Also, I had so many reviews for Callie to propose already.. the proposal will happen... I promise... Just.. not yet. I've had the proposal planned out for a while, but I want certain things to happen first.. But we're getting close!


Chapter 27

"Daddy. I'm glad you came." Callie said opening her front door to her father and giving him a hug. He had flown out to see the girls and talk about what was next with the trial. "Come on in... How was your flight?" She said, waving her father in.

"It was great, you look much better than the last time I saw you. Arizona's treating you well I hope." He said stepping into the house.

"Yes daddy, she's treating exceptionally well." Callie said as they walked into the kitchen where she and Arizona had been cooking dinner. "I couldn't ask for anything better."

"Good.. Good. Cause I have connections, you know I wouldn't hit a woman, but.. I know people, just say the word..."

"Daddy!" Callie exclaimed. "No, Papi. If anything, she's too good to me." She laughed at her father. "She's perfect."

"Oh god.." Arizona said, walking into the kitchen, seeing Carlos there startled her. "Hey, Carlos it's good to see you again." She greeted the elder man with a hug. She hadn't heard the doorbell ring because she was in the walk-in pantry looking around making a store list for later.

It had been two weeks since Arizona had returned home from the Peds conference. Things seemed like they were getting back to normal, work was great, home was great, their friends were great. But every time they seemed to be getting comfortable in their lives something about the trial would come back and knock them down again.

"Arizona, it's a pleasure as always." He said retuning the embrace. "Calliope is treating you well I hope.. because if she's not I know peo..."

"Daddy." Callie laughed.

"No, Carlos." Arizona laughed. "You can call your dogs down, at least for today." She said, winking at the man.

Walking around the stove to stand beside her girlfriend, "ha, funny girl." She said pinching Arizona's butt, causing her to yell out in surprise.

"Would you like some wine daddy?"

"Yes, that would be great." He said, taking a seat. "Thank you Mija."

"I didn't see any bags, you are staying aren't you dad?" Callie asked. She didn't remember seeing any bags with him.

Taking his glass of wine. "Oh no, I'll just stay at a hotel, I can't impose on you."

"Carlos, we insist. I want you to stay. We have this big house, what's the point in having it if our family won't stay when they visits. I'm sure you will feel the same when Calliope and I come to visit." Arizona said adding the noodles to the boiling pot.

"Of course I would expect you to stay, no sense in paying for a hotel when we have the room."

"Okay, then that's settled."

"When exactly is it... that you will be visiting?" He asked sipping his wine and watching Callie stir her cheese sauce.

"Well..." Arizona said looking at Callie. "Before too long I hope, it just depends on what is going on with the trial I suppose." She said cutting up the chicken for their Alfredo.

"Ah.. Well, I'm hoping that will be starting the end of this month, maybe the beginning of March. That's about two weeks away. The trail should not take long my lawyers say, but I'll explain all that after dinner." He said, refilling his glass. "You can come to Miami after that, you both deserve a relaxing break after all you have been through."

"Sounds good." Callie said, kissing Arizona on the cheek. "I could really go for seeing you in a tight bikini sooner rather than later." she purred in her ear. "Pasta done, babe?"

Chills running down her neck, "Mmhmm.. just need to drain it and warm the bread in the oven real quick and dinner will be ready." she said, giving Callie a smug look and turning the stove eye off. "Will you get the salad out of the fridge?"

"Valentines Day is just two days away." Carlos said, watching the two women move around in the kitchen like they've been doing it for years. "I think I may surprise your mother with a Paris trip. I've been wanting to scope the place out for new business opportunities."

"Daddy." She scolded him, placing the salad bowl on the table. "I think taking Mami to Paris is a great idea. But… if you're going to let it be her Valentines Day gift, don't you think you should refrain from making business deals and just spend the day wining and dinning your wife? She deserves to be the center of attention if just for one day at least. Don't you think?"

"Listen at you, Calliope. This coming from someone who has always hated this day."

"Umm… what's this"? Arizona said, clearing her throat. Placing the plate of bread on the island. They never ate at their dinner table, unless they had a large group of people over for dinner. They both loved eating at the kitchen island.

Placing the Chicken Alfredo on the island, Callie sat down beside her father ignoring the comments. "You mean, 'Miss. I hate this stupid greeting card holiday' hasn't told you that she hated Valentines Day?"

Looking at Callie, puzzled. "Uhh.. no, she hasn't." Arizona said taking a seat. She wished she knew all of this before going out of the way to make plans for the day.

