Chapter 25
Arizona sighed looking around the dressing room. This was it, the last show. She had worked so hard to get here, she was feeling a little depressed. "penny for your thoughts" she heard behind her, turning around she saw Adam standing in the door way. Smiling "I was just thinking about how hard the last few months have been and it all comes down to tonight"
"you did a great job, I'll be surprised if they don't ask you back for next season" he smiled stepping into the room
"if they did I'd have to decline" she said sadly "the sale of The Coffee House is final and when I get home we'll be taking it over"
"when do you leave?"
"Saturday, we have some things we want to do before we drive back"
"you're driving back?" they heard Miley's voice
"yeah, Callie came back with us, and is going to help pack the house, we decided it'd be cool to rent a car and drive home, that and I don't know how, but I managed to accumulate a lot of shit while I was out here" Arizona shrugged
"that happens" Adam laughed
"woot, woot, who's gonna win this" Blake called out as he made his way into the room
"go away" Adam said rolling his eyes
"Arizona's going to win" Miley smiled winking at Arizona. She smiled back at her and for the first time realized she was going to miss her.

The crowd was going wild, they heard Carson talking to the camera, it was their cue to head out. "and here come the judges" Carson said. Arizona stopped and gave him a hug before she headed to her chair. Sitting down she took a deep breath. "hey, relax" Miley smiled reaching for her hand, "we've already made it this far" Arizona looked at her, and smiled. They had a lot of performances to get through tonight, with the fact that it was the last show, there were people from last season, and other performers, including the judges. They hadn't practice at all since Arizona's party, but they felt they could wing it. Getting up on stage, felt a little foreign to Arizona, especially with the other three, but it turned out to be a good time. She missed playing in front of a large group, The Coffee House crowd had nothing on this. They finished the song and sat down, going to commercial. Arizona sighed, Addison was up next. Hoping against all odds she'd hit the right notes on the song, they went over it so many times she thought Teddy and Callie were going to flip out if they had to hear it again. Addison did great she hit all the right notes, Arizona was so proud of her, but in the end, she ended up not winning. Leah Murphy, from Blake's team won. Which didn't surprise Arizona at the least, she was good. Meeting up with the rest of the gang after the show. "you did amazing" Arizona smiled taking Addison into a hug.
"not good enough to win" she said sadly
"hey you made it this far, I'm proud of you" Arizona whispered
"thanks"
"now come on there's a party we need to get too" Arizona smiled nodding towards the door.

"how the hell did I get so much shit?" Arizona said looking around the house, it was the next day, they were working on packing.
"I don't know" Callie laughed "and what the hell is this?" she asked picking something up
"I'm not sure, but Miley gave it to me" Arizona laughed taking the weird looking object from Callie. Looking at it before tossing it in a box.
"you sure we're going to get all this into a van?"
"if not then I'll get rid of it" Arizona smiled, looking at Callie
"what?"
"thank you"
"for what?"
"coming out and helping me with this mess"
"you don't have to thank me" Callie said moving closer wrapping her arms around Arizona "I'm your wife"
"I know but this is my mess"
"no, it's our mess" Callie smiled leaning in kissing her "besides you came out here and did this for me, so I can have my dream"
"you're dream?" Arizona laughed "owning a coffee shop is your dream?"
"well no, but you know what I mean"
"I do" Arizona smiled leaning in for a kiss, that quickly deepened and had them on the bed.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"why does that always happen?" Callie asked kissing Arizona's naked chest
"because you attacked me again" Arizona laughed
"I attacked you huh"
"yup" Arizona said letting her lips pop out the P
"ok" Callie didn't have the energy to argue, she let a smile appear across her face and snuggled in closer. Both drifting off into a peaceful slumber. Being woken up by a pounding on the door a few hours later
"what" Arizona yelled
"are we doing dinner?" Teddy asked from the other side of the door
"what time is it?" Callie asked still in her confused sleep state. Arizona moved to look at the clock "it's 5" they both laughed
"hello, dinner" Teddy said again
"we'll be out in a minute" Arizona called to her sister, Callie rolled over on top of Arizona kissing her. "baby we need to get up"
"I know" Callie smiled "I'm hungry, I just wanted to make sure you were real?"
