Hey dearest readers! Here's another chapter for your enjoyment. So sorry for updating so late but I'm a busy girl… I have some time off now though, so I hope I can update sooner. I really appreciated all the date ideas you gave me in the comments! I used some of them in this chapter, so you'll read what I chose for our girls to do on their first official date :) You can keep date ideas coming for next chapters. Other suggestions and requests considering the storyline are always welcome. Have fun! Oh by the way, I kinda need a beta to help me with my English, so if there's any British/American peeps out here: send me a message (or a tweet, {at}capmirezcalzona)!

P.S. I'm thinking about making this an interactive fanfic. You'll be able to vote on one of a few suggestions I make at the end of each chapter. For example, I will ask you whether you want our ladies to get dirty or not, to do something badass/dangerous or to play it safe, to have a movie date or a dinner date… The proposition with the most votes wins. This way, you guys can sort of decide on how the story will unfold! How about that?

CHAPTER 6

Ten to two. Callie's eyes flickered from the clock on the wall – which was ticking annoyingly loud – to the door. I double checked for bugs, right? Suddenly, she didn't feel so sure anymore. Be confident. Addison could be here any minute now. Callie was in the conference room on the second floor. She had access to this room with her employee card, which, as crossed her mind now, was not the most ideal situation. Any other employee could come in. Addison would have to find a smart solution for that, she figured. Five to two. Should she check the hallway? Slowly, she walked towards the door. She pushed the handle down excruciatingly slow, then figured it probably looked even more suspicious than doing it the usual way and yanked the door open. She checked the left side of the corridor. Empty. Then she turned her head to the righ…- What? That was movement, she was positive. If she wasn't mistaken… - could it be? - there was a flash of blonde hair disappearing behind a corner.

'Callie!' A hushed voice made her jump and look around in shock.

'Damn it Addison! You scared the shit out of me!'

'Sorry, I was just wondering what the hell you were doing, spying around empty hallways. It looks suspicious as fuck.'

'Language, Addy', Callie teased.

'I could say the same to you, Cal'.

They grinned, entered the conference room and closed the door.

'How are we going to make sure no one comes in and catches us? Any genius ideas?' Callie asked.

Addy looked at her dumbfounded before grabbing a chair and putting it under the door, preventing the handle from being pushed down.

'Don't tell me you didn't think of that yourself.'

'Genius…' Callie mumbled. She decided to come to terms right away.

'Addy, I'm kinda lost here. I need to get into that super secret room. To get into the room, I need some sort of key. The key is God knows where and the only people who are trusted to guard it, are the ones working on the long flights. It's just that I've barely gotten the hang of the whole stewardess thing and now I need to be a spy on top of it, while flying in a monstrously big aircraft floating about 6 miles above the ground, in a skirt that is both too tight and too short, surrounded by hundreds of pe-…'

'Ok, ok, I get it,' Addison interrupted her. She couldn't suppress a grin. 'You're pretty stressed out, aren't ya?'

'This is not funny! I need to get my job done or I'll be fired!'

'Oh come on, you won't be fired. You're way too important to our company and our boss knows it. The worst thing he can do is put you on all the crappy missions for the next ten years to come.'

'I hate you.'

'No you don't. You love me. And you'll love me even more in a few seconds.' Addison suddenly seemed immensely happy with herself.

Callie raised one eyebrow skeptically. 'You sound confident.'

'I am. I've got Mark for you,' Addison said. The smile on her face was damn close to arrogant.

Callie was silent for a few seconds. Her eyes widened slightly, an incredulous look on her face. 'Mark will be here to help me? Are you serious?'

'Yup. CharmGirl and the Twisted Sisters are working on another case, but Mark's got some spare time and is willing to spend it with you. I think he's still hoping he can get lucky.' Addison sniggered, which earned her a playful shove from Callie.

'We haven't had sex in over six months, he knows we are done with that.'

'Yeah, he really sounded like he agreed on that,' Addison replied in the most sarcastic tone of voice known to mankind.

'Shut up,' Callie said, but she was trying hard not to show the amusement on her face.

'I bet you're picturing him naked right now,' Addison mused.

