A/N: I'm not sure if the Gipsy Kings are famous in the USA. I'm from Europe where their music is known so let's just pretend everyone around the world knows them…you might wanna put the song on to get in the mood of the chapter !
Arizona and Callie were having a good time on the dance floor. The occasional laugh at each other's hoarse voices and their slightly tipsy state along with the rest of the guest got rid of the rigid and formal setting the party had started of on. The bar was crowded, the gypsy band blasted loudly through the ballroom and the sensual humid Miami weather was the cherry on the cake.
Julio and Javi had been not so subtly fighting for Arizona's attention. Arizona had danced a few songs with them under close scrutiny of a suspicious Callie. She trusted Arizona with all her heart, but Julio was another story. Even a blind person could see cousin Javi's infatuation with the older blonde, but Julio was another story. That guy was just…wrong. Not wanting to look like the overprotective jealous girlfriend she let it go and found a cousin to dance with while Arizona was being spun around in the arms of Julio. She let go when Javi tapped her on the back to offer her another Margarita as he had been doing all night. Arizona kind of liked the constant supply of liquor and felt a nice buzz all evening. This must have been one of the most fun nights she had had in years and it was all because of her beautiful girlfriend laughing and dancing just a few feet away from her.
"Having fun with my cousins?" Callie couldn't help but ask in a snippy tone that Arizona didn't seem to catch.
"Don't be jealous Calliope, I'm having fun!" the blonde couldn't hide the blush gracing her cheeks at Callie's observation.
Before Arizona could defend herself, she was roughly pulled in by the waist by a chubby arm. Before she knew it, she was pressed up against Callie's front as a jovial man with a bright red nose hugged them firmly to his sides in each arm.
"Aren't you a delllllicious pair. My beautiful Call-llip-iope and this gorgeous piece of candy" Arizona felt the arm around her waist slide lower and pinched her buttcheek sharply, making her squeak and her eyes widen. The combination of strong alcohol breath emanating from the man and his hand on her butt was almost enough to make her search for the nearest bucket.
"Tio Pepe?" she mouthed to Callie, who nodded and gave her an apologetic look.
"I hear we share a wall tonight ladies? I ssssertainly look forward to that!" he pinched them both in the butt again and started swaying them to the music roughly. Callie chuckled when she saw Arizona trying to wiggle out of Tio Pepe's arms. Every time she almost made it out, she got pulled back in and huffed when her body collided with the gigantic one between them again.
She was saved by Julio who swiftly pulled her out of Tio Pepe's embrace and into his own. Callie was not so lucky as she remained attached to her handsy uncle.
"I'm going to the bar, can I get you a new one?" Arizona gestured to the Mojito in Callie's hand spilling everywhere due to Tio Pepe's wild movements.
"Don't you leave me here! ARIZONA!"
But the blonde was already gone, Julio leading her through the crowd with a hand intimately resting on the small of her back. They made some small talk at the bar, Arizona completely forgetting to bring Callie her Mojito or save her from Tio Pepe's arms.
Time flew by and the alcohol made the guests more handsy, loud and sweaty. A good kind of sweaty. Arizona was laughing with her hand thrown back at something Julio said as she teasingly slapped him and her hand remained on his arm.
"Where's my drink?" Callie drunkenly shoved herself in between the couple rudely.
"Calliope!"
"Tio Pepe just felt me up. My time to be rude. Now, where's my drink?"
"I will be right back ladies" Julio quickly made his way over to a tall blonde woman that he had not introduced himself to yet.
"Having fun with that ball of slime?"
"Oh come on Callie, he was just being nice."
"Then why are you blushing?"
Arizona opened and closed her mouth, not knowing what to say. "I'm…it's hot in here okay!"
"Baby, I know the kind of blush you got when you're hot, trust me. This is a different kind of blush. Are you…oh my god, do you LIKE him?!"
Arizona's eyes widened. "I do NOT!"
Callie grinned. "Yes you do! Look at that, you're getting even more red!"
"Stop looking at me like that. It's warm!" Callie stared her down until she got an answer.
"It's just…he's…and you're…"
Callie was nodding her head up and down to coax a normal sentence out of the stuttering blonde.
"He's like a male you okay!" Arizona conceded.
"He is WHAT?!"
"He is you but more hairy and with boy parts!"
"No he's not! He's a cocky slimy womanizer wearing too much cologne!"
"Calliope, admit it. He is crazy good looking, tall, dark and handsome, charming…I'm telling you he is you! …oh god and now I have a crush on him! In a superficial kind of way of course."
"You cannot be serious"
"No no no not a crush crush!" Arizona grabbed Callie's arm for emphasis "…but talking to him is like talking to you when we just started dating. I don't know what's happening but I get all giggly and flirty because I keep seeing you in him" Arizona ranted before downing her Martini in one go. "These Torres genes are dangerous."
