The next day went by slow. Callie kept wondering why Arizona would want to meet her at 10pm in the park. Why at night when they could've met earlier and spent the whole day together? Not that it was a problem to be out late for Callie, no one would notice that she left. Her mother Carmen had been having drinking problems ever since her father left them for another woman. Carmen didn't have a job but she didn't need it since her ex-husband still sent them more than enough money to survive each month. And her sister Gabriella she spent most of her time with her friends and her boyfriend. Callie ate dinner with her mother and then they watched some television together before Carmen fell asleep in the sofa. When Callie saw that the clock was 9.30 and her sister still wasn't home, she decided to go to the park to meet Arizona. It was a short stroll it took her only 10 minutes, but when she arrived to the park Arizona was already there.

''Calliope! Hi, how's your day been?'' Arizona asked when her friend sat down beside her on the bench.

''I've had a good day. How was your day?'' Callie answered.

''My day was amazing! I showed the park to my family and they just loved it. And we finished packing up, so everything is perfect in our home now. You just have to see how beautiful my room is! If you want of course.''

''Of course I want to see your room, Arizona. But can you answer this now; why did you want to meet at 10pm in the park?''

''Because of the stars!'' Arizona said like it was the most obvious thing in the world and she pointed at the stars. And Callie understood, it was always dark early in Angels City and some days you could actually see the stars really clearly and tonight was one of those nights.

''Oh, the stars. They're beautiful aren't they?'' Callie said.

''They are. I love stars,'' Arizona said before she continued ''and that's why I brought a blanket. So we can lay on this blanket and watch the stars together.''

Callie absolutely loved the idea. So that's what they did, they laid on the blanket together and looked at the stars and talked about everything and nothing.

''Tell me about your family.'' Arizona said after a while.

Callie felt that she could trust Arizona so she said ''my dad left us for another woman two years ago. My mother has had drinking problems ever since that day. So my sister Gabriella and I had to grow up fast. It's hard, but we're fighters.'' She was quiet for a few seconds before she added ''I've never told anyone that before.''

Arizona took Callie's hand and intertwined their fingers together and she looked Callie in the eyes before she said ''I'm sorry, Calliope.'' And they laid on the blanket like that for another hour before both of the girls went home to get some sleep.

The following week went by fast. Callie and Arizona spent every day together. They went to the park and to each other's homes and one day they even went to the beach. It was now Sunday afternoon and they were in the park and sat on a swing each.

''So, are you nervous about tomorrow?'' Callie asked Arizona and looked at her.

''Not so much. I have a friend already, so that makes it a lot better.'' Arizona said and smiled at Callie.

''Arizona… There's something I think you should know.''

''Okay. Tell me, Calliope'' They had known each other for only a week but they still knew that they could trust each other. And every time something was serious Arizona called her 'Calliope'. ''You know that you can trust me.''

''Do you remember that I told you that I didn't like the other girls in our class?'' Arizona nodded. ''The reason that I don't like them is that… they've bullied me ever since first grade. They've called me words and some of the guys used to hit me and stuff.''

''Oh, Calliope!'' Arizona said and gave her friend a long hug and whispered ''It's going to be okay now. You don't have to be alone anymore, okay? You have me by your side.''

''Thank you, Arizona. You're the best friend anyone could ever ask for.'' And she meant it. She didn't understand how she could feel so comfortable around Arizona after just a week, but she did.

''You know what we should do? We should buy ice cream to celebrate how good this week has been!'' Arizona said and took her friends hand.

''And that is the greatest idea you've ever had!'' Callie said and they started to run to the diner where they had the best ice cream in town.

Half an hour later both of them had had enough ice cream for the rest of the year.

''I don't think I ever want to eat again.'' Callie said as she laid on the grass next to her friend.

''Me neither. Why did I choose chocolate, strawberry AND vanilla?!'' The blonde said.

''I'm asking myself the same question. I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to get up from this lawn!'' Callie said and started to laugh and Arizona started to laugh with her.

''Do we really have to go to school tomorrow? Why can't it be summer forever?'' Arizona said.

''I agree. School sucks.'' Callie sighed.

''Preach it, sister!'' Arizona said and Callie started to laugh at the expression.

''Don't tell me that you've never heard the expression 'preach it, sister'?!'' Arizona said when she realized what Callie was laughing about.

''No, I've never heard it!'' Callie said.

''Hmm… It must be a Seattle thing then.'' Arizona said ''what do you say about that we end this amazing week with a game night at my place?''

''I say yes only if we play Monopoly!'' Callie said.

''What's a game night without Monopoly?'' Arizona answered and that meant that the girls were having a game night with Arizona's family and that turned out to be the most perfect ending of that summer.
