"Shhhh no don't cry baby boy, please, I know, I know"
He's been crying for over an hour when I finally make my way into Seattle Grace /Mercy West hospital. I am beyond exhausted but I bet so is he.
"Hi uhm I'm looking for Teddy Altman? Is she around?" I ask bouncing him.
" ? She's on her lunch break she should be in the cafeteria"
The young brunette says with a smile
"Oh isn't he just the cutest thing! What's his name?" the nurse next to her asks. Upon hearing this his wailing stops.
"This is Lenox, say hi baby" I say with a big smile. Of course he just looks around wondering whats happening like any other 8 month old.
"Well thank you anyway and the cafeteria Is this way right?" I say pointing over my left shoulder.
"Yes, have a good day" both nurses say with a smile
"Same" I say scurrying around the corner to the big white room.
"Lenox Daniel Robbins!" I hear my best friend squeal as she comes up behind me. Taking him from my arms.
"Hey what am I chopped liver?" I say half joking.
"Hello to you too Ms. Grumpy pants! Mommy's grumpy today isn't she munchkin?" Teddy says lightly squeezing my sons cheeks.
"Thats because little munchkin has been crying all morning" I say rolling my eyes. "it's like I can't get a little break, I love my son to death but my back is killing me"
"Well let me keep him for a night you go find a hot girl to hook up with, let loose for one night, god knows your pussies tight" She says giggling
"See, this is how i know your going to corrupt my son" I say stealing one of her fries"
"Altman! why don't you introduce me to your lady friend over here" I look up to see a man with salt and pepper hair and a big smirk staring at me like I'm meat.
"Arizona this is Mark Sloan, Sloan this is Arizona Robbins, zona mark works in plastics" Teddy says
"Yes, so if you need anything removed, tucked or .. Enhanced I'm your man" Mark says winking at me.
Laughing at him, I see a beautiful raven haired women walking toward our table.
"Hey way to leave me!" she says slapping marks arm.
"Hey look I had to get out of there, I was scared for my life, everyone knows anything standing in your way of getting coffee is going down" he finishes taking a big bite of his apple.
"Sorry, I'm- Calliope.. But call me Callie" she says looking me deep in my eyes smiling.
"Calliope.. I'm Arizona, oh and this is my son Lenox" I say smiling. I look at calliope as she looks anywhere but at me.
"Woah wait that's your son Blondie? Ugh too late" Mark says dismissively waving his hand.
"He is really beautiful.. Arizona" Callie says looking at him.
"Thank you" I say wishing i could tell her.
BUZZZZ
"Yup that's me! Gotta run! I'll meet you at my house later on tonight? The keys under the mat" Teddy says handing Leni back to me.
"Okay no problem, say have a good day auntie Teddy" I say waving my sons tiny hand.
As teddy waves back I take a chance glance at Calliope and see that she is playing with her apple sauce.
"Hey Sloan can you do a quick consult for me?" I look behind me to see a small mousy man that looks like he just ran a 10k.
"Yeah defiantly, see ya later ladies, and munchkin" Mark says jumping up to walk after the older man.
"So Calliope, what's your specialty?" i ask trying to ease the awkward-ness.
"Oh I'm in Ortho" she says beaming.
"That's so cool! Do you love it?" I ask.
"Some days are better than others but all in all I love it! ... What about you? What do you do? I haven't seen you around.."
"Yeah I use to live in Nevada as a pharmacist but things uh.. Kinda just.. Changed there so one day Teddy and I were talking and she told me to come out here and I can stay with her until I get settled and everything so I just picked up and left" I say maneuvering my now sleeping son over my shoulder.
"Wow I know what you mean, not really knowing if the odds will be in your favor or not but just leaving"
"Yeah. So Calliope, are you dating anyone?" I ask getting a eyebrow lift in return.
" Ha, oh no. Not at all.. How about you no husband waiting for you?"
