Callie turned on her side, propped her head on her elbow, picked up the feather and started brushing it up and down Arizona's body teasingly, watching the little bumps rise on her skin and said nonchalantly, "I was woken by a lightning storm and being the amazing wife that I am, I realized you hadn't taken any Tylenol for your leg and went in search of some so you wouldn't be in any pain. Since I couldn't find any in the bathroom, I decided to look in the suitcases." She reached behind her, picked up the small black bag, plopped it on the bed between them and continued, "Instead, I found this." Arizona, who was lying on her side, wrists handcuffed to the bedpost above her, smiled sweetly and said almost like a question, "Birthday present?" Callie reached in the bag, pulled out a small vibrating bullet, turned it on, reached out, started circling Arizona's hard pink nipples, first one, then the other, over and over again, and responded, "I see, so you were going to wrap it up with a card that said, 'My dearest Calliope, for your birthday, you get to have your way with me.' Is that what you were going to do?" Arizona's sensitive nipples felt as if they were on fire and she needed Callie to touch her, to grab her breasts, to squeeze them, put her mouth on them. Shaking her head she replied sheepishly, "Not exactly." Callie nodded her head in understanding.

Moving the vibrating toy lower, she laid it flat across Arizona's pubic bone on her mound which protects her clit and cupped it with her hand, knowing Arizona could feel it on her clit and was doing her best not to buck her hips into the touch. Watching her face as blue eyes rolled back in ecstasy, she inferred, "So, had I not woken first, would it be fair to say, that I might have found myself in this position?" Arizona moaned and nodded her head. Callie placed the vibrating bullet directly on her clit, pinched her nipple and demanded, "Use your words Arizona." Arizona arched into the touch on her breast, rolled her hips into the vibration on her clit and gasped out, "Yes, that was my plan. Fuck Calliope!" Callie reached into the bag, found the little suctioning toy that brought her so much pleasure and recalled, "Ahh, I think I remember this, though I didn't get to see it because I was blindfolded. I don't think I'll blindfold you though. I want you to know what's coming." She picked up the toy, showed it to Arizona and asked, "Is this the toy that had me screaming and writhing and begging to be fucked?" Arizona's eyes grew wide, she remembered that toy too and it had her wife nearly coming off the bed, yanking at her restraints and she stammered out, "Th…that's the one."

Callie reached for one of the soft pillows, laid it behind Arizona's back so it would tilt her pelvis up and bring her butt off the bed just a little, then helped her turn to lie on her back. Holding the little toy in her hand, she asked herself, "Hmmm where should I start?" Callie looked down and realized she still had the vibrating bullet in her hand as well, got a glint in her eyes, slowly inserted it into Arizona's opening and stated, "Hold this for a minute." Arizona jumped at the unexpected sensation, then whimpered at the amazing feeling and her legs started to tremor and quake as she fought back her orgasm. Callie turned the little toy on low, lifted it to Arizona's breast and watched as the expression on her face changed from surprise to one of absolute pleasure. She couldn't help but lean forward, take the other breast in her mouth and try to mimic the action of the toy. She slipped her leg between Arizona's thighs and allowed her to rub herself against it for friction. Switching breasts, she moved the toy to the other breast and began to nibble and suck at the other nipple while Arizona bucked and rolled her hips faster and harder against her thigh. Callie turned up the toy and began to bite and flick at the breast in her mouth until Arizona's entire body began to tremble and she cried out "Shit, Fuck, I'm coming, fuck fuck fuck." Callie slowed her pace, removed the vibrator, but gave Arizona no time to recover and lowered herself to settle between her legs.

Tossing the bullet aside for the moment, Callie turned the suctioning vibrator back down and placed it directly over her wife's clit, knowing aside from the vibrating and suctioning, there was also a small piece flicking back and forth inside. Arizona tugged at the handcuffs and rolled her head back and forth moaning at the sensation. She lifted her hips straight off the bed, pressing herself further into the toy, even though every nerve in her body was dangling on the edge of that point between pleasure and pain and was telling her to stop. Callie turned the toy up and watched as Arizona bucked her hips and was torn between slithering away and giving into the intense pleasure and finally rolled her hips and decided to give into the feeling that would lead her to her euphoria. Turning the toy up more, Arizona cried out once again, tugged and pulled at the restraints on her wrists, rolled her head back and forth and kept up a mantra of, "Yes, yes, yes, fuck, fuck, yes, feels so good." Callie could feel her own body come to life as her gut clenched and the arousal pooled between her legs just from watching her wife.

