Chapter 3
Callie's P.O.V.
I am SO glad I had the door to support me when I looked at the blonde beauty waiting by the door.
The sight of Arizona in her shorts has left me drooling. Those legs have a magnetic energy that draw my eyes towards them every few seconds. I think Arizona even caught me looking at her twice.
I am all ready with the drinks and the food. Arizona is drinking white wine. I just have this urge to go around her and drop my red wine all over her white top. Bad Callie.
I shake my head to get rid any such thoughts .I have this deep feeling to memorize everything she likes. And I want to know more, so I quickly take the food to the table and begin to place it everybody's plate. The conversation is light. Arizona tells us why she shifted to Seattle and I just Thank God again for that. What is happening to me?!
'So what do you do Arizona? Where are you working?', I finally ask
'I don't have a job yet. I just left everything I had so suddenly that I didn't get to plan my next move. I am quite impulsive but I figured I need to look harder if I want to survive. Back in Chicago I was a counsellor for children and students.'
'Oh really? That's quite interesting. It might be nice to be around kids all day.' I could picture her as a kid, holding a baby in her hand. I smile at that thought.
'Yes it is. Even as a child, I was very good with them. I used to work as a nanny at a very young age. I had this unspoken connection with some kids and they just listened to everything I said. I figured that it was a strong suit. Plus I get to learn a lot from them. After every session I have with a kid I feel like I have grown.
'I know what you mean. I think the students teach us how to teach. It is a lovely way to learn. I remember how on my first day to work I had taken chocolates for the students, just to win them. I failed obviously.'
'You wouldn't need to try to win someone. You would already have them', she said. She looked at me with those gorgeous eyes and I can't help staring at her.
'Is that right? I suppose you never tried either in that case?'
'Oh I did, I bought a pair of heeleys and I sure did get eyes on me.' When she said it that way it just made me a little jealous.
'Heeleys Arizona?', I ask with a raised eyebrow.
'What?! You should watch me roll, I am good at it! I bet you are. Oh God! I need a distraction from these dirty thoughts.
Alex chokes on his drink when she said that and it is as if we finally realize that we aren't the only ones in this room. I like Cristina and Alex. They never interrupt.
'And your mother lets you wear them?', I ask jokingly.
'Oh she hates them. I do get scolded every now and then but my brother and my father support me. You should meet them sometime. They would love you!', she says without thinking. She makes a wide eyed face and I just laugh at how adorable she is. I feel so attracted to her, but that is a problem for me. I am too messed up at the moment to get into anything.
'Yes that is would be nice Arizona!', I tell her and smile at her. She looks at me and we have started staring at each other AGAIN.
'Ughhh! Enough of this. Let's dance!', Cristina breaks the bubble. Without getting a response, she goes up and places a song on my ipod. She begins to dance as she always does after a dozen shots of tequila. Arizona looks at me with confusion and I just shrug at her. I take her by the hand and take her to the corner of my room and we both start dancing. This time I caught her staring at me several times. I know I can dance pretty well, I am quite hot. But when she looks at me like that it just makes her hotter.
There is no sign of Alex and we figured that he just left. After a crazy dance session we are all pretty tired and quickly move to sit on the couch. Cristina goes straight to her room and shuts the door without saying anything.
'Just ignore her. She never announced her arrival or her departure', I say at Arizona's amused look.
'Callie… I'm sorry for last night. I had no idea that you weren't the one who was playing the guitar. I was just so tired and….'
'Don't worry about it Arizona. I know you meant no insult.'
'You know, I heard a lot about your music and I was hoping that you could play me something for me.'
I was nervous at first by her demand but then I pushed those thoughts back. I never get nervous, but I just wanted to impress Arizona. I walked across the room and picked up on my acoustic guitar and began playing.
Arizona's P.O.V.
The minute Callie began to sing, I got goosebumps on my hand. All those things Alex said about her music, were true. Her voice was deep and smooth. And her beats matched those of my heart.
Everybody's selling something
Wanting more than what they have and
Haven't got the sight of sense
To sense what's really going round
And no one wants to tell the truth
We'll fight to know the rules
That tell us to be good enough
And no one knows
that you and I,
baby we see eye to eye
She was looking right into my eyes. Not staring aimlessly. But looking at them as if she could see through me and into my soul. I closed my eyes and I could feel myself at a different surrounding. It was a soft soothing song and I drifted along with it.
Oh how I wish I could wake up to her music every morning and drift to sleep with her humming in my ear. Yeah! In your dreams Arizona.
After the song ended I had no words to tell her how beautiful it was. So I just went and hugged her. She didn't look surprised, she only returned the hug and then smiled at me.
'Calliope that was amazing!'
'Wait…how do you know my name?'
'It is written behind that picture of you and your sister on the stand'
'Thank you', she said with a genuine smile.
We looked at each other and then at our hands which were still linked. I quickly cleared my throat and checked the time.
'I should go now. It's late. Thank you for the lovely dinner Calliope.'
'It was my pleasure Arizona. Good night.'
'Good night.'
Oh yeah! It was a good night :)
