So, here's the next chapter... I'm just gonna go ahead and warn people that I have never been in any time of dating/romantic situation... just kinda young... Anyway, I said that to imply that any interaction they have romantically may not seem like a normal relationship, because I don't know how all of that stuff goes... That's why they didn't exchange phone numbers or emails or anything like that... It just didn't cross my mind... Sorry if it's not too realistic. And… It's kinda cheesy… I just started thinking about the commercial Liz did in 30 Rock… Well, I'll go ahead and continue with the chapter... Hope it's bearable, and even the slightest bit realistic...
Callie snapped off the bloody rubber gloves that she had been using during surgery, and threw them into the wastebasket, with a smirk accompanying her face. She had totally rocked all the surgeries that she had performed that day, and, now, she was finally free to go home. She practically skipped along to her cubby, looking forward to a night off. She had barely pushed open the door when she stopped, her breath taken away from the sight in front of her. Arizona was shrugging off her scrubs, exposing her bare skin, unknowingly, to Callie. Callie, wanting to kick herself afterwards, coughed quietly. Though the cough was muffled, Arizona had still heard it. She looked up, and smirked at Callie, and then continued to change into her 'normal' clothes (which, today, happened to be a light blue dress that hugged her curves perfectly), teasing Callie throughout the whole process.
"You're staring, Calliope." Arizona said with a mischievous smile, her blue eyes twinkling madly, her pupils expanding every second, from the intense attraction that she felt towards the dark haired beauty.
Callie had opened her mouth, just about to respond when Arizona proceeded to push her to the wall, and took the Callie's lips in hers, who, in turn, traced the blonde's bottom lip with her tongue, resulting in a small moan. It took all of Arizona's self-control to not let the affection go any further. She pulled away from the kiss leaving the Ortho surgeon with pupils just as wide from attraction, and eyes that said that she wanted more. A smirk formed on Arizona's lips from this sudden wave of boldness, and she looked Callie straight in the eyes. "Will you go on a date with me tonight, Calliope?"
Callie, with a pleased expression, responded, "Yes. Of course. Just give me a few minutes and I'll be ready.'' She turned to her cubby, and pulled the red dress and heels that she kept for 'emergencies,' giving Arizona, in turn, a fair show. When she was finished, she grabbed her black purse. "Where were you thinking we'd go?''
The blonde playfully took Callie's hand in hers as they walked out of the locker room. "I was thinking that we could go to that little Italian restaurant down the road from here. I've heard it's to die for."
Callie and Arizona's waiter had just finished pouring the ladies wine when Arizona picked up her glass and sipped the wine slowly, looking at Callie, and thinking as she drank. She could not deny that it took all of her strength to not try and get Callie into her bedroom yet; when she was around the woman, even now, on their first real date, she felt such attraction and such electricity, that she found it hard to think of much else. But she had relationships that had started with sex before that didn't end well. She had enough respect and hope for Callie and their budding relationship that she didn't want to take the chance. She'd have to try and hold out, which, at the moment it crossed her mind, she'd knew it'd be a big challenge, for Callie was caressing her hand seductively. Arizona looked up and saw that Callie was stifling a giggle.
Arizona questioned, with a half-smile, "What's so funny Calliope?''
Callie had positioned herself to where she knew that the candle light would embrace every feature on her face, and then, in a 'cheese ball' manner, she moved her eyebrows up and down. "Can't you just see this being one of the sets for those phone dating commercials? With the women who are trying to be seductive shrugging their eye brows and winking?" she finished, after miming, continuing to giggle. Arizona, finally understanding, joined in on the giggling. "Those commercials are awful!"
Their waiter, having only seen the bit of miming, rolled his eyes as he served the main dishes to the women. They ate their dinner, speaking almost the whole time. They talked about Seattle Grace, the residents and the attendings, so that Arizona could get a quicker feel for the place and its people. They talked about past dating experiences; things they enjoyed things they didn't. They proceeded to talk about a variety of topics, sneaking in a touch of a hand or footsie whenever they deemed appropriate. By the end of the meal, both were thinking to themselves about how well the date was going, and how little either wanted it to end.
They carried this last thought all the way back to the car that they had come in. After noticing how bright the moon was that night, Callie and Arizona both leaned against the car, taken away by the view of the night sky. Arizona glanced at Callie and noticed how beautifully the moonlight collided with her face, and how beautiful her eyes looked when they were filled with this child-like amazement. Arizona moved so that she'd be facing Callie, who was continuing to look at the sky for another moment, and who muttered, "It's really a beautiful view." Arizona, still looking at the woman in front of her, smiled as she responded, "Yes. It really is." Callie, who instantly noticed that Arizona was not talking about the sky, made eye contact with the blue orbs. Callie's eyes twinkled with anticipation as Arizona pushed one of her dark locks behind her ear, and her eyes made her way down to the Latina's lips; eyes that had quickly glazed over with desire. Arizona gently pressed her lips to Callie's, and sucked on them lightly. The kiss quickly became more heated, and the blonde guided the couple to where they'd be leaning on the car. She ran her hands through her date's rich, dark hair, tugging on it slightly as their tongues began to intertwine. She let out a small moan, and with a husky voice, while catching her breath, muttered, "Calliope." Callie moved her hands to the Peds surgeon's waist, for the last few heart-stopping kisses, and then pulled away, with a smirk.
The blonde, having given up on her earlier promise to herself (or so she thought), looked at Callie with pouty eyes. Callie, continuing to smirk, said, "We should save something for the next date." She leaned in and pecked the Peds surgeon one last time, and then got in the car. She quickly rolled down the window before Arizona crossed to the driver's seat of the car, and playfully said, "Take me home, Blondie." The blonde smiled, rolled her eyes, got into the car, and started them on their course to drop Callie off. Callie stroked Arizona's hand, which rested on the gear shift, on their way to her home.
When they finally arrived to her building, Callie leaned towards the middle of the car and gave Arizona one last memorable kiss for the night. She then grabbed her purse and got out of the car. "I had a good time, Arizona. Thanks for a wonderful date." She then walked up to her buildings door, and paused for a moment, wondering if she should be impulsive and invite Arizona up yet, since it was technically only their first date. She chose not to, deciding that it would be more fun to tease Arizona for the slightest bit longer, and continued to walk into her building.
Arizona leaned against her seat and sighed. She had already fallen for Calliope Torres, after only one date. She sat back up, and put the gear shift in drive. She pressed the gas and started to make her way home, happy that she chose to come to Seattle.
So, like I said, I've never been through this stuff before; it won't be a completely accurate date… So, yeah… I tried my best with the writing… I just always phrase things strangely, and it'll probably have sounded weird… And I don't put in much dialogue, so Arizona doesn't seem as cheerful as she usually does in the show… I'm trying! Well, anyway, thank you for reading this fic. Also, thanks to those who have either reviewed, set an alert, or added the story as a favorite. I appreciate it… Well, please R&R, to let me know how I'm doing… Have a good weekend, or week, if I don't post this until Sunday or later… d-_-b
