Rated M for Sexual Content- so yay for all us adults :P
A/N Hey all. MUCH happier chapter for you all- honestly it felt kinda odd writing such a fluffy chapter after all we have been through over the last few. Hope you all enjoy this chapter- slight time jump so we can get progressing onto the next major event in the story. This is a slight filler chapter to help set up next chapter- which I really think you will enjoy.
Reviews:
Guest: Hopefully this chapter meets your expectations.
I3VauseMan: Aw thanks. I know- it was a hard chapter to write but I felt it was needed. Exactly, it makes things easier. All good, I completely understand- thanks so much for still taking the time to review even after such a heavy chapter. Just listened to it then- loved it. It was beautiful. *raises glass to your review and that song suggestion*.
….
It had been over a month since Piper and Alex had returned from their trip. A month filled with passionate lovemaking and generous support, as Piper attempted to move forward with her life after the emotions that her trip back to her childhood home had allowed to surface. To say that Alex had been amazing was a massive understatement, the brunette consciously making the effort to prove to Piper each and every day just how loved she was. Each day, Piper found herself falling more and more in love with Alex, an event that, after Alex's incredible unconditional support after Piper's emotional breakdown at her parent's home, she didn't believe would be possible. Piper had never really believed in the concept of true love, yet, every moment she spent will Alex, she felt herself beginning to warm to the idea. Meeting Alex had been fate, becoming her friend had been a choice, but falling hopelessly in love with her was something that had proved to be completely out of Piper's control.
As she stands facing the punching bag in the gym, her gloves raised, Piper couldn't help but have her mind focused on to that of her girlfriend rather than her intense night workout. Unfortunately for the two lovers, life for them had become very busy over the last week, causing them not to be able to see each other in over two days, a time frame that had felt like an eternity for Piper. Under Red's desperate pleas, Alex had accepted a few extra shifts at the bar, resulting in her now working into the early hours of the morning. Since her return, Piper had begun the process of an intense training regime, her trainer attempting to have her as fit as possible for her upcoming fights. Because of this, Piper and Alex struggled to find the time to see each other for more than a few very public moments, both girls becoming very unhappy with the lack of intimacy their hectic week had forced them to have.
"Hey, Piper," John calls as he walks towards her, breaking Piper from her thoughts of the disappointments the last week had brought.
Turning to face her trainer, Piper smiles. "Hey John, what's up?"
"Sorry I forgot to tell you sooner. Some of the new sponsors of the gym want to get together tomorrow night, get to know some of their fighter's sort of thing," John replies, detailing an event that usually occurred every year as the gym gained interest from new sponsors or promoters.
Piper frowns and sighs audibly, knowing it was something she couldn't get out of, the event practically having become obligatory to her and the fellow fighters who have the ability to make use of the gym. Piper usually thrived at these kind of events, with both girls and guys throwing themselves at her, wanting so desperately to be the person lucky enough to take her home. Whilst in previous years, Piper had loved this and relished at the opportunity to blow off some steam, usually with a very inebriated straight girl who had suddenly decided to experiment. However, Piper had Alex now and therefore no desire to attend, wanting nothing more than to spend the night with just her girlfriend.
Seeing Piper's reaction, John grins widely. "Wow, she has really done it, hasn't she?"
Piper looks at him in slight confusion, not understanding his posed question.
"Alex. She has finally tamed the wild beast that is Piper Chapman," John says with a laugh, clearly remembering back to all the times he had seen Piper with her arm around someone new. Someone who Piper would rarely remember the name of as she snuck out of their apartment within hours of their encounter, never wanting to stay longer than the time it took for her new 'friend' to fall into an unconsciousness that would allow Piper to make an escape with ease.
Piper just shrugs her shoulders nonchalantly, turning away to prevent John from seeing the bright crimson blush that crept into her cheeks at the mere mention of Alex's name.
John laughs loudly, slapping Piper playfully on the shoulder. "Oh come on Piper, last year you were practically counting down the days to this event and now it's like you have taken a vow of celibacy. I mean you haven't even looked at anyone else since you met Alex," John points out, having noticed the way Piper looked at Alex, never having seen anyone get that kind of reaction from the blonde who he had trained since she was eighteen.
