AN: I've been missing in action for a while and I'm really sorry for that. I guess summer vacation is taking a lot of my energy as well. So here's another chapter. Hope you like it.
Callie's POV
We're out on the street now, Arizona walking a good distance ahead of me. I tried calling out to her a few times, but she won't turn around.
"Baby…" I call out to her sweetly.
"Baby, wait up for me please. It's freezing out here" I tell her, but she just keeps her fast pace.
I jog up to her, and when I finally catch up, she puts more distance between us.
I take my jacket off of me, and I move towards her to drape it over her shoulder.
"Here, keep my jacket, it's cold out" I tell her softly. I keep my arms over her to provide her more heat.
"No, keep it" she tells me coldly.
"I don't want you getting cold" I tell her with concern lacing my voice. I try to pull her closer to my body, but she disentangles herself from my hold and whisks my arms away.
So we keep walking like this with about 4 feet between us and Arizona refusing to talk to me. I just put my arms around myself; it is really cold out, but I don't care, my girlfriend comes first, my very pissed girlfriend.
We arrive in her dorm, and she still hasn't said a word or even chanced a glance at me. I close the door gently behind me while Arizona goes straight to her side of the room and removes my jacket off her shoulder and throws it haphazardly towards me. After removing the jacket off my face, I see her take her shirt and pants off in record time with her back still at me. For I second I thought that I might actually get laid tonight, but my hopes plummet when she lies down on her bed with her back still at me. She pulls the blanket up to cover her body, and I inwardly pout at having the beautiful view of her ass taken away from me.
I take my own shirt off, and pull my pants down, and I cautiously approach my girlfriend's bed. I carefully lift the blanket to make space for me to get in. Once I'm settled on the bed, I drape my arm around my girlfriend's torso spooning her from behind, and I moan at the feeling of her warm skin against mine, but before I can close my eyes, Arizona removes my arm from her body and yanks the blanket off of mine.
"Lexie won't be coming home tonight, you can sleep on her bed." Arizona says without even turning around to look at me.
"Come on babe" I say in my sweetest voice hoping that I can sweet talk my way out of this ridiculous situation.
"..NOW" she tells me sternly and with that I hop off her bed.
"Sweetie, come on, we can talk about this" I plead with her.
"I'm tired. Stop bothering me, you should go to sleep too" she replies in a stone cold voice.
I can only have so much patience for how she's acting right now.
"Come on babe, I think you're over reacting" I tell her with a slight irritation in my voice.
That seems to have caught her attention, and she turns around to face me. I can see the fire in her eyes, and she gets up from her comfortable position. She's now sitting on the bed facing me and giving me her intense glare.
"I'm over reacting? Don't I have the right to be pissed after hearing about my girlfriend's vast sexcapades?" she asks in her angry voice. Arizona might sound angelic and oh so sweet on normal days, but when she's angry, it could make men pee themselves.
"Babe... they meant nothing. And we were broken up back then" I reason with her.
"Still, it bothers me knowing that other women have seen you naked, have put their hands on you. I close my eyes, and that's what I see." She yells at me.
"Baby… they didn't matter to me." I tell her. What am I supposed to tell her to calm her down?
"Yeah? What…all 20 of them?" she tells me in an almost mocking tone.
"Babe…."
"Give me a number Callie" Here we go with 'Callie' again.
"Arizona…it's all in the past. There's no point in this" I tell her, I'm seriously starting to get irritated. I'm not proud of how I lived my past in the 4 years that we were apart, but could she really blame me?
"Why am I just finding about this?" she asks.
"Well, what am I supposed to do? Just blurt out 'Oh hey babe, I think you should know that I have a pretty interesting sexual history while we were broken up?'" I reply.
"I don't know! I just….Ugh. Finding out now just makes me so mad!" she screams out furiously….. "and scared." she says that last part shakily.
"Scared of what?" I ask.
