Seattle is getting better and better
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Grey's characters...and that pisses me off :P
So in this chapter we have their first date and a call from Addie, I thought it was about time i put her and callie having a little talk, I was going to have her come and visit but Callie has only been gone a day and that would just seem a bit weird. Also I know that in real life Callie wouldn't go to the person she met 24 hours ago to tell her about her problems but I wanted them to hang out before their date just so they know each other a little better.
Chapter 4: it's our first date Calliope.
Callie's POV
A few hours later and I felt loads better, I had just left Arizona's apartment and was scrambling around in my bag to find my key. I eventually found the key, unlocked the door and walked in. I threw my bags on the counter and headed straight to bed. Just as I was about to fall asleep I recalled the events of the night
"Calliope...what's wrong" she spoke softly to me trying not to upset me anymore than I already was
"Can I come in?" I asked hoping she would say yes.
"Of course you can Calliope" I sighed in relief, I knew we had only met yesturday but I didn't matter to me and it didn't seem to matter to her either.
We walked into her apartment and she started taking cups and bowls into the kitchen and sorting out the pillows on the sofa. She didn't have to clean for me but it was nice to know she wanted her apartment to look nice for me.
I sat down on the sofa and whipped my eyes with a tissue from my bag. She finished doing her little clean up and came to sit on the sofa next to me.
"You don't have to tell me about it if you don't want to, we could just hang out, maybe watch a movie?" She still spoke softly to me; it was obvious that she cared about me even though we had only met the night before.
"Yeah I would like that, what film were you watching before I came in?" I wanted to talk but it was too soon to start telling her all about my family problems and maybe just hanging out would make me feel better. I felt a little better when I got her, just being with Arizona makes me feel better.
"I was just about to start the hangover, it's my favourite movie" she smiled. She had to be kidding right! She liked the same movie as me, hangover is one of my favourite films ever it's so funny and there is nothing like a comedy to make you feel better.
"Ohhh I love the hangover! Can we watch that? She smiled at me again with her perfect dimples. It made me feel so much better; I knew then that even if our date on Friday didn't work out we could still be close friends.
"Yeah sure I will grab us some snacks, what do you like?"
"I like popcorn" I said politely finishing with a smile and pointing to the bag on the coffee table.
She picked up the bag and emptied the contense into a large glass bowl. She placed the bowl in-between us on the sofa and sat down. She grabbed the remote and pressed play, we sat in silence as the film started. God I love this film!
About an hour and a half later the end credits of the movie came on, I looked over to Arizona and heard a faint snoring coming from where she was lying. She had fallen asleep while watching the hangover! How does that happen! I looked over at her and noticed that she had goose bumps. I stood up and started searching for a blanket to cover her up. I didn't want to look through any of her things so I tried to find one that was lying around. Just as I was about to give up looking I noticed a baby blue coloured blanket in the corner of the room.
I grabbed the blanket and draped it over her, she looked so beautiful and peaceful, it was unreal!
I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and checked the time. 10:30. I should really get back to my apartment, but I didn't want to just leave her to wake up alone wondering where I had gone. I decided that the sensible thing to do was to wake her and tell her I had to go.
I knelt down beside her and spoke softly "Arizona, Arizona, Arizona" after a couple of seconds she stirred and slowly opened her eyes.
"Calliope? What time is it?"
"It's a little after 10:30, you fell asleep" I smiled at her as she slowly sat up on the sofa.
"I'm sorry, you were upset and I was supposed to talk to you and I fell asleep!" She looked really embarrassed but I don't know why, people fall asleep watching movies all the time and I didn't mind, being with her and watching one of my favourite movies ever had made me feel better. Then she noticed that she had a blanket over her, confused about how it got there she asked "Did you put a blanket on me?" Now it was my turn to be embarrassed.
"Yeah I did, you had Goosebumps" I smiled hoping she didn't mind that I had searched her apartment for a blanket to put on her.
"Thank you" She smiled at me, still half asleep.
"I better get going, and you should probably go to bed" I didn't really want to leave her, but I needed to get some sleep so I didn't wake up a half hour before my first class!
"Ok, Goodnight Calliope"
"Goodnight Arizona"
And with that I left the apartment.
Now I was lying in bed tossing and turning, trying desperately to get some sleep so I woke up on time. It was then that my phone rang...perfect timing!
Incoming call: Addie
Addie was calling me! I quickly sat up and answered the phone.
