Chapter 6: First Dates
Arizona POV
Cleaning. It's what I do when I'm either nervous, anxious, mad, or just trying to distract myself. After Callie left yesterday, I'm not gonna lie it was a little upsetting. Teddy went to do homework so I was kind of left with myself and my thoughts. And those thoughts led me to thinking about a time where I won't have to be alone, and one tall, sexy Latina would be my company. I know, I know we haven't even had our first date let alone girlfriend status but I just can't help but feel one hundred times more optimistic about us than any other relationship.
So I woke up at about 7 or so and took a shower. I am letting my hair dry naturally for our date so in the mean time I am cleaning. The kitchen, bathroom, my room everything to kill 4 hours.
Callie text me last night before I went to bed and said she would be here at 11 and asked if I minded it being an all day date.
Hell no I don't mind! Who wouldn't want to spend a whole day with Callie?!
She said dress casual and comfy so I'm curious to see what she has in mind, but to be honest I could care less what we do if it means I get to spend time with Callie.
I'm looking through my closet with about an hour before Callie gets here when Teddy comes in, "What's up Zona, you ready to finally go on a date with someone who deserves you?"
"Ugh Teddy lets just not even indirectly talk about the whore please, but of course! I just hope that things go smoothly. I really have a good feeling about this."
I pull out a pair of black nike straight leg lounge pants and a white loose long sleeve under armour shirt while Teddy continues, "How sweet would it be if we both end up with Addie and Callie? Like they could be the loves of our lives and they were already best friends and we are best friends. Does that make sense? Like I just find it a little creepy but a little great!"
"Yeah Teds that would be pretty damn great." I start to day dream about what Teddy said. Callie and I together down the road with kids and...WOAH!
Damn I really need to slow down here! Jesus!
"Alright Teds unless you want a show I suggest you leave so I can get ready." Teddy stays where she's at, "THEODORA LEAVE!"
"What? At least you wouldn't be a tease like Addie, a girl could try!" She says getting up to leave.
"Teddy gross, ew, leave now."
20 minutes later after I'm casually dressed and laying in my bed my phone vibrates.
Leaving my dorm now. Be there in 10
-Cal
Okay good thing I'm ready early. looks like someone's anxious!
-Zona
Or I just want to spend a little extra time with you? lol
-Cal
I'm definitely down with that. Now stop texting and driving and hurry up!
-Zona
Don't tell Teddy but I'm bringing her a surprise!
-Cal
STOP TEXTING CALLIOPE!
-Zona
10 minutes later there is a knock on our dorm door. I open it to find a stunning Latina outside.
"Hi, you wouldn't know where to find a blonde looking to go on a date with me today would you?" She says with a smirk.
"Um no, no one here,nope." I say with a smile.
Callie take my hand and pulls me to her laying a sweet kiss on my lips, "Hey you."
"Ewh get a room!" Teddy says from the kitchen.
A fourth voice chimes in and says, "Why Theodora, I'll take you up on that offer." Addison strolls past us and toward her girlfriend.
"Addie oh my gosh! It's been so long! I haven't seen you in what? Like 12 hours?" Teddy says with sweet sarcasm.
"Shut up Teddy." And with that we witness the two love birds take each other away to Teddy's room and I hear Callie say, "Promise me we will be that happy."
I turn to her and smile because that statement makes my heart flutter and say, "I promise."
We leave my dorm and drive for about 20 minutes. Its raining so I can't possibly imagine what we are going to do. We pull up in front of this mansion and my jaw drops. "Calliope? Who's house is this?"
"It's uh mine...my parents have two houses here. One just in case family comes and we don't want them staying at a hotel. So I kinda made sure no one was here and that all of the staff went home so it could just be me and you."
"Staff? Of course it's fine! We could be sitting on a desert and I'd be okay because your here it doesn't matter." I say turning my attention back to Callie.
"Well okay then! As long as your okay with it." She pulls the car into a four car garage attached to the house. Opening my door she helps me out and takes me into the house still holding my hand. Walking in through the garage we go straight into the kitchen. I am met with the most gorgeous kitchen I have ever seen! Dark wood cabinets with granite counter tops. A beautiful island in the middle, with a gas stove on top and a wine refrigerator on the side. A pantry and the main refrigerator are along the wall opposite of the counter.
