Chapter 1

Arizona POV

A soft knock on the door made me finally look up from my book. I swear I could have missed the knock had it been any softer. I lazily make my way to the door to find my lovely best friend, Teddy Altman, standing there with a bottle of wine in tow. I give her a bright smile and motion for her to come in.

'Ahh you're here,' I say.

'How could I miss the opportunity of hanging out with my best friend, drinking wine and talking about our lives on a Saturday night?' sarcasm evident in her reply, though she only half means it.

'Hey... You know I have an early start tomorrow. There are three women who are coming tomorrow and I need to not be hung over to pick the right one.'

'Yeah… The search for a new roommate', stated Teddy, ' why didn't you just ask Carly to move in with you?'

Yep I needed to avoid her gaze and the floor was perfect for that.

'You asked her to move in with you?'

'Yes umm last week'

'Well then what happened?'

'She...she said that I was being stupid and it was going too fast. So whatever, she's right actually. I was being stupid', I say with a sad smile.

I wasn't able to hide the tone of my voice which is why Teddy raised her eyebrows and gave me a pointed look. But she dropped it. She always told me that I fell for Carly way too soon and that I keep dancing to her tunes. Sometimes I feel that she is right but I like not to think about it too much. I have her and that's good and all Teddy can do right now, is to be here and help me, which she does perfectly.

'I mean... We aren't that far enough in our relationship for that step yet. And..I...I'm not really ready to move in with her yet anyway', I continue, talking about a four year long relationship.

'If you say so… But we both know that you could do better', Teddy replied and started opening the wine bottle which was much needed now.

I wasn't earning much yet and I really wanted to save on my expenses for the apartment, thus the hunt for a new roommate since my girlfriend shot me down. Sure I could get a less expensive apartment but I didn't want to let go of this place, it was beautiful. I figured I would be much happier staying here than some other small room. So like always, I decided to put a smile on my face and look for a roommate. I had already seen a bunch of people last week but I didn't think it wise to share a home with a stripper, a beginner drummer (who would need a lot of practice), or a guy from some gang of some sorts.

'Yes Teds, I know. If Henry was a woman, I would be totally fighting you for him', I say jokingly.

'You wouldn't have to fight then. I would back out'. She very much liked her boyfriend as a boy.

We enjoyed our little chat. What started with a little wine ended with an entire bottle and then some. There was crazy dancing, a lot of running around and both of us had quite a few falls. In the end we were both pretty drunk so neither of us could drive and calling a cab was just a pain so I let Teddy crash in the spare bedroom while I passed out as soon as I hit the pillow.

Waking up to a headache is never easy. Usually, I'm a morning person and I really hoped to be bright and shiny today, not being woken up with a crazy headache, but such are the effects of alcohol. I gaze at the clock on the table next to my bed and jerk out of the bed. Shit! I have only 30 minutes to get ready and kill this headache before the women come to see the house.

First thing on the list... Make a boatload of coffee. I get the coffee started and in the meantime, I take out two aspirins. I took one and kept the other one on the table ready with a glass of water.

As soon as the smell of the coffee filled the kitchen and wafted down the hall, I looked up, waiting. As expected, Teddy emerges from the spare room, following the aroma of coffee and sits down on a stool next to the kitchen platform, with her hands supporting the weight of her head.

'Here, take this. The coffee's ready too. The ladies should be here soon and your punishment for making me drink so much is that you are going to stay back and help me pick the right one,' and with that I pass her the medicine and a big cup of much needed coffee.

'Argh! Do I really have to?!' Teddy whines after a large gulp of liquid heaven, otherwise known as coffee.

'You have no choice. Now get moving'

I had given time slots to all the girls just to make it easier for them. And right now the first one was late, late by 5 minutes already. Now I had grown up as a military brat. I knew the importance of time and punctuality and this made me feel less positive about the girl to come.

A good ten minutes later, I find myself opening the door to a tiny red headed girl.

'Hi I'm Arizona, you must be Reed?'

'Yes'

'Well come on in', I say as I invite her in. Reed looks at the living room with a nice smile, until she looks at Teddy sitting on the kitchen stool and both their smiles falter. I see both the girls staring wide eyed at each other. Reed looks down at her feet and all I can do is look questioningly at my friend, who was trying very hard not to laugh.

Once I showed her the apartment and asked her a few questions, she left. She wasn't bad as a person but I can't see myself living with her if I have better choices.

'What was with the stares?' I finally ask Teddy

'Do you remember the time I dated Mark Slone?'

