Chapter 13:
"'Till The End Of Time "
Piper nightmares had worsened over the last few days. She jerked awake in the middle of the night and cried without even being able to recall her dreams, just knowing they were horrible. She told Alex about it and her girlfriend told her it happened to her too sometimes. They both badly needed each other's presence at night more than ever, but prison had taken that, among many things, away from them. At least they could spend time together before the night count, but only if they were lucky and the C.O on duty was tolerant that they could hold each other.
Tonight Fisher was on duty and Alex got to lie in bed with Piper as her little spoon. Alex did something that she never thought she would do—she sang for Piper, softly in her ear so that only she could hear her voice. She chose one of Piper's favorite songs from Lana Del Rey called "Blue Jeans". Alex didn't think she had a good singing voice, but she knew Piper would appreciate the effort and that it would soothe the turmoil in her head.
I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you'll remember, oh baby, say you'll remember, oh baby ooh
I will love you 'til the end of time
Piper smiled as Alex sung because she felt like Alex meant each verse and tried to reach her soul with the words.
It wasn't the kind of thing Alex would have done when she first met her. If Piper was feeling sad or angry, her girlfriend's intuitive response was sex because that was the only way she knew to deal with emotions. Now that that wasn't an option anymore, Alex had learned that simpler actions like talking, taking walks or holding each other worked well too. She remembered to keep a good balance of both in their future, if eventually Piper would want to have sex with her again. Alex had faith that Piper would allow her to touch her sexually again someday. Her girlfriend deserved the release and the pleasure, and she knew she would eventually crave it, not just sexually, but spiritually as their love making always evoked a connection.
The blonde's neck was warm with Alex's breath dancing on its surface. She grabbed the other woman's hand that lied on her hip to put it on her heart. It was beating fast for her. "Touch my breast," Piper commanded in a low voice so that nobody hear. Alex asked her if she was sure and Piper lowered her hand on her breast. Alex began massaging it as passionately and gently as she could. Piper moaned and sighed as it removed some of the tension she felt, and Alex toyed with her lobe between her teeth. It brought a feeling inside Piper that was long gone, destroyed and needed. Her body overflowed with desire for her girlfriend. "Oh my god Alex don't stop, go lower," Piper whimpered and slid her hand toward her pants… and just as Alex's finger found their way under the elastic band, they heard footsteps walking near. Alex removed her hand and they both sat up abruptly on the bunk. Bennett informed them there was a bunk inspection tonight and apologized respectfully. He looked around for suspect items and then left. Probably a missing screw driver missing in electric shop or something. By the time the COs were done inspecting all the bunks, the count down for the night was in five minutes. Alex gave her a quick peck and an apologetic look before leaving to her own bunk. They had made progress that night, but unfortunately time wasn't on their side.
"So how is married life treating you Nichols?" Alex asked casually over breakfast the next day.
"Pretty good man, got the best wifey," Nicky said and kissed Lorna's cheek.
Alex's arm was around Piper's shoulders and the blonde kissed her hand. "And I got the best girlfriend." Piper said blissfully and looked at Alex who smiled lovingly at her. It was like they had fell in love all over again. They had always been insanely in love with each other, but never really knew how to love each other properly. Life had made them stronger and smarter, and now that they knew how to be a couple they were going to be one for the rest of their life.
The first snow of November had fallen the night following, and whenever it snowed, randomly chosen inmates had to report to shovel duty. When a C.O woke you up for this, you had 2 minutes to get up, get your senses together and put on your winter clothes and go outside. Piper, Alex and four other girls were chosen. They all met outside next to the shed in which they put the shovels. The C.O told them to shovel all the snow and to get back when they were done. When he was done talking, he went back inside, probably not wanting to freeze his ass. That meant no surveillance and no yelling to shovel faster. The weather was nice and the snow light to shovel. Everyone was happy.
The prisoners put their shovels back in the shed. Alex and Piper were last and waited until all the girls were on their way back inside to hold each other and kiss a bit. "Your lips are chapped Pipes," Alex breathe on her lips and then licked and sucked on them.
Piper closed her eyes and savored Alex's taste on her lips. "Mhhh," Piper hummed and opened her eyes. She looked around in the shed- the shovels used half the space and at the opposite near a small window were a small desk and a chair. "What time is it, d'you know?" she asked curiously with an idea in the back of her mind.
"I think it was like three twenty am when we left the building. It must be around four. " Alex answered. Piper nodded. Next count was at 6:30 am.
