A/N: I know it's been months since Ive updated. Had computer problems and started realizing my store was getting confusing, so i tweaked it a bit.

A bead of sweat hugged the side of her face. It traced her face to her dimple, where it dipped in and continued on its journey.

How I wish that bead of sweat were my finger, where I could follow the contour of her face. I suddenly felt silly for being jealous of a bead of sweat.

I focused at the task at hand. She was above me, and I was watching her. She kept grunting in determination and I kept giving her words of encouragement.

Suddenly she fell

Luckily it was only 5 feet in the air.

Rock climbing can be a pain in the ass. We've been trying to solve this problem for over a week now and it seems like we keep getting closer and closer to the top.

She brushed herself off and clapped her hands to get some of the chalk off.

"Want to call it a day? I'm starving" She said.

"Sure, sounds good. My arms are done"

"Awesome! Pizza?" She asked, already knowing the answer.

"Of course! How else are we going to make this workout not count"

We both laughed, waved bye to the front desk and headed to the car.

I got into the passenger side and waited for her to get into the car. She always has the same look when she is trying to get the starter to crank. Almost as if she is willing (or wishing) it to work. Her eyes almost forcing a prayer to the key and the ignition switch. She holds her breath for a second and cranks the key. Miraculously, the car starts up right away.

"You really should get a new car."

"What? Why? I've had this baby since college and she's been so good to me" She replied as she lovingly pet the dash. Little flakes of black started to float around the car as she did so.

"This car is on its last leg. There's no way this is going to last much longer. I hope they didn't make dashes out of asbestos back in the day!" I tried to say as smoothly as I could as I was hacking on the material that was floating inside the car.

"You're so dramatic Calliope. And I only use the car for when we go rock climbing, what's the point of getting another car?"

If I wasn't already a goner, the insulted look on her face was just so cute and yet hot. Her brilliant blue eyes seemed to have shined brighter for a second and her lips at a subtle pout.

"Ok, Ok" I conceded. "But if it breaks down, don't say I didn't warn you!"

We made it to the pizza shop in record time. I was so hungry, I was starting to see double everything, which included double Arizonas, which I guess I can't complain about.

"What do you want to do after this?" Her voice broke through my thoughts.

So far our day had been quiet. No emergency pages. Just the two of us.

I had no idea what to do.

She makes me so nervous. I've had a growing crush on Arizona for a while. At first I thought it was just a crush cause she seemed like such an awesome person. See now I'm saying awesome. But anyways, I thought it would go away, and we've had a long history full of ups and downs, but it just seems like I finding new things to like about her. I just don't want to mess up what we have.

"Hello?...Cal...Hello? Calliope!"

"huh? Sorry" I guess I zoned out for a bit, I can feel my cheeks growing red.

"Wow you haven't been able to concentrate all day! Late night last night?"

"No! I guess this last month is just getting to me" Truth is, I was so excited to spend an entire day with Arizona that I could hardly sleep.

"ok...well, how about we head back. We'll get some wine and grab some movies and just relax"

I nod and continue to eat my pizza.

We get back to her car and after 15 fitful moments of trying to start her car, we start heading back to the apartment.

I feel so dumb. This is my first full day to spend with her and here I am, not saying much just forgetting how to even talk.

I felt the car stop. I looked up and realized we weren't at the apartment.

"Hey give me a sec to run in and grab the wine. Stay here and man the car, so I don't have to work my magic to turn it on again"

"ok" I want her to work her magic on me. She doesn't even have to to turn me on. I watch her walk away, and couldn't take my eyes off her ass. I see her turn around all of a sudden and I tried not to flinch and I'm hoping I look like I'm staring off into space, or past her.

Before I knew it, she was back at the car, bottles of wine in hand.
