Hey,guys! A lot have seemed to be really interested in this, and I know how much it sucks to be completely into story, only for the author to take months to post their next chapter. Therefore, I wanted to give you guys the next chapter as soon as possible. Now to address some concerns, yes, this story is a little different for the Calzona fandom; I'm going for diversity here, if the plot is off putting to you, simply do not read it. A mom hooking up with a high schooler.. Believe me, I understand the concern, but Arizona is going to be an adult before anything happens, so there's nothing illegal about it. Just two adults, falling in love. Which should never be seen as "off putting" Enough of my rant, lol sorry guys. I've been asked Callie's age, and that will be addressed in this chapter because some of it will be through Callie's perspective. Thanks for the support you all, it's been extremely encouraging. Happy reading,guys :)
Callie's Pov
"Oh my god. What have I done?" I continued to mutter to myself as I pace back, and forth throughout the kitchen. Eventually, an extremely vital piece of information came to me: I didn't offer to sleep with her, or go out with her. We're just watching a few movies, and she's probably straight! Nothing dirty about it. Although, that still couldn't stop the thoughts of the beautifully dimpled blonde sprinting through my head.
One day, only one day has passed since Sofia's friends were over, and it feels like an eternity away from the blonde. I don't understand where all these controversial thoughts are coming from, I've never had a thing for younger women, but there's just something about Arizona. I'm 36 years old, I don't have time to be focussing all my efforts on a young girl.
"Sof! Can you come downstairs for a minute?" I hear her grumble, and start to make her way downstairs. She walks up to me, hair a mess, and looks at me like I ruined all of her hopes and dreams by waking her up.
"Hey Sofia, listen. You know how we're going to the beach in a few weeks?" Sofia squints her eyes and nods,"So maybe you would like to invite a friend? Is there a special occasion coming up that could be used as an excuse, so your other friends won't get hurt when you don't ask them instead?"
Sofia furrows her brows, I can tell she's taking this decision much too seriously. "Well Arizona's birthday is coming up, and I know she loves the beach. Can we invite her?" I slowly nod, I certainly didn't think about the consequences of having to see Arizona in a bathing suit..
"Yeah, Sof. That's fine. How old is she gonna be?" Sofia opened her mouth to say something before she gasped and covered her hand with her mouth. "Sof. Are you alright?"
"Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. I forgot her birthday! It's tomorrow. It's gonna be her 18th birthday,and I forgot! Oh my god. I'm terrible" Before I can offer any words of comfort,Sofia is already halfway up the steps to her room. I let out a chuckle, and then a sigh of relief. Arizona is going to be 18 tomorrow. She won't be a child, or a teenager, she's going to be an adult. She is still much younger than I, and Sofia's friend;therefore, I will not act on these feelings, I just won't feel guilty about having them because she's going to be an adult in less than 24 hours.
Arizona Pov
Well, the big day is here, and yet I feel absolutely no different from the way I felt yesterday. I still like pizza, still hate sandwiches, still love heely's, and still have a crush on Sofia's mother.
Yesterday was quite comical. Sofia showed up at my house, looking like she just rolled out of bed with a present in her hands. I opened it up, and it was a blue bikini, and next to it was a post it note. On the paper it said, "Dearest Arizona, will you do me the honor of coming on vacation with me?" I grinned and thanked her before giving her a hug. She's become such a good friend, and I'm so glad I have gotten to know her.
And here's where my day started getting a little insane. I invited her into my house to hang out for a bit, and while I was turning, I tripped over the carpet and landed on my shoulder with quite force.
"Oh fuck!" I yelled out as I heard a very concerning noise that should never come from a body. Sofia recovered quickly from her shock, and ran over to me. She was muttering curse words as she tried to help me up.
"Arizona. We gotta get you to the hospital. Here" She draped my good arm around her shoulder to give me support as we hobbled out to her car. "We should be able to get you in quickly, my mom is working today. Unless she has a surgery, we'll be first priority." I gulped, Sofia's mom was going to see me like this.
As we enter the hospital, Sofia doesn't even go to check in with the nurses station. She had me take a seat while she took matters into her own hands. Her and I are a lot alike in the fact that when we have our minds set to something, we get it done. I watch her as she waltzes over to an intern working. I listen to the conversation.
"Hey, I need you to page 911 for me. Send her to the lobby." She begins to walk back towards me, she happens to glance over her shoulder at the doctor, who has yet to page her mother. "NOW!" The intern jumped a little before proceeding to page Callie.
Sofia comes and sits by me. I let out a chuckle. "Thank you,Sof, but that wasn't necessary. I probably could've just had my brother pop my shoulder back in. I think I just dislocated it." My shoulder still hurt like a bitch, but I'm one tough cookie... At least when it comes to showing off for Callie Torres.
"Nonsense"Sofia looks at me and pats my leg. "She knows what she's doing. Your brother would probably just end up hurting your shoulder more." I nod in agreement, she was completely right.
Callie bursts through the doors, and strides over to the intern. "You paged 911?" The man turns and points over to us. sees Sofia and rushes over to see what was wrong. She seems to acknowledge there was absolutely nothing wrong with Sofia, and turns her attention to me.
"What happened?" She put her hands on her hips, and looks at Sofia. "I was paged 911... There's nothing urgent going on here, it would appear." I could tell was getting annoyed because neither of us were in critical condition.
"Arizona dislocated her shoulder, and I knew we'd have to wait forever if you weren't paged 911.." I see Callie chuckle a little as she beckons me to stand up.
"Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I guess. That's certainly something I would do. Come on back Arizona, and I'll put that shoulder back into place for you."
We enter the exam room, and I take a seat up on the table. "You don't have to do this if you're really busy.. I'm sure an intern or something could do it." Callie walks over to wash her hands, and she looks over at me.
"Trust me. You don't want those interns anywhere near you" She chuckled and dried off her hands."Pick your poison." It took me a few moments to realize what she was saying.
"Um.. No painkillers. Thanks" Callie looked at me for a moment, while she began to take a look at my shoulder.
"Bold choice.." I nodded and gripped the table, preparing for the most intense pain I've ever felt. "You get in a fight?"
I shook my head and looked at the ground,"I tripped over carpet." Callie nodded and put her hands on my shoulder.
"Where.. At your boyfriends?"Callie asked, I let out a giggle, and shook my head. "No.. No, I'm single. And boys aren't really.. My type." Callie gripped my shoulder a little tighter,"Single,huh?" She pushed hard and then SNAP! As a reflex, my arm shot up, of course she knew that was coming, so she stopped it from coming up and hitting her. I whimpered in pain, and a few tears came out of my eyes. Fuck, that really hurt.
"It hurts less if you don't see it coming" Callie said as she walked over to where a brace was sitting for my arm. "Less... But it still hurts" I said as I looked at her. walked over to me, and began to slide the brace onto my arm. My god, she smelt amazing. Her being this close to me, certainly helped distract me from the pain. She stepped back after the cast was completely on. "All set?" I asked her. "All set." was her response.
I stood up off the table. "How long do I need to wear this for?" Callie tilted her head,"Normally, I would suggest about a week, but I can check your shoulder out on Sunday. Just to see how it's doing."
"Alright..." I look at her lab coat and see her real first name ,"Calliope.. What a beautiful name.. I'll see you Sunday. Thanks for the help" I smile and turn around to walk back out to Sofia. I hear a soft,"It's a date" come from behind me as I walked away.
Hope you guys enjoyed it :) Please R&R, it's actually a lot more encouraging than I ever expected. I want to hear from you guys.
