Wow! You guys are amazing! Thank you so much for the reviews! They really help motivate me! Hope you enjoy date night :)

Ever since Arizona left Callie's apartment this morning, Callie had spent the afternoon running around the city finding the perfect recipe to make for dinner, checking on a few consults at the hospital, and cleaning her apartment like a crazy person making sure everything was ready. She really wanted to make this night special for her an Arizona, especially since they had been trying to have a real date for quite some time now. She had texted Arizona earlier to let her know that she would be picking her up around 7 and to wear something somewhat fancy even though they were staying in for their dinner date. To Callie, she didn't care if they were staying in or going to a fancy restaurant for their first date, she wanted it to be perfect because Arizona deserved perfect.

Hearing a knock on the door Arizona was confused seeing the stranger dressed in a black and white tuxedo with a black satin bow tie and a fancy taxi driver-like hat standing in front of her. "Hi? Can I help you?" She gasped at the realization that the dark, handsome man standing before her was not the beautiful Latina she was hoping to see. Glancing at her watch, she was sure that Callie said she would pick her up at 7 and it was exactly that time.

"Doctor Calliope Torres sent me to pick you up." The main stated handing her a cream colored envelop with a wax seal and 1 white rose. Curious, she quickly opened the envelope to read the note inside.

Arizona,

I am looking forward to our date.

Calliope xo

The card was short and sweet and made Arizona smile. The fact that Callie really put effort into this plan was melting Arizona's heart and filling it with love. She couldn't believe they were trying this – for real this time. "Madam?" She heard the man say. Looking up, he was holding his hand out, gesturing her to follow him down the hall. "Shall we?" Following him closely, he led her down to a shimmering black town car that had a crisp glass of champagne waiting for her in the backseat accompanied by a single white rose. She was sad to see Callie was not physically there but she was intrigued by the game that she was playing. It was romantic and thoughtful.

Driving in the town car, Arizona was intrigued by what Callie had up her sleeve. She brought out her phone and sent a quick text to Callie

I am fascinated with you, Calliope -xo

Hitting send, she plastered another huge smile on her face. Almost immediately after hitting send, the town car pulled up in front of Callie's apartment building. They must be picking Callie up she thought – even though they were supposed to stay in tonight. Arizona figured there was no way Callie would go through all of this just to stay in for their date. She patiently waited in the back seat while the drive exited the car. Staring down at the delicate white rose she held in her hand, she heard the car door open. Looking over towards the open door expecting Callie to enter she was greeted by the outstretched hand of the driver. "Doctor." He said as he stood there expecting her to latch onto his hand and follow him out of the car. Arizona was now confused. She had expected them to be going out to a fancy restaurant or something, not Callie's house. Arizona did was she was told and exited the sedan. Anxiously waiting in the elevator, her mind raced. Did she misunderstand the purpose of tonight? Did she get dressed up for nothing? As she stepped off the elevator, she was greeted with a path of white rose pedals that led straight to Callie's front door, the same rose pedals from the flowers she had received earlier. As she made her way to Callie's door, she noticed it was already slightly cracked with a flickering light barely shining through. She wasn't sure if she was ready for what was behind the door but she knew that whatever it was, this had already been the best date she had ever been on.

Slowly pushing the door open, she stood in the door way in awe. Candles canvased the room, one flickering opposite of another, dimly lighting the area. A small, metal framed table with a restaurant white table cloth set for two was now located where the coffee table used to be. The smell of basil and olive oil drifted through the air. And the most magnificent surprise of all was a stunning brunette wearing a stunning cocktail dress holding a single white rose standing in the middle of the room, her face glowing from the candlelight. Arizona was speechless. Never in her life had she experienced anything more magnificent, and the night had just started. "Calliope..." Was all she managed to say.

Callie smiled "Welcome to the fanciest Italian restaurant in Seattle." She was so proud of herself that she was able to pull this off. "I knew you were under a lot of stress this week with everything that has happened and I figured you would be a little bit tired so I figured I would bring the best Italian restaurant to us." She said cheerfully.

Shutting the door behind her and slowly making her way towards Callie, she stopped just a few inches away from the brunette, never breaking eye contact as she walked. Callie was certainly right in that she was mentally exhausted, but all of her stress and anxiety about the events of the last few days, about their new relationship, was gone after experiencing Callie's pre-date antics and walking into the quaint apartment. "I...this...this is magnificent Calliope. I...I can't believe you did this for me...for us." She slowly reached down and placed both of her hands on Callie's hips to pull her close. "Thank you." She whispered softly before placing a soft, passionate kiss on Callie's lips. Leaving her one hand resting on Callie's hip, she moved the other to cup the side of Callie's face.