Seeing that Arizona's opening was pulsating, she watched as the creamy arousal nearly flowed from her channel, she turned the toy up as high as it would go and moved it down to cover the opening and observed as Arizona's entire upper body thrashed and jerked trying to sit up, to gain some sort of control. Arizona felt as though she were about to lose her mind. The pleasure was so intense, she could barely contain herself and wanted so badly to chase after her orgasm, to take control of her body, to decide when she got to come, but all she could do in this moment was feel, trust in her wife that she would take her to the place she wanted to be. Opening her eyes, she found black eyes staring at her, watching her lose control, but the look in those eyes told her to trust her, told her she'd be there to catch her, so she just let herself feel, allowed herself to be free and to give up complete control. Closing her eyes, she focused on the absolute pleasure, the suctioning of her opening, the flicking of the tiny silicone piece just inside her opening which was driving her absolutely mad, then the vibration of the toy which was setting her entire lower half on fire. Just when she thought she couldn't feel anymore, couldn't take anything else, she felt the small vibrating bullet being placed firmly on her clit and the moment she felt that she flew the fuck apart and the last thing she remembered was screaming her wife's name at the top of her lungs before everything went black.

Callie could see how close Arizona was to reaching her climax. Her eyes were glazed over, her face was turning red, the muscles in her stomach were rolling and her entire body was beaded with sweat. Her hips were rolling and bucking into the toy, her breasts were bouncing, she was crying out and moaning and she was the most beautiful sight in that moment, Callie almost didn't want to end it, but she knew Arizona couldn't take much more. Reaching next to her, she picked up the small bullet, turned it on, placed it directly on the swollen bundle of nerves and couldn't contain her own orgasm as the blonde screamed her name, pulled at the bedpost, twisted and turned her body, shook and convulsed, went completely stiff, then passed out. Quickly reaching in the bag, Callie unlocked the hand cuffs, pulled Arizona into her lap, poured some of her water into her hand and wiped it on her face, patted her cheeks a few times and whispered, "Come on baby, come back to me, come on baby, wake up." Arizona blinked her eyes, looked straight at Callie and declared, "That mother fucker should come with a warning label." Callie chuckled, kissed her softly, and sighed, "You scared me. Are you okay?"

Arizona took a deep breath, wrapped her arms around Callie's neck drew her in for a long sexy kiss, pulled back and whispered, "That was amazing, but I feel bad, it's your birthday and I've had two amazing orgasms and you haven't had any." Callie blushed, rubbed the back of her neck and responded, "That last one tossed me right over the edge." Arizona looked down between them and asked, "Yeah?" Callie nodded shyly, and Arizona brushed their lips together and murmured against her lips, "So fucking hot." Callie smiled brightly and asked, "Seriously?" Arizona nodded and replied, "The fact that I turn you on that much. Fuck yeah its hot." Callie kissed her nose and felt better, she wasn't sure why it embarrassed her that she came without even being touched.

Arizona nodded toward the book and asked, "Did you find anything interesting in there?" Callie smirked and replied, "I was pretty much looking at the pages you had marked, you're a very dirty girl, Mrs. Robbins-Torres." Arizona ran her hands down Callie's chest, rolled her nipples in her hands and quipped, "You wouldn't have me any other way, Mrs. Robbins-Torres." Callie closed her eyes and whispered, "Absolutely not." Callie reached for the book and asked, "Do you really want to try that thing?" Arizona nodded enthusiastically, turned to a particular page, and pointed out, "This one." Callie tilted her head and asked, "The front crab?" Arizona nodded and explained, "This looks like the best way, but I need to put my leg on." Callie looked at the picture again, it didn't look too hard and responded, "Okay, we can do that."

Arizona moved off her lap, reached in the bag, pulled out two colorful rings and tossed them to Callie and asked, "Can you put these on it while I put on my leg?" Callie looked at the rings and asked, "What are these for?" She got her answer, or at least part of it when she started to put the first one on and it started to vibrate. Figuring out she touched a little button, she turned it off, then slid the other on as well. Once Arizona got her leg on, she pulled out the toys they normally used on one another, handed Callie hers and explained, "I was looking at this thing one day and tried to figure out how it worked, like…it's really long, how would we not hurt each other, so I ran across an article about these rings and they are like stoppers, you can buy normal ones or these that vibrate for those who might have trouble climaxing just from vaginal stimulation, so I ordered these online. It said to put them at the length you and your partner feel most comfortable. So we compare them to the ones we usually use and put the ring there." Callie chuckled and replied, "Correction, you're a nerdy dirty girl." Arizona flew across the bed tackling Callie onto her back, rubbing their bodies together in the most delicious way, slipping her thigh between Callie's legs, rubbing it back and forth and defended, "I'm a thorough dirty girl."

Lowering her head, she traced the outside of Callie's plump red lips with her tongue, then the seam, waiting for them to part, slipped her tongue inside, and deepened the kiss, slowly making love to her mouth with her tongue, gliding it in and out, before Callie captured it, sucked it into her mouth and rolled them over so she was now on top and it was her thigh rubbing against Arizona's sex. Pulling back, both of them gasping for air, Callie asked, "Are you ready?" Arizona nodded and husked, "God yes." Arizona clamored toward the top of the bed and Callie moved to sit in front of her. She brought the lube and the toy and placed it between them, lifted Arizona's legs so they crossed her own, slid both hands up Arizona's legs, up her sides, turned them inward to caress her breasts and circle her nipples with her thumbs, and leaned in for a long languorous kiss. Arizona lifted her hands to hold Callie's hands on her breasts for a moment then slid them down her wrists, up her arms to her muscular biceps, over her strong shoulders and up to massage her scalp and hold her head closer to deepen the kiss.

