"Break up with him?"

"Yes Piper break up with him"

She looked down, her eyes wondering and staring at the ground as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.

"So", she chuckled a bit, "you want me to break up with him", she asked again.

Alex rolled her eyes and scratched her forehead, "Mhm Piper that's what I've said at least five times already", she mumbled the last part.

"But-"

"No buts just do it", Alex interrupted her, "Do it or else no pot for you", she teasingly waved the baggie of weed in front of her.

Piper contemplated for a moment asking herself whether or not this is the right thing to do, but honestly she didn't know. How could she break up with sweet caring Larry. She loved him, she was sure of it! And she cared about him a lot. Sure he's made some mistakes in the past, but that's no reason to break up with him. Is it?

"Piper snap out of it", Alex snapped her fingers at Piper.

"God why are you even thinking about this! He's a jerk! A-and he practically tried to rape you! Are you really that blind!", Alex stood up now. She felt like she was burning up and words just kept coming from her mouth, "Don't you see Piper, he's manipulating you! Making you think he's a good guy, it's like you don't have a brain of your own anymore. That you can't think for yourself, you have to check in with him about everything".

Piper just sat there not moving. Her mouth was partially open, trying to let words just anything come out, but she couldn't move. She was just frozen. Which only made Alex more frustrated.

Alex took a deep breath and licked her lips, "You know what nevermind", she reached into her pocket and threw the baggie at Piper, "Do what you want", and with that she walked away leaving Piper alone on the roof.

Piper closed her eyes, but no tears came out. She knew Alex was right. Alex was almost always right about everything.

"Fuck Piper can you do anything right?", she thought to herself.

• the next day •

She still remembered how to get over the fence.

The fence made the neighborhood look kinda like a prison with the prison-like bars, and when she was little and obviously tinier, she used to be able to squeeze through the gaps. But that was when she was scrawny and, well, didn't have boobs or an ass.

So once her body started to change, she had to learn how to go over the fence rather than through it.

She found an area where the dumpster was and she could easily climb on top of it to easily jump to the other side. Which is what she did this morning.

Unfortunately she was a little rusty since the last time she climbed the fence was freshmen year. Her white pleather jacket got caught and tore a huge hole in it. Luckily she herself didn't get scratched but damn that was her favorite jacket.

She walked up to Piper's house, she still remembered which house it was regardless of it almost being a year since she last came here.

No matter how many times she's been here, it always amazed Alex how big Piper's house was. She was about to knock on the door when she saw the doorbell in the corner of her eye. A memory of Piper scolding her for knocking instead of using the doorbell played in Alex's head.

Cue the annoyingly boring and long rhythm of noise that is the Chapman's doorbell. Alex then remembered why she hated that damn thing and why she always knocked instead.
