Callie's POV

I'm running over across the garden as fast as I can considering I'm wearing heels. Why is this campus so big? I run and run, but somehow it's like those dreams when you just run, but never reach a destination. Suddenly I trip and now I can't find one of my shoes in the darkness. Honestly I don't care I just want to get back to my room. I run into the building and quickly go in to the room.

As I look in the mirror that you see immediately when you walk in and you can tell that I've been crying. I just don't remember when. Maybe it was while I was running. My face is all red, so are my eyes and the mascara has just made my whole face black. I'm just glad that we live on the first floor and that nobody saw me. WE live on the first floor. As in Arizona and I. SHIT!

She's going to be back any minute now and what am I suppose to do? I haven't even processed what happened. One minute I was looking at the view and she was agreeing with me that it was nice until I noticed that she didn't mean the lake. She meant me. I just looked at her and felt a tension. As soon as I smelt her beautiful scent I felt the urge to kiss her. Before I did she kissed me but just softly to see my reaction. Which was to kiss her back and I enjoyed it. Like really enjoyed it, I don't think I've ever felt sparks like that while kissing someone for the first time or ever.

It wasn't until she grabbed me by the waist that I realized what I was doing. I was kissing her, a girl I never thought I would do that, not only because she's a girl, but because she's nothing like me. Perky people annoy the hell out of me usually, but not her. She's different. I freaked out and now I ruined everything. The one person that's nice to me. The one person that sees the real me. The one person that I ever felt like this for after knowing them a day. Now she's the one, no scratch that just the next person in line that I've ruined things with. It hasn't always been my fault, like with George but it doesn't change the fact that it was ruined.

I was so selfish , I just ran over here without thinking about how she feels. I just left here there all alone. I need to fix this. I don't know how but I have to, unless it's too late now.

Arizona's POV

Here I am, tried to turn a straight girl gay again and here I am hurt and alone. I should have known better I can't really blame her. However she kissed me back, what's up with that? She didn't just kiss me back, we were practically making out. So why did she freak? Okay I do get it when Joanne made a move on me I freaked too. I knew pretty early that I liked Joanne, but it wasn't real until she kissed me. Unlike Calliope I didn't just run away from Joanne. Partly because I was at my house, but also because it would be mean.

I just stand and watch out over the water and wish that I could take back these 7 minutes. I kissed her 8 minutes ago and I don't want to take it back. Not the kiss, just the freaking out. The hardest part is that we share a room. Eventually I'll have to go back since it's getting pretty chilly out here and I have a tiny dress on.

My brother Ted always said that when it comes to girls just go for it. Live for the moment and do what you feel like you should do, not what you think is better. I just wish that I could make a phone call so that he could give me some words of encouragement. I can't call him so I just try to remember words of encouragement he said before. God I miss him so much.

Now I'm walking here crying openly I just hope that no one sees me. The dorm is really far away and my feet are killing me. I'm almost there when I see a shoe that I recognize as Calliope's. I pick it up since she's probably missing it. She wasn't so drunk that she didn't notice that she dropped her shoe.

I stand in front of the door I can't go in. She's in there and what am I suppose to do. Frankly I'm fairly angry at her for leaving me like that. I wipe of the tears on my face and take a look at the mirror I have in my purse. I don't want her to see me like this. I'm a good man in a storm, not someone who cries over a girl she met less than 24 hours ago. It's just that I've never fallen for someone this quickly and now it's over.
I just walk in and I see that she tenses when she hears the door. However she doesn't turn around, which is the least she can do. Now I'm feeling more than fairly upset, I'm really upset, like really really upset.

"Here you go Cinderella!" I say with an angry voice before throwing the shoe just centimeters from her head. I wasn't really aiming at her, well maybe a little.

Callie's POV

"Here you go Cinderella!" I hear before feeling the wind that comes when she throws a shoe, my shoe, right past my head. I did hear her coming in, but I was trying to figure out what to say.

I quickly turn around and I can see she's been crying even if she's trying to hide it. Even if I did hurt her back at the lake it doesn't give her a reason to throw a shoe my way.

"What the hell Arizona, you can't just throw a shoe at my head!" I say with annoyance in my voice. Now I'm a bit pissed.

"Well it didn't really hit you in the head and you're welcome."I can see that she's hurt.

"Look Arizona…" I don't get the chance to finish the sentence before she interrupts me.

"No Calliope its fine, really you don't have to say anything." I can see that she's getting tears in her eyes and inhales deeply to regain composure before continuing.

"I made a mistake thinking you like me. Obviously you really don't so let's just forget about this okay?"She looks at me and I honestly don't know what to say.

"No Arizona we can't just forget about it." I should say something more, but I don't know what. Words aren't my strong side.

"Fine, I'll just go to the headmistress tomorrow and tell her that I want to switch room."I can't believe she just said that. I'm just standing here trying to figure out what to say. It feels like it's a dead end right now.

"I'm going to go and brush my teeth and go to bed." With that she goes in to the bathroom and I just stand there and I'm trying to figure out what to say when she comes out.

[10 minutes later]

Arizona's POV

As I walk in to the bathroom I start to cry. I can only imagine how pathetic I look right now sitting on the cold bathroom floor crying my eyes out in a pink dress. She's out there angry at me for kissing her and its wrong. I should be mad at her for kissing me back and then just running away.

But I'm not. I can't be mad at her for some reason. I just feel hurt and now I have to change rooms with someone else. She didn't even try to convince me not to.