Seeing Arizona's demeanor change, Callie held up her hands to stop the conversation. "That's not what I meant, and that was a long time ago, dad." she said to her father. "I said, IF it takes a holiday for someone to buy me flowers or give me a present to show me affection, then I don't want it. If they can't buy me something just because, then I don't want anything on Valentines Day either." she said pulling Arizona closer to wrap her arm around her waist. "Arizona doesn't need a special day to show me that she loves me. She does that every single day, so no, I don't hate Valentines Day. It just gives me an extra day to show her how much I love her." she said as Arizona laid her head on her shoulder.

"I'm glad you feel that way now. So, anything special planned?" He asked.

"Yes. And that's all I'm saying." Arizona said, filling her plate with food.

"Mmm.." Callie hummed, giving her a sly grin and bumping her shoulder onto her girlfriends.

Conversation continued to flow as they ate their dinner. Carlos caught Callie up on how everyone back in Miami was doing. After all of the kids grew up, most of Callie's family had took off to Miami to live. She was the only one in her family to stay in Seattle. She couldn't imagine living anywhere else, she visited Miami as often as she could, it even felt like a home away from home, but Seattle was and will always be her home.

After dinner, they cleaned up and retired to the family room to discuss the latest news on the trial. Carols sat across from the girls on the other couch and pulled out some papers from his brief case he had brought with him. "I've talked to the lawyers and they informed me that Dave Conley's lawyer told the judge his client wanted to waive his right to a jury trial and seek a bench trial."

"Why would he do that?" Callie asked, leaning back on the couch beside Arizona.

"Well, he complained that, based on the news stories that have been out about this, he felt that people would view him as a rapist and killer. So basically, Because of adverse pretrial news stories, he thinks jurors can't put aside their feelings about the case and won't give him a fair trial, especially after hearing and seeing that you two are both strong, independent and attractive women." Carlos said, pulling some papers from his bag. "Conley is trusting in the judge to give him a fair trial. So, the judge, the defense and your lawyers agreed to waive the jury trial and agreed to hear the case in a bench trial."

"What exactly is a bench trial?" Arizona asked, pulling her legs up on the couch to wrap her arms around them.

"Well, a bench trial occurs when a court case is tried in front of a judge rather than in front of a panel of jury members. In a typical jury trial, the jury serves as the Trier of fact while the judge reviews questions of law and procedure. In a bench trial, however, the judge serves as the Trier of fact in addition to making procedural rulings and evaluating questions of law. As the fact finder in a bench trial, the judge usually listens to the evidence presented by each party and makes a ruling on the factual issues in the case." He said showing them the affidavit papers of Dave Conley's requested bench trial.

"So will we have to testify?" Arizona asked.

"Yes, he will ask you a series of questions, and you just need to answer them openly and honestly. The trail really shouldn't last long. The judge can probably go through all testimonies in approximately one day. Teddy and Alex will also have to go on the witness stand. Derek and Owen and possibly Miranda will have to speak on your condition when you were brought into the hospital. There will be no opening or closing arguments, so the trail really shouldn't last long." he said, closing his brief case back up. "Do you have any questions or anything?"

Looking over to Arizona, "How long before the trial starts?"

"Well, we're looking at the 23rd of February, but it's possible it could get pushed back to the 2nd of March. It could last a week or it could last a month. Just depends on how much information the judge has to rule the case final."

"My parents can come right?" Arizona asked, feeling Callie lean into her.

"Yes, its open court."

"I know, sometimes when someone has to take the stand they have to be held in a separate room, until their name is called right?" Arizona asked, seeing Carlos nod. "Do we? I mean.. I just.. I want to know, if I'm going to have to sit in a room by myself before its my turn to talk to the judge?" she asked feeling Callie's arm slip around the small of her back.

"Normally in bench trials, they're not like that. It's my understanding that you will be seated in the audience until your name is called to take the stand."

"Good.. good." she said leaning into Callie. "I.. don't think my nerves could handle having to be alone before hand."

"Will..ahh.. will he be there?" Callie asked hesitantly.

"Yes, Mija. He will." He said clearing his throat. "He can't hurt you though, either of you, do you hear me?" Seeing both girls nod, he figured they needed some time alone to process the news. "Well if you don't mind, I'm going to go have a cigar down by the water."

"That's fine. Thanks, daddy." She said, watching her father leave the room.

"You okay?" She asked rubbing Arizona's back.

"Yeah, I'm okay, babe. Are you?" She said, turning to sit facing Callie.

"I am. I'm just ready to get this over with, so we can move on with our lives and stop reliving these nights over." She said hugging her blonde girlfriend.