"how am I not real?" Arizona laughed
"I don't know" Callie placed one more kiss on Arizona's lips and hopped off. Leaving Arizona shaking her head.
xxxxxxxxxxxx
"is there anything you guys want to do before we leave?" Arizona asked shoveling a forkful of food into her mouth, she didn't realize how hungry she was.
"I'd honestly like to go back to Disney Land" Callie smiled, knowing Arizona wasn't too keen on the idea
"that sounds like an awesome idea, I'm in" Addy smiled wiping her face with her napkin.
"what do you think?" Arizona looked at her sister
"I'm always game for Disney Land" Teddy smiled
Arizona sighed "alright we'll go tomorrow"
"I was thinking the day after" Callie said, "I'd like to get shit done here"
"that works for me" Arizona smiled
"maybe you should see if Miley wants to go" Addy suggested, prompting everyone to laugh, remembering how Miley said before she's had enough Disney to last her a lifetime "what?"
"I'll see what she says" Arizona stood up, grabbing hers and Callie's plates.

Later that night, Arizona was sitting on the deck, enjoying the breeze coming off the water and a beer. Hearing someone come out she didn't bother to look and see who it was, knowing it wasn't Callie when the person sat down in the chair across from her instead of on her lap. "sure is a nice night" Addy said quietly
"yes, it is" Arizona smiled
"sorry I didn't mean to interrupt your quiet time"
"I'm going to miss this" Arizona smiled taking a drink from her beer.
"me too" Addy smiled "hey I was wondering if maybe we could make a stop in Vegas on the way home"
"I think we can manage that" Arizona smiled "we haven't been there since we got married"
"oh right, you got married there"
"sure did"
"we've never discussed all that" Addy smiled realizing how little she knew about Arizona, she knew all the right stuff, but she didn't really know her.
"what is it you want to know?" Arizona looked at her with a smile
"oh I don't know, how did you and Callie meet?"
"we haven't told you that?" Arizona laughed, she saw Addy shake her head no "well" she took a deep breath and smiled "Teddy and I were out shopping, we decided to stop and get some coffee. I was waiting to place my order, Teddy had gotten hers already and sat down"
"sounds like Teddy" Addy laughed
"I ordered, not paying too much attention, but when she went to hand me back my change our fingers brushed, feeling the electricity from the touch, I looked up into the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen"
xxxxxxxxxxxx
"what are you doing" Teddy asked seeing Callie standing at the patio door
"shh" she said, "Arizona is telling Addy how we met"
"awe how sweet" Teddy said in a sarcastic tone
"I love hearing her tell the story"
"you two are pathetic" Teddy rolled her eyes as she stepped by Callie making her way to the deck. She sat down quietly listening to her sister talk.
"we talked for 2 hours, when I gave her a hug before we left, I felt I didn't want to let her go" she paused looking at her sister "about an hour after we parted she called me, I was so nervous when I answered the phone"
"but yet you didn't sleep with her that night" Teddy laughed
"excuse me for not wanting to jump in bed with the first person I see"
"um" Addy said moving uncomfortably
"some things from my past are better left there" Teddy said looking at Arizona
"anyway, you two were a part for a while" Addy asked
"yeah" Arizona said looking up when she heard Callie open the door
"when Arizona got her record deal, and went out on her first tour I freaked out" Callie said "I was so proud of her, but I didn't think our relationship could handle the distance" Arizona reached out pulling her down onto her lap "it was two years later, I found myself still thinking about Arizona every day, I realized I had to see her again, so I bought a ticket for her concert, with a backstage pass, so I could make sure I got to talk to her. I was so nervous walking through the door" Arizona sat patiently hearing Callie's side of the story "the feeling I got when I walked into that room, seeing her sitting there with April" Callie sighed "I knew what I came there to do was the right thing"
"she asked her to marry her" Teddy smiled "and from there here we are"
"thanks sissy" Arizona smiled "yeah that's pretty much what happened"
"wow, our story sucks" Addy looked at Teddy
"no, it doesn't" Callie said
"ok" Addy laughed "let's see, we met, you were married, I stole you away from your wife, now she's gone, and we're together. How does that not suck"
"first off April and I were having problems, I should have never married her in the first place" Teddy went on "I can't help I fell in love with you"
"woah, what?" Addy said pulling back
"um" Teddy said clearing her throat
"I think we should go inside" Callie whispered standing up off Arizona's lap, Arizona quickly stood following her inside.
