Chapter 14
All mistakes are mine.
Getting on the plane to go back home was probably the hardest thing for Callie to do, she definitely didn't want to leave the blonde but she had to. She's been home for 4 days and she missed Arizona more and more every day. Not to mention she's horny as hell and phone sex is great but it's not cutting it, she needs the real thing. She's wound up so tight that Mark almost lost a testicle when she made a comment about her girlfriend's body when normally she would have agreed and made a comment of her own.
The three friends are in the office at the club; Teddy's bored out of her skull because Arizona told her to cancel the interviews for the day and evening managers, not sure why but she does it without question. So now she has nothing to do until the merchandise starts to show up the next week.
Addison has been upset at Callie since she got back for not telling her she asked Arizona to be her girlfriend, it wasn't so much a question as it was a statement. She feels as if she should have told her like Arizona told Teddy. Callie is not in the mood for Addie's shit though. "Addie do you have the expense report for the stable, I can't find it." searching her desk.
Addie ignores her and continues to do whatever it is she's doing, "Addie did you hear me." Still nothing, Teddy is laying on the couch watching them go back and forth. "Fine don't answer me Addison, I'll have them fax over another one."
"Whatever." Addison shrugs.
"What the fuck Addie? What are you four? Grow the fuck up." Callie slams her desk drawer closed grabs her phone and walks out.
Addie is in complete shock she didn't expect Callie to blow up like that, she's just kidding well sort of.
The red head is staring at the door, "are you gonna go after her? You know she's upset that you've barely talking to her and to top it off she misses Arizona."
"I was just kidding I'm not really mad. I like getting a rise out of her you know that."
Teddy gets up from the couch and walks to the red heads desk and sits on it, "I know you do but like I said she's missing blondie in more ways than one. She's a horny little bear."
"Well damn I didn't think of that, if Callie Torres doesn't get it on the regular she turns into a grump."
"Yes babe and you teasing her is not helping the situation any and by the way Arizona didn't go out of her way to tell me she called to talk about family crap and it just came out so cut Callie some slack." She leans down to kiss Addie's lips.
"Should I go find her or let her calm down?"
"She's probably talking to Arizona as we speak anyway and you know blondie has a way of calming the beast."
"You're right."
"I know," Teddy grins and Addie rolls her eyes.
"Anyway, I want to talk to you about something."
"Okay, should I be worried?"
"Well that depends on how you feel about meeting your girlfriend's family." Addie watches as the blood drains from her girls face and it is the reaction she expected but her dad really wants to meet her and she promised to bring her for dinner on Sunday.
"Are you serious Addie?"
"Yea, you don't want to meet my dad."
"Ugh I course babe I'm just not good with parents, they always seem to hate me for one reason or another and I will admit sometimes it's my fault but not always."
"Damn you and Callie are more alike than we originally thought." Addie whispers referring to a conversation her and Arizona had about the similarities of their women. "Come on please do this for me, I will make it worth your while." Her voice drops an octave and she gives Teds the sex eyebrow as she runs her hands up and down the blonde's jean clad thighs.
"Don't do that you know I can't resist the sex eyebrow." Leaning down until their face to face with their lips lightly pressed together.
"That's why I do it love." Addie licks her girlfriend's lips, "and if it goes well I'll let you do that thing." She pulls back to look at Teddy's face and she isn't disappointed, a devious smirk forms on her lips.
Teddy moves from her position and straddles her in the chair, "don't play with me Addison Forbes Montgomery if I go meet your father you are definitely letting me do the thing." She moves her mouth to her ear and licks the shell sending a shiver through the red heads body.
Addie gasps, "Okay."
It was that moment that Callie comes back in she rolls her eyes when she sees Teddy sitting on Addie's lap sucking on her ear. She missed touching and kissing her girlfriend so much and trying to ignore it is driving her crazy. She spent 15 minutes talking to her voice mail and getting cut off then calling back to rant about stupid shit including their best friends being all lovey dovey and it's getting on her nerves. Walking in on them isn't making it any easier.