"Me too, baby. Me too..." Arizona said, "Come on, I don't know about you, but I need a huge slice of cheese cake." She said pulling Callie up from her seat and walking into the kitchen.


Waking up Saturday Morning, Callie slipped out of the bedroom and went down stairs to the kitchen to make Arizona breakfast in bed. After cooking the meal, she placed a small vase with a single peach Gerbera Daisey and two plates of banana pancakes and bacon on the breakfast tray with two cups of coffee and made her way back up to their bedroom. Placing the tray on Arizona's nightstand and crawling back into bed. "Arizonaaaa." Callie whispered, nestling her face into the back of Arizona's neck and placing a light kiss.

"Shhh..." Arizona hissed Turing towards Callie, burying her head into her pillow.

"Wake up, Mi Amor." She whispered into her ear.

"Shhh... Arizona is sleeping." She mumbled.

"Well, I'll just have to eat the banana pancakes and bacon sitting on the nightstand then." She said reaching for the tray of food and sitting it on her lap. "Mmm.. So good." She moaned, taking a bite off her plate.

Peaking one eye open, Arizona seen unruly brown hair, cascading down her lovers face. Thinking Callie had never been more beautiful. "You're so beautiful... How did I get so lucky?" She asked leaning up to kiss Callie's lips. "Happy Valentines Day, my baby."

"Mmm... Happy Valentines Day, Love." She said pecking pink lips one more time. "Now, get your cute ass up. I've made one of your favorite breakfasts." She said, taking another bite of her breakfast.

"Mmm.. It's so good." Arizona said taking a few bites of her food.

"So.. What's on the agenda today?" Callie asked. Arizona had told her not to plan anything for today because she was in charge, so Callie willingly obliged.

"Umm.. well after breakfast, I have a little surprise for you and then, we are out of here for the night." She said, sipping her coffee.

"Oh.. So should I pack anything particular?"

"Uh.. No, I've already packed boots and warm clothes for both of us." She winked. Finishing her breakfast, she put her plate on the nightstand and went to the bathroom.

"Come on, Calliope, get up and get your butt ready, we need to get this day started." She said pulling a pair of jeans out of the drawer.

"What do I need to wear? Anything particular?" She asked standing from the bed.

"Nope, I'm just wearing jeans and a blouse."

"I'll be ready in ten." She said walking up to Arizona. "Meet you downstairs?"

"Sounds good. Gives me a few minutes to get your surprise ready." She said, leaning in for a slow tender kiss. "Hurry down."

Changing into her clothes and freshening up. Callie made her way downstairs. Seeing Arizona sneaking around, with what looked to be a rope. "Whatcha got there." She said sneaking up on her girlfriend and wrapping her arms around her waist.

"Oh, Calliope. You scared me, I didn't hear you come down." She said throwing the rope over across the room to land on a chair. "I was just getting your surprise ready. Come on, you want to see it?" Arizona asked giddily.

"Yes." she smiled at her girlfriend. "Where is it?" She asked looking around the room.

"It's in the garage. Come on." She said pulling her across the house to the garage door that was right off the kitchen. "Wait.." She said holding onto the door knob. "I know we've not talked about this, but I remember you telling me on our first date, that you've always wanted this and I wanted to get it for you, I hope you like it." She said, opening the door and walking through. "Just wait here." She said as the entered the garage. "I'll go get it." She said walking over to get the surprise out of the box. "Close your eyes."

Hearing Arizona shuffle around in the garage, she could have sworn she heard Arizona whispering to someone or something. "Who are you talking to?" She laughed.

"Keep your eyes closed, Calliope." She said walking up to her.

"Their closed, their closed. Now what is it?" She asked impatiently. Feeling something tickle her face causing her to flinch. Then she felt something wet nudge her nose, hearing a loud bark, her eyes popped open in surprise. Gasping, "Arizona... You remembered?" She asked, taking the black, white and gray colored dog from her girlfriends arms. "You got me a Siberian Husky." She said with a huge grin, she was in awe of the new pup and her amazing girlfriend.

"Of course, I remembered. I had a patient come in a month ago talking about his new puppies, and his mom said that their husky had puppies and I was telling her how my cute girlfriend has always wanted one and she offered to sell me this little guy and I couldn't pass him up." She said rubbing his head.

"Aww.. Thank you baby, I love him." She said kissing Arizona, then kissing the dogs head. "Here, hold him a second." She said handing him to Arizona and running into the house to go downstairs to the basement. This was the only place she knew Arizona refused to go to in the house. She knew basements creeped her girlfriend out, so this was the perfect spot to hid her gift without her finding it.

