Callie pulled away from the kiss, and Ximena said," What am I doing? I'm gonna go call Poppy."

"Okay," Callie said, watching the Latina girl walk away. "Oh God." Callie crossed her arms and paced around the room. The brunette was starting to get worked up over the kiss.

Ximena returned to the room and said," Poppy's happy."

"Good," Callie said, walking over to her bag. "I probably need to go. My moms will want me home soon."

"Okay," Ximena said. "Bye Callie. Thank you for everything."

"Yeah, no problem," Callie said, trying to pretend that evrything was normal. The two girls shared a quick hug, and Callie dashed out to her car. She got in, and sighed. She texted Lena saying that she was on her way home. She drove home, thinking about the kiss the entire time.

"Hi Callie," Poppy greeted the brunette as she approached her house. "How's Ximena?"

"She's doing good," Callie said, and Poppy noticed that Callie seemed to be thinking deeply about something.

"You okay?" The younger Latina questioned, thinking it might've had something to do with her sister.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Callie said, unconvincingly. "What're you doing outside?"

"Just enjoying nature," Poppy lied, not wanting to admit that she had been waiting outside since she heard Lena say Callie was on her way back, so she could ask her about Ximena. "Ximena told me that you guys made HuffPo."

"Yeah, we did," Callie said, smiling at Poppy. "Come on, we can hang out upstairs. I'm assuming Mariana is out with one of her three boyfriends?" Callie smirked, knowing how her sister had been struggling to choose the right guy.

"Yep," Poppy said, as they entered the house. "She told me that you used to date Wyatt."

"Yeah, I did," Callie said. "Twice... kind of. Wyatt and I had a really weird relationship."

"Ah," Poppy said, showing that she understood. "But you don't like him anymore?"

"No," Callie said.

We reached the stairs when we heard Lena call," Callie is that you?"

"Yeah," Callie said. "I just got back."

"Okay," Lena said.

Once the girls had reached Callie, Mariana, and now Poppy's temporary room, Poppy asked," Are you straight?"

"Ummmm," Callie said, then chuckled softly. "I've never really been asked that before. I don't know. I mean, I've only dated guys, but..."

"Yeah, sorry," Poppy said, sitting at the edge of Callie's bed. Callie sat down as well and looked at the Latina girl.

"Why do you ask?" Callie inquired, looking confused as why Poppy would ask that question. And a bit ironic, considering the day's events.

"I don't know," Poppy said, shrugging. "I guess, I've been noticing how Ximena acts around you, and I think she might like you. Don't tell her I told you. I was just wondering if there was any way that you liked her back."

"Well I noticed the part about her liking me," Callie said, laughing nervously.

"What do you mean?" Poppy asked, putting her hands in her lap.

"We sort of- we kind of kissed today," Callie said, blushing slightly. "Don't tell anyone, though. I kind of left after it happened."

"Wow, really?" Poppy said, kind of smiling. "Do younlike my sister?"

"I don't know," Callie said, not knowing herself if she liked Ximena that way. "I mean, I guess I've had feelings for a girl before, but we never dated or anything. I mean Ximena, but I've never dated a girl. What do I do?"

"Well answer this question: Could you see yourself dating Ximena?" Poppy said, looking at Callie with questioning eyes.

"Honestly, yes," Callie said, putting her face in her hands. "And I'm talking to her sister about it... God."

"I won't tell her," the young girl said, putting a hand on Callie's. "But if you feel that eay about her, you need to tell her so she doesn't move on or think that the feeling isn't mutual."

"You're right," Callie said. "Thank you, Poppy."

"No problem," the Latina girl said, smiling. "Now you better hurry up and tell her."

"Like now?" Callie asked, looking at Poppy.

"Yes!" Callie and Poppy looked up when they heard Mariana's voice from the doorway. "Are you crazy, Cal? If you don't tell her, I will," Mariana squealed. "I've been waiting for you guys to get together."

"What do you mean?" Poppy asked before Callie could.

"Have you seen the way they look at each other?" Mariana said. "I totes knew that you guys were in love. Plus, when I joined roller derby, Ximena asked about you every day. Now go get your girl, sis!"

"Okay," Callie said, standing up. "I guess I'm goimg." Callie disappeared, but returned a few seconds later. "I forgot my keys," Callie laughed, grabbing the keys off the nightstand, and running out of the room.

After Callie left the room, Poppy turned to Mariana and said," Your sister and my sister like each other! This is like the best day ever! Ximena has been waiting since the first day she met Callie to make a move. I'm so happy for them!"

"I think we just gave the best pep talk ever," Mariana laughed, hi-fiving Poppy.

Callie arrived at the church and was greeted by Ximena. "Hey Callie, about earlier I-" Ximena started, but was cut off by Callie giving her a kiss.

"I really like you," Callie said when they pulled away from the kiss.

"I really like you too," Ximena said, giving Callie a hug. "What made you come back?"

"I just got a pep talk by Poppy and Mariana," Callie said, smiling. "They know. And I'm glad they do."

"Me too," Ximena said. "So Poppy talked to you?"

"I kinda came to her," the brown haired girl admitted. "She convinced me to tell you how I feel."

The girls shared one more sweet kiss, and walked into the church where Ximena was taking sanctuary, holding hands and talking about how thankful they were for their sisters.