"What can I say, I found my person," Piper says casually as she reaches for her water bottle, flipping the lid and taken a much needed drink. "Oh, and trust me John, I am far from celibate," Piper adds with the raise of her eyebrows, her mind briefly wandering back to all the mind blowing sex she and Alex had had since they had gotten together.
John gives Piper a wicked grin in return. "You should bring her tomorrow, keep all those wasted straight girls' hands off you."
Piper laughs, giving her trainer and friend a warm smile that silently hid her slight disappointment at the fact she knew Alex wouldn't be able to come. "I'll see, she's been pretty crazy with work lately. Is Daya coming?" Piper asks, feeling like she hadn't seen John's fiancé in years, the vibrant woman actually being one of the few people's company Piper truly enjoyed.
John nods. "Yer, we managed to find a sitter. Even if we hadn't, I am pretty sure she would have just brought the baby with her, you know how protective she can get," he says with a smile, his eyes burning with adoration and love as he talks about his girl.
Piper smiles, it actually warming her heart just how in love John was with Dayanara, the two clearly destined for one another. For so long Piper had struggled to see how someone could become so emotionally invested in another, John's love for his fiancé once seeming so hopelessly pointless to Piper's shattered heart. The thought of trusting another person enough the put the fate of your happiness in their hands somewhat disturbing to Piper. Yet now, Piper could finally begin to understand, she herself, finding her own heart beginning to belong to another person, allowing herself to be open to the opportunity of the love and potential heartbreak that came along with that. Alex loved Piper and, by some sheer miracle, Piper had allowed herself to love Alex. The woman capable of providing Piper with the happiness she had so much sort out all these years, happiness that Piper now found herself wanting and willing to accept.
"Anyway, I better get going. Lock up will you? Oh, and I will see you tomorrow at 7pm. Remember to dress in something nice and please don't be late," John reminds her as he walks towards the exit, throwing a small wave over his right shoulder.
Piper nods and waves back in response, before the sound of her phone signalling she had a text message gets her attention. Walking to her gym bag that lays on the floor, Piper bends down and fumbles around in one of its pockets for her phone, pulling the device out and smiling instantly as she sees who the message is from.
From Alex:
Hey Kid, I'm free! Red doesn't need me tonight, so she let me head home early. Want me to meet you at your place? xx
Piper grins at the thought, her mind (and another particular body part) promptly allowing itself to wander to the chance of having her needs met. Tapping her finger quickly against the screen, Piper sends a reply.
To Alex:
Hell yes! I'm just finishing up here. I'll see you soon xx
Grabbing her belongings, Piper decides it was best to take a quick shower, not wanting her smelly body to kill the mood she was so desperate to set tonight. As she enters the locker room, Piper remembers the one small wild-haired person that could potentially damper her plans. Grabbing her phone, Piper sends her a quick message, hoping her roommate had already made plans with Lorna.
To Nicky:
Hey loser. Any chance that you already have plans tonight and therefore will be vacating our apartment for the night?
Piper smiles when she receives a near instantaneous response from her best friend.
From Nicky:
Maybe…but call me loser one more time and I will make sure that I stay in and ruin all your fun ;)
Piper laughs loudly, sending a quick 'thank you' reply to her friend before hopping in the shower, a broad grin stretched on her face as she thinks of her night's plans and how fantastic they will be as most of them involved a very naked Alex.
….
Alex sits on the balcony of Piper and Nicky's apartment, lounging casually on one of the brown deck recliner. Nursing her beer in her hand, Alex immerses herself in conversation with Nicky as she waits, rather impatiently, for her girlfriend to return home.
"I swear it's a miracle I even got tonight off, I think Red just felt sorry for me and let me go home," Alex says, as she takes a much needed sip of her beer, her feet aching from her long shift at the bar.
Nicky laughs from her chair across from Alex. "Nah, she probably just felt the need to do us all a favour and have you satisfy Piper's teenaged boy libido. I mean fuck, you would swear Piper was banging on the walls of Crimson City asking for her to be let in for her monthly visit with how tense she is. You need to sort that shit out and fast before I throw her blonde ass out on the street," Nicky teases with a lift of her beer, jokingly pretending to toast to the thought.