I brush my teeth and wash the makeup from my face. Almost everything is gone already from all of the crying anyway. I change to some shorts and a tank top and decide to just go to sleep. I just hope that the headmistress will agree on a change of rooms. She'll probably wonder why I want to change it and I should probably come up with a lie. I can't really say that I got rejected by my roommate and I can't be in the same room as her.

Callie's POV

She opens the bathroom door and steps out, I can see that she's been crying again. I hate the fact that I'm the reason that she's been crying. Even with her eyes being redder than blood she is so beautiful.

"Hi" I say softly and she just gives me a nod, passes me and now she has her back to me. I can hear her breathing being uneven like she's trying not to break down.

"Arizona, can you listen to me for a second?" I beg her.

She turns around.

"There's really nothing to say Callie." She used my nickname.

"Please? I have something to say." I'm really trying to convince her to listen. She just gives me a nod and I take that as an ok to continue.

"Ever since I got here Arizona I've been feeling things I've never felt before. You're the reason for those feelings, I really can't describe the way I feel around you. I just know that I don't know what to do. Not only because you're a girl, but because I've been hurt before, like real bad Arizona, by people close to me. Tonight I was just looking at you and thinking about how beautiful you were. Then you came out and kissed me and I was on cloud nine until I realized what was happening. I'm not ready for anything right now."

I'm not quite happy with the outcome, but I had to say my reasons. She just stands there confused and with a hurt look on her face.

"Well I listened Callie, was that all?" How can she be so cold to me now?

"Almost, I also don't want you to switch rooms. I really like being with you Arizona." I smile at her, but her face doesn't change.

"Is this the part where you say that we should just stay friends?" She says staring intently at me, I can't really tell if the sadness has changed to venom or not. I really don't know the real answer to that question. I don't feel like we're 'just' friends, I don't know what we are; it's only been a day since I met her.

"Not really. I really like you Arizona and I don't get why we can't be friends, at least for now. Can you give me a reason?"It feels like I'm begging her for a friendship.

"I'm in love with you."She says looking down at the floor, crying, it took me a few seconds to even realize what she said and I don't know what to say this is a brand new scenario. People don't fall for me, I fall for them.

"Is that reason enough? I'm the girl who fell in love with her roommate after one day. It wasn't even a whole day, maybe just 12 hours. I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore. Can we just forget the whole thing happened and continue our lives, separately?"She looks at me trying to get an answer.

"Uhm…Y-Yeah, but you don't have to change-" I don't get the chance to finish the sentence.

"Yeah I do Callie, I'm sorry okay? I wish it didn't have to be this way. I'm just going to go to bed now. Good night."With that she turns around and lies down. She's facing the wall and I sit trying to understand how I got here.

I go to the bathroom and get myself ready for bed; I take a long hard look in the mirror and can't really understand how this happened. How could I ruin this? The girl is falling for me, nobody has ever done that. I fell for George and when I told him I loved him he said that he was going to call me. Now I almost did the same thing to her.

It's not like I want to be with her because of the fact that she's falling for me, it's the whole package I want. However I'm scared, I was hurt really badly by George and I think that if this with Arizona wouldn't work out I would be even more hurt.
I don't want her to change rooms, I really don't. With my luck I would get a crazy person to live with me. Besides I love being with Arizona and I can't imagine having her somewhere else in this dorm.

Arizona's POV

As I'm staring at this wall and I really can't believe I told her I'm falling for her. Clearly she doesn't feel the same way for me. She wants to be friends. That's biggest load of you know what that I've heard. People say that they want to be 'just friends' to someone because they don't want the person to get hurt. What they don't know is that saying the 'f-word' is worse than telling them that they are ugly.
I have never ever felt like this for someone after such a short period of time or at all for that matter.

Calliope is coming out of the bathroom and goes to her bed. She's facing her wall and I turn around and watch her. It sounds kind of creepy watching her, but I can't stop looking at her. I should probably get some sleep now too; I don't know how long I've been laying here.

[[4 hours later]]

I'm standing in the enormous hangar and I see families everywhere. Everybody looks so happy and I see the soldiers coming out and hugging their loved ones. I'm still waiting for my brother's coffin; I can't believe this is happening to me. 7 months ago he promised me he would come back; he said he never would leave me alone. He promised his pregnant fiancée that he would come back and they would get married before the baby was going to be born. Now we're standing here and waiting for a wooden box and a flag. I see the coffins being carried out and I turn to see the families crying, I can also see my own crying, my mother also having a horrified look on her face. I still remain stoic until she starts screaming. I turn around and I see my brother walking down the stairs with blood pouring from bullet wounds all over his chest. I can see Calliope too, but she's blurry.

Callie's POV

I get woken up by hearing Arizona crying, at first I can't hear what she's saying but eventually I can.

"No Ted please no, somebody please help him!" Who's Ted?

"How could this happen to you? Please help him someone."I can see her toss and turn in the bed crying. I don't really know what to do, should I wake her or what?

She stops saying things, now she just whimpers Ted. It hurts me hearing her so sad. Who is Ted? I can't stand it; I don't know how long she's been having this nightmare. It feels like hours but it's probably just a few minutes. It seems like it isn't going away.

"Nooo Calliope, not you too, please help them someone." Wow I'm in the nightmare. I have to do something.

I get up from my bed and I can see her pillow being wet from all the crying. Her curly, blonde hair is spread all over the pillow. Still she looks so beautiful with the moonlight shining through the blinds on her face. I'm standing next to the bed and I just stroke her forehead and whisper that everything is going to be okay. I notice that she calms down. Is the dream over or was it my words? I'm turning to go back to my bed when she grabs my arm.

"Please stay, don't leave me." Shit.