"Do you two mind not having sex while I'm here?" Callie bitterly says while walking over to her desk.
Teddy gets up off Addie, "Callie what's going on with you?"
"Ask your girlfriend she seems to be pissed at me right now over something I didn't do. I had no clue we were in the girl scouts and required to share every single detail of each other's lives, my mistake."
Teddy decides to stay out of it, Callie is in a bad mood and Addie giving her the cold shoulder for days is not helping. She sees her girlfriend look at her but she shakes her head letting her know this is hers to fix.
Addie takes a breath, she hates when Callie's mad at her. how did this turn around and be my fault? "Callie come on ok I took it too far but I was only messing with you." The Latina responds by scoffing and rolling her eyes.
"Well that's very mature."
"Oh you want to talk about mature when you haven't talked to me for four days because you think I should have told you that Arizona is my girlfriend. Come on Addie I'm really not in the mood for this I have a meeting soon."
Addie holds up her hands in surrender she knows she's in the wrong, "alright Callie I'm sorry I've been a bitch but you're not in the best of moods."
"I never said I was I haven't been able to get a hold of my girlfriend all day I have this meeting that I don't think I'm ready for so I'm stressing but you wouldn't know that because you're too busy being upset over stupid shit."
Callie is back at her desk scowling; Teddy is just watching the two of them not saying anything because it's the tiniest bit of excitement in her otherwise boring day. She knows that all this is coming from Callie missing her girl.
"Ok Cal I'm sorry I know you're stressed right now and me acting like I was acting isn't helping anything."
"Damn right," Callie mumbles under her breath.
Addie rolls her eyes at Callie's response, "what do you need me to do to help you with the meeting?"
"Nothing, it's for the hotel and you didn't want to have anything to do with it remember."
When Callie decided to buy the run down hotel she asked Addie if she wanted to be her partner like with all the other businesses but she chose to decline saying it wasn't something she wanted to be involved in.
Rolling her eyes Addie says, "I know Callie but if you need help I will help you."
Callie Torres is a very stubborn and proud woman, asking for help is not something that she does often if not ever. The red head studies her best friend and what she sees is a woman who want's the help but will not be the one to ask for it, she's known her long enough to know that.
Not waiting for answer, "what do you need me to do?"
Teddy speaks from her once silent position on the couch, "yea I can help too since Arizona grounded me."
Callie's shoulders slump not because she didn't want the help but because she needed it, her brain just wasn't in it and a lot of it has to do with a certain blonde that has been consuming her thoughts.
"Thanks guys but I think I got it from here I'm just freaking out, this is probably the biggest venture I've ever done and I'm doing it alone so it's a little scary. There is a ton of money involved and I want to make sure it's done right."
"Callie you know you'll be great, don't let your insecurities get in the way. As for doing it alone you're not I may not have gone in as your partner but I'm still your best friend so I have your back."
"Thanks Addie and I'm sorry about earlier I was just freaking out."
"I'm sorry too; I was kind of acting like a child."
The brunette looks at her and raises an eyebrow, "kind of." She smiles.
"Shut up," throwing a pen at her.
"Ok so now that all the tension is gone and the love fest is back what time is your meeting Cal?" Teddy asks.
"At 3 I'm meeting with the contractor and the architect to go over the plans. I have some ideas that I hope will look good on paper. One of the reasons I beat everyone else's bid is because I focused a lot on it being a LGBT friendly hotel."
"Wow Callie that's amazing but if you need us there we can be your muscle. Teddy is stronger than she looks."
"HEY!" She yells knowing her girlfriend just made a dig at her weight.
"Babe you're skinny let it go."
"Not too skinny to lift your ass up." Teddy responds from her spot on the couch she's been lying on all day playing with her iPad.