"Calliope, this is beautiful!" I say looking at her.
"Tell me about it. I think this is my dream home sometimes. I used to come here a lot when I first got my license. It was sort of my escape from my family. Addie and I hung out here a lot. And I still come here from time to time because no body is ever here." She says as she takes her coat off and gets out two bottles of water. "Make yourself at home Zones, that's what this will be for the rest of the day."
I look at her and smile, doing just that. I take off my hoodie, and shoes. I walk over to Callie and slip my arm around her back, caressing it as it moves all the way across, and hearing her breathing skip, all the while grabbing one of the bottles of water she got out.
Just as fast as I did it, I left, walking to where I don't know and I hear Callie yell out, "Where are you going?"
"I don't know! But I guess I'll find out!" I yell back, exploring the house.
When Callie finds me, I am out on a balcony I found that over looks the city. She wraps her arms around my waist from behind. "I used to come out her every morning and watch the sun rise. It is absolutely gorgeous."
Settling back into her embrace we watch the afternoon fly by us for about 20 minutes. Just Callie and I. It feels so great.
Callie POV
I sent a quick thank you to whoever is up there that Arizona went on her little 'exploration'. It gave me time to set up the last few things and get myself at home as well.
When I find her out on the balcony slightly leaning over I think, 'Goodness gracious'. This women is stunning, absolutely gorgeous.
And sexy. Definitely sexy.
I take a minute or so to just admire her. The way her shirt hangs loosely but enough to where you can make out her curves and shoulders. And her pants, I swear I have a thing for her ass now. Pants like that were meant to be worn by her. Tight around her ass but loose going down her legs.
Deciding to make my presence known, I walk up behind her, with out thinking, and wrap my arms around her waist. 'Wow we fit perfectly together.'
I decide to tell her that I used to come out here every morning to watch the sun rise. I feel her settle more back into me giving me an acknowledgment of my comment, while I also try to hard not to concentrate on her ass that is not to subtly pushing against my center. 'Fuck Callie, as much as you want to take her, no. Stop.'
After about 20 minutes of watching Seattle I ask, "So did you tour the rest of the house?" I feel her body shiver when I talk.
"Uh, n-no, I didn't uh, I couldn't find my way to the bedr- I mean bathroom so I found this and just watched." She stutters a little with her response. I quickly remove myself from her but that doesn't last very long.
Next thing I know she is walking towards me with her eyes a shade darker. I stop when I can't go any further. Arizona stops about an inch from me and brings her hand up to my face. She traces her finger over the curve of my cheek down to my chin and whispers, "Do you know how beautiful you are?"
We look into each other's eyes, "I could ask you the same thing." With that I close the distance and kiss her. She puts her hands on my hips and pulls me to her.
After a few kisses, not getting too carried away I pull back and say, "Beautiful."
Shifting to a less serious tone, I take Arizona's hand and bring her back into the house.
"So do you want a tour of the rest of the house? Or do you want to try and find your way around?" I say walking into the living room.
"A tour would be awesome!"
We walk through the house, hands still clasped together. After showing her the upstairs, we walk down stairs. To the right is the bathroom, and the left is a pool table, bar, and a big ass TV with leather couches.
Walking to the other side of the room I say, "This is sorta my place, I always am in here, so yeah." I open the door into a cozy but spacious room. There is a guest bed in a corner right when you walk in. But this isn't where Arizona and I will be spending our date.
She looks confused so I lead her further. The next door is to the right of the bed. This is why this is my place. It opens up to a 4-seat theater with a projector and everything.
"Is this a theater Calliope?"
"Uh yeah, I thought it'd be nice to chill and relax. I know it's kind of a sucky way to have a first date, but I didn't want to put it off any long and plus it's raini-" I am cut off by her lips on mine. Damn she's good. She pulls back and smiles, "I love it Calliope. It's pretty awesome if you ask me."
With that, we both get comfortable on the chairs and start a movie day. I order pizza around 1 o'clock during a movie.
The silence is broken by Arizona, "Is it weird that we don't really have to do that 'get to know you' the basic stuff? I don't know about you but I'd like to think I know the basics right?"
