Sorry guys but I couldn't help myself. A little more drama, a little more sexual frustration, well, you all know that the end of this story is coming closer. But I want to finish off big!

CHAPTER 48

"What the hell?" Callie blurted out making Derek, Miranda, Mark, Teddy and Owen all turning their heads to her direction. "Arizona, what is going on here?"

Everyone's attention turned towards Arizona in that exact moment.

"This supposedly sent email is in fact sent from my address" the blonde PED surgeon started off in a small voice.

Callie's jaw dropped and she gave Arizona a look full of doubt.

"You're kidding, right?"

Arizona shook her head as a no.

"I'm not", she said. "I wish I were though. But, I didn't sent it."

It seemed like everyone had held their breaths cause suddenly all the attendings around the conference table sighed out their reliefs.

Arizona desperately tried to read the expression in Callie's face but the Latina made it hard to do so since she had chosen to look down the table.

"But how is that possible?" Derek asked. "Is there someone else who has access to your office here? And your password to your email?"

"No", Arizona answered and swallowed hard. "There isn't."

"When is this email sent?" Mark asked dumbfounded. "Day, hour?"

Chief Webber cleared is throat and started to look in his papers.

"It was sent exactly one week ago, 11.36 pm.," he declared.

Callie's mind was working hard. For a split second she really had doubted Arizona. She would never, ever admit that to anyone and just doing it quietly to herself hurt. Of course Arizona hadn't sent any stupid email. She lifted her head and searched for the blonde's eyes across the table. Callie gave her lover an encouraging look and Arizona immediately relaxed when she noticed the brunette's believe in her.

"But that can not be" Teddy exclaimed loudly making everyone's heads turn to her. "Cause at that time being, Arizona and I was drinking coffee in the cafeteria. Remember that?"

Arizona blinked both once and twice before she could answer Teddy's statement.

"Is that true Dr Robbins?" Chief Webber questioned in between.

"Yes!" Arizona said quickly. "I remember that. I did tell you that I was going to Washington to visit my parents and then Callie showed up."

"Are you willing to give your word on this to Mr. Jennings and the board?" Chief Webber asked directly to Teddy.

"Of course I am!" Teddy said firmly. "It's the truth."

"This whole thing is the most stupidest thing I've ever heard" Miranda Bailey huffed. "This must be a dumb joke from beginning to end. I mean, how does this Nathalie Porter think she's going to get out of this one?"

Silence engulfed them all in the conference room. Everyone was clearly at Arizona's side in this mess but they all knew that there was a few hurdles to get over before they had the permission to kick Nathalie Porter's lying ass.

Callie and Arizona had locked eyes with each other. The comfort they both found in that moment was indescribable. It was Calliope Torres and Arizona Robbins against the world. And they were going to make it.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Are you okay?"

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?" Callie smiled and hugged the blonde from behind where they stood in their kitchen.

They had gone straight home after their shift was over. They had walked hand in hand in silence. The whole day through they hadn't exchanged more than looks with each other. But they were fine. They were more than fine. Arizona was extremely relieved over the fact that Chief Webber had wanted her to work as usual. And she was extremely grateful towards Teddy and the cardio surgeon's good memory.

"I love you" the blonde replied and leaned in to Callie's arms. "And therefore it is very important to me how you are doing."

Callie laughed softly and kissed her lover's cheek.

"I'm here with you", she answered in a low voice. "In my arms. I couldn't be more okay."

Arizona turned her head just enough to get access to the Latina's scorching hot lips. The blonde moaned low in to the kiss that stayed soft and tender.

"I just love to kiss you" Arizona sighed out. "I could kiss you forever and ever."

"We can arrange that" Callie smirked and turned the blonde around so that they were facing each other.

A small smile started to play in the corner of Arizona's mouth.

"Really?" she said and arched one of her perfectly shaped eyebrows. "Cause I remember something about us getting married…"

Callie smiled teasingly and pretended to think.

