I own none of the people in the story. This is all just for fun. Sorry about the grammer errors. Enjoy, if you want me to continue tell me in the reviews.
Callie's Point of View
It was another gloomy day in Seattle. There were puddles everywhere from the door pour that stopped a few minutes ago. Even if it stopped it wouldn't be stopped for to long. It looked like it was about to rain once again.
I walked to Joe's as fast as my tired legs could carry me. After a very exhausting night in the hospital a drink was exactly what I needed to take my mind off everything. Arizona and I have been working on things. We still have a lot to go over, but at least we are working through it.
I walk into Joe's and inhale the smell that always seems to calm me. The smell of cheap perfume and alcohol. I order a beer and make my way to sit down at a booth. As much as I want to be alone right now I wish Arizona was here. She still manages to bring a smile to my face even after what she did.
Yes at first I was angry, but that happened over seven months ago. My father was right when he said that you don't walk away, you work harder. He may not have supported me and Arizona in the beginning, but I am sure glad he does now. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't be where we are now.
Half an hour goes by and I catch a glimpse of two blonds. I look up and see it's Arizona with someone else. They sit down at the bar and order. They seem to be lost in conversation and laughing to each other. My hands tighten around my beer bottle. She better not be cheating on me again.
Another half an hour goes by and they are both still lost in conversation. I can't keep my eyes off them. I don't notice someone has come up next to me until they clear their throat. I look up to find a very tall woman with coco brown colored hair, thin eyebrows and glasses. If I wasn't trying to make it work with Arizona I would totally hit on her.
"I couldn't help but notice you staring at the two at the bar all night."
"Oh, yeah my um...close friend is talking to the other and I don't know who she is."
"Can I sit down?"
"Yeah sure go ahead." Jamie sat down across from me.
"You have nothing to worry about."
"What do you mean?"
"The girl sitting next to your friend...that's my girlfriend Alice. I can tell you and the other girl are together the way you have been shooting daggers at Alice."
"Oh I didn't realize I was staring that hard."
"Don't worry about it, so what's the story? Why aren't you up there with your girlriend?"
"It's a really long complicated story." I say taking a sip of my beer.
"I've got time, so what happened?" Jamie asked raising her eyebrow.
"She cheated on me after we were getting over a tough time. We are just starting to really fix things and she hasn't seen me. Plus now she is with your girlfriend so I didn't want to interupt."
"Oh none sense, I want to get to know this girlfriend of yours. I'm Jamie by the way." Jamie said extending her hand to me.
"Callie," I replied taking her hand and giving it a shake.
"How about I go get us both something to drink and I bring our ladies back?"
"Okay sure we can do that."
"Great I will be right back." Jamie said as she got up to leave.
"Oh god please help me." I say as I see Arizona and the other woman approaching me.
Arizona's Point of View
I was just getting out of my last surgery. It had been a long day of saving tiny humans. We almost lost a newborn due to problems with her heart, but we were able to fix it in time before anything serious happened. I went into the locker room to get changed and took my time. I've been on my feet all day and I needed to take it slow.
Once I was changed I made my way outside. It seemed to really down pour recently, there were giant puddles everywhere. I looked up at the sky and saw it was about to rain again.
"Crap, well it is Friday and I've been working all day. A drink sounds good right about now." I say to myself as I make my way to Joe's. About half way to Joe's I see a couple making their way towards Joe's as well. They stopped, the taller one kissed the other and left.
I kept walking trying not to stare at them. It always made me feel warm inside to see another lesbian couple showing their love. Just as I was about into Joe's I heard someone speak.
"Hey are you Arizona Robbins?"
I turned towards the voice and saw it was the girl who was left by their girlfriend. "Yeah I am Arizona Robbins."
The girl ran up to me. "I'm Alice, you helped my friends son. He had a really bad broken arm and you looked him over. Same with another doctor, she was a Latina."
"Oh you mean Callie yeah she works in ortho."
"I just wanted to say thank you for helping him. I know it's your job and all but it means a lot."
"Oh your welcome." I smiled at her.
"Would you like to get a drink seeing as how we are right in front of a bar?"
"Sure I would love to."
"Mike told me that he saw you rolling through the halls. It's all he could talk about for days. He kept trying to convince his mom to buy him a pair."
I laughed, "yeah they are pretty cool. At first all the other doctors thought I was crazy for wearing them. One called me roller girl because of it."