Callie lowered her hands to Arizona's lower lips, with her left hand, she gently massaged her clit with her thumb, brought the toy between them with her right hand then lifted her hand to circle Arizona's tight opening with two fingers, preparing it for the intrusion of the larger, thicker toy. She slowly penetrated her opening and began scissoring her fingers, feeling the give then added a third while listening for the moans of pleasure and feeling the arousal building within. She continued the small circles around the now swollen bud and felt the inner walls of Arizona's sex clutching at her fingers and knew it was time. Pulling out, she broke the kiss, lifted her fingers to her lips, licked Arizona's arousal from her fingers while looking her directly in the eyes and lifted the toy, squirted some of the lube on it and rubbed it around then lifted it to the dripping opening of her sex. Arizona leaned back on her hands for support, dug her heals into the bed, locked her eyes on Callie's and gave her a quick nod of approval and sighed in delight as she felt the head of the silicone toy slowly begin pushing into her tight channel.

Looking into navy blue eyes, Callie could see the pleasure, the desire, shining back at her, she was only mildly surprised when Arizona started rolling her hips as she slowly pushed the toy deeper and began to feel her inner walls clutching at it as well. Arizona looked down between them and watched as the fake phallus slowly entered her. As she felt it slowly fill her, she realized it wasn't enough, she wanted more, she was starting to understand why Callie liked that first hard thrust. Pulling her hips back slightly so she could feel the head right at her opening, she pushed herself forward and screamed out in relief as she felt the small bite of pain, the satisfaction of being filled, the breathlessness from the shock of it all. Looking at Callie's concerned face, she laughed slightly and exclaimed, "God that felt good." Callie let out the breath she was holding and nodded her head. It did feel good, to her at least. It was like a rush unlike any she had felt before. She allowed Arizona to settle for a moment then went to move the toy, to begin to fuck her and the blonde shook her head and proclaimed, "Not without you." Nodding, Callie lubed up her end then started to prepare herself for the intrusion when Arizona knocked her hand out of the way.

Due to the way they were sitting, Arizona had a direct view into her wife's sex and could see her swollen clit and pulsating core. When Callie lowered her hand to ready herself for the toy, though watching her wife pleasure herself was one of her favorite things, she didn't want to be a bystander this time. Knocking the strong tan hand out of the way, she began flicking at the red bundle of nerves with her thumb and inserted her first two fingers to the second knuckle without any warning, making Callie buck her hips and cry out, "Fuck yes!" Arizona didn't scissor her fingers so much as she wiggled them back and forth opposite one another, prompting Callie to toss her head back and moan. Lifting the toy, Arizona began bumping it against Callie's clit and could feel the movement in her own channel. Pulling her fingers out, she too brought them to her mouth and licked them clean of Callie's arousal while staring her wife in the eye, listening to the growl that radiated from deep within.

Lowering her hand to the center between the two bands while supporting herself on her other hand, Arizona positioned the head of the toy at Callie's opening, pushed the small button on both rings to make them vibrate, which effectively caused the entire toy to vibrate making them both roll their eyes at the pleasure of it, then looked at Callie and thrust her hips forward impaling her wife with the faux penis evoking a loud, "Oh holy fuck! Yes Arizona, fuck me." With both women resting on their hands, legs crossed over one another and feet flat on the bed, they began with a slow rocking motion, trying to become accustomed to the new toy and the new position. Before long, they picked up a smooth rhythm that brought them both the most pleasure.

When they agreed to purchase the toy and the book, they did so more as a joke, neither thinking the other was serious about using it and both thinking more about the kink factor than anything. But now, in this position as they basically fucked themselves and each other, in a position that allowed the other to watch as the silicone phallus moved in and out of their core, as their opening quivered around it, smothering it with arousal, as their breasts bounced and swayed with the movement of their bodies, as their chests rose and fell with each shallow breath, as their jaws clenched or opened at the strength of the pleasure they were feeling, as they stared into one another's eyes, they realized this was one of the most intense, passionate, intimate sexual experiences they had ever shared together or with anyone else.

Callie's arms were burning from holding up her own weight, her stomach clenching from fighting back her impending orgasm, her legs stinging and tingling from holding up both her lower body as well as Arizona's as they thrust toward one another but she didn't want to stop, she couldn't stop, so she continued to fight off her orgasm. All she could focus on was the goddess in front of her and how her legs and arms rippled each time she pushed forward, how her hips rolled into the toy making it go deeper into both of them, how her beautiful pert breasts stood at attention and jiggled slightly as she thrust forward, how the veins in her long neck popped out just waiting to be sucked and licked, how her face was beaded with sweat, and how her sparkling blue eyes not only peered into her soul but opened up to allow her to see into her own.

