I Was Made For You
Chapter 1
The sun was shining through the windows of Arizona's apartment that she lived in with Callie just has the alarm was going off. It was 6 am and she was getting ready to start a 24 hour shift in the pit today. She showered and got dressed for the long day ahead of her. Callie was already at the hospital since she had slept there. No sooner had she grabbed her coffee from the coffee cart did the patients start rolling in. She and April were running the ER today while Alex was on call. The ER was already slammed with patients with everything from basic stitches to children running a fever to crush injuries from car crash victims. Arizona needed a consult for a 15 year old male with a broken leg and a concussion from football practice and Callie just happened to be the consult. "You needed an ortho consult?" said Callie. Arizona locked eyes with Callie and for a split second nothing else mattered. It was like they were in their own little world. They got snapped back to reality when April came over and interrupted their little drift into lala land. It was now 3 pm and the chaos of the pit hadn't slowed down one bit.
Owen came in running alongside a gurney, with Meredith and Cristina by his side. The patient was a 30 year old male, severe crush injuries sustained in a car accident. "Page plastics and call the OR; tell them we are on our way up!" the trauma surgeon's voice boomed through the ER as he got on the elevator.
Back in bay 2, Callie and Arizona were examining the patient. "We are going to take Ryan for a CT to make sure he didn't sustain any severe brain damage and then we are going to take him up to surgery to fix his broken leg; looks like a transverse fracture to the tibia." Callie said to Arizona as they were handing the chart over to the nurse and went to check on other patients while an intern took Ryan for a CT.
After the successful surgery on Ryan, the duo went to the attending's lounge to get some food and change out of their navy blue scrubs and into their street clothes. They had been in the OR for a total of 14 hours between the two of them during their 24 hour shift. Callie took Arizona's hand and led her to an on call room. All Arizona wanted to do was get some sleep, but Callie had other things in mind. As soon as they were both in the on call room, Callie shut and lock the door behind her. She walked towards Arizona and looked into her beautiful blue eyes. She planted a kiss on soft lips and Arizona reciprocated the kiss. A kiss here, a hand underneath a top there, and within minutes the two were naked with each other in the on call room. Right now both Callie and Arizona were relieved that the door was locked because they were getting hot and sweaty with each other.
As soon as their love making session was over, there was a knock at the door. It was April wondering where Arizona was. Shit, they were so distracted with each other that they forgot Mark, Lexie, April, Jackson, Teddy, Alex, Jo, and Addison were paging them after their shifts were over. The group was going to head over to Joe's after a long shift in the hospital. Arizona and Callie quickly got dressed and Arizona opened the door. "I'm so sorry April. I was exhausted after my shift and I must have fallen asleep." April wasn't buying it when she saw Callie was in the room with her. She just rolled her eyes because it was obvious neither one of them was sleeping. Callie, Arizona, and April all headed to the elevators to head to Joe's to meet up with the rest of their group.
Arizona was nervous. Tonight was the night she was going to propose to Callie in front of all of their friends. She had bought a beautiful diamond ring for Callie a few months back and was hiding it away in her sock drawer. They had been together for a year and a half. She subconsciously started checking and patting her pockets to make sure the very expensive ring was still there. Money wasn't a problem for an orthopedic surgeon and a double board certified pediatric surgeon and ob/gyn, so she decided to splurge on this. It was a special occasion and Arizona thought Callie deserved the world and she would give it to her at no expense. The engagement ring Arizona picked out had a white gold band with a 3.5 ct princess cut diamond in the center and 1 ct diamonds in the band. She had gone with April and Mark to pick it out and it was perfect.
April walked in first and then Callie and Arizona walked in hand in hand into Joe's and found their group already at a table. They walked over and made their presence known. Callie went to the bar and ordered a round of shots for the table. As soon as she came back with the tray of shots, Arizona knew this was her moment. She cleared her throat and raised her glass in the air. "I have an announcement to make." Callie knitted her eyebrows in confusion. She wasn't aware of what was about to happen. Arizona finished the tequila that was in her glass, set the glass down on the table, pulled out the box she was hiding all night, opened it to show Callie the ring, and got down on one knee in front of Callie and all of their friends.
Callie brought her hands up to her mouth, let out a gasp, and tears formed in her brown eyes as she realized what was happening. "Calliope Torres" Arizona began her proposal. "You are the most beautiful, kind hearted, compassionate, caring, giving, selfless person I know. Your super magic smile lights up my world. Even when I'm having a bad day you are always there for me." Tears were now streaming down Callie's face. "You comfort me and support me and accept me even on my worst days. My world would be nothing without you. You are the light of my life and bring sunshine even when it's dark. You are the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with, grow old with, and have babies with. I want to be your wife and you be my wife. I love you so much. So, Calliope Torres, will you marry me?"
