Well, here's the second chapter... It's not very fluffy at all, but it should get fluffy in the next few chapters... I'm not always too good with spelling or characterization, so I apologize if either are a tad off... I thought, since I forgot to include the disclaimer initially, I'd put it now... I don't own anything 'Grey's'... It'd be a mess... Anyway, thank you very much to those who read and reviewed the last chapter, and set the alert and favorite thingys, or just took the time to skim. It's all appreciated... I'll shut up, and just get to the story now... :D
Callie and Arizona had been talking for hours when the bartender that had been serving them drinks all night leaned towards them. "It's closing time, ladies. You're going to have to move this elsewhere."
The two women looked at eachother, both with a slightly lost expression. They had gotten so lost in eachother, that the world around them ceased to exist. Not in a purely conversational way, but also in a physical manner. Every time Arizona's hand skimmed Callie's, Callie's heart stopped, and when it started beating again, it just fluttered. It fluttered in a way that Callie had never experienced in any past romance, and in a way that, she knew, would leave her wanting more. Every time Arizona touched her shoulder after a cheesy joke when they were kneeling over laughing, Callie blushed from the electric sensation.
Breaking Callie's train of thought, Arizona said, "Well, I hope I see you around, Calliope," with a smile forming on her pink lips. She leaned forward and planted a kiss on Callie's left cheek, and then proceeded to walk out the door of the bar, sighing, in a happy manner. Even after merely a few hours of being in the presence of Callie, Arizona had felt a spark that had not been ignighted for years.
As Arizona left, Callie touched her left cheek, which was blushing, feeling the spot where she was pecked, while watching the blonde walk out the door, and, sadly, probably out of her life forever.
It had been three days since Callie had been to the clamy bar, and, as she suspected, she had not seen or heard from the blonde again. Needless to say, she returned to being faintly grumpy. She proceeded to walk ahead from her spot in the lunch line, and ordered a stale tuna sandwich and a salad. She took a seat by Mark, who was currently reading a plastics magazine. He sat the magazine down as she picked up her sandwich.
"Still bummed about that bar lady?" Mark asked, taking a bite of his sandwich, trying not to let crumbs get everywhere. Callie just kinda made a face, and he continued, trying to change the topic of conversation. "I heard that we're getting a new peds attending today... Some blonde chick from across the country." Callie nodded, scanning the lunch room, trying to find the new face. Proving to be unsuccesful, she gave up and took another bite of her salad. She listened to Mark spreading hospital gossip for about the next ten minutes, basically ingnoring him, up to the point where he stopped talking. His eyes were fairly big with surprise as they followed a blonde that was moving through the maze of tables. "Damn.''
Callie turned around to find who Mark had been looking at. As soon as she spotted the figure, her jaw dropped, and her heart started to beat a little faster. She turned back to her friend, "That's her! That's the woman I met in the clamy bar a few nights ago! What the hell is she doing here?", she said, with more excitement and surprise in her voice than any other emotions.
Having faintly heard a voice that sounded familiar, Arizona searched the tables for the owner of the vocal chords. She spotted the dark, curly hair, and moments later, her eyes connected with the eyes whose gaze she had found so powerful just nights before, which caused her breath to hitch. A smile formed on her lips, and, with a twinkle in her eye, and a spring in her step, she made her way to the table where Callie could be found.
"Is it okay if I sit with you two?" Arizona said, flashing a charm smile, which she had been told made her almost impossible to resist.
The two surgeons sitting at the table answered simultaneously, Mark providing a 'yeah', and Callie providing an ever so slightly bashful 'yes.' Arizona sat down, and Callie eagerly questioned, "Arizona! What're you doing here?"
"I work here now, Calliope. I'm Seattle Grace's new peds attending."
"That's great!" Callie chimed, before taking a swig from her water bottle. She grinned as she figured, to herself, that she now had more to motivate her to come into work everyday, with a smile on her face.
Mark stood up and said, in his rough voice, "Well, I guess I'll leave you ladies alone."
The women chatted for a few moments, until Callie remembered her scheduled surgery and excused herself from the conversation. As she walked away, she could feel Arizona's eyes all over her body. A smirk formed on her face, and she felt ready to kick any surgery's ass.
Well, there was the second chapter... Hope it wasn't too bad... I'm hoping to get them in a date-like situation in one of the next few chapters... Hope you could bear it! I'll try and update soon! Thank you if you read this! Please review... or something! :D Have a good remainder of the week! (In case I don't update before that point in time...) d-_-b