Callie narrowed her eyes as she took in the flustered state of her girlfriend. "Thank God it's not Javi. You'd be straight AND a pedophile."
"It's nothing Callie. You should take it as a compliment!"
"I cannot and will not and shall not EVER take a comparison with that moron as a compliment" Callie grumbled.
"I have to admit, he is not the brightest cookie in the jar. But you know, I'm all about the looks and the money so any Torres is good in my books" Arizona pulled her girlfriend closer and swayed them to the music slowly. "I'm kidding Calliope. You are the most beautiful person in my life, ever, and inside, you are NOTHING like him. And I am drunk and horny and so much in love with you and you're boobs are really really important to me and I am deadly afraid of penisses."
Callie cut her off with a kiss as they continued to sway on the dance floor. They didn't notice the music change to a more upbeat rhythm until Arizona felt herself being pulled out of Callie's arms.
"Oh no not again!" she sighed out loud, but smiled when she saw that it was Carlos who had taken her from her girlfriend.
"Calliope told me you are an excellent dancer" he said as he rolled her in with one arm with a practiced movement.
Arizona just smiled and gratefully took the opportunity to get into her family-in-law their good graces. She enjoyed dancing with Carlos, who was a graceful dancing partner. Fortunately, he was not as fast-paced as her usual dance partners were because she was not sure her body was up to some heavy twirling after all the drinks she had, the Russian vodka burning her vocal chords and the cigar that was still seemed to be simmering in her lungs.
"That woman can dance, mmmm que guapa…" Julio came up next to Callie as they observed the dancing couple.
"Would you just fuck off already?!" Callie exclaimed to which Julio immediately bowed his head and left again. "Moron" Callie whispered. She grinned when she saw Javi with two drinks in his hand, waiting for a moment to steal Arizona and offer her one of his love potions again.
After a few songs, the young people started to leave in the direction of the beach, which was Callie's cue to take Arizona back from her father and show her the second, the GOOD, part of the party. They both took off their shoes as they walked in the sand. A cozy campfire had already been started and Callie's cousins were tuning their instruments. Callie sat down in the sand, indicating for Arizona to take a seat between her legs. She leaned back into Callie's body which was snuggly wrapped around her as they both stared into the fire, enjoying the music. They filled their red plastic cups up with unidentifiable mixed drinks from a cooler and engaged in conversation with the younger part of the family until Callie heard her name.
"Cal, you wanna tttake the rhythm? We should get this party started!" a cousin slurred.
Arizona groaned in displeasure when the warm cocoon she had enveloped herself in disappeared. Callie stood up and took a box-like thing from her cousin. She placed it on the ground and took a seat on it, her legs spread and the bottom part of her dress graciously tucked in between them. Arizona had no idea what was going on, but the wink that Callie sent her way told her that she would enjoy this.
Everyone fell silent as Miguel started singing in a raw voice, his singing accompanied only by the occasional picking of his strings. It was a sharp contrast to the mellow background music they had been providing until now.
Pienso que un sueno parecido no volvera mas
Y me pintaba las manos y la cara de azul
Y me improviso el viento rapido me llevo
Y me hizo a volar en el cielo infinito…
Miguel signed to the other players to join in as he kept the last note on with a rasgueo (*a Spanish way of strumming).
Within moments, the warm air was carrying the rhythmic sounds of three guitar players and the percussion as they all kick started together in an upbeat chorus.
Volare, oh oh
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
Arizona watched in awe as Callie played the cajón between her legs. She was glowing as she set the tempo for the song and improvised whenever a gap allowed it. The interaction between the four players was flawless, as if they had been playing together for years.
Y volando, volando feliz
Yo me encuentro mas alto
Mas alto que el sol
Y mientras que el mundo
Se aleja despacio de mi
Una musica dulce
Se ha tocada solo para mi
"Todos!" Miguel yelled.
Volare, oh oh
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
People had gotten up to dance and Arizona was no exception. It was simply impossible to sit still with this music and soon, she found herself dancing around the bonfire, clapping allow to the catchy rhythm Callie was providing. Her drunken state caused the fire to appear slowly before her eyes, the movements from the people around her going in slow motion leading her to feel like she was in a beautiful trance.
And when Callie started singing along in harmony, Arizona was a goner for sure. She was the epitome of sexy sitting right there. She could certainly understand where Callie's fascination with instruments between legs was coming from. And the fact that Callie's breasts were swaying deliciously with each drum was definitely helping.
The inebriated crowd cheered loudly when the song came to a climatic end. Not a second passed before Callie started tapping a new rhythm. Miguel smiled when he recognized the song she was about to play. All players immediately joined in and soon, the crowd was dancing around the fire again.
