Hey everyone! I just wanted to say sorry it took me so long to update, it was my last week of school and finals! I will be able to update more frequently now. I also wanted to say thank you all so much for the reviews/follows/favorites they mean a lot!
One quick thing before we start someone asked how old Callie and Arizona are and I have them in their second year of med school so around 24
Enjoy!
Chapter 3:
"Oh good you two have already met! Arizona dear, Callie is going to be the other TA for my class. You two will work together due to the fact my class is so large this semester."
All I can do is stand there with my mouth wide open, my mind reeling with the worst possibilities in this scenario. I am struck with a wave of pure panic thinking this is it; my mother is going to figure out my secret.
"Sweetheart close your mouth will you." My mother is says giving me the strangest look and adds, "How do you two know each other?"
With that I panic even more and look at Calliope. She can read the look of terror in my eyes.
"We met through a mutual friend Dr. Cooper, just the other night actually."
I immediately relax and thank god for Callie she is so calm.
"What friend? Arizona you've only been here a day." My mother questions, always having to be so damn nosy.
"Just Shannan, Mom." I can feel my cheeks getting redder; I have never been the greatest liar. I just want to get out of here.
She seems to accept it and move on though. I glance over at Callie and she looks stunning, she is dressed in a simple green V-neck and black skinny jeans that make her ass look amazing. Shit I realize I haven't been paying attention to anything my mother is saying so I divert my attention back to her instructions on her class.
"So you two will need to come to all the lecture hours and together you will run all the lab sections. Do you think you will be able to handle that?"
"Yes" Callie and I answer together.
"Good, I need to run to a meeting now, but here is the class list and the first lab set for this Wednesday please review all of these things and be set for then. See you tomorrow at 10 sharp."
My mother hands us a few stacks of paper and we all walk out of her office and she heads in the opposite direction of us. Callie and I start to walk towards the exit of the building not saying anything. Before I realize what is happening I am being pushed into an empty room.
"Calliope, what are you do—"
I can't even finish before her lips crash into mine. "Mmmm, I have wanted to do this since the second you walked in the room."
I kiss her back just as hard and pull her into me. Her kisses are intoxicating; I could spend all day kissing Calliope. Then I realize where I am and pull away.
"Wait.. wait Callie I can't do this.."
"What you can't kiss me?" She raises an eyebrow at me
"No, well yes but.. We can't do this.. My mom doesn't know I'm gay…"
"Yeah wait, so Dr. Cooper is your Mom? How does that even work with your different last names?"
"She kept her maiden name and my brother, Tim, and I have our fathers last name. She is a bit of a control freak and has always expected we will become doctors and she didn't want her last names to interfere with our success or give us any advantages."
"Wow"
"Yeah… she is something else. But that is why I can't do this with you because she cannot find out about me"
"Hey, calm down Arizona. She doesn't have to find out." She moves to tuck a loose strand of hair behind my ear.
I give her a small smile. "She will though, because I won't be able to keep my eyes off of you. We have to be in the same room with her for three hours, three times a week, she will figure it out." She notices I am fidgeting with my fingers out of nervous habit and she takes them in hers.
"Listen to me Arizona, your mother will never find out if you don't want her to. We can control ourselves when she is around. I get it, being scared for her to find out, I really do and I will understand if you don't want to see me again but I like you and want to keep being able to do this." She leans in and kisses me
"Mmm" Callie pulls away and I open my eyes "I want that too Calliope. I am sorry I am freaking out right now, it's just I am not ready for her to know. And I like you too."
She breaks out her beautiful megawatt smile. "Good and it's okay you're cute when you get all flustered like that."
"Oh am I?" I smirk at her
"Yes" she replies with a small laugh
"Well I'm not cute, I am hot!" I give my best fake pout
Callie leans in so close to my ear I can feel her breath on me, "Believe me I know, I am very familiar with how hot you are. And gorgeous. And sexy."
I shiver at her words. I am so turned on by her. Fuck I didn't even know it was possible to be this aroused.
Finally I manage to speak although my voice shakes, "Th..thanks" I can't take being so close to her and to not be touching her so I pull her in by the waist so our bodies touch. She moans at the unexpected contact. Now it is my turn and I lean in and whisper, "So tomorrow when I can't touch you or look at you just know this is what you do to me by just being in the same room as me." I boldly grab her hand and shove it down my pants and she comes in contact to where all my body's moisture has gathered and gasps.
