Arizona's pov

What the hell has happened in the last 10 minutes? I thought I had her pegged but I guess I was wrong. Everything I assumed she was is wrong. She fragile, just like the rest of us in this world. I never would have imagined she would ask me to dance. I know I should have stayed quiet and enjoyed the moment but I felt myself caving in to her and I knew I had to stop it. All I could think of was asking if she was bipolar. I'm smooth, I know.

I don't know what it is about this girl, she's constantly keeping me on my toes and I have to admit, I like it. She is unlike anyone I've ever met. She's beautiful but lots of girls can be considered beautiful. She'd deep but not in a creepy way, she's intense and I like it.

I know she has a million and one thoughts and I wish she would trust me even for a second and let me in. I wouldn't judge her, I couldn't judge her. For a while I really believed that she had no interest in me and I was just a conquest that she couldn't obtain, now as I look in her eyes as she tells me that I have the power to break her all I can think to do is wrap her in my arms and making her feel safe if only for a small period of time.

"You don't have to do this Arizona, really, I'm ok. I'm not a baby; I don't need you to protect me you know, let me up."

"I know you don't need me to protect you, that's not what I'm trying to do, this is more for me then you, is that ok?"

I know I shouldn't have lied but I didn't want her to leave my arms. It felt so good having someone's head on my chest I wasn't sure I would ever be able to let her up. I wasn't sure what these feelings were that ran through me. I know it wasn't lust. I wasn't infatuated with her; it felt like I had found a long lost friend that I didn't know I lost. For the first time since I've moved here I'm starting to feel hope. Hope that Boston won't be as bad as it seems. It's starting to feel a little like home.

"Arizona, can I ask you a really important question, she asks into my chest."

"I'll answer one of yours if you answer mine, deal?"

"Deal, before I ask you this question you need to know how important your answer will be to me ok?"

" ooooooook, I reply a little scared"

"Coke or Pepsi?"

"What? Are you serious, you got me all nervous and hyped up over a beverage question, what is the matter with you Calliope Torres?"

"Looking at you, there is nothing wrong with me at all, but seriously, come on, Coke or Pepsi?"

"Um, I'm not much of a soda drinker but coke for sure, you?"

"Oh coke all the way, your turn."

"Ok, lets see, how old were you when you had your first kiss?"

"First kiss let me see if I can think back that far, I was 14."

"Ok, does this person have a name?"

"Names aren't very important."

"I was 7 and in the first grade. His name was Bobby and his friends dared him to kiss me on the playground. He kissed me and then I punched him. It wasn't very romantic."

We laughed so hard my stomach began to ache. I hadn't thought of that memory for years. Everything felt so natural with her. I didn't have to force conversation. Everything with her was easy. She scooped me in her arms and my back pushed against her front. We sat there together in silence and watched the stars. I didn't want our time together to end but I knew it had to be close to curfew. At that very moment I didn't care. I needed to be next to her, I needed to feel her strong arms wrap across my chest. I needed to feel wanted; I wanted her to desire me. I turned my head sideways to read her face. I needed to know if she was feeling everything I was. As I looked at her I took everything in, her beautiful cheekbones, her gorgeous chocolate eyes, her perfectly placed nose, and the most enticing lips I've ever seen. I knew it was now or never. It could go two ways, she could reject me or this could be the start of something amazing. I raised my hand up to cup her face, and slowly moved in to match my lips with hers, what started as an innocent peck quickly turned into so much more. There was passion, there was fire. I was kissing the girl that I knew would forever change my life. I could only hope that I would change hers. It took all my might to break away from the kiss, but I knew I had to get going before I got in trouble.

"We should get going, we have school tomorrow and my parents will freak out if I break curfew."

She reaches out her hand for me to take. "Lead the way."

Alright everyone I couldn't help but update again. Let me know what you think
