FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE

CHAPTER 2

"Calliope" I say rather loudly when she answers her door on the first ring of the doorbell. "You look gorgeous as always" I finish my admiration of the beautiful Latina that stands before me as she opens her door a little wider to allow me access into her apartment. We met two weeks ago and shared a lovely couple of days together but after both of us enduring a grueling two weeks straight of working without a day off until today, I have finally set aside tonight for our first actual date night. Calliope waves me in as she kisses me on my cheek as I pass her as she says "Hello you" as I return the kiss to her cheek. I watch Callie place her signature leather jacket over her arms and shoulders as she tosses her hair out from under the collar as she asks me "So Arizona, where are you taking me to dinner for our first official date"? I am all giddy inside about her acknowledging our first date as I say "I have made reservations at a wonderful French restaurant downtown. Then I thought we could visit SAM if you're interested"? Callie and I exit her apartment as she stops to lock her door behind us as she questions "SAM"? I then place my arm inside hers as we walk to the elevator and I say "SAM stands for the SeattleArt Museum. I would like to look around the museum and see if there are any pieces I might like to purchase for my new home. Are you even interested in art at all, Calliope"? Callie pushes the button for the lobby of her apartment building as she says with a chuckle in her voice "Of course Arizona, I enjoy art. I just never found any pieces anywhere here in Seattle that interest me that's all".

We share a magnificent meal with a great bottle of wine and a little foot playing under the table. Callie takes off her high heels and runs her foot up my calf and underneath my dress and in between my thighs as I whisper for her to stop but she knows I do not mean what I say. We try to continue to talk about our lives and our families as we find a significant but distant pattern in both of our parents and how they affect our lives even with them living in different cities than us. After dinner Callie and I decide to walk the four blocks to the museum. I quietly scold her on her behavior earlier as she whispers in my ear "You loved it Arizona as you and I both know it and another thing, there is more where that came from later". It is a cool night but a very clear night one of about seven that Seattle gets all year as Callie tells me as we walk arm in arm as I grow closer to her and her leather jacket partly for the way she makes me feel all over and partly for the warmth. We enter the museum as I hand the person at the door our two tickets for the private showing that is going on this evening. Another person walks up to Callie and I to offer us a glass of wine as Callie takes a glass of red and I ask for a glass of water or a bottled water as I am driving tonight. The young man goes to obtain the drink I asked for and finds me about a minute later to hand me a glass of ice water. I thank him for his trouble as Callie and I make our way around the museum. We both notice some very interesting pieces from some northwestern Indian tribes, but none worth putting a price on just yet. As Callie and I walk out of the museum and to my vehicle she says to me "You know Dr. Chernick the Head of Gastroenterology at the hospital happens to be good friends with a gallery owner here in Seattle. Maybe we can talk to him about introducing the two of us and see if we can find just the kind of art you might be looking for, Arizona. I can set up a meeting with him if you like"? I kiss Callie on the cheek as I say "That's a wonderful idea, baby".

We arrive back at my Jeep as I open the passenger door for Callie as she holds me close to her as I hear her say "Arizona, this night has been so wonderful I don't know if I want it to end". I release the grip I have on her waist as I kiss her ever so softly and say "It does not have to Calliope if we do not want it too" as now she is the one giving me feathery kisses on my lips as she brushes her tongue over my bottom lip and I breathe an extra sigh of relief as I take her mouth into mine. I place Calliope safely in the passenger seat as I drive one final place before our night comes to a close. We pull up at the all night diner she took me to a couple of weeks ago as I say to her "I have been thinking about their fresh apple pie all night so I thought we could stop here for dessert". Then Callie looks at me with that grin I am falling in love with on her as she says "I have a special dessert that you can try after we return home, if you want too and are still up for it that is" I say without any hesitation in my voice and with a huge smile on my face "Yes please".