Arizona could feel both of their orgasms racing toward them. She could sense how close they were in the grip of the toy alone, but she was determined to fight it, to prolong it if for no other reason than to watch the magnificent beauty before her. It was rare that she got to watch her lover in the throes of passion. For a brief moment, she allowed herself to focus on Callie's sex as it released and received the faux penis, feel within her own sex how her inner walls tightened around it, pulled it in. Lifting her gaze, she watched as the taut toned abdomen clenched and rolled, she could feel the strength in the legs that held them both up, watched the tan biceps flex with each buck of her hips, licked her lips when full firm breasts swayed with the movement of her body, ached to bite on that lower lip as her mouth opened just slightly, then finally locked eyes with her wife and bared her soul to her, showed her all the love, all the longing, all the trust she held for her, showed her how truly intimate this moment was for her.

With blue eyes locked on brown, both women increased their pace, their hips moving back and forth in a see-saw type action, each of them bumping up against the vibrating ring. Callie hissed out, "So close." Arizona nodded, "Me too, what do you…ahhh fuck…need?" Callie closed her eyes briefly, continued to thrust, opened them, looked into Arizona's eyes and husked out, "You." Arizona nodded, put all her weight on her left hand, brought her right hand forward, and pinched and rolled Callie's clit with her fingers until she screamed, "Yesssss baby, FUUUUUUCK!" Then her whole body shook and she fell to her back. Callie's movements caused the vibrating ring to push up against Arizona's clit and sent her over the edge along with her making her entire body go stiff followed by slight tremors and she fell back as well, both of their legs still tangled together.

Breathing heavily, Callie lifted her head, carefully removed the toy from both of them, tossed it to the side, climbed up the bed and pulled a still trembling Arizona into her arms and pulled the covers up over them. Arizona wrapped her arm around Callie's waist, snuggled into the front of her body, kissed her softly and whispered, "Happy birthday." Callie smiled, kissed her forehead and replied, "I'd say it's getting off to a good start. What do you think about a little nap?" Arizona, who was already half asleep nodded her head under Callie's chin, snuggled even closer, and pulled her wife's arm around her back.

The next time Callie opened her eyes, she realized she was alone in the bed and though the blinds were drawn, she could hear the ocean, which meant Arizona must have opened the patio doors for her. She sat up, stretched, and was about to go in search of her wife when she was hit with the most delicious aroma coming from the direction of the stairs. Looking toward the door, she saw Arizona carrying a tray loaded with a plate full of food, some fresh fruit, a cup of coffee for her and a glass of juice for Arizona. Smiling at her wife, she asked, "What's this?" Arizona smiled and replied, "This is your birthday breakfast. I couldn't decide, so you get your favorite French toast and bacon from me and your abuela's omelette along with some of the fruit we had cut up, and your Brazilian dark roast just the way you like it." Callie looked at all the food, which seemed like it was enough to feed a small army, saw that Arizona even remembered to put the powdered sugar on her French toast then asked, "You got abuela's omelette recipe?" Arizona smiled, pointed at her dimples and quipped, "Irresistible." Callie laughed, kissed her nose, then offered, "Come sit down, I know this isn't all for me." Arizona kissed her back and replied, "Let me go start your bath, I know that thing will take a while to fill up." Callie arched her brow and hummed, "Mmm I even get a bath today? Are you going to bathe me?" Arizona leaned out of the bathroom door and replied, "Depends on if you're good or not."

While they were finishing up their breakfast, Callie asked, "So do I get to know the plan for the rest of the day or is it still a secret?" Arizona thought about it for a few minutes then decided she could say just enough without giving away some of the surprises she had planned. Feeding the last bite of the omelette to Callie who moaned and whined when she saw it was all gone, she revealed, "First, we have an appointment at the marina we passed at the beginning of the Malecon at 1:00 pm, then after that, we are going to spend the rest of the day on Stone Island." Callie furrowed her brows and asked, "Are we taking a boat to the island?" Arizona shook her head and Callie asked, "Are we going sailing?" Arizona thought about it for a second, then shook her head no. At a loss, Callie asked, "Are we going scuba diving?" Arizona picked up a piece of fruit, popped it in her mouth and answered, "Nope, and we aren't going anywhere if you don't get your sexy ass in the tub which is probably overflowing by now." She took the tray from Callie's lap, sat it on the bedside table, ripped the covers from her and pulled her out of bed and into the bathroom.

Once they were out of the bath, having taken their time washing one another thoroughly, Callie stayed in the bathroom to clean up and style her hair while Arizona went into the bedroom to get dressed and braid her hair in the vanity mirror. When Callie emerged from the bathroom in just a towel, she saw that Arizona was dressed in a rather modest black one piece bathing suit for which she was slightly thankful. She knew it was Arizona's choice, but she also knew her wife was sexy as hell and preferred if she showed off as little of her body as possible. Though even in this bathing suit, little was left to the imagination and she looked absolutely gorgeous. Walking up behind her wife, she put her hands on her hips, kissed her neck and whispered, "Ya know, we could just stay here all day." Arizona turned around in her arms snatched her towel from her and responded, "As much as I'd like that, I have a big day planned for our anniversary and your birthday my love, so put your suit on and let's move." Callie looked around and asked, "Uh, where is my suit?" Arizona pointed to the bed and replied, "It's over there, Jo and Stevie picked it, they told me it's what they feel most comfortable in when they are out in public at the beach or waterpark." Callie turned to find a pair of black boardshorts that fell just above the knee and a black racer back tee with a sewn in bra made of the same material, both pieces had a two inch deep purple stripe running down both sides.

