A/N- So this is my first time doing anything like this. I appreciate everything that other authors have written, so I wanted to put something out there myself. Not sure how long this will be but I have a few additional chapters written so far. I apologize in advance for the Larry stuff in this first chapter, it's just set up for the later Vauseman that will ensue! That will start moving quickly with chapter 2, so bear with me. Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoy.

I obviously don't own any of the characters.

Piper liked Larry.

She did.

He was reliable. He always called when he said he would, and he listened to her when she ranted about work or her mother (which was quite often). They had a good enough time together and Piper enjoyed his company. There was nothing really wrong with him that Piper could point to. It would be ungrateful of her to complain about him, right? He's everything Polly has been telling Piper that she needs, for years now. Piper was always more into one night stands and quick flings with guys. Even with girls sometimes, back in college. When Polly introduced Piper to Larry, Piper decided she'd give it a shot. The random hook ups had been increasingly disappointing lately, and all her friends seemed to be coupled up. Her friends were no longer going out to clubs and crowded bars late into the night. Now it was all couples dinners and couples brunch and quiet dinner parties. Piper thought it made sense to try out this new lifestyle herself if she found the right guy. And Larry seemed to be perfect for this kind of life her friends kept preaching about. Larry made sense. He was safe. As she lay in bed, she kept thinking that she should be happy and content with her life and her relationship. She and Larry moved in together not too long after they started dating, and they've been together for over two years now. It just seemed to make sense.

Piper looked over at Larry. He was curled up in a ball and was snoring pretty loudly, with a string of drool hanging from his lips.

Ugh, thought Piper. Take me now?

The sex with Larry wasn't bad. He was decent, and he sometimes made her cum. She didn't mind their sessions in the sack. They were fine. But Larry was predictable. Piper hated to think it, but yeah, he was pretty boring in bed. They would come home from work or a dinner party with their other "couple friends", and the routine was always the same. They would pour some wine and turn on the TV. They'd be cuddled up on the couch and Larry would start placing kisses on Piper's neck. He'd start rubbing her back. After a few minutes Piper would turn around and start stroking Larry over his pants. He'd ease her onto her back, lay on top of her, and start making love to her.

It was nice enough. Piper didn't always cum, but Larry was sweet and attentive. Sometimes a little too sweet for Piper's taste, though. Most of the times that Piper actually managed to cum, it was because she let her mind wander to dirtier thoughts while they had sex. Sometimes she imagined a spontaneous sexual tryst with a stranger. Someone who had to have her right then and there, wherever they were, and couldn't wait. Someone who made her feel naughty, and not like some boring, prim WASP. Someone who made her blood boil and who could make her come undone again and again. The fact that these fantasies helped her get off with Larry wasn't lost on Piper, but she tried to put it out of her head as much as she could.

And Piper tried to spice things up with Larry. She really did.

A few months ago, they were at dinner with Polly and Pete. Piper had been horny all day and couldn't stop her mind from wandering to dirty thoughts and fantasies. For whatever reason, she was really fucking turned on from the time she woke up. She wanted to give herself a release in the shower before dinner, but Larry was right outside at the sink shaving and getting ready. While he would have probably loved to catch Piper touching herself, the thought of Larry coming in and watching her fuck herself was completely unappealing to her. And she wanted to actually cum, so shower sex ending with a faked orgasm wasn't exactly an attractive option. So after her shower she put on a tight, pale pink dress and passed on the panties. She figured she'd give herself the possibility of a quick fuck with Larry later at the restaurant. There's a first time for everything, she hoped.

While they were eating across from Polly and Pete, Piper started stroking Larry's calf with her foot.

"We decided on sunset beige for the bathroom", Polly said.

"Yeah, took her about a month but she finally made a damn decision!" Pete exclaimed. Larry and Polly started laughing, and Piper gave a quick chuckle but was too focused on the aching between her legs. Since Larry clearly wasn't responding to her foot action, she decided to step it up a notch. She rested her hand on his upper thigh and started stroking it slowly, adding more pressure with each stroke. She felt Larry's leg tremble a little, but he picked up her hand and brought it out from under the tablecloth, giving it a tender kiss.