Coming back out of the house into the garage, she sat the big box down in front of her girlfriend. "Here. Open it." Callie said taking her pup back from Arizona and giving her a sly look.

Lifting the lid to the box, Arizona yelped in surprise. "Calliope... You didn't." she giggled. "What are we going to do with these little guys?" She said, lifting the white and liver colored Brittany Spaniel puppy from the box. "We spend way too much time together. We are always getting each other the same gifts. First the necklaces on our first date, and now these guys." She laughed when he licked her face. "I can't believe you remembered."

"It's great, but it's kinda creepy." Callie said, hugging her new dog. "And of course I remembered."

"How are we going to keep two dogs in the house?"

"Well, I've been thinking about that since I had the idea of getting you this big guy." She said rubbing the Brittany's head. "I've been having Karev build a dog lot out in the back yard while we've been gone to work.. Which by the way this." She said, holding up her dog. "explains why he built it bigger than I asked for."

"Yeah, I told him what I had got you and he said he'd build a pin to keep him in. So I guess he took it upon himself to make it big enough for two."

"Yea, I figured we could keep them inside the house, but when we leave we can put them out in the lot." Callie said walking back into the house with Arizona and the two pups.

"Mhmm. I'm sure they would destroy the house if we left them inside alone."

"So what are we going to name these guys." Callie asked, sitting down on the living room floor with Arizona and the dogs.

"Well, I kinda already have a name for yours." Arizona said, watching the two dogs play together.

"What is it?" Callie asked, patting the floor hard getting the pups attention.

"River... But if you don't like it, you can name him whatever you want.."

"River... I like it. It reminds me of my favorite place and person." She winked. Reaching to pick up her dog up, raising him above her head, "What do you think? Are you a River?" She asked him, receiving a cute bark in return. "I think he likes it." She laughed. "He's got his Mama's blue eyes.. Yes he does." Callie said to the dog.

"Well, this one here's got his Mami's chocolate brown eyes doesn't he?" Arizona said, nuzzling her face into the dogs face.

"Charlie."

"Huh." She said sitting the rowdy dog back down.

"Charlie. I've been calling him Charlie since I found out I was getting him."

"Charlie.. Hmm.. Do you look like a Charlie?" Arizona said bending down in front of his face. "Huh.. Do ya?" She playfully spoke to the dog, getting a bark and several licks to the face. "I think he does." She giggled.

"Charlie and River.. two strong manly names." Callie said, picking up both the pups and placing them on her lap. "Listen Charlie and River, you two guys are the men of this house now. Don't make us regret it.. We don't want you leaving the toilet seat up and leaving your empty beer bottles all over the family room.. Oh, and mama and I definitely don't want your tiny hairs left in the sink after you shave... Capeesh?" She said. Getting to loud yelps, before the dogs playfully attacked each other again.

"My turn to be held." Arizona said, crashing her body into Callie's, causing them both to fall to the floor. "Thank you for Charlie, Calliope." She said smiling into a passionate kiss. "You. Are. Amazing... I absolutely love my present, baby."

"Best. Valentines. Day. Ever." Callie giggled as Arizona's lips began to explored her neck. "Thank you for River, Arizona." She said rolling her head to the side to give Arizona more room to roam.

"You're very welcome, honey." She said licking up the hollow spot beneath Callie's ear, causing her to moan, before moving in for a slow kiss. Pulling back slightly, Arizona licked red lips, seeking permission, causing Callie's mouth to open slightly, giving Arizona just enough room to enter her mouth. And just as the kiss was growing more hotter and more passionate both dogs decided to join in on the fun. River began licking Arizona's face, while Charlie licked Callie's, causing both to scrunch their faces and laugh.

"Oookay, they put a stop to that." Arizona giggled, before sitting and straddling Callie's lap.

"Little Cock blockers." Callie growled.

Laughing at Callie, "I don't think that's what you'd call it in this case, but okay." She giggled.

"Come on, I have one last thing for you." Callie said, pushing Arizona to the side and standing from the floor.

"Calliope..." Arizona squealed, darting up from the floor. "What is it?" She asked giddily. She loved when Callie spoiled her, not that she expected it all the time. It's just that Callie always put a lot of thought into her gifts and it made Arizona feel that much more special, more needed.

"Come on, it's out back. I'll show you." She said pulling Arizona through the house and grabbing their jackets. "Come on boys." She yelled at the dogs, patting her leg for them to follow. Watching them come barreling through the house, "Look, their just too cute together." She laughed.

"Just like us." Arizona purred.

"Mmhmm... Just. Like. Us. I love you."