"Hmm…I remember something about that to."

"I've been thinking about it a lot lately" Arizona admitted softly and stroked the back of Callie's arms lovingly while she talked. "I want us to get married. As soon as possible. I want to be yours."

"You are mine" the Latina pointed out and leaned forward and started to place hot and openmouthed kisses along the blonde's jaw line.

Arizona tried to maintain her control but it was hard to do so as usual when Callie's lips worked her magic on her.

"You know what I mean", she mumbled. "And I have a suggestion."

"I'm listening", the Latina murmured against Arizona's neck.

"I don't think we should have sex until we're married."

Callie froze and the kissing stopped abruptly.

"What did you just say? Cause it sounded like you said something about us not having sex and those words don't match. So, I'm guessing I just heard you wrong."

The Latina hushed for a moment to give the blonde a chance to tell her that she was just kidding. But Arizona's expression told her that the no sex-thing clearly was meant seriously.

"But why?" Callie whined. "You know we're no good like that…"

"Excuse me?" Arizona said ironically. "So basically, you're saying that if we don't have sex then we're no good together?"

"That's not what I meant", Callie pouted.

"Oh God!" the blonde continued. "I feel so…used!"

"Oh shut up", the Latina said and slapped Arizona's arm playfully. "But seriously, why?"

Arizona's expression went back to being serious again and Callie could see that this obviously was important to the blonde.

"Cause I want our next time to be something memorable" she explained.

"But baby" Callie cut her off and winked. "All of our times together are memorable…"

"Can you just be serious for one minute?" Arizona said trying really hard to sound angry but had to bit back a smile that threatened to show.

"Fine" the Latina said. "I'll behave…for now."

"Callie!" the blonde warned.

"Okay, okay", Callie laughed and held up her hands in resignation. "Talk to me. I'm listening. I promise."

"I just really want this Calliope", Arizona said seriously. "I've been dreaming about my wedding since I was a little girl and I…"

"Okay" the Latina said.

"O-okay?" the blonde got out. "You're okay with this?"

"I seem to remember a similar talk we had exactly one week ago" Callie smiled. "And I will give you the same answer as then. "I love you and I will do anything to make you happy. Because that's to most important thing in the world to me. So if this is something you want then I want it to."

"Thank you" Arizona said gratefully and put her arms around the Latina's neck.

"But just to be clear", Callie said. "If we're going to get through with this then we have to set a date. Now."

"Two months from today", the blonde replied directly. "Cause then we can match the honey moon with our summer vacations."

"Two months?" Callie sounded horrified. "No sex for two whole months?"

Arizona couldn't hold back her smile and laughter any longer.

"Aah baby", she said and cupped the Latina's face with one hand. "I promise I'll make it worth your while…"

Callie got something evil in her eyes.

"So, what does this mean exactly from now on? I can't kiss you….like this?"

The Latina leaned forward and placed one kiss on Arizona's neck.

"Or like…this?" she continued and moved up to kiss the corner of the blonde's mouth. "Cause if this means that we can't even kiss…then you have to stop being all hot twenty four seven."

"It means that you can kiss me whenever you want to" Arizona cut her off and locked lips with her lover to shut her up.

"Good" Callie mumbled in between kisses. "Cause I can't live or breathe without your kisses…"

"Then shut up and kiss me" the blonde breathed out and deepened the kiss even more.

So Callie stayed quiet and did as she was told. And just kissed Arizona Robbins.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The following days were quite hard on both Callie and Arizona. Mr. Jennings had taken his time with the board and it wasn't until Thursday Chief Webber had come to tell Arizona that she should bring her lawyer to the board's hearing the next day. Teddy had already spoken to Mr. Jennings and the board and it had gone well.

"God, I just want this to be over" Arizona sighed out to Teddy when the two friends sat at Joe's Thursday night after they had gone from the hospital.

