AN: Prompt was 'tattoo' from little-fasionista. One-shot set after the plane crash, way after the plane crash.
Arizona Robbins was tired; getting back into the routine of work was hard enough after a years absence, let alone with just one leg. It had been a hard year, a long year, but finally she felt like she was back to being something of her old self. Callie and her were even getting better now, they'd started talking, touching, finding one another against amongst all the grief. Arizona missed her wife. She missed being the wife that she was meant to be.
As she walked into the apartment she noticed instantly that she was not the only one home, Callie had obviously picked up Sofia already as their coats were strewn over the couch. 'Callie?'
Arizona walked gingerly through the apartment, her prosthesis being to really nip after a nine hour shift at the hospital. 'Cal?' Opening the bedroom door Arizona stopped dead as she saw an underwear-clad stood on the other side of the bed. It wasn't just the fact that she hadn't seen that much of her wife for nearly a year it was the writing on Callie's chest that caught her eye the most. On seeing Arizona enter the room Callie had hastily tried to cover herself up, not ready to explain herself yet.
'Stop.' Arizona said, 'What-t?' Arizona walked forwards, around the bed, thinking hard before deciding to reach her hand out and gently tracing the black lettering that now lay on Callie's left chest, just about over where her heart was.
Callie tensed underneath Arizona's touch, 'It-t...'
'What does it say?'
'Arizona, por siempre mi amor.' Callie spoke without looking, her voice quiet.
Arizona gulped, tears already forming in her eyes, 'What does it mean?'
'Arizona, forever my love.' Callie said.
'When did you get it?' Arizona asked.
'The day after you told me you didn't hate me, and that you still loved me.' Callie answered.
Arizona didn't know what to say; it was something so simple and yet something that brought down the remainder of the walls that Arizona had built up long before as she reached forward and kissed her wife properly for the first time in nearly a year.