"I love you too, baby." She said kissing red lips. "Now, show me what ya got. We need to get a move on."

"Okay, come on." She said walking through French doors to their back yard. "It's over in the corner here." She pointed over to a tarp covering something.

"That's.. that's the supplies that are left over for the dog pin?" She said confused as they got closer to the tarp.

"Umm... No." She laughed

"Yeah, Karev said that was the left over fencing and stuff." Arizona said as they came to a stop.

"It's not." She laughed. "I had told Alex that if you started questioning it to make something up... And he did a pretty good job." She giggled. "Okay." Callie said taking a corner of the tarp in her hand. "This goes back to our day at the carnival when you told me that you've always wanted a Brittany." Callie said.

Trying to think about what else she had mentioned she couldn't come up with anything else. "I don't kno..." She gasped. "Calliope... You.." She said staring at her girlfriend wide eyed. "You got me chickens?" She asked, remembering she said she had a weird thing for Chickens.

"Well, yes and no."

"What do you mean yes and no?"

"Well, I didn't know what kind of chickens you would want, so I had a coop built for you. And in a few weeks we can go pick out some chickens at the chicken farm in Tacoma."

"Ooo.. Can I get Silkie Chickens?" She said happily squeezing her hands together in front of her trying to tame her excitement.

"If my baby wants Silkie Chickens, she will get Silkie Chickens.. whatever you want, babe." Callie laughed. "So I did well?" she asked, hugging Arizona.

"Mmm.. You did exceptionally well. Thank you, Calliope."

"You're welcome, Love. Now, come one. Lets get this day started." she said, kissing Arizona's forehead.

"Yes, Lets." She said walking back to the house where the dogs were playing by the patio door. "Come on, guys." She said to the dogs while opening the door.

"Wait.. what about the boys? We can't take them with us, can we?"

"Callie, you think I've done all this planning, and not think about River? Of course they can come."

Thinking about what it is that Arizona had planned, Callie was clueless unless they were going camping. "We.. uhh.. Are we going camping at the river?" she asked.

"Calliope.. it's the middle of winter? Do you really think I'm going to have you suffer through cold like that. If so, you really underestimate me." She said, pulling the suitcase she packed out of the closest in the living room. "But.. it's as close to camping we can get right now." she winked. "Lets go, everything's packed and ready, I just need to grab an extra food bowl and put the boys in the carrier and we're out of here."

Arizona turned down an old dirt road to their destination. "Okay, this is starting to get a little creepy." Callie said, looking around. They had been driving for an hour and a half, and she had no clue where they were. All she know was they were out in the middle of no where, and Arizona still driving.

"Would you just calm down, I know where I'm going. You'll love it." she said, Pulling into a driveway a few minutes later, "We're here."

"A cottage?" she said looking to a smiling Arizona. "It looks like something out of a scary movie. It's so small… and creepy." she said in disgust.

"Callie, this coming form someone who can sit up all night long watching horror movies without batting an eye. And THIS creeps you out?" she said turning off the jeep.

"Well, maybe I've watched one to many to be out here in the middle of no where and might I add, by ourselves." she whined. "Are we seriously staying here?" She asked, seeing Arizona pull the keys out of the ignition.

"Callie." she sighed, rubbing her face with her hands. She really thought Callie would love this. "I've really put a lot of thought and planning in this. Something we could do and have River with us.. And now Charlie..." She said getting out of the jeep. Taking the suitcase out of the back of the jeep and letting the dogs out of the carrier to run around. "Will you just please… just… forget it." she huffed, feeling defeated and a bit hurt. Like her surprise wasn't up to par for Callie.

Searching her pockets for the key to the cottage, she unlocked the door. Entering the house she placed their suitcase in the corner of the room just as Callie was entering the house with the dogs.

"Come on, Charlie." Arizona said quietly to her dog, but he just stood beside Callie. River on the other hand came running up to her.

"Arizona.."

"Just…. save it, Callie. We'll go home." she said to her as she walked into the bathroom locking herself and River inside. She sunk to the floor leaning up against the tub as River crawled in her lap to be loved on.

Sighing, Callie didn't mean to hurt Arizona's feelings with her stupid whining. She knew Arizona spent a lot of time planning their day and the least she could do was enjoy it. She was only being honest with Arizona about the place creeping her out, because they were so far away from anything. It kind of made her feel like she did right before her attack in the alley. She felt like someone was watching her, but she knew she was just being paranoid and it caused her to act like a little brat to her girlfriend, on Valentines day no less. "Damn it." she said walking to the sofa. Picking Charlie up "I think Mama's upset with Mami, Charlie." she said leaning back on the couch. She figured she'd give Arizona a few minutes to herself before she tried to talk to her.

