A/N: Okay so let's clear some stuff up. This is a Calzona story so the main focus of the story is getting them back together. Sofia and Finn are important to the story yes, but they are not the main characters of this story. I initially wanted to wrap up this story in like 28 chapters but now the number has gone way beyond that.

I'm glad that you guys found Finn cute and loved the character I made. And I realize that getting Calzona back together makes them sound like lousy parents, but really it's not. This story is not a daily log of their lives and I possibly can't write everything that they do in a day. I hear everything that you are saying, but in my head this is primarily about them as a couple rather than them as parents.

By the way, I'm loving all the feedback. I think someone asked me a while back what's the age difference between Finn and Sofia. I think it's 4, but I don't remember it anymore. So yeah somewhere around 4 and 6.

Also, about my other story 'Guns and Scalpels', I will be continuing with that as soon as I'm done with this. If any of you all have ideas and suggestions about that story please hit me up! All the help is appreciated since I suck at writing AUs.

Again, thank you for all the support! You guys are awesome!


Chapter 36: Callie

Present Day

I really underestimated what fun a dinner date could be especially with a person you already know so much about. I missed this. Sure, it had been a long time since I actually went on a date with anybody, men or women, but tonight had just been so… effortless.

Arizona was the only reason why it had been that way. Everything was just simple with her. I knew she'd get white wine and start off with a salad. I knew she'd be more interested in the desert section of the menu. I just didn't know that my heart would flutter the way it did when she reached over the table to stroke my hand.

Of course it didn't mean that it was easy. There were times when I was so nervous about saying the wrong thing and destroying our night. I had to keep reminding myself that the both of us wanted this. She wanted me as much as I wanted her. Especially now that we were on the other side of the plane crash and the cheating and of course the custody battle and all the god awful things that happened to us.

I realize how selfish I was being for the past five years, especially with Sofia. But I think that if I hadn't given myself the time or space, I wouldn't have been able to… um come back to her, not this way at least. We spoke about her Fetal surgeries and how excited she was about her new specialty. Before, I just envied her and the fact that she accepted it. It had been tough to not only manage Sofia but also rescue our relationship.

Spoiler alert, I lost them both.

But looking at her speaking about something that she's clearly so passionate about reminded me of my residency years when Ortho was still new to me.

Arizona tried asking me about my research with building new legs, but honestly I didn't want to talk about it. I was scared that she'd ask me about New York. I haven't really... I don't know, I haven't thought about it. I don't know what to do. My life was back in New York, Finn's life was in New York. I cannot just uproot my life for a relationship that has barely started for something that I have spent the last five years building. But on the other hand, that was what I did when Penny got offered her grant.

It just, I have to think about it. Actually, I have a lot of thinking to do.

I just.. I don't know what to do. All I know is that I don't want to think about it, not now at least. So, I continued driving while Arizona sat beside me. Actually, we were supposed to go for our date yesterday. But seeing Arizona in pain was just too much. If she wouldn't let me help her, I'll find newer ways to be there for her. I wasn't going to take her out when the only thing in her mind was how much her leg was hurting.

After some time, I pulled into her driveway before getting out of the car myself.

"So?"

"So" The both of us said at the same time.

I smiled. "I had fun," I started.

"I did too, it's been a while since I went on a date"

"Oh yeah? So... how did I do?" I asked.

"Hmm... not bad" Arizona replied as she smirked at me.

I raised my eyebrow "Not bad? Really?"

"Well, it was nice of you to walk me to my house" she replied.

I cannot believe it, we had an awesome date didn't we?

"I'm just kidding Calliope, I had fun"

I let out a sigh of relief. I don't know why I was still nervous. She made me nervous, the good nervous. The hiding behind Mark as she walked around the OR floor. The 'stealing glances around the hospital' nervous. The 'I have a cure for headaches that doesn't involve coffee' kind of nervous. I guess I was more excited than nervous.

"Thank god, I was beginning to think that I was the only person who had a great time"

"Well, I don't think the date is over yet"

What? I'm dropping her off at her house, in my books the date was pretty much over "Why? What do you have in mind?" I asked.

"According to me, a good date ends with a kiss" Arizona replied.

