I am glad to know that you guys really enjoyed last chapter! You should know that we will be getting into the new chapters vvveeerryyyy soon so hang tight. I hope you all enjoy this update.

Callie's P.O.V.

*ring, ring*

I hear my phone ringing as it sits on the nightstand beside me. Reaching to grab it, I see that it's my mom calling me for the thousandth time this week. Swiping to answer it, I sigh, "Hi, mom"

"Mija, how are you sweetie?" she asks, not bothering to greet me back.

I smile at the level of concern that she is showing, "I am just as fine as I was when you called me this morning."

"Good. That is good news. I just want to be sure that everything is okay. I hate that your father and I had to be out of the country while you were sick, so I just want to call and make sure that you are okay until I can get back and see you." My mother and father have traveled a lot throughout my whole life seeing as to how he owns over 100 hotels across the nation and she is a well-known lawyer that can get just about anyone off, guilty or not. Aria and I were practically raised by Grammy Torres until we were old enough to look after ourselves. Although they traveled a lot, they always made time for us and our special occasions such as birthdays, recitals, and graduations. My mom even made it a point to be home at least two nights a week and we would cook dinner together and eat as a family. My father on the other hand, was always home on the weekends and sometimes during the week if time allowed but they both always made sure to let Aria and I know how much they care about us (i.e. the constant calls).

"Thank you mami. I love that you care but I am fine, really. Arizona, Aria, Addison, and

Teddy have been making sure of that, nonstop." I chuckle.

"I am so glad you have them looking after you. I could easily call Aria, or even Addison and Teddy myself to check up on you but seeing as to how I have not met this Arizona yet" 'Ugh, here we go' I think to myself, "I can't properly do that, can I." she finishes, and I can just hear the suggestive tone pouring out with her every word.

"You will meet her soon."

"I know, I know but she just sounds so great. Even Aria talks fondly of her, so I really have to meet her for myself."

"And again I say, you will mami."

"Alright, well I will let you go. Have a good night mija. Te amo"

"You too. Tell daddy I said hi. Te amo." I hang up the phone, shaking my head with a small grin on my face.

Mothers can be so persistent at times and Lucia Torres is no different. I am shocked that she hasn't shown up to my house at some random moment to meet Arizona 'by chance', as she would say. I mean, it has been a week since I was in the hospital and still she calls every day like I am still in there, not failing to always bring up the fact that she still hasn't met Arizona yet, but I guess that is just a mother caring for her child.

Speaking of the infamous hospital visit, everything practically went off without a hitch after Arizona and I found out our big news. The morning after, my BP had gone down significantly, and the fluids really helped with the dehydration. The doctor let me go after he made me promise to drink a lot of water since I now have a little human inside of me… I will never get tired of saying that. Addison was able to prescribe some prenatal vitamins for me to take and Dr. Walters even gave me a few ways to keep my BP down in the future.

These next few weeks are leading up to graduation at school which means that there is going to be some added stress that I, along with the rest of the school, will be dealing with. Arizona, being the amazing woman that she is, has been helping where and when she can to minimize my stress. Which reminds me, I need to think of a way to thank her for stepping up when she didn't have to.

"Did I hear you talking to someone?" My gorgeous blonde asks as she walks out of the bathroom, climbing into bed beside me.

I look up from my phone, "Yeah, my mom called, again."

"Hmm, let me guess, she was checking to see how you are doing and wants to know when she is going to meet the awesome woman that makes her baby girl happy?" she asks in what I assume to be her 'concerned parent' voice, making both of us chuckle.

I playfully hit her shoulder, "The next time she calls, which more than likely will be tomorrow, I am going to tell her that you are mocking her."

That gets her attention because once those words leave my mouth, her smile is wiped away, "You wouldn't dare." She says, making me smirk as she moves to grab her reading glasses off the nightstand beside her, putting them on and starts scrolling on her iPad.

"Try me." I say, taking the iPad from her hands, making her look at me.

She glares at me, "Do it and it's no sex for you."

"You're bluffing." I tell her, arching my eyebrow.

She rolls her eyes, smiling, "Try me" I grin, laying down, and hand her back her iPad, "I'd rather not take that chance."