'Ew! Hell no!' She wasn't gonna tell Addy that she'd been picturing a certain woman naked for the better part of the past 24 hours.

'Liar, liar, pants on fire. Your face is as red as my cherry chapstick!'

'Is not'

'Is too!'

Callie buried her face in her hands, embarrassed.

'God, you look like a teenager. What are you not telling me, Cal? Does it have to do with the "personal" stuff that slowed down your spy work?'

Callie removed her hands from her face and sighed. 'I don't wanna talk about it. It's nothing.'

'Yeah, I can see it doesn't affect you at all.'

'Can you stop being sarcastic for once? Can we please talk about the case? You need to find me someone trustworthy, someone who is willing to betray its own company, someone who can be my partner in crime. Someone from Seattle Shuttle.' Callie had pulled herself together at last and was determined to focus on what was important: getting her hands on the notorious 'key'.

Addison decided she would drop the "personal" subject. For now. 'Yes, I figured you would need an insider. I looked into it and I have some candidates. For a start, there's this woman named Erica Hahn, she -'

'No, no, no, no, not her please. I uh… know her.'

'You know her? That's amazing, you might already have her trust then! We have to take advantage of this.'

'You don't understand. I really can't work with her. She's… I don't know, we didn't really uh… have a connection.'

'It's not about being friends here, Callie. This is nothing but a business proposition.'

'I am aware of that, but -'

'But what? What the hell Torres, why are you being so emotional all of a sudden? You've never been like this, ever, so if you don't -'

'I SLEPT WITH HER. I SLEPT WITH HER, OK? SO I CAN'T WORK WITH HER!'

Addison froze. Her facial expression changed from anger to one of surprise. 'You slept with a woman?'

'I did.'

A cheeky smile crept over Addison's face. 'How was it?'

'Addison!'

'What? You can tell your best friend about your lady-loving activities.'

'Addy, you're impossible! Not now! Maybe later this week, over drinks.'

'Looking forward to it,' Addison winked. 'Was it that bad though?'

Callie gave her an 'I-will-kill-you-slowly'-look.

'Ok, so not Erica. Well this other woman, Teddy Altman, is high on my list but she's on vacation so she's unavailable.'

'Yeah I know her, she's great. She let me sleep over in her apartment a few days ago. Working with her would be -'

'I think I mentioned the word unavailable?'

'Yeah, sorry.'

'Moving on. Next on my list is…' Addison reached into her jeans pocket and pulled out a small paper. 'Alex Karev. He seems pretty badass, saved a kid during a flight last week. Poor little girl choked on a piece of chicken, he did the Heinrich maneuver. This would never happen to my kids, I'd never even allow them to eat those gross airplane sandwiches.'

'You don't have any kids,' Callie commented dryly.

'I know, I mean if I ever find a nice guy, which is never going to happen by the way, and we have mind-blowingly amazing sex, which is also never going to happen, and we have kids - well I don't even know whether I'm able to have kids but if I ever get them - I'd never let them eat…' Addison saw the look on Callie's face and the sound of her voice died away slowly. 'Sorry, too much information.'

Callie chose to ignore that comment. 'So Alex is allegeable. Any others on your list?'

'There's April Kepner, but she's a little bit of a dork. Seems to be a strong supporter of 'keeping to the rules'. You'd have a hard time getting her on board of our plan – we are basically breaking every rule in the book. Then there's Derek and Amelia Shepherd; they are siblings, both pilots. They might be protectors of the key because they are in close contact with some board members, so having them on your team is kinda essential. At least make sure you act normal around them, one misstep in their presence and you could ruin the whole mission.'

'Copy that.' Callie swallowed. This was going to be more difficult than she thought.

'Oh, there's one last name on my list. Lexie Grey, she seems to be very compliant when you show her you have more authority than she does. I told her I was a board member and asked her to get me coffee; one minute later she handed me a cup of hot latte macchiato.'

Callie stared at her friend in disbelief. 'That's just wrong. That sounds like something Cristina would do.'

'When I need information, I use all my abilities.' Addison smiled slyly. 'And Cristina is a genius, even though she's socially retarded. We lie for a living, Cal. It's about time you got used to that.'

