Chapter 78 - Epilogue
A lazy moan escaped the parted pink lips. Instant pleasure pulled the sleeping woman further and further away from her tasteful dreamland but she didn't mind. Why would she mind being woken up by the love that her wife was currently giving her?
"Calliope..." One hand ran into the jet black silky lock between her thighs, another one over the strong hand that was resting on her hip, Arizona breathed out another involuntary groan.
Callie smiled against her wife's delicate skin. Gazing up, she couldn't see the beautiful blue eyes behind the half closed eyelids, but without a doubt, her wife was watching her. Having a small child in their lives, the luxurious of beginning a day being intimate had come rare. But this morning, there won't be a little girl demanding the attention from her mothers, the brunette was going to take full advantage of it. Waking up her wife in the most delicious way would be the start of it.
Slowly and tenderly, she continued dragging her lips up and down, delighted to find the wetness under her lips thickened by the second. She ran her textured tongue up between the blonde's slick labia in long, soft strokes, collecting the sweet nectar into her mouth. Callie couldn't hold back a moan feeling the heady flavor invaded her every taste bud.
Arizona melted further onto the bed. By the way how the familiar tongue moved around her lips, sucking at them, nibbling at them, deliberately passing over her throbbing bundle of nerve, she knew this was not going to be a quick fix. And she was more than happy to give herself to this woman that she loved more than life. Moaning softly, the blonde slid a leg over the strong shoulder, letting her body relax and just enjoy the gentle caresses of the talented mouth.
But the sweet torture couldn't carry on forever. Eventually, Arizona's breath was getting shallow and fast. Squirming slightly, she lifted her hips and threaded her fingers further into the raven hair.
"Calliope..." The blonde whimpered when the tongue yet again just swirling around her open in featherlike touch. "I need you."
Callie smiled again. For all the things in the whole wide world that she would deny, the need of her wife wasn't and wouldn't be one of them. And she knew that her wife knew it.
Bringing her lips to wrap around the little love button, sucking deep but gentle alternative with lashing it with her tongue just the way her wife loved it, the brunette was not surprised to feel the body under her mouth shuddering deeply.
"Yes... right there..." Arizona moaned between gasping breath. Her back arched when a long, strong finger slipped in her, adding one more layer of pleasure.
Slowly moving the finger in and out, Callie looked up the length of the radiant body. Blonde head threw back showcasing the elegant neckline, eyes shut tight with long eyelashes fluttering as waves of pleasure running through her veins, pearly white teeth bit down on her lower lips... This was a view that Callie would never tired of seeing. And she thanked god for she would be the only seeing it.
Keeping her tongue swirled around, the brunette added another finger in the next thrust. A sounding gasp passed the pink lips as the fingers curved and pressed against her sweet spot firmly. Her grip on the black hair was getting tighter and tighter when the fingers started to message the magic spot in time with the movement of the tongue. It didn't take long for Arizona to feel the pull in her lower belly. She tried to hold out but a glance at the dark as night sky intense eyes between her thighs, the orgasm hit her like a freight train in full force. Her hips rose into the air, trailing off a long outright squeal of ecstasy.
Callie withdrew her fingers and replaced by her tongue when she felt the first spasm within the slick inner flesh. The strong muscle spiraled in and out of the wetness prolonging the blonde's excitement as one of her hand wrapped around the bucking hips, and the other entwined with her wife's shaking hand.
Finally, Arizona relaxed and flopped down onto the bed.
The brunette kissed the top of the blonde's mound and then picked up the turkey baster that she put beside her earlier. Gently placed it inside her wife, she squeezed the pump. Once the tube was empty, she kissed her way up the thoroughly spent body until she was met with a drowsy smile.
"Happy two years anniversary." Callie said before bringing her lips to the still panting mouth. She pulled back slightly thinking the blonde might need another minute to catch her breath, but a hand around her neck pulling her back.
"Happy two years anniversary. And I love you." Arizona breathed out against her wife's lips, humming softly tasting herself on the full lips. "I thought we have finished up those stuffs last night?"
"Yeah? I put some aside for this morning." The brunette waved the turkey baster still in her hand with a wink. Kissing the woman one more time, she picked up a pillow placing it under her wife, elevating her hips and then pulled up the blanket covering their bodies. "Are you hungry? I'll bring you the breakfast in bed."
"You don't have to do that, Calliope." Arizona laughed watching her wife took care of her, making sure she was warm and cozy in bed.