She smirks, choosing not to say anything else. Looking at her, I can't help but notice how cute and sexy yet professional she looks with those glasses on. I love looking at her with them on. "You know, those glasses are really hot on you. I love to see you wear them."

"Yeah?" she asks, glancing at me. I nod.

"I will have to wear them more often for you then." She says turning the device off, placing it on the nightstand, removing her glasses and turning the lamp off. Feeling her body shift in the bed, my body briefly tenses up as I watch and feel her hand on my stomach followed by a pair of lips.

"Good night little one." She whispers, barely loud enough for me to hear. She has been doing this every night since I came home from the hospital and it warms my heart every night.

I smile as she moves back up my body, her face leveling with mine. "Goodnight, beautiful" she whispers against my lips, kissing me.

"Night baby" I turn over on my side as she wraps her arms around me. "Are you comfortable?" I nod.

Before I know it, I am drifting off to sleep until I hear a sigh, feeling a slight shift in Arizona's movement. I ignore it but then I feel her hand rubbing my back and although it feels amazing, she only does it when she is thinking, or I ask her to.

I move my face out the crook of her neck to face her, prompting her to open those gorgeous blues to look at me," What's going on in that head of yours?"

"Nothing" she whispers.

I move my hand up to her cheek, stroking it softly, "Try again."

She takes a deep breath, "I was just thinking about when you were in the hospital."

I frown, "What about it?"

"Dr. Walters. After we found out that you were pregnant, he apologized but you cut him off before I could find out why. It's bothering me that I don't know why because was strange."

As I listen to what is weighing on her brain, I begin to take interest in the sheet that is covering us and apparently, she realizes this, "Calliope?"

"Hmm?" I hum, giving her an innocent look.

"You know why he was apologizing, don't you?"

I nod, and she gives me a look telling me to elaborate. "H-He was assuming."

"What do you mean?" she asks, confused.

I sit up, turning the lamp on and leaning against the head board, "When you were digesting the news, I think he took your facial expression the wrong way. You were so shocked, and it looked like you were going to be sick. The way that I and most people look at it is that usually there are only two reasons that someone looks like that when they find out that kind of news… either it is a total surprise because it wasn't planned or…" I hesitate, looking her, seeing that she is hanging on to my every word.

"Or what Calliope?"

"Or… or in a case like ours where we are two women and we aren't married… something like this happening would mean that it's not your child."

She lowers her gaze to my stomach, taking in what I just said, "And he thought that… so your telling me that he sat there and assumed that, what, you cheated on me because were two women? Who does that?" she says, getting more upset by the second.

"Babe, calm down" I tell her, taking her hand in mine.

"No, Calliope." She says, meeting my gaze, "Someone needs to let him know that it's not okay to go around assuming things like that. For all he knew, we could have been trying for a baby and maybe I was just surprised like-"

"Arizona." I say but she doesn't hear me because she is too busy ranting. "Arizona! Hey, I told him that." I finally say once I get her attention. "When you went down to the cafeteria that evening, I had the nurse page him and I scolded him about it. I told him that even if that were the case, he should've been able to control his emotions better than that. He literally ran away with his tail between his legs after apologizing."

This makes her smile, "Really?"

"Really, really." I smile, "Baby, people are going to look at us funny because of this new life that is mixed into the equation now. Especially with the kids at school, this is going to be kind of hard to explain because everyone does not need to know our personal business. When the time comes, we will discuss how to tell people but right now, I think that we should hold off until week 12 to tell anyone. What do you think?"

She nods, "Yeah, I think so too." She says, bringing my hand up to her lips and kissing my knuckles. "You always know the right things to say when I spaz out."

"That's how this relationship works. You get to be crazy today and I get to be the crazy one tomorrow but, in this case, you can have today, tomorrow, and the day after because we both know that as I get further along, I will be the crazy one every day and who knows, maybe we'll even share a few days." I tell her, feeling the vibration of her chuckle against my lips as I kiss her.

"I guess I should start preparing myself now, huh?"

"That may be your best bet." I tell her moving to lay back down, pulling her arm to wrap her body around mine.

"I love you, Calliope" she says nuzzling her face into the crook of my neck, placing soft kisses there.

"Mmm… I love you more." I whimper.

