A/N: Sorry for the delay. Here's a new chapter.

I don't own anything.


Chapter 5

Callie was frantically running everywhere in her apartment trying to get ready for work. She was only in her pair of tight blue jeans and her pink bra. She was going to be late. Again. Sofia wasn't even ready, she was running with her little legs in nothing but a diaper and she was giggling. Callie was chasing all over the place to put her clothes on.

She finally succeed to catch her, but when Sofia realizes it, she began to cry, upset that the fun in over. Trying to calm her fussing baby Callie doesn't hear the knock on the door. She also doesn't notice when someone opened the door and closes it behind them. It's when she hears the sulky voice behind her that Callie realizes that someone is in her house.

"Well, well, well… what are you doing to my god daughter in your pink bra? Very sexy by the way"

Slowly turning around, Callie's eyes widened when she sees the red head, body clad in a black skirt with a red top, matching stilettos, coat in one hand and the other hand holding a suit case.

"Addison! What are you doing here…? And how did you even get here?" asked callie stunned to see her best friend who was supposed to be in LA and not in her apartment when she was in the middle of a battle with her daughter trying to put make her wear her tights.

"Hello to you too, how are you? Yeah you know I'm fine" Addison sarcastically replied.

"Addison…" warned Callie.

"I called you to warn you that I was coming but you didn't answered and I found you key under the mat. By the way you should move it, it's too obvious". Addison explained.

"But what are you doing here in Seattle? And for how long? Where are you staying? Don't take it the wrong way, it's just that I'm surprised to see you! A really missed you!" she rambled.

"Well the thing is I'm not planning on going back to LA and don't worry I'm booking a room at the Archfield so I won't be in your hair" Addison explain and took Sofia out of her mother arms, she calmed down when she saw there was another person in the room. Addison kissed her and put her down and then Sofia went to play with the stuffed monkey Arizona gave her. The two friends finally greeted each other properly. "I missed you too Cal, but would you mind put a shirt on? Your bra is very distracting" she said teasingly with a smirk on her face when she and Callie parted from their hug.

Callie blushed and ran to her bedroom to put on her shirt.

"Sorry, it's just that I'm late and Sofia is driving me crazy" Callie tried to explain "you are really staying here? Why?"

"The practice was sued and we lost everything, we had to close it. The chief that I could always have my job back if I wanted to come back…so here I am. I called him and he said I could start tomorrow if I wanted" Addison replied with a smile, happy to be back. She loved LA and she did amazing friends back there but it wasn't the same as Seattle. Her best friend and her god daughter that she loved as if it was her own and people her considered family were here. Even if she was forced to come back, she was happy to be back.

"I'm really happy you're back! It wasn't the same without you!" Callie exclaimed taking her best friend in her arms for a quick hug "oh shit! I really have to go! Damn it! Sofia!" Callie panicked when she realized Sofia wasn't ready. She ran toward her and picked her up. She was going to go dress her when Addison stopped her.

"Callie wait! You can leave, I'm keeping Sofia today since I have nothing to do plus I really need some time with this little cutie. Go to work don't worry" Addison grabbed Sofia and hushed Callie out, handing her purse and keys.

"Bye baby, be nice, mama loves you" Callie said blowing a kiss to Sofia. With that she rushed to work for a day full of live saving surgeries.


Arizona woke up feeling good. She thought she never felt this good in so long. She felt like a weigh had been lifted off of her shoulders after telling her secret to Callie now they could move forward. She wanted to ask Callie on a date, and she planned to do it today first thing when she sees her.

She stood up and went to the bathroom to take a shower, she stripped out of her clothes went she realized she was "normal" again. Today is definitely a good day. She showered and got ready for work.

She had just finished her round, and took the stairs to go to the surgical floor when she saw Callie in her street clothes climbing the stairs as fast as she could. Arizona stood before her, not letting her pass. She then grabbed the lapels of Callie's leather jacket and kissed her. The kiss was soft and slow. They were losing themselves in each other when they heard the door of the staircase below them sprung open. They parted and Callie asked "Lunch?"

"Lunch!"

And with that they went on with what they were supposed to do, each with a big smile on their faces.


Lunch time came and Callie was sitting alone in the cafeteria with a salad in front of her. She had been waiting for a half hour now and she knew the blond wasn't coming. She supposed she has been pulled in to surgery in the last minute.