"Right Zones, and I'd like to think we are already pretty comfortable around each other." I say looking over at her. Then she gets up out of her chair and walks over to mine. I give her a confused look and she doesn't help me out just sits right in my chair with me and brings my arm around her shoulders. "Comfortable, of course." she says with a hint of amusement.
"Can I ask you another question Callie?" She says while play with my hand not around her shoulder.
"Sure."
"Why do you call me Zones? I mean not that I don't like it, it's just different and no one calls me that."
"Oh well I don't really know, it just kinda slipped out and it seemed right, so I keep saying it. That's okay right?" I respond looking down at her. I get the cutest smile and a nod of her head in return.
About 30 minutes later I remove myself from Arizona only to be tried to be pulled back down not a second later, "Where are you going?"
"Just to get the pizza and some drinks, you want one?" I ask as she lets me up.
"Whatever you're having works."
Going upstairs I get to the door right as the guy gets there, "Well what a lovely surprise to deliver to such a lovely looking lady." He tries to say smoothly. I give him a weak and unappealing smile and say, "Thank you." and take the pizzas. But before he uses his pen and writes down his number on the box saying, "If the guy your here with doesn't fulfill you then give me a call beautiful." What the hell is this guy doing? Flirting? "Gee, thanks." With that I take the pizzas and go to the kitchen and grab a bottle of moscato. What I love my pizza with wine? I let myself laugh at the pizza guy. What a weirdo.
Walking back downstairs I let myself laugh at the previous situation. All my laughing stops when I see Arizona. A bent over Arizona might I add. I awkwardly make my presence known when I bump in to the door frame. And just my luck she catches me staring.
"So you got the pizza?" She asks with amusement.
"Yeah and I hope you like Moscato because that's what I drink with pizza." I sit back down in my chair and look at the projector, "Saw, Arizona? You hate scary movies and you know we don't have to watch this just so you can sit with me."
"Don't flatter yourself too much, I caught you staring..." Damn. I'm beat.
"Okay fine, lets eat. I'm starving." Arizona grabs one of the boxes and looks at me, then back at the box and then back at me, "Uh did you need this phone number Callie?"
Shit. "No actually the pizza guy was a horrible flirt and tried to pick me up and wrote his number saying for me to call him...which I won't." Woah, someone's a little pissy and jealous. "You okay there Zones?"
"Uh no, it's a little unsettling when all you do is walk up the stairs and some pizza guy has the audacity to hit on my girlfriend," What? Girlfriend? I stare at her while she rambles on, "Did he think you were going to eat all of that pizza by yourself and that you didn't have any-, what's wrong?"
Silence. "Shit," She says, "I'm sorry, it slipped, I didn't assume or anything besides its our first date and like I said it slip-" I cut her off with a hand over her mouth. "Do you want me to be?"
"What?"
"Your girlfriend, do you want me to be your girlfriend? I mean if you ask me I'm not going to be going out with anyone and if you aren't then it's kinda inevitable so why wait?" I say quickly.
"YES!" Arizona also says quickly.
"Good so I can do this," I lay a hard, passionate, and sexy kiss on her lips, turning her body slightly to slide my hand to the area where her back meets her hip. When I let her up I continue, "because I have been wanting to kiss you like that for a really long time."
She is stunned silent. I Callie Torres, stunned Arizona Robbins into silence. Finally she looks at me, and smiles. She leans in a places the softest kiss on my lips, "Awesome."
It's about 10 o'clock and I have literally had the best time. We have watched movie after movie, talking, cuddling, and stealing kisses. I can see Arizona starting to get tired and close her eyes. "Zones. Babe, do you want me to take you home now?"
I get a grunt in response and with the way the chair is reclined we are practically laying flat, so Arizona rolls over on her side and pulls my arm around her, "Not really. Can we just stay here tonight and just sleep? I don't want to leave you." She says sleepily but with sentiment.
I get up real quick and Arizona notices that I left and looks for me. I grab a big blanket and return to the chair. "Here we go." I turn back over and snuggle to her back with her pulling my arm tighter around her stomach while intertwining our hands. She brings our hands up to her mouth and lays the lightest kiss on the back of my hand, "Goodnight Calliope."
I didn't really want to wait much longer for the girlfriend part. Sorry this chapter took a little longer. Review!