Breaking their heated kiss, Callie stared into baby blue eyes that were full of love. Her face was filled with pure joy which is exactly what she had hoped for when she planned this night. "This is for you" she extended a white rose to her date. "Dinner is almost ready. Would you like a glass of wine?" She saw Arizona nod and smile. "I bought red so that we can enjoy it with our pasta too." Making the mood a little lighter, she giggled and flirted turning from the grasp of the blonde, making her way into the kitchen. She had to remind herself that their plan was to take things slow but all Callie wanted to do was explore Arizona's body in ways that neither of them had ever experienced. Feeling Arizona sneak up behind her, she felt strong arms wrap around her torso and soft lips graze her exposed neck. Soft kisses were carefully placed in select locations. A soft nibble of her bottom ear lobe pushed her over the edge. She could feel wetness, pool between her slick folds and blood rush through her veins. She grabbed onto the counter to keep her standing upright. "We aren't going to make it to dinner if you keep this up." She huskily whispered to Arizona. She didn't want her to stop but the carbonara was going to burn if she didn't pay attention. Reluctantly, Arizona released the sexy woman from her grasp. She knew Callie had gone through a lot of trouble to set up this dinner so she wanted to be sure that they at least ate before she returned to "thanking" the stunning brunette for all of the trouble she went through.

Callie really made the dinner feel like they were at a fancy Italian restaurant. She started their dinner off with a charcuterie plate, followed by a small Italian salad, chicken carbonara, and gelato for dessert. Their conversation at the dinner table was typical things you might ask someone on a first date like where the other person grew up and favorite childhood memories. They had been friends for a while but they never really talked about anything too personal. The sexual tension in the room grew even stronger as the night went on, both ladies wanting to have something else for dessert.

Rising from the table, Arizona gathered the dirty dessert plates that were left on the table and brought them over towards the sink. As soon as the plates left her hand, she could feel Callie now in the position Arizona was in earlier, arms snaked around her sides and placing soft, gentle kisses on the back of the blonde's neck. "Mmmm...I think this is where we left off." She whispered seductively. Callie placed kissed down Arizona's exposed spine, stopping at the point where the fabric covered the remainder of her back. Making her way back up Arizona's back, she trailed kisses the entire length, stopping at the base of her neck and moving over towards her earlobe. Arizona gasped at the sound of Callie moaning into her ear. "Mmmm...you taste so good."

Arizona could feel her pulse racing – wetness was pooling between her thighs. Just being in the same room as the brunette turned her on to no end but having her mouth on her sent an entirely new feeling straight to Arizona's core. "Dance with me Arizona" she heard as Callie slowly turned the blonde around. "Dance with me." Peering into Callie's eyes, she never knew soft brown eyes could turn such a deep brown.

Giggling slightly, "We don't have any music, Calliope." Hearing the brunette start to hum, Arizona stepped closer and wrapped her arms around her partner's torso, acting more like a hug than a true dance. The couple swayed back and forth to the faint sound of Callie humming all different slow songs, each electrifying feelings more and more with every note. Arizona ran the tips of her fingers slowly up and down the back of the brunette, sending sensual chills from Callie's head to her toes.

After what could only be described as the most romantic dance in history, Callie finally loosened her hold on Arizona just enough to be able to look into her eyes. "What are you thinking about?" she questioned, realizing Arizona had an odd look in her eyes.

"This, actually. You. Me. Us." Arizona felt her face turn red. Staying still in Callie's arms, looking into her eyes, realizing there wasn't an ounce of judgement, she decided it was safe to continue. "How this feels so…right. And honestly, knowing what you know about me, my past, I figured you would run for the hills. Or that you agreed to at least carry out our date because you promised and Calliope Torres is not one to go back on a promise." She nervously laughed. "But this. I didn't expect this. I have feelings for you Calliope and I figured after what happened last night, your feelings for me would have disappeared…"

Cutting the blonde off "Arizona, I told you…"

"No wait Callie, let me finish." The brunette remained silent and placed a small smile on her face. "I figured your feelings for me would have disappeared. But what you did for me tonight, did for us, this is the best date I have ever been on. I will be honest with you, my guard was up the entire afternoon, almost dreading our date because I didn't want to get hurt again, like I have been hurt every other time. But the moment I read your note when you sent the car to pick me up, all of my fears turned back into butterflies. My heart is so full. So, what I am saying Calliope is thank you. Thank you for the best first date I have ever had." She paused just momentarily, her mood shifting slightly. "But before I let myself continue to have feelings for you and open up, I need to know what you want. If you want to continue down this same path that I am on, or just remain friends – really great friends. Because once I let my feelings go, I won't be able to stop them."