Callie smiled brightly, slipped it on, looked in the mirror and realized she felt absolutely no angst or anxiety over wearing this in public. She really hadn't thought that much about it other than the first few days after Arizona and Sofia arrived. When other people were over, she wore shorts and a sports bra or something, but she hadn't thought about what she would wear if they were in public. The fact that Arizona did, it just meant so much to her. Arizona walked up behind her, ran her hands down her abdomen and asked, "Do you like it? Does this make you feel comfortable?" Callie turned, wrapped her arms around Arizona's neck and replied, "I love it. I guess I never thought about what I'd wear in public, but this…this is great. Thank you for thinking of it." Arizona leaned up on her toes, kissed her softly, then turned to reach for her clothes and Callie stopped her, "Nope, not without the sunblock." Arizona huffed, "Calliope, I'm nearly as dark as you now, do I seriously need it?" Callie laughed and answered, "You are not and yes you do." Arizona huffed, stomped into the bathroom and muttered, "I hate this greasy crap." Callie squirted some in her hands and retorted, "And you love your sunburned ass so much more." Arizona chuckled and replied, "Shut up." Callie just laughed and continued to slather her wife in the tropical smelling cream.

Pulling into the marina fifteen minutes early, once they walked onto the beach, Callie still couldn't figure out what Arizona was up to. There were little shops and stands all over the place advertising jet skis, boats, surfboards, fishing tours, whale watching, group tours, private tours, water skiing, parasailing, scuba diving, snorkeling and she had absolutely no clue what they were doing there. She knew several of those things were off the table for Arizona because she wasn't completely confident in her swimming skills in the deep waters, and she was almost positive parasailing would absolutely be a definite no. That one saddened her because it was something both of them always talked about doing and while there were so many things Arizona could do and she had come so far, there were a few things she couldn't do, if not from lack of ability, then from fear or lack of confidence. She was so lost in her thoughts; she didn't even realize Arizona was no longer by her side.

When someone brushed up against her, she turned to find Arizona standing next to her with two men. One was clearly Latino and the other, although he was extremely tanned, had long blonde hair and green eyes and even if he had yet to speak, he was most likely American. Before Callie could say anything, Arizona introduced, "Cal, this is Jorge and John and they will be taking us for a little ride today." Both men shook Callie's hand and led them toward a boat. While they were walking, Callie had a chance to take a closer look at both men and realized Jorge had a prosthetic arm, though it was rather old and had more of a claw type grip and was quite different than the newer ones she was used to working with and John had a prosthetic leg which was also rather basic. She looked to Arizona and asked, "Where are we going?" Arizona smiled brightly and responded, "You'll see." Callie furrowed her brow in confusion, but trusted her wife and followed along.

Once they reached the dock, they walked up to a boat that had a long flat surface on the back and several seats toward the front. There was really nothing on the side of the boat, which was named Si Se Puede (Yes it is possible), that gave away what type of boat it was, other than the writing in both English and Spanish saying that it was completely accessible and all equipment could be sized to fit with advanced notice. Stepping onto the boat, Jorge took the driver's seat while John untied the boat from the dock and hollered, "All set." He sat across from Callie and Arizona and the blonde asked, "How long have you been doing this?" John responded, "About ten years now. I was in a really bad place when I came home from Afghanistan, that's where I picked up this souvenir along with an addiction to pain killers." He tapped his leg then continued, "My family did the whole intervention thing, I spent 30 days in rehab, when I was released, I got on a bus and been here ever since. I met Jorge my first week here. He was a big deal surfer in Cabo until he got attacked by a shark. He moved here, did some street vending, that's what he was doing when I met him. He had a whole different attitude about it. He figured there was a reason for it and we needed to figure out our reason. We put our heads together one day and decided to do something we both enjoy and shouldn't give up because we lost a piece of ourselves and we want others to see they shouldn't have to either." Jorge turned completely around and laughed, "I'm a better driver with one hand too." Both women chuckled and John called out, "Yeah well nobody needs to lose anymore body parts so just turn around and watch where you're going."

John got up, opened a hatch then turned to look at both women and stated, "Arizona, when I talked to you on the phone, you told me you were an amputee and gave me the size of your residual limb, I um…" He scratched his head and stared at her legs. Callie raised her eyebrows, completely confused by this entire conversation. She had no idea why Arizona would share that information with this stranger. Arizona looked down at her leg and said, "Oh! Oh, right! She reached down, squeezed the spot on her leg that would release the vacuum seal and pulled it off. John plopped down on the back deck and stared at her then asked, "Can you do that again?" Arizona nodded, put her leg back on, sealed it up and before she took it off, John called out, "Jorge, stop the boat, come check this out." Jorge stopped the boat, stood and looked at both women, Arizona released her leg again and Jorge exclaimed, "Who you fuck to get that?" Both women laughed, then Arizona pointed at Callie and explained, "My wife is the best orthopedic surgeon and prosthetist in the US." Callie blushed and both men looked at her and Jorge asked, "No shit?" Callie nodded, "No shit." Jorge smiled and bartered, "You give me your card and I give you an extra ten minutes." Callie stuck out her lip and declared, "I don't have any cards…" Arizona whipped out two of Callie's cards from her purse and handed one to each man. Callie looked at her and asked, "What are you my business manager?" Arizona shook her head and responded, "Nope, just a proud wife."