Callie laughs at her friends conversation, "don't worry Addie It's a business meeting not a mob meeting I'll be fine." Callie says with a smirk.
They all go back to what they were doing, Callie looks over at Addie who has her head down writing something and Teddy is playing on her IPad and she wonders if she has been able to get a hold of Arizona. Since coming back from NY they had developed a routine of basically staying in constant contact with each other using one form of communication or another. She takes out her phone and looks at the lock screen selfie image of her and Arizona kissing in the park and she smiles.
Callie looks up from her phone and looks at Addie. "Hey Red if you want to go you can, you can be like my posse."
Addie's face light up but she tries to play it off, "yea that's cool." She says nonchalantly. She looks over at her girl who has her eyes closed and ear phones in and smiles.
"She can come too Addie," Callie says rolling her eyes.
Addie gets up and goes to wake Teddy when Callie's phone starts buzzing on her desk. Looking at the caller id she sees it's her girlfriend, the brunette smiles before answering it.
"Hello Hermosa." Callie gets up and walks out the office and sits on a couch in the VIP section of the club. The club is pretty peaceful when it was closed, that's one of the main reasons the brunette made it the location of her central office.
"Hey babe, are you ok you sounded upset on the messages you left."
Callie sighs, "Yea I was having a bad morning and I couldn't get a hold of you which made it worse."
"Awe sweetie I'm sorry I forgot my phone this morning and couldn't get it right away. Are you nervous about the meeting?"
"A little but Teddy and Addie are going with me as my posse so it should be ok."
Arizona starts laughing, "You don't need a posse honey you know it's already yours they can't take it away from you this is just to meet with the architect and contractor to go over what you want."
"I know but still Mr. Abrams will be there and it's nerve wracking."
"I know I'm sorry I can't be there to give you a good luck kiss but I'm there with you in every way."
"Thanks babe. How's your day going?"
"Great." Arizona says with her usual chipper morning voice that made Callie want to strangle her at one point but now it just makes her smile and miss the blonde even more. "We have a birthday party to set up for so that will keep me busy for a couple hours then I have to look over the books for San Fran. Oh and I called Sarah and she apologized which I think was partly my father's doing but for whatever reason I'm glad she's leaving me alone for now." She spits out in one breath.
Callie hears Arizona take a breath after her rant is over. She chuckles at the sheer cuteness of her girlfriend, with a smile on her face she says. "That's great babe," she smiles.
"Are you laughing at me?"
"No I'm laughing at your cuteness."
Arizona scoffs, "I am not cute I am hot and sexy and no not cute."
Callie laughs imagining the pout on her girlfriend's face, "you're right I'm sorry babe you are sexy as hell."
"Damn right."
They talk a little while longer, hanging up when Callie needs to leave for her meeting. Talking to Arizona definitely puts her in a good meeting ass kicking mood and with her posse in tow she does just that. The meeting was of course a success they set the date to start construction for next month. It's as if a weight has been lifted off her chest, taking on a project of this magnitude is something new for her but she's excited to get started.
Callie and her posse spent the rest of the day lounging around the pool when it was time for dinner they decided to grill and invite a few people over before spending her night the way she has since being back, working at the club.
The brunette is pacing the kitchen talking to her girlfriend on the phone when Mark walks in and sits on the counter waiting for her to get off. Callie turns to face him and notices the scowl on his face, "babe Mark just walked in and doesn't have a very happy look on his face. Can I call you back?"
"Of course, hope everything's ok."
"I'm sure it's fine, bye babe." She hangs up and turns to face Mark, "ok Sloan what's your problem?"
"You're really doing this huh."
"You want to elaborate what 'this' means." Callie questions with a scowl on her face.
"This thing with Blondie, you're really going through with it."
"If by thing you mean a relationship then yes I'm going through with it and since when is my personal life any of your business." Callie can feel her temper rising with each word Mark speaks.
