Her Strongest Drug

|13| Late Night Thoughts

"Ok ok", the drunken teen spoke through laughter that filled the basement, "Alex truth or dare?"

Seventeen year old Alex Vause gave him a look, "C'mon bro you know I'm no pussy, dare all the fucking way", she said as her friends cheered her on.

In the basement that Friday night was Alex, Stella, Jason, Trevor, and Justin. Darren was usually part of their little group as well, but his mom caught him smoking weed in his bedroom. Alex and them laughed at him for making such a stupid mistake and quickly banned him from their pot smoking assemblies.

"Alright, alright I dare you to kiss the hottest chick in this room", the boy said drunkenly confident. All eyes went towards Alex to hear her response.

Alex smirked, "Well I'm the hottest one here, so do I just kiss myself?", she said cocky.

Everyone laughed. No one argued with her though for it was true, she was the hottest one there after all.

"Okay what about Stella", Trevor asked.

Alex gave him a disgusted look, "She's one of my best friends I'm not gonna kiss my best fucking friend".

"Wait you guys haven't kissed before", Justin asked.

"Just cause we're both lesbians doesn't mean we're automatically attracted to each other", Stella spoke.

Jason laughed, "Yeah besides Stella's too butch for Alex", he said.

"I'm not butch", Stella exclaimed.

The boys all laughed.

"Ok well she's not butch but she's definitely not a femme either and sorry Carlin but I only like girly girls", Alex said.

"Don't flatter yourself Vause, I'm not interested in you either. I have the same taste in girls as you", Stella took a sip from her beer.

"Well I never said you had to kiss someone you like. I said you have to kiss the hottest chick here and not counting you it's Stella, so get to the smooching", Trevor said as a smirk crept on his lips.

"Ugh fine", Alex said and quickly caught Stella by surprise with her lips.

Stella kissed back and the crowd cheered. Alex was surprised on how soft Stella's lips were. And Stella was surprised on how good of a kisser Alex is. They pulled apart and both simultaneously wiped their mouths. Though the kiss was meaningless to them both, it was still a pretty hot kiss. That was surely undeniable.

As the boys started talking about how hot that was and other stupid guy stuff Stella decided to talk to Alex in order to not get involved in their stupid conversation.

"Bet you wish you had the blondie kissing you instead huh Vause", Stella whispered in Alex's ear.

Alex jerked her head towards Stella with an off guard expression, "Who?"

"Don't act dumb. You know, your little straight girl friend. The one with the boyfriend that you secretly hate", Stella said.

"Piper?"

"Ah yeah that's her name", Stella smirked.

Alex's facial expression changed.

As soon as Stella saw that she sat up, "Holy shit", she looked at Alex with amusement, "you still haven't talked to her, have you?"

Alex looked down, "I have, just not as much as before."

Stella sighed, "Have you guys even hung out since she and Barry started dating?"

Alex laughed at Stella's name change for Piper's boyfriend. She thought about Stella's question for a minute then shook her head regretfully.

Stella looked at Alex with concern for her friend, "Damn Vause, you let your straight girl crush jealously get the best of you", she patted Alex's back.

Alex took a deep breath and sighed, "yup".

· later that night ·

It was late at night and Alex entered her apartment quietly to avoid waking up her mother.

Alex tried to look through the darkness and she made her way to her mother's bedroom to check on her.

She peered through the door and saw that her mom had fallen asleep in her uniform. There was no point in taking it off anyways, she might as well be buried in it, Alex thought.

She slowly closed the door with extreme caution and made her way to her room, occasionally bumping into a few things.

Once she was in her poster covered messy room, she took off her jacket and her clothes and changed into more comfortable sleepwear.

She then proceeded to lay down in her lame excuse for a bed, which was just a mattress with a lumpy pillow and a blanket.

She tried to go to sleep, but of course she couldn't. She had too much on her mind. Well actually the only thing she had on her mind was Piper.

You see, Piper and Alex maintained a healthy friendship throughout freshmen and sophomore year. But then this year, their junior year, was a different story.

In the beginning of 11th grade, Piper started officially dating Larry. Alex didn't think much of it at first, but then after a while seeing her and Larry kiss and hold hands and just be a couple lit something inside of Alex.

It took a long while and with the help of Stella but Alex eventually came to the terms where she accepted the fact that she had a crush on Piper. So she did the only reasonable thing. She avoided her. But the only thing that did was make her think about the blonde even more.

So she kept talking to Piper, only through phone calls and texting though. They haven't actually hung out in months. Piper was so focused on Larry though that she didn't even notice Alex was gone. Which only made Alex even more upset about the situation.

And so a broken Alex Vause goes into deep thoughts about her and her favorite blonde. All while thinking that Piper doesn't need her and that she's better off without her.

What Alex didn't know though is that Piper needs Alex right now. More than ever actually.

And this time, it's serious.