Callie kissed her nose, looked at the other three people on the boat then asked, "Will someone please tell me what I just got an extra ten minutes of?" Arizona wrapped her leg in a towel, handed it to John who stored it under his seat, turned to Callie and asked, "What's the one thing we always said we wanted to do together?" Callie looked around and it finally hit her what they were going to do and she replied, "Parasailing…but Arizona…" Arizona shook her head and responded, "This isn't in a plane, this isn't miles in the air, if we fall, we land in water, and yes its shark infested waters but we aren't going to think about that. Callie, this is something we've always said we were going to do and there was so much we didn't get to do. We're here, there's a way for me to do it safely, and I want this." Callie could see in the blue eyes that matched the color of the ocean just how much her wife did want this, how much she wanted to get past her fears and feel free again, how much she wanted this for them, to do one more of those things they never got to do the first time around. Callie stood up, pulled her wife with her and declared, "Let's do this thing!"

Jorge started the boat again, John took out a harness and tossed it at Callie, then a special harness for Arizona, then pulled out a very large, very colorful piece of fabric, and finally pushed a button and the two watched a panel slide back and a large wheel with an extremely thick cable slowly rose out of the bottom of the boat. Callie put on the harness while John helped Arizona with hers. While Callie's was the typical harness with two straps that she pulled up to the juncture of her thighs, Arizona had one regular strap for her right leg and a type of sleeve for her left leg to secure it more firmly. Once they had their harnesses on and went through some safety instructions, both John and Callie helped Arizona to the back deck of the boat and Callie stood on her left side. John hooked them to the cable and explained, "I'm going to let the chute up first, when it's all the way up, you're going to feel it tug on you, I'll start to let you up slowly just like you're a human kite. Arizona, you told me what happened, so when you feel you're high enough, you give me the thumbs up and I'll stop letting out the line. Okay?" Both women nodded, took each other's hand, then waited to feel the tug. John added, "There's cameras on both of your helmets and we will download the footage onto a thumb drive for you. Have fun, it's go time."

Just as he said that they both felt the tug and watched as their feet gradually lifted further and further from the boat. Both women held onto their harness with one hand while they had a firm grasp on each other's hand with the other. Arizona didn't know how far up they were or how much further they had to go, but she looked around her and could barely make out the boats below her, saw the large shadows that seemed to be just under the surface of the water and let go of her harness and exclaimed, "Callie look, is that a whale?" Callie looked down and could see two more join it then they jumped out of the water, she tugged on Arizona's hand and squealed, "Honey, they're dolphins." Arizona watched in awe as they continued to jump in and out of the water for a couple more minutes then looked up in the sky and couldn't remember a time she ever felt so carefree. She kicked her leg out, held her arms out while still holding Callie's hand and let out a loud whoop. Callie looked over and could see the expression of pure joy and felt the same freedom as her wife and joined her as they both screamed into the wind and laughed as they both flew through the air, neither of them having a care in the world.

All too soon, they felt themselves being pulled in and could see John signaling to them what to do with their feet as they landed. Once they got their harnesses off, Callie pulled Arizona into a tight bear hug, spun her around and whispered, "I'm so proud of you." Arizona leaned back, gave her a smacking kiss on the lips and asked, "Is it bad to say I'm proud of me too?" Callie shook her head and answered, "No, you should be proud." John handed Arizona her leg and stated, "You know, with that leg you probably would have been okay going up with it on. We've never seen that style; we usually get the belt or the Velcro type and it's just safer and people feel more secure with our equipment. We actually started this business because the first time I went up, I lost my leg." Jorge started laughing and John threw something at his head then John whispered, "It was kind of funny, but it was expensive as hell to replace." Neither woman knew how to respond so they just nodded their heads.

When they reached the dock, Callie gave both men a tip and told them, "What you're doing, this is amazing. Thank you. If you make it to New York, look me up. If you don't, have your doctor send me your scans and your measurements and I'll see what I can do for you." Both men shook her hand again, and Callie asked them the best way to get to Stone Island from where they were. Jorge explained, "You could drive, it's about 45 minutes but the road is pretty bad and closed most of the time so you'd have to get pulled by a tractor. But you could drive right up the road to the Playa Sur Embarcadero and take a lancha…ahhh…a ferry and it would only take about 5 or 10 minutes then it's just a couple of blocks from there." Callie thanked him again and they made their way to the car.