"Close the door," Piper ordered with a look on her face that Alex knew too well. Alex obeyed and Piper threw her coat, hats and heavy winter pants on the floor so that she wore only a shirt and underwear. Luckily the shed was heated, so no need to worry about the cold. Alex mirrored her then made her way to Piper. The blonde grabbed her hand and pushed her delicately toward the chair that was in front of the desk. Alex sat down and Piper straddled her laps. Piper smiled a devilish grin before slowly starting to kiss her girlfriend's cheekbone and lifted Alex's glasses on her head. The blonde's lips found their way back to the one's of the woman below her. She cupped her face with her hand and brushed the surface of her lips gently as a sweet prelude. It escalated to a hungry wet kiss and soon Alex darted her tongue in Piper's mouth. The woman on top welcomed her tongue and allowed it to explore freely the moist cavern before she moved her head back and sucked on it hard.
"Fuck Piper, I need you," Alex allowed herself to say for the first time since the assault. She felt Piper's feeling was consensual and Alex would be ready to stop at anytime if asked. Alex grabbed the hem of her shirt and pulled it off, leaving a trail of kisses up her body on the newly exposed skin as she did. Alex put her hands under Piper's tights, tugged her close and made her center grind against her abdomen.
The friction was delightful. Piper threw her head back and moaned. Alex's hand moved from her tight to under her underwear on her ass and her fingers nested between the firm cheeks all while never stopping the delicious friction. The dark-haired woman's mouth ravished between her breast and Piper braced herself on the back of the chair. Piper whimpered and Alex pulled back to look for a sign of discomfort in Piper's face. The blonde had her eyes shut hard and her hands were holding the back's of Alex's neck and head.
Wanting to be sure, Alex whispered, "Feeling alright my beautiful girl?" Piper kept her eyes closed and nodded. "Lead the way baby," Alex told her with a thick and sensual voice. Piper kissed her hard and her fingertips grazed her cheek while her other hand undid her bra deftly. The garment fell on the floor and she undid her own bra.
Piper parted her lips from hers and stood on floor then lied on it on the big coat that she had dropped previously, bringing down Alex with her. The blonde took charge, pinning her down and topping her. She sat up on Alex laps and grabbed her girlfriend hands to massage her breast. Alex pinched and tugged at her nipples and watched her shudder in pleasure. Piper leaned down again and wrapped her lips around hers with great urgency. Alex held her hair up as she let the blonde ravish her neck, licking and biting with an ardor that had been repressed for too long. Alex groan vibrated all the way through their spines. "Tell me how you want it," Alex said as and their eyes met with identical gleams of love and lust.
"I want you inside me," Piper said, her voice roughened with desire, and those simple words made her girlfriend sigh in relief. "I want you to make love to me Alex Vause. I want you to be the last one inside me." She added and Alex spun their body around so she was on top of Piper.
Alex kissed her a bit, pulled out and pressed her forehead on her lover. "You stay with me, promise? Don't leave me." Alex told her with desperation, wanting to be sure the blonde's mind wouldn't wander to dark places. Piper breathed a yes. "I love you Piper." Alex's hand traveled between their bodies and she kissed her breast sensually. Her hand stopped at Piper's abdomen and she brushed the surface before going down for her sex. She entered Piper slowly, watching her face carefully. Piper whimpered loudly and Alex didn't need to worry because she knew that sound too well—it was pure ecstasy. Alex took the time to feel every millimeter inside her, slick and muscular and clenching around her fingers, hungry for a release. Alex moved inside her and hit all the right spots, making the woman below moan and writhe in rapture until waves of pleasure rocked her body and she cried out her release. Piper hips came clamping up on Alex and Alex held her tight in her arms. When the shudder eventually stopped, Alex withdrew her hand and wiped it on the coat. She observed the woman below her—she had her eyes closed and a single tear was sliding down her cheek. Alex's heart skipped a beat, convinced she had done something wrong. "Piper baby what's wrong?" Alex asked softly and cupped her cheek with her hand.
Piper was still recovering from the bliss swimming through her veins and that question didn't make any sense to her, then she realized in the midst of the euphoria inside her that she was crying. Smiling despite the tears, Piper opened her eyes and caressed Alex's cheek with the back of her hand. Everything was perfect. They had made an old shed a beautiful and romantic place to be with their lovemaking, they felt freer to not be inside the prison building and Piper had finally overcame her fear.
"Happy tears," the blonde finally said. "I feel… amazing and then some."
"Good. You deserve to feel amazing every second of every day. I am not gonna let anyone take that away from you ever again." Alex promised. They stared lovingly at each other for a moment before Piper crushed her lips on her girlfriend, and they continued to make sweet love all night until it was time to get back for the morning count.
