We will give it a try.
AN: This is my own interpretation on what happened when Arizona and Sofia landed in New York. I hope you like it.
"Mommy are you going to be here when I wake up in the morning?" Sofia asked her blonde mom as she lay in bed while her mom sat next to her.
Callie had picked Arizona and Sofia up from the airport. All three girls spent the better part of the day getting reacquainted with one another, by going out to eat, walking around Time Square, and just being around one another. It was almost as if they were a family again, at least that's what Miss Sofia was shooting for. She was over the moon happy that she had both of her moms in the same city. Not only were they in the same city they were also talking and laughing with each other. What more could a girl ask for?
Now they all found themselves at Callie's house. Callie was straightening up after movie night that Sofia insisted had to happen before going to bed. Arizona was tucking in the said little girl before making her way to the hotel. "I don't think so sweetheart. I need to get home and get things organized." Taking her daughters hand Arizona looked into her daughters beautiful brown eyes and said; "But I can guarantee you one thing."
Scrunching up her eyebrows with confusion laced throughout her Sofia asks; "What's that?"
Cupping her daughters cheek, she thinks to herself how lucky she got to have a daughter so sweet. "The one thing I can guarantee you is that if I'm not here I will be close by. I'm only a phone call away." That got a dimpled smile out of her.
Sofia seemed content with that answer. With an I love you she rolled over and closed her eyes. Sofia had all kinds of questions for her moms, but she figured she would wait until tomorrow to inquire about them. Arizona decided to wait a few minutes before exiting her daughters room just to ensure her daughter was truly ok and asleep.
Gathering her purse and the items she purchased, Arizona attempted to make a nice and clean exit. After all this was her ex wife's place. She was about out the door when she heard the familiar voice. "Going so soon?" Callie questioned. She hoped not. Callie really enjoyed her day with Sofia and Arizona, and if you knew the truth she didn't want it to end.
Arizona halted her footsteps. "Well… Sofia is down for the night and I just assumed I would go to my place. I don't want to intrude on you anymore than I already have."
"Arizona, I meant what I said. I couldn't wait to see you. From the time of our divorce until now I knew in my heart that something was missing. I had tried to ignore it, but the longer I waited the more inevitable it became that you are and were the missing piece to my heart." Taking a step forward she grabbed the blondes hand. Hoping that what she was saying was really sinking into the blondes heart. "Arizona, I want to try us again. I miss you. An-an-and I love you, and I know without a doubt that you are the only one I want to be with. Come hell or high water I will fight to get you back.
Shocked, didn't even describe how Arizona was feeling right now. Sure she knew from the texts that she had been receiving from her ex that was maybe wanting to try again, but this? Callie's some speech left her speechless. Tears streamed down the blondes face. She was stuck. She wanted to try, but she was also scared. Arizona knew that when she cheated it hurt Callie in more ways than she could think of, but what her ex did to her during the custody battle in her mind was worse. "Look Callie in my heart of hearts I have always and will probably always love you. I am trying my best to block out what you said about me during the custody battle, because I do want to be with you. I always have and I always will, but at the same time I really don't want to get hurt again…"
Calle knew that they belonged together, she knew that she hurt Arizona petty bad, but she also knew that she would spend the rest of her life trying to make up for it. No matter how long it took. So, she interjected what Arizona was trying to say. "Arizona, I would never hurt you…" Before she could go on Arizona placed 2 fingers on Callie's lips.
"Please before you talk let me finish what I wanted to say." Callie nodded in agreement and Arizona continued; "I know that I hurt you when I cheated on you. I could see that it tore you apart as it did me. You have to understand that what you did to me also tore me apart. You made me out to be a horrible slutty mom. But, I am not going to continue on with making you feel guilty. We both have had time to heal from our mistakes. What I want to propose is that instead of rushing things we take things slow. We can start out as friends. Even though we already know alot about each other, alot of time has passed. I want us to relearn everything about each other. I want us to actually listen to what we have to say to one another and no more jumping the gun. We need to hear each other out before jumping to conclusions. I want us to do this right this time." Arizona hoped that Callie would agree to her sentiments because she really did want to do this right this time.
Callie had tears in her eyes. As much as she wanted to jump into a relationship with the blonde she knew she was right. She also wanted to do this right so she would go at Arizona's pace. "I agree. I want to do this right."
Both women were happy with there results of the conversation and knew that in the feature they would be a happy family again.