Alex emits a deep laugh, shaking her head at the girl's audacity with a wide smile. "Remind me how you have any friends again?" Alex asks.
Nicky shrugs her shoulders flippantly. "I mean in between my dashing good looks and winning personality, I think people just can't resist the Nichols charm," she says with a wink.
"Poor Lorna," Alex retorts. "I mean, how on earth does she put up with your smug arse?"
"Well," Nicky says as she crosses her ankles and leans back into the chair, "I think she would say love, but I am willing to bet it has something to do with the fucking mind blowing orgasms I give her," she finishes with a smirk, puffing her chest out proudly in accomplishment.
Alex just simply laughs as she shakes her head, taking another sip of her beer as she awaits for Piper and her chance to receive a 'mind blowing orgasm'.
…
As she places her key in the lock of the front door, Piper smiles to herself, knowing that her girlfriend was waiting for her at her apartment, having been slightly upset with the fact that she had not had the opportunity to see her since the day before last. Opening the front door, Piper steps into the dimly lit apartment, allowing the door to gently click shut behind her.
"Nicky? Al?" she calls out as she walks down the dark hallway, curious as to where the two girls were.
"Out here." Piper hears Nicky call from their balcony, the door leading to it wide open as the curtains sway slightly in the breeze of the cool night air.
Walking through the door and out onto the balcony, Piper gives Nicky a warm smile before turning her attention to her girlfriend, leaning down a placing a quick, sweet kiss on her lips. "Hey," she whispers as she pulls away, moving herself so that she in seated in between Alex's legs on the lounge chair, her back pressed up against Alex's front. Alex wraps her long arms around Piper, pulling her flush against her body, eager to feel the familiar warmth of her girlfriend. "Hey babe," Alex purrs in Piper's ear, taking her hand and shifting some of Piper's long blonde hair to the side before placing a small kiss on the back of her neck, snuggling her cheek against the side as she breathes in Piper's aroma.
Nicky scrunches her face at the interaction. "Ugh, you guys are adorably disgusting. It sickens me," Nicky bants with a loud laugh, taking another sip of her beer as she smiles at her friends.
"I'd rather be adorably disgusting than just be plain disgusting. Speaking of disgusting people, why are you still here Nic? I thought you were going out with Lorna tonight?" Piper questions with accusing eyes that practically ask why Nicky was still within the premises of their apartment, a small grin though playing on her lips as she playfully insults her best friend.
Nicky raises her middle finger at the blonde. "Firstly, fuck you. I knew I should have changed the locks whilst you were out of the apartment today. Secondly, I am. But, Lorna is coming to pick me up so your little sex-capade with Vause will have to wait. There is only one set of tits and ass that I want to see tonight and it sure as hell isn't either of yours."
Piper blushes slightly at her friend's frankness, the wild-haired woman clearly knowing her intentions for the night after being kept separated from her girlfriend for too long. Piper feels Alex's chest shift as she chuckles at Nicky's humorous tirade. "You sure Nicky?" Alex quips in. "I mean, judging by the sounds of things you seem a bit sexually frustrated. You sure a small peep show wouldn't help you out?"
Nicky glares at Alex in response, her lips turning up slightly as she attempts to repress the urge to laugh, trying to maintain her 'annoyed' facade. The sound of Nicky's phone buzzing breaks the three from their joyous conversation, Nicky glancing down and smiling at the illuminated screen. Springing from her seat, Nicky shoots Piper and Alex are excited smile. "Well, I'm off," she says as she begins to walk towards the sliding glass door of the balcony. "Oh, and don't you kids do anything I wouldn't do," Nicky says, glancing over her shoulder as she walks through the open door.
Piper laughs. "Nicky, there isn't anything you wouldn't do. You are leaving me with endless opportunities."
Piper can hear Nicky's booming laugh from inside their apartment, the sounds of keys jingling as her friend makes her way to the front door of the apartment. "Just leave me the can of whipped cream in the fridge and we won't have a problem Chapman. I have grand plans for it later," Nicky yells through the apartment, before opening the door, the loud thud of it closing echoing through the apartment as Alex and Piper remain on the balcony in a fit of laughter.