We both laughed as we entered Joe's and sat down at the counter. We ordered our drinks and soon became lost in conversation. As we were talking the girl that I saw earlier with Alice came over.
"Well Alice looks like you made a friend." Jamie said smiling. "How about you join me and my new friend? She's sitting in the booth over there by herself.
I looked through the bar and saw Callie sitting by herself. Crap, how could I not see Callie sitting there? I got off the stool and walked over to Callie and sat down next to her.
"Hey Calliope I didn't see you here. How long have you been here?"
"About an hour or so, who's your new friend?"
"This is Alice." I said as Alice sat down across from me and Callie.
"It's a pleasure to see you again. You helped friends son with a really nasty broken arm."
"It's not problem, it's what I do. Fix bones like a god." Callie said with one of her award winning smiles.
Jamie came back and placed beers in front of everyone. "I didn't know what everyone wanted so I went with beers."
"Thanks..." I say not knowing her name.
"It's Jamie. So tell me what do you two do for a living?"
"I'm an orthopedic surgeon and Arizona is a peds surgeon."
"Oh very interesting. Sounds like an exciting job. Always something new, not knowing what everyday will hold."
"It is, also very rewarding knowing you have saved someone's life. What do you two do?" I ask while I take a sip of my beer.
"Alice owns a company with her friend that sells soaps. I export expensive things for companies."
"It must be hard work knowing someone relies on you to ship their very expensive item. Knowing you are the one to blame if there is something wrong with it in any way." Callie said.
"I had lots of practice I used to be in the drug cartle exporting large amounts of heroin worldwide." Jamie said casually like it was nothing."
Callie's eyes bugged out and I almost spit my beer everywhere. "You...you did what?"
"I used to export large amounts of heroin across the world. I traveled a lot where I recruited mules. It's how I meet Alice actually, she was at a bar when I was some people in the business. Alice then followed me wherever I went."
"Do...do you still do it now?" I stuttered out.
"Oh no, we got caught and thrown in jail. Alice did one run and I was angry at her so I ratted her out. Alice left me when my mother died so it was the only revenge I could think of. I haven't touched heroin in a very long time. Now I just export items for companies. It always me to still use the skills I learned but in a legal way."
"Well that's good you aren't doing it anymore. I couldn't imagine what it would be like living a life where you could be thrown in jail at any moment" Callie said.
"It was rather exciting. It made you live your life to the fullest because you never knew if tomorrow would come where you could be a free woman. I honestly wouldn't change that part of my life because I meet Alice." Jamie smiled at Alice and kissed her gently.
"Even though we were caught I couldn't imagine my life without Jamie. We both have made mistakes in our lives, but we learned even with the mistakes we were meant to be together."
Those words hit me hard. The mistakes I've made and the mistakes Callie has made shouldn't stop us. We always come back together and get through it. Even when I slept with Leah Callie was the one who always held my heart. I looked up at Callie and saw in her eyes she was thinking the same thing. I took Callie's hand and laced our fingers together. I was meant to be with Callie forever even with our mistakes we will get through them together.
After a few hours of talking we all exchanged numbers and left the bar. Sophia was with Mark and Lexie tonight so we didn't have to worry about waking her up to bring her home. I held Callie's hand while we walked back to our apartment. When we got into our apartment we sat down on the couch together.
"Arizona do you think that our mistakes define us as a couple?"
"No I think that they were just roadblocks in our path. We can get over them together though no matter what they are. I know that...I hurt you a lot over the last year or two. I wanna say I'm sorry...I never should have slept with her." Tears started to form in my eyes and there was nothing I could do to stop them from flowing.
"She never held my heart you did. I was to wrapped up in my leg being gone I never saw you being there. I only saw you as wanting someone I wasn't anymore." Tears were streaming down my face.
"Hey." Callie said as she lifted my chin gently."Look at me." I did my best to look back in her eyes. "I know you didn't mean to. At the time no I didn't I was angry. I didn't take the time to see why you would cheat all I know is she had her hands on you. She made you feel things only I should make you feel. I've had time to look back and after what Jamie and Alice said I think I know where I belong and that's with you."
"Callie...I just...I'm sorry." I placed my head on Callie and continued to cry.
"I know...shhh it's okay." Callie said as she rubbed my back. "We're gonna get through this together okay?"
"Okay..."
"I love you Arizona."
"I love you too Calliope."