Deciding neither of them wanted to spend more time in the car, they chose to take the lancha and found themselves on Stone Island within twenty minutes. When they got off the boat, both women looked at each other, wondering if they were in the right place. They found themselves on a dirt path that hardly counted as a road but followed the majority of the crowd that was going to their left. They saw a few houses but no sign of the ocean, though if they listened hard enough they could hear it off in the distance. Still following the crowd, they turned right and found themselves at the top of the hill looking down at the sapphire blue water and the white sand. As they got closer, they saw all along the beachfront were chairs, vendors, straw huts, restaurants, and places to rent ATV's, boats, kayaks, banana boat rides, they saw people riding horses along the beach, people playing volleyball, and the smells were intoxicating. Arizona took Callie's arm and whispered, "It's like a secret little paradise." Callie looked around in awe, nodded her head and responded, "It is, it really is. What do you want to do first?"

Arizona could see that Callie wanted to see more, she could also see her eyeing the ATV's, so she suggested, "Let's rent an ATV, take a tour of the island and see everything first then we can decide." Callie turned to her with a huge grin on her face and asked, "Yeah?" Arizona nodded her head in response. She found it funny that many people considered her childlike because she was a pediatric surgeon, but Callie was one of the biggest kids she knew. On their way to the ATV rental, they both stopped at one of the small huts and got a cold drink to cool them down a little. Walking hand in hand, Callie asked, "What made you decide on parasailing?" Arizona swung their arms between them and explained, "I was online looking for special things we could do for today and ran across this site advertising all types of activities. When I saw the parasailing one, it made me a little sad because it was something we both always said we wanted to do together and something we promised we would do when we went on our honeymoon. While I was looking through the pictures of this particular site, I noticed that many of the riders had special harnesses and saw that they were amputees or had different disabilities. Then I saw the picture of John and Jorge. I called and talked to John about it and he made me feel at ease. I told him about the plane crash and he promised me if we got out there and I changed my mind, he'd give me my deposit back. But when I got out there, it was just so…exhilarating, freeing, I wanted to do it." Callie leaned over, kissed her temple and stated, "You're amazing, I'm so proud of you." Arizona just smiled, sipped her drink, then pointed to the stand up ahead of them for the ATV rental.

When they got to the counter, Callie asked, "Do we want one or two?" Arizona smirked and replied, "Are you kidding? I want to be smashed up against you holding on tight." Callie groaned, knowing that was going to be torture, rented one machine, listened to the directions, then they both got on and Callie drove straight toward the edge of the water and went slowly until they were away from the crowds of people where she could pick up speed. Both women laughed as the water splashed up at them and found it refreshing under the hot sun. Callie veered off onto a path which took them further out onto the peninsula and they stopped when they saw a large rock jutting out of the water. It took them a moment to figure out what it was until they saw something on the rock move and realized there were dozens and dozens of seals sunbathing and playing in the water. Arizona pointed and directed, "Calliope, look at that." Callie followed her finger and watched as two seals fought for their spot at the top of the rock and the others barked and chattered almost like they were a group of kids playing king of the hill. When the smaller one finally made the larger one back down, several of the seals jumped into the water and began to swim and play while the victor took his rightful place at the top of the rock. Callie laughed and exclaimed, "They're just like kids."

Arizona nodded then pointed at a large group of trees ahead of them and asked what's that up there? Callie knew but responded, "Let's go look." She started the four wheeler again and took off toward the huge clump of tall trees. When they got closer, they saw men up in the trees picking some of the fruit, others down below catching it, and someone at a small table with a very large knife hacking away at it. Arizona looked at the large odd-shaped green globe with the hard shell and whispered, "What is that?" Callie smiled and responded, "Coconuts." Arizona furrowed her brow and argued, "Coconuts are brown." Callie laughed and explained, "They are by the time you see them." She indicated to the vendor she wanted one and waited while he cut one up. The two women watched as he meticulously hacked away at the fruit. Callie explained, "These are the same type of coconut, but they aren't ripe yet, you cut these and use them for coconut water, the meat is still extremely soft and the liquid is clear. Those yellow ones over there, when they cut into them, the husk has a hairier texture but its white, the meat is a little harder, and the liquid is creamy, that's the perfect time to gather the milk. Those over there, they are the ones you are used to. When you break into them the husk is brown and hairy, there is little liquid and the meat is thicker, those are used more for the meat than the juices." She took the green coconut which now had a straw sticking out of it and offered it to Arizona saying, "I know you don't like coconut, but this has a sweet refreshing taste, not at all what you are used to, just try a little." Arizona took a little taste and smiled, "That's not too bad. That's really cool. Who knew I'd get a whole lesson?" Callie bumped her hip and the two walked through the grove for a while and watched as the men worked.

After the coconut groves, they rode back toward the beach, returned the ATV, found a nice little place under an umbrella which served mounds of food that neither of them could finish and Callie noticed once again that Arizona was tolerating spices that even had her chugging down water by the glassful. After lunch they decided to take a boat tour and were excited to get a closer look at the seals and were surprised when they came right up to the boat and allowed them to pet them. Once they returned, they took a horse cart ride along the other side of the island they hadn't yet explored and got to see more of the houses and people who lived in the area and hear some of the history about the island which was actually a peninsula rather than an island. When they returned, they walked around the shops, Arizona purchased some cute dresses for about 10 dollars, Callie found a couple of shirts and some shorts she liked, of course they got more things for Sofia and a little scarf for Tobin. As a joke, they bought a pair of slippers for the colonel with coconuts and tropical birds all over them. Once they were finished shopping, they decided to head back to Mazatlán and find a nice place for their anniversary/birthday dinner.

