A/N:
CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM 9X01
A quick one shot I wrote right after I watched 9x01. My heart is literally broken. I have very few words to describe the premiere. I am disappointed in the way it was portrayed. Mark Sloan will be missed. Callie sobbing killed me. Arizona's leg...
-Sarah
"Nothing goes as planned, everything will break."
The first thing that registers is the searing pain in my leg.
My head is spinning and my throat feels like I swallowed a cup of sand.
I hear whispering.
Leg. Pain. Future.
I recognize the voice.
I try to move, but gasp in pain.
My eyes shoot open and through the blurry tears I see Callie running to my side.
"Arizona? Baby. You're awake. I'm here, it's okay." Callie said grabbing my hand and brushing the sweaty hair out of my face.
Tears stream down my face.
I don't know if it's from the pain, or the fact that I thought I would never see Callie again.
She wipes my tears with the backside of her hand.
A nurse comes in and pushes a syringe into my IV bag and a warm rush overcomes my body.
I fight the blackness.
I don't want to leave her again.
I can't leave her again.
"L-love you." I say, my voice hoarse.
"I love you too." Callie says kissing my hand. "It's going to be okay, we're going to be okay."
Then it registers…
"My leg?" I ask.
A wave of pain flashes across Callie's face, and I see the sadness in her eyes.
"Callie?" I ask again.
"I tried." She says looking down, a tear falling from her face.
"Tried what? What's wrong Callie. Your scaring me." I say.
"I did everything I could Arizona, but the infection was too much." Callie said.
My heart starts to race.
"I'm sorry." Her voice says cracking.
I pull the sheet from the bed.
"Everything will break."
No.
"No." I whisper.
"Arizona." Callie interrupts.
"No." I say louder.
"Baby please." Callie pleads.
"NO." I shout. "NO! My leg." I cry.
"It's going to be okay Arizona." Callie says.
"No it's not, my leg is gone Callie!" I cry, pushing her away.
"Arizona please." Callie says.
"I want to go home!" I yell, fussing with my IV, sobs shaking my shoulders.
Callie grabs my shoulders.
"I WANT TO GO HOME. MY LEG IS GONE." I cry, hitting her, pushing her away.
Callie hit's the nurses button.
I turn onto my side, pulling the wires with me, machines beeping and buzzing.
I gasp at the pain that sears through my body.
"I'm sorry Arizona." Callie whispers.
"Do it." She says.
I feel a pinch in my arm, my head feeling light.
Everything starts going black.
"I'm so sorry Arizona." Callie cries.
I close my eyes.
"People say goodbye in their own special way."
My leg.