"That's too bad," Alex whispers into Piper's ear in between laughs, the vibrations of her husky voice giving Piper pleasurable goose bumps. "I can do a lot with a can of whipped cream."
Piper raises her eyebrows, leaning her head back to look up at Alex, who has a playful smirk on her lips, her eyes glinting with yearning under the confines of her black rimmed glasses. "Is that so?" Piper whispers, her voice dripping with need.
"Yeah," Alex whispers seductively, her eyes black as they glisten with desire as she leans down to capture Piper's lips with her own, instantly tracing her tongue gently along Piper's bottom lip as she desperately seeks entrance. Parting her lips, Piper opens her mouth granting Alex admission, her own tongue battling slightly against that of her girlfriends, a small moan escaping both of their lips as she does.
Never breaking their kiss, Piper begins to sit herself up, twisting her body around and placing her knees on either side of Alex's left thigh, effectively straddling her girlfriend. Alex lifts her thigh slightly, pressing it into Piper's centre and moves it back and forth to create friction, being rewarded with a muffled groan from the blonde as she continues to kiss her deeply.
Pulling back, Piper moves her attention away from Alex's lips and to the side of her neck, knowing this was a weak spot for the brunette. Using her hands that were presently twisted in Alex's long hair, Piper tilts her head back to allow herself better access, placing small teasing kisses on the base of her throat, her tongue tracing small circles as she moves along. Feeling Alex's breathing hitch and her hands gripping her hips in an effort to brace herself, Piper smiles against the skin of her neck, continuing to kiss up towards the base of Alex's jawline and on towards her earlobe, pulling it gently in between her teeth, a low, wanting moan escaping Alex's lips. "Bedroom," Piper murmurs in a voice laced with pure desire, feeling Alex nod immediately in agreeance at her words, both girls desperate to fulfil their needs.
Leaning back from her girlfriend, Piper steps herself backwards from the recliner, her hands finding Alex's so she can help pull her to her feet, never wanting to break physical contact as the familiar sparks of electricity flow between their bodies. Pulling Alex from her seated position, Piper immediately reclaims her mouth, their tongues fighting furiously against one another as Piper walks Alex backwards and through the sliding door of the apartment.
As they enter the apartment, Alex immediately twists their bodies around, pushing Piper against the wall of the lounge room, grabbing her wrists and bringing her hands above her head to pin them against the wall as they continue to kiss passionately. Shifting her hands so that only one binds Piper's wrists in place, Alex allows her free hand to begin to roam her girlfriend's chest, cupping at her breasts.
Feeling Alex loosen her grip on her wrists, Piper brings her arms down from above her head and to the hem of Alex's shirt, lifting it up in one swift movement to reveal her girlfriend black lace bra, her hands immediately reaching around the back to the clasp. Unfastening the black material and pulling it down Alex's arms, Piper discards it quickly onto the floor below and immediately ducks her head down to Alex's chest to claim a nipple in her mouth, teasing it with the tip of her tongue, a loud moan escaping Alex's lips at her touch.
Pushing her backwards, Piper begins to walk Alex towards her bedroom, her mouth never leaving her girlfriends chest as she sucks and bites gently at the skin in an attempt to leave her mark, wanting to stake her claim on the chest she had learned to adore so much.
As they walk over the threshold of her bedroom, Piper feels Alex's wandering hands firmly grip her waist, her fingers skimming along the edge of her shirt. Gripping Piper's shirt, Alex yanks it quickly over her head, wanting to feel Piper's flushed skin against her own.
Piper pushes Alex back until she is level with the edge of the bed, gently guiding her girlfriend so she now lies flat on the mattress, pinned under Piper's ever heating form. Reclaiming Alex's lips, Piper continues to kiss her passionately, her hands grasping the sides of Alex's face as their lips melt together, their tongues intertwining at each given chance. Alex hands tangle in the back of Piper's long blonde hair, pulling her closer, not wanting to allow any space between them.
