Thank you so much for reading my story! I know I said I would post on Thursdays, and I plan to. At the request of a few reviewers including "a desperate reader", here is a bonus chapter ;) Thank you so much for all of the reviews!


"So what kind of rules do you think we need to set?" Callie asked as Arizona made her way across the room. She had opted for a shower that night and had just come out of the bathroom in a tank top and sleep shorts with her hair loose and still damp on her shoulders. Grinning at the brunette that was propped up against the headboard with several pillows, the blonde dried her tousled hair with a towel before sitting next to Callie on the edge of the bed.

"I think we need to set them together so we both understand what they are and why we need them" she smiled softly.

Callie nodded even as she found herself distracted by very pink lips that she knew were sometimes incredibly soft and at other times incredibly demanding.

"Calliope...are you listening to me?" brown eyes flew up to hers with forced innocence.

"Absolutely" she smirked not sorry at all about getting caught especially when she saw amusement glistening in gorgeous blue eyes. "what and why, got it. How do we do this?"

Tucking a strand of dark glossy hair behind the Latina's ear, she grinned at her. "How about we think about it tonight and talk about it tomorrow? This has been a pretty full day already"

"Hmmm" Callie nodded then squinted at her "Ok, but where do you anticipate kissing falling on this list? Will it be on the do list or the don't list?"

Pursing her lips and raising her eyes to the ceiling, Arizona pretended to think about it before smiling at the brunette. "I think that one should definitely be on the do list"

"Oh, thank god" Callie smiled and pulled the giggling blonde into her arms. She gently wrapped a hand in blonde curls and pulled her down until their lips met and pressed together. Arizona moaned when the ortho goddess pulled back tugging on her bottom lip with her teeth until it slid free. Immediately moving back to find her lips again, she sighed softly at the sweetness of the mostly innocent kisses. Dropping several more on those very full red lips, she moved up and kissed her forehead too making Callie laugh softly. Rubbing their noses together she sighed again before burying her face in the tan skin of her neck enjoying their closeness and the sensation of being held. Content, they cuddled for several long minutes before Arizona stirred.

Sitting up, straddling the Latina's thighs, she smiled at her as a thought occurred to her. "Can I…" she bit her lip nervously and looked down at all of that smooth and soft caramel skin visible in a wide strip between where her shirt had ridden up and the low slung waistline of her sleep pants. Lifting her eyes to meet Callie's, she gave her a teasing smile. "Can I see your tattoo?"

Heart rate increasing to a pounding tempo, Callie tried to hide it as she rolled her eyes playfully. Reaching down to tuck a thumb into her waistband. she drew it down slowly, exposing her midriff, before continuing on. The tattoo was located just a few scant inches above and to the left of her pubic bone and by the time it was fully exposed, Arizona eyes were a midnight blue and her breath had quickened at the teasingly slow reveal. Swallowing thickly, she reached a tentative hand forward before drawing it back again. Grasping her fingers, Callie gave her an encouraging nod as she placed them on her warm skin. Closing her eyes briefly at the contact, she smiled at the blonde. "It's ok, you can touch it."

Blue eyes darted up to meet hers, taking note of the Latina's flushed cheeks and attentive gaze before drifting slowly back down her body, lingering for a long moment on where taut nipples poked against the thin fabric of her shirt, before continuing on.

"You don't even like butterflies" she whispered reverently as she traced the edges of the pink shape, memorized by how vibrant the colors were against Callie's beautiful caramel colored skin.

"But I like the girl who wears the butterflies" she smiled, voice soft and loving.

Raising an eyebrow at the memory of a similar comment about sandwiches when they first started dating, she wasn't surprised to find a teasing grin on the ortho goddess' face. A thrill shot through her before confusion etched across her features.

"Which girl wears butterflies?" she questioned, her nose scrunched up in a way that Callie loved.

"You do" she grinned

"What? I don't wear butterflies!" she protested starting to move away before the brunette reached out to wrap her hands around slim hips, holding her in place.

"I remember once, after we had just started dating, I was in the chapel at the hospital with Addison"

"Callie, really? I'm not sure I'm buying this" she questioned with a stone face but eyes glittering with amusement.

"I know, Addison in a chapel, but it's a true story." she laughed

"Anyway, I was talking about how I had kissed a peds surgeon and how I really, really liked you. Except you liked butterflies which, you know, I'm badass" She shrugged and laughed as she shook her head at the memory "I was telling her how much I was falling for you, and that you were perky, like really perky, and loved butterflies and everything pink. I even told her there were butterflies on your scrub cap just to make it clear how perky you actually were. I am the polar opposite of perky so me being so completely infatuated with someone so incredibly cute and cheerful was what convinced her I was seriously into you." Grinning at the memory, she became thoughtful "Ever since we met, butterflies have always reminded me of you. They are just so beautiful, free, and seeing one always makes me smile. So, yeah, I love the girl who loves the butterflies." Arizona blinked back tears as she listened to the end of the story, ignoring the fluttering in her chest. Dimples popping, she grinned down at her.

"And the pink?" she tilted her head with curiosity

"It's your favorite color. I wanted all the different patterns in your scrub cab but it would have been too detailed for such a small area."

