SURPRISE! Yeah.. I need some love after last nights episode! MerDer was my first ship and I am devastated about Derek's death! I'm really at a loss for words. Poor Mer, I can't stand seeing her hurting. :(
I figured some Calzona goodness couldn't hurt. I hope this new chapter helps get you all outta the sad Grey's funk, and you can help by leaving awesome reviews to get me out of my heartbreak!
PREVIOUSLY: Hearing her wife say that, reminded Arizona that she needed to address something now before this went any further. "Stop." She paused. "Can we talk a minute? Before you go any further, I need to talk to you." Arizona stopped her.
Chapter 94
"Uhh.." Callie looked around. "Yeah, I guess." She said, worried she said something to upset her wife. "Did I do something wrong?" She asked, confused.
"Take me somewhere so I can see
you for a minute."
"Okay." Callie lead her out of the nursery and down the hall to their bedroom. "Is something wrong?" She asked as they walked into the room. "Because I was all set to show you something and then.."
"Yeah." Arizona took the blindfold off her head.
"What?"
"You said something that I know you've thought about in the past. I don't know if you have been thinking about it lately, but I know I have. I don't want you to just feel like this baby's mom. You ARE my baby's mom." Arizona led her to the bed.
"Arizona." Callie sat down at the foot of the bed.
"No." She stood in front of the brunette. "I don't want you to think any different. You are going to be a mommy just as much as I am. I don't want you to just feel like it, I want you to know it."
"I know." Callie nodded. "I do." And she did, but Callie knew in today's society she would come in contact with people trying to say that she isn't.
"Well.. since that's cleared up, I will tell you one of your Christmas presents I got for you."
"Okay."
"I know that even though you know this is your baby, somewhere in the back of that beautiful head of yours, you have some doubts. Doubts that are understandable. Doubts that aren't placed there by me, but by the world. And I want to take away any and all doubts that you or anyone else may have." She sat down on her wife's lap. "You have your dad to thank for this, but I asked him do it." Arizona shrugged. "As soon as this baby is born, she will be legally yours too. All we'll have to do is sign the papers, then you will have every right to her as I do."
"Really?" Callie looked up with tears in her eyes.
"Yeah. It's not that I don't already know you are her mommy. I just don't want you to have to worry, Calliope. I know you never have to question what I think, but in time, I'm sure someone will come along that will try to question you and your place in her life. And they may try to make you feel like you're less than what you are, but you'll know the truth."
"You don't know how much this means to me, Arizona." She hugged her wife. "You have never once made me feel anything less than this baby's mom. But I do.. did worry." She corrected. "That if something were to happen and you weren't able to be there, whether you were at work or out of town, that they wouldn't let me see her in the hospital."
"They have no choice now."
Nodding her head. "A piece of paper doesn't make me a mom though. It just gives me rights." She shrugged. "My love for her is what will make me a mom. I am this baby's mommy and you're her mama. And at the end of the day the only thing that matters is that you and her know that I love you with every beat of my heart."
"We know, baby." Arizona hugged the brunettes head to her chest. "We know." She kissed the top of her head.
"But I will say, the paper is the cherry on top." She hugged her back. "Thank you, honey."
"You're welcome. Now can I see my surprise?"
"You really want to see it?" Callie laughed.
"Yes please." Arizona stood and clapped her hands together in excitement.
"Come on." She shook her head and walked out of the room.
"What about the blindfold?"
"You don't need it." She took her wife's hand. "I wanted to do something really special for you and the baby and I think you're going to be blown away." She smiled. "Ready?"
"Yes." Arizona stood outside of the nursery.
"Close your eyes." She said, making her wife shut her eyes. Opening the door, Callie took the blondes hand and lead her into the middle of the room. Standing behind her, she placed her hands over her shut eyes. "Okay, first I want to say, don't be mad. I know we said that we'd decorate the nursery together, but you can't be in the room when painting and stuff because of the fumes, so I took matters into my own hands. If you don't like it we can change it."
"What did you do?" She tried to see through the cracks of her wife's fingers but they were too tight.
"See for yourself." Callie said, dropping her hands to let her wife look around the room.
Opening her eyes, Arizona gasped when she saw the finished nursery. "Calliope." She was marveled by her soundings, turning around in a circle to get the whole feel of the room. She placed her hand over her fast beating heart. "What did you do?" She asked studying the painted mural on the wall behind the baby bed. The room had a calming feel to it, Callie had painted three walls a pale pink color and on the fourth wall she had hand painted a Bambi mural.