"Yes Calliope, that is all for you." I say but it is morphed into half moan half clear speaking because her hand being on me is driving me insane. But I continue to speak, "I think it's time we go now"
She detangles herself from me and still has yet to say anything. But when I look her in the eyes I see pure lust there. "We may not be able to do that in class tomorrow but what would you say about tonight you come over to my place and I'll cook you dinner." She asks
I suddenly get a little nervous. "Like.. a date?"
She laughs a bit, and wow even her laugh is the sexiest laugh I have ever witnessed. "Yes Arizona, exactly like a date."
"I'd really like that" I blush a bit
"Great, I'll see you at seven then?"
"See you then Calliope."
I walk in my apartment and lean against my door and slide to the floor. I can't believe I am going on a date with Calliope Torres. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on and she wants to cook me dinner. She wants to see me again after my crazy freak out about my mother. I mean why would she want to see my after that, I know I would want to get as far away from my craziness as possible. But she asked me out on a date. How am I going to survive this class with my mother hovering over me all the time trying to pry into my life. Uh! This is going to be hell…
I start to look over the material my mother gave us for the lab on Wednesday and thankfully I remember it all very well. It's pretty simple stuff just anatomical structure review basically. I start to then look over her syllabus but my mind keeps drifting off to my date with Callie in a few hours. I decide to give up on trying to focus and pull my phone out and dial exactly who I need to talk to right now.
"Hey Zona, what's up?"
"Hey Shannan, so I have to tell you something.."
"Okay, spill"
"Actually, where are you? Do you want to come over for a bit?"
"Sure I'll be there in five!"
Five minutes later my cousin Shannan busts through my door with a shit-eating grin on her face.
"Soooo Zona.. how was your night out? Is that what you have to tell me about? Did you meet someone? Was she hot? Did you hookup?"
My face flushes with her interrogation
"OH MY GOD YOU TOTALLY DID IT TELL ME EVERYTHING!"
"Well, yes as a matter of fact I did happen to meet someone while I was out last night."
"I knew it, so go ahead tell me more!"
"Okay, okay. So her name is Callie and I met her at the bar, she asked me to dance an—"
"Wait! You danced?!" She looks amused knowing the extent of my dancing abilities.
"Yes, gosh Shan let me talk"
"Okay sorry"
"So we danced and then we uhm well we kissed and you know so then she took me back to her place."
She has the biggest smile on her face. She has always been such a gossip. "Oh my god no way! That's awesome Arizona! Was she hot?"
"Beyond. I don't know how she could possibly be into me"
"Oh come on give yourself some credit you're fucking hot, anyone would be crazy to not want you!"
"Yeah well and she made me breakfast this morning.."
"Hold up that's all you're going to tell me is that you went back to her place and in the morning she made you breakfast come on Zona."
"Oh sorry, god she had insane skills she did this thing when she stuck her tongue in—"
"WOAH! I do not need to know that scratch it stop, stop, stop, too much detail."
I chuckle.
"Wait so you did sleep with her though that's all I want to know."
I smile wide. "Yes"
"YAY! I am so happy for you!" She envelops me in a tight hug
"Thanks Shan, well anyways.." I did not want to get to this part of the story, she is going to flip out, "This morning I had that meeting with my mom you know."
"Yeah"
"Well I was running late because, well never mind that but anyways but when I finally got there I opened her door and Callie was standing in her office with her."
"WHAT! Why was she there?!"
"Because we are Co-TA's in my mothers class"
"No fucking way.."
"Yes and I freaked out a bit after we left and we were alone, but Callie is so amazing and she wants to see me still and is okay with just acting cool around Mom. She even asked me on a date tonight, she is cooking me dinner at her place."
"Holy fuck, this is awesome! You're going to be like secret lovers that is so HOT!"
"No, it is going to suck because I can not let my mom find out and it is going to be hard to lie to her three hours three days a week. And that's not even including meetings that we will have to have with her."
"Oh Zona why don't you just tell your mom, don't you think it's time?" she approaches carefully
"No Shannan. I am not ready to tell her." I avert my gaze from her she knows how hard this has been for me. I know she is just trying to help but I can't do it just not yet.
"I'm sorry I am not trying to push you I just think it would be a weight off your shoulders."
"I know, it's okay. Sorry I am not mad at you, I just I don't know, I am not ready yet but I think I want to soon. Okay?"
