A/N: I'm little annoyed the way some of you are accusing Callie being a moron. When I started the story, I, of course, had some kind of characterizations in my mind both for Callie and Arizona. And Callie always has been like this from the very beginning of the story. Of course, people change, when they fall in love. But, that will take time. However, considering the womanizer nature that Callie has, she has not gone out with anybody after her marriage- what more do you want from her? She already has shown the highest level of commitment to Arizona. You can fall in love just within a blink of an eye, but to go through the process of being love takes time… it's not easy!

You don't bother about me, I don't exist"
Chapter 10
Callie's first day has been great so far! She is kind of happy with her co-workers. Once she closes the last file of the day, she shuts down her laptop. Should I ask Arizona to go to home together? She asks herself. Then, she shakes her head in negative, Colonel Arizona was so angry in the afternoon because of the lunch fiasco. When she is into her own thoughts, somebody says "hi" very softly from her back.
"Penny?" Callie gets pissed off on an instant. "What are you doing here? And Who told you that I was here?" Callie stands up while sliding her laptop in the side bag.
"Mark." Penny gives the best smile that she could master and adds seductively, "And I think, we just should celebrate this." Penny steps and snakes her hands around Callie's neck. "Don't you think so?"
But, all Callie thinks that Arizona should not see Penny. She does not know why she is thinking like this, but something tells her that seeing Penny in the office would not go well with her super hot headed wife. Looking around, she takes Penny's hands off around her neck, "this is an office, if I remind you."
"Oh! Yeah… from when has Callie Torres started thinking like this?" Penny asks carefully.
But, then Callie notices that Arizona is walking out of her office. The first thing, of course, Arizona sees is Penny standing there, at close proximity of Callie. Pretending that she hasn't seen anything, Arizona starts walking towards the exit, but Callie calls her, "Arizona, are you going home?"
"Yes." Arizona stops momentarily. "But, I guess, you are not."
"True, she is going out with me." Penny again snakes around Callie's waist.
Arizona notices those hands around Callie's waist for a while and a senselessness feeling of jealousy hits her somewhere down in her chest. She again starts walking not replying. She has a dinner meeting to catch with Carlos.
"I'm going home with her and you just go to hell." Saying this Callie almost starts running after Arizona. She catches up Arizona quickly, "Hey… take me home with you."
"Why? Isn't she taking you with her?" Arizona replies in a slight angry voice.
"She wants!" Callie replies solemnly.
"So?"
"I want to go with my wife." Callie replies and gives Arizona a silly smile flashing all her teeth. In fact, Callie also has got a little uncomfortable after admitting the little thing.
Arizona halts a little at this blunt admission of feelings. She finds Callie's smile so adorable that she wishes to stay in that moment for rest of her life, just to revel in those silly moments. Arizona has always been picky in terms of making friends or girlfriends. All her friends are sophisticated, posh and so unlike of Callie. Callie's childish behaviours, her rawness, the wilderness she possesses, the immaturity she has, have started consuming Arizona's senses faster than her reality.
"Callie, come out from the washroom. It's been an hour that you are there. I need to take a shower too." Arizona starts yelling from the washroom door. After coming from the office, Callie has occupied the washroom now more than an hour.
"I need 15 minutes more." Callie yells back from behind the curtain.
"NO way." Arizona impatiently goes near the shower curtain. "If you don't come out within 2 minutes, I'm going to step in."
"OOhhh, wifey, if you are this impatient to have shower sex with me… you don't need to make an excuse." Callie replies.
"I don't hear the sound of water, anymore. What are you doing? And why do you need 15 minutes more?"
"Now I need 20 minutes more." She giggles a bit.
Arizona cannot tolerate this anymore. She needs to catch up the diner meeting by 7 in the evening for which she is already late. Impatiently, she just removes the curtain and finds Callie drying up her hair with one towel, while the other one is draped around her body. Still, small droplets of water are shining on Callie's bare shoulders and most of the other parts of her body are exposed.
"Arizona…" Callie barely murmurs, but Arizona steps into the shower place as if she is under some spell.
Arizona has never been this turned on in her whole life, the way she is right now. Every fiber of her body is aching to touch the other woman. The fire, that her center is experiencing right now, is something unreasoned and living inside her. Arizona touches Callie's shoulder with shaky fingers, making Callie stop all her movements. Callie has been with so many women in her life, the way Arizona scares her, no one has done that to her. For her, Arizona is frightening- the way her heart swells with emotions because of the little physical proximity with this blue-eyed woman, she feels vulnerable. Callie hates to be defenceless.
When Arizona finally touches her cheeks, Callie simply closes her eyes while trying to wet her dry throats. Arizona slowly removes the wet strands of hair from Callie's forehead and goes closer to her. Arizona is so close to Callie that Callie can feel the softness of the other woman. Callie too now wraps around Arizona's waist letting the wet towel dropping from her hand. She pulls Arizona more onto her.
Callie notices how Arizona has starts looking at her lips. Callie can give up everything right now to enjoy the curves of this woman in her arms. Callie leans a little on Arizona and brushes her lips on Arizona's ears and feels how Arizona has grabbed her shoulders with her nails.
"Arizona?" Callie calls softly and takes a pause making Arizona's heart stop beating for few seconds.
"Hmm?" Arizona somehow replies.
"Don't make me do something, for which I lose you forever." Callie murmurs quietly.
Arizona's closed eyes are opened on an instant and the grips of her hands are loosened immediately. She pulls out of the embrace and stares at Callie.
Callie does not say anything. Rather, she steps out of the shower leaving Arizona standing in the middle of the shower.
"Ohh …shit! I'm sorry Callie."
Callie just stops at the exit of the washroom. "I have started liking you… wifey…a lot…" She says in a heavy tone- stressing on each of the said word. And she leaves… blurring Arizona's senses for forever!
Love is like a flood, it washes away all your senses! And still people fall in love. And the crazy ride in it makes it worthy to take it rest of your life, with that one crazy one... for that one crazy person, whom you may hate, sometimes!
A/N: Tell me, how did it go!