She was playing with her salad when someone sat down at her table. Hopping in what the blond who was always on her mind, Callie snapped her head up only to see mark. He opened his mouth to say something but Callie cut him off.

"don't." she said curtly and stood up to empty her tray in the trash and go as far away from the person she one thought was her best friend, the brother she never had.

"Callie please" mark said pleadingly following Callie when she left. She didn't stopped and started walking out of the cafeteria. Mark run after her and dragged her in the nearest room which was a supply closet.

"Mark! Let me go!" Callie said angrily trying to free herself from mark.

"I will if you listen to me! Please callie" mark said desperately. She calmed down and mark freed his grip on her. For several minutes they were silent, Callie waiting for mark to say what he needed to say and mark not knowing how to start. Finally having enough of this Callie made a move trying to leave the supply closet but mark stopped her.

"Wait! I'm sorry, ok! I'm sorry I was an ass when you needed your friend and kissed you. I really thought we had something, but now I realized it's just friendship." Callie opened her mouth trying to say something when mark hold up his hand and continued "and I know you're are gay, but I was blinded by my feelings for you. I know it's going to take for them to leave but I will try and I still want to be your friend. It may not never be the same as it used to be but it will still be something" he finished and then diverted his gaze from Callie and looked down. Callie saw that he was genuinely sorry, she understood that we couldn't stop who we fall for. Hell she even fell for the wrong person before. She took a step forward and took him in her arms. She felt him tensed at first and then he relaxed.

"It will take some time for things to go back the way they were. You almost ruined everything with Arizona. But you're my brother and I will always need you" Callie told him sincerely before kissing him on the cheek and leaving the supply closet.


Arizona just finished her surgery and she was late for her lunch date with Callie. She was running in the corridor but stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Callie and mark entering the supply closet. All her insecurities came flooding back. Was Callie going to tell mark about Arizona's condition? Does she has feelings for him that are more than platonic? Arizona didn't have the time to think more about it when her pager went off. She started running in the opposite direction and toward the ER. She immediately noticed were she was needed. The kid had an internal bleeding and a femoral fracture. Soon after Callie arrived and examined the kid. She tried catching the blond eyes but Arizona was looking everywhere but at her.

"Hey, I waited for you at lunch" Callie said trying to catch the blond attention.

"I was busy" came the short reply from Arizona. She didn't look at Callie, she was looking at the screen in front of her while she was moving the ultrasound on the kid's belly trying to locate the bleeding before going to the OR. Upon hearing the cold answer from the blond Callie frowned. She thought things were good between them since yesterday. Now was not the time to think about that, they needed to bring the kid to the OR and fix him back. She will deal with that later.

The atmosphere in the OR was so dense we could cut it with a knife. Arizona had yet to look Callie in the eyes and she didn't talk to her unless it was necessary. Callie was getting more and more frustrated. She didn't understand why Arizona was acting this way.

The surgery was a success, they had managed to stop the bleeding quickly and Callie fixed the break like she always did. They were scrubbing out, when Callie had enough of Arizona's weird behavior.

"Are you going to tell me what's wrong and why you're acting this way?" Callie asked drying her hands and throwing the towel. She was met with silence from Arizona, who still wasn't looking at her. She sighed "Arizona, please look at me" she asked pleadingly. Still nothing. Callie moved closer to her and placed her hand under Arizona's chin and lifted her head up so their eyes met. She realized Arizona's eyes were glistening with tears.

"Arizona…"

"Do you regret it?" Arizona said cutting her off. Callie frowned but Arizona continued. "Do you regret kissing me? I would understand if you do especially after knowing what I have. If it were me I would to, I would've run. I mean who wants to date a freak, right?" when she finished her rant, Callie was shocked by what she was hearing. How could Arizona be so insecure and think of herself as a freak? What she had made her unique and more lovable, she was far away from the freak she thinks she is.

"Arizona where is this coming from?" Callie tried to understand why Arizona was thinking this way.

"I was coming to meet you for lunch, and I saw you with mark going in the supply closet. I thought you…" Arizona said, head hanging low not able to finish what she wanted to say.

"You thought what? That I was going to tell him?" she didn't need to hear Arizona's response, just watching her face she knew that's what Arizona was thinking.