'Yeah of course, who can forget the man whore! Sleeping with God knows how many women. Didn't you find another girl in his bed after which he proposed a threesome?'

'Yea... And Reed was that girl.'

'What? Damn! I can't take her now'

'Don't tell me you actually liked her'

'She didn't seem that bad. I don't know how the other two will be', I say. And just then there was another knock on the door.

'Let's find out'

The second one was better than Reed. Her name was April, red head, small body, wide eyes and a bit too over excited about a few things and she kept talking about how she would re-arrange a few things.

I liked April better than Reed, though I wouldn't have picked Reed anyway, not after the small piece of information that Teddy told me.

As I hear another knock, I open the door to what in my opinion was a little slice of heaven. Right in front of me stood a girl, no correction, a woman. She had a head of thick, dark black hair, deep brown eyes, perfect full lips, a curvy body and now the megawatt smile as she starts speaking. I think I just died; she can't be real, can she? Shut up Robbins, you have a girlfriend. This woman is just good looking… extremely good looking.

'Hi, I'm Callie. I'm here to see the apartment?'

'Hi Callie', I greet her, 'I'm Arizona. Please come in', I finish and flash my dimples to somewhat match her perfect smile. Something I know that has the power to melt anybody. Not that I want to melt her, why would I. I don't need to, there was absolutely no reason to be impressive but any who it worked.

She walks in and I introduce her to Teddy. We began a calm conversation. It wasn't like she had to ask questions. We just naturally fell into conversation.

'So where are you from, Callie?'

'I'm originally from Miami'

'Wow you came across the whole country to be here?'

'Yeah well I needed to try something new. I have a chance of getting a job here so I don't mind'

'What do you do?' I ask with intense interest.

'I was in the theatre while I stayed in New York'

'Wow! I... I really didn't see that coming. You had any good roles?', I ask even though I already knew the answer to that because there was no way I could forget her face even if it was a role of a dead girl.

'I was in a few good shows but nothing big for a while. Then I decided to come here. So I guess I'll have to wait and see. I haven't really planned my days yet. What do you do?'

'I work at a day care center that my mother owns'

'Tough job?'

'Yea, some days it's so hard I just wanna throw in the towel, and then the rest it's just wonderful', I say as I think about what I really want to do.

'As much as you like it, it isn't what you want to do in the long run is it?'

This question really takes me by surprise. I didn't tell many people about my focus and the fact that Callie caught on to it so soon is really surprising. I would really like to be a part of my family business but I also wanted to see what I could do on my own.

'No, it isn't. I am also studying to be a Pediatric Nutritionist', I say with a little hint of pride.

'Wow!' she says and smiles at me. We lock eyes and I can't seem to take my eyes off of hers. They have so much…depth. Such soothing eyes. I could keep staring at her all day. Wait, what?

'Well if you're done staring at each other, want to see the house?' Teddy interjects. I mentally thank her for the interruption and stopping my brain from wherever it wanted to go.

I blush slightly and I see Callie do the same. God, she is so beautiful. I can feel butterflies in my stomach but don't understand the reason behind them.

I showed her my cute little apartment. The door opened in the living room with a couch right in front of the television and on the left, an open kitchen with kitchen stools to serve also as a dining area. It was a small yet fine kitchen, enough to space two people. To the right of the door was a table and huge windows and the two ends of the living room presented the door to two rooms with attached bathrooms, for which I was really glad. There wasn't much in the house, making it quite spacious to live comfortably.

'I love this place', Callie said

'I know the feeling. Exactly why didn't want to give it up.'

She stayed back for a while, talking to us. It was funny how easily she could talk to us, she fit in so well. It felt good.

Finally she looks at her watch and I know that she has to get going. I don't want her to but obviously I don't show that on my face. I hope.

'I need to go', she says

I nod. 'I'll call you and tell you the final decision later.'

'Alright'

Callie goes up to Teddy and they share a warm handshake. She turns to me and I know I want to hug her. Hug her and not let her leave for a few minutes. What is going on with me?! But she settles in for a handshake and I gladly reach out for her waiting hand. I immediately felt a spark, our hands fit perfectly together. With a deep look in her eyes and one last breath-taking smile, I manage to let go of her hand.

As soon as she leaves Teddy looks at me with raised eyebrows, a smirk playing at lips.

'What?! Stop looking at me like that'

'You like her'

'Yeah she was the best. I guess she's the one'

'Maybe she is' and with a wink she leaves me alone to ponder over my thoughts that went back to the brunette.

Maybe I should choose her.
