Love seeing all the new readers. Thank you as always lovelies. Bit of a shorter one, just wanted this chapter to be about their day together.
Previously on Giving into Temptation:
"Fuck," Callie breathes out.
Arizona gently slides her fingers out, Callie breathing heavily. She runs her tongue through her, cleaning her up, not wasting a drop of her.
"Fuckkkk," she breathes out again as Arizona moves up her body, pressing her lips against hers, sliding her tongue between them so she can share the taste of her.
They hold each other, making out, their bodies moving together.
"I'm going to need you to do that again," Callie whispered, Arizona laughing against her lips.
"You don't need to ask me twice!" Arizona said before dipping back between the brunette's legs.
Arizona squinted as she woke up to bright sunlight, her body completely relaxed after her long night with Callie. Last night, she finally got to show Callie just how much she cared for her, working over her body 7, 8 maybe even 9 times until they fell asleep exhausted in each other's arms. Arizona was completely addicted to her, and having her in her bed right now had her feeling happier than ever. As she lay in her bed, her arms wrapped around the woman of her dreams, she thought back to the last few months and all the joy that had come from them. She had reached a point where she didn't know how to wake up without Callie now, and if she had to, she would crave her scent and taste all day.
She nuzzled her nose into her girlfriend's neck and took a deep breath of Callie-goodness. This woman had her feeling things she didn't even think possible, and they were barely even started with their journey together, it made her very excited for their future. She ran her hand down Callie's side, enjoying the feeling of her soft skin beneath her fingertips, her fingers slid across her stomach, leaving goosebumps under her touch. Callie started to stir, humming gently as she enjoyed the trace of Arizona's fingers.
"Well good morning beautiful," Arizona whispered into her ear, her fingers teasing along her pelvis.
Callie purred under her touch, pushing her face into her pillow as Arizona's lips latch onto her neck, kissing their way down along her shoulder. Her hand travels up her waist, around Callie's hips until she gets a handful of her firm yet soft ass, squeezing and massaging her cheeks. Callie started to giggle, moving her ass away from Arizona's hand playfully which earns her a gentle bite on the neck and tickles her waist. They tickled and teased each other in bed, laughing and kissing; it wasn't often that they both got a day off, so they didn't waste a moment of the morning together.
"How would you feel about a vacation?" Callie asked as they sat opposite eating breakfast. Together, they had whipped up some deliciously soft american pancakes along with some chocolate strawberries and freshly whipped vanilla cream; over the months they had learnt that cooking together was one of their favourite activities. Arizona popped a strawberry into her mouth, Callie's eyes watching her, waiting for her response.
"How would I feel about the opportunity to have Calliope in a bikini every day?' Arizona replied, lifting a strawberry to Callie's lips, licking her own as she watched her take a bite. "I would feel very good about it."
"Mmmm, me too. I was thinking Mexico."
Arizona's eyes brightened at the thought of them sipping Piña Coladas on the beach, laying out in the heat reading a good book, the sun hitting her girlfriend's golden skin just right. "Mhm, yes please." They smiled at each other, both reaching out for the other's hand as they shared a moment across the table, getting lost in each other's eyes. "How did I get so lucky?"
Callie's eyes brightened at the blonde's words, it had been a long time since anyone had made her so happy. "I guess we were both due some good luck." She leaned across the table, Arizona meeting her halfway, their lips pressing together gently, softly moving across each other, Arizona tasting of sweet strawberries and syrup.
As they pulled away, Arizona lifted Callie's hand to her lips, placing a few kisses before pushing herself out from under the table and grabbing their empty plates. "What did you want to do today?"
Callie followed suit, taking their glasses into the kitchen. "There's a farmer's market today in town, one of the stalls there serves the most excellent coffee."
"Oooh that sounds like a lot of fun," Arizona nodded excitedly, wrapping her arms around Callie's neck and pulling her in for a kiss before she loaded the dishwasher.
Callie often compared food to music, when you hear music that resonates with you, that moves you - no matter the genre - it's undeniable, visceral, and you know it instantly. When you taste something good, it hits you immediately, it doesn't matter what culture or ethnicity the food is from, the goodness rings true in your core. When she was a girl, visit's to the market were open-aired, her mother beckoning her to examine the freshly picked produce, the variety of fresh foods on display to be touched and turned over amidst the colours and chaos - it made the simple act of picking out your food an exciting and joyful journey.
As they walked hand-in-hand through the busy market, Callie spotted some overflowing buckets of colourful arugula flowers, which she always loved using for their nutty taste and gentle, spicy undertones. She snatched up a couple of bunches, Arizona opening up the tote bag for her to put them in before they continued on their treasure hunt.