"Hey, remember what I said last year?" Propping her head up by the elbow, Callie looked at her wife lovingly. "You did all the works on our wedding day. I'm gonna do everything for you on our anniversary."
"You serious about that?" Caressing the smiley face with a hand, the blonde felt her heart swelled with love. "How long is it going to be going on?"
"As long as I live." The brunette whispered before leaning down to kiss her wife on the lips one more time. She'd never tired of kissing this woman. "So, what do you want for breakfast?"
"I'm not hungry yet. Just... stay here with me?" Arizona batted her eyelashes with a purse of lips, a look that her wife would never say no to. She let out a content little sign when Callie settled on the bed cuddling up against her side. "This is nice."
"It is." The brunette nuzzled her face into Arizona's neck, a hand caressing the blonde's naked flesh tenderly. "I miss this. You and me, naked in bed doing nothing in the morning... Do you think your parents would mind if I ask them having Sofia once a week?"
"You really want to ship off our daughter so you can have a morning just lying in bed?" The blonde's body shook from laughing. "And yet we're going to bring another baby to the world."
"Hey, it's not like I'm sending her to a boarding school or something. I love our daughter, but I just love her mother more." Tilting her head looking deep into her wife's blue eyes, Callie's smile went wider when the blonde kissed her on the nose.
"You're such a sweet talker." Arizona stroke her wife's face and then brought the hand to wrap around the curvy body. "I'm sure my mom would love to have more time with her precious little grandbaby. Do you think Sofia would be okay with it?"
"What? Spend the night with grandpapa?" The brunette rolled her eyes with a little laugh. "I'm sure your dad feeding her ice-cream before bed."
"No, I mean, us having another baby. You know, she has been the center of our family ever since she was born." The blonde said softly. Sofia was not just loved by her mothers. She had her two sets of grandparents wrapped around her little finger. Of course it wouldn't change even though there'd be another little human in the house, it would still be hard for a little girl when the focus was no longer solely on her.
"I wouldn't worry too much about that." Picking up the uncertainty in her wife's voice, Callie simply reminded the woman. "Remember last week we brought her visiting Lexie? She couldn't stop kissing the baby. And with Zola? They're just like two peas in a pod. If she knows that she can demand a Christmas present, I wouldn't surprise that she'd ask for a little brother or sister."
"It's really nice for Derek and Meredith adopting that girl." Talking about the new friend of their daughter brought a soft smile on the blonde's face. "I'd hate to see that poor girl being sent back to Africa."
"They found each other. Derek fell in love with Zola the moment he met her. And Meredith's really grateful for your Africa project, you know?" The brunette said, proud of her wife's achievement.
In the past year, Arizona and the new chief of surgery of Seattle Grace had partnered with Carter Madison Grant bringing dozens of sick children from Africa to Seattle for proper treatments that they wouldn't be able to receive in their hometowns. It was a great success. Especially they had found permanent homes for some of the orphans in the process. The Shepherds was one of the couple that offered a place in their hearts for a two years old little girl.
"Yeah, she told me." Arizona buried her nose into the dark hair inhaled deeply. There was a worry in her mind for a while and she was not able to shake off. "Do you think... I really want to have our baby, but we've tried for a couple months, Callie. If I couldn't get pregnant, just like Meredith..."
"Just a couple months, honey." Callie propped her head up by the elbow again. She knew what her wife was thinking. It would be a lie if she said that she didn't have the same idea crossed her mind seeing the disappointed look on the blonde's face in the last two months, but she was not going to put any pressure on the woman she loved so dearly.
"Some people get pregnant in their first try." Pink lips pouted slightly.
"Some people take longer time. You're a doctor, you know the odds." Placing a hand on the ivory cheek, the brunette softly coaxed the blue eyes to meet with hers. "And there are two of us. I can try next year after finished my residency."
"So you're opposed to the idea of adopting another baby..." The blonde blinked up at her wife with a little disappointment.
"No, of course not. If we're going to adopt another baby, we'd love it just like we love Sofia." A tan finger trailed along the angelic face seductively. "But I just... I really want to see a mini Arizona. She is going to have your beautiful blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes... It'd be perfect if she has your dimples too."
"She? You want another girl?" Arizona looked at the brunette with uplifted eyebrows. They hadn't really talked about the gender of their next child. "I kinda prefer a boy. I had a lot of fun growing up with a brother."