Callie had to stay late to help Owen in the ER so when Teddy had suggested that the two of them should go get a drink Arizona hadn't been hard to convince.

"You have nothing to worry about" Teddy tried to reassure her and patted the blonde's back.

"Thank you Teddy", Arizona said with sincerity and grabbed some peanuts from the bowl in front of them on the counter. "You don't know how much it means to me that you're trying to help."

"Hey" the cardio surgeon said. "You're my friend. My best friend. Of course I will help you."

The blonde pediatric surgeon placed her hand on Teddy's shoulder and squeezed it gently.

"You know what?" she said. "Let's talk about something else. Something more funny. Enough with the crap in my life for now. What's up with you? Any hot guy you want to tell me about?"

Teddy blushed.

"Well, maybe."

"Maybe?" Arizona said with interest. "Who is he? Anyone I know? It's not Owen or Mark right?"

"Ha-ha", Teddy said sarcastically. "That's funny. You're funny."

Arizona winked at her friend and took a sip from her wine glass while she waited for Teddy to reveal who this new hot guy in her life was.

"It's one of my patients" Teddy admitted. "Or he was one of my patients. His name is Henry."

Arizona raised one eyebrow and looked expectantly at her friend.

"Really? That was a new one. Is he a good guy?"

Teddy nodded instantly.

"Oh yes. He is one of the good ones. I'm sure."

"Well, then I'm glad for you!" Arizona smiled.

"Thanks!" Teddy smiled back. "So, how are things between you and Callie?"

"It's great!" Arizona replied and lit up immediately when the subject Callie Torres came up. "Couldn't be better actually. Sure, this whole Nathalie Porter mess is a constant reminder of that everything isn't what it's suppose to be but we have actually set a date for the wedding."

"Well, that's great!" Teddy said happily. "When?"

"July 15th" Arizona revealed. "And we've also decided, or mostly it was me, that we're not gonna have sex until then either."

Teddy's facial expression changed in to doubt.

"You're joking, right? You two are like rabbits. You couldn't go without sex for that long even if you tried."

"Sorry to disappoint you Altman" Arizona smirked. "It's for real. I want the wedding night to be really special. But I must admit, I have someone at home that doesn't think that this decision is the best thing that I've come up with."

Teddy laughed out loudly.

"Had you expect anything else? This is the funniest thing I've ever heard regarding you two. Be sure to update me regularly…"

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Baby, are you awake?" Arizona whispered when she came home later that night and entered their bedroom.

"No, I'm talking in my sleep" Callie grunted. "Are you drunk?"

"No!" Arizona said at first but wasn't very convincing. "Well, maybe a little…but that's not the point."

Callie lifted herself up and leaned her weight on her elbows so she could see the blonde.

"Did you have a good time with Teddy?" she asked sleepily and rubbed her eyes with one hand.

Arizona smiled and climbed up on the bed and straddled the Latina's waist before she answered.

"Yes, I did."

"What are you doing?" Callie asked suspiciously when the blonde started to take her clothes off.

"I'm taking my clothes off", Arizona giggled. "Do you usually see me sleeping with my clothes on?"

The Latina swallowed hard when the blonde revealed her white lacy bra and her matching panties.

"You're teasing me", Callie pointed out.

"Maybe I do" Arizona smirked and leaned over Callie and pressed her lips against the Latinas. "But just a little."

The blonde parted her lips slightly and eased Callie's mouth open so she could let her wet and warm tongue slip in between the Latina's teeth. Arizona couldn't help her self to the feeling the kiss created and moaned low at the contact with her lover's tongue.

"Hold me", the blonde sighed out when the kiss came to an end and she rolled off Callie and popped her self down next to the warm Latina. "Just until I fall asleep."

Callie didn't say anything else. Instead she spooned the blonde beauty and pulled her closer when Arizona got under the cover. And it didn't take long before the two lovers were sound a sleep. Safe and close to each other…