"I already told you that you can trust me. I don't think you are a freak, it's the complete opposite actually, I found you miraculous and so strong." Callie said taking a step closer to Arizona. She really needed Arizona to believe her. "I never felt anything this strong for anyone this soon" she took Arizona's face in her hands and wipe the lonely tear that managed to roll down her cheek. Arizona closed her eyes and let herself fall in Callie's arms. They stayed like that in each other's embrace for what felt like hours but was actually a couple minutes. Arizona stood back up, Callie hand came resting on her cheek and she placed the most delicate kiss on pink lips.

"I was really looking forward to have lunch with you" Callie said when they parted.

"Me too"

"How about you let me make it up to you by taking you on a date this Friday?" Callie asked a smile tugging at her plump lips.

"You don't have anything to make up for, it's just me and my craziness. And I would love to go on a date with you, calliope." Arizona said popping her dimples her eyes still a little wet. Callie kissed her again. To say she was exited was an understatement. With a last kiss they left the scrubbing room and each went toward their services floor.


The rest of Callie's day was a pretty normal day for a surgeon. Callie had only a hip replacement and a few broken bones. She was supposed to finish her shift at the same time finishes hers, but the blond had been pulled into surgery. When she came home, she found Addison sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Hey, thank for keeping Sofia." Callie said gratefully. Addison just nodded. She then redressed herself when Callie came to sit down next to her handing her a beer. "Can you do it again Friday night?" Callie asked sheepishly.

"Yeah, sure. But why? What do you have Friday? Is it a date? Ooh is she hot? I bet she is" Addison said wiggling her eyebrows teasingly. She started laughing when she saw Callie blushing.

"Umm yes, I do. And she's hot and cut and sexy and adorable" Callie was now rambling about the blond beauty a big smile across her face. Addison smiled, she was happy her friend was happy. She never thought she would see her smile again, and she is a hundred per cent she never saw her smile this big.

"Damn you do have it bad girl!" Addison said laughing.

"You have no idea" Callie said laughing too and resting her head on Addison shoulder. "I'm really glad you're back" they stayed like that and talk about everything the other has been missing, Callie told Addison about mark, she was shocked to say the least. Addison told Callie about the guys she date. Callie yawned "well I'm going to bed, you know where your room is. Good night ads" she stood up and went to prepare herself to go to sleep.

She just slipped under the cover when her phone buzzed. A big toothy smile spread across her face when she saw who it was.

Just came home. Thinking of you and can't wait for our date in two days! –A

Me too, sleep well beautiful xxx –C

You too Calliope xo –A

She put down her phone on the bedside table and drifted to sleep with a big smile. Friday couldn't come soon enough.


Thursday came and passed slowly it was excruciating. Friday was Callie's day off she spent it preparing her date with Addison who help her with Sofia. She really hoped Arizona would love what she had planned. She spent the day planning and replanning things until it was perfect and Addison forced her to stop stressing about it. Before she went to prepare herself she sent a text to Arizona telling her to come as soon as she's ready.

Arizona had to work today but she finished early leaving her plenty of time to get ready for her date with calliope. She was exited but also very nervous. She called teddy earlier who told her that she had nothing to worry about and to go for it. She also told her about a possibility of sexy time with Callie. At first she freaked out but then she reminded herself that she didn't have her extra appendage. She went to shower and when she came out she saw Callie's text. She dressed remembering Callie telling her to dress casual but to have something warm. Looking at herself one last time in the mirror she grabbed her purse and keys and went across the hall. The door opened reveling a red head, Arizona assumed it was the friend Callie had talk to her about that will be keeping Sofia tonight.

"Hi, is Calliope…" her words died in her mouth when she saw Callie coming from behind Addison. Callie was the most beautiful thing she has ever seen in her entire existence, she was wearing a dark tight pair of jeans with a very a purple top that showed a lot of cleavage and knee high boots she finished her outfit by putting on her leather jacket.

Callie was also speechless went she saw Arizona, her blond curl flowing. Addison was looking at the two smirking.

"Well tonight is going to be interesting especially if you stand there ogling at each other." she said trying to tear them out of their trance. When she sees that none of them is making a move, Addison claps her hands "come on! Out!" both girls are startled and they head out for the elevator.

The ride was calm with light conversation. Arizona has tried making Callie tell her where they were going but failed. She crossed her arms and pouted.

"You're cute."

"I'm not! I'm HOT!" she retorted pouting even more which made Callie let out a loud laugh.

"Yeah, that too." Callie agreed and laughed.