"I decorated the room." She shrugged.
Arizona didn't know what to awe over first, the furniture or the wall. "I.. I.. thought you said no Disney?" She said, not being able to take her eyes off the wall. Walking up, she ran her hand over the mural.
"I did, but I changed my mind."
"It's beautiful. Who did you find to do this? This is so much better than at the clinic?" The blonde asked, stepping back and taking in the room.
"I did it."
"You did this?" Arizona turned and pointed at the wall behind her.
"Yeah."
"Wow. It's great." She took her wife's hands and kissed her knuckles. "I didn't know I married an artist."
"Steady hands.. what can I say." She shrugged.
"Callie." Shaking her head, she couldn't believe her wife had done all of this by herself. "Is that?" She pointed, her eyes landing on the chair by the window.
"Yeah, it's the double rocker you wanted." Callie moved behind her and wrapped her up in her arms. "I've bought everything you loved."
"I thought you said it cost too much."
"I did, but then I realized nothing cost too much for my lady."
"I just don't even know what to say." She said, finally noticing the details on the baby bed. "You bought the bed I wanted too? You said that was a definite no."
"I did, but after some research on it, I found out that it had nothing but great reviews."
"Oh, Calliope." Arizona turned and hugged her wife around the neck. "It's perfect." She kissed her on the side of the head. "This is why you've been running yourself ragged?"
"Yeah."
"I don't know what to say that I haven't already. You're absolutely amazing. Thank you so much baby." She pulled back and kissed her wife on the lips.
"You're welcome. You want to try the rocker out?"
"Yes please." Arizona walked by the little night stand next to the chair and ran her fingers over the edge. "Where did you find all this Bambi stuff?" She asked, turning the little Bami lamp on.
"You know the baby store on elm.. that you've been sneaking off too?"
"You knew about that?" She asked shyly.
"Mmhmm.. Dan told on you." Callie laughed.
"Dan?"
"He was the sales clerk. I went and made sure everything was set to be delivered yesterday and he told me about the changing table you had your eye on a few weeks ago."
"Ahh.." Arizona nodded. "I went off on him a week ago because he kept following behind me like I was going to steal something."
"Yeah, he told me. You almost made him wet his pants I think." Callie laughed when she recalled Dans story.
"So, I'm curious, why Bambi?"
"Well to be honest, I think Bambi's the cutest and it makes me think of the river and that makes me think of you."
"Why does it make you think of the river?"
"When we went for a walk at the river the first time, you saw that deer and a rabbit." Callie laughed. "And you said it was Bambi and Thumper."
"Oh..I remember." Arizona blushed. "It's perfect Callie." She said, sitting down in the rocker. "Mmm.. this is comfy." She said, kicking her feet up on the foot stool. "Join us." She patted the cushion beside her.
"I'm glad you like it." Callie said, sitting down and laying her arm across her wife's shoulder.
"Calliope, I can't believe you did this." She said, resting her head on her wife's shoulder. "I have no words." She was still shocked her wife had done all of this without her having the slightest clue.
"You don't have to say anything."
"Is that?" Arizona raised up. "Is that Bambi bedding too?"
"Yep. This room is Bambi through and through." She chuckled.
"I couldn't have done a better job." She sat back into her wife's arms. "Thank you." She snuggled into her side.
"You're welcome." Callie wrapped her arms around her. "I'm just glad the hard parts finished." She rocked them. "Now we just need clothing and the necessities and we'll be ready for her."
"I'm sure our parents will load us up tomorrow with enough diapers and wipes until she's potty trained" Arizona sighed contently in her wife's arms. They had told their family they didn't need gifts this year. With the baby on the way, they were more than happy with necessities they needed for her.
"She's going to be one spoiled little girl."
"And that's just by her mommy."
"Oh I'm sure mama will have a big hand in that." Callie countered.
"Maybe."
They both fell into a silence as they rocked back and forth in the chair. Both thinking about how their life would be once their baby arrived. Callie had thought the blonde had fallen asleep after a while when she noticed her slow breathing.
"What about the name Charlee?" Arizona whispered, breaking her wife out of her thoughts.
"I thought you was asleep."
"No, I've just been thinking."
"I like Charlee, but don't you think it's kind of odd we already have a dog named Charlie?"
"Yeah, but as much as it will kill me when something happens to him, he won't be around forever."
"Well, we'll put it on the list with the others. I think it's a cute girl name." Callie said as she combed her fingers through her wife's hair. "I want to paint her name on the door or the wall when we finally decide."