With Callie's flirtatious mood all evening getting more and more bolder as she is grinding against me as I stand at the register paying the bill, when we finally reach my vehicle she gently tosses me up against my Jeep as her hot…hot breath is covering my neck as she speaks to me and she says "Arizona, you are so fuckin' hot so much so that I could eat you alive right here" then she plunges her tongue down my throat as she moves her thigh in between my legs so she can begin to cause some friction between us. "Calliope…Callie…Callie…Baby" I practically scream at her as I pull away form her and say "Baby, please let's take this home because I too think you are so fuckin' hot and I too want to eat you alive but I think that the parking lot of an all night diner may attract some unwanted attention alright" as Callie takes the keys out of my hand and says "Alright baby, but I'm driving 'cause if I don't then I cannot be responsible for what my hands will do to you on the drive home". Callie opens the door for me to enter the passenger side of my vehicle as she dips her head inside to kiss me intensely again as each of our tongues explore the insides of each others mouths and when the kiss breaks I hear Callie says "So fuckin' hot, baby" as I smile to myself thinking the same thing of her as we drive home.

The next month or so includes some sexy times in on-call rooms while working, switching back and forth to each others place of residence and then the Friday night at the end of May, we both have the Memorial Day weekend off, at a secret rendezvous place that Callie picks as our second date. Callie texts me to wear something casual but very warm and that she will pick me up at my place around six pm. It is still rather on the cool side here in Seattle at the end of May so after spending most of the afternoon trying to decide what to where for our second date. I choose my favorite pair of blue jeans along with a dark blue turtleneck and my Boston Red Sox sweater underneath my dressy black leather jacket and a simple scarf. I hear the roar of a motorcycle as I figure the neighbors down the street are returning home from their usual evening bike ride as the doorbell rings and I answer the door as Calliope is standing on the other side in what appears to be her signature leather jacket as she is dressed perfectly for our second date. Callie has a large shopping bag in her hand as she enters my home as she sets the bag down by the front door and walks towards me. She takes me in her arms as she says very sexily "How's my girl this evening? You ready to see Seattle…the true Seattle for the first time"? As she kisses me deeply and unzips my leather jacket to hold me closer to her body and then says "But first, I've a present for you".

Callie takes off my leather jacket as she hands me the shopping bag and says "I found these while I was out today and wanted to buy it for you. I don't want to ruin your nice leather jacket tonight so I bought you a present…actually two presents". Callie holds the bag for me as I pull both presents from the bag to find a new leather jacket that is a little shorter than the one I own and a motorcycle helmet with the Boston Red Sox logo airbrushed on both sides and the initials A.R. across the back of the helmet. I stand there for a minute as I am speechless at first but then I begin to speak as I say to Callie "You found this today" as I hold up the helmet as I say to her "Thank you so much for presents but what's all this for baby"? Callie takes the helmet from my hand as she then guides the new leather jacket through my arms and around my back and shoulders as she then faces me and zips up my new jacket as she says "I want to show you Seattle by way of land, sea and air and I do not want to ruin your favorite jacket in the process". Then Callie reaches inside the helmet to pull out a pair of goggles as she places my hair inside my scarf and puts the goggles over my eyes and around the back of my head as she then places the motorcycle helmet on my head as I flinch a little and say "Callie, I have never ridden on a motorcycle before…I'm just a little scared". Callie holds me close and places a reassuring kiss on my lips as she says "Do you trust me, Arizona" as I kiss her back and say "With my life Calliope".

We walk out of my home and I see the most beautiful motorcycle in the world as Callie says to me "Arizona, I would like you to meet Rosa. She is my pride and joy. She is a 2009 Harley Davidson Softail Deluxe and her color is Red Hot Sunglow just like my Latin heritage". Callie escorts me to Rosa as she straddles her motorcycle first and then extends her hand to help me straddle Rosa too. Once I am settled in behind her Callie takes my hands and wraps them around her waist as she says me "Keep you arms and hands wrapped around my waist at all times and hold on tight. If you feel I am going to fast then just tell me as each of our helmets are fitted with microphones so we may communicate with one another, alright" as I tell her "Yes and thank you". Callie kicks up the kick stand as she then pushes a button with her right thumb as I hear the motorcycle between my legs begin to roar as she says to me "Are you ready, Arizona" as I tell her "Yes baby I am ready" and give her mid section as little squeeze and we are off. It is a beautiful night for a bike ride as Callie rides through the city as she is being extra careful not to scare me on my first bike ride. After about forty minutes of riding around the city, Callie stops and parks her Rosa at the marina parking lot as we both exit the motorcycle and walk towards a boat that is all lit up as a gentleman says "Dr. Torres, it is so nice to see you again and welcome aboard". Callie then says to the gentleman "Why thank you Emilio as it is good to see you again too. Emilio this is my good friend Dr. Arizona Robbins, Arizona this is Emilio the boat's captain". I extend my hand to Emilio as he takes my hand to help me board the boat as he kisses the back of my hand and I say "It is a pleasure to meet you, Emilio" as he states "The pleasure is all mine, Dr. Robbins" and I say to him "It's Arizona, please".