"you love me?" they heard once inside
"did you know about this?" Callie asked looking at Arizona
"nope, news to me" Arizona smiled
"what do you think is going to happen now? She seemed a little freaked out"
"I don't know, let's let them figure that out" Arizona nodded towards the door, where they saw the couple kissing "my guess is she feels the same"
"yeah" Callie smiled
"oh hey, Addy asked about stopping in Vegas on the way back, you up for it?"
"yes" Callie smiled she didn't even have to think about it
"come on wife, let's go to bed" Arizona said pulling Callie towards the bedroom.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"ugh how'd I let you guys talk me into this" Arizona said walking into Disney Land
"come on it'll be fun" Addy smiled reaching for Teddy's hand
"if you say so" Arizona rolled her eyes
"come on baby" Callie said pulling Arizona towards a ride
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"can we go on the sit on a bench ride now?" Arizona asked
"we've gone on one ride" Callie laughed
"yeah so?" Arizona laughed
"there you are" a voice said from behind them, turning Arizona saw Miley "hey I didn't think you were coming, I never heard back"
"yeah I was busy" she smiled "Arizona this is Liam"
"how you doing" Arizona smiled a little confused when Miley told her she was seeing someone she had assumed it was a female, she reached out her hand
"good" he smiled
"and Teddy, Addy and Callie, Arizona's wife" Miley went on
"its good to finally meet you all, I've heard a lot about you" he smiled "Addy I was sorry to see you lose, I thought you were good"
"thanks" Addy smiled "Arizona has other plans for me so it's all good"
"I do" Arizona nodded "once we get home"
"good" he smiled "hate to see talent like yours go to waste"
"where too next?" Miley asked looking around
"space mountain" Teddy said dragging Addy in that direction
"space mountain I guess" Arizona said rolling her eyes following the group
xxxxxxxxxxxx
"I'm sitting down now" Arizona said almost falling onto the bench
"big baby" Teddy said
"you guys can keep going I'll meet up with you later" Arizona said
"go on with them I'll keep her company" Miley said looking at Liam
"so" Arizona said once everyone was gone
"so"
"I was under the impression you were dating a woman"
"did I say that?" Miley laughed "no, it was Liam"
"I don't think you said that, but it was the conversation we were having at the time" Arizona laughed
"oh right" Miley smiled "well then"
"yeah" Arizona looked at her friend
"I'm going to miss you" Miley whispered
"me too" Arizona smiled "you've become almost part of the family"
"awe thanks" Miley smiled
"so when are you leaving?" Miley asked they had left the bench in search of something to drink
"I'm thinking Saturday" Arizona said taking a drink "Addy wants to stop in Vegas"
"that's cool"
"Callie and I haven't been there since we got married so it'll be nice"
"you sure are lucky"
"how so"
"Callie is"
"are you sure you don't have a thing for my wife?" Arizona laughed
"oh, I'm sure" Miley winked "and don't worry I'll come visit, I know you'll be busy"
"I'm hoping to get in and record, may slip in a small tour with Addy, and Adam and I have to get together for that song, I'd like to put it on my next album"
"wow you are going to be busy" Miley smiled
"I'm so exhausted" Callie whined plopping down on the chair next to Arizona
"you look like it, here" she said handing her the bottle of water she had
"thanks babe"
"where's everyone else"
"well Liam was right behind me, and I have no idea where Teddy and Addy went"
"I'm ready to go" Arizona said "I need some real food"
"this isn't real food?" Liam said coming up behind them "sorry ran into some fans"
"no not really" Arizona laughed "I'll text Teddy and tell them to call the car when they are ready to leave, I'm over this" Arizona pulled out her phone
"I've been over it since before we got here" Miley laughed
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
"you should have seen it, Arizona was hilarious, she took the little ball and chucked it at Teddy's head, Teddy put up her hand just in time and knocked it back towards her" Callie was laughing so hard remembering the look on Arizona's face "the damn thing had just enough stickiness on it to stick to her forehead"
"thanks" Arizona said rolling her eyes, she didn't remember much about that night, she was too drunk.
