Chapter 5: The next day

AN: A shorter one to get things going

Callie POV

I've been up for about 10 minutes now replaying last night since dinner in my head. Arizona is curled at my side with one leg thrown over my hip and her foot on my calf while her arm somehow slipped partly under my shirt with her palm holding my hip and her fingertips slightly tickling my side. It is truly an awesome feeling, to finally have this woman next to me.

Wait. Do I HAVE her yet? Damn I really hope so. That being another thing I am thinking about, needing to talk with her. I know I want her to be my girlfriend, because I really wanna be hers but I don't want to seem like the desperate and clingy girl that fawns over someone.

Arizona. Girlfriend. Arizona is my girlfriend. Woah, slow down there, she isn't even awake.. But it does sound nice, "Arizona is my girlfriend.." I say softly out loud to myself.

To my right I hear a barely audible, "Hmmmm?" and I tense. Shit did she hear me? She probably thinks I'm a weirdo..those thoughts quickly disappear when I feel Arizona move her arm up higher up to my curve of my stomach and turn her head into my neck. I sigh in contentment and run my fingers through her hair.

About 15 minutes later my bladder decides to get the best of me. I slip out of the bed and down the hall to the bathroom. I brush my teeth too just so I don't gross her out with morning breath. Returning back to her room, I stop. Do I get back in? Was I supposed to stay all night? Is she gonna regret last night?

My thoughts are cut short when I see Arizona hugging the pillow I was using and her hand laying where my body was 2 minutes ago. Going against my conscious I walk over to the bed and get back in. I guess when Arizona felt my body near her hand she realized it was me and pulled me close. Wrapping her arm around my back and pulling me close enough to where our fronts were practically pressed together.

Looking down at her I brush the hair out of her face and see a small smile form, "You're back." 'I'll always be back' Her blue eyes sparkle at me when she opens them and I say, "Good morning."

"Yes it is." Arizona replies with I smirk.

I gasp at her and say, "Arizona Robbins, such crude this early in the morning?" Her next move was definitely one I did not see coming when she rolls me on my back and straddles my hips.

"Am I wrong? Because I seem to be enjoying this now great morning." She leans down with her lips mere centimeters from mine but pulls back and says, "But I can stop if you want.."

She goes to move but I quickly stop her with a hand on her hip and bring one up behind her neck to pull her down to me. Arizona took the hint and closes the distance between us...finally! Our lips meet and it's like sparks ignited. 'Man I bet this will never get old.' It's a little less innocent than a good morning kiss but I'll take what I can get right.

"What do you say we get up and make some breakfast?" She says while leaning over me.

"No I want more sleep!" I roll over on my back leaving Arizona now straddling my ass. I feel her move my hair off of my back and start kissing my neck. "Come on Calliope..." I quickly tense up...my full name?

"You k-know my f-f-full name? I struggle getting out because of the lips on my back.

"Yeah, I just have never seen a time to use it, but now seems like the perfect time to start if I do say so myself." Arizona says while running her hands up and down my back, "Now how about that breakfast Calliope?"

"Ugh, fine..." I get out of her bed feigning irritation then quickly slap Arizona on the ass on my way out now smiling.

Arizona takes a seat at the kitchen bar while I start getting stuff out for breakfast. I turn to her sitting a tilt my head and she smiles and says, "What? You know I can't cook, so I'll just enjoy the view."

Arizona POV

I couldn't ask for a better morning so far. Callie is just so entrancing. The only thing that could make everything better is making it official.

Shit am I moving too fast? I really don't want to scare her off. I guess the only way to find out is to try, right?

"So um Callie," I get hmm in response so I continue,"about last night, I uh hope I didn't freak you out too much with me putting everything out there. But yeah, I meant all of it an-"

"Don't kill yourself there Zones, let me get a few words in here," she giggles a little, "it was a lot to take in last night, but I'm so so so glad it happened. Don't get weirded out but I've kinda had feeling for you since you and Joanne were dating. I just have always been attracted to you so yeah...And so I was serious when I said I really really like you too. I was wondering actually if you wanted to go on a date with me tonight?" Callie says to me while continuing to make breakfast.

Oh this should be great, "No not tonight actually." She looks at me with shock and confusion, "I will go on a date with you tomorrow because I just want to hang out with you today...if that's okay." I give her a shy smile.

"Jesus Zones you scared me for a second but, yeah tomorrow is good too." With that we eat breakfast in the comfortability of each other.

A thought pops into my head later on when we are in my room watching TV, "Can I ask you a question Cal?" She faces me and nods her head, "Teds mentioned something about the USA Volleyball Team is having tryouts in like a month, are you doing it?"

"Oh yeah, Addie talked me into it, are you?"

"Yeah I think so. That would be so cool if we all played together! We would be awesome!" She looks at me and I say, "What?"

"Awesome?"

"Get used to it Calliope." I smile at her.

General POV

Callie and Arizona spent the rest of the day with each other, lounging around and watching movies and stealing looks and kisses casually.

Almost like the were meant to do it.

Callie left Arizona's when Addie came to drop Teddy off from when they spent their day together.

Both girls fell asleep thinking about the other an waiting for their overdue date the next night.

Date night next chapter and maybe a slight time jump after. maybe
