Chapter 17

Elliot's Party (Part 2)

Olivia and Alex shared a few more kisses upstairs before heading downstairs to join the party. There were at least 15 people there now, dancing, drinking, smoking, and talking.

Looking around, Alex saw Casey in the corner talking to Trevor, Amanda, Charlie, and some other guy she didn't know.

"Here," Olivia said, twisting off the cap to the Smirnoff Ice Blueberry Lemonade and handing it to Alex. "I bought these for you. Hope you like them!" Olivia poured herself some Jack Daniels and Coke into a red cup.

"Thank you," Alex said as she hesitantly took a sip, surveying the taste. "Wow, this actually isn't bad."

Olivia smiled as she wrapped her arm around Alex's waist. "Good, I was hoping you'd like it. You wanna go talk to Casey? I'm gonna go talk to Elliot for a bit."

"Sure," Alex said.

Olivia reached up and gave Alex's cheek a kiss before breaking away and heading over to Elliot, who was on the couch playing Halo with some guys.

Casey held up her arms as Alex walked over, grabbing her into a hug. "Alex! What're you drinking?"

Alex handed her bottle over to Casey who took a drink. "Wow, that's good. I didn't see these anywhere."

"Yeah, they're especially for me," Alex said with a smile.

"Ahh," Casey smiled in return, nodding her head.

"Hey, Alex," Charlie said nervously, offering to hug her. Alex gladly accepted the hug.

"Hey Charlie!" She turned to Trevor. "Hey Trevor! What're you guys doing here? Hey, Amanda!" Amanda pulled Alex into a long hug.

"Hi, I'm Johnny," Johnny said introducing himself, arm extended to shake Alex's hand. "I'm Olivia and Elliot's roommate. Charlie here, is my little bro." He wrapped his arm around the back of Charlie's neck and pulled him in to rub his knuckles against his head.

"Oh, okay! That makes sense. Nice to meet you."

Johnny leaned in to whisper to Alex. "My little brother here likes you, but I hear you've got your eyes on Benson. Go easy on him."

Alex nodded in understanding. I knew he liked me.

"So," Charlie said, standing next to Alex. "Can I get you a drink?"

Alex held up her half-empty bottle. "That's okay Charlie, I've still got some."

"Oh," Charlie said nervously. "Right."

Everyone in the huddle was talking to one another for a while, but Alex kept getting distracted by Olivia, who was on the couch laughing and joking with Elliot and a couple other guys she didn't know. Every once in a while, Olivia would look over at her and lift her head up in a way that said "hey."

Casey went over to grab a beer for her and Alex, who very much disliked the taste, but drank it anyways. The more everyone talked, the more Charlie kept inching closer to Alex in hopes to make a move. Only half listening to him talk, she looked over to the kitchen to catch Olivia mid drink, staring at them. Is she… jealous?

Alex smiled at her before turning back to Charlie to try and remember what he just told her. Shortly after, she felt someone stand beside her and wrap their arm around her waist.

"This guy bothering you, Alex?" Olivia said as she swished down her drink, staring at Charlie.

Charlie immediately froze up. For reasons he couldn't explain, Olivia terrified him. He had been over here enough times to see his brother, and Olivia had always intimidated him. She knew it, too, and wanted to poke fun. She also really didn't like the fact that he had the hots for Alex.

"N-no, Olivia. J-just t-talking to her," Charlie stuttered as he swallowed.

"No, he's okay, Liv."

Olivia, not breaking her stare from Charlie, nodded as she finished off her drink. "Okay. 'Cause I just wanna know what he's doing flirting with my girl."

Casey gasped and tried not to giggle as she watched the interaction.

Charlie's eyes got wide. "Y-y-your girl? I – Olivia I didn't know – I j-just t-thought –"

Johnny wrapped his arm around his brother as Amanda watched the interaction and rolled her eyes at Olivia. "Dude, Benson is fucking with you. Not about her being her girl, because she is, but she's just pulling your chain. She's not gonna hurt you dude. She knows she scares you."

"Oh." Charlie said, still obviously shaken up. "Well, I… sorry."

"Come on bro, let's go play Halo and beat Elliot on his birthday. You coming, Amanda?"

Amanda sighed before turning to follow them. "Sure."

"Olivia! That was brutal," Alex said, trying to scold her but was unable to contain the smile on her face.

"Nah," Olivia said, holding Alex closer to her body. "He had it coming. Gotta let him know you're mine, Alexandra."

Alex smiled as she leaned down to kiss Olivia, making Casey nearly scream and drop her drink.

"ALEX! OH MY GOD!" Casey squealed, watching as Alex gave Olivia several kisses. "You kissed! Yes!" Casey immediately threw her arms around Alex once they broke apart, Alex laughing and hugging her back. "About damn time!"

Olivia smirked as she turned around to go grab Alex another Smirnoff Ice. "Be right back."

Casey grabbed Alex's face and pulled her in close. Alex could immediately tell that Casey was a bit tipsy. "I can't believe you just had your first kiss and I was here!"

"Uhh, actually, Casey… that wasn't the first." Alex's smile began to grow bigger.

"What? When?" Casey asked intrigued.

"Upstairs when we got here. I kissed her on the balcony after we shared a cigarette."

"You did what!" Casey squealed. "Damn, girl! Cigarettes? Beer? You kissed her? Alex. My dear, dear Alex. I love you so much and I'm so proud of you." Casey had alcohol fueled tears in her eyes as she hugged Alex again before leaning in to whisper, "You gonna get in her bed next?"

"Casey!" Alex said with a laugh. "Calm down! We just kissed, jeez!"

