they want to launch us in London."
"That's good news Piper." Her dad spoke for the first time. "Would have been nice to hear it from you though."
Piper rolled her eyes. "I told mom about the hotel chain. She knew that yesterdays business meeting was connected, that's why it was important. Luckily Polly could stay on today."
"So you are blaming us for you having to leave?"
Piper sighed, "No not blaming you, but lets be honest mom you were not interested when I tried to explain why today may be hard for me."
Carole ignored Pipers jibe and looked at Mrs Harper. "So Miranda, your daughter obviously tells you what is going on in her life. You must be thrilled about the baby."
Miranda Harper smiled "I am. Although I am not sure Polly is ready for what is about to happen to her body or her life. Kids never appreciate what their parents have been through do they!"
Piper sat back as Carole and Miranda began to moan about how hard being a parent was. Her dad sat tapping away on his phone, presumably to his latest mistress and Piper sneaked a look at her watch.
"Mom, what time are we eating? I'm starving, she added "all I ate was canapés yesterday."
Knowing her mother would react she hid her smile as Carole jumped up and went to the kitchen.
"5 minutes." she said on her return. She looked at Piper, "you need to eat properly Piper. Just because you are working now doesn't mean you neglect yourself. And living alone doesn't mean processed food either."
Nodding and agreeing with her mother, Piper hoped an early meal would mean an early escape. Mr Harper was now sat with her own father both silent.
"I'm just going to wash up." Piper excused herself and made her way to the upstairs bathroom.
Pulling out her phone she sent Alex a text letting her know dinner was nearly ready so she should be free in a couple of hours, Piper then gave her a quick humorous run-down on the conversation so far.
Alex replied promptly with an unexpected picture message of herself on Pipers bed surrounded it seemed by Pipers underwear.
Laughing Piper enquired as to what she thought she was doing, and Alex responded that she took her responsibility choosing clothes for Piper to wear tomorrow very seriously, so she was going over her options.
"Just make sure whatever you choose has a full compliment of buttons!" Piper replied knowing she could arrive at Alex's to find a short skirt and the top Alex seemed so fond of.
"Spoil sport." Was Alex's response.
Closing her phone Piper returned to find the others heading into the dining room. The meal was pleasant. As always the many courses were long and drawn out, but the food was amazing and conversation flowed. Piper was relieved in fact Polly's mom and dad were there. Miranda was so busy singing the praises of PoPi that Carole felt obliged to agree. When, as the dishes were cleared away, Piper mentioned she would need to leave soon, the mood changed swiftly.
"Piper we haven't seen you in ages, you swoop in eat and leave." Carole huffed.
"I'm sorry mom. But I had to give the service a time to come back for me as they have my luggage and I don't have my car."
"How will Polly get home?" Miranda asked curiously, "she will be driven too?"
"Yes her and Boo will come back together."
"Boo? Who is Boo? Doesn't sound very professional." Carole sneered.
"Boo, Carrie Black, is the person who is overseeing the launch mom, she arranged this weekend for us and has been great. She stayed on to introduce Polly to some more people and she will be at the meeting tomorrow to finalise the details. So you see while I am able to be here I need to get home to prepare also."
"What is this hotel in London? Have we stayed there? Is it a good one?" Piper was surprised was showing any interest at all, so turning to him she gave him the name of the hotel and the details she had gathered so far.
"That's quite impressive Piper." he nodded. "Its good to see you are finally making something of yourself." Piper just nodded. Suddenly feeling drained she took another sip of wine and checked her watch thankful Alex would be there shortly. It amazed her how a few hours in the company of her parents could always leave her feeling both exhausted and feeling like a 12 year old kid again. Her phone buzzing drew her back to the present though and she smiled in relief at the message.
Outside whenever you are ready Pipes. xx
"My ride is here." Piper smiled. "Thanks for a lovely dinner mom, I will call you before I go to London.
Mrs Harper, Mr Harper a pleasure to see you again." Piper hugged her mom then her dad and made her way gratefully to the door. She was surprised her mom followed and opening the door had to bite back the burst of laughter as she saw Alex, in full chauffeur uniform, leaning casually against her smart black vehicle.
"OK bye." Piper got out as she made her way hastily to the car before her mother recognised Alex. Alex, cap pulled low over her face, moved quickly to open the door for her turning and winking as she let Piper in. As the car pulled away Piper let the laughter she had been holding in burst out. "Oh my god Al, I thought you were joking about the costume."
