Sunlight slowly crept up through the window sills, gently warming Arizona's bare skin. Awakening, Arizona stirred as she felt the rays hit her, waking from a comfortable sleep and then realizing where she was. Or rather, who was with her. The sun was not the only thing caressing her body. She couldn't see her, but Arizona could feel her. Her arms wrapped around her stomach, precariously hovering her breast. Eliza.
*Last night. That. was. incredible. That really happened right? I'm not still dreaming?*
Arizona bent over to give Eliza's arm a quick peck to make sure that her presence was real. Feeling and taking in the smell of her soft skin, Arizona confirmed that this was no dream.
She was with Eliza. All night. They were with each other. All night. After what could only be called a four-course meal of pierogies, the two, exhausted, fell asleep in each other's arms blissfully engulfed in one another.
By now the sun was streaming through the whole of Arizona's bedroom and Eliza stirred. Arizona smiled knowing her *person* was waking up. She bent down again to plant another kiss on Eliza's arm and gently rubbed her skin as she came out of her own blissful sleep.
"Hey you," Arizona said with smile and gleam in her eye still facing the away from Eliza.
Eliza, smiling to herself and while confirming where she was, let go of Arizona's body to quickly rub her eyes. Then she rewrapped her left arm around Arizona, giving her body a squeeze and sun-warmed shoulders a kiss.
"Hey yourself," Eliza replied, her lips moving to place a quick peck in Arizona's hair, taking in her scent.
Arizona, as comfortable as she was, turned her body to meet Eliza's.
Their eyes simultaneously lit up upon meeting each other's. Giving each other a large smile, they both leaned in for a kiss. This kiss was meaningful, sweet, and a perfect way to say *good morning*.
Eliza stroked Arizona's cheek while Arizona tucked Eliza's falling hair behind her ear. Suddenly, their kiss deepened, just for a split second. Neither wanted to let the other go, but both were on call that morning.
With a laugh, Eliza let go and looked at the woman with whom she spent the night. Brushing Arizona's hair out of her face and caressing her temples, Eliza simply said, "Hi," with a smile.
Arizona, staring up, marveled at Eliza's beaming eyes. She let the moment hover in time. She knew that this marked a change in things. A change in her life. She… was falling.
With a satisfied sigh, Arizona said, "Hi yourself," and cupped Eliza's cheek.
Both women gave a chuckle and leaned in for another longer, deeper kiss.
The two women, who normally had so much to say, did not need to say anything to communicate their feelings for each other in that moment. Eliza proceeded to wrap her bare legs around Arizona's. In response, Arizona rolled Eliza onto her back and the two wordlessly agreed that spending 15 more minutes in bed wouldn't be such as a bad idea.