Arizona tried to keep pouting but Callie's laugh was infectious and she smiled.

Callie stopped in the middle of the road. Arizona looked at her confused, she didn't say anything instead she opened the gloves box and retrieved scarf. She handed to Arizona who looked more confused by the second.

"Put it on your eyes." instructed Callie.

"What?"

"Come on Arizona. It's a surprise I don't want to see now."

Arizona complied "I hate surprises." she grumbled.

Ten minutes later the car came to a stop, Arizona lifted her hands to remove the scarf around her eyes when Callie stopped her.

"Wait! Not now, I have to finalize some things first I will come get you" and with that she left the car.

Arizona was waiting impatiently, she heard Callie opening the truck and closing it seconds later and then nothing. She really hoped Callie hadn't took her in the middle of nowhere to kill her. She was thinking of all the possible things Callie could have planned when her door was suddenly being opened and she yelped from surprise and fear.

"Ok now you can remove it." Callie said laughing at the scared blonde and holding out her hand. "Mi lady." She then said when Arizona took her hand to exit the car. Standing up Arizona realized that they were indeed in the middle of nowhere, it was green everywhere.

"It's Derek land. Come on." She tugged at Arizona's hand and led her toward a small hill. At the top Arizona's breath hitch, the view was amazingly beautiful. We could see Seattle from there, the lights at night were amazing. It was really a beautiful city. Callie had placed a blanket on the floor, with rose petals around it and a few candle. The blanket was placed in a way that allow them to enjoy the view without being too close from the edge of the hill.

"Calliope it's beautiful" she said in awe, no one has ever done anything this romantic for her. She didn't know what she did to deserve someone like Callie.

Callie was looking at her when she replied "very…" Arizona turned to look at her and noticed the look in her eyes. They were darker, but with a little spark that made them shine. She took a step closer and took Callie's lips with her own. The kiss was soft but meant so much more than the other kisses they shared. Arizona traced her tongue over Callie's bottom lips asking her for access. Callie didn't even hesitate a second and opened her moth letting Arizona invade her mouth. Tongues exploring each other's mouth Callie puled Arizona closer. They both moaned at the contact. They stayed like that getting to mouth and enjoying each other's mouth until air became a necessity. Parting Callie pulled a stray of blond hair behind Arizona's ear. Breathless she said "let's eat."

"yeah." Arizona said just as breathless.

They sat down, and enjoyed the meal Callie had prepared them. They started talking and getting to know more each other. Arizona told Callie about how she grew up moving from base to base, why she was called Arizona, she told her about her adorable niece and her brother who was in his last tour in Iraq. She told her that she was really scared for him. Then Callie told her about how she grew up with the pressure and expectations of her family, how it was hard being gay in a very catholic family. They continued talking until brought up the sore subject.

"Arizona, why didn't you remove you're extra part surgically if it makes you miserable?" she asked wanting to understand.

"Well, it does not make me miserable, it just really hard sometime, and it made me doubt everyone. But I did try to remove it. It didn't work because it's a hormonal reaction, when my hormones gets high, it grows and when they return to normal, it goes away" she said with a sad smile.

Callie didn't say anything instead she scoot closer to her and took her in her arms "well it doesn't change a thing, I still like you very, very much" she said with a bright smile.

Hours later they stood in their hallway making out like teenager neither wanting the night to end.

"I want you so much, you have no idea what you do to me" Callie husks in Arizona ear and then nibbling her ear lobe sending a shiver through the blond.

"Call..i..o..pe" Arizona moaned.

Things were getting steaming until Callie's apartment door opened. Neither women noticed the smirking red head until said woman cleared her throat. Callie backed away from the blond as if she had been burned and Arizona turned every shades of red.

"Sorry to interrupt but it would be very nice if you could stop moaning in the hallway. I can hear you all the way to my room" Addison said feigning being annoyed. She closed the door and left the two lovebirds.

"Well… thank you for this amazing night Calliope, it was perfect." Arizona said

"Really?" Callie asked a little nervous, she wasn't sure if Arizona had liked it.

"Yes of course! Best. Date. Ever." She said punctuating each word with a kiss.

Callie smiled in the kiss. "I guess I will see you tomorrow?"

Arizona nodded "Good night Calliope" she opened her door and went inside.

"Good night beautiful" Callie went in her apartment with a smile so big her cheeks hurt.

Best. Date. Ever. Indeed.