"Yeah? Then we'll have a boy, and then a girl, and many more." Callie breathed out against the pink lips before nibbling at it tenderly. She pulled back before her wife got to deepen the kiss. Looking longingly into the blue eyes, she smiled. "Sofia will make a great big sister. And you, I don't want you to worry about anything. Everything will be fine. We'll have our babies. One way or another."
Callie was right. There was nothing to worry about.
"Breathe, honey. Breathe." Holding tight on the blonde's shoulders from behind, Callie inhaled and exhaled deeply between each encouraging word. "Just breathe-"
"I am breathing!" Arizona bawled with her face screwed up in pain. She felt like someone had taken hold of her insides and were wringing them out like a wet dishrag. And her wife breathing into her ear wasn't helping.
"Okay Arizona, I'd need you to give me a big push in the next contraction." Addison said between the blonde's wide spread legs. "Here it comes. Push!"
"Ahh~" The blonde let out a long scream as her head bowed down, using all the strength in her body to push the baby out of her.
"Honey, you're doing great." Callie took hold of one of Arizona's hand and squeezed tight. She didn't feel the pain physically but it was as bad seeing the blonde's face soaked in sweat, pale and twisted. She didn't know what else to do except pressing her cheek against her wife's. "You're doing great. Just push-"
"I am pushing!" Squeezing the hand in hers as hard as she could, Arizona bawled out again. The pain in her nether regions intensified as she felt the baby's head crowned. It burned so bad. Shrieking from the top of her lungs, she gave another hard push.
"The baby's out, Arizona." Addison glanced at the new parents but her hands didn't slow down. After a moment, she held up the vernix covered little body and she smiled to her best friend. "Callie, you still want to do the honor?"
Callie had to blink a couple times to clear her vision from the tear of joy. Keeping a hand entwined with her wife's sweaty palm, she took the offered scissors from the nurse with a shaky hand.
"Make sure you cut the umbilical cord not his little thing." The OB couldn't help to tease the new mother. This joke never got old and it brought a beaming smile on her friend's face.
"Our son is perfect, Arizona." Retreating to her former position after disconnected the connection between the mother and son, Callie wrapped her arm around the limp body and kissed around the pale face. "He is beautiful."
Arizona smiled tiredly and her eyes followed the nurse who was handing her baby to the standby Peds doctor. A storm of emotion surged through her when her newborn son let out his first cry.
"Karev, make sure his airway is clear. And..." The blonde gave the order from her bed.
"I know how to do my job, boss." Alex glanced at his department head playfully. He wouldn't be surprised that if she might, she would just jump across the room doing the newborn checkup by herself.
"Just relax, Arizona. Trust the people you trained." Addison sat back down between the pregnant woman's legs after changed into another set of surgical gear. "We'll have to go again in a few minutes."
"I can't, Callie. I'm too tired." Arizona whimpered and nestled close against her wife. "I can't do this anymore. Help me."
"I am sorry. I am sorry. I am sorry. I love you. I love you." Callie held the woman tight, stroking the drench cheek while nuzzling into the other side tenderly. She would do anything for the mother of her children and it broke her heart for not being able to take the pain away. "Please, honey. Just one more time, okay. Can you do this for me? Please?"
Directing the brunette's lips to meet with hers, Arizona collected the strength from the kiss and then gave her OB a firm nod.
The delivery of the second baby was equally intense. Especially, the mother was exhausted from being in labor for 16 hours and 2 hours of pushing. It was the adrenaline rush and the maternal instincts that gave her the energy to keep going. Shorty after their son was born, his little sister came to join him in the incubator.
"You have done a great job, Arizona. Two healthy babies, twenty fingers and twenty toes." Addison took off the surgical gown and gloves after her job was done. She had had delivered a lot of babies in her career, but none of them were as exhilarating as delivering her best friend's babies. "Congratulations."
"Thanks, Addie." The brunette gave the doctor a heartfelt smile. She would have got up to pull her friend into a hug if she wasn't holding her exhausted wife. "Thanks for everything. Especially you don't deliver babies nowadays."
"Hey, being the chief doesn't mean I don't deliver anymore." Callie was right. Ever since Addison took over Webber's position coming to be the chief of surgery in Seattle Grace, the administration duty occupied most of her time. She hadn't been in the delivery room as much as before. "And I know that you wouldn't trust anybody else taking care of your wife's vagina."
"That's true." The brunette chuckled out loud. She looked at her wife, who was too tired to respond with anything more than just a tug of her lips.