"Scared that I'm not enough for you. Scared that you're going to look for someone else more experienced" she says in a softer tone. She sounds so little, so insecure, a great contrast to her infuriated tone earlier.
I walk towards her now, kneeling in front of the bed she's sitting on. I cup her cheek softly, urging her downward glance to look at me.
"Hey…" I coo softly. "You're more than enough for me. I love you so much that I would never look at any other woman with interest ever again... And you're the best I've ever had" I tell her sweetly.
I start to lean in to capture her lips in a kiss but she faces away so my lips land on her jaw.
"Yeah…I bet you've told everyone of your conquests that. You're such a good sweet-talker aren't you" she tells me with a scoff, then the softness in her eyes are gone in an instant, and now she's back to being 'Arizona the Kracken'.
I feel like I've been slapped in the face with my sincere words being spat back at me. I immediately stand up feeling too vulnerable kneeling before her while she just sneers at me.
"If you don't want to listen to me or believe anything that I'm saying, we're not going anywhere. So, I'm just going to sleep, and let you cool down." I tell her in a highly irritated voice as I make my way to Lexie's bed.
"Give me a number Callie." She demands harshly.
"Why does it matter to you? It's all in the past Arizona. You're my present now, and my future" I turn around and ask her. I'm now clearly frustrated by this senseless discussion.
"I think I have the right to know if my girlfriend's banged..what…an entire girl's football league? A sorority house? That maybe I should get tested for something?" she says a little bit too harshly and my eyes go wide from shock, horror, and a lot of hurt.
Seeing the reaction on my face, and letting her own words sink in, she seems to regret the words that came out of her mouth seconds after.
"Wow….Arizona…just….wow" I speak shakily. I'm red with anger right now, while my eyes are glistening from tears of hurt. I take one deep breath to calm myself down, before I pick up my discarded clothes from the floor.
I pull my pants up my legs not even taking a glance in Arizona's direction. I think if I look at her, I'll break down, or probably explode.
"Callie…I-" Arizona tries to speak, now in a shaky regretful voice.
"Save it Arizona" I interrupt her rudely.
"I didn't mean to-" she tries again.
"Didn't mean to what? Fish a slut for a girlfriend?" I retaliate angrily while I briskly pull my shirt over my head.
"Calliope…please- where are you going?" she asks in a small voice when she notices that I'm heading out the door.
"Anywhere but here" and with that, I leave Arizona's room , and slam the door at my wake.
Arizona's POV
Fuck. I royally messed up.
I was mad, and scared, and seething with jealousy, but I never intended to hurt Callie. Stupid jealous Arizona.
Now I regret playing that game, and actually forcing Callie to play that game with me. It was just all too much for me when I was bombarded with information about my girlfriend's sexual history. Sexual history with women who are not me. A lot of women. Two women at once.
Then I felt so little, and insecure knowing that my girlfriend is this female Casanova who has been with girls hotter than me, while I'm just plain old me. My friends probably think that Callie's going to break up with me in no time to go on to her next hot girl. I know she loves me a lot, but I have to admit, that thought occurred to me as well.
And of course I felt that it's unfair. She's the only one that I've been intimate with, and I hope she's going to be my first and last. Knowing that there's this whole harem before me bothers me.
I know I can't really blame her, but that didn't stop me from lashing out on her. So here I am now, cursing myself for opening my big mouth without thinking. I went out of line, so I have to fix this.
Callie's been gone for about 15 minutes, and I just have a few ideas of where she went. So I hurriedly pick my clothes from the floor and make myself look decent before I rush out the door to look for my hurt, pissed off, and slightly drunk girlfriend.
I walk briskly back to the frat house, and I release a breath of relief when I see Callie's car still parked outside, and not yet trashed. I guess no one would dare try lay a finger on Callie's Audi R8. At least Callie didn't drive far away from here while being in no condition to drive. So she has to be just around the campus.
I go inside the house again, and I scan the living room full of drunk people either swaying, passed out on the floor, screaming like idiots, or puking but no girlfriend in sight. Seeing that she's not here, I move to the kitchen, and I see April still there.
