A/N : Sorry for the long wait guys. I appreciate the reviews, favorites, and follows. Hope you enjoy this update.
This storm is getting worse by the minute, as doctors rush to beat its strength and brutality. There's not a single calm person in the hospital as concern starts to rise.
Both Callie and Arizona were highly upset at this point, both avoiding eye contact if possible. Alex, and Miranda both notice the tension as they work on another mess.
" Uh Arizona...you ok ?"
Not trusting her voice, Arizona gives Alex a look that says just shut up please. He nods taking the hint, not daring to test Arizona's racked nerves already. Seeing Alex's
failed attempt, Miranda looks at Callie deciding to be brave.
" Dr. Torres...what's going on ?"
Callie's brown eyes flash with anger at Miranda as she grits her teeth.
" None of your business Dr. Bailey. Now let's just get this done."
Miranda is shocked but decides it best not to push. Suddenly the loud shattering of a window is heard, so all four go running over.
Then suddenly a gust of wind blows, sending a tree flying in. Everyone jumps back but then here a loud scream of pain. Callie looks down in horror to see the tree as fell on Arizona's stomach. Callie doesn't hesitate to begin lifting it off with the help of Owen and Alex. Miranda gets a gurney and they put Arizona on it. Callie speaks to her in a panick.
" Arizona, are you ok ? Please tell your ok !"
She nods but cringes at pain in her stomach.
" Why...why do you care ? You shouldn't."
" I DO care because your still my wife. Now let's get you somewhere somewhat calm to be checked out. That tree was big and hit you hard."
Alex and Miranda exchange looks of confusion, at both Callie and Arizona's words. They follow Callie as she rolls Arizona to X-Ray. Thankfully, there's no damage just bruising.
Callie's pager beeps. It's the daycare.
" Damn it. Arizona, Miranda will take you to a room to rest. Gotta go to the daycare."
" Ok. Everything ok ?"
" I don't know. See you later."
Callie rushes to the daycare, only to see the day care worker rocking an upset crying Sofia.
" Oh God. Sofia baby, what's wrong honey ?"
" Mommy...me...me scared."
Sighing, Callie takes Sofia in her arms.
" Listen to mommy. Nothing bad is gonna happen to you. The noises you hear is just God playing ball in heaven. Ok ?"
" Dada ?"
Callie gulps at the mention of Mark.
" Yes baby with daddy."
" Me go with momma ?"
Callie cringes, Sofia is referring to Arizona. Though she had to admit, Sofia would be safer. Regardless of Arizona cheating, Sofia was still her daughter.
" Yeah come on. I'll take you to momma."
Reaching Arizona's room, both Arizona and Miranda are shocked to see the toddler. Callie sits Sofia on the bed with Arizona.
" Callie what's go ?"
" She got scared in the day care. I want her here with you."
" But I have to work Callie."
" No, Owen cleared you for the night. Stay right here with our daughter. Don't screw this up Arizona. Page me if you need something."
Without another word Callie walks out. Miranda follows immediately.
" Wait . Where's Dr. Boswell ?"
Callie feels her blood boil as she spins around with anger.
" Hopefully anywhere but here. She better not be here."
With that said, Callie storms off. Shaking her head, Miranda follows.
Going back into the front, Callie stops dead in her track when she sees Dr. Boswell standing there soaked from head to toe.
" Hey ."
" You've got one minute to get the hell out of my hospital."
" What are you talking about ?"
Callie charges at the young blonde in anger, pushing her against the wall.
" Bitch, you tried to seduce MY wife. Don't you dare play stupid !"
" I don't know..."
Before anyone can do anything, Callie has Dr. Boswell on the ground punching her. Alarmed, Owen pulls her off.
" Dr. Torres ! Dr. Torres ! Stop ! Go to Dr. Avery's office now and wait there !"
" But she..."
" I don't care, go now !"
Out of breath, Callie does as she's told. Everyone looks on in shock. Owen looks at Dr. Boswell.
" One of our interns will check you out then you will leave and not come back. Understood ?"
" Yes sir."
Back in Dr. Avery's office, Jackson looks at Callie in disbelief.
" So let me get this straight. Dr. Boswell kissed Dr. Robbins your wife, and that is why you started fighting her ?"
" Yes Dr. Avery that's right."
" While I don't agree with cheating, I have no choice but to put you on paid leave. Both you and Dr. Robbins for two weeks."
" But Dr. Avery..."
" Dr. Torres, I can't have this behavior in my hospital. So when the storm clears, you and Dr. Robbins leave and don't come back to work for fourteen days."
" Yes sir. I understand."
" Good. Now go be with Dr. Robbins. Your off duty."
Nodding, Callie gets up and leaves.
Getting to Arizona's room, she walks in tired.
" Callie, aren't you supposed to working ?"
" Neither one of us will be for fourteen days. I got in a fist fight with Dr. Boswell."
" You what ? Callie I didn't want you to do that."
" Should thought about that before. Let's not talk about this now with Sofia here."
" Ok I agree, but when we get home..."
" Yes we'll talk about it in private."
Five hours later, the storm comes to an end. Callie, Arizona, and Sofia go home. The car ride is slow and silent, as both women have different emotions.
Getting inside the apartment, it's now 6:35 am. Arizona sits on the couch while Callie puts Sofia in her crib. Going back into the living room, Callie sits in on
opposite loveseat and looks at Arizona.
" Arizona we have a big problem. It's effected our work and marriage greatly. Why did you do this ?"
Hearing the sadness in Callie's voice broke Arizona's heart, but for once she had an answer.
" It made me feel like me again. Alive and whole, not broken and damaged."
" If you love me, how come I don't make you feel like that ?"
" I'm afraid...have been afraid, to let down my walls with you. I have PTSD, and I didn't wanna make it worse Callie."
" And cheating doesn't ?"
" I just felt so lost, I...I didn't know what to do. Everything is different for me now."
" Oh believe me Arizona I know. But that does not give you the right to break our vows. Your supposed to lean on me not cheat on me."
" I know but why did you punch Dr. Boswell Callie ?"
" Because she deserved it and more. We have worked so hard to get where we are as a couple. Now that bitch has put us on the rocks."
" So what do we do now Callie ?"
" We go on a trip away from here because if this marriage is gonna survive, we need to work through this alone. Without our friends input."
" I agree. So where are we gonna go ?"
" Arkansas. My father owns a cabin there. We'll leave Sofia with Meredith and Derek. It's just needs to be me and you for once."
" Ok, but how will we explain this ?"
" They don't need to know exactly why. That's none of Meredith's and Derek's business. We'll just tell them we need to get away."
Arizona nods knowing better than to argue. Callie calls Derek and explains briefly and he agrees they to keep Sofia for a week.
They pack their suitcases to leave the next morning when things have cleared up more. The night continues on pretty quiet.
The next morning around 9:00 am, Callie and Arizona get up to explain to Sofia. Of course Sofia does not like it.
" Sofia Robbin Sloan Torres. Your going and that's final."
Hearing Callie's tone of voice, Sofia stops her tantrum.
After eating breakfast, Callie and Arizona drop Sofia off at the daycare at the hospital. They kiss her goodbye and leave quickly.
Getting to the airport, they take a seat after going through security. Finally their plane is called, and Arizona panics.
" Arizona, you'll be ok I promise. Let's go. I'll be with you the whole time."
Nervously, Arizona walks with Callie on the plane. Once seated, Arizona can't stop shaking. Looking at Arizona, Callie realizes this is worse than she thought.
Whatever happened in those woods, was worse than I can imagine. I hope we can work through this because I need her.