"You poor thing," Addison gave the new mother a knowing smile. "I'm going to check on your babies and then have the nurse send them to your room. Before that, get some rest, okay?"
Callie couldn't choose which one was the happiest moment in her life. It would be the first time she and Arizona took Sofia home from the hospital after months of being kept in the NICU. Or their wedding at the hospital. Or right now, holding their son in her arm, smiled at her wife who had their baby girl resting against her chest. But one thing for sure, it all involved the woman that she loved more than anything.
Her smile spread wider when the two sets of grandparents passed through the door. Barbara had the biggest, widest grin on her face. She had a hard time deciding which baby she wanted to see first, finally she settled on going to her own baby.
"Oh my gosh! Look at her!" The older Robbins exclaimed quietly once her had the pink little bundle in her arms. "She is so beautiful, Arizona. She looks just like you."
"C'mon mon," Arizona laughed with joy. It was every mother's proud hearing compliments about their child, but the blonde knew how the newborns looked like. "She's just few hours old. She's all swelling and puffiness..."
"Non sense." Lucia held the baby boy in her arms and walked toward her other grandchild. She and Barbara glanced between the two babies with a matching smile. "They are the most beautiful newborn babies in the world. They are just perfect."
Callie and Arizona exchanged a smile before she went to pick up their eldest daughter who was holding abuelo's hand. Kissing the chubby face soundly, she placed the little girl sitting on the bed next to her mommy. Sofia put a hand on mommy's much smaller belly looking curious.
"Remember mama told you that your baby brother and sister were in mommy's tummy?" Callie sat behind the little girl, placing her hand over the little one. "They're not there anymore. See the babies in grandmom and abuela's arms? They have came out of mommy's tummy already."
Little brown eyes widened staring at the pink and blue bundles. The antic made the two mother chuckled.
"They can play with me now?" Sofia asked her mothers.
"No, not yet. They're still little. It will take some times before they can actually play with you." Arizona stroked her daughter's long hair tenderly. She and Callie had prepared the little girl for the new addition of their family, but it wouldn't hurt to remind her one more time. "But they'd know that you're their big sister. And they'd love you just like mama and mommy love you."
"And I'd love them too because I'm the big sister." Little head nodded with proud.
"What are their names?" Carlos asked once he was able to take his grandson from his wife's arms, and it wasn't easy.
"The one you're holding, dad." The brunette got up from the bed and stood next to her father. Looking at the babies with love, she told the parents. "He is Timothy Carl. And the girl is Phoenix Danielle Robbins-Torres."
The fathers were beyond shock, especially the colonel. He wasn't surprised that Arizona would name her son after Tim, but he didn't expect that he'd be in the mix too.
"They are going to be raised by two mothers, it would be a challenge for all of us. We want them to always remember that there are two strong and loving men be there looking after them too." Arizona answered her father's questioning eyes. And she added with a chuckle. "And Phoenix was Callie's idea. You know, the capital of Arizona the state."
"Hey, it also means phoenix the mythical bird." Walking back to her wife, Callie pecked at the pink lips with a smile. "Like our love, always arising from the ashes no matter how hard it gets."
"It's beautiful. And they are beautiful." Still grinning, Barbara couldn't take her eyes off her new grandchildren. "I don't know which one of them I like the most."
"It's terrible to choose between our grandchildren, Barbara." The colonel scolded his wife playfully. Truth to be told, he was already in love with his few hours old granddaughter's dimples.
"No grandpa, it's okay to choose." Sofia called out from the bed. Her little head tilted up saying matter-of-factly. "Mommy chooses me to love the most because I am the first. She says that I made her a parent so she loves me the biggest."
"It's true, big girl. I love you the most." Carefully pulling the little girl closer to her, Arizona placed a big kiss on the smiley face.
"I love you the most too, mommy." The little girl nestled up against her mommy. A little too rude that made the blonde flinched slightly. Callie quickly sat down on the bed pulling off their daughter subtly.
"Hey, what about me?" The brunette mother feigned upset asking her daughter.
"I love you too, mama." Little arms wrapped around her mama's neck and kissed away the frown. But she pulled back with a pout after remembering. "But... you make me eat my veggie..."
Everyone in the room laughed out aloud. Their attention was pulled away when there was a knock on the door.
"Mind if we come in?" There was Mark at the door, holding his son on his hip with Lexie next to him. "Little Marco would like to visit his future girlfriend, or boyfriend."