Emilio takes both of our helmets as Callie unzips my jacket and removes it off my body as I do the same to her and Emilio takes our jackets with him to the wheelhouse. Then another gentleman comes up from the galley to say "Hello Dr. Callie" as Callie introduces Samuel to me and Samuel seats the two of us at a table that is adorned by candlelight. Samuel plates a salad in front of Callie and me as he fills the two wine glasses in front of us with ice water in one glass and wine in the other glass. Samuel begins to tell us the menu for dinner tonight as he says "Dr. Callie and Dr. Arizona, the chef has prepared for the two of you tonight pan seared Chilean Sea Bass that is cooked in olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper as the bass is basted with a basting oil that consists of different herbs and spices along with some unsalted butter. The chef has plated the sea bass with spicy arietta mushrooms and a cheesy polenta. But first please enjoy this house salad created by our chef. As for the wine this evening, Dr. Callie the chef has chosen for you a red wine, a Rose of Malbec, and for you Dr. Arizona the chef has chosen a white wine for you, a Torrontes. Please begin with your salad and whenever you are ready the chef will serve you personally".

Callie and I enjoy a very romantic dinner as the captain pilots the boat to take us around the night lights of Seattle. Callie talks about the different points of interest that we are seeing on our journey. This is a magnificent way to view the city in my opinion as I listen to Callie describe all the landmarks that we are seeing that makes this city of Seattle unique. Samuel comes to clear the table of our dishes as Callie says "Baby, why don't you go and see the view from the captain's wheelhouse as I go and tell the chef and his staff thank you for a delicious meal tonight". Callie pulls out my chair as she takes my hand to elevate me from my seat as she tenderly kiss my lips on my way upwards and she walks me part way to the wheelhouse. Once inside the captain's main part of the boat Emilio says hello again. I greet him with a nod and a smile purposely showing off my dimples. Emilio begins to discuss exactly where they are as it pertains to the city as he stops suddenly to say to me "You must mean a great deal to Dr. Callie, Dr. Arizona" as I smile and say "How so, Emilio" he continues to say "Dr. Callie only comes on this boat when her family is in town. She has never once asked for the boat for her own personal use until tonight, ma'am. You must be a very special person in her life". I place a gentle kiss on Emilio's cheek as I say to him "Than you, Emilio" as I wander towards the front of the boat and lean against the railing to get a better view if this beautiful city.

Soon I feel a strong pair of hands and arms encircling my waist as I am being pulled back into the chest of Callie as she whispers in my ear "Are you having a good time, Arizona"? I turn to face Callie as she covers my mouth with hers and kisses me deeply. When the kiss finally breaks I whisper back to her "I am having a marvelous time, Callie" as I notice that no one is around and the boat has docked as I kiss her back with all the passion that I possess. Callie retrieves our helmets and jackets from Emilio as we both wish all of the gentlemen on the boat a good night. As Callie and I straddle the motorcycle again I am thinking to myself that this has been one extraordinary second date but much to my surprise this motorcycle ride and this romantic dinner is only the beginning of our second date. Callie drives the motorcycle to the base of the Space Needle as she tosses the valet her key and instructs him "Park it away from any other vehicle and do not put a scratch on it, got it" as the nervous valet says "Yes…Yes ma'am". Callie and I walk towards the elevator as I jokingly say "Why Dr. Torres, that was very "butch" of you, don't you think" as the elevator door opens and we find ourselves the only ones on the elevator as Callie pushes me up against the back of the elevator to say "Baby, I can be as "butch" as you want me to be" as she kisses me hard and with a purpose. Callie breaks the kiss as she is standing in front of me breathing ever so heavily as I say "Calliope" and I kiss her back just as hard as out tongues slide amongst each others as I take Callie's tongue and suck hard on it until we hear the dinging of the elevator bell and break the kiss. We both regain our composure as other guests enter the elevator and we all ride to the top of the Space Needle.

