A/N

Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time to review this story so far. I promise it will be Calzona endgame, so please stick with me! And special thanks to the guest reviewer who pointed out that I hadn't actually tagged this story as Callie and Arizona!

Arizona groaned at the sound of knocking at her door. She had just started to finally drift off to sleep, having politely asked Leah to leave following a couple of hours of restlessness, and now she was infuriated by the fact that it seemed like the younger woman just wasn't getting the message.

Pulling her robe round her she stumbled to the door and pulled it open. Her eyes widened when she saw who was on the other side.

"Callie?"

"Yeah…uh, hi. I'm sorry, I thought…I mean, Leah text me so I knew you were awake, and so I thought…sorry I should go" the brunette stammered before turning to leave.

"Hey" Arizona called after her "it's ok, come on in"

Callie turned and smiled at her gratefully "Thanks"

"Coffee?" the blonde offered as he walked back into her apartment.

"That would be great"

"Black one sugar?"

"You got it"

A few minutes later Arizona placed two mugs of coffee down on the table and smiled at the grateful brunette.

"So…how come you're sneaking out at this ungodly hour?" she asked, trying to keep her voice light and airy.

"Oh, I…honestly, I couldn't sleep. Mark's…"

"Not the best bed companion?" the blonde finished.

"Yeah, something like that"

"That's kinda the reason I kicked Leah out"

"Oh" the brunette looked almost sad at Arizona's last statement.

"Did you have a good time last night?" the blonde asked, wanting to immediately move on from the previous topic of conversation.

"Yeah, I did" Callie grinned widely "I love to dance"

"You're a great dancer"

"Thanks. You're not so bad yourself"

"Oh I do ok, but I got nothing on your Latin moves"

"What can I say, these hips were made to move" Callie replied with a wink.

The blonde's eyes widened and she hid her mouth behind her mug to avoid giving away her reaction.

"So, do you always drink tequila, or just on special occasions?" the brunette continued.

Arizona laughed "I never used to be a fan, but some of the interns introduced me to it, and you know, it kinda does make the night more fun"

"The same interns who call you roller girl?"

The blonde groaned "I really wish I never told you that"

"What? I think it's cute" the brunette protested.

"Cute?"

"Totally cute. You're a cute kinda person. I mean, you work with kids, you wear heelys, your apartment is decorated like a bubblegum factory, and don't think I didn't notice that little teddy you were carrying in your pocket the other day"

"Hey" Arizona pointed a finger in mock sternness "I am totally badass"

"Ok" the brunette chuckled.

"I so am!"

"Sure. I guess I'll have to wait and see the badass side come out"

"Well maybe you will"

The two women smiled at each other as they finished their coffee in comfortable silence.

"So…I should probably get going" the brunette started, placing her mug back on the table.

"Listen, I have a perfectly good spare room if you wanted to get a bit of rest before you head home?" the blonde offered.

"Oh, I couldn't impose like that"

"You wouldn't be, seriously" Arizona reached out and placed a hand on the brunette's arm. There it was again, that electric spark that occurred whenever they made contact.

"In that case, thank you"

Arizona smiled at the woman again as she withdrew her hand "Be right back, I'm just gonna get you something more comfortable to sleep in"

"Oh you don't have to…"

"La la la la" the blonde sang in a childish attempt to drown out the other woman's protestations.

The brunette laughed and shook her head as she accepted the tank and shorts that she was being offered.

"Arizona…thanks for this, seriously"

"It's no problem, honestly. Let me show you the room"

"Thanks"

The blonde waited in the doorway as Callie reached the bed before turning to face her.

"You're a good friend Arizona"

"Sleep well Callie" she smiled back.

Arizona returned to her bed, dropping her robe to the floor before getting under the covers. Her head was spinning at the thought of the brunette being the other side of the wall, but for some reason the fact also seemed to relax her. Maybe it was knowing that Callie was most definitely alone and not cuddled up with Mark. Either way, she was grateful when sleep finally came.

It was a couple of hours before the blonde stirred. She stretched contentedly before hearing a crash coming from the kitchen and a muffled exclamation that sounded like Spanish, but she couldn't be sure. Laughing to herself, she got up and pulled her robe back on before emerging from her room.

As she rounded the corner into the kitchen, she found the brunette still muttering under breath as she rubbed her foot.

"You ok?" she asked.

"Shit! Oh, hey, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you. I was looking for a pen to leave you a note to say I was leaving and I stubbed my toe on the damn table"

"Maybe I should put a warning sign up…I mean, it is pretty difficult to see" the blonde teased.

"Urgh. You're way too perky considering how little sleep you've had"

"What can I say, I'm a morning person" Arizona replied with a shrug.

"Of course you are"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Just…you're all happiness and rainbows. Makes sense that you're a morning person"

"Whereas you're all dark and mysterious and only come out at night?"

The brunette raised an eyebrow "Something like that"

"So no note needed now that I'm up, but just in case you're ever in my apartment again and uh, in need of a pen, they're in the crap drawer. Second drawer down over there"

"Arizona Robbins has a crap drawer?" the brunette asked incredulously.

"Surely everybody has a crap drawer"

"I mean, I guess I just figured you were so super organised that you wouldn't need one"

"Oh I am super organised. Hence the need for a crap drawer. Where else would I keep…" Arizona paused as she looked in the aforementioned drawer "batteries, pesos, plastic cutlery, the charger for a phone I no longer own and a stash of takeout menus?"

Callie laughed "Well in that case I take it back, you totally need a crap drawer"

"So…do you want a coffee to take with you?"

"Oh, you don't have to do that"

"It's no bother" the blonde reached up to get a travel mug from the cupboard "I have like a billion of these and you can give it back to me some other time"

Callie raised an eyebrow "A unicorn mug? Seriously? You know what this is gonna do for my street cred, right?"

Arizona chuckled "You can swap for erm…puppies? Dancing llamas?"

"Haha no it's fine. I'm badass enough to pull it off"

They grinned at each other as the blonde filled the unicorn mug.

"Thank you, again" Callie said warmly "I really appreciate this"

"Anytime" the blonde replied with a smile.