On the other side of the conference room door, Arizona was standing, glued to the spot. She had overheard everything. These two women were trying to get their hands on the key by turning loyal employees into temporary spies. She knew she had to report this. It was the only right thing to do. That Addison woman seemed to have done some research on her colleagues and Callie would use them shamelessly to get what she wanted. However, this whole thing also sounded kinda badass and exciting. It's not like they're going to hijack a plane or murder innocent people. Arizona pictured Callie in a tight black suit, creeping over the wing of an airplane in the dead of night. H-O-T. At that moment, Arizona realized she would give anything to join these two women. Acting had always been one of her qualities. Going undercover, fooling her boss, impressing Callie, getting out of the everyday rut… Unfortunately, she didn't seem to be on Addison's list. Why not? Did she seem like a girl who would blab? Didn't she seem bold enough?

Arizona didn't have time to let her thoughts go any further, because she heard footsteps inside the room and they seemed to get louder with each step. She ran, turned the nearest corner and ducked behind a coffee cart. She heard the sound of a door being opened, then the footsteps continued. Damn it, they are walking in my direction.

As fate would have it, they stopped right at the coffee cart. Callie had spotted it and offered Addison a cup. Arizona was propped up against the side of the cart, doing her best to make herself as small as possible. One sound, one movement, and she'd be caught in a very painful predicament. Her heart was beating so loudly she was afraid they would hear it. Go away.

Callie and Addison didn't seem to be in a hurry though.

'Mark will get here tomorrow,' Addison said. 'We'll discuss the more detailed stuff over the phone. Use our protected line. And we are definitely meeting up for drinks soon, I wanna hear all the dirty little details on your Erica story.'

'You won't get those.'

'I will, after 4 tequila shots.' Her mouth curved into a mean smile.

'You are-'

But they never found out what Addison was exactly, as Callie's phone was buzzing loudly. The sound startled Arizona, who hit her head against the side of the cart. Luckily, the other two women were too focused on the phone to notice the subtle movement of the coffee cart.

'One sec,' she mumbled to Addison, accepting the call. 'Lexie! Yeah sorry, I'm kinda in the middle of something. It was great seeing you this morning.' There was a short pause. 'Tomorrow, maybe? I already have plans tonight. I'll call you. Bye!'

She tucked her phone in her back pocket.

Addison stared at her open-mouthed. 'God, it's only your third week here and you're already dating several employees? Female employees?'

'Am not!'

'Are too!'

Callie rolled her eyes. 'I'll walk you to the main hall, Addy.'

They stalked off, coffee cups in their hands. Arizona let out the breath she'd been holding, her heart pounding in her ears loudly. Maybe Addison is right. I'm definitely not bold enough for this. She allowed herself some time to recover. The fear in her brain was soon replaced by confusion. Was Callie dating other people? Was this whole thing just a game to her? Would she use Arizona too and dump her when her mission here was completed? Arizona was left with even more questions now than she had before her eavesdropping session. Mission failed.

It was hours later when Arizona woke with a start. She had been lying on the couch in their employee chill-out room. The room had been designed about a year ago, to give Seattle Shuttle employees a space to relax and chat in between flights. It contained several couches, beanbags, vending machines and even a pool table. Arizona checked her phone and noticed she had an unread message.

Hey beautiful, make sure you're ready at 8pm, I'll pick you up at your place! Wear something you can move freely in ;)

- Callie

Oh God. Move freely? What the hell were they going to do tonight? Arizona checked the time; 6pm. She had two hours to get home, make some dinner and find a proper outfit for her date. In all honesty, she didn't even know whether she still wanted the date after everything she'd heard. Should she confront her about the spy stuff? And was Callie really dating other people as well? To be quite frank, Arizona felt slightly ashamed of herself. Was she actually being jealous? She only met this woman yesterday and yet she had to admit the strongest feeling she had – beside confusion – was envy. She used to be a strong, confident woman, jealous wasn't even in her dictionary. This brunette had stepped into her life and turned it upside down with just one look, one smile, one kiss. She felt like the hole in her heart - the one that had been present ever since Tim died - was already filled up a tiny bit.

