It takes me a second to process what anyone is saying to me, as I'm drinking- more like gulping- in the marvelous vision in front of me. A dazzling face and body sculpted by the Greek gods themselves.

The bright restaurant lights serves to exhibit the olive tanned goddess' stunning features- a soft complexion, shapely, delicate curves and exquisite lips...but there's more. Soulful hazel orbs that reveal bold strength, but also a calming softness. A beaming smile that could charm even misers out of their money...I take a deep breath. Her very being radiates confidence and sexiness.

"Is it okay we're here? This place looks really...fancy." My mysterious pretty lady in the rain pauses inside the restaurant just as we enter, her eyebrows deeply furrowed and lips taut.

I trace the movement of her eyes around the elegant decor of the restaurant- lavish, golden honey walls with hung oil paintings of grapes and vineyards, dark mahogany tables and booths highlighting the luxurious marble bar in the centre. I tilt my head and glance up at the ceiling above us in amazement. The ceiling resembles an overcast of soft twinkling lights, like flickering stars thrown onto an infinite sheet of pitch-black satin. Flickering stars. Oh crap. In my absent-minded ogling, I lead us straight into the first restaurant I saw- the first being the most romantic Italian restaurant in Seattle.

"We're just using the restrooms, that's all. Not like we're sitting down for dinner..."

She breaks into a teasing smile."Is this where you take all your first dates?"

I arch my eyebrow and answer back with a sly smile. "Oh no, this wouldn't be my first place to bring a first date. No, I'm pretty sure it would intimidate them. I've got more game than that."

"Yeah? Where would you bring them?"

I glance towards the posh marble bar and spot a very sweet and flirty couple stealing kisses. "Hmm...somewhere fun. Drinks at a bar and then... dancing. Your ideal night?"

She narrows her sultry eyes and gives me a playful roll of her shoulders, edging closer towards me.

"Uh-huh, sounds like a good night. Yeah, drinks at a bar breaks the ice pretty fast... but I've recently discovered the pleasures in cooking, so maybe I would bring them to my place for a nice night in?" She closes her eyes to savour her next words, "...a gourmet mushroom risotto and a glass of Cortese di Gavi. Mhhmm." Slowly opening her eyes, she cheerfully grins.

The way her eyes crinkle when she smiles is beautiful.

I wrinkle my nose in a sassy response."Mushroom risotto.. with a glass of white? Oh no, you want to pair risotto with a glass of red." I pause and give the olive tanned beauty a roguish wink. "...besides, red wine gets me tipsy a lot faster."

Her soft chocolate brown eyes widen and she laughs. "Hmm... I'll think about it."

She then slightly cocks her head to the left and gives me a very curious and quizzing look.Those eyes...those sparkling, enchanting eyes. What's going on in that beautiful mind? After a quick second, she flashes a quick smile, seeming satisfied with her thought and suddenly grabs my hand.

"Come with me to the bar."

I'm grinning like a surgeon after a successful surgery at her bold gesture and eagerly follow her lead to the bar. "Drinks at the bar? Moving a little fast, aren't we? We don't even know each others names!"

She playfully arches an eyebrow and giggles. "I could always ask you, but where's the fun in that? Besides, I've got more game than that." She pauses and lightly breathes, "By the way, I'm Callie."

Callie.

Callie is drop dead gorgeous in every sense of the word, "beauty."

Author's Note:

Please review! :)

The next chapter will come soon!

I actually don't know where this story might end up. I have an idea, but the beauty of just writing spontaneously is that the ideas just flow freely...this story was definitely not how I originally planned it either. I spend a lot of time on trains- the downtime allows me to fantasize.

In this short story, Callie definitely seems to be reciprocating Arizona's advances. Have you ever felt this automatic magnetism the first time you meet somebody? I have, just once, and it was a beautiful place to be.

If you're just passing by, drop a line- prompts, comments, questions...they're all very interesting! Thanks so much for so many follows for my very first fanficition!