"Addie!"
"Hey Callie" I heard her chuckle on the other end of the phone.
"Oh my god I have soo much to tell you!"
"Well go ahead then!"
"I met a hot girl, a hot blonde girl" I heard her chuckle again at the way I emphasised on the word blonde. I don't know why I like blondes so much, I just do!
"Already Callie, you have been there like a day!"
"Yeah I met her the day I got here. I have a date with her on Friday" I smiled when I thought about going on a date with the beautiful blonde I had been with all evening.
"So...What's she like?" I could tell Addie was curious about how I could be so excited about a girl I had met the day before.
"She's awesome. She is beautiful, and kind, and helpful, and funny, and smart, and sweet...I could go on for a while!" Addie laughed at my last comment, now she knew why I was excited!
"I bet you could! She sounds great Cal, I hope your date goes well, but I actually called to see if you were ok, your mom called me an-"
"My mom called you!" I interrupted
"Yeah she told me about what happened earlier with your dad and she said she thought you could use somebody to talk to, I called your apartment earlier but you didn't answer I figured you didn't want to talk to anybody, where were you?"
"I was at Arizona's apartment, we watched the hangover and she fell asleep."
"She fell asleep! Watching the hangover! You're kidding right?"
"Nope" I laughed at how I and Addie shared the same thoughts even when she was miles away.
"Wow she must have been tired! But why were you there, your date isn't until Friday and you just met her."
"Well I was upset because of what happened with my dad so I went to her apartment and she said we could hang out and watch a movie, so we did." I could tell Addie thought it was weird that we were hanging out in each other's apartments when we had only met the day before, but we don't care so why should anybody else!
"Ok Callie, but be careful you don't want to get too attached to quickly, you don't know her yet, she might hurt you!" This was Addie being all protective and serious. I'm pretty sure if she was here right now she would be in Arizona's apartment giving her the "If you hurt my friend I will break your face" speech.
"Addie, she isn't going to hurt me."
"Ok Callie I trust your judgment, but that's still not why I called. Are you ok?"
"Yeah I feel better after hanging out with Arizona and talking to you, I miss you Addie." I knew she would be smiling down the phone, I just wish she was here so I could see it.
"I miss you too Callie, now go to sleep. I will call you soon ok."
"Ok goodnight Addie"
"Goodnight Cal."
OoOoO
Friday...
I had 2 hours left before mine and Arizona's date and I was still trying to pick something to wear. We were going out to one of the best restaurants in Seattle so I had decided wearing a dress would be appropriate...but which one!
I eventually chose a light pink figure hugging dress, yeah I looked hot! I stood in front of my mirror and started putting my make-up on when my phone vibrated. Hoping it was Arizona I rushed to my phone and picked it up; I hate to say I was a little disappointed when I saw who it was from.

Big date with Blondie tonight, you ready? ;) x
Addie did this before all of my dates and if I told her I was worried or nervous and that I might call it off she used to come over to my house and tell me if I threw away a date when she didn't have one, she would kick my ass! And trust me, you don't mess with Addie!
Yeah I'm almost ready, just putting on some make-up ;) x
I went back to the mirror and finished off my make-up. I was now completely ready and I still had an hour and a half until Arizona came to pick me up for our date! Then my phone vibrated again, this time a smile spread across my face when I saw who it was from.
1 new message Arizona
Heyy Calliope ;) x
Heyy Arizona, you ready? x
Yep been ready for about a half hour then I realised I still had 2 hours to go lol ;) x
Lol I just finished putting my make-up on so I'm ready :D x
Lol excited much? Do you want to come up to mine for a bit before we go? x
Lol of course I'm excited, I have a date with a hot blonde ;) x Yeah see you in a minute?
See you in a minute Calliope :D x
Now who's excited! ;) x
I grabbed my purse, phone and keys from my bed and headed out the door and up to Arizona's appartment. Just as I was locking up I suddenly felt shaky and ill. NERVES! I shook it off and walked up to Arizona's apartment, by this time I had figured out the stairs were way quicker than the elevator!
A couple of minutes later I was knocking on the door of Arizona's apartment. It only took a few seconds for her to open the door with a massive smile on her face. This time it was her turn to stare. A couple of seconds passed and she was still staring.
"Arizona, can I come in or are you just going to stand there and stare at me?" I smirked remembering when she said that to me when she showed up at my door on the night she kissed me. My smirk turned into a smile when I remembered that night.