"Nice try, Mark. Like I'd ever let your little Sloan's little Sloan come anywhere near my children." Arizona gave the man a grimace. Well, more of a hello to the little handsome fellow that was sucking his thumb over daddy's shoulder.
"Hey, I've changed. Lexie, tell her that I've changed." The Plastic surgeon protested with a little whine, but that didn't stop him from approaching the twins. "Marco boy, say hello to your new friends."
"Cut him some slack, honey. He does have changed." Putting Sofia on her laps, Callie shifted closer to her wife.
"Yeah, it's like those 3 days in coma had clear out the bad brain cells in his head." Lexie smiled at her goofy husband interacting with their son. The fatal shooting incident was almost three years ago and they were finally able to laugh about it now. "Who would have thought that he'd say no when I told him that I wanted to have his baby right away? He insisted to wait until I finished my residency."
"And not to mention the half an hour cry marathon in my office after you told him that you were pregnant. He was so scared that he'd have a daughter." The blonde shared a laugh with the other two women. It was never not funny bringing that up.
"Hey, I've a change of heart that doesn't mean I have a change of hearing. I can still hear you women talking about me." Mark turned to glare at his friend. He had become a family man but he still had his pride. He had asked the blonde not to tell anybody about his breakdown but of course, she had to share with everyone.
"We're just happy for you, Mark." The brunette got up to kiss his friend on the cheek. And her daughter on her hip mimicked her action kissing the little boy. That made all the adults in the room went aww...
"You know what, son?" The man ducked to look at his son with a mischievous smile. "Maybe Sofia is the one for you."
'Oh, cut it out. Sof is just being a great sister." Callie rolled her eyes on the way back to her wife. "Speaking of, have you seen Joe?"
"Ya, I saw him in the elevator. He's going to meet up with Karev and..." Mark cheered when he saw the big guy entering the room. "Hey, here he is."
Joe showed up with a cake box in his hand, and Alex behind him carrying a kids table that he took from the daycare. And April was leading a few kids following them like a row of ducklings. Seeing her friends, Sofia slid down her mother's laps and went to join Zola, Henry and the couple of her good friends from the daycare.
Putting the cake box on the table by the foot of the bed, the big guy greeted the new mothers with a kiss on the cheek before went to the babies.
"Oh my goodness, they are beautiful." Joe exclaimed over the grandmother's heads with a hand over his chest. "Just like their mothers."
"Okay, guys. You've got to stop saying that they look like the mother." Callie looked around the visitors with a bright smile. "They're all puffy right now, and you are saying..."
"Are you saying I'm puffy?" Arizona squinted at her wife.
"No! That's why I told them not to because you're not." The brunette looked into the blue eyes saying sincerely. "You are so, so beautiful."
'I'm so happy for you, Cal. And Arizona." Joe took a chair sitting next to his best friend. He didn't even bother to try to snatch the babies from the arms of the grandmothers. That would be an impossible job. "Congrats."
"Thanks, Joe. And thanks for bring the cake." Callie patted her long time friend on the knee with a thankful smile. "So, how is Walter and Maddy? Are they settling in okay?"
"They are great. They love San Francisco. Maddy made it in the soccer team. And Walter got a job in the nursing home, so he can spend more time with his mother in there." Talking about his family brought a soft smile on the man's face. And he sighed whilst taking the tan hand in his. "But Callie, I'm really sorry that I just took off like that. But Walter's mother is sick and..."
"Hey, don't worry about it, okay? I've told you, family is more important than anything. Of course it's sad that I don't get to see you everyday now, but Walter needs you. You've already done a lot for me over the years, Joe." The brunette pulled the big man in for a tight embrace. She said burying her face into the man's neck. "I love you like a brother that I never had. And I'm happy for you too."
"Okay guys, who's really for some cakes?" Alex asked while taking the cake out of the box, and all kids jumping up and down with a cheer.
"Hey hey, I've told you to keep it quiet in here. Babies are sleeping." April tried her best to keep the tiny humans under control, with some helps from Lexie. "C'mon, let's sit on the floor around the table."
Alex put the cake in the center of the kids table, and Lexie picked up a party hat putting it on the head of the little girl who was wearing the biggest smile on her face.
"Best big sister?" Carlos chuckled seeing what was written on top on the cake.
"Well, today's the birthday of Timothy and Phoenix, but also the day that Sofia became the big sister. It calls for a celebration." Arizona watched the children with a dimpled smile. It was another idea from Callie and from the grin on their daughter's face, it was a terrific idea.