Watching the pup jump down off her lap, he went and stood in front of the closed bathroom door, raising his ears like he was trying to hear what was going on inside. He started barking like crazy when he saw a shadow move under the door, causing Callie to walk up to him. "Arizona?" she knocked lightly on the door. "Please let me in, honey."

Hearing Callie knock on the door, Arizona wouldn't answer. She had been excited about this day, and to have Callie whine about her surprise hurt her. "Please, just… Go, wait out in the jeep, Callie.. I'll be out in a minute..." she said wiping the tears that fell from her face.

River kept looking back to the door where Charlie was barking to get in the room. He sensed something wasn't quiet right. So he crawled up Arizona's chest, and nuzzled his face into blonde hair. "No… I'm not going outside. Let me in, please." she said, hearing the hurt in Arizona's voice. "I'm sorry, babe. Please come out."

Reaching up to unlock the door, Arizona settled back against the tub, bringing her knee's up to her chest she staring a hole in the floor. Hearing Callie turn the door knob and enter the room, she wiped her eyes, while Charlie and River attacked each other playfully.

Seeing Arizona crying broke Callie's heart, but knowing she was the cause of her tears hurt worse. "Arizona.." Callie whispered, sitting down in front of her girlfriend on the floor. "I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, baby." she said, trying to get Arizona to look at her. "Look at me." She said lowering her head down only to have Arizona close her eyes.

"It's okay.. you don't like it.. you're just being so very honest." she said turning her head to the side.

"No.. no.. I do.. I love it, Arizona." she said, lifting her girlfriends chin up. "I'm sorry.. please don't cry." she said wiping the last of the tears from her face. "I can't stand to see you cry, especially knowing I caused your tears. Come here." she said pulling Arizona into her lap. "I'm sorry. I'm not trying to make an excuse for my bitchiness earlier. But I was feeling creeped out, because I got this strange feeling that came over me, just like I had before the attack. I was just thinking we were so far away from anything, no one around for miles and I was just letting my mind get carried away. I'm sorry." she said, caressing Arizona on the back.

"That hurt." Arizona said wrapping her arms and legs around Callie, burying her head in her neck. "You made me feel like it was a terrible surprise."

"I know.. I didn't mean too.. I promise." she said kissing Arizona's hair. "And I don't want to leave.. I want to stay. Please? I just need to get over the weirded-out feeling. Its nothing against you or what you've done for me today.. This place is really great."

"Why didn't you just tell me you felt like that, instead of bitching and moaning about everything."

"Cause I'm a brat.. or maybe its because I'm getting ready to start my period… I don't know" she said, receiving a laugh from her girlfriend. "But I do know that I'm so so sorry, Arizona. I didn't mean it bad and I don't want you to ever think I do not appreciate anything and everything you do for me. Because I do.. I love and appreciate everything you do for me, from this romantic gesture, to the way you look at me." she said, kissing pink lips slowly. Quickly turning more needed, just as the pups came running through the door jumping on the couple.

"They're worse than kids… just when the going gets good.. They have to run in and stop it." Arizona huffed, leaning her forehead on Callie's.

"They are." Callie laughed. "This was a great idea for a Valentines Day surprise." she said, brushing Arizona's hair out of her face. "And I hope we can continue with it… whatcha say?" pulling back out of Arizona's arms, Callie picked up the pups and brought them towards her face then turned them so they all were looking at Arizona. "Please Mama.. Can we stay?"

"How can I say no to those three faces." she said kissing each one on the nose receiving two wet kisses from the puppies on her checks.

"What the hell.." Callie said. Shrugging, she licking Arizona's lips similar to the way the dogs did.

"Really?" she giggled.

"They did it."

"Come on. I need to get the bags and the cooler out of the jeep."

"Yey!" Callie said to the puppies.

"Do not encourage them, Calliope." Arizona scolded playfully.

The day went on like nothing had happened earlier. The girls snuggled up by the fire with their new puppies, talking and whispering words of love throughout the day to each other. Just content with being in each others arms.

"You getting hungry?" Arizona asked.

"Yes, I'm starving.. But.. We didn't stop at the grocery store.. and I know there is no way we can get delivery out here."

"Calliope.. really.. you have to stop underestimating me." she said, standing from the floor. "Come on my boys.. are you hungry?" she said walking over to their dish bowls and feeding them their dinner.

"Okay," Callie said walking into the kitchen with Arizona. "What surprises do you have up your selves now?" Callie purred, wrapping her arms around Arizona's waist.