"Do you mind us cooking at yours tonight?" Callie asked as she stumbled across a selection of Italian greens.
"Not at all, as long as you don't mind doing most of the work," she replied, dropping the vegetables Callie passed her into the bag.
Inspiration struck Callie, the varieties of vegetables assisting her in thinking up her culinary creation for the evening; classic Italian risotto with a simple Thai twist.
As they passed by the root vegetable stall, Arizona noticed some unusually small carrots, beckoning Callie over to see. The woman behind the stall offered them one to taste.
"Mmm, so sweet!" Callie exclaimed excitedly, watching Arizona's eyes widen as she took a bite, nodding in agreement.
Next up Callie grabbed some tender fennel bulbs, another ingredient that screams Italy.
"The way you can just think up recipes like this is incredible," Arizona said as she watched Callie smelling the fresh herbs.
"I would say cooking is my love language," she replied, lifting the fresh Thai basil up to her nose, closing her eyes at the delicious smell.
"Very sexy." Arizona loved seeing this side of Callie. At work, she was tough and strong, but she was also wonderful with patients, she had the ability to put anyone at ease. She was charming but more than anything she was full of empathy. The more she spent time with Callie alone, the more her love grew. Callie found joy in most things, taking a mere ingredient and turning it into something magical. She made Arizona feel safe and loved in a way she hadn't experienced before. "I love you."
The Latina beamed, grabbing her girlfriend's hand and pulling her close, placing a soft kiss on her cheek. "I love you more."
"Do you want me to chop these?" Arizona pointed to the array of fresh vegetables laid out on the counter
"Oh that would be very helpful," Callie rested against Arizona's back, wrapping her hands around her waist as she watched her chopping and slicing. "Wine?" She asked, moving to get a cold bottle from the fridge, pouring them both a glass before passing one to her girlfriend.
"Thank you beautiful."
Callie beamed, it had been a wonderful day and she was excited for the evening ahead. The sound of Arizona's phone going off broke them from their spell. Callie took a sip of her wine, watching as her girlfriend read her message.
"Babe," Arizona said, looking up at Callie with a big smile on her face. "Babe she's gone!" Callie tilted her head, not understanding. "Lauren's gone!" She started to tap away at her phone, sending a reply.
"Why? What happened," Callie replied, confused.
"Someone put in a complaint about her so she left, she was supposed to be sticking around for the next few days to keep an eye on the patient after the op but she's gone early." Arizona eyed Callie up. "Did you put in a complaint about her?"
Callie burst into laughter. "Absolutely not! I am not that petty."
Arizona approached her from across the kitchen, taking her glass and placing it on the side, forcing her back against the counter as she wrapped her hands around Callie's neck. "Are you sure?" She narrowed her eyes. "Because I wouldn't blame you if you did, I was thinking about doing it myself," Arizona teased, pressing her lips gently against the Latina's.
"I promise, I didn't put in a complaint about Lauren," she replied, nipping at her girlfriend's lip. "But if I said I wasn't thrilled, I would be lying."
They stood with their bodies pressed together, Arizona's hands finding Callie's ass as their kiss deepens.
"Today has been so wonderful," Arizona whispered into her lips. Callie hummed in response. "The more time I spend with you, the more I fall in love with you."
Callie hugged her close, their kiss passionate, slow. "I love you so much," Callie whispered as they pulled apart, placing one final kiss on her lips before going back to the food.
Arizona continued to chop, and Callie started to work on the other components. They turned on some music and started to dance and laugh as they cooked, stopping occasionally for a quick kiss or butt slap. The two women felt at ease with each other, they had already been through so much together and their relationship continued to grow.
Callie felt relieved that Lauren wouldn't be an issue anymore, although she and Arizona had managed to sort it between themselves, that woman's face was not one she had been enjoying seeing around the hospital.
After an evening full of cooking, dancing and chatting the two women settled down on the sofa, their bellies full and hearts happy.
"Thank you so much that was amazing," Arizona said as she lifted her feet onto Callie's lap.
"I couldn't have done it without you beautiful," she replied, taking one of Arizona's feet in her hands to massage as she picked out a rom-com for them to watch.
"How do we feel about a Julia Roberts classic?" The blonde asked.
"I feel really good about it."
Scrolling through a few options, Arizona decided on Notting Hill and snuggled up close to Callie when the movie started. They sat together, close and comfortable, enjoying the feeling of each other's bodies, Callie loved having Arizona close enough that the scent of her perfume would occasionally waft over to her. As the movie played, they both felt themselves falling asleep, Callie's arms wrapped tightly around Arizona's body, her head on Callie's chest, falling asleep to the sound of her gentle heart beat.