Bracing her hands on the mattress, Piper pushes herself up from her girlfriend, a small whine of displeasure falling from Alex's lips at the action. Smiling slightly at the sound, Piper turns her attention to that of the brunette's bare chest, placing small kisses on the hot skin as she makes her way down the valley between her breasts. Continuing southwards, Piper lightly uses the tip of her tongue as she makes her way across Alex's abdomen, placing soft teasing kisses as her hands shift towards the button of Alex's jeans, unbuttoning and zipping with dexterity.
Gripping the sides of the waistband with each hand, Piper pulls downwards, discarding Alex's jeans and panties in one fluid movement. Leaning her head down, Piper begins to leave a trail of soft kisses along the inner side of Alex's thighs as she works her way to her heated centre, Alex gasping slightly at each touch.
"Piper," Alex moans out impatiently, Piper's incessant teasing obviously beginning to become too much for her to bare.
Hearing Alex's sex induced plea, Piper smiles into the apex of her thigh, her hands coming around to grip her girlfriend's hips as she moves her mouth towards her intended destination. Piper can feel Alex squirm as she teases her tongue at Alex's entrance, causing the brunette to whimper slightly, her hands winding themselves in Piper's hair as she attempts to encourage her to continue. Deciding she had teased Alex enough, Piper finally relents, allow her tongue to finally enter her girlfriend, Piper herself letting out a moan at the welcoming taste.
Piper continues to lap at her girlfriend, feeling Alex's body begin to shake as she comes close to reaching her peak. Feeling herself being pushed over the edge, Alex tightens her grip in Piper's hair, a loud moan, that semi resembles Piper's name, escaping as she reaches her climax. Grinning widely at the sight, Piper begins to kiss her way up Alex's still trembling body until she reaches her mouth, stopping there to place a passionate kiss on Alex's slightly swollen lips, as her chest heaves heavily under Piper, her breathing still shallowed.
Piper continues to kiss Alex as she comes down from her high, Alex finally returning the kiss after a few minutes as her body begins to calm. "Fuck, that was amazing," Alex whispers lustfully as she pulls Piper closer, groaning slightly as she feels the material of Piper's pants against her body, instantly regretting the fact that she hadn't had the chance to remove them yet.
"Mmm," Piper murmurs as she kisses Alex again, her hands cupping her face tenderly. Pulling back, Piper looks deep into Alex's emerald eyes, the green orbs that stare back at her filled with so much adoration.
Raising her hand, Alex pushes a stray strands of blonde hair behind Piper's ear before cupping her cheek. "I love you."
Piper smiles widely, her insides warming every single time she hears Alex whispers those words, never truly believing that she finally had the chance to have someone to call her own. Someone who she herself knew she loved as well. "I love you, too," Piper whispers, the words now effortlessly falling from her mouth.
Returning her smile, Alex pulls Piper's face gently towards her own, capturing her lips in a soft kiss that quickly becomes heated. Flipping them over, Alex now straddles Piper, their lips and tongues remaining locked in a fierce battle for dominance as Alex's hands begin to roam Piper's body, her finger's stopping at the waistband of her pants. Pulling back, Alex eyes glint lustfully, the smirk on her face, making all the heat in Piper's body instantly pool to her core as she gives her the mischievous look that always accompanied Alex's face during the beginning of what will become intensely passionate and raw sex.
This was going to be a hell of a night…
…
A/N Hopefully you enjoyed that. My confidence level when writing smut is at like negative 10, so hopefully it didn't suck too much. I tried to make it a bit longer as I know you have all been waiting patiently for it. Sorry for the wait, I just didn't feel right trying to fit something like that in during the intense stuff that has been the last chapters. Good stuff is to come in the next few chapters- Diane will be making an appearance, a flashback explaining how Piper got into boxing, some more Nicky/Piper banter. I think you are all going to like next chapter- we get to see a different side to Alex which will hopefully be fun to read.
I3VauseMan your requested 'boxing' match will appear in the near future. Haven't decided which chapter exactly yet, but it is all mentally written and I just need to find the perfect chapter to fit it in.
As always, please review- it keeps me motivated knowing you guys are enjoying the story. Feel free to suggest things you would like to see happen in the story- even the smallest idea can spur something much bigger in my mind.
Oh, just a quick question. Daya will be appearing in the next chapter. Anyone else in particular you guys want to see me fit in there as well?