Callie didn't hesitate. She immediately crashed her lips into the nervous blonde, cupping both sides of her face. She couldn't put into words right now what she was feeling but she couldn't stand seeing the nervous look in the blonde's eyes any longer. She needed to show Arizona that she felt the same way. Running her tongue slowly against pink lips, she was relieve when they parted, welcoming her to explore Arizona's mouth further. The kiss was soft and tender, yet passionate and meaningful. It was unlike any other kiss the pair had shared in the past. Feeling drops of water flow past her hand that was resting on Arizona's cheeks, Callie reluctantly pulled away to find tears flowing from Arizona's eyes. Taking her thumb and brushing the water away from her skin, she swallowed the lump in her throat. "Shhh…no need to cry." She whispered. Looking into her eyes, Callie smiled. "I'm in this, Arizona. My feelings for you are so strong. At first, it scared the hell out of me. But now, you consume me. You are all I have been thinking about. Do I think our relationship will be perfect? Hello no – I think there will be a lot of firsts – some I am looking forward to more than others." Callie smirked and wiggled her eyebrows in a seductive manner. "But I want to experience every first with you, Arizona. Good and bad. Tonight, I wanted to show you that you are so special to me and you deserve to be treated as so. Even though tonight is not technically over, I am really looking forward to taking my girlfriend out on our next date."

Girlfriend Arizona thought to herself. The butterflies consuming Arizona were strong than ever. She couldn't believe that the person she was falling for was actually falling for her too. And this time, it was different. She trusted Callie. Every last word the brunette said was said with honesty. Callie wanted this too. Smiling, Arizona took another step closer towards Callie, staying wrapped in her arms. "Next date, huh?" she said smirking. "I think it's my turn to plan that." She said into Callie's mouth, capturing plump red lips and pulling Callie into a heated kiss. Arizona's arms traveled up and down Callie's sides, brushing ever so slightly against the sides of her breast, sending sparks deep into Callie's core.

Callie couldn't take it anymore. She pushed the blonde over towards the kitchen island and immediately hoisted her up onto the counter top, hiking her dress almost the entire way up her thighs so that she was barely covering the lacy black underwear she was wearing. She came closer in between Arizona's legs and begged for entrance to her sweet mouth. Their tongues danced around in harmony, never missing a beat. Arizona unzipped Callie's dress from behind exposing her deep purple silk bra and matching panties as it pooled around her feet. Her skin was radiating with heat. Callie caressed Arizona's thighs, rubbing her thumb along the crease of her panties. She roamed her hands up Arizona's sides and onto her back so she could slowly remove the zipper that had been gatekeeping Arizona's perfect form, her dress now pooling around her hips.

Stopping their kiss to breath for a moment, Arizona looked down at Callie, realizing that they could never go back to just being friends. They were officially romantically involved and she was head over heels for Callie Torres. "I...I know we are supposed to take things slow." She paused, trying to catch her breath while trying to determine how far Callie wanted to go. She didn't want to scare Callie but she also wanted to start to explore Callie's sexy body. "I...want you." She said seductively.

Hearing those words, Callie picked Arizona up off the counter and carried her over towards the couch, kissing her the entire way. Before reaching the couch, Arizona panted, "Bedroom." Callie pulled away from Arizona's mouth. She was a bit shocked at what the blonde wanted, but she was not about to deny her of sex. "Are you sure?" She said as she stared lovingly into the blonde's eyes. She could feel Arizona's heart pounding in her chest, matching her own rhythm.

Nodding her head slightly, "I am so nervous. This is all new to me and I have no idea what to do, or how to do this, but I have never been so sure of anything in my entire life." She nervously locked eyes with Callie, seeing the burning desire fill her pupils.

This was a whole new territory for both of them. "Let's take things slow. Let's figure out how to do this together." She smiled and giggled just slightly recapturing Arizona's lips. She quickly made her way down the hall, towards her bedroom with the blonde wrapped around her torso. Stopping at the edge of the bed, she slowly lowered Arizona down so that she was lying flat on the king sized bed, her dress still bunched around her hips. Callie slowly pulled the dress completely off Arizona's perfect body so that only her matching bra and panties were covering Arizona's full breast and dripping wet mound. "You are breathtaking Arizona." Never losing eye contact Callie made her way over Arizona's perfect body, kissing every inch.

