I can hear Arizona coming up the stairs. I wonder how she is going to react to my note. I'm mad, I'm upset, I'm all over the place. It's not a secret that I love reading celebrity gossip. So how am I supposed to feel as I'm reading other gossip and, I see a headline to make my stomach turn. It read: Arizona Robbins seen out with new brunette. As I continued to read the article, it said she was wearing her engagement ring but the pictures showed them holding hands as they got out of the car. Arizona also had her arm around her as it looked like they were leaving the club. There seemed to be a ton of pictures of them. The worst one in my opinion was in the car, where this lady seemed to have her head on my fiancé's shoulder. The jealousy and anger I feel is driving me crazy. I withhold texting her to ask though. I'd rather talk to her face to face, so I don't respond to any of her texts she sent me through the day. Although I want to talk to her face to face, I feel like it's too late for anything to get accomplished.
She told me that her and Teddy were going to dinner with a former athlete who was interested in working for them. Why aren't there pictures of Teddy with them? I feel so sick to my stomach right now, and it just gets worse when I hear a loud pounding on the door.
"Callie open the door..." Arizona sounds really annoyed on the other side.
I don't answer so she knocks again, this time harder. "Callie, I know you and I know you are awake. Open the door..."
"Go sleep in the guest room Arizona. I don't want to talk about this tonight!" I yell back as I lay on our bed.
"I don't even get a chance to explain? I'm automatically guilty?"
"I don't want to talk about this right now. It's late and we are both tired."
"So let me in so I can sleep in my own bed." Arizona says again. Her voice is tired and annoyed.
"I don't think you should be allowed to sleep in here, go sleep downstairs and we will talk about this when we are both more awake."
I hear her mumbling on the other side of the door then it gets quiet. I'm assuming she went downstairs to one of the guest bedrooms. I lay there staring at the ceiling, trying my hardest to fall asleep even though I have too many thoughts running through my head. I get up and head to my en-suite to wash my face again, because my eyes are burning.
As I walk out of the bathroom, I stop in my tracks. Arizona is now standing in our bedroom with a screwdriver in her hand, clearly she jimmied the lock open. Her pajamas and the iPad that I left outside the door are in her hand.
"This is my bedroom too and you can't lock me out." She says walking towards me. She sidesteps me and walks into the bathroom, handing me the iPad. I throw it on the bed and turn around to face her. "I'm too tired to argue about this right now, if you don't want to see me, you go downstairs." She says and begins to close the bathroom door.
I stop it with my hand. "It's my house Arizona, if I don't want you up here you shouldn't be up here." I snap, mad because I have all these feeling dealing with her.
Her eyes look tired and hurt as she turns around to look at me. "So being engaged to you doesn't matter? It's only your house?"
"When my fiancé lies and cheats it is." I snap back.
"So that's it? I don't even get to explain things? I'm just a cheater and that's it?" Arizona says angrily. "Oh and everything you read on the internet is true. I forgot"
"Pictures don't lie Arizona."
"Ok, let's take a look at those pictures..." Arizona storms into the room and grabs the iPad again. She opens to the site I saved. "Oh this one looks like she is holding my hand as I stepped out of the car...maybe cause she was just being a lady and helping me out if the car. I mean I was wearing those heels that are a little high." Arizona says as she holds up the iPad. "I must of slept with her. Oh look at this one, we were dancing. There is at least a foot between us, must have taken her home then right?"
Arizona tosses the iPad back on the bed and walks back to the bathroom. Not done with this argument, I follow her. "You lied to me, Arizona. How am I supposed to think?"
"How did I lie to you?"
"You told me you were going to this dinner with Teddy. I don't see any pictures with Teddy. You also didn't tell me anything about this party? Did Teddy even go to this meeting with you? Seems to me you are awful mad, why because you were caught?"
"Caught doing what, exactly?" Arizona questions as she walks past me back into the bedroom.
"Caught being with another woman, Arizona!" I yell at her.
"Yep you caught me...I flew all the way to California to hook up with another woman, and went to a setting where there was paparazzi, so I could get caught." Arizona says sarcastically.
"I don't hear you denying anything?" I say.
"Because there is nothing to deny since I didn't do anything!" Arizona yells back at me. "You know what I can't do this." She says as she grabs her phone and her suitcase she had rolled into the room.
"Can't do what?" I ask as she is walking around our room picking random things up.
"I shouldn't have to justify myself. I did absolutly nothing wrong! I met Carina at dinner by myself because Teddy got sick when we got to L.A. We had our dinner then she invited me to this party. She held my hand as I got out of the car so I wouldn't trip. Once inside she introduced me to some people, we danced, she got super drunk and we left. I helped her into the car and she fell asleep with her head on my shoulder. I helped her back to her room. That was it. I got a text from her the next morning apologizing for how she acted the night before." Arizona says taking her phone out to show me the text. "I didn't do anything wrong."
I turn my eyes from the phone and back to her and don't say anything.
"I can't be with someone who can't trust me."
"You're one to talk! Do I have to remind you how jealous you were around Penny?" I yell.
"That's totally different and you know it! She liked you! Carina is just going to work for Teddy and I. There are zero feelings there." Arizona yells back.
"Do you find her hot?" I ask. I probably don't want to know.
"What does that have to do with anything?" She asks.
"Answer me! Do you find her hot?"
"I'm not answering that. You are just going to turn it around against me." She says and I know it's true. I'm so mad at her and right now I'm finding reasons to get more pissed.
"I can't be with someone who doesn't trust me." Arizona says again. "You know what? I couldn't wait to come home to you. I couldn't wait to tell you how much I loved you. I couldn't wait to tell you how I don't care where get married as long as you are my wife...but now, I don't even want to be around you, much less be married to you."
I just stare at her, dumbfounded.
"Calliope, I proposed to you in front of your family. I left my home to move down here with you. All that and you still don't trust me!? You still don't think I'm committed to you." Arizona sighs. "I don't know what else I can do to prove it to you."
Arizona looks at me with as a single tear slides down her face. "You know what, you win. I'll go to a hotel for the night. I think you have some issues you need to work out." With that Arizona walks out the bedroom door. After a minute I here the door to the garage close and then a car pulling away. What just happened?
I just stand there for a few minutes, staring at the door she just walked out of. That's when the tears start. I don't want this to be over. I don't want us to be over.
Was I overreacting? I feel like she should have told me. Plus she really didn't deny anything. I sit on the bed and I just begin to sob. Baxter comes and sits next to me, his head in my lap. This could possibly be one of the worst days of my life.
