Summary: takes place after the bathroom kiss... kind of a different spin on things.
Disclaimer: I don't own 'em but I really wish I did
A/N: I'm super sorry it's taking me so long to update, work has been so hectic, I hope you're all not mad:) Anyways this is the pre date chapter hope you like:)
“ Get out...Now.” Callie growled from her crouched position behind the TV. Honestly she did not remember this Goddamn machine being so hard to hookup when she was a kid, hopefully it still worked.
“All I'm saying is this is some serious effort, this-” Cristina said spinning around to take in their living room; which now had a huge bowl of popcorn, some diet sodas and pizza place menus, and an ancient Super Nintendo system hooked to the TV..well half hooked up to the TV Callie seemed to be having a little trouble. “-is seriously the exact opposite thing of what I told you to do. Honestly Callie sex with the Peds surgeon, it's as easy as that. Just have sex with her. Wham bam thank you ma'...”
Callie shoved the last cord into the television and jumped up. “Let me stop you there Cristina and then let me give to you some knowledge. Arizona Robbins is NOT Mark Sloan. I cannot just walk in to an on-call room, wake her up, proceed to make out with her, and then expect her to have sex with me right then and there. Believe me it is not that simple.” Callie finished her rant and knelt down in front of the gray and purple console, grabbing the television remote in one hand and the Nintendo controller in the other, she prayed for a miracle.
“Oh my God you tried didn't you, you tried to on-call room booty call her and she shot you down, Oh Callie, so now...now you're trying to...” Cristina couldn't stop the laughter from escaping as she took in the stupid guilty look on her room mate's face. “You're way beyond my help now Callie.” Cristina said shaking her head as she made her way to the door. “And what are you guys like ten? Super Nintendo, seriously Callie that's what you choose to do on a date to get the hot Peds surgeon out of her clothes, Super Nintendo..seriously.”
Callie could hear Cristina's laughter floating through the closed door but even that couldn't stop the smile from spreading across her face when she saw little green Yoshi running across the screen.
*************************************
Arizona stopped on the front step of Callie's building to quickly look down at her watch, the delicate hands told her it was a quarter after eight, which meant she was fifteen minutes late. The lateness was totally Callie's fault because if Callie had told her what they were doing or even where they were going Arizona wouldn't have had so much trouble picking an outfit out.
But instead of specifics Arizona got vagueness. Well her faded jeans, midnight blue tank top, and peep toe pumps would just have to do. Taking a deep breath in and running a hand through her unruly blond curls Arizona reached for the door handle. Before her fingers could wrap around the cool metal her body jumped back in surprise when the door swung open and narrowly missed knocking her off the step.
Arizona smiled when she saw who it was. “Dr. Yang how are you tonight? Are you on call?” She decided that keeping it professional would be best since she had yet to be formally introduce to Cristina Yang.
“Yes” Cristina's response was curt and to the point.
Arizona took a step closer to Cristina, because well she was Arizona and professionalism was a little overrated and she liked Cristina's brutal honesty. In a hushed voice she asked, “You wouldn't happen to know what Calliope has planned tonight, for our date, do you? Because I tried to pry some information from her, any information from her but she just couldn't be pried. She wouldn't give a single detail up. Is it a fancy restaurant or dancing in a club, or a movie, I know it's too late for the zoo which is too bad cause I just love those little monkeys, they're so cute. Am I overdressed or under dressed...”
It was the rambling, despite the perkiness and the dimples and the overall cuteness of Dr. Arizona Robbins, it was the rambling that made Cristina instantly like her, although she would never tell her that.
Cristina had to have Callie's back and to do that she needed to stay emotionally uninvolved, she needed to be...well she needed to be herself.
Just as she was about to answer Arizona her pager went off, grabbing it out of her jacket pocket she looked down at the screen.
“Oh is it something bad Dr. Yang?” Arizona asked genuine concern lacing her voice.
“Trauma ten minutes out...and call me Cristina I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of each other whether we like it or not.” Cristina stated as she began jogging across the street towards Seattle Grace Hospital.
Turning at the last minute and jogging back she caught Arizona by the arm before she could enter the building. Spinning her around so they were face to face Cristina looked directly in her eyes. “Don't hurt her. Meredith may be my person but Callie...she's my room mate. Don't hurt her.”