"Not possible." She tells me, her hand rubbing my back once again and this time I know it's just to lull me to sleep.

"Go to sleep weirdo." I get out just as I slip into dreamland.

Arizona's P.O.V.

"See? That test wasn't so bad, was it? You all were freaking out for no reason." I say to the class, getting mumbled agreements.

"Are you all excited about the end of the year? I know I am." I tell them, seeing some smile and express their excitement.

"I think we'll all miss you over the summer though Ms. Robbins" I hear while the others nod their heads.

My excitement eases to a sincere smile at those words, "I will miss you guys too, but I will see some of you next year. They're supposed to be giving me chemistry and physics classes next year so some of you will be right back in here again. What are some plans that you guys have for the summer?"

"I am going to the beach"

"Visiting some family."

"Mentally preparing for senior year"

I laugh, "Wow. You guys have a full agenda."

"What are you going to do Ms. Robbins?" one of my students, Adrienne, asks.

That is a good question. I haven't thought what I will do with the free time that I will have. I know that I will spend about ninety percent of that time with Calliope, but I also need to schedule a trip to see Tim and my parents, but I guess that can just be taken care of during the fourth? 'Chill Robbins, you have plenty of time to figure everything out' I tell myself, focusing back on the expectant eyes that are waiting for an answer. "Well, I am not really sure. I would like to take a vacation-"

"With Ms. Torres?" she asks and can see the gleam in her eye as she waits for the answer.

"Yes, with Ms. Torres." I say and if it is possible, it seems as if her smile got even wider. "I shouldn't be telling you guys this, but we have decided to bring our families all together for the first time on the 4th of July… yikes."

The thought of meeting Calliope's parents then telling them that I knocked up their daughter is terrifying. Maybe we should tell them before then… I need to talk to Calliope.

A voice breaks me out of my thoughts, "Are you nervous?"

"Not until recently." I tell them honestly. I know that people may think that it is inappropriate for me to talk to my students about my personal life but in the short few months that I have been here, I have just begun to bond with them in a way that I have never done in the past. I trust them, and they trust me but still as a teacher and adult, I know there are just some subjects that just should not be talked about and I quickly let them know that before our talks get out of hand.

"Don't worry Ms. R. her family will love you just like we do."

"Well, thank you, but yeah, other than that. I just want to relax and prepare for next year."

The bell rings and I say goodbye to my students. I am erasing my board when I hear someone walking into my room. Turning, I see Teddy.

"Hey" I say smiling.

"Hey" she smiles, "Want to have lunch together?"

I nod, "Yeah sure. Callie said that she may not be able to join me today and you are a nice replacement for the time being."

She laughs, "Gee, thanks." She says, sitting a desk. "So how is everything going?"

I can't help but smile a little harder at her question as I grab my 'lunch' out of my drawer. "Everything is really good right now, Teddy. I am so happy."

"That's good. Have you two started telling people yet." She asks in a curious tone.

Taking a bite of my apple, I shake my head, "Nahh, we agreed that it would be best to wait until she is 12 weeks." Teddy nods, eating her salad.

I sigh, "Teddy can I have a small venting session with you?"

"Yeah. What's up?" she asks, slightly frowning.

I look at her, "This is all just so surreal right now. You know, we haven't even told our parents yet. I haven't even told Tim!" I told Teddy about my brother Tim and how close we are one night when she was keeping me company while Calliope was away. "I want to wait until we get them all together for the first time and do one of those little cute revealing things-"

"You don't think that would be too much all at the same time?" Teddy asks, cutting me off.

"That's the thing. I have asked myself that question, but I am not sure." I pout.

"You should run it by Callie and see what she says."

"Right. I will do that. How are you and Addie doing?"

She smiles, "We're good. She has decided to cut back on her hours some at the practice, so we are seeing a little more of each other which is what we really both want."

"That's great Teds. Oh! I almost forgot, do you remember when we were in Calliope's hospital room and the doctor gave us the big news and then he went on the say that he was sorry, but Calliope cut him off?"

"Yeah, I think we were all wondering what that was about." She says, eating her salad.

"Well I finally expressed my concern to Calliope last night and she told me that it was because he was basically assuming that he had broken up a relationship."