"oh, come on" Callie said still breathing heavy from her laughing fit
"you know I hardly remember that night, right?" Arizona smiled
"I know, but it was funny for the rest of us"
"it was mine and Teddy's 23rd birthday party"
"it was great, first time I saw Arizona get drunk"
"that's because we'd only been together a few months" Arizona smiled, leaning over "I remember a few days later when we were out celebrating your 21st"
"please don't tell that story" Callie blushed
"I won't" Arizona smiled and kissed her cheek
"you guys must have had so much fun, coming from a small Midwest town, everything I did was watched closely" Miley said
"trust me we had to be careful, with my parents in the news business, Teddy and I had our share of public humilities', more Teddy than I" Arizona smiled
"I bet" Miley smiled looking at Liam. The waitress brought the bill, leaving Arizona and Miley fighting for it, Arizona finally gave in letting Miley pay. Standing outside the restaurant, Arizona looked her friend "I'll come visit" Miley smiled
"we'd love that" Callie said reaching for Arizona's hand
"guess this is good night" Arizona smiled
"good night" Miley smiled a sad smile, Arizona let go of Callie's hand, reaching out and embracing Miley in a hug, something they had never done. Arizona could feel Miley almost shake, and her heart beating fast. She squeezed tighter and let up, moving away.

"I think it's probably a good thing we are finally done filming and going home" Arizona said once in the car
"why" Callie was happy she was saying those words but couldn't understand why
"because I think the crush has developed into something more" she sighed
"awe, it's too bad, she's such a great friend"
"I think it'll be ok though" Callie looked at her still confused "I mean with her"
"she seems happy with Liam"
"she does" Arizona smiled "I am going to miss her, she became an important role in my life the last few months"
"mine too, she'll come visit and you get to bring another important part home with you"
"yeah no thanks to Teddy" Arizona laughed leaning over kissing Callie on the cheek. "I love you, you know"
"oh, I know" Callie smiled "and I love you"
xxxxxxxxxx
"hey look a wedding chapel" Teddy said, she had Addy's hand walking through the casino that was on the bottom floor of the hotel they were staying in.
"no" Arizona said "you aren't even divorced yet"
"actually, mom called last night, I got the papers, so yes I am" Teddy said sticking out her tongue
"I think it's too soon" Addy whispered, "I'm not ready to take that leap, sorry"
"I was just seeing how Arizona would react" Teddy whispered kissing Addy on the cheek
"I'm going to get cleaned up, you guys do what you want" Arizona said heading towards the elevators, Callie wasn't far behind her, she smiled knowing that would be the case.
"I could use a shower too, I don't know why but those few hours in the car felt like forever"
"good thing we have a long way to go until we get home huh?" Arizona laughed
"oh you'll stop" Callie looked up into the pools of blue
"anything for you" she pulled Callie close kissing the top of her head. Wrapping her arm around her as they waited for the elevator.