"Fine by me, I'll be by your side no matter what Arizona."
"Thanks Shan" I smile, it's nice to know I'll always have her around.
She pats my shoulder and smiles back. "Come on lets go find you something hot to wear on your date." She winks and walks towards my room.
It is now 6:55 and I am standing outside of Calliope's door. Shannan helped me pick out my tight dark wash skinny jeans with my black high heel boots and a white tank top that shows just enough cleavage, and my hair down in waves. I shake away my nerves and take a deep breath in and out and knock on the door.
I hear rustling around and then a second later the door opens and my mouth goes completely dry when I see Callie, she is wearing a tight black skirt that hugs her curves perfectly and has on a red top that gives me a perfect view of her cleavage. Her hair is in a fishtail braid off to the side and she has red lipstick on to match her shirt. A minute passes and I realize I am still standing in the door. I look up at her and can see she is giving me the same look up and down. I feel my face flush and laugh.
"Wow, Arizona, you look… beautiful."
"Thank you Calliope, you look amazing"
"Thanks, sorry come in come in."
I walk into her apartment and see that there is a candle lit in the middle of the table and the lights are dimmed.
"Dinner is almost ready, do you want some wine?"
"Yes that'd be great, it smells amazing Callie."
I watch her move around the kitchen like she a chef in a five star restaurant. She is sexy beyond belief. As she turns towards the fridge I can't help but check out her ass. It looks so good in that skirt.
"White or red?"
"White is fine"
She pours me a glass and I stand watching her finish from the table. She brings over the plates and pulls out my chair for me.
"Thank you"
"Of course" she stands next to me and I look up at her, she cups my cheek with her hand and leans in for a quick kiss.
About an hour passes and the conversation is flowing so naturally, I feel like I have known Callie my whole life. I just feel so comfortable with her. We decide to get up to move to the couch.
"Dinner was great Calliope"
"I'm glad you liked it, would you like more wine?"
"I'd love some, thank you"
She brings me my refilled glass and we are now half way through our second bottle. So I am feeling decently tipsy at this point. When Callie joins me on the couch she sits directly next to me and she is looking at me like no one has ever before.
"You're such a breath of fresh air Arizona"
"I feel the same exact way about you." I tell her honestly. I never have clicked with anyone like this before; it is like we have known each other forever.
Conversation flowed well between us for many more refills of wine. Callie talked to me about her family and how when she came out to them they were not the most accepting of it but with time they came around and she is still very close with her parents and sister. It makes me so happy to hear that because it honestly gives me hope for my own family.
"How come you transferred from Hopkins?" Callie looks at me curiously
"Well, my first year at Hopkins was great. I really liked it there and it was where all my high school friends went but something still felt missing. I just felt like I needed a change. So I decided to transfer here. My cousin Shannan, our so-called mutual friend as I told my mother, has been my best friend since I was little so that is also a plus. I don't really know how to describe it, I miss my friends a lot but this just feels like the right move."
I look up and Callie is smiling at me so sweetly and with such understanding. And I feel myself melt under her gaze. "I get it, completely."
I smile so big it hurts my face. "I can't believe you're real." Shit did I actually just say that out loud? Oh my god, I can't believe I just said that to her.
She can obviously see my panic from letting her inside my thoughts and she chuckles. "You're adorable."
I blush and she reaches over and places her hand on my thigh. At her touch all the nerve endings on my body ignite. I can read in her eyes that she feels it too.
"Would you like to stay the night?" she looks nervously
"Calliope, don't you think you're being a bit presumptuous that you can get me into bed on the first date?" I give her mock look of shock
"I..no.. I mean.. that's uh.. not what I meant.. just.. you've had a lot to drink.. and you just moved here and I don't want you to have to—"
I laugh and lean in and grab her face and kiss her. I pull away just inches from her face and look into her beautiful brown orbs. "Calliope, I am only joking" kiss. "I want to stay." Kiss.
"Really?"
"Oh yes"
This time she pulls me in by the neck for a passionate kiss. I swipe my tongue over her bottom lip seeking entrance, which she allows immediately. Our tongues slowly and sensual dance together exploring each other's mouths. This is different than any other time we have kissed this means more. After a few minutes of making out like teenagers on the couch Callie's hand snakes up my shirt and she grabs my breast. I let out a soft whimper. I want her so bad so I tell her exactly what I want.
"How about you take me to bed Calliope?"
