CHAPTER 21

TIME JUMP

For Mateo's second birthday they had a big party.

They had recently moved out of the Mazatlán and into a brownstone house on the Upper West Side.

Moving into the house was a new beginning for them. It felt like a new life.

When she had shown the last birthday guests out, Arizona returned to the living room where she leaned against the door frame, looking at Callie and her two children.

Sofia was coloring while explaining to Callie how very important it was that she get a horse, and how the animal could very easily fit in the basement. Callie chuckled at her daughters many persuasive arguments while putting socks on Mateo.

The boy was making horse noises and wiggling his bum, making it hard for Callie to get the socks on him.

After blowing a few raspberries on the boy's belly, the latina looked up and met Arizona's gaze.

Callie winked at her and then she got up and walked towards Arizona, her baby bump visible in the tight black dress she was wearing.

She pulled the blonde in for a kiss.

"How are the twins?" Arizona asked.

Callie put a hand on her belly. The latina, six months pregnant, looked radiant, full and heavy with what she was carrying.

"They're fine. Not causing any trouble"

Arizona gave her wife a loving smile. And put a hand on top of Callie's.

"I can't wait to meet them, Callie"

THE END