"thanks for getting the rooms" Addy said "I promise I'll get a job and pay my fair share once we get back and settled"
"it's no problem" Arizona smiled "someone has to take care of my sissy" Teddy smiled that smile that Arizona saw so many times while growing up, she couldn't help but laugh
"what room are we looking for" Callie stopped looking at the sign, Arizona looked down at the keys she held in her hand "307, you guys are in 309" she handed Addy the key, and followed Callie down the hall.
"you guys do what you want, I'm going to shower and change"
"ok" Teddy smiled going to their door sliding the key card and disappearing. Once inside their room, Arizona tossed the bags on the bed, stretching her back, she felt Callie's hands start to massage her tight muscles. "someone is tense"
"yeah, that drive kind of sucked, I forgot what it was like being stuck in a vehicle for so long"
"well let me fix that" Callie said as she started rubbing harder, hearing Arizona moan, and relax. They were broken from their massage session when there was a knock on the adjacent door. "ugh who's idea was it to get adjacent rooms?" Arizona laughed
"yours my love" Callie said kissing the top of Arizona's head and walked to the door "how the fuck do I open it?" she laughed trying to figure out the lock.
"turn the lock"
"like this?" Callie asked turning the lock she heard Teddy on the other side "get off each other and open the door"
"I'm working on it" Callie laughed, Arizona was now by her side, with a few clicks it was open
"it's about time" Teddy said walking into the room "wow looks just like ours just backwards"
"that's the point dipshit" Arizona said sitting down on the bed "maybe we should have gotten a suite" she added looking around
"nah this is good" Addy smiled standing in the door way "I say just because you're rich don't mean you have to live like it"
"I knew I liked you for a reason" Arizona smiled, digging through her bag, she tossed it on the floor "well let's go have some fun" she got up, and headed towards the door. The 4 of them made their way down the hallway. "need to find an ATM, I don't have any cash"
"I saw one just outside the elevators" Addy smiled "I need to use it too"
"you need some money?" Arizona looked at Teddy
"I got it" Addy winked
"glad you found someone to take care of you" Arizona laughed, feeling Teddy hit her.
"mom and dad sent me some anyway" Teddy stuck her tongue out at her sister. Arizona shook her head. "don't worry I'll get a job when we get home"
"you better, you're not going to live for free" Arizona felt her phone go off, looking at it she saw April's number. "hey I'll meet you guys downstairs I have to take this" she nodded to her phone, she nodded for Callie to go with them "I'll find you when I'm done"
"ok" Callie smiled as the elevator doors open, Arizona stepped back answering her phone "hey you"
"hi" April said somberly
"what's up?"
"nothing really just wanted to see how you were doing. I caught the end of the show, I was sad to see Addison didn't win"
"yeah me too, but it's all good" Arizona smiled, she was happy to hear from April, it'd been too long
"that and I wanted to say I'm going to be back in Madison at the end of the month, was hoping we could get together and go over somethings"
"boss mode" Arizona laughed
"yeah" April was silent
"please tell me this isn't how it's going to be" Arizona said, sliding her key card to the room, going in and sitting on the bed.
"Arizona, I'm trying, I'm sorry"
"I know, I guess I just miss my friend"
"I do too" April paused adding quietly "just give me sometime"
"I will"
"when will you be home?"
"we are actually on our way, I rented a van and we are driving back, they wanted to stop in Vegas for a few days, so" Arizona stopped
"we?"
"yeah, we went home last weekend and Callie flew back out with us, to help pack the house, I can't believe how much shit I accumulated in 6 months" Arizona laughed
"yeah"
"oh good news" Arizona paused "when we get back The Coffee House is ours"
"wow that was quick"
"right Richard is amazing"
"yeah he is"
"any way" Arizona could tell April was having trouble talking to her
"Arizona I'm sorry, I do so miss you, but it's hard to find things to talk about that doesn't involve" she stopped
"I know it's cool, don't worry" Arizona sighed "she's doing great by the way, I hate to say it, especially to you, but I think Addison is good for her" there was a long pause of silence "I'm happy for her, give her my best, but I'm going to get going, I'll get a hold of you when I'm back in Madison"
"ok" Arizona sighed "and I will"
"thanks talk to you soon"
"April" Arizona said into the phone
"yeah"
"I love you" Arizona said quietly
"love you too kiddo" April said "bye"
"bye" Arizona pushed the end button staring at her phone, she sighed, "she's never called me kiddo before" she said to herself, shaking her head, she stood up and made her way down to find the group. Finding them at a slot machine a few feet away from the elevators she saw Callie laughing, smiling to herself she walked up behind her "did you lose all our money?"
