A New Beginning. (Lesbian Story)

Chapter 16 - I heart you

Alex's POV

"Why did you take the hit Alex?" I look into Piper's eyes and open my mouth, not fully knowing how to answer. "Al, are you home?" I hear Diane shout as the front door slams shut. I feel the invisible bubble that was around me and Piper pop causing me to jump slightly. "Yeah, I'm in here!" I respond whilst standing up and holding a hand out to Piper. I briefly look into her eyes to see confusion as to why I didn't answer her question which I just ignore as she takes hold of my hand. I pull her up and into me causing her to giggle slightly and kiss the side of her head. "You're not getting out of answering that question Alexandra, we will talk about this later." I roll my eyes and sigh, muttering a quiet 'damn' under my breath causing her to giggle again.

"Oops, am I interrupting something?" Me and Piper hesitantly pull away to face my Mom. "Alex! What the fuck is that on your face? How many times have I told you that your mouth will get you into trouble one of these days. Jesus Ch-" she screams. "Mom! I didn't get into a fight and I didn't actually get this for my mouth this time. Just sit down and I'll explain, alright?"

She slowly nods in response and sits in the arm chair in the living room whilst me and Piper sit on the couch. Well, I sit on the couch and then pulled Piper onto my lap and wrapped my arms around her waist whilst she played with my fingers. I look from my girlfriend to Diane to see a beaming, shit eating grin cover half her face and an eyebrow raised. I grin immediately knowing what she's thinking but shake it off quickly.

"Okay... So, do you want the long version or the short one?" I ask which earns me that 'Vause look'. "Guess you want the long one then..." I mutter, taking a deep breath before continuing. "Okay, so me and Pipes went to hers after lunch this afternoon. We were watching something and yeah... You know what I'm like when I'm bored with a beautiful girl..." I smirk and look over to Piper who is hiding in my neck but I can tell she is blushing, big time. "So yeah. We were kissing and this one decided to straddle your poor defenceless daughter against her will" Piper immediately pulled back, bright red like I had guessed and slapped my arm, meanwhile Diane's laugh was filling the room. I let out a chuckle and kiss Piper on the cheek as an apology causing her to smile.

"Anyway, Pipes parents walked in and yeah... They didn't know that their beautiful, intelligent daughter was as straight as a roundabout so seeing her kissing another woman... Well, you can imagine their reaction. Piper tried to explain that she wasn't straight and has a girlfriend - being yours truly- and they didn't like it. Piper's Father went to hit Piper so I pulled her back and took the hit. Told him he was out of order in a few more words than that but I was still polite. Me and Piper packed her a bag so she could stay here for a couple days because I didn't want to leave her there whilst her parents were like they were."

I looked over to Diane and saw her mouth agape slightly. "Wow..." Is all she said. Then a smile took over her face causing me to look confused, "Soooo, you two are together?" She askes with a smirk and her eyebrow raised. Me and Piper nodded simultaneously, both with smiles. "Well, I'm more than happy for the pair of you and kid, you can stay here for as long as you like. You're pretty much a Vause now as far as I'm concerned." Piper looked at Diane with tears brimming at the edge of her eyes. I pulled her in tighter to me and kissed her temple, knowing she likes that. "Okay... So, what do you guys want for dinner?"

A couple hours later and loads of embarrassing stories from my childhood and laughs from everyone, me and Piper were in bed. My front was pushed up against her back in a spooning position. I close my eyes trying to lose myself to sleep like I assumed Piper had, but I was wrong. "Alex, are you still awake?" I heard her delicate voice whisper off into the dark room. "Yeah" I reply. I felt her turn over and I could somehow see her bright blue eyes through the dark. "Don't think I've forgot... Why did you do it Alex? Why did you take the hit? You had no reason too." I took in a deep breath knowing I'm not going to get out of it.

I moved my hand up from her hip to rest it onto her cheek. "I did it because I hate seeing you physically or emotionally hurt. That hurts me more than any blow to the face. I promised to protect you Pipes... I didn't just say it for the sake of it. I really will use everything in my power to protect you. I... I heart you, Pipes" I say, looking into her eyes with a serious expression on my face. "You heart me?" She replies with a playful smirk on her face. I look down a little, smiling and blushing. "Is that like an 'I love you' for pussies?"  She asks giggling. "Hmm, say pussy again" I respond pulling her closer with a grin on my face. A serious look takes over her own face and she responds with, "I heart you, too".

I look deep into her eyes, both with serious expression on our faces. We both lean in and allow our lips to touch. They brush over each other lightly, slowly getting more passionate. I graze my tongue over her lower lip causing her to open her mouth so our tongues playfully dance together in a unique rhythm that could never be re-created. A gentle moan comes from Pipers mouth which leads to a low groan to make its way up my throat. I slowly rest my body on top of her own and allow my hand to run down from her cheek and onto the inner side of her thigh.

I feel Piper tense so immediately pull back to see tears forming in her eyes. I immediately ask her, "What's wrong baby?" A single tear rolls down her face which I immediately wipe away with my thumb. "I'm sorry... I just... He just came into my head... I'm so sorry Alex... I really want to but I... I'm still haunted by him... I'm so sor-" As Piper bursts into tears I pull her into my chest and rock her back and forth, placing delicate kisses on her forehead until she falls asleep. No more than 5 minutes later I join her in dream world, not knowing how our reality is going to take a turn tomorrow.