All Casey could do was laugh as Olivia came back with another drink, wrapping her arm around Alex. "So," Olivia said. "You wanna dance?"

Alex turned to face Olivia and started immediately blushing. "I, uh – I'm not very good at dancing."

"Neither am I," Olivia laughed. "We don't have to."

Alex stood there for a moment before grabbing Olivia's hand and leading her to the kitchen so they had a little more privacy. "No, let's do it. If we both suck it can't be too bad then."

Olivia giggled as she said, "You're right." She backed herself against the wall in the kitchen, pulling Alex against her body as she leaned up to kiss her again. She let her fingers rest on Alex's exposed pale skin on both of her sides as she held her.

Alex reciprocated the kiss as she wrapped her arms around Olivia's neck, slowly beginning to sway her hips to the music. Olivia kept her hands on Alex's hips, following her movements fluidly as they both swayed to the music.

Alex broke away momentarily to grab her drink on the counter and chug it before turning around to put her back to Olivia's body. Already feeling a slight buzz, Alex decided to let the alcohol and music take over as she pressed her ass into Olivia and began to sway her hips a bit quicker than she had before.

Alex reached her arm back behind her head to run her fingers through Olivia's hair as she lowered her body to grind against Olivia's front. Olivia's body responded to the move, gripping Alex's sides with a small amount of force, as to be almost possessive of Alex. The reaction only encouraged Alex further, who felt so undeniably comfortable in Olivia's custody.

As the music droned on, thumping the walls of the townhouse, Alex began to move her body in more provocative ways. Ever so smoothly did she run her hands through her own hair as she gyrated her hips to press her ass directly into Olivia's front as she dropped herself lower against Olivia. After repeating the movement about 3 times, she felt Olivia's hands travel lower from her hips down to the side of her thighs; somewhere comfortably between her ass and her front. Once her hands landed in this spot, Alex heard Olivia groan behind her as she dug her fingers lightly into Alex's jean shorts, aching to feel her skin underneath.

"Jesus Christ, Alex," Olivia said, slightly slurring her words. "This is so hot." There was almost a whining to her voice in the last sentence.

Alex smiled to herself as she turned around to again face Olivia, hips still gyrating to the music. Carefully, she positioned herself to straddle one of Olivia's thighs, pressing her own thigh carefully between Olivia's legs. Alex then continued her dancing, holding onto Olivia's shoulders as she grinded playfully against Olivia's leg.

She intently watched Olivia's eyes, which were glued to her body; her hips, her legs, her chest, and her exposed stomach. After a few moments, she felt Olivia's hand travel down to her ass and squeeze it before pulling Alex against her body and crashing their lips together.

As their lips met, Olivia carefully opened her mouth to glide her tongue over Alex's bottom lip, begging and pleading for access inside her mouth. Sure, Olivia was worried if she was moving too fast. But she knew, based on her and Alex's conversations, that this was what they wanted. And she knew, that if it became too much, Alex would stop her.

So, Olivia pressed on, running her tongue over Alex's lips. Hesitantly, but only slightly so due to her inexperience, Alex opened her mouth to Olivia. Once her lips were parted, Olivia swiftly put a hand on the back of Alex's neck and pulled her closer as she let her tongue enter Alex's mouth, exploring every part of the warm mouth.

Alex immediately felt not only her chest warm with excitement as her heart beat faster, but also her entire body ignite with a fierce fire that she never felt before, even through all of the sexting and flirting. She unconsciously moaned into Olivia's mouth as she moved her tongue against Olivia's, fighting for any shred of dominance. The moan only made Olivia hungrier for Alex as she unconsciously drove her hips forward, pressing the seam of her shorts strongly against Alex's thigh, causing Olivia to shudder and let out her own moan.

Alex, realizing what just occurred, pressed her own self against Olivia's thigh, causing her grip on Olivia to tighten as she reciprocated another moan into Olivia's mouth.

The two spent several songs like this – grabbing, kissing, exploring, and pressing themselves into one another until someone broke them out of their trance.

"Benson!" A voice called next to her.

Olivia acknowledged the voice only for a second before going back to continue her make-out session with Alex.

"Dude, Benson!" The voice called again, nudging her in the arm.

Olivia groaned in frustration as she pulled away and looked at the owner of the most annoying voice she heard so far, answering with a sharp tone of annoyance. "Literally what, dude? I'm busy right now."

A tipsy Alex only wrapped her arms around Olivia's neck and laid her head against hers, staring at the person interrupting them.

"You gotta come help El with Halo. He can't lose on his birthday! That Dave dude and his buddy Roger are close to beating him and Johnny." Tim drunkenly pleaded.

Olivia sighed in sheer annoyance. "Tim, are you fucking serious right now? Can you not see I'm busy?"

"Yeah, cool, sup Blondie. You can come back to her in a bit, Elliot needs you. Johnny sucks."

Olivia put her face in her hands as she looked up at the ceiling, her groin on absolute fire. "Tim. Bro. This is why you're fucking single."

Alex giggled at how frustrated Olivia was; she knew she was the cause of Olivia not wanting to stop. "Liv, it's cool. You can go play." Alex planted a kiss on Olivia's cheek.

"I would much rather stay right here with you," Olivia husked, grabbing onto Alex's ass possessively as she gave Tim a death stare.

"Do it for Elliot," Alex said, reaching her own hand behind Olivia to grab one of her cheeks as well. The action made Olivia groan and bite her lip.

"God damnit. Okay, but you're coming with me." Olivia grabbed Alex's hand as they headed to the couch.