Callie and I share two different signature desserts from the restaurant menu as Callie just has a glass of ice water but I have a glass of the house dessert wine. A the restaurant spins around the city and Callie continues to be my tour guide as she show me again all the landmarks of Seattle from the air just as she did from the sea earlier this evening. When we both finish tasting each others desserts as I notice that I only have one sip of wine left as Callie has only one sip of water left I raise my wine glass to propose a toast as I say to my gorgeous date "Calliope, I just want to thank you for a glorious and wonderful evening tonight. You have shown me this beautiful and magnificent city from the land, sea and air like you said you would and I have had the time of my life tonight so for that I say thank you. You are a very special person in my life and I just thought you should know that". We cling our glasses together and take the last sip of our drinks as Callie smiles at me. She then rises from her seat to walk over to mine as she once again pulls my seat out and places her hand in mine as I stand. She then places my arm in hers as we make our way out of the restaurant. On our way to the elevator Callie says to me "I just want you to know Arizona that you are very special to me too and we have one more stop to make before we say our goodnights to each other".

Callie and I travel to a wooded area of Seattle as she parks the motorcycle next to a silver streamline trailer with a wooden deck. She kisses me as she leaves me leaning against her motorcycle as she says "Wait right here but first give me your helmet and jacket" as I am taking off my new jacket I hand her my new helmet too and then I say "Maybe I should just keep the jacket on 'cause its pretty chilly out here in the cool night air" Callie takes the items from me, as she smiles that certain smile that I am still falling in love with, and says to me "Don't you worry about the cool night air Arizona, I plan on keeping you very warm tonight". Callie then disappears inside the trailer with the items she asked for and returns to me carrying two sleeping bags. "Whoa baby, I hate camping and I am not going to sleep on this hard cold ground when you obviously have a trailer, with a bed I'm hoping inside, sitting right here" I say to Callie upon her return to me as she stands before laughing her ass off. "I'm sorry…I'm sorry for laughing Arizona but do you think after a wonderfully fantastic second date that we have shared tonight that I would end it by the two of us sleeping outside, where there are many, many bugs, on the hard cold ground. You underestimate me, Arizona. Now take my hand and follow me for about thirty yards and I will show you something so beautiful you will not believe your eyes. So do you trust me, Arizona"? Callie hand is being held out for me as I grasp a hold of her hand in mine and say to her again tonight "With my life, Callie".

Callie and I walk the thirty yards or so to find an amazing overlook that enhances the city of Seattle below as well as an extended chaise lounge chair large enough for two. Callie zips one end of each sleeping bag together as she drapes part of one of the sleeping bag over the chaise lounge chair as she places her body down and says to me "Care to join me, Arizona" as I move swiftly to lay on her body as she engulfs both of our bodies under the two sleeping bags wrapping them securely over us and then she whispers in my ear "Now sit back and watch the show as the northern lights begin to dance for us tonight" as she points out into the midnight sky. With Callie's right arm around my shoulders and my head resting on her chest, the illumination in the northern sky begins. With both of us exchanging "Ohhh's and Ahhh's" for the next half hour or so, I move my face so that my chin is resting on Callie's blouse right above her left breast as I look into her eyes and she turns her head to look down at me as I say "Thank you for tonight. Everything you have done for me has been so wonderful and thoughtful that I can honestly say without question, that this has been the most perfect date I have ever been on in my life". I then crane my neck upwards to place a kiss on Callie's lips and then I confess to her "I could so fall in love with you, Callie Torres…what am I saying…I am falling in love with you Calliope Torres". I wait for a few moments as Callie says nothing and just when I am about to apologize for what I have just said Callie says to me "Arizona, I know that we've only known each other for a couple of months and this is only our second date but I feel the same way you do…I am falling in love with you too".

