THANK YOU TO THE GUEST THAT TOOK THE TIME TO RESPOND REGARDING THE WATTPAD QUESTION.
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT TO READ THE STORY.
I'LL BE FINISHING UP SOON AS YOU'LL SEE.
Arizona's POV:
As I stand in our old apartment staring at this beautiful but also broken Latina I can't fight back the tears. I know I said I'd wait for her. I mean I've been waiting for her but how will I cope with things like this? As a doctor and a mother I can't afford another set back. My life has just gotten on track. Before I could answer anything she asks me if I love her.
"Do you love me Arizona?" - How could she even ask me this, she should know this.
"What? Of course I Love YOU!. You are the mother of my children." I tell her.
She starts pacing the floor. Her shoulders are tucked in. She again has a small Spanish rant and I have to calm her down to remind her that our children is in the next room.
"So you love me as the mother of your children, a person who co-parents with you?"
What is Calliope asking me , is she being silly? Why is she asking stupid questions.
"Yes that and I love you as a friend. But most of all I love you as my partner. My partner in crime. The love of my life. I'm in love with you. I've always been in love with you but loving you is so hard and it shouldn't be. That's not what I want for us."
I see her face go bleak. I want to hug her. So I went over to her to hug her but she pushes me away.
"So loving me is hard huh?". She says upset. Her eyes has this little gliter and I know that means that she is fighting back tears.
"Yes and I know you are do not understand what I mean. So just allow me to please explain to you what I mean, without interruption. Can you do that?" - Callie doesn't answer she just nods and I continue.
"Loving you is hard because so much has happened. How can you sleeping with a nurse while I was nowhere to be found make me want to relapse. That means for every little thing that pops up that I don't like I'll have those thoughts. It's not healthy to hate the fact that someone else touched you . I'm always anxious around you because what if I'm not enough. What if I run away again. This time there is three kids involved. I'm so scared to put the dishes in the wrong sink just incase we fight. I'm so scared to disappoint you again that it makes me have panic attacks. I'm so..."
Before I could say anything she interrupts.
"Stop, stop. You need to stop." Callie comes closer to me as she asks me to stop. She puts her hands on my cheeks and lifts my head so that I stare her directly in her eyes then she continues.
"All these things you are mentioning are silly things that can be fixed. I slept with someone, and that made you jealous. It doesn't make you toxic. Next time don't run away, next time answer your phone. Next time tell me, 'Callie I don't like that one bit'. I will hug you. I will reassure you. Would that have changed the thoughts?"
She might be right that could've helped. "I don't know" - I tell her. She let's go of my face and take a step back.
"Well that's okay but we haven't tried it because you chose to ran. When you are anxious tell me, I can help even if you are anxious for 20 hours of the day. We'll work through it . It will get better. Remember this is new too me to. I'm also anxious all the time because I don't want to mess this up again. Lastly so what if the dishes is in the wrong place. I would rather fight you over dishes than lay awake at night wondering where you are. "
"But Callie what if don't like who I am now."
"You right I don't like you, I love you." - She again take a step forward.
I can't help but smile. She grabs hold of my waist.
"Arizona , I don't want to wait anymore. Why do we have to wait ? It would be better for us to know what we are and then move forward from there. We'll know our boundaries. So let's not wait."
Before I could answer she kissed me. The kiss was passionate I had to pull away for a breath of fresh air. Before I could answer she says:
"So what do you think, do you want me to help you fix the hard and silly things? Then you can also help me with my silly and hard things"
I can't help but chuckle a little bit. She always knows just how to make me laugh. Why did I even second guess this. So yes if I have thoughts of relapsing maybe I should speak to Callie first. Maybe I should open up about my anxiety and just in general my feelings. I don't have to fight this battle alone. The love of my life just told me here and now that she'll help me . What more can I ask for. I grab her beautiful tan cheeks and place a small sincere kiss on her lips.
"Yes Callie you can help me with all the silly and hard things. We can be together and we can have boundaries. We don't have to wait. Let's just be us again. I just want to be us again."
Callie is smiling and I'm smiling. We couldn't get a word out. We were just speechless. We both came in for the kiss. It wasn't kiss that would initiate sex, no this was just a kiss of two lovers coming together. You could tell both of us didn't want it to stop.
Then the door of the bedroom opened. It was Sofia. Callie pushed me away but she did it to hard and I fell over the bed. Both Callie and I start laughing , like to teenagers in love. Sofia was outraged. How could Callie push me? she wanted to know. I told her that we were playing a game and she seemed to be accepting that excuse.
"Mia is awake." The little latina said. She is the splitting image of her beautiful mom. I just can't get over it.
"Okay baby girl , we'll go get her and Aaron and then let's go home." - Callie looks at me smiling and I know she means that home is her house and she wants me there. This feels so good I can only smile back at her.
I can see what Sofia wanted to ask, it's writing all over her face and I hardly give her chance.
"Yes love, let's go home."