Once they returned to their car, they both decided it was rather early for dinner and along with their large lunch, they had both snacked on street food from the vendor carts and weren't quite hungry yet. Aside from that, they both felt hot and sticky and wanted to dress up for the special occasion and really have a romantic evening so they headed back to their vacation home to clean up. After showering together and Callie putting more Aloe and Arizona's behind which was now in the itchy phase, Arizona decided to wear one of her new dresses and she pulled out a black linen rayon pant and shirt set for Callie along with a new pair of black sandals. Callie smiled and asked, "Is this my birthday suit?" Arizona walked up to her, yanked the towel away and declared, "This is your birthday suit baby and I can guarantee you we will be getting a great deal of use out of it later." Callie arched her sexy brow and suggested, "We could skip dinner and go straight for dessert." Arizona wrapped her arms around Callie's waist, pulled her closer, tugged on her bottom lip with her teeth and replied, "Good things come to those who wait Calliope." She smacked her on her bare ass then demanded, "Now get dressed, we have plans." Callie skulked to the bed, put on the clothes Arizona laid out for her and decided her wife had excellent taste. This outfit was not only comfortable, but it was kind of sexy.

Driving a little further down the Malecon, they found a rather upscale restaurant and were able to get a table with no problem. Seeing they had a patio, Callie asked if they could sit outside so they could see the ocean. Though it was warm outside, the breeze coming off the ocean cooled it down and both women found it rather comfortable. After they gave their order, and the waitress came back with their drinks and appetizers, Callie asked, "So what's on the agenda for tomorrow?" Arizona swallowed her bite and responded, "The rest of the week is free in case there was anything you wanted to do or if we just wanted to stick around and relax." Callie sighed in relief and replied, "I think tomorrow I'd like to just stay at the house, swim a little, just spend some time with you. Maybe Friday we can come back into town or find another place to venture off to." Arizona smiled and replied, "That sounds good to me. I could do with just spending a day with you doing nothing." Callie linked their fingers, wiggled her brows and corrected, "I didn't say doing nothing." Arizona laughed and replied, "I swear you are insatiable." Callie asked, "Don't women hit their sexual prime at 40?" Arizona shook her head and replied, "I have no idea, but if that's true, I'll be hitting mine and my second trimester at the same time, so you might want to work out a little more." Callie laughed and replied, "Oh lord."

Once their meal was finished, both women were excited to see that fried ice cream was on the menu and this time they ordered their own. While they were eating, Arizona asked nonchalantly, "Are you ready for your birthday present?" Callie scrunched up her nose in confusion and asked, "Wasn't this whole day, this whole trip my present?" Arizona replied, "Well, yes and no. I wanted to get you something you could have, something you could keep forever. At first it was a struggle, but one day, I looked down at our hands and it occurred to me that something was missing. I know I'm a month late, or eight years late depending on how you look at it but…" She reached into her purse, pulled out a small black box and took out a thick white gold band that was similar to their wedding rings with tiny rubies and black diamonds in a checkerboard pattern along both sides and a black diamond in the center. She held Callie's left hand and explained, "You deserve an engagement ring as well and I want you to have one. I tried to match mine as closely as I could along with your wedding band." Callie looked down at the ring through tear-filled eyes, this was the very last thing she expected, but it was gorgeous and she loved the thought Arizona put into it. She slid off her wedding ring, waited for Arizona to slip on the engagement ring, then put her wedding ring back on. Looking up she declared, "Honey it's gorgeous, breathtaking, and I can't believe you thought of this. It means so much to me." She leaned over the table, brushed their lips together in what started out as a sweet chaste kiss but couldn't hold back the emotion she was feeling and deepened the kiss making it more than inappropriate for public.

After finishing their meal for which Arizona paid this time, the two walked back toward the car hand in hand. Arizona asked, "Is there anything else you want to do?" Callie was staring at the rings on her finger and answered, "Honestly, I want to go back and show my wife how much I enjoyed my birthday, appreciate my present, and celebrate our one month anniversary." Arizona stopped, pulled her into her arms, and replied, "I think that sounds like an amazing idea. I love you Calliope Robbins-Torres." Callie brushed their lips together and answered, "I love you Arizona Robbins-Torres." Callie opened the door for Arizona, waited for her to get in, then ran to the other side of the car. Once she got in the car, she kissed Arizona again and whispered, "Thank you for making this the best day ever."

A/N: Thank you as always for your amazing ideas and reviews. While I wanted Callie to be the one to propose, I also wanted her to get her engagement ring as well. I have no idea why. I guess in my mind it's only fair since she never got one. We're coming toward the end of the honeymoon and there will be a little time jump just FYI.