"Well.. I'm kind of creating our first night together."

"Ohh yea?" She said, nestling her face in Arizona's neck.

"Mmhmm.. since the bedroom had a skyroof and we can see stars... I thought we could roast some weenies on the fire.. and eat hot dogs and s'mores in bed underneath the stars."

"Are you serious right now?"

"Um.. Yea.. do you.. have something else in mind?" Arizona asked hesitantly. She didn't want to have another argument.

"No.. no. It's absolutely perfect.. I.. I couldn't have picked a better dinner, Arizona. You are amazing. I could have never came up with this. It's beyond perfect." She said as Arizona turned in her arms.

Seeing Callie was sincere, Arizona relaxed in her arms. "It's not much.. I mean.. If someone told me a year ago that I'd be making hot dogs for Valentines Day dinner with my girlfriend. I'd laugh in their face.. But..."

Placing her finger over Arizona a mouth, stopping her mid sentence. "..But it's everything." Callie said softly kissing pink lips. "It's special to us."

"Mmhmm. Very special. I love you so much, Calliope." She said, pulling Callie in for a passionate kiss.

"I love you too, Arizona." Callie said, as the dogs came running up to them. "

"Is there like some kinda puppy radar that goes off every time we kiss? Those two are definitely sleeping in the living room tonight."

"Agreed." Callie said leaning down to pet the pups.

"I'm going to roast some hot dogs. I'm starving." She said, squeezing Callie's butt. "Bring the mustard and buns with ya." She said carrying the hot dogs and roasting stick to the fireplace in the living room.

Arizona roasted the hot dogs while Callie tried to wrangle the two pups up and put to bed in the dog bed Arizona had bought for River. She really did think to bring everything. Finally getting them settled down, she and Arizona made their way into the bedroom to eat and enjoy the stars in the privacy of the comfy bed.

"Dinner was delicious babe, thank you." Callie said laying down on the bed.

"You're welcome." Arizona said, rolling on top of Callie. "Thank you."

"For what?" Callie asked as Arizona grabbed her hands and held them down on the bed above her head.

"For Charlie.. my chicken coop.. And for just being you." She said with a kiss.

"Anything for you Mi Amor." She said leaning her head up to capture pink lips.

"Anything?"

"Mmhmm.."

"Make love to me, Calliope." Arizona whispered in Callie's ear before biting down on the lob, causing Callie to moan out in pleasure.

Spreading her legs so Arizona's body could settle in between, Callie pulled her in for a deep passionate kiss. Hooking her leg over Arizona's, Callie quickly flipped them over. "Whoa." Now hovering above Arizona, she laid soft tender kisses along her jaw line and down her neck.

Rolling her neck to the side, Arizona's hands immediately went to the hem of Callie's shirt. "Off.. Now. I want to see you." She said as Callie raised up so Arizona could pull her shirt off along with her bra.

"You too.." Callie said, helping Arizona raise up. "I want to feel you, baby." She said throwing Arizona's shirt behind her, reaching behind her girlfriend she flick her wrist and Arizona's bra was released and slung to the floor. Cupping two beautiful mounds, Callie squeezed Arizona's breasts, causing Arizona to moan in pleasure. "You are so beautiful." She said, leaning down to kiss and suck her right breast, teasing the other with her free hand.

"Mmm... Oh god."

Raising up to look Arizona in the eyes, "Calliope will do just fine, babe." She giggled. As she kissed swollen pink lips.

"I love you."

"Te Amo, baby."

Hearing Callie speak Spanish always drove Arizona wild. Running her hands down Callie's back, while her girlfriend explored down her neck and chest again. "Mmmm.. So good baby." She panted.

Callie took her time, slowly exploring each and every square inch of Arizona's upper body. "I need you." Arizona moaned.

Looking up at Arizona, Callie seen the want and need in her eyes. Sitting up on her knees, she slid Arizona's panties down her legs. Making her way back up her legs, kissing every inch. Callie's lips finally met the crease of Arizona's thigh. Kissing along the crease, Callie did the exact same to the other, teasing Arizona in the process.

Bucking her hips in Callie's face, Arizona tried to find some friction for her thriving clit. "Please, Callie..." She breathed. As she felt hot breath right where she needed her girlfriends lips most. "Oh, god..." She moaned, feeling Callie place tender kisses on her throbbing member.

"You. Are. So. Beautiful. Mi. Amor." Callie spoke in between light kisses

Grabbing the back of Callie's head, Arizona pressed her face into her core. "Less talky, more licky." She husked. Feeling Callie laugh into her center sent a vibrating sensation that caused tinges of pleasure all throughout her body. "Fuck.. Callie, please." She moaned. Feeling Callie take a long swipe of her tongue through her folds. "Jesus..."

