Summary- Arizona and Callie are enjoying their life as a stable couple living together but what happens when a person who has a grudge against Arizona comes to Seattle?
Arizona looked over at her sleeping girlfriend as she put on her watch. She knew Callie was exhausted. She had woken her up at three in the morning climbing into bed. Arizona looked at her watch and sighed. She hated the thought of looking into those pretty brown eyes of her tired girlfriend and telling her that she had to get up for another twelve to fifteen hour day at work. Arizona sat on the side of the bed and ran a hand through Callie's sleep tousled hair.
"Callie? Wake up, sweetheart." she said, running her hand along Callie's exposed arm.
"Hmm? What time is it?" Callie mumbled.
"Twenty pass seven."
Callie groaned, knowing she had to get up. "Don't wanna go. Too tired."
Arizona gave a small smile to Callie's child fit. "Sweetie, you have to go but maybe you could talk to the chief about cutting out early?"
"I'll try." Callie said into her pillow.
"I'm going to go in. I will see you at lunch?"
"K."
Arizona leaned in to give Callie a kiss on her cheek before standing up. As she walked towards to the door she pulled the blanket with her causing Callie to groan.
"I hate you." Callie yelled out.
"I love you too." Arizona smiled as she left the apartment.
Outside of Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital stood Tabatha Jenkins, who for the past four months had learned everything about this hospital and it's staff. One staff member in particular, Dr. Arizona Robbins, head of PEDS. She has waited six years for this moment. She watched Callie walk pass her to the nearest coffee cart and followed her.
"Cappuccino, please."
"Dr. Torres? Of Orthopedics?"
"That's me."
"Tabatha Jenkins." she extended her hand which Callie shook politely.
"Ms. Jenkins, is there something I can help you with?"
"Um, well I have this friend who broke his leg and I was wondering how long will it be before he can walk again?"
"Well, it depends on how fast his body heals and how bad the break is. Is he a patient here?"
"No, well he was but he was released. I was just concerned. Thank you Dr. Torres."
The two women shook hands again. Jenkins got five steps out when she turned back to Callie.
"Dr. Torres?"
Callie looked up. "Yes?"
"Are you seeing Dr. Arizona Robbins?"
Callie was surprised by the question but she was not ashamed to answer. "Yes, I am."
"Well, I'd like to give her something."
Callie was confused for a moment. Then suddenly everything seemed to go into slow motion. She saw the gun Jenkins had pulled but she felt herself not being able to move. Three bullets hit Callie, causing her to fall to the ground. She was speechless. She could hear screams and could see the beautiful blue sky but was completely stunned. She had been shot. She pressed her hands to her abdomen and could feel the blood running out of her. The next thing she saw was total darkness.