"Costume? The cheek!" Alex laughed, "uniform is the word you are looking for Piper. I will have you know I earned this uniform the hard way, driving the rich snotty preppy kids, very much like your good self I'm guessing, to their proms and functions."
Piper grinned. "I bet you looked as cute then as you do now."
"Cute?" Alex raised an eyebrow, "I was going for sexy."
"You don't need to try for sexy and you know it!" Piper grinned. "But I think I like the biker leathers better."
"Typical rich kid!" Alex snorted "always after a bit of rough!" She chuckled at Pipers shocked expression and pulled the car to a stop, "OK we are clear of the danger zone, get you preppy ass here next to me Pipes, I need a hug and a kiss and to maybe to unbutton a few of those starched blouse buttons you have going on there."
Not needing to be asked twice Piper got out and climbed into the front of the car. Alex pulled her close kissing her softly. "I missed you." She said quietly, her expression no longer teasing but serious.
"I missed you too." Piper smiled. "As fun as it is to text and Skype I realised how much I like touching you."
Alex smiled, "me too kid. Lets go home."
o0o
"OK," Alex turned as soon as Piper was through the front door half an hour later, "you can tell me more about the weekend soon Pipes but right now I need to kiss you." Alex smiled as Piper was already moving closer. As their lips touched Alex groaned. Hands moving to Pipers head she thrust her tongue in her mouth and began pulling pins from her hair. Pulling back she rested her forehead on Pipers. "As sexy as you look whatever you are wearing Piper, I must admit this prim and proper look has to go." She smiled as she saw Piper hair tumble down and reached for the buttons of the blouse flicking them casually and smirking as Piper gasped at how quickly her blouse fell open.
"Not my first time!" Alex winked, Piper laughed and stepped back into Alex's arms. The kiss was softer this time, gentle touches as Piper tried to move even closer suddenly feeling like she n ever wanted to leave Alex's side again.
She pulled back shocked at herself and leaving the blouse unfastened she smiled at Alex, "You are my hero rescuing me from my parents!"
"Glad to be of service. Now what about a drink, you can fill me in on the trip then maybe we can go relax upstairs?" Alex smiled then winked.
Piper grinned. "Drink, yes definitely! The trip, it was cool, lots of people lots of ideas but we can talk about that tomorrow. Relaxing? Upstairs? What are we waiting for I believe I was promised another go in that bath and shower of yours."
Alex laughed at Pipers obvious enthusiasm. Grabbing some wine glasses and a bottle she said "you got it kid lets go."
Piper followed Alex upstairs and was happy to see her bags already in Alex's room. She was half tempted to ask what clothes Alex had settled on, but seeing Alex was already moving to go up to the bathroom Piper held the question, eager not to miss a second in Alex's company. As Alex started to run the bath Piper let the blouse that was hanging loose fall to the floor, then unfastened her skirt kicked it off, placing both items in the corner of the room. As Alex turned and saw Piper already in her underwear she smirked.
"Keen?" She queried eyebrow quirked in the now familiar angle that had Pipers stomach fluttering.
"A little." she admitted. "In fact it was only the thought of this, being here with you that got me through lunch."
"So you were sat in your parents house, all pinned up tight, imagining getting naked here with me?" Alex laughed.
"Well not the naked part, that would have distracted me far too much, and I cant afford to relax for a minute when I am there, but certainly the being here alone with you."
"So now we are here, and you can relax," Alex smiled handing Piper a glass of wine, "how about we talk about that little fantasy of yours." She moved closer wrapping one arm around Pipers bare waist pulling her into her body.
Piper took a sip of the wine and smiled shyly. She had actually given this moment a lot more thought than she had let on to Alex, having spent half the previous night replaying Alex's words and thinking about what they may possibly do together. Looking at Alex who was watching her closely Piper said softly "I want to make you feel good." She started slowly. "In the shower at my place you made me feel so wonderful and I want to do that to you, you have made me feel things no-one else has Alex. I want to learn what yo like too."
Alex was a little surprised at Pipers words, letting her fingers stroke the bare skin at Pipers waist she leant closer and gently kissed Pipers cheek. "Pipes you can do whatever you want. We can do whatever you want. My body loves every touch you give it and right now anything you want to do with me or better yet too me will be more than welcome."
Reassured Piper smiled and suggested, "maybe you need to loose some clothes too then, right now I feel under-dressed."
"Oh no Pipes, you are not under dressed you are perfect." She traced a finger over the lacy cup of Pipers bra. "I love that you were wearing such sexy underwear under that prim outfit."