She frowns, "You mean, like, he thought that it was bad news?"

I nod, "Yes. He assumed that the baby wasn't mine and maybe Callie had cheated or something."

"Oh…" Huh? That was not the response I was expecting. "Oh?" I ask, confused, trying to catch her eye.

"Well…" she hesitates, continuing to look down at her food.

I am starting to get annoyed, "Well, what?"

Her eyes meet mine, finally, "Don't be mad but…" she sighs, "he wasn't the only one that thought that-"

"What?" I ask interrupting her. I can't believe what I am hearing right now.

"Let me finish. I know for me, I can't speak for Addie or Aria but for me, Arizona, every single possible scenario ran through my head. Keep in mind that I did not know about your secret. Had I known before then, that would have definitely been my first and probably only thought." She finishes, waiting for my reaction.

'She has a point Arizona and you know it.' I tell myself, sighing. "Your right… I get why people would think that. I just, it makes me feel so insecure when I think about the fact that my girlfriend is pregnant with my baby and the first thing that people will ask is, who is the baby's father, or did you use IVF? Like, no, we just had sex like normal people and thought that the birth control was enough." I say softly.

She scoots her desk closer to mine, placing her hand on my shoulder, "Arizona, it doesn't matter what other people think. As long as you, Cal, and your future son or daughter know the truth then that is all that matters. You even have Aria, Addie, and I here in your corner."

I take in what she said and smile, "Thanks for listening Teddy. I really needed to that. I don't want to keep bombarding Calliope with all my insecurities."

"Don't do that to yourself. Talk to your woman because if no one else will listen, she always will and not because she has to but because it's who she is. Cal loves you Arizona and I don't see her stopping anytime soon." She says, pulling me into a hug.

Pulling back, she says, "Speaking of your woman" making me turn toward the door. I see her standing there smiling.

"I'm not interrupting anything, am I?" she asks, moving into the room.

I sit there taking in her beauty. Sometimes I don't understand how I even got someone like her. "No, no. We were just talking."

"Yeah, I can leave you guys alone." Teddy says, beginning to pack up her food.

"No. Stay, please. Don't let me interrupt." Callie tells her, sitting down in the desk beside mine and pulling out her lunch.

I finish my apple and move to throw it in the trash, "Is that all you're eating?" Callie asks frowning, "You need to eat something else Arizona. Here, have half of my sandwich."

"No. Cal you are eating for two."

"But-"

"I am fine Calliope." I tell her, smiling. "Really."

Calliope turns her gaze to Teddy, "You agree with me, right?" I look between the two who are staring at each other.

Teddy looks at me, "She's right Zo… you need to eat something else."

I look at her in disbelief, "Seriously?"

She shrugs, "Sorry."

I roll my eyes and look to Calliope who instantly shoves half of the sandwich in my face.

"Eat." She tells me, smirking. I take the sandwich, laughing, both, at her and at the fact that I have a whole other thought of what I could be eating but with Teddy here, I won't say anything.

The three of us sit in my classroom for the remainder of our lunch break just laughing and talking about any- and everything. The rest of the day passes and before I know it, I find myself in my office looking over some last-minute proposals that need to be signed at The Robbin's Nest.

From all of the paperwork that I've reviewed, the business seems to be going off without a hitch. The store, itself, has been getting great ratings about the beautiful flower arrangements being promptly delivered to its receiver and I love that.

Picking up the phone and dialing three, the store's manager answers the phone. "Yes, Ms. Robbins?"

"Hey, April, can you come here a second please?"

"Sure thing." She says, hanging the phone up. April Kepner is truly a God send. She is literally the reason why I am still able to be a teacher and also oversee this store branch at the same time. I couldn't have asked for anyone better.

Scrolling through the entrance to my office, she smiles, "You wanted to see me?"

I smile, "Yes, I did. Sit, please." I tell her, and waiting until she does so to continue talking, "I just wanted to discuss a few of the projects with you. Make sure everything is still on track."

She nods, "Right, well, the Torres project is just about finished. As you know, there was a slight problem with one of the locations, but it has been taken care of. The workers were able to make the landscape look brand new. Also, the Pierce project is going really well. Mr. Pierce, himself, called yesterday and said that it was a job well done and that he would be referring us to others which I think is awesome." She finishes with a smile.