Este amor llega asi esta manera
No tiene la culpa
Caballo le ven sabana
Porque muy depreciado,
Por eso no te perdon de llorar
Este amor llega asi esta manera
No tiene la culpa,
Amor de comprementa
Amor del mes pasado
Bebele, bembele, bembele
Bebele, belbelebe….
Bamboleo, bambolea
Porque mi vida, yo la prefiero vivir asi
Bamboleo, bambolea
Porque mi vida, yo la prefiero vivir asi
No tiene pardon de dios
Tu eres mi vida, la fortuna del destino
Pero el destino tendressa para dos
Lo mismo yo que ayer
Lo mismo soy yo
No te encuentro a l'abandon
Es imposible no te encuentro de verdad
Por eso un dia no cuentro si de nada
Lo mismo you que ayer
Yo pienso en ti
After another few solo's from the different guitar players as well as Callie, they brought the second song to an end.
"I need a break guys, I can feel the blisters already!" Callie announced as she tried to rub her burning hands together uncoordinatedly. She felt Arizona wrap her arms around her neck.
"I didn't know you could do that"
"We used to play all the time in high school. I never got to play the drums ssso I sang. But Jaime isn't here t'night so I guess I got to step in" Callie took a big gulp from the bottle of tequila that was being passed around and shakily offered it to Arizona who took a gulp of her own.
The party went on for another hour, until they were almost out of drinks.
"Lesswim!" Miguel yelled, and soon everyone except for Callie and Arizona was pulling of their clothes and running towards the water. The couple laughed when the first ones hit the cold water and started screaming.
"Hmmmm too comfy to get nekkid" Callie mused as she leaned back against the stomach of her girlfriend who still stood behind her. Arizona began running her hands through her hair reverently. The moment she closed her eyes she knew it was a bad idea as her head started spinning and up became down for no reason. Suddenly, Callie felt her stomach clench violently which caused her to pale up and lurch forward. "Oh god…" she groaned and stood up which caused Arizona to jump back. Not two seconds later, Callie was emptying her stomach, which consisted mostly of tequila and cocktails, in the sand not too far away.
Arizona made her way towards the vomiting but was ordered to stay back, so that was what she did. Plus, it was superhard to walk in the sand when drunk. So instead, she swayed on the spot and waited for the brunette to recover.
Callie was just in time to stumble back to the fire as if nothing happened, before the swimmers came back.
"You wanna go?" Arizona asked, not really wanting to but not really remembering the last time she threw up from alcohol. Leaving would be the responsible thing to do.
"Gimme minute" a pale Callie whispered as she sat on the cajón again. She was thankful her family wasn't paying attention to her, as they were to busy getting their clothes back on while their motoric functions were shut off.
"Are you s-" Arizona began asking but soon turned around and took a few steps before emptying her stomach herself. She stood there for a few seconds longer, bent over with her hands on her thighs until she felt Callie's hand on her back.
"We should gggo" she whispered. They covered the wet spot with sand before holding onto each other for dear life as they made their way back to the house. The ballroom was already dark, indicating that the "adult" party was over.
"Was it shots?"
"We didn't exactly drink in the proper or- burp- order" Callie reasoned weakly.
"I need to lie down" Arizona moaned and sank through her knees instantly.
"Arrisssona NO gettup we're almost there" Callie was pulling the blondes arm but it was all dead weight.
"I can't…nooooooooo!" Arizona whined as Callie kept pulling her arm. "You'll break it"
"Pleaaasse work wimme. It is liretelally…litelarry…literarily…pfff 50 feet from my room. I'll race you."
"Winner get's a unicorn?"
"Yes. Gettup now."
Arizona used Callie as leverage and the moment she got up, she stumbled into the dark ballroom and up the stairs to Callie's room with Callie behind her.
They fought with their clothes and stumbled through the room in order to get to bed as soon as possible. Arizona got stuck with her dress over her upper body and her arms in the air. Callie pulled it off with a little too much force, causing Arizona to stumble backwards in just her panties, landing on the bed. "Gnight" she mumbled and was out like a light.
However, the bliss lasted only five seconds, when she jumped up at the sound of Tio Pepe pounding on the wall from the other side. "I heeeaaarrr you ladies! Goodnight!" he yelled through the walls.
"Have mercy…" Callie groaned and pushed Arizona aside to claim her spot in the bed.
"I feellike I'm in college again. Except then I could still perform idde sack when I was drunk."
When she received no response, she managed to lift her head up with great effort.
"Arsssona?"
"Ggggggnnnhhhhhhhh"
Callie pulled a pillow over her head and buried herself in the sheets. "Great"
A/N: crazy foreplay, then two nights partying but no sex? Don't worry, this was all a build up for the next chapter…
PS: The songs are Volare and Bamboleo from the Gipsy Kings