I slide my body over Callie's as our breathing becomes more rapid as I say to her in my most sexiest voice "Then kiss me like you mean it". Callie devours my mouth into hers as we begin to make mad, passionate love under the northern lights. We both carefully strip each other of our clothes as I place them over the top of the lounge chair as our boots find their way to the ground at the foot of the chaise lounge chair. We are both completely naked under the sleeping bags as Callie and I help our fingers find their way inside each other as Callie is kneading my right breast with her left hand as her very…very talented mouth is sucking on my left breast. My back is arching upward to give Callie a better vantage point with my boobs as she is sucking my boob so hard that when she releases my boob she makes a very loud popping sound as we both chuckle as we realize that no one can hear us out here in the woods. I am grinding my fingers into her so hard and fast as she is doing the same to me as we both are about to reach our orgasms as we scream each others names into the darkness. We lie in each others arms for a moment to catch our breath as I snuggle closer into Callie's arms as I kiss all up and down her neck.

Callie is nudging me awake as we both have fallen asleep on the lounge chair as I hear a slight knocking noise on the outside of the sleeping bag. Callie pulls the top of the sleeping bag back as water begins to hit us in our faces. Callie pulls that sleeping bag back over our heads as she says "Baby, it is starting to rain. We need to run back to the trailer and fast". Just as Callie was about to move I say to her "But baby, what about our clothes and shoes"? Callie then says "You grab our shoes and I'll grab our clothes. You take a hold of the edge of the sleeping bag like this and I will grab the other side and we will use it like an umbrella, alright" as she kisses me and I say "I'll be ready to run when you are Callie". But the best laid plans of mice and men do not always go as planned. We both jump up from the lounge chair as I grab our boots and Callie grabs our clothing but then somewhere along the way to the trailer our footing comes undone as we both slip and slide on our way back to the trailer as the ground beneath our feet becomes wet and mushy. We both fall several times but the sleeping bags cushion our fall and this causes us to start laughing hysterically at the two of us. Once we reach the deck we toss the sleeping bags over the motorcycle to try to alleviate any further moisture from the rain staying on the bike.

We walk into the trailer as I place our boots upside down just in case they retrieved any water as Callie places our clothes on the table as she began to hang them on the backs of the kitchen chairs. We turn to face each other as we both see we have mud and grass all over our bodies and some twigs in our hair. Callie says wearing a sly smile on her face "There is a garden hose outside. I guess we could spray each other off and then dry off and climb into bed to stay warm so we don't catch pneumonia". I laugh a little as I say to Callie "We do not tell anyone about this because I can just see both of Mark and Karev's heads exploding right in front of us if they hear that we sprayed each other off with a garden hose and we were completely naked". Callie laughs too as she says "You make it sound like we are in some sort of porn movie" as she laughs again thinking about Mark and Alex and their heads exploding as she says "I see what you mean". Callie begins spraying off my body and my hair as she stands there directing me to turn and bend over from time to time as she is clearly enjoying what she is doing to me. Then it is my turn to return the favor as I am getting quite turned on by the water glistening off her body in the moonlight as she bends down in front of me and I spray the water into her hair as I remove the remaining twigs from her hair. Then I step back so she may stand upright and toss her hair backwards so that it lands back between her shoulders blades as I softly say to myself "Porn movie…indeed".

We re-enter the trailer as we both begin to towel ourselves off. I am bent downward drying off my feet and legs as Callie is slightly bent forward drying off her mid section and one of her nipples brushes my cheek. I take this opportunity to place my mouth over her nipple as I straighten us both up to suck on her breast as I palm her other breast and gently caress the boob under the palm of my hand. I hear Callie softly whisper "Arizona" as I slowly walk her backwards until the backs of her knees come in contact with the large, soft bed. As we tumble back onto the bed, I never relinquish the hold my mouth has on her boob as I continue to suck on her nipple. Callie's moaning under me is quickly becoming a turn on as I slide down her body and my other hand takes a hold of her boob that I was just sucking on as I kiss her hairline right above where I find her intoxicating scent. Callie swiftly bends her legs up at the knees to give me better access to where she wants me to be right now. I dip my tongue in first as Callie's body begins to respond to my touch as I say to her "You smell amazing, baby" as Callie moans back to me "Baby please" as I know the time is just right for me to continue. I begin by sucking on her engorged clit as I flick my tongue over it too as I have come to know this drives Callie crazy. Then I remove my right hand from her boob as I place three of my fingers deep inside her as I thrust in and out of her while I am still sucking and flicking her clit with my tongue. Callie begins screaming my name as she tightens her grip on the sides of the bed then as I feel the walls of her vagina closing in on me and with one more flick of my tongue over her clit, she is spent.