"no, I'm winning see" Callie smiled pointing at the machine
"holy shit" Arizona said looking at the credits Callie had
"I stuck in a 20"
"how much is it?"
"it's about 500 bucks" Addy smiled from the seat next to her
"nice"
"holy shit, holy shit, holy shit" Teddy said putting her hands in the air
"what?"
"I just hit the jackpot"
"what?" Arizona said trying to look over and see Teddy's machine, but she was too far away
"5 grand" Teddy said excitedly "5 grand baby" she leaned over kissing Addy.
"probably the most money she's ever seen" Arizona whispered to Callie, who let out a giggle. "well cash out and get your money"
"I have free spins I'm not done yet"
"well I'm done" Callie said hitting the cash out button on her machine "I'll go cash this in, then you won't have to get any more cash"
"sounds good baby" Arizona smiled as Callie leaned in kissing, standing up and heading to the cash machine. Arizona turned her attention to Teddy "how much you got now?"
"like 6 grand"
"damn"
"she's excited" Addy laughed
"yeah she's never seen that much money before"
"apparently" Addy smiled, one thing Arizona loved about Addison was how levelheaded she was.
"damn didn't win on that one" Teddy said hitting the cash out button, "guess I gotta take this to the counter huh?"
"make sure you have your id, they will probably give you a check"
"we'll see" Teddy nodded for Addy to follow her.
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
"that was fun" Teddy said they were sitting down for dinner at one of the higher priced restaurants. Arizona decided she wanted real food, so they agreed to go there.
"how long are we staying?" Addy asked taking a drink of her long island iced tea
"I thought a couple days, I want to take a walk down the strip, maybe catch a show or something. Last time we were here we didn't get to do much with the wedding and April made me do a show"
"she made you?" Addy laughed
"yeah" Arizona sighed "this time, I don't think anyone has even recognized me"
"they did, I heard a few people talking" Teddy said "they recognized both of you"
"hmm" Arizona said surprised no one had approached her asking for an autograph or a picture
"I'm enjoying her not being in the spot light for once" Callie smiled
"it is nice" Arizona sat back in her chair, the waitress approached "is there anything else Ms Robbins"
"um" Arizona looked around at the group, who shook their heads "no, just the bill thank you" the waitress nodded, digging through her folder, pulling out their bill setting it on the table.
"I'm sorry but I was wondering if I could get a picture with the two of you" she asked, Arizona could hear the shakiness of her voice. Arizona looked at Addy who smiled and said "we'd love to" she made her way to Arizona, who stood.
"here I'll take it" Callie said standing and reaching for the phone
"thank you" the waitress said, Callie snapped a few pictures, handing it back to her "I took a few of them, hope they turned out alright, as I'm not that good with taking pictures"
"I'm sure they are fine, thank you so much" the waitress smiled, Arizona nodded with a smile.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"so that's what it's like being popular" Addison giggled
"well" Arizona smiled "that was nothing compared to what you're going to face in the future"
"great"
"so what do you guys want to do now?" Arizona asked
"more gambling" Teddy said
"alright more gambling it is" Arizona said looking at Callie who smiled. Arizona felt her phone go off, pulling it out she read a text "go fucking figure"
"what"
"Miley is here" she laughed
"no way, where?" Callie asked reaching for Arizona's hand and looking around
"I'm not sure but she said she can see us"
"hmm" Callie turned her head, seeing Miley standing by an ATM, with a sad look on her face. Callie assumed it was because she had a hold of Arizona's hand "I see her" she whispered not sure how to react
"where?" Arizona asked looking in the same direction as Callie "ah" she smiled pulling Callie towards Miley. Callie watched as Miley's expression changed when she noticed she had Arizona's attention, and made a mental note to talk to Arizona about it later. "do you have to follow me everywhere?" Arizona laughed once they got closer
"well" Miley smiled "I, ah yeah" she laughed "hi Callie"
"hello" Callie smiled squeezing Arizona's hand.