"Look Callie blondie…"
"Arizona, call her blondie one more time and I'll cut your balls off." Ok Callie is pissed at this point and if Mark doesn't get to his point very quickly the Torres temper is going to unleash on him.
Putting his hands up in surrender, "sorry Arizona seems like a nice girl but Callie she's just that a girl."
"Oh my god not this again, you're acting as if she's 19 Mark. She is twenty seven years old she graduated from NYU business school with a Masters in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, yes that's a real thing I looked it up, and a Masters in Law and Business. She probably has a better head for business than I do but that doesn't matter Mark what matters is I like her and the potential is there for me to fall in love with her and considering I haven't felt this way in years you should be happy for me instead of questioning me about it." Callie finishes and is panting for air, she's pretty pissed and she can feel her ears getting hot.
"That's what I'm saying Cal you have the potential to fall hard and I don't want you to get hurt."
"I appreciate your concern I do but this is none of your business Mark, never has been and never will be so butt the fuck out." The Latina turns and gets a beer out of the fridge, he seriously pissed her off. She keeps her back to him and before long she hears the sliding door open then close.
If she had turned around she would have noticed Addie gathering hot dog and hamburger buns from the kitchen table but instead she almost jumps 20 feet when the red head speaks. "Cal you ok?"
Whipping her body around clutching her chest, "dammit Addie you scared the shit out of me."
"Sorry you were kind of staring into space. Is everything ok?"
"Yea Mark just being Mark and butting into my life."
"Oh lord what did the king of meddling do now."
"He was just asking me what I'm doing with Arizona and insinuating that she's too young for me which is ridiculous because she's only 5 years younger than me. That's like saying Teddy's too young for you."
"Hey Teddy is only 4 years younger than me thank you very much." They both start laughing. "Don't listen to him you two are sickeningly cute and she's good for you."
Callie smiles thinking about her adorable girlfriend, "we are pretty hot aren't we."
The red head throws a bag of hot dog rolls at her, "shut up. Look Mark is just looking out for you; he doesn't want another Erica situation."
"I know he's just annoying," she smiles.
"That's part of his charm now come on let's get back out there I need me a burger." They laugh as they grab everything they needed and join the rest of their friends.
When Callie returns to the back yard she sets the things on the table by the grill and walks to Mark who is talking to Teddy and slaps him in the back of the head, letting him know everything is good between them. They smile at each other before the Latina walks back to the grill to talk to Derek and Owen.
The rest of her evening is uneventful, spending time with friends is what Callie likes to do most the only thing missing to make it absolutely perfect is her beautiful blonde girlfriend. She still has a hard time believing Arizona is actually her girlfriend, when she went to NY her only intention was to console her knowing something was bothering her she had no clue she was going to come back with a girlfriend and truth be told she wouldn't change not one thing.
Later that evening she's driving to the club with a big satisfied smile on her face, remembering the phone conversation she had with Arizona earlier. Callie was in the house alone waiting for Arizona to call like she promised. She starts flipping through the channels on the TV trying to be patient when her phone rings. Looking at the caller ID she smiles when she sees it's the person she's waiting for.
Callie picks up and answers the phone, "hola Hermosa."
Arizona smiles she loves hearing Callie speak Spanish to her. "Hi baby. How are you?"
"I'm great now, I was waiting for you to call I miss you."
"I miss you too." They're silent for a few seconds listening to the other breath, "you promised to give me details on your meeting and I want to hear all about it."
"You want a play by play." Callie jokes smirking.
"If that's what you want to give me, I want to hear about it." Callie relents and starts telling her about the meeting and Addie and Teddy going and being her posse. They both laugh when she tells her how Teddy tried to intimidate the contractor by standing behind Callie with her arms crossed the entire time.
Arizona tells Callie about her day as uneventful as it was. One birthday party at the workshop where a kid glued a ceramic elephant to his hand and a birthday cake mishap. When they hear each other's TV's in the background they realize they're both watching American Bake off and that knowledge makes them laugh.
