A/N: Thanks everyone for the great reviews, I love you I really do. This one is a bit shorter though, sorry I really wanted to post sooner so I made it shorter.

Previous chapters can be found at my journal

ARIZONA'S POV

I didn't want her to see me cry, but she did. And then she made that face. The face that says 'I feel so bad for you'. Well I don't need her pity, I really don't. Did the fact that she didn't call really have nothing with to do with what happened at the bus station? Or is she lying to make me feel better?

I snap out of the questions in my head when I hear her voice

“Where am I supposed to put these?” She asks holding up two books

“You can put them over here” I say walking over to a shelf where there are biography's.

“Okay thanks” She says smiling and starting to put the books in order. “So do we have some kind of discount or something, some of these books seem interesting” She says acting all normal.

“Um you can borrow whatever book you want and bring it back without coffee stains or whatever” I say distantly.

“Okay so have you read Sarah Palin's memoirs?” She asks and all I do is look at her and frown. Now she is pissing me off

“Really Callie? Really? She's a freaking homophobe and I should read her book?” I say, is she taunting me now?

“Well you can still read it and laugh at her...I'm gay too and I was thinking of reading it” Callie says

CALLIE'S POV

I know that I'm pissing her off, but it's the only way for her to talk to me.

“Well Callie that's the difference between us. Can we just work and not talk?” She asks and I feel like I should stop to push her buttons.

“Fine, so what should I do?” I ask her since she's kind of my boss

“We don't have any deliveries today. So you can do whatever you want for now” She says walking past me and sits down at a chair a few feet from me.

“Okay, I like this job already” I say smiling, she doesn't return my smile

I sit and contemplate what to do or say for a while. I really want to know what's going on between her and Sadie.

“What is it Callie?” I hear Arizona say

“What is what?” I ask confused, what is she meaning?

“What is it your thinking of, you're practically thinking out loud” Arizona says looking at me with a smug grin, she could always tell if I had something on my mind.

Well two can play this game

“I was thinking about Sadie and what was going on between you two.” I say and I can see that the smug grin fades away. Now I have one instead.

“I've already told you that it's none of your business” She says angrily, but I decide to push them a teeny bit more.

“That bad huh?” I say and I can see how pissed she is getting “I just think you deserve better” I tell her.

“Like who Callie? It's not like there are so many lesbians in this small town!” She says, really?

“So what you just picked a random one?” I say “That is completely messed up” I add

“Well yes, the one I wanted didn't want me back!” She says and I know that she means me “So I went for someone else, but it doesn't matter anymore Sadie and I are over. Are you happy now?” She says getting up and walking into the storage room.

Crap I pushed her buttons and made her upset. I should be happy, but I'm not.

I sit and continue to write on my novel in my notebook. I didn't want to bring my laptop. After about 15 minutes Arizona walks back in silence and starts to read a book.

I can feel that she is glancing up from time to time, but I just sit in silence and enjoy the fact that she's checking me out.

The day continues with customers coming and going.

ARIZONA'S POV

I'm trying to read my book, but somehow I can't stay away from looking at her. I don't think she's noticing me. As customers come and go I show Callie how to do stuff and she's a quick learner.

Soon I see that it's almost 4pm and she's supposed to go home earlier today since it's her first day.

“It's almost 4pm Callie, you can go home” I tell her and she looks up from her notebook.

“Really? Because I can stay if you need help” She offers nicely, almost too nicely smiling

“It's a slow day Callie, it's almost stupid to have two people working on a day like this” I say to her with a little bit of laughter.

She laughs and shakes her head

“Yeah you're right. I'm just going to use the bathroom and then I'll go” She says getting up and walking in to the bathroom.

Why is she making me feel all tickly and makes me feel butterflies when I look at her?

She walks back and grabs her bag.

“Well I'm off then, I'll see you tomorrow” She says. I could close the store earlier and ask her to go and get some coffee, but I can't. Even if maybe Sadie made the whole thing up about Callie talking shit about me behind my back I still don't trust her. Not even for coffee.

“Yeah bye” I say and we exchange smiles and she walks out.

I start to move some things around and I see her notebook. I walk out of the door, but I can see that she's already gone. Crap, well I'll give it to her tomorrow.

I put it on the desk and now I'm just staring at it. I wonder what it's about, but no it's personal I shouldn't read it. However it is maybe going to get published and then everyone will see it. But it's still wrong, God why am I so nosy?

After a few minutes of contemplating I decide to read it a little. Just a few pages, it's handwritten so it's not a lot. Why did she write it by hand at first? When I start to read I see that I'm thrown in the middle since I'm confused. All of the sudden I'm reading more than 15 pages. It's about two girls which shocks me really I wouldn't think that Calliope would write a lesbian love story.

It's about two friends, one of them is named Ariadne and the other one is Carmen. I'm not giving that much thought in the story until page 17.

When Ariadne tells Carmen she loves her at a bus station and it's raining.

Oh.My.God

This can't be happening, I'm starting to feel dizzy. I really shouldn't read more. But I'm curious about what went on in Callie's I mean Carmen's head. God this is confusing.

When I turn the page Carmen kisses Ariadne it stops there, but I've read more than enough. I drop the notebook at the floor, but I can't get the fact that Carmen kissed Ariadne in the rain and I can't help but smile that Callie wrote it like this.

I'm picking up the notebook, but then I hear Callie walking in.

And I'm standing with the notebook in my hand looking like a deer caught in the headlights.

Callie looks shocked and a teeny bit angry when she sees me.

“Arizona is that my notebook?” She asks seriously

“Um..yeah...no..I don't know I just saw it” I say, crap why am I so stupid?

CALLIE'S POV

When I walk in I see that Arizona's holding my notebook. Did she read it? She definitely read it I can see it by her stuttering. Crap! I start to get angry by the fact that she went through my personal stuff.

And by the look on her face she has read the whole thing.

“I forgot my notebook and what you read the whole thing?” I ask angrily. She just makes an innocent look on her face

“Sorry I really didn't read it” She says and I can see that she's lying. I take the notebook from her and I barely touch her hand but I can feel a jolt of electricity going through me at the touch. I look up and see her looking intently at me.

“Okay then” I say removing my hand and I start to walk out of the bookstore.

“Callie” She calls after me and I turn around and face her.

“Yes?” I ask her.

“I was thinking..but um never mind” She says and I can't help but wonder what she wanted but I won't push it.

“Okay” I say looking at her confused “Well I'll see you tomorrow” I say giving her a smile.

“Yeah bye Calliope” She says giving me a smile that is showing off her dimples.

When I walk out of the bookstore I can't help but smile for some reason. I don't know if she read what was in the notebook or not, but in one way I hope she did. Because in that case she would know that I regret my actions that day.

And she said Calliope.

A/N 2: Did it suck? I'm not to happy with this. I kind of know where this is going, but I'm not sure. Do you want them to keep playing hard to get or should I bring them together? Personally I prefer having them banter and argue lol.