Piper grinned, "this layer was for you!" she admitted.
"So when you say you want to do to me what we did in the shower, you mean in the actual shower, like we go down there?"
Piper nodded. "Don't get me wrong I want to do stuff here too but, damn it Alex your shower is huge and I just want to do that again."
Alex took the glass from Pipers hand and placing it down, turning off the flowing water she grabbed Piper and dragged her to the door. Once in the en-suite Alex wasted no time shedding her clothes and divesting Piper of her remaining underwear. She reached in to adjust the water temperature and turning she grinned at Piper.
"OK Pipes, your game, you get to choose the scent." She nodded to the array of bottles lined on the self piper smiled.
"I am going to go for the coffee." she picked it up, "this baby won me a $100 and it is what I fantasised you smelling off for quite a while."
"Is that right?" Alex smirked, "so you fantasised about me… hmm, interesting."
"Yeah," Piper agreed stepping forward so Alex backed up into the shower and under the spray, "it was fine for a while but this is much more fun!" She smiled as she watched Alex throw her head back wetting her hair under the water and push it off her face. Piper became transfixed with the water running off Alex long hair and dripping down her breasts, forgetting for a moment she had intended to wash Alex, she leant froward and let her tongue lick and catch the falling water, moaning at the feel of Alex finally on her tongue.
"Mmmm!" she suckled gently before standing straight and grinning. "I love your breasts!" Piper gave them a gentle squeeze as she rubbed her now soapy hands across them. Alex stood quietly letting Piper wash her; she studied the blonde woman's face as she made her way gently down her body, noticing Piper taking in every detail, sometimes leaning froward to place a soft kiss on her skin. By the time Piper said a quiet "turn round." Alex knew her own levels of arousal were climbing high just from watching Piper take so much pleasure in her task.
Now facing the wall Alex closed her eyes and concentrated on the sensation Pipers soft hands were causing.
Alex was used to hard, fast, rough sex. Noisy, screaming, drunken sex, with nameless strangers. What Piper was doing, making her feel, was almost as new to her as it was to Piper. Alex let out a quiet moan as she felt Pipers hands rub her ass. Pushing into the touch she felt Piper move closer and sighed in relief when she felt Pipers lips touch her neck.
Alex turned into the touch, pulling Piper into her body, feeling Piper thread her fingers into her hair as their lips met this time hungrily. The kiss lasted several minutes until Piper pulled back grinning,
"Stop trying to distract me!" she laughed delighted to see how Alex eyes were almost emerald green with desire. Alex nodded seriously determined to let Piper do this her way and reluctantly removing her hands she stood still waiting to see Pipers next move. For her own part Piper was determined not to rush this. She had Alex before her, naked, and willing to let her do whatever she desired. Glancing quickly at the space she nodded at the low stone shelf that Alex kept her bath products on.
"Sit down!" Piper grinned and was amused to see Alex's eyes widen a fraction as she guessed Pipers intention. Shoving the bottles out of her way Alex sat down and found her self now at eye level with Pipers breast and stomach. Reaching out she pulled her close and began sucking the pink nipples into her mouth making Piper groan immediately and almost loose focus once more.
"Uh uh! my game remember!" she grinned then kneeling down she said "but it felt nice, look." And mimicking Alex's movement suckled gently on Alex's nipples feeling then harden even more on her tongue.
Alex leant her head back and closed her eyes, what Piper was doing to her felt so good. She wanted to ask her to go harder, faster; but she was determined to let Piper do this her way. Biting her lip to keep her thoughts in, Alex groaned as she felt Pipers finger slowly move towards her mound.
Piper had positioned herself on the floor so the water was not hitting her, she wanted to focus on Alex, and Alex's body, without distraction. As she let her fingers map the path her mouth followed she tried to memorise the sounds Alex was making and gauge what she enjoyed most. Glancing up from her position at Alex's feet, she felt a wave of desire rush through, her pooling between her legs at the sight of Alex head back breathing heavily. Her own fingers were now softly stroking Alex's clit. As she moved her gaze from Alex face to her own hand she groaned herself at what she saw. Alex was so aroused Piper could see her pulsing and unable to resist she lowered her head sucking the exposed bud into her mouth.
"Fuck … Pipes…!" Alex called out taken aback at the bold move unable to stop her hips thrusting up at the feeling.
Piper hummed in response making Alex groan more and Piper not wanting to move from her position used her fingers to stroke towards Alex entrance, slipping first one, then another finger slowly inside.