Running her tongue over Arizona's wet folds, Callie couldn't get enough of her taste. "Mmm.. You're so wet baby." She said, running her tongue around Arizona's entrance and back up again to circle her clit.

"Only for you, baby... Only you can get me like this." Arizona whispered. Reaching her hands down to find Callie's. Needing to feel the contact, she laced their fingers together. "Oh yes.. Right there.. Don't stop... Don't ever stop.."

Looking up at her girlfriend as she sucked on her clit, she saw Arizona suck her bottom lip in her mouth and bit down. Needing to taste her lips, Callie slowly made her way back up Arizona's body, slowly kissing up her torso until she finally reached swollen pink lips. "I love you."

Cupping Callie's face, "I love you too." Arizona's said, seeing nothing but pure love in those brown eyes as Callie crashed their lips together roughly. Feeling Callie's fingers collect wetness on her folds she felt Callie circle her entrance, sliding one finger slowly inside, then adding another. "Yessss..." She hissed. Wanting Callie to feel the same, she slide Callie's panties off and ran her finger through dark curls.

"Mmm..." Callie moaned into the kiss, encouraging Arizona on. "Fuck me, Arizona. Fuck me hard." Callie said. Grinding her center on Arizona's hand as she thrusted into her girlfriend.

"No... Mmm... Tonight's about love.. So ...I'm going.. to make love.. to you. Baby... Oh yes.. Right there..." She said as she ran her finger slowly around Callie's clit. "You feel so good baby."

"Mmm.. So do you... So good babe." She hissed. "Oh god." She moaned, feeling Arizona's fingers explore her folds. "Inside, now..."

Obliging Callie, Arizona's fingers slide inside easily. "Calliope... Your so wet.."

"Oh.. God... Fuck.." She said, hearing Arizona's words. "It's you Ari..zona. Shit... All I have... To do.. Is look at you.. And I have come dripping down my legs. Do you know how hard it is to see you at work..." She panted, as they both thrusted into each other. "...and not run to the closest room to finger myself. I want you in me 24/7. Do you know how mad that drives me?"

"Calliope! Your mouth... I like it." She giggled. If she wasn't already so turned on she would be now, just hearing how bad Callie wanted her all the time. The feeling was mutual. Arizona had never felt this kind of connection with anyone ever in her life. "You know.. The first night I met you.." Seeing Callie nod, "I had to fuck myself as soon as I got back to my tent because having your hands on my.. Having you hold me... Almost had me coming on the spot... I knew I loved you.. from the first moment I saw you.." She panted. Seeing a tear slip from Callie's eye. "I love you baby, no matter what happens.. I'll always love you soo much." She said wiping Callie's tear away with her free hand.

"Me too.. me too.."

"Oh god.. Almost there baby.." Arizona panted.

"I'm gonn... I'm.. Yessss.. Mmmm.. Arizona.. Oh god.. Yesss baby,.. Harder."

"I'm.. fuck... I'm coming... Cal.. Ohh Callioppppeeee."

"Arizonaaaaaaa." They both yelled out at the same time.

Callie collapsed on her girlfriend to catch her breath. "Calliope?"

"Mmm.. Yes, baby?" Callie raised her head to look at her love. Seeing Arizona turn her head she looked in the same direction. Seeing both dogs had came into the room, having their front paws on the mattress looking at their owners. "Oh god..." She laughed, pulling the cover up over their bodies. "Happy Valentines Day, baby."

"Happy Valentines Day."


"Hey, Calliope." Arizona whispered after a few more rounds of love making.

"Hmm?"

"You wanna?"

"Really?" Callie asked, too tired to move. "You've not had enough?" Turning her head to the side to look at her girlfriend, she seen her shake her head no. "Seriously.."

"Come on, Calliope.. please…."

"I can't.. I'm too tired… you have wore me out, Arizona."

"Come on.. I know you want it.." She purred, running her hands down caramel skin.

"I do.. I really really do, but I'm too tired..."

Sticking out her bottom lip to pout, "But you make the best s'mores." Arizona whined.

"You're killing me, battleship." Callie groaned, throwing the covers off her body to go make the treat for her girlfriend. "These s'mores better be worth it." She said, feeling Arizona smack her bare ass as she stood from the bed.


I picked these particular dogs, because I had a Brittany Spaniel when I was younger, and they're the best pet to have and I've ALWAYS wanted a Husky.