Callie took a chance and slowly trailed her hand up the side of the blonde's body, stopping on her satin covered perky breast. Looking into deep blue eyes that welcoming the touch, Callie heard Arizona swallow hard as she kneaded her right breast. Feeling Arizona's hand slide gently on top of hers, she stopped her rhythm, feeling like something was wrong. Immediately, the blonde's hand guided Callie's tan hand to continue feeling Arizona's perky breast. Feeling this connection with Arizona was unlike anything Callie had ever experienced before and they weren't even having sex yet. Wanting to taste even more of Arizona's sweet skin, Callie resumed her pattern of placing soft, wet kisses down Arizona's entire body, stopping when she placed a soft gentle kiss over her clit through the blonde's soaking wet panties.

Feeling Callie's mouth through her panties, Arizona was sure that she was going to come without even taking them off. The thought of her tongue gliding up her juicy folds sent a throbbing sensation throughout her body. She needed Callie to rip her panties off right then and there and make sweet love to her with her mouth. Instead, she felt her lips move, placing soft, wet kisses on her bare skin, making contact with her entire form until she reached her lips again. This sensation was equally sexy and had her begging for more. She reached around to dig her nails slightly in Callie's lower back, pulling her close so that their bodies melted into one. This caused them to turn slightly on their sides and they continued to caress each other.

Callie could feel Arizona's excitement but was still nervous that she didn't know what she was doing. She had never been with another woman and she certainly didn't want to underperform for Arizona. "Are you okay?" She asked shyly, confirming that Arizona was indeed enjoying herself. Callie sure was but she didn't know how far Arizona wanted to go.

Nodding her head and smiling Arizona assured Callie that everything was fine by gently nudging Callie down onto her back and repeating the same arousing motion, starting with Callie's lips and trailing all the way down to her inner thigh. She felt Callie squirm slightly beneath her touch as she made her way back up to her sweet, plump lips. "I am more than okay" Arizona finally said. Seeing Callie's eyes grow dark, Arizona was even more turned on. She captured plump red lips, once again, begging for entrance and immediately was granted access. Their tongues danced together in a slow and sensual rhythm. Arizona nibbled slightly on Callie's lower lip as she briefly propped herself up above Callie. She reached behind Callie's back to unhook her bra, flawlessly, as Callie reached around to do the same. Pushing the bra's aside, Arizona trailed her tongue all the way down Callie's sternum and slowly made her way over to take Callie's fully erect nipple in her mouth. She gently took the end in between her teeth and bit down just enough to hear a gasp escape her lover's mouth. The sensation that was now gushing between her legs let her know that she would never be able to get enough of this beautiful woman.

Suddenly, looked down at Callie's beautiful body, Arizona was starting to feel the same nervousness that she saw in Callie's eyes moments ago. She had no idea what she was doing. It seemed like Callie was enjoying herself but her confidence level in her ability to please Callie was slowly dwindling just by thinking about it.

Callie could feel Arizona hesitate. Looking down, she recognized the look on the blonde's face. It screamed the same feelings Callie was having earlier. The feeling of want and fear all at the same time. "Come here baby" she whispered. She watched as the blonde hesitantly made her way up her body. Having the blonde now inches away from her face, she lovingly smiled and placed a small kiss on her forehead. "Me too baby" was all Callie had to say to feel Arizona relax on top of her exposed chest. Callie pulled a blanket over top of the pair to create a safe space for both of them. "I don't think I have ever been this nervous in my life" she laughed nervously. Callie thought back to the first time she had sex. It was in a parking lot of a drive in movie with a guy she had only been dating for a few weeks. They were young, drunk, and dumb so there was nothing to worry about. But this was different. This was Arizona and this was someone she really cared about.

"Me either. I was fine until crazy thoughts started swirling in my head" she laughed. "I was afraid I wasn't doing something right, or you weren't going to like what I was doing." She tucked her head into Callie's neck. "I want to. I am just scared."

"Hey. Look at me Arizona. This is technically our first date." She laughed. "We have plenty of time. We agreed to take it slow, and that's what we will do. I would be lying if I said I didn't want to, but I am feeling the same way. This is an adventure for us and I can't wait to go on it with you."

Seeing the love and sincerity in the brown orbs staring back at her, she felt safe. Normally when she was in this position, her partner would make her feel like shit for not wanting to continue. But Callie was just so full of love and understanding. "Calliope?" she whispered.

"Hmmm?"

"Will you…can we just lay like this tonight? I am really enjoying being in your arms" she smiled.

"I want nothing more" she said pulling the blonde closer. The room remained silent, but spoke volumes. The love that was growing between the two was moving at warp speed, only their own fears holding them back.