I kiss my way back up Callie's body as I place a very well deserved kiss on her lips as she moans because she tastes herself on my mouth. Callie's breathing is beginning to return to normal as she wraps me in her arms and tells me she loves me. I am lying comfortably in Callie's arms as I nuzzle my face into her neck as I begin sucking and kissing her neck and that patch of skin behind her ear that she so loves me doing. I feel her fingertips trailing all over my skin as she begins to leave a trail of goose bumps in her wake. Callie rises above me on all fours as she hovers over me and continues to trail her fingertips all over my exposed skin. Then she begins placing some very light feathery kisses all over my lips, my neck and the skin just above my breasts as she whispers "You are so beautiful, Arizona as I could do this for the rest of my life" as she now kisses me with all the passion she has right at this very moment. Callie moves her body onto mine as she separates my legs open with her lower torso and begins to move up and down as her curly pubic hairs mix with mine as she builds up some friction between the two of us. Callie intertwine our fingers together as she spreads our hands off to the side of the bed so she may gain better access to my neck and chest as she places some hard kisses and sucking motion as she also leaves some light bite marks all over my uncovered skin as I moan her name over and over. Then without warning she dives under the covers and begins to run her tongue deep inside me as all I hear is her moaning and then I feel her fingers making there way inside me as all of this is driving me absolutely crazy.

Between Callie's moaning and as she is about to bring me to an orgasm, I hear her shout "You're almost there Arizona, come for me baby…I know you want to because I can feel it coming…come for me baby…come on baby" and just like that I do…I come for her. Callie's mouth covers mine in another sensual kiss as now I taste myself on her lips. When the kiss breaks Callie says to me as she holds me close to her "We both taste good, don't we" as I say to her "We sure do, baby". Then after we regain our strength again, we bring ourselves to a few more orgasms each until sleep takes over our bodies. With the smell of sex inside and the smell of the woods emanating from outside along with the sunshine trying to peer in to the windows, it is the sound of a few squirrels crawling across the roof of the trailer that actually wake me up this morning. I find myself cocooned in the arms of my girlfriend as she is still sleeping and does not hear the ruckus above us that I find it astonishing to say the least. I guess I never really noticed how much of a sound sleeper she was before until this morning. I softly pepper her face with kisses but it is not until I place a passionate kiss on her lips as I use my tongue to separates her lips as it delves into her mouth that Callie becomes truly awake by my kiss. Callie rolls me onto my back deepening the kiss that she now hears our furry friends on top of the roof as she says sternly "What the fuck is that noise"?

After calming Callie down about our friends, the squirrels, running amuck on the trailer roof, we make love to each other again and again. We lay in each others arms as the new tenants leave our rooftop and we are in complete silence. I turn on my side to look at my new girlfriend, as I begin to hear both of our stomachs growling, I say to her "Baby, do you want to go and get some breakfast somewhere"? Callie turns on to her side to look into my eyes as she kisses me softly and purrs "I would love too, Arizona". While we are getting dressed and cleaning up after ourselves, placing the trailer in the same condition as we found it, Callie and I take the sleeping bags off the motorcycle as we drape them over the clothes line to dry as we are chuckling a little bit about last nights antics. Mounting the motorcycle and placing our helmets on our heads I say into the microphone to Callie "Code of silence right, Calliope" as she turns her head and smiles back at me to say "Code of Silence, Arizona". As we both remember last night and the porn movie playing in my head as I squeeze her tight around her waist and we head off for breakfast. Over breakfast we talk about spending the rest of the weekend together as Callie suggests we stay at one of the fine resorts for the weekend since it is still too chilly for the beach. We search the internet with our phones and find the perfect resort as we make all the arrangements.