"Husband? No? No wife or girlfriend either." I say smirking.
BUZZZZ
"Oh crap that's me" she says grabbing and reading her pager from her hip. " Uhm look, I'm probably taking a huge leap here but would you maybe want to go get something to drink tonight? There's a bar right across from the hospital called Joes? 8 tonight?" she says hopefully
"Uhm.. I just.." I stumble looking down at Lenox
"Or! You could come over to my apartment with this adorable baby and I could cook you dinner... I know I'm being really presumptuous here I just..."
"No I get it... I feel it too.." I say looking around.
"Okay.. Well I gotta go but I will text teddy my address and what time to come over and then she can give you my number, sound good?"
"Yes, sounds good, thank you.. Uh have a good rest of the day" I say as she starts walking backwards
"You too, bye Arizona" she says smiling.
"Bye Calliope" I say.
Looking around smiling I pick up Lenox's diaper bag and start walking towards the exit. Reaching my white Ranger Rover I put my son in his seat in the back and strap him in, i sit the bag on the other side of him. As I slip into the front seat I pull out my cellphone quickly texting teddy
'Hey, Callie uhm invited Lenox and I over so she can cook dinner... So do you have her number? Her pager chimed she had to rush off'
' Ooo I guess you took my advice huh? But with Lenox there too?'
'Oh shut up! Lol we are not going to do anything, I'm not even absolutely sure if she's gay or not! So! Number?'
'Callie Torres is very gay! The benefits of working at a gossip mill hospital you know everything about everyone & 206-575-1211 & how about I take Lenox for tonight?'
'Okay okay! We'll see, and I don't know... Are you sure? & I'm going to your place, what time do you get off?'
'7 & Yes I'm very sure! help yourself to anything at the house :)'
Getting the last text from teddy I sit my phone in the cup holder and start up my car. After making the short trip to my best friends house I get my peaceful son out and go to the front door.. I love the feel of this neighborhood. Safe.. But then again anything can happen. I bend down and grab the key under the mat and slowly open the door revealing the beautiful modest home.
"What do you think Leni? Could this be our home for a while?" I say looking at my restless son sleeping away on my shoulder.
Looking around I see a big crib in the corner of the room, getting closer I see a card tapped to the side.
'Arizona,I thought my god son would need something to sleep in' -Teddy
I smile and lay Lenox down in the crib on his stomach and i finally take a deep breath. Taking one last look at him I turn on my heels to get all our bags out of the car.
After 4 trips up and down the stairs all the bags are in our room, not put away, but at least in the room. I go back into the open living room and see my baby boy still sleeping soundly.
I sit down on the plush couch and pull out my phone, I decide to text Calliope and ask for her number.
'Hey! Is this Callie? This is Arizona :)'
'Oh hey! Yeah it's me! I was wondering if you got my number or not. How are you?'
'I'm good! Good.. Lenox just laid down for a nap about 15 minutes ago and is still thankfully sleeping'
'Awe! I wanna pic!'
I smile as I look at the message and go over to Leni's new crib I snap a shot of him in dreamland and send it off to Calliope.
'Isnt he the cutest thing? Look at his little fingers!'
'I know! When I first had him I spent hours just staring'
'I bet! So.. Uh.. Are we still on for tonight?'
'Yes, and Teddy wanted to take Lenox tonight so it'll just be you and I'
'Oh okay, that's no problem :)'
'Yeah.. Uhm question.. Is this a date?'
'Ha.. Uh... If that's okay with you.. I mean I wasn't sure...'
'No, yeah! Totally.. A date. Okay'
':) Good, so my address is 1324 RoseField Apartments Apt. 502'
'Okay, cool, I'll just put it in my Gps, 8 right?'
'Yup, see you then?'
'See you then :)'
Clicking off my phone and throwing my phone beside me I lean back on the couch... I have a date.. A date with Calliope Torres. Oh god! What am I gonna wear?
