Chapter Twenty-Nine.
Callie POV.
I'd noticed Arizona watching me a little while ago, her eyes never faltering, it made me smile inside. I was having a conversation with the rest of the family but my attention was directed somewhere else entirely. I'm broke from my thoughts of the blonde watching me, as Arizona is asked a question by my father.
"I'm sorry, what did you say?" A small blush creeping up her face, as everyone around the table gives off a chuckle knowing exactly why the blonde didn't hear the question.
"I said, Calliope here tells us you race, Super Cross was it?"
"Uhm, yes Sir." She responds, feeling slightly intimidated. I move my hand and rest it on her thigh, as a show of comfort and support. I go to take a drag of my water when my father blurts out his next question.
"And do you earn any money from this racing?" Water goes flying out of my mouth and down my chin, my face one of pure shock.
"Dad!" I exclaim. "That has nothing to do with you." I scold.
"Calliope, it's fine. Honestly." Arizona says softly to me. I smile and grip her thigh tighter, my face asking if she's sure, she just nods.
"Yes it does. I have contracts from a lot of sponsors and as long as I race I get paid, even more if I win." She says in a calming tone, letting off a small laugh and settling the nerves I didn't know were there.
"Good good, just checking that my daughter is going to be looked after when you two marry." My jaw drops but this time it's everybody else that scolds my father.
"Papi, don't you think it's a little soon to be talking about marriage?" I hear Aria question, my mother agreeing. I drift out of the discussion thinking about how amazing it would be to be married to Arizona.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Said blonde leans over and whispers into my ear. Before I let my brain think I'm speaking out exactly what I was thinking.
"How amazing it would be to be with you, to be married to you." As the last words leave my mouth, I realise what I just said and my head spins around to see her face. To my surprise she has a huge smile on her lips. She leans in to my ear her breath sending shivers down my spine.
"Does that mean you want to marry me?" She whispers.
"Well yh, someday. But obviously not right now, Aria's right it's too soon and I want to get to know you before popping the question, maybe move in together first. You know, rather than skipping a whole bunch of steps." Again, she just smiles before replying with an 'I'll be waiting'. Again before my mind communicates with my mouth I blurt out rather loudly..
"Wait, how come I'm the one proposing?" Everyone's eyes are soon on us.
"See.. I told you it would happen." My dad declares with a smug smile.
"Oh crap." I mumble just load enough for Arizona to hear. She takes my hand before addressing everybody round the room.
"Nobody proposed.. Yet, we were just discussing something and I said something about 'I'll be waiting' and Calliope asked why she was proposing, which," She turns to me, "You don't have to if you don't want to... I can always do it." And finishes with a wink. Every time she winks or smiles at me, showing those adorable dimples, my heart skips a beat and I get butterflies. I pull her in for a kiss, not letting it get to heated remembering where we are. I pull back slightly and husk in her ear.
"I don't care who proposes as long as we're together." Her lips soon meet mine again, this time her tongue exploring my mouth. We're broken from our kiss by a roar of throats clearing. We turn and look at everybody before apologising and changing the topic of discussion to something less serious. Throughout the rest of the time spent with my family, my hand never leaves Arizona, there is always some form of contact.
It soon turns dark outside and everyone retreats to their designated bedrooms for a restful nights sleep.