"Funny Calliope, very funny! But yeah I will let you in." She looked a little embarrassed but I liked the fact that she was staring at me, it confirmed that I chose the right dress.
She looked Beautiful. She had a blue dress on, which was the same colour as her amazing blue eyes.
"Hot" I mumbled to myself
"Excuse me?" Crap! She wasn't meant to hear that! Well there is no turning back now.
"I said you looked hot" She smirked at how my face went bright red.
"Aww thank you Calliope, you look hot too." She smiled and winked at me. "So we have a while until our reservations so what do you want to do?"
"We could watch TV, but only if you don't fall asleep this time" I joked and smiled at her.
"I will try my best" She joked back
OoOoO
"We better get going, do you want to drive or should we walk?" She always made sure I was ok with things, I loved that about her.
"I feel like walking, if that's ok with you?"
"Walking is fine Calliope" She now had a massive smile on her face. We walked down the stairs and out of the building. The cool air hit me in the face and a wave of excitement came over me. I was walking to a classy restaurant with a hot blonde! I love Seattle!
She still had that same massive smile on her face. "What are you smiling about all of a sudden?" I asked jokingly.
"It's our first date Calliope" Her smile got even bigger, which I honestly thought wasn't possible! I smiled at the fact that I wasn't the only one excited about our date.
I was just about to reply to her comment when her phone rang. "Do you mind if I take this?" She asked. I shook my head and smiled.
"Hey Teddy."
"I'm walking to the restraurant with Calliope, why?"
"I can do what I want teddy! Please just leave it will you! I can't talk now, bye Teddy!"
Even though I only heard one side of the conversation I could tell it was something about me and Arizona. "What was that about?" I asked hoping she would tell me why she just had an argument with her friend...about me.
"Ohhh just my friend Teddy, she thinks I shouldn't be dating you because you just got here and I should give you time to settle in, stupid really!" I didn't think that was the whole story, maybe not even the true story but I didn't care, I just wanted to enjoy my date with Arizona.
"Ohhh well next time you see her tell her she doesn't need to worry about me. I am settled in fine and plus, going on a date with a hot blonde is not something I need to get settled in for." I winked at her and she laughed, She had such a cute little laugh, she was adorable!
We talked, joked and laughed all the way to the restaurant. She was such a fun person to be around. I knew then that this date would be the best I'd had in a long time.
OoOoO
We arrived at the restaurant and were seated at a table in the corner of the restaurant by the window, there were flowers and candles. Very romantic.
"I love it here" she said as we sat down, another massive smile on her face, dimples and everything!
We talked, and talked, and talked. I found out so much about the person I was so quickly falling for. Her dad was a marine, her best friends were Teddy and Alex, she grew up in Seattle, she had a weird thing for chickens and she wanted to be a paediatric surgeon. We talked about the fact we both wanted to be surgeons for a while. It was weird how perfectly matched we were!
About an hour and a half later Arizona called the waiter over to get the check. We left the restraurant with massive smiles on our faces
I love being around her, talking to her, laughing with her. It was sort of like we were meant to be together.
"So do you maybe want to do this again sometime?" She asked nervously.
"I would love to Arizona" I smiled at her and she smiled back...with the dimples, god I love the dimples!
It was about a 15 minute walk to our building from the restaurant but I didn't mind, I liked having the extra time with Arizona.
We arrived at the building and she offered to walk me up to my apartment. We walked up the stairs in a comfortable silence. When we reached my apartment door, to say I was shocked at what she did would be the biggest understatement of the year!
I was just about to say goodbye when she rammed me up against the door kissing me passionately and forcing her knee between my legs. It only lasted about 30 seconds, then she pulled away and smiled
"Goodnight Calliope" She smirked as she walked away and up the stairs to her apartment.
So is there more to the call with Teddy...you will just have to find out :P do you think Arizona is lying or just bending the truth, anyways I love getting reviews from people I would also like to thank everybody who has reviewed this story it's nice to know that people are actually reading it lol x I do live in England so I have no idea how things work in America but I have decided that in this story it is normal to live in your own apartment when you are 18 lol which is probably a load of crap but hey who cares :P x Thanks for reading and i just wanted you to know that I will try and update when I can but I have realised that updating everyday just isn't possible so I will try my best to update every 2 or 3 days...sorry x