"Hey…have you seen Callie?" I ask her.
"Uhm…not since you two left together" she tells me. I'm not surprised that April is not drunk considering that she barely drank anything during the game.
"Where's everyone else?" I ask her.
"Alex pulled Reed somewhere, and Jackson and Lexie went dancing a few minutes ago." She tells me seemingly oblivious to the unusual Lexie and Jackson tandem.
"Lexie and Jackson?" I ask intrigued as to why Lexie is with Jackson.
"Well…yeah, they're pretty close" she says nonchalantly, and it seems that April doesn't know anything more about this. So I just tell her thank you and I go back to the search for my girlfriend.
I have only one other place in mind since it's the only public place that's open at this time near campus, and if I don't find her there, I'm going to be at a total loss, and I'm totally going to freak out. I just hope she's okay, and safe. If something happens to her, I'll never forgive myself.
So I walk a little bit out of campus to the only pub allowed to operate within the vicinity. I enter the 'Green Light' hoping that I know my girlfriend too well and that she's probably here trying to drown her hurt in liquor.
I enter the pub, and the smell of cigarettes, beer, and sweaty men invade my senses. It's a pretty dull night, it's probably because of the frat party we were just in. I scan the room , looking for my Latina goddess. Then I spot her, sitting slouched down on the bar with her back to me. I can tell from her posture that something's really bothering her, what I said is really bothering her.
I make my way to her, trying to rack my brain for what I'm going to say. I really haven't thought of how I'm going to apologize and ask her to go back with me to the dorm. I guess I just have to wing it cause I'm just a couple of feet away from her now. However, a view of a blonde haired woman with large breasts and skimpy clothes on Calliope's right stop me at my tracks.
She's facing Callie, talking to her in a sultry tone and sending her flirty smiles. This just makes my blood boil, but I can't act like the crazed jealous girlfriend again if I want to make this right. So I just stand there a few feet from the two of them taking deep calming breaths.
"So what is a beautiful woman like you doing here all by her lonesome?" The blonde haired bombshell asks my girlfriend flirtatiously.
"Just blowing off some steam" Calliope responds in a disinterested voice.
"Blowing off some steam huh? I think I can help you with that" the blonde tells my Calliope seductively as she puts her hand on my girlfriend's forearm.
I could barely stop myself from launching myself towards this woman and scratching her eyes out, but I have to keep it cool. I can't piss Callie off some more. So I stay rooted on my spot because that's all that I can do without going all crazy on this girl.
"No thank you." Callie replies bluntly then she pulls her arm away discretely out of this woman's grasp. I'm relieved that Callie's not showing any form of interest on this woman even though we're fighting.
This girl is just so incessant though. Clearly, Callie doesn't want anything to do with her, but this barnacle just won't fuck off.
"So, are you new here? I haven't seen you around before?" the blonde asks obviously trying to start a conversation.
"No. I don't go here. I'm just visiting my girlfriend" Callie tells her before taking a swig of whatever she's drinking.
"You have a girlfriend huh? Sucks for me. If I were her, I wouldn't let you go here by yourself looking hot and gorgeous. I wouldn't even let you leave my room if you know what I mean." The blonde just continues trying to seduce my girlfriend.
I just can't take it anymore, so I walk my way towards Callie and this bimbo.
"Hey baby!" I say a little too loudly as I'm trying to catch the attention of the other woman. She steps back a little when she sees me approaching Callie.
Callie turns around, shocked that I'm here and being all chirpy.
"Sorry for making you wait" I tell her, then I give her a kiss on the cheek. I just want to kiss her properly, passionately, kiss it all better, but I know I don't have the right to now after how I acted and denied her a kiss earlier.
"I think I'm gonna go" the blonde says before finally leaving my girlfriend alone.
"Arizona… what are you doing here?" Callie asks monotonously.