I smiled, "Hmm… you know, you do have a point" I replied as I saw her leaning in as our lips met.

I felt one of her hands going for my hair while the other made its way to my waist. I felt as if my skin was on fire. I pulled her towards me as I buried my hand in her luscious blonde hair.

She has always been the woman of my dreams, it's just all the trauma got in the middle of everything. This kiss was unlike any of the kisses we had since I kissed her at the attendings lounge the other day. It was sensual and yet very passionate. I could feel that Arizona wanted to do more than just kiss, but I wasn't so sure.

This was our second first date. Sure, I didn't mind taking it further, but I didn't want to if it was just sex for her. She mentioned that she hadn't been out for a while and I didn't want to be just a lay for her. If that meant that I had to wait, then I guess I was waiting.

"Arizona" I said as I pulled away from her. "Are you sure... you want to"

"If I remember, I was promised a massage and I take promises very seriously"

I smiled. How come Arizona knew how to calm me down and say the exact things to do so? "And I tend to keep my promises" I replied as I leaned in for another kiss before I let her pull away to open the door.

God, it felt like I was a teenager again.

"Should I get us some wine?" She asked but I could already see her making her way to the kitchen.

"Yeah, sure" I yelled before I made my way to the couch.

This used to be my house, this used to be our house. This was the first big girl purchase I made. And by big girl purchase, I mean I used my money and not the trust fund money. This was supposed to be the house I raised my children in, the house I grew old in, the house my grandkids would come to visit me in and I would load them up with my home cooked meals. I wanted all of this with Arizona and only her.

I had envisioned this life with her where everything would be okay, sure we'd have a few fights about how we should get new curtains or remodel the kitchen or who would make dinner. We would come home tired from our respective surgeries and just hold each other. I wanted all of that.

But when we actually bought the house and signed the papers, it felt… it felt forced. It felt like we weren't honest with each other. We had even stopped snuggling on bed when we went to sleep. I had a side and she had a side and no one was allowed to cross that line. It started off as 'it's really hot and I'm sticky and sweaty' but then neither of us initiated anything. As if both of us were just okay with it.

I should have said something, I should have done something. I shouldn't have let things get so bad between us.

Just then I heard Arizona exiting the kitchen "I got wine and I have some-" before she could complete her sentence I got off the couch and pinned her against a wall and pressed my lips onto hers. I heard the wine splash around a bit but I didn't care and by the way she moaned, I don't think she cared either.

I nipped her bottom lip as my hands traveled to her butt and gave it a firm squeeze. "Callie.." she whispered against my lips but I wasn't done.

I lowered my head and started leaving a trail of kisses down her neck, before I reached the skin on her collarbone and applied a little more pressure. It shouldn't leave a mark but it was enough to drive her crazy. Arizona pulled me closer towards her or well as best as she could while holding two wine glasses in her hand. So, I pulled away, knowing that it would rile her up.

"I think I promised you a massage," I said but Arizona was looking at me like a kid who's favorite toy had been pried out of her hands.

Arizona placed the glasses on the nearby cabinet before putting her hands on my waist. "I guess I can wait for a while"

"Oh, can you wait for like thirty minutes?" I asked.

Arizona smirked "I was thinking about an hour or two"

"An hour or two sounds lovely actually" I replied before pulling her lips back to mine. This time I felt her hooking her fingers in the belt loops of my jeans trying to pull me as close to her as possible.

I gently took her bottom lip between my teeth biting her a little bit as I felt her hands caressing my breasts over my shirt. I was pretty sure that she could feel my nipples through the flimsy material of my shirt. Just then she pinched my nipples as her tongue entered my mouth, I guess that answers my question. I couldn't help but let a moan escape from my lips.

"Should we take this to the bedroom?" Arizona asked breathlessly.

I nodded, I don't know where my voice was. It was funny that not two minutes ago I was unsure about having sex with her and now I can't think about anything but pleasuring her. She did that to me. She made me lose myself in her. She was so beautiful and smart and I wanted her to be mine again. Arizona took her hand in mine as she led me upstairs to our bedroom, um her bedroom.

It's been a while since I came here… hmm around six to seven years in fact. Since the divorce, it has been really hard for me to keep living here, so I left the house to her. By the looks of it, she hasn't changed much of it. Everything pretty much still looked the same, it was just... my stuff wasn't there anymore.

