Callie pov

Everything hurts. Every part of my body hurts. Callie stumbled through the hallways of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. The hood of her jacket was pulled over her head, walking with her head down in the hope that no one would recognize her. She doubted they would, Callie Torres never walks with her head down. She had do keep herself steady against the walls, breathing got harder with every step she took. She knew she was in bad shape. She had at least fractured some of her ribs, a possible fracture to her right zygomatic arch maybe even her femur and she for sure broke some of her digits. She also could tell that one of her ribs might have punctured the left lung, hence the breathing and she wouldn't be surprised if she had some internal bleeding. Just keep on walking, you can make it. She wasn't sure where she was going, she just had to find someone she didn't know or at least, they didn't know her.

She heard her colleagues talking about a new attending, she believed they said PEDS. She made a right turn towards the wing. She tried to walk as straight up as she could since there were all kids in here, she didn't want to scare them or make anyone she knows aware of her presence. She walked up to the nursing station, no one was there which wasn't weird at this time of the night but there had to be a doctor present. She checked the board to see which doctor was on duty. Dr. Robbins, or 2. Started 30 minutes ago on a Appendectomy. She should be done soon. Callie decided to wait for Dr. Robbins in the patients bathroom. He or she would still be out when they got back so she wouldn't have to scare the kid. She just had to figure out who the Doctor was. She walked towards the bathroom of the patients room and locked the door. She looked in the mirror and barely recognizing herself. The swelling on her eye made it close. Her other eye was bruised and almost matched the color of her hair.

Her lip needed sutures and her nose was definitely broken. She grabbed the facecloth that was laying on the cabinet and tried to turn on the hot water with her bloody and broken fingers. She groaned in pain, shit this hurts, she mentally cursed. Finally the hot water was running and Callie waited a bit before holding the cloth under the stream of warm water. She used her hand that didn't hurt as bad to wring out the excess water and started cleaning her face. Being as gentle as she could.

She heard some people talking but she wasn't sure if they were already in the patients room or not. She walked towards the door as quite as she could and put her beat up face against the door. 'Thank you so much guys, we just saved this little boys life', a female voice she didn't recognize spoke to the other people in the room. 'You're welcome, Dr. Robbins, it's always a pleasure working with you', one of the nurses replied. She heard footsteps and took it as them leaving the room. 'You'll be alright', she heard the doctor whisper to the boy who just had an emergency surgery to get his appendix removed. This was her chance, she just had to take it. Unlocking the door and gently opening it without making too much noise to not scare the doctor she walked out. 'Excuse me', Callie whimpered, 'I need some help'.

Arizona's pov

She had done an Appendectomy over 200 times so it was sort of a routine for her but she couldn't help but be happy that yet another one was successful. She looked over her shoulder sensing someone with her in the room but obviously her instincts were letting her down. She wrote the last update in her patients chart before hearing a door open. 'Excuse me', Arizona turned her head around as if she just heard a ghost talk, 'I need some help'.

'Oh my god, are you okay?' Arizona was shocked by the sight of the woman. Her face was beaten up and she could see some blood here and there. Arizona practically running over to the woman and grabbing her by her arms to support her. 'What happened to you?' She asked trying to figure out what the hell was going on here. 'I need some-' Arizona started but was cut off by the woman. 'No others- just. You'. The woman breathed hard. Sighing and obviously in a lot of pain. 'You need medical attention and by the looks of it you need more than just one doctor' Arizona explained. 'I am a doctor, please no others' the woman looked at her with pleading eyes. She took a second to look into her eyes before responding. 'okay, come on, let's go to another room'.

Once they got to a room where Arizona had the supplies to work with she sat the unknown woman down on the bed. 'What's your name?' she asked needing something to call the woman. 'I can't tell you' the raven haired woman answered. 'uhm, okay?' if Arizona wasn't already confused now she was. 'You can't tell me your name because you don't know your name?' immediately grabbing her penlight and checking Jane Doe's pupils. 'I know my name, I know where I am and I know your name. I just need some sutures and then I'll go'. Arizona gave her a once over and, again, came to the conclusion that that was not gonna happen. 'yeah, no, I don't think so'. She answered in her don't-mess-with-me voice. 'Please, just stitch up whatever needs to be and let me go. I can't stay here' it clearly hurt the Latina to speak. 'You have at least three fractures from what I can see so far, I highly recommend you stay here and get the treatment you need' Arizona tried again. 'People know me here, I don't want them to see me like this, I just can't'. the woman whimpered and let her head hang down. 'Okay, so then, what are you going to do?' The blond PED's surgeon asked. Raising her head she answered. 'I'll be going home, take off some unpaid leave, heal up and come back to work' she answered through gritted teeth. 'Oh, so you work here?' fishing deeper to find out who she was and what happened to her. The woman locked eyes with her again. 'Yes, I do. Ortho. Please, nobody can know' she practically begged her now. Arizona was suturing her busted lip. There weren't a lot of other cuts to suture but she was more worried about her internal injuries and her fractures. She stopped what she was doing and used one hand and gently put it under the woman's chin, raising it so she could look her in the eyes. She spoke softly 'Seriously, and I'm not saying this to go against you, but as a doctor you know as well as I do that you need serious medical treatment. You have at least three fractures from what I can see and I wouldn't be surprised if you have some internal bleeding, you need to be admitted'.

Callie's pov

There was no going against this woman. And she know she was right but she couldn't bare the idea of her colleagues seeing her like this. Maybe there was no other way. 'Fine, admit me'. The beautiful blonde let a sigh of relieve. 'Okay, good, that's good'. She left the room and several minutes later she came back with a wheelchair. 'Hop in,' the PED's surgeon said with a small smile. Callie moved herself from the bed into the wheelchair.

Once they arrived at the ER dr. Robbins called out for help and Hunt, Kepner and Yang came running. Yang clearly disappointed that this wasn't a cardio patient. 'You got this?' she said annoyed and Hunt just nodded his head. 'Yeah, we got this'. 'Hi, ma'am, my name is dr. Hunt. Can you tell me what happened' obviously he didn't recognize her. Shining his penlight in her eyes like Robbins had done just moments ago. 'She came to me 30 minutes ago, blunt force trauma to the head, possible rib fractures, femur fractures and her hand looks pretty damaged'. Arizona gave a quick overall on the situation. 'Ma, am, what happened?' Hunt tried again, 'Can you move?'. Arizona wheeled her over to a bed where they lifted her out of the chair and laid her down. 'She works here, she doesn't want to say her name' Arizona filled them in. 'You work her?' Kepner repeated, really focusing on her face now. 'Oh my god, Callie!?' she screeched. 'Keep it down, Kepner' Callie forced out. Her jaw was hurting so bad she barely could open her mouth. She flinched because of the sudden movement she made to keep Kepner quite. 'Accident.. fell down.. stairs..' She had to make something up. She wasn't gonna tell them the truth. Hunt started cutting her clothes off her body. Starting with her jeans and after that her shirt. 'Massive bleeding in the abdomen, book an OR, now!' he said losing control of his emotions. He bent his head over hers and looked at Callie. 'Callie, what happened' he whispered, clearly emotional.

Thank you so much for reading, let me know what you think and if you want me to continue. I promise the chapters will be longer. It's harder for me to write since English is not my first language. It's a really personal story for me and I'm really excited to write it. Again, please let me know what you think! :)
