Ice cream and talking

It was the next night. Just like any other day, today had been a day full of fun, laughter, friends, and overall today was an amazing day.

Amelia and Arizona were cuddling on the bed of their motel room. "Babe." Amelia looked up at Arizona. Arizona hummed. "Can we go raid the freezer?" She chuckled.

"Why not." Arizona grinned. "Stay here! I'm gonna get everything!" Amelia rushed cheerfully off the bed.

Amelia quickly ran out of the room and closed the door behind her. She ran out with no shoes, just socks. Arizona laid back down once she left.

She patiently waited on the bed for Amelia to be back with whatever she could find in the freezer. While waiting, Arizonas mind filled with Amelia once again, that girl was everything she thunk of, they were young yet so deeply in love.

About 5 minutes later a knock came at the door. "Babe open the door I found ice cream!" Amelia giggled behind the door, knocking constantly and non stop. "Okay-okay I'm coming!" Arizona stood up to open the door.

She opened the door and Amelia came flying back into the room. "Woah, calm down!" Arizona laughed. "Im sorry." The brunette apologized. "But look! I got Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla! Its Neapolitan!" Amelia exclaimed, grinning.

"Alright babe! You can set these down first, then we can eat these together." Arizona stuck her hands out to take the containers of ice cream, and spoons, out of Amelia's reach.

"Okay." Amelia pouted. Arizona kissed her cheek before setting the containers down on the bed. Amelia hopped over the covers and put her hands around a pint of chocolate ice cream.

Arizona crawled onto the bed and put her arm around Amelia's waist. She kissed the top of her head while Amelia looked attempted to open the ice cream containers. "Ugh I cant do it!" She groaned. Arizona held in laughter, "Amelia... you cant just open it when theres a huge sticker holding it down." Arizona giggled against Amelia's head. "Here let me do it babe." Arizona offered her help.

"I just wanna eat ice cream already!" Amelia whined. "Impatient brat." Arizona teased. "Meanie." Amelia shot back. "Love of my life." Arizona bit her lip, holding back her smile. "You win." Amelia chuckled back at her.

Arizona took the Tupperware of ice cream and ripped the sticker off the opening, showing Amelia how to do it. "Thats so inconvenient that there is a sticker there." Amelia pouted again. "It's to keep you out of eating it all." Arizona smirked playfully. "That's mean." Amelia frowned.

"Take your ice cream now brat." Arizona chuckled handing the ice cream back over to Amelia. "Thank you meanie." Amelia grinned. "I'm gonna take the vanilla ice cream." Arizona stretched over to reach for the vanilla ice cream on the edge of the bed.

She opened it up and sat directly across from Amelia, making eye contact with her. "So.. what do you wanna talk about?" Arizona started a conversation. "I dunno." Amelia shrugged, shoving another spoonful of chocolate ice cream into her mouth.

"Well I know something I wanna talk about with you that I dont think we've talked about together before." Arizona dug into her ice cream again. "Which is?" Amelia raised her eyebrows.

"My past. Growing up as a lesbian." Arizona softly exclaimed. "Go on." Amelia nodded. "Well, first of all the homophobia is insane once you're 13, in middle school, and just realizing that instead of boys you like girls. So that was definitely a big part of the homophobia in my life. From people writing mean names on my locker, treating me as if I'm 'Inhumane' or 'less than them' for simply just liking the same gender as me. And just overall coming out and freely being a lesbian changed my life for both good and bad. I will say though, one of the good things is you." Arizona numbly spoke, then smiled at the end of her sentence.

"I cant even imagine what it was like for you openly being gay at such a young age, in such a judgemental world we live in. As a bisexual woman, I may not know exactly how it is like being a lesbian, but homophobia is something I'm not a stranger too. I mean, I just don't understand why people think of gay people as such a 'threat', or a 'bad thing' because all we're doing is wanting to love the people we love, but people just don't accept that and it makes me so enraged, that innocent lives who just want to have rights, go through this so often." Amelia sighed.

"I completely agree. All I can blame is the way society's stereotypes are honestly. For example, lets take a guy who likes the color pink. For some reason, people will automatically think he's gay over a color? It's so stupid. And don't even get me started on people who use gay as an insult. It just doesn't add up as to why people are so mad over people wanting to love who they want!" Arizona expressed. Amelia nodded.

"Honestly, I feel like people who don't like people like us are just secretly closeted." Amelia giggled. "Oh for sure." Arizona chuckled. "I mean... imagine is someone who we knew was secretly closeted." Amelia snickered. "Imagine." Arizona snickered alongside her.

"Wouldn't be surprised if Mr Stark was a little gay." Amelia laughed hysterically. "Oh my god not Mr Stark!" Arizona chuckled. "I wouldn't though!" Amelia shrugged, continuing to laugh.

"He definitely has my gaydar going up!" Arizona giggled. "I know, right?!" Amelia raised her eyebrows. They continued to laugh and talk for the next 20 minutes.

"Do you wanna watch something?" Amelia asked. "Okay sure why not. We still need to finish season 3 of Glee." Arizona smiled. Amelia nodded and got up to grab the remote.

Arizona leaned back against the headboard of the bed, while Amelia grabbed the remote.

The brunette retrieved the remote and sat down in her girlfriends lap. Arizona put her hands inside Amelia's shirt, on her stomach. "Santana is an icon." Amelia spoke. "I agree. Power lesbian." Arizona chuckled.

"I also love Kurt." Arizona admitted. "I'm more of a Blaine girly, but yes I love Kurt." Amelia smiled. "This show just gives off good vibes, I don't know why but I love it." Arizona said.

At about 3:00 AM, Amelia ran back to the freezer to store the ice creams back in the fridge so the two could sleep. They ended up sleeping, cuddled into each others embrace, just as they always do.