"That would be cute." Arizona buried her head in her wife's chest. "You ready to head downstairs by the fire?" She kissed the bare skin.
"Ready if you are."
"Callie." Arizona yelled from the kitchen. She needed a snack before they got to her favorite Christmas festivity. "Do you want anything?" She asked, eating some of the finger foods left from their little party they had with their friends.
"Are there any of those little meatballs left?" She asked just as Arizona threw one in her mouth.
"I just ate the last one." She said, shyly.
"Arizona, there was a whole bowl left."
"I was hungwy." She said with a mouth full. "Besides that was not a whole bowl."
"Good thing I hid some from you then huh?" Callie laughed, walking to the fridge she pulled the small container from the back of the shelf.
"God I love you." The blonde grabbed the bowl from her wife.
"You only love me for my balls."
"They're good boobs." Arizona wiggled her eyebrows as Callie came closer to her.
"We were talking about my balls." Callie said, taking the bowl back.
"And I was talking about your boobs." Arizona slowly lifted her wife's thin t-shirt as the brunette ate a meatball.
"What are you doing." She looked down at her wife who was bent over placing a kiss under the swell of her boob.
"Nothing." She mumbled against caramel skin as she slowly kissed her way up to the Latinas exposed breasts.
"Sure doesn't fe..feel like nothing." Chills went all down her body when her wife flattened her wet tongue over her nipple. It didn't matter how many times Arizona had her tongue on her body, every single time felt like the first and it never seemed to fail sending waves of pleasure straight to her core.
Arizona loved how her wife's body reacted every time her lips were on her. Grinning when chills popped up all over the brunettes body, she moved over to her other mound and repeated her actions, getting an appreciation moan in return from Callie. Deciding to be a little evil, she kissed the space between her breasts, then leaning back and flicking her wife's nipples with her fingers. Giggling, she decided she had enough fun and pulled the brunettes shirt back down. "I'm going to bed." She quickly kissed her lips. "Night."
She left the brunette standing there a wanton woman. "Oh hell no." Callie said, throwing the still full bowl in the sink. "Damn it." she growled. "Why do you always do the to me." She whined, storming into the living room where she thought her wife disappeared too. "Arizona?" She looked around, quickly taking her shirt and shorts off, leaving her naked and exposed.
Arizona was standing in the corner of a dimly lit room as she watched her wife undress. Lately she loved getting her wife all turned on, only to leave her wanting more. She seemed to get a kick out of her wife's sexual frustrations.
"Arizona, wherever you are you better get your ass in here and finish what you started." Callie said. "Or I'll bring out my little friend and finish it myself." She bent down to pull the covers back from their makeshift bed.
The blonde was just about to pounce her wife until the mentioned of her little friend, so she decided to stay back and see if Callie would really follow through with her threat.
She had made a few of those threats lately when Arizona would leave her hot and bothered. Saying the next time Arizona left her high and dry she would bring out some of the gifts they had received for their bachelorette party that they had never used. So Arizona curiously stood halfway behind the wall in the dark foyer to see if her wife would follow through this time even though it was taking all she had to not take her wife right now.
Callie knew Arizona was testing her to see if she would really bring the toy out. She wanted too, if it was just for the simple fact of teasing the blonde just like she did her, but she was nervous. She had never used anything like that before and she was slightly embarrassed. Deciding to throw caution to the wind, the brunette rushed upstairs and searched through their closet for their little red friend. After finding the item she quickly returned downstairs again hoping to see her wife waiting on her. "Where the hell did you go?" She muttered to herself as she walked over to the bed and laid down.
Arizona had moved over to the chair in the back of the living room as she watched her wife lie down on the bed she had made for them. Deciding she couldn't wait any longer, she stood up from the chair and slowly made her was closer into the light as Callie made herself comfy in the bed. "Roll over." She made her presence known.
Hearing her wife's voice, Callie looked back to find her wife standing near the sofa. "Where have you been?"
"No talking." Arizona said, pulling off her shirt and shorts. "Now I said roll over on your stomach." She bent down and took the wand from her wife's hand.
"Arizona... I." Callie hesitated.
"I know, babe." The blonde said, knowing her wife was a little nervous that she now had the vibrator. Besides some handcuffs and lotions, they had never really used toys before and she knew her wife was a little reluctant. "All you have to say is stop, but I'm sure stopping is the last thing that will be on your mind."
"You've?" Callie wondered if her wife had ever did this to anyone else.
