A Love Like No Other

by mistakesinmagic

Callie and Arizona sure were unexpected, but they turned out to be a beautiful couple. They've been through some tough times, but they've stuck by each other's sides and loved one another through it all. Now they're married with a child, but they're still the same old Seattle Grace surgeons. And they have some more problems to go through together. Continuation of Home Sweet Home.

1. Home Sweet Home

Short and sweet Calzona drabble I wrote a few days ago. I'm thinking of maybe making it into a full, multi-chapter fic. That'll depend on whether people like it or not and what I feel like later on. Based on episode 9x16, I believe. If not, I'm sure you guys know which one I'm talking about haha. Enjoy! Reviews are highly appreciated, my lovelies!

Callie sighed, using her fingers to gently comb Sofia's thin hair to the side. The toddler leaned against her mother's side, pushing another handful of Cheerios into her mouth with her chubby fingers.

"Arizona, we're not buying a house."

Arizona looked up at her wife, her blue eyes wide and pleading. The newspaper crinkled as she let it lean forward slightly.

"Why not? It we don't get to work at the hospital, what's the point in living here? We could get a house, start over fresh. We've got each other and a beautiful baby, it's all we really need."

"I don't know." Callie rubbed Sofia's back soothingly, smiling as her daughter abandoned her cereal and curled up into a ball of fuzzy pink pajamas. "It'd be a big change."

Arizona set the newspaper down on the coffee table, shifting on the couch so she was closer to her wife. "Maybe it's what we need," she sighed, moving her hand to rest it on Callie's knee. "Maybe a fresh start would be perfect for us."

Callie lifted Sofia into her lap, allowing Arizona to curl against her side. "I think we'd miss it too much," she said softly. "Our whole lives are here. It's all we know. I don't think I would be able to leave it all behind."

Arizona laid her head down on Callie's shoulder, her eyelids fluttering shut. "Seattle is where we fell in love, Calliope," she murmured, her voice full of realization. "I'm not so sure I'd be able to leave it either."

Callie kissed the top of Arizona's head, holding Sofia close to her. "We can be together with our beautiful baby right here in Seattle." She smiled down at her wife. "We can fall in love with each other all over again."

"I already do every day," Arizona purred sleepily, allowing Callie to run her fingers up and down her arm. "Callie, can I tell you something?"

Callie nodded, shooting Arizona a soothing smile as she leaned down to kiss her pale forehead. Sofia had fallen asleep in her lap, her thumb lodged between her plump lips. "Of course you can, love. What is it?"

Arizona opened her eyes, looking up at Callie tiredly. "I never thought I'd be the motherly type, you know that." Her mouth curved into a small, sleepy grin. "But lately, I've been thinking. I think I'd like another beautiful baby. Maybe I'd even like to be the one to have her."

Callie's dark chocolate eyes widened, and she let out a soft chuckle. "I think that sounds like a wonderful plan for the future, Zona, my darling." She swiped her fingers across Arizona's smooth cheek. "But for now, I think we need to work on having sex again before we try for another kid."

Arizona laughed lightly, craning her neck to place a gentle kiss on Callie's chin. "I've been thinking about that lately, too."