Alex unable to remain silent any longer groaned "Oh god Piper! please, harder!"
And Piper not wanting to disappoint thrust her fingers faster and harder into the woman who was now holding her head close, as if scared Piper would change her mind and pull back. The increase speed earned Piper another groan.
"So good Pipes." Alex admitted amazed herself how quickly Piper had brought her to this point where her level of arousal was close to bursting point.
Piper using her tongue to tease Alex's clit now too slowed the speed of her fingers long enough to add a third before pushing back hard just as Alex began to tremble and clench tightly around her, her orgasm building ever closer, as Piper continued to suck hard.
"Oh fuck, yes pipes, don't stop." Alex shouted her whole body shaking now as Piper continued.
When Piper felt Alex slump slightly, she eased up on the movement keeping her hand still and replaced the sucking with gentle kisses, before slowly pulling her fingers out and licking the trail of juices that followed them, savouring Alex's taste as she did so. Piper stayed on the floor kissing Alex gently for several minutes before raising her head to look up.
Opening her eyes Alex grinned at the woman still kneeling at her feet. "We need to get you out of the bedroom more often Pipes!" she grinned. "God baby that was amazing." Alex admitted.
Piper stood up slowly wincing a little at the ache in her knees. Alex noticing smiled. "Now I think I promised corruption in the bathroom and after how you just made me feel I have just the thing." She winked.
Not bothering to dry off the two women returned to the bathroom and Alex grabbed the glass she had taken from Piper earlier.
"Here," she smiled, "let me just sort the water out." She tested the water they had abandoned earlier and was relieved it was still warm. Adding some more Alex flick a few switches and Piper grinned as the lights dimmed to be replaced by what must have been pin light around the outside of the room and it seemed inside the bath too.
"Come here." Alex held out her hand and helped Piper climb into the water. "That's it, now shuffle forward a little." She instructed as she climbed in behind Piper, mimicking the position from their previous bath, and wrapped both her arms and legs around her. "This room is my favourite," she said quietly, her voice husky in Pipers ear. "Until you it was my secret, my hiding place but now I prefer it when I have you here with me like this."
"Its perfect!" Piper admitted. The feel of Alex surrounding her, her voice sending shivers down her spine and despite the wine the taste of her still on Pipers lips. Feeling suddenly brave Piper tipped her head back and admitted "Now I have tried sex in a room other than a bedroom I want to do more."
"More rooms?" Alex grinned
"yes more rooms, and maybe other places too." she admitted shyly.
Alex groaned. "Well Piper Chapman I can promise you any room any place you name I'm there. But the first place we are adding is this bathroom."
"We are?" Piper twisted her head to look at Alex, "Again? You are not tired?" She remembered how she had felt after Alex had made her cum like that in the shower and was a little surprised Alex didn't feel the same; immediately wondering if she had not performed as well as she had first thought. "I didn't do enough?"
Alex chuckled, "Oh believe me Pipes you did just fine, more than fine. What I have in mind now though is for you, in fact I wont need to do much at all." She grinned at Pipers confused look. "You trust me?" She asked already knowing Pipers answer.
"Of course I do." Piper replied without hesitation.
"OK the you just lay back here and relax." Alex kissed Pipers cheek innocently and pulled her head back so it was nestled between her breasts.
Piper had no idea what Alex planned, but doing as she was told closed her eyes and tried to relax. She sensed rather than saw the lights dim further, and smiled when suddenly music began to play from speakers she assumed were hidden somewhere in the room.
"OK?" Alex asked. Piper could hear the smile in her voice and relaxed even more nodding. "Good girl." Alex smiled.
Next Piper felt bubbles gently surround her and curiously she lifted her head and looked down.
"I thought I said relax!" Alex laughed. Piper laid her head back once more and as she did so felt Alex move her hands to stroke her breasts. The stroking continued for several long minutes. Piper realising her level of relaxation was quickly being replaced by that of arousal. Eyes still close d she sensed the jets increase by the force of the bubbles washing over her and then she heard Alex's voice in her ear again. "OK Pipes, now just relax and keep your eyes shut OK."
Nodding Piper squeezed her eyes a little tighter holding her breath to see what Alex was going to do. She felt Alex move her legs so they now rested over each of Alex's own. She felt her fingers gently stroke then she gasped as suddenly Alex shifted both herself and Piper moving her so the jet of water that had been causing the bubbles hit her pussy with force.
