''Callie, no. Listen to me. Girls who likes girls is not disgusting, it's a normal thing. Okay?''

''No, it's not normal. Mark, I'm not normal. I should be like the other girls and like boys, but no I'm in love with my best friend and she's a girl!'' Callie answered and started to cry even more.

''Calliope Torres, listen to me! There's nothing wrong with this. Love is love.'' Mark said and hugged his friend.

''Okay, let's say that it is okay then. But Arizona is not into girls, and I don't know how much longer I can hide this. What if she thinks I'm disgusting?'' Callie answered.

''Have we met the same Arizona, you and me? Because I can't even remember how many times I've heard her say things like 'I believe in love, love is love, everyone should be able to love who they want without being judged.' So if there's something I'm 100% sure about it is that Arizona will not think that something is wrong with you for liking her.'' Mark said with a smile on his face.

''Yeah, you're right.'' Callie answered ''and thank you for being here tonight, I don't know what I would have done without you.''

''Always, Torres. I guess that you don't want to go home to your place tonight?''

''Not really, but I don't have another choice.''

''My parents are on a trip so I'm alone, you can sleep in our guest room tonight.''

''Thank you, Mark. You're the best friend ever!''

''I know I am.'' Mark said and helped her get up from the bench ''let's go home.''

The next morning.

Arizona woke up half an hour later than she usually woke up and that meant that she was meeting Callie at their place in fifteen minutes. She was never going to be able to do all of her morning chores' in 15 minutes!

''MOM! DAD! Why didn't you wake me up?! I'm late!'' she screamed as she ran down the stairs a few minutes later to get her breakfast.

''We thought you were starting school later since you didn't come up, sorry.'' Her mother answered and continued to read the newspaper.

''Ugh, my whole day is ruined and everything is your fault!'' Arizona said and took an apple with her and started to go to the place where she was meeting Callie every morning.

''Someone's a little moody.'' Arizona father said and laughed when he saw his daughter run from the house.

Arizona looked at her watch and saw that she had five minutes left until she was meeting Callie so she had to walk a lot faster than usual. It was a beautiful day, no rain for the first time in a week. It was late November so the snow would probably come soon. Arizona loved the snow, it was so beautiful and pretty. But what if it didn't snow in Angels City? She had no idea if it did or not. Her thoughts about snow disappeared quickly when she saw Callie, but Callie wasn't alone. She was standing there with Mark, why was she standing there with Mark? Mark doesn't even live close to this place.

''Hi Callie! And hi Mark, what are you doing here?'' Arizona said when she came closer.

''I had a bad night yesterday so I slept at Mark's place.'' Callie answered.

Arizona was hurt. Why didn't Callie come to her place, why did she go to Mark? He was… a boy. ''What happened? You know that you're always welcome to my place, right?'' Arizona said and they started to walk to school.

''My mom said some things to me and I just couldn't listen to it anymore so I went to the park. And I met Mark there and talked to him and he offered me to stay at his place for the night. And thank you, I know that I can always trust you Arizona.'' Callie answered.

''Okay, that sucks. That your mother did that, I mean. And Mark, how did the date go? I want to hear everything!'' Arizona said, she was happy again now that she knew the truth.

''Oh my God, the date! I totally forgot to ask about it yesterday we were so busy, I'm sorry!'' Callie said to Mark. And it gave Arizona a weird feeling. Callie hadn't slept with Mark, had she? They seemed so…. Mysterious.

''It's okay. The date went well. I took her to the cinema and we watched a movie. And then I followed her home and I kissed her goodbye outside of her house.'' Mark said.

''Awww! That's so cute!'' both of the girls said when Mark had finished. ''And there she is!'' Arizona added when they saw April entering the school, she was just a few meters ahead of them.

''April!'' Callie shouted. And April turned around and stopped to wait for her friends.

''Hi guys!'' She said when they were next to her.

''Hi.'' Mark said and gave April a quick kiss. Arizona and Callie both looked at each other with excited faces, they were so happy for their friends. And then all of them walked into the classroom. They had a one hour long English lesson with Mrs. Anderson.

''Hi everyone. Today we are starting a new project. You are going to write an essay about something you want to change. For example when I did this with another class a year ago a student wrote about that he wanted the whole world to speak Spanish.'' The class started to laugh ''do you understand the task?'' Everyone nodded. ''Any questions?'' Arizona raised her hand.

''Arizona?''

''How many pages long does it have to be?''

''Oh, right. About 2-5 pages!'' Mrs. Anderson answered. ''okay, let's start.''

Callie knew exactly what she wanted to write about, same sex marriage. Even though she felt a little weird for liking a girl she totally didn't understand why it wasn't legal. Mark was right, it's a normal thing. Callie started to write and when the lesson was over 50 minutes later she had written a whole page already.

''What are you guys writing about?'' Callie asked when she, Arizona, April and Mark walked out of the classroom.

''Animal rights.'' April said.

''Death penalty.'' Mark answered.

''Same sex marriage. And you?'' Arizona said.

''Really? I'm writing about same sex marriage too.'' Callie answered surprised.

''It's like we're made for each other, we always do the same things!'' Arizona said and laughed.

''It's like we're soul mates.'' Callie said.

''Yes it is!'' Arizona answered. ''Come here soul mate, we have a math test to do.'' The girls started to laugh and they took each other's hands and walked to the classroom again.