I guess Arizona sensed that something was bothering me so she just took my hand in hers and rubbed circles on the back of my hands.

No! I was not going to ruin in the night by thinking about the past. I was going to live in the moment and not let things that have already happened bother me.

So, I pushed Arizona on the bed before I crawled up her body and kissed her on her lips. Arizona pulled me down harder as her hands started making their way up my shirt before she caught the hem of it and pulled it up all the way and threw it somewhere behind me. She wasted no time before I felt her hand reaching behind me, deftly removing the clasp of my bra and getting rid of it too.

The air felt a lot cooler against my overheated skin. Arizona suddenly flipped us over as a moan escaped my lips. Now Arizona was straddling me. Her lips went to my breast, kissing it gingerly before she took my nipple into her mouth and took it between her teeth. That was definitely going to leave a mark, but I didn't care. Arizona knew her way around a woman's body. Sure, I didn't have a lot of experience before and technically she was the second woman I had ever been with, but my god, she knew exactly what my body wanted even before I knew what I wanted.

I slowly withdrew my hand that was tangled in her hair and let them wander down until I reached her waist. I let my hand wander lower and rubbed her over her jeans. Arizona threw her head back as she realized my nipple from her mouth as she looked down at me.

I thought Arizona was about to say something but she just removed her shirt and got rid of her own bra at the same time. God I missed her so much, I missed her body so much. I sat up in bed as she put her legs on either side of me before I took her breast in the palms of my hand lightly stroked her nipples. Arizona moaned into my ear as I felt her grinding against me.

Hearing her make those sounds just turned me on even more. So, I dug one of my hands into her jeans and touched her clit. Arizona was dripping wet. Suddenly, the only thing I wanted to do was to taste her, to feel her coming on my lips, to have her moaning my name as she rode her orgasm.

So, I lowered her onto the mattress.

I felt Arizona fighting me as I rubbed her harder. "Calliope…" she tried as she tried to push me onto my back.

"Shh, I just… let me do this first" I replied before pressing a kiss against her lips and started kissing her down her neck. I stopped briefly on her breasts, taking them into my mouth, one by one as my hands tugged her jeans. Arizona helped me get rid of them as we pulled her panties off together.

Arizona looked up at me. There was no point in teasing her, I could tell that she was close, hell I was close. Just watching her did that to me. So, I gently grabbed her thighs and put her legs on my shoulders as I leaned down and put my tongue on her slit.

"Oh, Callie" Arizona moaned.

I loved that sound. It was the best sound ever. I increased the pressure as I held onto her butt. I inserted two fingers into her as I felt her back arching. She tasted amazing. Everything about her was amazing. I pulled back a bit but kept pumping my fingers into her. Arizona's eyes were tightly shut as soft moans escaped her. She was truly breathtaking. I leaned down and gently bit her inner thigh causing her to moan even louder.

She was close I could tell, so I quickened my pace as I pinched her nipple with my other hand.

"Don't stop," Arizona crouched.

"Oh sweetie, I don't plan on" I said. Did I just call her sweetie? But I guess Arizona hadn't noticed it. "Come for me Arizona" I whispered against her ear as I took her earlobe into my teeth.

I felt Arizona's inner walls tightening around my fingers as Arizona came.

I gently rolled off of her and laid down beside her, watching Arizona come was one of the best things ever.

Arizona turned to her side and faced me "That was amazing" she said as she leaned in and kissed me.

"So… I suppose it's safe to say that the date wasn't just 'not bad'" I mocked her as gently tucked her hair at the back of her ear.

Arizona raised an eyebrow "Oh shut up, you know I was kidding"

"Whatever makes you sleep better at night" I replied as she lightly wacked me on my shoulder.

"I don't think there's going to be a lot of sleeping tonight"

"Oh really?" I asked.

"Yeah… just give me a moment, I'm not as young as I was before"

"Take all the time you need, I'm not going anywhere"

"Even if you tried to, I wouldn't let you" Arizona replied as she leaned in and kissed me again.


A/N: So… I feel like this chapter was due since like what chapter one? Also the fanfiction error is fixed so, I guess things are back to normal!
