"Do you think I'm asking too late?" Callie asked hesitantly as Meredith handed her the poster. They were currently in the 6th week of the school year and Callie still hadn't worked up the nerve to ask Arizona to homecoming. She really didn't have any reason to be nervous; Arizona was so obvious in her flirting that the entire group was surprised she hadn't asked Callie first.

"Of course not," Meredith said reassuringly. "You need to take a deep breath, she's going to say yes."

"I know," Callie sighed. She looked down to see her phone ringing and basically threw it across the hallway to Meredith. "Answer it,"

"Cristina?" Meredith said once she unlocked the phone and answered the call.

"She just walked in," Cristina whispered. "You've got like 20 seconds."

"Thanks," Meredith said, quickly hanging up and switching to the camera on Callie's phone. "15 seconds," she said, handing Callie the cup of coffee and the slice of banana bread they had bought for Arizona before coming to school. running off to catch up with her. "Hey!" She smiled as she approached the blonde.

"Hey," Arizona laughed. "You seem perky today."

"Oh," Meredith shrugged, hitting the record button on Callie's phone before they turned into junior hall. Callie was standing in the middle holding the poster with one hand and the coffee in another. The poster read I know I'm super late, but do you want to be my hoco date?

Arizona's eyes lit up and she walked forward to wrap Callie in a hug. "Oh my god, yes," she smiled excitedly," turning around so Meredith could get a picture. "This is so cute, Callie, thank you."

"You're welcome," Callie laughed. "The food is for you and if you want the poster, it's yours."

"Oh I'm taking the poster," Arizona laughed, giving the girl another hug.

Callie reached into her back pocket and pulled out a singles ticket for the dance. "They wouldn't let me buy a couples ticket for another girl so I hope this is okay."

"It's perfect, thank you," Arizona smiled.

"It's looking like we're gonna do pictures at this really nice park about 10 minutes away from here, then we'll all go get food somewhere, but I'm taking you out after the dance," Callie explained.

"Okay," Arizona agreed. "Thank you so much Callie, this means so much to me."

"You're my best friend, of course," Callie smiled. She was so excited to take Arizona to homecoming.

"Mom, can you come braid my hair?" Arizona called from her bedroom. She was sat at her desk chair, finishing up the last few curls on her hair. Callie would be coming in an hour and she still had yet to do her makeup.

"You should just leave it down," Barbara said, walking into Arizona's room. "Your dress is flashy so you don't want to draw too much hair away from it."

"Can you just braid a little bit on each side back?" Arizona asked. "I want to look perfect for her." She knew Callie would look absolutely gorgeous and she wanted to look as nice as possible.

Barbara nodded and got to work on Arizona's hair. "You haven't been wearing your leg today." Arizona rarely spent an entire day without her leg on. Even when she was sore, she left it on because she didn't want anyone seeing her be so vulnerable.