"No." Arizona knew what she was getting at. "Just myself in high school. Someone got it for me as a gag gift, but little did they know the gag was on them." She snickered, seeing her wife's face was still a little apprehensive. "If you don't want too we won't." She shrugged.
"No.. I want too."
"Then no more talking. Roll over." Arizona demanded her wife. Grabbing the hand lotion from the end table, She straddled her wife's thighs and sat down. Squirting some lotion on her hands, she rubbed it in to warm it up a tad before she massaged it into her wife's back. "You feel so tense." She said, pushing the heels of her palms into the brunettes back muscles. "You've worked yourself to death lately and I want you to take a step back."
"I wi.."
Smacking her wife's side. "I said no talking, just relax, Calliope." She said, massaging her wife's back. "You've worked so hard at work and you've been doing so much here and then making sure that I'm comfortable, you're forgetting about yourself."
Callie just laid there letting out deep moans, letting her wife know she was listening and enjoying. Arizona was right, she had been running on her last fumes the last few days, but they had the next seven days off from work because of the holidays and she was going to take advantage of her time to rejuvenate and a massage from her wife was a great start.
Spending several minutes massaging Callie, even giving her butt a little attention, Arizona threw the bottle towards the couch. Leaning down, she planted two kisses on the brunettes back dimples before running her tongue up her spine.
"Mmmm.." Callie moaned, feeling her wife's tongue run all the way up her back, sending pleasure waves all through her body.
Giggling, Arizona stopped when she got to her wife's shoulder blades because her stomach kept getting in her way.
"Don't stop." The brunette whined. "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry, but this is so not sexy."
"Why not?"
"Because I'm not as bendy and mobile as I used to be and its kind of awkward now. I can't press my front against your back." She said, sliding off her wife's body to resituate herself halfway on the brunette. "Spread your legs."
Doing what the blonde asked, Callie let out a deep moan that she wasn't even aware of when she felt her wife's breasts press into her back. "No more talking." The blonde whispered, smacking her wife's ass and pressing soft kisses on her freckled shoulder.
The brunette willingly laid there as her wife wrapped her left arm around her and tenderly caressed her body with the other. "I'm going to take you just like this." She whispered as she sucked on her wife's delicate skin underneath her ear. Running her hand down her wife's back, she cupped her wife's butt before she slid her hands further down and grazed her fingertips over her wife's sex. "I find you so miraculous, Calliope." She whispered as she kissed her wife's temple. "Breathtakingly stunning."
Callie felt like putty in her wife's arms, she never knew love could ever feel this good. Being in the arms of someone who holds your heart and who's heart you hold is something indescribable. Closing her eyes, she surrendered her body to her wife.
"Turn on your side." She whispered. Grabbing their play toy, Arizona turned it on and place the tip of it on her wife's nipple causing her wife to hiss at the pleasant feel. "Tell me if you want me to stop okay?" She asked as Callie nodded her head. Grabbing her wife's right leg, she pushed it forward just a tad.
Taking the vibrator, she brought it down behind the brunette and slowly ran it over the Callie's butt before guiding it to her wife's opening. She didn't tease her, she only laid it there gently for her wife to get the feel before she ran the item through her folds. "You okay?"
"Yeah." Callie whispered as she felt the vibration threw her core.
"Feels good doesn't it." She whispered as her wife's breath became ragged.
"Mmhmm." Callie moaned as her wife brought the toy to her clit.
"It's a different kinda feel. Not as good as my touch I hope."
"Uh-Umm. But it's good."
"Shh.. no talking." Arizona kissed the sensitive skin under here ear. "Just relax baby." She said as she began to circle the tip around her wife's throbbing clit. She could tell her wife was getting close already because she was taking in short deep breathes.
Callie felt like she was in heaven when her wife started moving the toy up and down her sex. It was different than what they usually shared, but yet it still felt so good. The brunette was a little tense because she was iffy about the blonde sticking it inside of her, but it was like Arizona was in her head because as soon as the thought crossed her mind again her wife voiced what she questioned.
"I won't put it in you tonight. We'll work up to that some other time if you want too, so relax babe." Arizona whispered, running her tongue from the nape of her wife's neck to the bottom of her ear. Taking the lob in her mouth and sucking on the skin. After she told Callie that, she felt the brunettes body relax completely.
Feeling her wife hit her at just the right spot caused Callie to unconsciously jerk and whimper at the sensation.
Hearing her wife's moans, Arizona knew her wife was close, so she decided to push her over the edge. "Give it to me, Calliope." She said, circling the toy around her wife's clit. "Let go baby." She whispered before sucking the skin on her wife's shoulder.
