Chapter 37: Life is a dance

Addison Montgomery's POV

My two friends came back inside, both smiling and obviously both very happy about the discussion they had just had with Callie's mother.

I was sitting in the kitchen and quietly eating a piece of the cake they had bought. Callie came up to me and helped herself to a piece.

"You look really happy tonight!" I told her.

"Indeed, I am extremely happy tonight. I have nothing but reasons to be happy during this evening. I have an extraordinary wife who also gets along visibly well with my mother and two wonderful children."

"Just know that I'm just proud of you and also proud of the way you've evolved over the last few years since we have been friends."

"You too have evolved a lot."

"When I first came to Seattle, you were the girl who married an intern in Las Vegas and now you're a happy woman, you're a famous surgeon, you're super happy with a great wife and you have two perfect kids."

"The only thing that hasn't changed is our friendship. You helped give birth to my daughter and you are the godmother of my son."

"Our friendship will never change. I believe that psychologists have proven that when we have been friends for more than seven years, we will always be friends. It's been over seven years so I guess our friendship will last for the rest of our lives."

"Anyway, you'll have to stay close since you're Will's godmother. In fact, tomorrow night, we're going to have a little girl's night at home. When are you planning to come back to LA?"

"I have not yet booked my plane ticket to go home so I will be more than happy to enjoy this evening with you."

"Jen, who works with Arizona at the center, will come with her daughter Lily who is a good friend of Sofia. The two girls will have a sleepover while we settle into the living room. Owen, my parents and Arizona's parents will go home tomorrow afternoon."

At that moment, we heard all the cries of little William who was waking up and crying. Callie ran upstairs to rock her baby and about ten minutes later we saw her come down with the baby in her arms.

"Apparently," Callie announced as she arrived at the bottom of the stairs, "this little gentleman really doesn't want to sleep."

"He surely wanted to enjoy all the people who made the trip for his baptism." Arizona said, placing a kiss on her son's forehead. "This baby is so irresistible. I could even eat it."

"That's true," I commented, "it is a gorgeous baby."

A few minutes later, the little boy fell asleep again in Callie's arms and Arizona went upstairs to let him sleep in his bed. Callie and Arizona's parents stayed home while Owen and I returned to our hotel shortly before midnight.

Callie's POV

After dropping off our parents and Owen at the airport, we went home to spend a little time with our family before our friends arrived home.

It was a happy time. The four of us played in the living room, laughing and smiling. Watching my daughter play with her little brother was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life. We looked at them with Arizona and we both smiled at the vision.

At about nineteen o'clock, we had our son eaten before putting him to bed. As soon as we came down, we heard the doorbell ring.

It was Jen and her daughter who had arrived. Sofia ran to her friend. The two girls were the same age, went to the same school and had become friends.

The two girls went up to the room while we started to prepare dinner for the girls and some small appetizers for us. The girls started to eat dinner in the kitchen while we continued to chat in the living room while keeping an eye on them.

Twenty minutes later we were joined by Addison. She kissed Sofia on the forehead and then settled in with us.

For the first few moments of our girl's night together. As long as our daughters weren't far away, we just talked about our lives. Addison and Jen instantly got along well. However, once our daughters were upstairs in the room, we quickly made the decision to spice up our discussions.

"Girls," Jen suggested, "what do you think of us playing a good old Truth Or Dare?"

"To be honest," Addison answered, "I would like to point out that it's been almost thirty years since I've played this game."

"I'm not talking about the games we used to play in high school." Jen corrected her. "You know, there are a lot of versions of this game that exist now, there are new apps. They're much sexier versions, so they're funnier."

"It could be fun." I replied while Arizona nodded its head.

Jen spent a few moments looking at her phone and then she started the game, a game that would really liven up our evening.

Arizona's POV

Once the game was all set up by Jen, the four of us sat down around the living room table to play.

"Well," Jen began, "the first player is Callie. Truth or Dare?"

"Truth." Callie answered. "Anyway, I have nothing to hide."

"What part of your body are you most proud of?"

"My legs," Callie replied with a proud look on her face, "I love my legs."

It was true that Callie's legs were one of the wonders of the world.

"Next player: Arizona. Truth or dare?"

"Truth." I answered to follow my wife.

"What is the most exciting place where you had sex?"

"One summer," I narrated, "when Sofia was approximately 8 months old, we both went to a seminar. Sofia was with Mark, so we had all the freedom we wanted. We made love in the conference bathroom and that was definitely the most exciting place."

"Indeed, it was." Callie replied, remembering that moment.

"Well," Jen continued, "now, it's my turn!"

"Truth or Dare?" Callie asked.

"I will go for Dare. My challenge is to take off one of my clothes, so I'm going to take off one of my shoes."

Saying this, she took off one of her high-heeled shoes.

"Now it's time for our dear Addison."

"Dare," Addi answered, "always be in the action."

"You need to kiss someone around this table."

"I will choose to kiss Callie. Arizona, will you allow me?"

"Of course you are allowed." I answered with a smile.

Addison stood up and briefly placed her lips on Callie's. We ended the evening by continuing to play the game. The challenges continued to be a bit daunting but honestly, it made me see my two friends in a new and much naughty light.

At the end of the evening, everyone went home, Addison went straight to the airport to catch a private jet home and I went to bed next to my wife.

We sat down next to each other and started to hug. This wifely moment was so tender and we fell asleep with a big smile on our faces.