I am in too deep, my heart is too vulnerable. It scares the hell out of me.

Callie parked her silvery-black Audi in front of Arizona's apartment building and stepped onto the sidewalk. She ran her hands through her hair, messing it up on purpose. She was wearing ripped jeans and an off-shoulder top. Casual and pretty comfy but still giving off some sexy vibes. She rang the doorbell and waited. About five seconds later, Arizona's voice sounded through the intercom. 'I'm almost ready, I'll be right down!'

'Take your time,' Callie responded, leaning against the wall next to the door.

Two minutes later, the front door was opened and out came Arizona, wearing skinny jeans and a simple but fairly tight shirt, showing off her curves but leaving enough to the imagination. Callie had secretly hoped the blonde would have worn something a little less revealing – she was bound to be caught staring at that fine cleavage more than once this evening. Fortunately, she learned she wouldn't be the only one staring, as she saw Arizona's eyes move from her bare shoulder to her thigh, where part of her tanned skin showed though the ripped jeans. Callie couldn't suppress a grin when Arizona swallowed visibly. 'You look, uh… great,' she managed to say. More like sexy, hot, gorgeous, desirable, lubricious… – oh my God, did I really just think that?

'Likewise,' Arizona replied, her face flushing slightly because she knew she'd been caught ogling her date. She decided she didn't really care. Callie led her to the car and opened the door for the blonde. She convinced herself she was just being a gentlewoman, but the main reason for doing it was so she could check out Arizona's ass. So much for good manners.

She seated herself behind the wheel and started the engine. 'Buckle up!'

As the stylish car turned the first corner, Arizona stole a sideways glance at her date. 'Where are you taking me?' she asked curiously.

'Wait and see, Miss Nosy. This is what they call a "surprise".'

'I don't like surprises,' the blonde replied.

'Well then it's about time you start liking them because I happen to be full of surprises.'

I'm aware of that, Callie, I think I know more about you than you'd want me to.

Arizona kept secretly watching Callie occasionally as she drove them to their unknown destination. At one point, she brought her hand to Callie's thigh, softly trailing a finger over the bare skin. She felt Callie go rigid at her touch and she loved that she could have that effect on her. 'You know your jeans are all ripped, right? Didn't your parents tell you not to wear damaged clothing to a date?' she teased.

'Why, don't you like it?' Callie rebutted.

'I think you would look even better without it.'

This sexual comment had Callie on edge within a nanosecond. Arizona saw her shifting uncomfortably in her seat and grinned, giving herself a mental pat on the back.

'Please remove that terribly smug look from your face,' Callie said wryly.

'I don't know what you're talking about,' Arizona replied innocently.

'Yes you do. You soooo do.' Callie pinched Arizona's hand – which was still teasing her thigh – and intertwined their fingers.

They just played with each other's hands the next few minutes, without talking much, but it felt comfortable. They listened to the radio and hummed to Sam Hunt's newest hit, Take Your Time.

'Do you think he's hot?' Arizona asked.

'Who?'

'Sam Hunt.'

'He's good-looking, I guess,' Callie replied.

'You're bisexual, right?' Arizona asked.

Callie raised an eyebrow. 'How did you know?'

Because I've been eavesdropping on your talk with Addison and you mentioned you had sex with a guy.

'Just a guess.' Arizona lied, trying to look as guiltless as possible.

'Yeah I've only had relationships with men until now. Dating women is new for me, but that doesn't mean I'm experimenting or anything. I'm serious about this.'

'You don't have to defend yourself, it's fine.'

'Have you ever been with a guy?' Callie asked in an attempt to backfire the question.

'Nope. I'm all for the boobies.' Arizona laughed.

'Some men have boobs too,' Callie joked.

'Callie!' Arizona squeezed her date's hand. 'You know what I mean.'

Callie just grinned and focused on the road again.

About 5 minutes later, Callie parked the car in front of a large building. "Seattle Entertainment Club" was spread across the entire length of the building in huge red neon letters.

Arizona was still in the dark about what they were going to do. Callie led her through the entrance doors to a LED illuminated counter in the main hall. It seemed to change color every 5 seconds, which delighted Arizona.