"I came looking for you. I want to apologize for what I said earlier." I tell her sincerely while trying to catch her gaze.
"What the hell was the overly perky greeting and the kiss on the cheek all about? I thought you were disgusted by being kissed by a slut?" she says trying to ignore my apology. Ouch, her words stung, but I know it's nothing compared to what I said earlier.
"It's just….that blonde girl won't leave you alone." I tell her.
"So…you think that if you didn't come to my rescue I wouldn't have handled it? You think that if you didn't show up I'll jump her bones. Oh yeah, I guess you're thinking that huh?" she tells me mockingly.
"Babe…it's not that-" I try to explain to her, but she cuts me off.
"Don't. I can't talk to you right now. You should go home" she tells me sadly, and I know that for now, this discussion is over.
"No, I'm going to wait for you, and we're going back together" I tell her.
"You should go…really, it's going to take more than a couple of drinks for me" she tells me, not making any form of eye contact since I got here.
"No. I'm not going to let you walk back alone drunk. So I'm just going to wait here til you've had your fill." I tell her, then I move a couple of bar stools away from her, giving her the space she needs.
So I sit there, watching my girlfriend drink while she's not even recognizing that I'm just sitting a few feet away from her. I guess I deserve it though from the way I acted today.
She looks so sad, and hurt, and I hate myself for doing this to her.
While I'm wallowing in self blame, I didn't notice that a gruff big man has settled himself a little bit to my right until I hear him speak.
"Hey there gorgeous" he says in his lecherous voice, and I can smell cigarettes and alcohol radiating off him.
I don't turn to look at him though. I act like I didn't hear anything hoping that this man would just scurry off.
"Can I get you a drink?" he says while stepping closer to my personal space.
I still don't budge though, hoping that this man would take the hint.
"Come on sexy….don't play hard to get" he tells me as he puts his big hands on my arm.
I immediately yank my arm away from him, and that gets a rise out of him.
"Come on, I know you want some of this. Don't be such a bitch" he sneers. Then he puts his hand on my arm again, then pulls me so now I'm facing him.
"Get your hands off me!" I yell at him.
"What? You don't like what you see? Most girls would immediately drop on their knees at the sight of me" he tells me drunkenly while he looks at me like I'm a piece of meat.
Before I can yell for help, I hear someone yell from behind me.
"Get your filthy hands off of my girlfriend you pig!" Calliope's voice echoes through the almost empty bar.
"So you're a dyke huh? That's why you're not interested. Well, one night with me and I can change both of your minds" the man says lewdly to the both of us.
The man was caught off guard, and so am I as Calliope charges towards him to yank him away from me. She's got him pinned on the wall with her forearm against his throat. I never knew Callie is this strong.
"You are not to speak to my girlfriend. Don't touch her, don't even look at her. If you want to see daylight, you better leave now" my girlfriend seethes to the man choking.
Callie releases him then she turns around to check on me, but before she can take 2 steps away from the man, the guy grabs her then pushes her on the wall face first.
I instantly panic at the position my girlfriend in. This man is so drunk that he looks like he's not going to hesitate hurting a woman. I tell the lanky bartender who is just wide eyed staring at the fight to get some help. The people are just staring too, looking like they don't want to mess with this guy.
I'm about to run over there and try to pull this guy away from my girlfriend when Callie swings her leg backward landing a forceful blow to the guy's crotch. The guy stumbles backward grasping his crotch, giving Callie space to turn around and punch him on the face. The huge man then falls on the ground with a bleeding nose, not knowing whether he should put his hand on his aching balls or bleeding face.
Callie strides past him towards me and takes my hand in hers.
"Let's go" she says.
AN: So…a jealous crazy Arizona. A pissed off Callie. Then Callie going all Rambo to defend Arizona. What do you think? Any speculation on what will happen next?
I hope I can update soon, but I'm going on vacation with no laptop with me. It's just for a week though. I'm going to try and update before I leave. Hope you don't forget to review! =)