Callie couldn't stop her body from twitching every time her wife hit her clit, each time the trembles kept getting longer and longer until finally she was seeing stars. Grabbing her wife's hips behind her, Callie let her orgasm take over her body.
"That's right baby.. that's right." Arizona bit down on her wife's shoulder when she let out some loud whimpers. Finally letting up when Callie's breathing became labored, she whispered sweet nothings in her ear to bring her down from her little high. "Was it good?"
Turning around in her wife's arms, Callie nodded her head. "Yeah." She said taking her wife's hand the still held the vibrating toy and bringing it back down to her sex. "Do it again." Callie passionately kissed her wife as the blonde brought her to a state of heightened awareness again.
After using the toy on each other, the couple shared a few more rounds of plain old loving making before collapsing to the bed in exhaustion. "2 a.m. That might be a Christmas record."
"I think so." Arizona said, laying on her back still in her sex filled state. "Merry Christmas, Calliope." She rolled over and cuddled up to her brunette.
"Merry Christmas, Arizona." Callie rolled over to face her wife. "Merry Christmas baby girl." She said, rubbing her wife's stomach.
"Ooh." The blonde chuckled. "She says Merry Christmas, mommy." She said, feeling her daughter kick. "You know, that freaks me out every time I feel her."
"I bet." Callie kissed her on her cheek. "I can't wait to hold her and you in my arms."
"Me too." Arizona sighed, feeling her wife's arms wrap around her. "This is our last Christmas alone."
"It is. Does that make you a little sad?"
"Does that make me a bad mom if I said yes?"
"No." Callie laughed. "I'm sad it's our last, but I'm also excited to start making new Christmas memories with our babies."
"Me too." Arizona nestled her face into her wife's neck. "Just think, in a year from now We'll have a six month old with toys strewn everywhere."
"I'm oddly excited about that." Callie said, lightly running her fingertips over her wife's back. "This time next year there is going to be new toys everywhere and we'll be up late cussing because some toy we got her won't go together correctly." She giggled at the site in her mind.
"Callie?"
"Yeah?"
"Promise me this will never stop." The blonde looked up at her wife.
"What?"
"This." She shrugged. "You and me cuddled by the fire on Christmas Eve night after making love." She said, drawing patters on her wife's chest with her finger. "Even when we have a house full of little feet running around." Arizona never wanted this tradition to end just because they were having children.
"I promise." Callie told her. "Christmas Eve night we'll always be our night.. whether we have one kid or ten, this night will always be ours."
"And I'll always make you and the kids cinnamon rolls the next morning too"
"I love our little traditions." The brunette grinned. "Speaking of, I still don't have my Christmas Pj's."
"No worries." Arizona rolled over and grabbed the box she placed near the couch. It was her turn to pick out their holiday pajamas this year. "I'd never forget." She said, sitting up and handing the wrapped box to her wife to open. "Oh god, next year we'll need three matching pajamas sets instead of two."
"I know, I can't wait." Callie sat up and pulled the sheet up over her exposed chest as her wife did the same. "I also got you a small little something to open tonight." Callie reached for the small boat box under the Christmas tree. "I was going to have you open before we... you know. But I let myself get carried away and forgot. Open it." She handed it to the blonde.
Callie couldn't keep the grin off her face when the blonde unwrapped the gift and opened the top to reveal a new Hustler Magazine. "Oh my god." Arizona dropped her face into her hands. "Why must you embarrass me." She mumbled.
"I didn't do it to embarrass you." Callie laughed, pulling her wife close. "I noticed how much you enjoyed scanning through the book at your mom and dads, so I figured I'd by you one so you can go to the treehouse and read the articles when you need to relax a little." She chuckled.
"I don't need to read the articles when I have the real thing." She chuckled and thanked her wife for the gift. "Maybe after the treehouse is built we can enjoy this out there together." She wiggled her eyebrows.
"Deal, after you have the baby that is. Because you're not climbing in the treehouse nine months pregnant, you might fall."
"Deal." She kissed her neck. "Now open the Pj's. I want to see you in the sexy Mrs. Claus lingerie I bought." She laughed.
"You really are going all out on our last Christmas alone." Callie opened the box and pulled the red and white lingerie piece out.
"I am." The blonde grinned. "How about you put that on and we break our fairly new Christmas record?"
"Deal." Callie leaned in to kiss her wife's lips. "I love you."
"I love you too."

We're getting closer and closer to having that baby! I'm excited to see how it all turns out!
