Chapter 3:
Callie's POV
I have been sitting here for almost 3 hours and it is just now hitting me that my family turned there back on me and told me that I could never come back until I become the Calliope that they "raised", whatever that means. I know that I am only 17 but I can't go back to pretending to be someone I'm not anymore. I still can't believe I stood up at the dinner table and blurted out I'M GAY when I was asked to pass the bread! Ugh, I have no idea what I'm going to do. I didn't realize I was crying until I heard that beautiful voice say, "Excuse me, is everything ok?"
Arizona's POV
I don't know how long it has been but it feels like years since I spoke and she jerked up her head and I saw those amazing heart stopping brown eyes with tears in them. She hasn't said a word to me yet. As I just stare back I finally clear my throat and try again, "Are you ok?" When she just continues to stare I move to sit down next to her and introduce myself.
"Hi I'm Arizona. I know we don't know each other but I have seen you here almost everyday and I just wanted to make sure that you were ok. If you want to talk I'm a super listener. If not we can just sit here and wait for the bus together quietly and pretend I didn't say anything."
Callie's POV
When I notice her moving to sit down next to me my heart starts racing. OMG she is talking to me. When she stops I look up at her and barely say, "Hi I'm Callie." I don't know what else to say but I realized that the bus could be here any minute and this could be my only chance to say something to her. But what should I say? I can't tell her that I think she is the most beautiful person I have ever seen. So I guess I will just tell her about what happened tonight.
"My parents and I got into a huge fight and they told me to leave and to not come back until I can be who they want me to be. So, now I have no where to go. I have no friends so I can't stay with any of them and I'm pretty sure my parents called the rest of the family and told them. I have no clothes, hardly any money, and no anything. I don't know what I'm going to do." When I realized I said all of that my eyes get huge and I can feel my face heat up and I'm pretty sure that it is red as a tomato. I hear her move a little and I turn to her.
Arizona's POV
As I hear all that comes out of her sad but beautiful mouth I feel my eyebrows get higher and higher because I am so shocked at what I'm hearing. This poor girl is alone. Her whole family has abandoned her and she has no one else to turn to be there for her. I give her a small smile and tell her, "Give me one second." She just looks at me and nods and looks back down at her hands. I reach in my pocket and pull out my phone and get up from the bus bench and walk a little way away so that she can't hear me.
As I start to look up my moms' number I pause before I press call. All I can hope is that they can say yes. I don't want to even think about what could happen to her if they don't say it's ok. When I finally hear my mom she says, "Arizona are you there?"
Here goes nothing, "Yea mom, I'm here but umm I am at the bus stop and you know that girl I mentioned to you the other day? Well she is here at the bus stop and she just looked so sad and when I asked her what was wrong and she told me that her parents kicked her out and she has no where to go. I didn't know what else to do. Is it ok if she stays with us for a little bit? I can't just leave her here. Something could happen to her."
As I hang up the phone and start walking to her I can feel my face break out into this huge smile. When I reach the bench I smile wider and say, "Umm I know that this is weird and you don't know me at all but, if you want to stay at my house for a bit if you want that is you can. My parents said it was ok with them and you would have your own bedroom and you can ride the bus home with me and eat dinner with us and we can figure it all out."
I see her think it over for a minute and she smiles a little bit and that makes me smile and say," So, what do you say?"