"were you in the middle of something?"
"no we just finished dinner, Teddy wanted to do some more gambling so they took off"
"ah" Miley said looking around
"I was kind of wanting to take a walk and maybe check out the casino across the street" Callie said "see what shows are playing, baby, you said you wanted to see one"
"well" Miley said looking at Callie "would you mind if I joined you?" Callie smiled and nodded towards the door
"you're here alone?" Arizona asked
"yeah" Miley looked down sad "Liam was busy, and I didn't want to sit home"
"so follow us to Vegas" Callie said, hoping it didn't come out as bitchy as it sounded
"yeah well"
"come on" Callie reached out grabbing Miley's hand with her free hand pulling her along with them. She wasn't jealous of Miley, but she knew that she and Arizona had become close in the time Arizona spent in LA, so it really didn't surprise her that she showed up here.
"oh my god" Arizona said seeing the sign that was set up outside "Elton John is here, we have to get tickets"
"I got one better, if you really want to see him" Miley said pulling out her phone
"of course, she does, he's her idol"
"not my idol, but I do love him"
"ok, give me a minute" Miley said nodding to her phone as she stepped away, coming back a few minutes later "the show is at 9, there's tickets and back stage passes waiting at the ticket counter"
"really?" Arizona asked surprised
"you know with as big as you are, I'm surprised you don't have more hook ups, and that you've never met him"
"you have?"
"yes" she smiled "we did a show together a few years ago in New York"
"wow" Callie said "baby you need to get yourself out there, I want to meet Bruno Marz or Jason Mraz"
"she thinks they're hot" Arizona rolled her eyes laughing
"so you're not entirely lezbo" Miley laughed
"oh no I am, there's only a handful of guys I think are hot, but I don't want to sleep with any"
"been there done that?" Miley asked
"actually, no I haven't ever been with a guy" Callie smiled surprised she wasn't embarrassed "to be completely honest Arizona is my first"
"and only" Arizona leaned in kissing her
"what about you?" Miley asked looking at Arizona,
"same" Arizona looked down
"wow, so both of you have only been with one another"
"yup" Arizona said, "I dated before Callie, but we never slept together, Teddy doesn't know that though, I remember she asked me if I was going to sleep with you on our first date"
"shouldn't we be having this conversation somewhere more private" Callie asked noticing they were standing on the sidewalk of the Las Vegas strip.
Arizona laughed kissing Callie's cheek. "come on let's go check out this casino"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"I'll be right back" Miley said looking down at her phone, then disappearing into a crowd of people. A few minutes later Arizona felt her phone go off with a text from her. "I guess we're supposed to meet her over by the ticket window"
"when" Callie asked looking at the machine she had just stuck money in
"now" Arizona said not looking up from her phone
"ok hold on" Callie smiled she hit max bet and the machine started to spin.
"why didn't you just cash out?" Arizona laughed seeing what Callie had done
"this is more fun" Callie smiled as she hit it again. "dammit I won"
"baby just cash out we'll come back later"
"one more spin" Callie hit the button, watching it spin around "guh, ok" she hit the cash out button, Arizona grabbed the ticket "how much did you put in?"
"a twenty" Callie laughed looking over at the ticket that read $250
"nice" Arizona smiled "come on" she reached for Callie's hand, maneuvering through the crowd when she spotted Miley
"hey, come on" she nodded for them to follow her
"where are we going?" Arizona asked, her hand still tightly grasp on Callie's
"you'll see" Miley smiled, opening a door for them. They followed her down a dimly lit hall, stopped in front of a door when she knocked.