After a few more minutes of small talk Callie gets an idea. "So what are you wearing?" She says with a smile.
"Why Ms. Torres are you trying to seduce me over the phone?"
"If I said yes would it work?"
"Hmmm I think it just might." Arizona responded with her deep sexy voice that sends all heat south every single time. This being no exception, she closed her eyes and imagined all the things she'd be doing to her if they were together.
Taking a deep breath, "so are you going to answer the question?"
"What was the question again I don't seem to remember?"
"Arizona," Callie groaned. "What are you wearing?"
"Absolutely nothing." Callie wasn't the only one with this particular activity in mind.
The Latina's breathing stopped, "you are trying to kill me."
"Never, I just got out the shower and decided to air dry and I'm lying in bed and I started thinking about you and what we did in this bed and next thing I knew I was wet and needing to hear your sexy voice."
Callie leaned back and closed her eyes imagining her girl naked in bed spread eagle. "Damn Arizona."
"I really need to touch myself." Hearing that almost caused Callie to drop her phone.
"Oh god," she whispered.
"Are you wet baby?" Arizona asked and Callie nodded her head forgetting they are on the phone. "I'm gonna need you to answer babe."
The brunette didn't need to put her hands down her pants to know she's wet. "Yes," she croaked out.
"Well then since we're both wet maybe we should do something about it." Arizona suggested slowly moving her hand to her breast and gently pulling on her nipple.
Callie was finally able to find her voice, not really sure where the hell it went but glad it came back, she said, "I like the way you think." Before unbuttoning her shorts.
"Calliope put your phone on speaker." The Latina did as she was told and listened to Arizona shuffle and get comfortable. At that point Callie could cum without touching herself, something that's never happened before by the way.
The Latina waited until it was quiet, "are you ready cause I'm taking charge of this?"
"Oh god yes, I love it when you're in charge."
Yep almost came. "Ok slowly move your hands over your body. Caress yourself and pretend your hands are my hands touching every inch of yourself."
"You feel so good babe," Arizona smiled.
"Good now bring your hands up to your breasts and cup them knead them but not too hard remember how I make you feel when my hands are massaging your tits nice and firm." Callie instructed kneading her own clothed breasts.
"Mmm," Arizona moaned, doing what her girl told her to do.
"Ok now pay attention to your nipples, roll them between your fingers pinching them as hard as you want," Callie said with her eyes closed listening as the blonde moaned and gasped. "Keep one hand on your breast and move your other hand down and rub your clit gently."
Arizona does what she's told and is close very close. "Oh god oh god," she chanted.
"God this never gets old," Callie moaned remembering the other times they've done this. The brunette spread her legs a little more and shoved her hand down her pants reaching her own clit and moaned. "Fuck."
"God babe I miss your fingers and your tongue," Arizona panted loudly adding pressure to her clit.
Callie moaned while adding pressure to her own bundle. "Slide your fingers along your folds, spread them and circle your entrance. Push your fingers against it but don't enter just yet." The brunette said while doing what she told Arizona to do.
"Fuck…we're gonna cum so hard. I need you baby, I need you inside."
"I know babe," Callie moaned. "Now push two fingers in nice and slow." Once again Callie does what she's telling the blonde to do. "Oh my god," she moaned as her walls began to pulsate.
Arizona gasped as she pushed them in massaging her walls as well, "God Calliope this feels amazing."
"I know it does, I wish it was your fingers." Callie admitted finding a steady rhythm as her fingers thrust into her.
"Oh baby yes, I'm so close…I need more."
"Push your fingers in deeper, baby. Find your g-spot," Callie growled arching her back as she followed her own instructions. "Shit…"
"So good." Arizona moaned pushing her fingers in faster and faster hitting her g-spot every time. Her hips kept up the rhythm of her fingers.
