Never Meant To Love You

Third Date

Miranda smiled as she walked to the research lab Callie was in. She and Ben went on their official second date and it was amazing. He took her to one of the most romantic restaurants in Seattle then they went stargazing and she explained all the stars to him. He planned another date and this time he was going to cook for her tonight.

"Hey Torres, you paged me?" Miranda asked as she walked into the lab.

"Yeah I just wanted to see if my resident could be on your service since I'm in here."

"Yeah, that's fine," Miranda replied.

At first Callie was focused on the cartilage she was trying to make but when she heard Miranda's cheerful voice she looked up at her suspicious.

"Why do you seem so happy?" Callie asked and Miranda looked at her confused.

"It's the club owner isn't it?" Callie gasped.

"Well we had an amazing second date and then he is cooking for me tonight," Miranda said.

"Ohh it's the third date....are you ready?" Callie asked raising her eyebrow.

"Ummm for food sure, it's not that big of a deal. He just wants to show me how good of a cook he is."

"Not for food, to
Mbe in his bed," Callie replied and Miranda looked even more confused.

"The third date is a sex date," Callie exclaimed.

"Oh Torres no it's not, it is possible to enjoy food and keep your pants on in the process."

"He is bringing you to his home, fixing you dinner in the place where he keeps his bed. I'm just saying you need to be prepared."

Miranda felt worried now even though they hadn't had a conversation about sex it wasn't impossible for him to assume that they wouldn't be having sex. Especially since the last two dates and the apology dinner was amazing.

"Well if that's the case what do I wear and do I bring a bag to spend the night?"

"Pants like you're not expecting it to happen but you're ready. And no, just a walk of shame to the car under a cover of darkness."

"Okaayyy how ready?"

"Like you prepped the surgical field," Callie  gestured.

"Ohh Torres!"

"Here is the number of the Ukrainian lady across the street. She will get you together."

Miranda took the number and walked out. She'd never gotten a wax before and her ex husband never seemed to have a problem. But maybe she needed to try it and Ben seemed like he would prefer it. Miranda took her lunch break and went across the street. She introduced herself to the lady and Eugenia began explaining the waxing services. Miranda quickly decided she didn't want to get the wax done and left. She returned to the lab and looked at Callie.

"So I went to see Eugenia and she asked me did I want 44 cent or the 3."

"You don't have to tell me which one you did," Callie said shaking her head.

"I LEFT! Listen I am a grown woman and I prep my surgical field with soap and water.  It shouldn't be mistaken for the surgical field of a five year old girl. A woman is supposed to have a little something on her surgical field. If a man can't handle a little nature, a little God on my surgical field he shouldn't be anywhere near my surgical field."

"Okay I'm not holding a gun to your head, let freedom ring."

Miranda poked her lip out and touched Callie's hand. "What if I'm not cut out for this and can't handle all the foolishness that comes with dating," Miranda pouted.