"Well that is great. We couldn't have gotten all of this done without you and all of our other workers so, in honor of all your hard work, I am giving you all a week off to try and relax because we have a huge project coming up next month."

I can see that April's interest has been peaked so I continue, "It is for the Torres' again. Apparently, Mr. Torres was really pleased with the talent of our employees, so he has graced us with the task of doing the landscaping for the annual tea that will be taking place on Saturday July 22nd. He wants us to take his personal garden at his home and 'design' it. I figured that Alex and you could head this project and I step in only if necessary. Jackson and Derek are both really good when it comes to design so we all can get together to come up with some ideas. Mr. Torres said that he wants it to be elegant but unique, so we can discuss it next week sometime." I finish leaning back in my chair.

"Wow… this is going to be so much fun!" she says happily, "I've never worked on a project where you design the plants."

Laughing I say, "You remind me of myself when I was able to work on my first one and I must say, the end result is always the best part because the designs are so beautiful."

"So, should I call Alex, Derek, and Jackson to set up a good time for next week to meet up?" she asks, and I nod. "Yes. Any time after 4:00 p.m. is good for me."

"Got it. One last question." I raise my eyebrows, "Please tell me if I overstepping but i-if you talk with Mr. Torres so much, and your dating Callie, how come you haven't met him yet?"

I chuckle, "Well my parents were the ones that did most of the talking and meeting with him at the beginning of the first project because they were here in Miami but now that they are gone, he talks to me but, he and his wife are always traveling and right now they are still out of the country so we really are only able to communicate through phone and most of the time I am talking to his assistant, not him. I've talked to him… maybe once I think and it was through an email. I presume that it's because he is busy." I shrug.

"Oh… sorry for being nosey-"

I cut her off, "No. It was a legit question. I will be meeting him soon because as you said, I am in love with his daughter." I smirk, making her giggle.

Callie's P.O.V.

Sitting at the kitchen island, I am on my laptop looking at a variety of baby names. I know it's still pretty early but he/she will be here before we know it, so it doesn't hurt to start looking now.

After work, Arizona needed to go into the Robbin's Nest office to finish signing some papers and what not, so she should be home sooner or later. Home. I would really like to make this her permanent home, but I am afraid that it may still be too early for us. 'What do you mean Torres, you're having a kid together.' I tell myself.

I sit there going over different scenarios until… 'Idea!' Say to myself dancing in my seat. Our six-month anniversary is coming up. I can ask her then. I mean, the worse that can happen is that she says not right now, right?

Lost in my thoughts, I fail to notice someone coming up behind me. It isn't until I feel a hand on my shoulder that I jump, turning to see Aria standing there.

"Hey, sorry to startle to." She says, I shake my head.

"It's okay, I was just thinking."

"Yeah? About what?" she says looking at the screen of my laptop, "Hopefully about how you are not naming my niece or nephew, Palmer?" she laughs which also prompts me to chuckle.

"Hush" I tell her hitting her shoulder, "No I was just thinking about asking Arizona to move in with me…" I say slowly, waiting for her reaction.

She looks at me, "Really?" I nod. "Well it's a little late for that Cal. What kind of relationship is this?" she asks making me frown.

She smiles, "I mean, she has already knocked you up. It's only right if you too live together."

I smile, sighing in relief. For a second there I thought that she was about to have a bad reaction to me wanting to live with Arizona.

"So, when are you going to ask her?" she asks.

"Our six-month anniversary is coming up, so I thought I would do it then." I tell her, and she nods. "Good idea. You know how you're going to do it yet?" I shake my head.

"Maybe I can help then." She smiles.

"I would love it if you did." I tell her honestly.

"Okay" she says getting up out her seat, "Well I am off to see some friends. I'll be back later!" she yells, walking out the door.

I focus back on the screen of my computer but a few seconds later, I feel an arm wrap around my chest and the front of my girlfriend's body press into the back of mine.

"Hi beautiful" she whispers in my ear, kissing the side of my neck.

"Mmm... Hey, you." I say moving to expose more areas for her to kiss, "How'd you get in?" I ask curiously.