Callie drops me off at my home first as she kisses me ever so deeply goodbye as I tell her that I will pick her up in a couple of hours as we decide to take my Jeep to the Suncadia Resort. I quickly shower and change my clothes and then pack a bag for the weekend. The resort is less than a hundred miles east of Seattle so if there is an emergency at the hospital we can be back within a couple of hours. But I have trust and faith in the pediatric surgeons under me at Seattle Grace that everything will be fine. I text Dr. Bailey, Dr. Karev and Dr. Webber to tell them of my plans for the weekend and how they can get in touch with me if they need to as I also text Callie to tell her what I have done and that I will pick her up in twenty minutes.

Callie is waiting outside her apartment when I drive up as she tosses her bag into the backseat and jumps into the passenger seat. She kisses me quickly on the lips as she screams a little "Let's go, babe". Callie is telling me and showing me a short cut to get on I-90 East as we travel to the resort and spa. Callie is reading off the amenities and about the spa from the brochure that she downloaded from the resort's website. She is telling me all about the different recreation activities the resort has to offer as she then says in her very sexy voice "That is if we ever get out of the luscious king-size bed in our room, Arizona" as I smile and say "Oh Calliope, you sweet talker you". Callie tries to show me the pictures from the brochure as I say to her "Baby, I'm driving" and she says "Sorry…sorry…just a little excited". After a few moments of silence as I am concentrating on my driving and looking for a rest area because I forgot to pee before I left home and with Callie being ready when I arrived at her home, the thought slipped my mind. My phone that is resting on the docking station on my Jeep's dashboard begins to ring as I look over to see the word "Mama" flashing as I hit the talk button and say "Hello mama and good afternoon" as she is calling three hours ahead of where I am as I hear her say back to me "Hello sweetie, and how are you today"? I see Callie snicker a bit at my mother's southern accent as I say "Fine mama, and how are all of you doing"? My mother, Barbara Robbins, laughs again with that southern twang as she tells me "Well the three children that I am raising alone have left me for an afternoon game at Fenway Park as the Red Sox are home for the Memorial Day weekend and it is fleet week"? I look over at Callie as she mouths the words "Fleet week" as I whisper to her "I tell you later". Barbara Robbins' keen sense of hearing is in full swing as she says "Who are you talking too, Arizona" as I say "Mom, Callie's in the Jeep with me. We are going away for the weekend". My mother then says "Well hello Callie, nice to talk with you again and how are you my dear"? Callie says "Just fine, ma'am"?

My mother keeps Callie and me on the phone as she talks about me coming to Boston next month and of the birthday arrangements that her and my father have set up for the twins. The twins are celebrating their tenth birthday on the 15th of June. She also wants to discuss the court appearance for signing for full custody of the twins on the 11th of June. And about my father as well as my niece and nephew going to the ball game and explains to Callie what fleet week is as she says that the three of them left her alone because today is her day to host her monthly gardening meeting with her girlfriends. As my mother puts it "Your father along with Timmy and Dani would rather go and enjoy themselves without me today". Both Callie and I laugh a little as I shake my head no then I say to my mother "Well mama, I would love to sit and chat with you all the way to the resort Callie and I are going too but I have to make a pit stop as I have to use the restroom now that I have found a rest area. I will call you in a couple of days to tell you of my flight. Please tell daddy, Timmy and Dani I love them and will see them soon and I love you too mama". Callie shouts out to my mother "Nice talking with you again, Mrs. Robbins". My mother ends by telling me she loves me and telling Callie goodbye and it was nice to talk to her as she tells Callie "It's Barbara, my dear Callie. Since you are going away for the weekend with my daughter, it's Barbara".

Arizona has gone into the rest area to use the facilities when her phone rings again and I touch the screen to say "Why hello again, Barbara. Arizona went to use the rest room. Is there anything I can do for you"? Barbara replies "Why yes there is Callie. First off Arizona's father and I would like to know what your intentions are with our daughter and secondly how is our plan progressing"?