Callie is two steps or two swipes of her clit away from being pushed over the edge. "Come on babe put in another finger and rub your clit, cum for me baby."
"God yes Calliope."
"Harder," Callie ordered letting out breathy gasps as she feels her toes curling.
Callie thrust hard into herself and yelled as her walls tighten around her fingers, her orgasm hits her hard. "Arizona."
"CALLIOPE! "Arizona yelled riding out her own orgasm letting out load moans into the phone.
"Oh god," Callie panted letting her head fall back against the pillow as she pulls her finger out of herself. "Lick your fingers babe."
Arizona lets out the sexiest moans into the phone as she cleaned off her fingers, "that was amazing."
"Thank you babe, I couldn't have done it without you." Callie said with a chuckle.
Callie is brought out of her memory by a honk from behind, looking in the rear view mirror she smiles taking in her flushed appearance she shakes her head and drives off towards her club. This is going to be a very good night Callie thought, it was a long ass day and all the tension in her body rolled off her the moment she had an orgasm. A little over a week and Arizona would be in her arms again, shit she's turning me into a sap, she thinks pulling into her parking space. Taking a deep breath she gets out of the car to start her long ass night.
A couple days later Callie's sitting in her sister's backyard in the middle of the afternoon watching her niece play with her friends. Today is the little girl's birthday party, she smiles when she hears laughter coming from the pool and she realizes she still wants this. The Latina is brought out of her thoughts by her sister Evangeline sitting on the lounge chair next to her.
"Penny for your thoughts Catapillar."
Callie rolls her eyes at the nick name Eva used to call her when they were kids. "nothing just thinking."
"Well duh, about what?"
"This," gesturing to the backyard. "the house and kids and just the feeling of family."
"Are you thinking that you might want this again after all?"
Callie smile shyly, "maybe." She says shrugging.
"Would a certain blonde, who I like very much by the way, have anything to do with you changing your mind?" Eva asks already knowing the answer.
Callie smiles but before she can answer her phone goes off signaling a text. She earns an eye roll from her sister and said sister decides to walk back over to her husband who is in charge of the grill.
Don't forget to give Mia the present from me – A
I won't babe and again I will say you didn't have to – C
I know but I wanted to I hope she likes it – A
Callie looks up at the pool when she hears Mia call her over to get in; she smiles then types a quick message. I'm sure she'll love it. I have to go she's calling me call me later – C
Ok sweets have fun – A
The Latina puts her phone on the chair takes off her shirt revealing a black bikini top that goes with her black and white swim trunks, runs and jumps in the pool splashing everyone in the vicinity.
The rest of Callie's weekend goes by pretty quickly; luckily she was able to avoid her parents and sister at the party so she didn't have it ruined by their ignorance. Mia loved her present from Arizona which was a painting of the horse she wants when she turns 10, the agreed upon age she is allowed to have one. The brunette spent most of her day on Sunday on the phone with Arizona, while the woman ran errands and sat in Bryant park reading and people watching. They both found out that they loved hearing each other breathe, just knowing the other was close by was comfort enough.
On Sunday night before both women go to sleep they are on the phone laughing, joking and teasing each other. Everything feels so right, well except the fact they're in two different states; it feels good and fun and exciting and easy.
Before hanging up Arizona gives her girlfriend 4 kisses into the phone. One for each eye, one for her nose and one for her lips, that sequence has become her thing. Callie closes her eyes to imagine her soft lips on her and she smiles, her heart pounding at the thought of their only being one more week left until her arms are filled with a blonde haired, blue eyed goddess.
Callie falls asleep much like every other night, clutching the stuffed clown fish she won for Arizona at the fair on their second date. Her dreams filled with visions of the future.
A/N: Not really sure how I feel about this chapter, it's a little bit of a filler to get things moving and to show Callie without Arizona. Let me know what you think and if you like the pace of the story, there will be a time jump in the next couple chaps. Hope you enjoyed it…until next time folks.