"What the hell, Larry. Come on", Piper whispered to him.

"Pipes, later. We can open that new bottle of red from my parents and we'll be able to cuddle after".

So much for her quick fuck at the restaurant.

Piper also craved dirty talk. God, did she miss that. She's had fuck buddies that could get her crazy turned on just with their dirty words. Piper was into that shit, and she was damn good at it herself. Whenever she tried with Larry though, he was so awkward that it did next to nothing for her. When he was away for a few nights and she'd try to sext him, his words did nothing for her and she ended up relying on her own thoughts and a trusty vibrator to get herself off. Now she didn't even bother trying with him.

Piper laid in bed now with her pillow over her ears, trying to drown out Larry's snoring. Another night in her "picture perfect" life, she thought as she drifted off.

"Yo Vause, can we get to the club soon? You and I need some pussy." Nicky bellowed to her friend.

"That's real classy, Nick", Alex responded.

"Well am I wrong? It's been what—two weeks for you? That's way longer than the Alex Vause I know and love is willing to go without some action".

"Okay fine, you're right. I've been horny as fuck. Not about to advertise it though like your classy self! Let's go soon. Think we should hit up Maxx?"

"You fucking know it. That club was crazy last time. Chicks were everywhere and they were feeling me. And by the end of the night, you know I was feeling them", Nicky says with a wink to her friend.

"You are such a gem. Remind me again why I'm friends with you?" Alex responded

"Well, probably cause I let you take that hot red head home while we were there. I could've had that dime for myself" Nicky retorted.

"Uh, that's a good one! You LET me take her home? If I remember correctly, she was grinding her ass into ME on the dance floor. And begged ME to fuck her in the bathroom because she couldn't wait. And then left early with ME because she was so satisfied with my first performance. Keep thinking you could have had her though!"

"Fine, fine. Even I can't deny the effect you have on some serious babes. They all want a piece of some Vause"

"Damn right! But okay really, can we go to Maxx this Friday night? Now you've got me all excited".

"I have that effect", Nicky says with another wink.

"Fuck you, you know what I meant", Alex says as she throws the magazine in her hand at her friend.

That Friday, Larry took Piper to dinner and the movies. They had a decent time, and by the end Larry was getting a bit handsy. Piper knew it was from the many glasses of wine he had at dinner, and she certainly wasn't complaining. She hoped that maybe since he was acting so frisky now, by the time they got home he would be feeling adventurous.

"Pipes, you… are the prettiest most beautiful girl in the woooorld!" Larry slurred while he wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, as they walked home.

"Hey, I like this Larry, How bout we pick up the pace and get home so you can show me how good you think I look?"

"Yes ma'am!" Larry blurted out as he placed sloppy kisses on Piper's neck.

They got back to the apartment and Larry was finally showing some passion. He pressed Piper against their door and put his body flush against hers. Piper got excited by this, and unzipped his pants to warm him up. Before she could even get started on him though, he was overcome with a wave of nausea and pulled away from her.

"Fuck Pipes I'm sorry, but I can't. I feel sick and tired and I kinda just want to crash for the night. Too much al alcohol", he slurs out.

"Okay, that's fine sweetie", Piper says as she tries to ignore the growing pressure between her legs.

Half an hour later, Piper was lying next to a passed out Larry. As much as she tried to push aside her obvious needs, she couldn't help but still feel a desire growing in her. And it's a Friday night for Christ sake. She should be doing something fun, not going to bed early. Piper thought about starting a new book, but she couldn't keep having these boring nights. She had to draw a line somewhere. She grabbed her iPhone from the nightstand and opened her app center. After some hesitation, she started to search for the new app she's been hearing about.

Am I really doing this? I'm with Larry, that should be enough.

Piper decided it was fine to download it, because she just wanted to talk to different people. It wasn't like she had to do anything more.

[Nicky]- Hey Vause, I have to back out of our little trip to the club tonight, sorry!

