Chapter Twenty-Six.
Arizona POV.
"Hey Z, you okay?" Teddy asks me as the tears continue to fall. I just shake my head as I try to hold back my sobs. I turn and walk past her back into the house, I head up the stairs. Teddy soon follows, finding me curled up on the bed, sobs racking my body as it curls around the pillow Calliope had been using, my face buried within it somewhere, breathing in her scent. Teddy curls up beside me, laying a tentative hand on my shoulder, offering a silent support. My sobs soon die down, leaving my unstoppable tears flowing down my tears, crashing into the pillow below.
"Hey.."
"I miss her and she's only been gone for what, like, 20minutes.. What am I suppose to do when all I can think about and want is her?" I ask rhetorically not expecting any sort of answer from my friend.
"Look.. I'm not suppose to say anything really until tomorrow or something, but you definitely need this, I'm sure Ads won't mind."
"Won't mind what?" I ask my interested peaked a little. I see Teddy reach around to her back pocket, removing an white envelope, she hands it to me.
"What's this?" I question.
"Just open it and see." She commands. I slowly unfold the envelope and cautiously open it. I take a look inside before sliding my hand in and pulling it out again, revelling two plane tickets to Miami.
"OMG! Where did you get these from?" I gasp as I sit up and wipe at my tear stained cheeks.
"Addy handed that to me while you were helping Callie pack."
"But why?" I ask, still a little shocked.
"Because she said, and I quote.. 'I don't want a depressed friend for the rest of my holiday'."
"So she bought two first class plane tickets for us to go to Miami tomorrow?"
"Wait! Did you say first class?" Teddy shockingly asks, bolting up to my side to see for herself.
"What you didn't see that.. written in big, bold letters?" I query. "Maybe we should get you some glasses." I joke.
"Hey.. I was a little shocked to notice anything other than the fact she'd just given me two plane tickets. I wasn't really paying attention to anything else." She defends.
"Wait a minute.. What happens when we get to Miami, like where do we go?" I nervously turn and question my best friend.
"Um, Mark and Lexie are flying down too, there gonna be our guides and drive us to Callie's parents place." She responds like she's been planning this for weeks. I smile, then realize I have to pack and leap off the bed and into the closet.
"Uhh, What are you doing?" I hear come from somewhere behind me in the room.
"Looking for a case so I can start packing." I respond nonchalantly as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. I hear Teddy mumble something that sounds like 'of course' before shouting that she's going to go do the same, but also, that she's gonna stop off and have a word with Mark and Lex on the way. I just grumble a reply before hauling my case onto the bed and flinging it open. I then freeze, thinking of something. Grabbing my cell I punch in the number I so very often use, and wait while it rings.
"Hello"
"Hey Timmy, can you do me a favour for a couple of days?" I request.
"Yh sure Sis, what can I help you with?"
"I need you to look after Tess for a few days.."
"Sure, no problem.. Any specific reason?"
"Yh, Addison gave Teddy two plane tickets, for me and her, for Miami and we leave first thing in the morning." I answer excitedly.
"Okay then.. Have fun, don't worry about stuff I got ya covered."
"Thanks Tim, I owe you one."
"Don't mention it. I got some stuff to do, so I'll see you when you get back."
"Yh, thanks again. Bye Timmy."
"Bye Zone." And then the line goes dead and I get back to packing. I decide to pack some dress-y clothes, nothing over the top but good enough if we decide to go out to a restaurant. I pack some jeans, a couple chequered shirts, some plain polo t's and my bikini, remembering Addy saying something about lot's of sun bathing. I'm soon done, having grabbed some essentials, like my toothbrush, deodorant and other such things. I realise that it's only just hit lunch time so decide to hit the track for a little practice.
The sky soon darkens. I jump in the shower, having trained all day and now being covered in dirt, dust and oil. As I step under the flowing water I wince at the water hitting my cut skin, thinking back to earlier in the day...
I'm taking the corner, same as I usually do when my mind drifts to Calliope and my memories of making love to her, our romantic dinner last night and how wonderful she is. My mind is to preoccupied to notice that I have gone over a jump and am in mid air. By the time my brain and rational thought kicks back in, it;s too late as I come down sideways, hitting the dirt hard. The visor on my helmet shattering and a rip forming up the side of my jersey as slide across the compacted dirt.
Not having done anything in that moment about my newly formed injury, just jumping back on my bike, continuing to ride, I was now paying the price as the water splashed down onto it, causing it to sting like hell.
I soon step out from the shower and dry off. I eat a quick meal before retreating back to my room for a nice relaxing sleep, ready for tomorrow's adventure's.