Callie sat back down next to her wife. Wrapping an arm around the woman and placed a tender kiss on the blonde's temple, she took in the room with a smile.
Sofia was sitting between Zola and Henry, two of her best friends, giggling between putting forkful and forkful of her favorite chocolate cake into her little mouth. Mark was on the floor with his son on his laps, tenderly feeding the boy the sweet treat when Lexie was on the other side holding a handkerchief ready to clean up the chubby face at anytime. The grandparents finally handed over one of the babies to Joe and they went laughing at the wry expressions on the tiny faces. And April was running around taking pictures of everyone, as always.
Callie came to here during the darkest time of her life. She lost the woman that she loved, and married to the wrong man in the midst of desperation. She fled away time and time again when the situation went bad and never looked back. When the flight from LA to Seattle touched down, she expected nothing from the strange city and not in a million years that she would have known that the light would shed on her head again. Now, she had a family of her own, she had a career that she thought it was long gone, and she had mended the relationship with her parents. Most importantly, she had found love again.
Arizona was the light.
"Thanks for loving me." Entwined her hand with the blonde's, Callie gazed into the blue eyes. It was a joyous moment and she didn't want to ruin it with tears, but the damn tears were just threatened to spring from her eyes.
"Thanks for loving me back." Arizona smiled to her wife before bringing her lips to the plump ones that she had kissed for thousands times. It was a soft and tender kiss. It was the kiss that simply saying I love you.
And once again, April captured the moment and the picture had become one of their favorite photos that the couple framed and placed in their living room.
Pushing the twin stroller through the entrance of the Horizon, Arizona found the mother of her children was standing in the middle of the empty place with hands on her hips.
"Hello, we're here to pick up mama." The blonde called out softly. And Callie turned around instantly, with a mega smile on her face.
"Hello." The brunette pecked at her wife's lips then bent down to kiss their babies. "I'm sorry. I should have gone to pick you up. How is the checkup?"
"They are the healthiest 3 months old babies." Arizona smiled at their twins. The tiny human were lying in their strollers playing with their little fingers contently. "You got everything done it here?"
"Yeah." Callie couldn't hold back a sigh. She looked around the place one more time before heading toward the bar top. "Just signed the papers. The lawyer was gone like 15 minutes ago."
"You don't have to sell this place, you know." Following her wife, Arizona sat down on one of the barstool. "This place means a lot to you."
"Yeah." Callie leaned against the bar top. She pointed to the side. "There was the place that I saw you the first time, standing behind Mark. And here, you helped me out bartending the second time we met."
"And I poured the best beer." Arizona propped her head up by the elbow against the bar top. That was a fun night.
"Far from it." The brunette leaned forward to kiss the woman over the bar top. "And I've kissed you so many times like this."
"See? It holds so many memories in here." Still propping her head up, the blonde gave her wife a sad smile. "I know that Joe is gone, but you can hire someone to manage the pub. You don't have to sell it."
"It wouldn't be the same, Arizona. Joe and I started this pub together." Callie ran her hand along the wooden surface. "It wouldn't be the same without him. Besides, we don't live upstairs anymore, there's no point of keeping it."
"But... you love this place." Arizona pursed her lips to a pout. They did spend much less time in the pub ever since she was pregnant and moved into a big house. Still, it was sad to see this place closed down.
"Here is where I started in Seattle. I love it because it led me to you, Arizona." Walking around the bar top, the brunette stood in front of her wife. "My fellowship starts in a month. It's time to move on from the past. I'd rather spend more with our children in our backyard than serving drinks to the drunks on my free time. "
"If you're sure..." The blonde put her hands on Callie's hips, tilting her head staring at the brown eyes.
"Would you mind if I say that I'm surer than the time I said I do?" Putting her hands over the soft ones on her hips, Callie asked with a naughty smile.
"I probably would." It brought a belly laugh from the blonde mother.
"C'mon, let's get out of here. We have to pick up Sofia from your parents. She'd be mad if we're late for Zola's birthday party." Laughing along, Callie pulled her wife up on her feet. "I wonder where she learns that from."
"Punctuality is a good quality." Arizona walked passed the brunette toward their twin children. She threw the woman a grimace over her shoulder. "And she learns that from my dad."
Callie just smiled. She let the blonde pushed the stroller out first, then she took a last look of the place that she once called home.
"Bye." She said in a whisper, and then closed the door behind her.
- the end -