Alex read the text message on her phone and let out a loud sigh. She should be used to her friend flaking out, but tonight she really wanted to get some action. And she didn't feel like going on her own tonight.

[Alex]- What the hell, why are you bailing on me?

[Nicky]- Took a girl for drinks at happy hour. We've had many happy hours since then ;)

[Alex]- Ugh. Fuck you.

[Nicky]- That's already being taken care of, thank you very much :)

[Alex]- You're the worst. But seriously, where did you find this mythical girl you took to drinks?

[Nicky]- New hook up app! Get with it, Vause. Download that shit and put up a hot picture with a low cut shirt. Girls will be drooling over their phones when they see you.

[Alex]- Eh, maybe. Those things are usually pretty stupid. And filled with straight girls who want to experiment, but then back out before you even meet them.

[Nicky]- Whatever you say, boss. But this girl I matched with is definitely not straight, and definitely is not backing out of anything ;)

[Alex]- Okay I get it. Some of us are old school though and prefer to meet in person. Try the club thing again tomorrow?

[Nicky]- I'm there!

Since it was too late for Alex to reach out to other friends to go out with, she considered her options. She could always just grab a book off her shelf and call it a quiet night. That seemed pretty unsatisfying for a Friday night though… She could go to the bar down the street and pick up the first girl that bats her eyes at her. Alex really doesn't feel like getting herself ready and playing that whole game though. She decides that her best bet is to text Sylvie and see what she's up to. She really doesn't feel like dealing with Sylvie's clinginess and need to hang around after they finish, but at least she's a reliable fuck. Alex figures it's better than her other options, and shoots her frequent booty call a text.

[Alex]- Hey, what you doing tonight?

[Sylvie]- I'm guessing you, now. Can't get there till like an hour though. That okay?

[Alex]- Yep

Alex thought that while she waits she might as well check out that app Nicky suggested. She might as well get a laugh at all the desperate girls on there. She downloaded the app and quickly finished her profile. She used a picture that showed off her dark eye liner and red lips. Her glasses covered her green eyes, which were looking right at the camera, completing her relaxed smirk. Of course, she listened to Nicky and made sure the picture displayed an ample amount of cleavage. Hey, she might as well show off what she's got.

Alex is not at all surprised when the girls that come up are all totally not her type. A few even said they were looking for a woman for a threesome with their boyfriend.

Yeah, like that's going to happen

Alex swiped left over and over and was starting to get bored. She could be using her time doing something else until Sylvie gets there. She swipes left a few more times, but then stops her motions. She sees the profile of a "Piper". There's something about this Piper girl that makes Alex actually go to her profile instead of swiping her away like all the others.

"Piper Chapman, Smith grad"

Piper had wavy blonde hair that framed her face perfectly. Her bright blue eyes sparkled and Alex couldn't look away. She found herself wondering what those eyes would look like in person, but shook away the thought. This was just for fun until Syvie gets there. But Alex couldn't help but notice Piper's smile. Wide and white-toothed, and making Piper seem full of life and excitement.

Fuck it.

Alex swiped right.

Nothing happened, so she closed the app and put her phone next to her on her bed.

Piper set her preferences for both men and women when she opened the app. She might as well go for it. And if she's being honest with herself, the memories of making out with other girls in college still give her a jolt of pleasure whenever she revisits them.

The first couple people that show up on her screen look kind of sketchy. She starts to question what she's even doing. But then a woman's face comes up next. A face framed with sexy secretary glasses. Bright green eyes. And it's more than her face that Piper notices. Her eyes gravitate towards this Alex woman's chest. And holy shit. Piper feels her mouth start to water, and feels a heat between her legs. But surely a woman like this wouldn't swipe right for someone like Piper, right? She's clearly incredibly cool, and is an insanely stunning person. She could probably have anyone she wants. Piper decides to swipe right, since it's not like she'll match with this woman anyway. Piper waits to see her next option, but a new screen pops up onto her phone.

"YOU HAVE MATCHED WITH ALEX!"
