"Are we 100% sure this is a good idea?" Callie asked, the nerves in her voice obvious.

"Calliope she'll be fine. It's not as if we're leaving her with a stranger. He's her father, a double board certified surgeon as he so often likes to mention," Arizona joked. Although used to leaving her daughter to go to work, she'd never spent a night apart from her.

Tightening her arms around her baby, Callie smiled. "I know but I'm just so scared that something will go wrong if we leave her!"

"I get that, I do. But she's fine, she's healthy and strong aren't you baby girl." Arizona said playing with her daughters tiny fingers. "Mark'll call us if he needs anything, and you need to relax and enjoy the amazing evening we're gonna have together."

Arizona had persuaded Callie to let Mark babysit so they could spend an evening being a couple, something they hadn't done since before the crash. The crash that nearly cost them their lives. It hadn't been easy but eventually Callie realised that she would have to leave her daughter for more than an hour, especially if she wanted to go back to work.

Callie nuzzled into her daughter, "Your mommies are gonna miss you so much. But you gonna have fun with daddy?"

"She sure is, while her mommies spend an evening talking about her! I'm gonna go take a shower before Mark gets here." Arizona gave a kiss to both her girls before heading to their bathroom. Although she was used to leaving her daughter for work, it didn't get easier.

"So everything is in here Mark," Callie said passing Mark a huge bag for Sofia.

"You do realise I have all this stuff at mine already?" Mark replied laughing at Callie's protectiveness.

"I know, but just in case."

"Just in case the whole apartment goes up in flames and we have to run for our lives?" Mark joked, deliberately winding Callie up

"Not funny Mark," Callie responded, hitting him on the shoulder.

"Seriously, we'll be fine. Go, have fun. You both look great, go and enjoy the peace!"

"Call if you need anything Mark. Bye baby girl, we love you, see you tomorrow." Arizona said kissing her daughter goodbye.

With a slight tear forming in Callie's eyes, she hugged her daughter tighter than ever before. "I love you so so much and I'm gonna miss you so bad." Placing a kiss on Sofia's forehead, she began to pass her to Mark. "Just one more hug!"

"Seriously Torres go! Robbins grab your girl before she changes her mind!"

"Fine, fine we're going! Take care of her Mark or I will break you!" Callie threatened, half joking.

Half an hour later than planned, the two were on their way to their favourite restaurant. Although leaving Sofia was hard for them they were both pleased to spend some time together for the first time in months. It finally felt as though they could move on from everything that had happened and be a normal family.

As soon as they had arrived, Callie had called to check up on Mark and Sofia.

"Everything ok?" Arizona asked.

"Yeah she's sleeping. Time to try and relax!" Callie replied, breathing a sigh of relief.

Arizona reached out for Callie's hand. "I'm so proud of you Calliope. I mean it's hard for normal mom's to leave their child, but after everything that you went through it's even harder"

Feeling herself welling up, Callie attempted to form words but instead settled for a half smile for her fiancé.

"Hey hey hey don't cry!" Arizona said, feeling every bit of Callie's emotions.

"I'm just so happy that's all. So happy that we have our family, so happy that our daughter has such an amazing Mom"

Smiling at Callie's words, Arizona responded, "Her other mom's pretty great too."

"And Mark too," Callie remembered.

"Yeah she's lucky to have three parents that love her so much, I mean some of the kids I see don't even have one parent let alone three. And you know what? I think Mark's gonna be a pretty awesome dad."

"Me too, it's so obvious how much he loves her. She's definitely gonna turn into a daddy's girl!"

"Hopefully not too bad although he already spoils her so bad!" Arizona said, thinking of the extravagant nursery Mark had created in his apartment. "So now that we're managing our first night away from her, we need to make a schedule for Mark to have her."

"I know, it's gonna be difficult with work though. But I definitely want him to have an equal share."

Arizona nodded in agreement. "It's only fair."

"How about we try and talk about something else? Take my mind off how much I miss her so we can have a nice night," Callie laughed. "Like how hot I think you look when you dress up?"

After a nice evening together, even managing not to call Mark every five minutes, the two were in the hallway in their apartment block.

"Would it be so bad if we just went in and kissed her goodnight?" Callie asked.

"I'm so glad you asked, I've been dying to all night!"

Lightly knocking on the door to Mark's apartment, he answered.

"Look no flames! We survived," Mark laughed.

"Shut up Mark," Callie replied playfully. "We just wanted to give her a kiss goodnight."

"She's in her crib, careful though she only just went back to sleep."

Walking over to their daughter, both women could feel their hearts warm at the sight of her.

"Night night baby girl, we'll see you in the morning." Arizona whispered kissing her lightly on the head.

"You are so cute when you sleep. See you tomorrow baby. We love you." Callie said, also whispering and kissing her in the same place.

Heading to the door, the two women said goodnight to Mark and headed to their apartment.

Lying in bed, neither of them could believe how quiet it seemed without their daughter sleeping next to them.

Wrapping herself around Arizona, Callie talked softly. "It feels so weird, but I'm glad we did it. I had an amazing time so thank you for making me do this."

"Thank you for coming with me. You are awesome."

"I love you," Callie smiled. "How about we carry on enjoying our night alone?"

Turning over to face Callie and placing a kiss on her lips, Arizona responded "That sounds like an amazing idea." A perfect ending to a perfect evening she thought to herself, life couldn't get much better than this.