"Aria saw me pulling up as she was walking out so she left the door open. What are you up to?" she asks, moving to my right side with her arm still draped around my lower back.

"I was getting restless, so I started looking at baby names" I tell her. She smiles, "Have you seen any that you really like yet?" she asks.

"I have found some possibilities, nothing too major though." I pout.

"Well… how about taking a break from your hard work" she says in a playfully sarcastic way, making me send a glare her way, "and enjoy these." She finishes, and it isn't until now that I notice her holding something behind her back.

Bringing her arm around, I see that it is a bouquet of colorful orchids I smile, taking them into my hands, smelling them," Thank you baby. They're gorgeous, just like you." I whisper against her lips before fully connecting them.

Blindly laying the flowers on the counter, I turn my body, so Arizona can step in between my parted legs, making our kiss become a bit more heated. I swipe my tongue across her bottom lip waiting for entrance but just as she opens her mouth, I pull back.

Looking at her I see her frowning, "You okay babe?" she asks me.

"Ye-" I begin to say but stop as I throw my hand over my mouth, running to the bathroom and emptying the contents of my stomach into the toilet. I feel soft hands gathering my hair and holding it back while I continue to dry heave a few more times before flushing the toilet and sitting back against the wall.

Arizona carefully watches me as she sits beside me, "Do you need me to get you anything? Maybe you should go lay down for a while."

I shake my head, "I am okay… I would like to cuddle with you though and watch a movie."

She stands up, reaching out to slowly help me up as well, "Your wish is my command, my lady." She says smiling, "Take your time and when you come out, I will have everything ready." I nod, and she exits the room.

I quickly go upstairs and brush my teeth before putting my hair up into a messy bun and changing my clothes into something more comfortable before going back downstairs.

True to her word, I walk into the den seeing different snacks displayed across the table. "You're just in time!" my beautiful girlfriend says as she walks in with a huge bowl of popcorn in one hand and drinks in the other. "Because I know my lady so well, which will it be, Hairspray or Friends with Benefits?" she asks making me smile. 'God, I love this woman!'

"That's a tough decision… you like Friends with Benefits more so let's watch that one." I tell her with a smirk.

She laughs, "You sure? If you want to watch-"

I shake my head, "We're watching Friends with Benefits."

"Okay, okay." She says holding her hands up as if to say that she surrenders before moving to pop the DVD in the player and plopping down beside me. I turn so that my back is resting against the arm of the sofa and motion for her to move closer.

Once she is situated, I place the popcorn bowl on her stomach, so we can both reach it.

Watching the previews roll on, I look down at her, "I hate that you had to see me like that earlier…"

She glances up at me, kissing my jaw, "I don't."

I frown, "Really?"

"Well yeah, I hate that our baby is making you throw up at random times and all, but I want to be by your side through it all Calliope. The puking, the mood swings, the cravings, especially the sexual ones" she says prompting me to smile, which also brings smile to her face. "Seriously Calliope, I want to be there so that I can do any and everything I can for you."

By now, my eyes have glazed over. I reach up and quickly wipe the falling tear from my cheek. "Stupid hormones" I mumble.

"I didn't mean to make you cry." She says softly.

"It's okay. These are happy tears because I love you so much Arizona and I couldn't have asked for any other person better than you." I say honestly, leaning down to connect our lips but before I can she pulls back.

I raise my eyebrow, "If I let you kiss me, you're not going to run off to go spill your guts, again are you?" she asks making me laugh and pull her face back to mine.

"Don't blame me. Blame your child"

"Oh, my child, huh?' she smiles brushing her nose against mine.

"Our child" I whisper, finally letting our lips connect.

So what'd you guys think? Did you like this chapter? Graduation along with 4th of July is coming up so there's that. Is all this happiness they are feeling right now going to last or... will something happen?

Also, thank you to everyone for the prayers and well wishes. My father is doing better he has been released from the hospital and is cracking jokes like his old self. To the reviewer that asked about the Monday updates, I stated last chapter that because people wanted more updates, they wouldn't just be limited to Monday anymore. So, from now on, I may update on Mondays and I may not but you all will get your updates every week. Let's just pray that there are no more curve balls thrown my way anytime soon.