"Hmmm" she murmured as she traced the delicate lines. "Callie? You didn't...not in Seattle..and it's not new...Callie, when did you get this?"

The brunette stilled underneath her. She looked up to find soft dark brown eyes focused intently on her. She could feel the shift in the air again and wondered what was coming. "I uh...I got it a month or so after I moved here." she whispered.

Arizona tilted her head and stared at her as she processed the information. Getting no response, Callie nervously continued on. "I uh...I knew Penny was a mistake. I did but I was so desperate not to fail again. Looking back, I don't know what I was thinking. I had you, this bright shiny star in the sky and I let you go and was too scared I would fail again." She moved her hands to grasp the blonde's thighs, drawing circles with her thumbs against the edge of the fabric, occasionally dipping low enough to caress smooth skin. "I needed someone who needed me and so I tried to polish Penny to be a bright shiny star but she wasn't. Not for me at least. It was easier to ignore what I was feeling in Seattle, between work, our friends, you and Sofia I was able to convince myself I could love her. In New York there were no other distractions besides work. She was dull and plain and...just not you. I missed you so much, Arizona. I was just so scared". Knowing what she said would probably raise more questions her eyes pleaded for understanding as she waited for a response.

Searching the face in front of her that she had loved for so long, Arizona took her time to think about all that Callie had said. She had a lot of questions about her time spent with Penny. She wanted to know when Callie knew it was a mistake and when she had decided she wanted to be with her again. She wanted to know why she had stayed with Penny when she knew she was wrong for her and why she had never came back to Seattle when it was over. There were so many unanswered questions burning for answers but as she looked at the hope and anxiety intermingled in the brown eyes before her, she hesitated wondering if it would be best to leave the heavier questions for another time. Instead, she tried to focus on the things pertaining to her. Callie loved her. She thought she was a bright shiny star and had missed her. Had apparently missed her enough to get a tattoo in her honor. Looking back down at the cute and yet incredibly sexy image, she scrunched her nose up in confusion again.

"You missed me, so ...you got a tattoo?"

Relief evident, the Latina smiled. "It seemed inappropriate to put my wedding ring back on but I wanted something permanent."

The fluttering in her tummy increased in intensity, and she struggled to ignore it. "I have a lot of questions, Callie."

"I know, and I..I want to answer all of them, but maybe not today?"

She nodded with understanding because it had indeed been a very full day. Smiling softly, dimples flashed as she leaned close enough that Callie could feel her warm breath against her skin. Heat streaked through her and gathered, pulsing and pounding in her core.

"It's beautiful" she murmured "Is that my..?"

"Y..yes…" she stammered. "I had them make the wings out of your initials. I thought the guy did a pretty good job."

"Mmmm" was her only response as she continued her close inspection. Callie closed her eyes tightly as she tried to hide her body's reaction to the blonde's lips being so close. It felt like every one of her cells were aching to be touched and caressed. A low moan ripped from her throat when she felt the tip of a warm tongue trace the initials as they curved to form elegant wings..

Arizona knew it was too soon and knew she should wait. There were still a lot of questions, things to discuss, rules to make, and boundaries to set but she couldn't help but taste that glorious skin and the permanent way that Callie had marked her own body as hers. Callie was hers. Pressing an open mouth kiss to the pink tinted skin, she murmured "Mine" just loud enough for the Latina to hear her.

Gasping at that one word, she couldn't help but tangle her fingers in blonde curls, holding her close. "Yours. Always" her response was low and filled with emotion.

Pressing her forehead against her abdomen, Arizona took a deep breath. She could smell the brunette's arousal and the intoxicating scent was making her dizzy. She fought the urge to go further but was finding it extremely difficult

Callie loved sex. She especially loved sex with Arizona. She had had good sex with other people but no one was able to bring her body to the heights that the blonde peds surgeon could. She desperately wanted to push her head down just a few more inches to where her clit was hard and aching with need. She craved the taste of the blonde as well as the touch of her mouth on her core as her lips and tongue searched for and found every hidden treasure she had. The brunette could tell that Arizona was struggling to contain her own desires though which meant she wasn't really ready. Even as her hips bucked up slightly, Callie eased the grip on her hair. "Two needs and a want, Arizona" she managed to get out.

Kissing her skin again, Arizona looked up and Callie gasped at the naked want in her eyes. Blinking a few times, the blonde gained control of herself. Clearing her throat she nodded. Her voice was low and raspy "I need to take a cold shower. I need to finish making a few calls about having my stuff brought here. I want to take you out on a date." she smiled impishly.

A breathtaking smile spread over the Latina's face and her eye's lit up "You do?"

Flashing her dimples, she smiled and nodded "Yep. I mean you are already mine so the least I can do is take you out" she winked.

Raising a dark eyebrow with a smirk, Callie nodded "Okay then, I accept."

Smiling a brilliant smile, Arizona nodded before sliding off of Callie. Stopping, she turned back and dropped another kiss on the pink butterfly then hesitated before bending one more time to press a firm and lingering kiss against the fabric covering the tip of the Latina's folds where her needy clit was still pulsing. Giving her a flirty wink when she failed to stop a low moan from escaping, she strolled out of the room, hips swaying.

"Damn it" Callie murmured even as another grin crossed her face. Groaning with both frustration and anticipation, she fell back on the pillows.
