A/N: I'm so glad you are liking this story so far, so I'm going to go ahead and stir the plot. I have a few things going on in my life right so I wrote a mini chapter. Hope you enjoy!


Chapter 16

Callie Torres was a professional, she had done several photoshoots before so she knew how to maintain herself. Out of the corner of her eye she couldn't help but watch Arizona and take in her composure. She saw how her face drained as the photos kept on getting steamer and steamer. She watched Arizona getting tense before she finally dashed off. Callie almost got off of her stool, but she couldn't let her employees see the hold the blonde had on her. Even though, she wanted to chase her so bad. But she smiled for the photos. She felt a fair hand that was on her chest make its way down her abs and grab at her crotch. This was when she drew the line.

"Why don't we all take a quick break," she said before rising from her seat and turning to face Erica.

"Relax honey." The blonde said.

"Relax! How do you think I can relax when you literally have your hand on my penis! This is a photoshoot for God sakes! I do not want a fucking boner in these pictures. These are meant for billboards and magazines and not the porn kind!"

Erica sighed. "Is this for your little toy there?"

"For the last time Erica! Stop calling her that!"

The blonde took a swig of water that was offered to her. "You are still this uptight stuck-up bitch who is just too much of herself. Same old Callie Torres."

The Latina didn't know how to react to that. "Well… I-"

"Give her a chance Callie."

"I cannot, I just-"

Erica shook the hair that had fallen on her face. "Remember what I told you when we were dating?"

"Yeah," she started. "You told me that I was not right for you, that I was still discovering myself-"

Erica cut her off "That is not what I told you! Why do you focus on the least important part? We are not compatible. Ee will never be. We weren't right for each other."

Callie huffed. "And that's different from saying that I was not right for you. I don't get it."

The Latina paced towards the snack bar as her eyes fell on the pink sprinkle donuts. She remembered how Arizona told her that whenever she felt like crap, she would grab a donut. That a simple sugary treat was the answer to everything. It made her feel better. She didn't know why but she smiled looking at the tray of donuts.

"Callie, both of us are ruthless people, we don't see people, we see business. That woman who just ran away because she couldn't bare to see me touching you, she sees you, the real you."

"Arizona didn't run away, she's not jealous."

"Are you blind? She clearly likes you."

Callie turned around sharply. "She doesn't okay! She just, we are not. I can't-"

"Why? What are you so scared of? Does she know about your penis?" Callie nodded. "Did she run away from you because of it?" Callie shook her head. "Then what's the big deal?"

Erica walked up to Callie and put her hands on her shoulder. "I know me touching you and all that was not right, but I did it so that it could get through your thick skull to not let go of that woman. Tell me one person who you have been with would have had that reaction to a stranger touching you, me included."

Callie opened her mouth to speak but then she realized that her past girlfriends weren't the nicest people on the planet.

"Exactly! Besides, I thought I was here to help you figure out who was embezzling from you and not fix your high school love life drama."

The Latina rolled her eyes. "Yes, I have no idea who is stealing from me and I do need your help, but could you not call it my high school love life drama?"

"Do you have a better word for it?"

Callie shrugged her shoulders.

"Then that's what I will call it. Besides, we still have like three minutes, why don't you go check up on her?"

"I don't even know where she is-"

But before Callie could finish her sentence Erica cut her off. "Its not always bad to show your human side Callie, to show that you care, especially to people you actually care about. Not everyone is out to get you."

"It's difficult you know. I can't just let go of all of my insecurities to let her in."

"You don't have to bring all of those walls down together, but you can start by taking it down brick by brick for her. She's worth it. Now go find her!"


Arizona dashed to the nearest washroom she could find before punching the door open and leaning on the sink washing the tears that were freely flowing down her face.

She had no idea why she was feeling this way, why she was crying. It was simple photoshoot of her boss, sure it was a getting a bit sexy, but she was not a prude. Hell, she has taken much sexier picture of the Latina and had herself being photographed by Callie in literally no clothes with her nipples on full display then why was she crying now.

She held onto the corner of the sink trying to catch her breath. She knew that she shouldn't be having a full-fledged panic attack.

Suddenly, she heard the door being opened. She looked towards it, secretly hoping that the Latina was on the other side of the door, but wait, did she really want Callie on the other side of the door watching her getting undone because some other woman had her hands on her? But then it would feel nice to have her feeling and emotions being validated.

Nonetheless, the door opened to reveal Lauren on the other side of it.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, why won't I be?"

"Because you literally ran out of there?"

Arizona discretely tried to wipe the tears away.

"Yeah, allergies. No need to worry about me, I have it under control."

Lauren took a couple of steps forwards towards the blonde before pushing the stray strand of hair way from her face. "Are you?"

"Lauren, I appreciate you and I appreciate how great of a friend you have been but I-"

Before Arizona could finish her sentence, she felt Lauren leaning forward and kiss in her on her lips. The blonde was in shock. She didn't know what to do, for a moment, she felt like she should give in and let Lauren kiss her, that she deserved to be loved, she deserved to have her feelings be validated. If not that, just use her to get her mind away from the brunette. But on the other hand, Lauren was not worth it all. She didn't even hold a candle to her Latina. Sure, Callie came with a lot of problems and heartache but the time she had spent with the brunette couldn't even compare to this woman.

Arizona on put her hand on the woman's shoulder to pry her away from her but it didn't seem like Lauren was in any mood to let her go. She grabbed the pale hands that were on her waist and extracted them from her body before gently punching her way.

But importunely, she didn't do it fast enough. At that exact moment, the door open to reveal Callie on the other side of the door with a shocked expression on her face.

"Calliope!" but before she could say anything to the Latina, she ran away, far away from that cursed bathroom. "Wait!" Arizona called out to her, but she knew it was futile.


A/N: How was that? The next update might take a while, so please let me know. What do you think should happen next? Should we put them on a path of reconciliation or more drama?