'Good evening, I have a reservation at 8:30,' Callie smiled at the girl behind the counter.

'Let's see…' the girl checked her computer screen. 'You're Callie? Laser tag, two people?'

'That's right.'

'Follow me please.' She led them to a small, dark room where two people were already suited up. 'You will be teamed up with another couple, you're team green. You can put on one of these,' she handed them black vests with an infrared-sensitive target and green lights. 'Instructions will be given to you on that flat panel display over there, the video will start in a minute.'

'Thanks!' Callie said and the girl left the room.

They greeted the other couple and put on their vests. Callie quickly created a messy ponytail, practically making Arizona drool.

'Turn around,' Callie ordered.

'Wh- what?' Arizona looked at her open-mouthed, then obeyed.

Callie grabbed a spare hair tie from her pocket and gently started combing through blonde hair. Arizona reveled in the feeling of Callie's hands softly massaging her scalp. She wanted to groan and turn around to kiss her hot date, but the other couple would have no teammates then, since she knew she wouldn't be able to stop once those full lips were on hers. I'm addicted to you.

Callie tried to draw this moment out as long as possible. Arizona clearly seemed to like it and Callie definitely liked it. She wanted nothing more than to pull harder, push the blonde against the wall and have her way with her. Maybe in a few minutes, when we're alone in the dark…

Callie didn't have time to fantasize any longer, because the instruction video started. She quickly finished Arizona's ponytail and turned her attention to the screen.

The rules were mentioned quickly – no running and the vest will light up red when you've been hit – and then the goal of the game became clear. According to the video, their opponents – another 4-headed team with purple lights instead of green – were in another room on the other side of the playing field. Both teams had a flag to protect, which meant the goal was to get your hands on the other team's flag. When you're hit 5 times, you're out. There would be two rounds.

'Easy enough,' Callie said. 'You guys wanna protect our flag?' she pointed at the other couple. 'We'll try to capture their flag. We can switch for the next game.'

'Sure,' the guy said. The girl just shrugged.

Arizona was surprised by Callie's sudden urge to be team captain, but didn't argue with her.

A loud buzzer sounded and a door to their left was opened. The foursome walked down a staircase, into an enormous room with numerous walls and obstacles. It looked like a huge maze – in the dark. The walls were literally everywhere and were lined with colored LED lights to make sure the players were able to see where they were walking. They quickly spotted their flag, a few yards to their right.

Callie immediately took the lead again. Kinda sexy. 'Ok, so you two can stay near the flag in case a member of the other team comes and tries to steal it. The other team's flag is obviously located somewhere on the other side of the maze, so we will try to move there.' Callie turned to Arizona. 'Remember, if you're shot you have to return to our own flag to reactivate your gun.'

'I know, Callie, I've heard the rules.' And she doesn't know I've had a fair amount of practice with guns and dodging bullets...

Callie's obvious fanaticism amused Arizona. She couldn't wait to see Callie in action, but she was also dying to show her what she herself was capable of. I will blow her mind.

A voice sounded through the spacious maze.

'YOU MAY BEGIN IN 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...' Another loud buzzer signaled the start of the game.

Callie took off at a jog, Arizona at her heels, their laser guns ready to fire. They decided to take the left side of the maze. Callie turned right… left… right again… They quickly lost themselves in the giant mass of pathways and lights. Arizona hadn't expected it to be this exciting. Blood was racing through her veins as her heart pumped the adrenaline to every part of her running body. This was... amazing. It took her right back to her childhood, to when she was practicing with her dad. He had taught her to be smarter, faster and better than the enemy. He taught her to hit... hard.

WHAM.

Arizona had been so deep in thought she didn't see Callie coming to a halt suddenly and bumped into her hard.

'Ouch!'

'Shhh, be quiet... dead end,' Callie whispered, facing a solid wall lined with green LED lights.

Arizona, who was pushed up with her front against Callie's back, saw this as a nice opportunity to tease the brunette a little. She stayed where she was and moved her mouth to her captive's left ear.

'That's convenient,' she whispered. 'I know so many things I could do to you in this dark corner... No one would find out...'
