Thank you as per for all your comments. You can all stop telling me how much you hate Lauren now, I know! Keep up with your comments letting me know the direction you would like for me to be taking. You want Callie to have the opportunity to be jealous, I like that idea but I feel more jealousy in their relationship right now would be quite unhealthy. Appreciate every single one of you, thank you always and stay safe please :)


"Oh so I distract you, huh?"

"No Lauren, you irritate me. I just told you I'm in a relationship, and considering you don't know me at all this is unacceptable-"

"Do you know how many Arizona Robbins there are on the internet?" The elevator dung and Lauren made a move to step out, lifting a single finger as she did. She looked at Arizona as she passed, a smirk on her lips before she walked away.

Arizona turned, her anger now rising. How inappropriate does this woman need to be. I have shown her no interest, have told her that I am in a relationship and still she finds it necessary to flirt with me.

Arizona stepped out of the elevator moments later, leaving the hospital and making her way over to Callie's apartment. She needed to tell her what had happened, she felt uncomfortable at the idea of her not knowing so she decided she would have a nice shower, open a bottle of wine and wait for Calliope to get home so she could tell her all about the annoying doctor and then have lots of sex with her beautiful, brown eyed girlfriend.


As Callie finished her longer than anticipated surgery she quickly walked to the attendings lounge to grab her things and head home to Arizona. She loved that she spent most nights at her place, it made sense since her apartment was opposite the hospital and it was nice to wind down together at the end of the night.

C: Heading home now, see you in 5 xx

A: Can't wait xxx

Callie smiled at the response. It was nice they were both so comfortable being honest about their feelings, Callie thought about the blonde all day and she loved that her feelings were reciprocated. She ran out of the hospital and across the road to her apartment building, sprinting up the stairs and knocking on the door. Within seconds the door opened to reveal the beautiful blonde, her hair damp and a silk robe wrapped around her petite body. Callie pulled her in for a kiss, a quick peck on the lips which Arizona quickly deepened, running her tongue along Callie's bottom lip. They held each other tight as they kissed, niether woman wanting to be apart from the other. Arizona pulled away slightly to nuzzle her nose against Calle's before fully pulling away to grab a previously poured glass of wine for the brunette.

''How was your day beautiful?'' Arizona asked as she watched Callie take a long sip of her wine. They moved over to sit together on the couch, Callie upright and Arizona leaning against the side, her legs on Callie's lap.

''It was long. I missed you. That last surgery has left me absolutely shattered, it was supposed to be a 4 hour hip surgery but the damage was much worse than the scans initially showed us.''

Callie set down her glass on the coffee table and grabbed one of the blondes feet, gently massaging.

''Mmm, that feels nice. I don't deserve you Calliope,'' Arizona purred. She felt anxious at the thought of talking to Callie about Lauren, but she wanted to get it out of the way so that she could enjoy this night with her love.

''Callie, I need to talk to you about something,'' Callie looked over at her immediately, her expression slightly worried and concern evident in her eyes. ''I am on a case with Dr Avery and he flew over a craniofacial specialist to work on the case with us. I met her for the first time today, Dr Boswell, and our interactions have left me incredibly frustrated. She was acting flirty around me, and then when she started to be direct I shut her down immediately and let her know that I have a girlfriend and I have no interest in her at all. She seems incredibly arrogant and I told her so, and I just wanted to let you know because if it was happening to you I would want to,'' Arizona spoke nervously.

Callie grabbed Arizona's hand and lifted it up to her lips and placed a small kiss just below her knuckles.

''I really appreciate you telling me. I imagine most people wouldn't and I respect that you did. Mark actually mentioned something to me this morning about you and some other woman flirting, I thought he was being a creep but it turns out he was right!''

Arizona opened her mouth to defend herself but Callie continued.

''I trust you 100%. I appreciate you keeping me in the loop. I believe that you weren't flirting with her and I think it's sexy as hell that you told her how inappropriate she was being,'' Callie finished with a small.

Arizona was taken aback. Her previous relationships had always been filled with jealousy and anger, this turn of events was brand new to her. Callie started to chuckle at Arizona's stunned silence, she pulled her swiftly onto her lap and wrapped her arms around her tight.

''Arizona you're giving me honesty and communication, that's all I can ask you for. You clearly have my back and I have yours,'' Callie whispered into her ear, the smell of vanilla in her hair intoxicating.

Arizona smiled, turning her head to find awaiting lips.


A couple of glasses of wine and empty plates of food later, the two women lay on the sofa together. Arizona I top of Callie, her head resting against her chest, the sound of her heartbeat beginning to send her off into a sleep.

"Arizona," Callie's tone was gentle, almost a whisper.

"Mhmm," Arizona mumbled in response.

"When did you know that you liked girls?"

The conversation of sexuality hadn't yet come up in their relationship. It hadn't felt necessary since they were both attracted to eachother and nothing else really mattered, but Callie had been nervous about dating someone who had a lot more experience than her. Arizona's fingers circled the skin peeking above Calliopes pants, it was impossible for Arizona not to be touching her skin in some way when they were together, she was addicted to it, to her.

"I guess I never didn't not like girls. I never had boyfriends, ever. I had a poster on my wall of Cindy Crawford and I wasn't just looking at her mole," Arizona breathed out a giggle.

"What about your parents? How did they take it?" Callie asked.

"Lets just say it wasn't news to my mom when I brought home someone named Joanne." Callie let out a deep chuckle.

"So, my answer to your question is I've always known. What about you? I know we've touched on the subject before but what was your experience?"

"Hmm, well, up until about 3 years ago I had only ever let myself be attracted to men. I suppose I always had a lingering feeling when I look back on it, but I only dated men before. I found myself having feelings for a woman that I couldn't ignore and since that moment I have been exploring my sexuality. I never felt comfortable being called 'straight', I'm not sure why it took me so long to realise.. honestly, getting into a relationship with you terrified me because our experience levels are on two ends of spectrum."

Arizona lifted herself up into a seated position so she could face the brunette. Callie lifted her body slightly.

"Everyone's experiences with sexuality are different, none are right or wrong and I think that's what makes this community so special, we all have the ability to help in our ways based off of our own personal experience. I had no idea you even considered my past to be intimidating, you've never give me that impression, in fact I've always been someone who refuses to get involved with newborns but I never even felt like I had to give it a second thought with you. We comfortably fell into a relationship, a questioning of your sexuality never even crossed my mind."

They sat in a comfortable silence for a moment, Arizona's fingers toyed with Callie's

"I have never been with someone and it felt this right before. I feel like I can talk to you about anything, our sexual and emotional attraction feel on par in a way I've never experienced," Callie's words were strong but Arizona couldn't help but notice her nervousness.

"I feel exactly the same way Calliope. You are everything I have ever desired, you're more than I ever felt I deserved."

"You promise I'm enough for you?"

"Callie don't doubt that for a second. I don't mean to be crude during an emotional conversation, but you fuck me better than any lesbian ever has so don't for a second doubt your sexual abilities."

Callie howled with laughter.

"Mmm, that's it now, all I can think about is fucking you senseless. Get into that bedroom right now Arizona Robbins," Callie said as she lifted the blonde up off the couch.

Arizona leaned into the taller woman, "Maybe you can teach me a thing or two," she said with a wink before sprinting into the bedroom as her robe fell to the floor.