"what are we doing?" Arizona asked
"you really need to get some more contacts" Miley smiled as the door was opened and Elton John appeared on the other side
"Miley" he squealed holding out his arms to give her a hug "it's so great to see you again"
"same to you Sir" she smiled "this is Arizona Robbins and her wife Callie"
"Arizona Robbins" he smiled, Arizona nodded "I hear you're a big fan"
"ah, yup" was all Arizona could get out, even after all this time being famous she was still shy
"she loves you" Callie smiled coming to Arizona's rescue.
"do come in" he said moving away from the door "please don't mind the mess my dressing rooms always look like this before a show"
"so does mine" Arizona smiled looking at Callie
"what do I owe this honor" he asked sitting down in a chair
"Arizona saw you were preforming tonight and wanted to see you" Miley smiled
"please tell me you didn't pay full price for the tickets"
"I didn't" Miley smiled "I have connections remember" she winked
"yes you do" he smiled. Arizona finally felt herself relax as the conversation started going. "I have an idea" he smiled looking at Arizona "why don't you join me on stage for a song or two"
"really? That'd be amazing, but"
"it's done, I'll set it up, and the three of you are watching the show from backstage" Arizona couldn't believe what he was saying, she never in a million years thought she'd meet Elton John let alone have a chance to sing with him.
"I should probably let Teddy and Addy know in case she starts looking for us" Arizona said looking at Callie
"whose Teddy?" he asked confused
"she's my sister, she and her girlfriend, are here with us"
"well" he said "no need for them to miss the show" he called for his manager. Arizona looked at Miley with confusion written all over her face "what's her name"
"ah, Teddy Robbins" Arizona smiled
"obviously" he smiled then turned to his manager, "ok let her know there's tickets at the ticket window, tell her to just give her name and they are in" Arizona smiled pulling out her phone to call Teddy.

The crowd was going wild, as Elton John went through his songs. Arizona was singing along from backstage. "alright Las Vegas, I have a special treat for you all" he paused to look over at the side stage where Arizona, Callie and Miley were standing. "Arizona, Miley would you join me out here"
"both of us?" Miley asked smiling
"well don't just stand there go" Callie smiled pushing them in the direction of the stage. Taking a deep breath Arizona followed Miley onto the stage. As they heard "you should all know Miley Cyrus, and if you don't know who Arizona Robbins is, well your sol" he smiled "I called you girls out here to give me a hand on this next one" the band started playing
"oh my god I love this song" Arizona said to Miley who smiled and grabbed a mic. They ran through a few more songs before they left the stage leaving Elton John to finish his show.

"god that was amazing" Arizona smiled
"you looked pretty damn good out there" Callie smiled
"thanks baby" Arizona leaned in kissing her
"yeah you looked pretty damn good out there" Miley smiled
"god, get a room" Teddy laughed
"I have one" Arizona winked
"you did look good up there, sissy, are you happy one of your dreams came true"
"that was one of your dreams?" Miley asked confused
"it's sad but true" Arizona smiled "I have loved him since I was little"
"when she cried mom would play him and she'd stop instantly" Teddy said
"wow" Miley laughed
"I didn't know that either" Callie laughed
"thanks sissy" Arizona gave her the look "felt so good to be back on stage"
"how long has it been?" Miley asked
"um" Arizona looked at Callie, and laughed "not even a year"
"that's not that long" Miley smiled "did you want me to set something up while you're here?"
"ah" Arizona looked at Callie, smiling "no"
They heard the music stop, and soon Arizona's idol was standing in the doorway. "I hope you aren't planning on ditching out on me"
"ah" Arizona looked around
"there's a party, and you have to come" he looked at Miley who shrugged her shoulders looking at Arizona, who had a smile on her face so big. "party it is" Arizona said.
Arizona got to meet her idol. What did you all think of this chapter?