Eyes springing open Piper looked down and was even more aroused at the sight of the water hitting her. She whimpered at the sight and felt Alex move one hand the pull on the nipple closest to it. Piper heard her own voice as if it was coming from someone else. Her eyes now closed she was breathing heavily and calling Alex's name. She wasn't sure what she was asking for, maybe just a release to the feeling that had suddenly erupted in her..
"That's it Pipes," came the sound of Alex's voice in her ear. "Just go with it, I got you."
Piper felt Alex move her a little closer to the jet and just as the feeling seemed to burst in her she felt Alex sink her teeth into her next making her scream out not from pain but ecstasy.
It felt like minutes but was she knew probably only seconds before she became more aware of her surroundings. The lights, still dim, cast a lilac haze around the room, the music soft and the bubbles now back to the gentle swirl of when she had first climbed in. Opening her eyes Piper turned to look up at Alex who was watching her grinning.
"Good?" She asked knowing full well the answer.
Piper merely nodded earning her another chuckle.
"Good!" Alex said satisfied Piper was happy. She reached for their abandoned glasses of wine and handed Piper hers, "here have some of this and when you are ready why don't we go get a snack and go to bed."
Piper gratefully took the glass more through thirst than any desire for alcohol. She was not sure she wanted food but the idea of snuggling in bed with Alex was far more appealing than any idea she had heard in a long time.
Eventually composed enough to move Piper stood and climbed out of the bath allowing Alex to do the same. She smiled when Alex handed her a bath robe before putting on an identical one herself. She saw Pipers expression and answered the question she saw in her eyes, "Yes I may have planed that." She grinned. "I mean you said you wanted new experiences, we have ticked of two new rooms and I figured you would maybe need cosy and comfort right about now so I bought a matching robe to mine in case I couldn't find yours, and I couldn't."
Piper smiled. "No, I don't actually own a robe. This though, she snuggled into the warm fabric, it is like a hug."
"Yes well it stays here." Alex grinned, "and you only get to use it when you are too sexually exhausted to move!"
Piper smiled. "You know I am too tired to even argue don't you."
Alex smirked. "Pretty much! Come on." She held Pipers hand and led her back down the stairs until they reached the living room. "You sit there. I will get you a drink and something to eat."
"I am really not hungry Alex." Piper protested but Alex shushed her and sat her on the sofa. When she returned several minutes later she saw Piper was nearly asleep.
"Here Pipes drink this." She pushed a glass of juice into Pipers hand watching to make sure she drank then placed a plate of cheese, crackers and fruit in front of piper. "Try to eat a little." she prompted before settling herself down on the cushion next to Piper and reaching for a few grapes. Placing two in her mouth she offered the third to Piper and was surprised when Piper not only accepted it but sucked Alex's finger into her mouth too.
"Oh no," Alex shook her head, "none of that. We are just eating and then going to bed." she admonished, seeing Piper look at her in a way she was beginning to recognise as desire building in the younger woman. She shoved some cheese at her and grinned, "I am beginning to think I have created a monster!"
Piper laughed. "Its hardly my fault you are showing me not only how good you are in the bedroom but in every other room too." She pointed out logically, "I mean I am now sat here thinking about how it would be to have sex here, or in the kitchen, or even on the stairs."
Alex laughed loudly. "Yep, a monster!" she pulled Piper into a hug. Feeding Piper some more food she skilfully changed the subject, and the train of thought Piper had been focused on, by asking Piper about her meeting agenda. Soon the talk was once more easy and lazy with Piper curled into Alex's side eyes closed as she listened to Alex tell her a little of the places she would see in London.
"I wish you were coming." Piper admitted sleepily. Then sitting straighter she grinned. "I could add a foreign country to my list of places." She laughed.
"Oh no missy," Alex shook her head. "I am not having you roam Europe ticking off countries like some sexual explorer. In fact I am making sure to check your luggage before you leave, maybe even pack for you myself, I am suddenly seeing a lot of sense in the way Carole has been dressing you for years!"
Sighing happily Piper murmured "As long as we get to explore Europe together one day I'm good." As the words left her mouth Piper knew she was admitting to wanting a long term relationship with Alex, but right this minute it felt the right thing to admit.
She felt Alex pull her closer, kiss the top of her head as she whispered, "oh yes Pipes, we will, and when we do believe me I will make every fantasy you have come true!"

A/N: So leaving this chapter here but only because I wanted to get it up for Monday. I will continue it next chapter I promise.
