Chapter 1
Within your life time you realize that everything is unpredictable. One moment it you could get ran over by a car and the next you could be buried six feet on the ground." If life is so unpredictable shouldn't one try to live it to the fullest no matter how bad it can be?...
A small buzzing noise surrounds the mall as hundreds of prone body's lay's silently in Seattle South Park Mall. As three people enter to see this mess one of them; a Latina female suddenly starts running towards the Build-a-Bear workshop and within it she sees her daughter laying there barely my god Sophia? Sophie?!" The Latina; Callie Torres yells as she starts getting closer, with Arizona Robbins and Derek Sheppard right behind her. "I'm going to kill that bastard!" Callie angrily yells. A small tap on her shoulder and she slowly turns her head towards another familiar figure on the ground. Anger quickly turned into something else as her wife starts shaking beside her. "Call..iope? Look." Arizona whimpers "It's Cristina!" Derek yells from beside them.
"My god. What happened to you Cristina?" Derek whispers as he kneels down next to her ignoring the red pool his knees hit. "Derek! I think that's the guy! What do you think happened?" Arizona cries pointing to the barely conscious man beside Cristina. Derek shakes his head as he stares down at Cristina's bloody form. "Der..." Cristina whispers hoarsely. "Shh. You got to save your strength Cris." He softly tells her. Cristina lightly smiles before she breaks down. "Sophie is she..?" "She's fine Cristina..." no response "Cristina?! No, no wake up" Arizona panics. "Shush you're hurting my ears!" Cristina laughs lightly as she gives a small hiss of pain.
"You really think you're funny!" Callie angrily yells stomping towards them. "This is ALL your fault!" Callie walks towards Cristina; ignoring the scared and worried look her wife was giving her. Slowly she walks over to Cristina until she was in front of her, and then punched her! "If she dies I'll make sure your life is hell!" "Calliope stop look!" Arizona yells at her wife and points to Cristina and then to the unconscious man just inches away from them. A gurgling noise quickly takes her attention then notices Cristina has started seizing. "Cris! Hurry Derek grab her head! Arizona please go back to Soph." Callie ordered while taking hold of Cristina's arm. 'Why am I helping her it's her fault isn't it?' Callie thought as she keeps hold of her maybe friend. "Shh, that's it. It's almost over." Callie cooed until finally the seizing stopped!
Moments later Cristina work up and said, "You're right Callie it's all my fault. Please just let me die? Go back to Sophia." Cristina couldn't bring herself to look straight in her eyes. "No I.." Before Callie could finish a group of paramedics came rushing over to them taking both her daughter, Cristina, and the man who caused all this away. "Please be alright Yang I don't know what I'd if something happened to you." With that Callie, Arizona and Derek rushed out of the shop with only one thought on each of their minds. 'What the hell happened here?'

"Cristina could you take Sophia with you tomorrow?" Callie asked. Cristina looks up from her paperwork about to tell her off just to see a very flustered looking Callie Torres. "May I ask why you want me to watch your spawn?" Cristina huffed, before taking notice of tears entering her eyes. "My dad, he uh had a stroke and I want to spend time with him and I have no idea when Arizona will be back from her trip." Cristina let out a sigh before saying. "Sure but don't be surprised if we return with a few toys. I swear one of these days I'm going to over spoil that kid."
Callie rolls her eyes before giving her a quick hug. "Thank you SO much Cristina you have no idea how much this really means to me." Surprisingly Cristina returned the hug! "I understand in fact why don't you drop Soph off tonight then you can spend the night with your dad." Callie's eyes sparkled. "Cristina other than my wife and kid you are absolutely my favorite person now!" Callie gave her one more hug before running off, but not before yelling, "Don't over work yourself Yang! Doesn't need Sophie knock you out within an hour do we?" With a laugh Callie turns towards the door and walks off.
"Ya ya" Cristina mumbles to herself as she turns her attention back to her paperwork. Fortunately or maybe not so much that didn't last long before Meredith came running in. "Whoa there Grey what's up?" Ever since April's wedding gone wrong Meredith and Cristina had slowly but surely been making up for the time they were fighting. "Nothing much but a new intern has acted very weird and I thought I'd hide in here." Meredith replied slightly out of breath. Cristina couldn't help but roll her eyes at this. "Oh yea cause no one is going to look in here. Not the office where you're best friend works at." Cristina says dryly. "Okay, okay I get your point. Just can I stay here for a while?" Meredith asked her.
'Well I'm defiantly not getting any more paperwork done now.' she thought sarcastically to herself. "Sure Mere take a seat. I have to leave in an hour that I can get ready to have Sophia tonight." Meredith gives her a grateful smile as she sits in the blue chair beside her. "SO what do you plan on doing with Sophia tonight?" Meredith asked, causing Cristina to grin. "Taking her shopping of course!" Cristina says happily. Meredith gave a laugh before saying, "I never get how you hate shopping for yourself but when it comes to Sophia, Zola, or Bailey you're like a shopping Nazi!" Cristina sticks out her tongue before shyly looking back down at her paperwork.
"Truthfully I just love them. You, Callie, Arizona and even Derek are family. I love those kids as if they are my nieces and nephews by blood." Cristina pauses for a moment before continuing. "I get that Owen will always be pissed off that I didn't want kids but look at him, now he's happy with Emma and a baby on the way. I'm happy for him and I a realization came to me lately." Cristina said mused. "Yea and what's that?"
"I'm in love with..."
