Because of the overwhelming reviews and the many followers in such a short amount of time another chapter! Don't expect 2 chapter a day though, lol. Thank you so much for wanting me to continue the story! You guys are awesome! :) Again, enjoy.
Hunt started cutting her clothes off her body. Starting with her jeans and after that her shirt. 'Massive bleeding in the abdomen, book an OR, now!' he said losing control of his emotions. He bent his head over hers and looked at Callie. 'Callie, what happened' he whispered, clearly emotional.

She couldn't answer his question, she just couldn't. 'I fell down the stairs,' she sighed in pain. 'I told you already'. She tried to convince him and it seemed to work. 'Why didn't you tell Dr. Robbins your name?' or maybe not. Hunt was known for not just letting things go. 'Look at me, I'm a mess. I didn't want you guys to see me like this' Callie tried to turn it into a casual joke, even tried to let out a laugh which failed horribly cause it just hurt too damn much. 'Fine, let's go' Hunt told Kepner who was already standing at the foot end of her bed ready to go to the OR. 'Hold on,' She lifted her head to look around when her eyes found those of Dr. Robbins. Those beautiful deep blue eyes. 'Thank you,' she didn't really know what else to say. The PED's surgeon nodded, acknowledging her words but didn't say a word. 'Now we can go,' she whispered.

What an eventful night she had, first the emergency Appendectomy and then the badly hurt woman, or well, Callie. walking up behind her from that same patients bathroom. First thing she had done was check up on that patient and clean up the blood that was in the sink in his bathroom. She kept seeing Callie's face, everywhere she went. She decided to go up to the OR and sit in the gallery to see how her surgery went. Walking through the halls she saw drops of blood making a trail, wondering if they were hers. Finally reached the OR she walked up the steps into the gallery, she stood in front of the glass for a couple of minutes before sitting down. Dr. Hunt noticed her and nodded his head. She answered his nod by sticking up her hand. Walking over to the intercom she pushed the button, 'how is she?', releasing the button. 'She is pulling through, we got the bleed' he answered, relieve present in his voice. Thank god, Arizona sat down and watched them close her up and prep her for recovery.
Once Callie was in recovery everyone got back to work, accept her. She stayed with her not wanting her to wake up alone. Also because she didn't believe a word that the Latina had said about her falling down the stairs. It just didn't add up. Maybe her injuries did, but something felt off. She was sitting in one of those uncomfortable chairs they had in the patient room. They should really consider investing in more comfy chairs. Standing up she took of her lab coat and folded it so she had a soft surface to sit on. She was staring at Callie who was still unconscious after her surgery, they got rid of her clothes and dressed her with a surgery gown. Her arms were above the blanket and because of the short sleeves her skin was showing. There was bruising on her arms, which was unusual with falling down the stairs. Sure a bruise on your elbow or your underarm was common but these seemed to go around her arm. Curious as she was she stood up and walked to the other sight to check out her other arm surprised to find the exact same bruises. 'Damnit' she said out loud quickly covering her mouth not expecting that to come out. Same bruises on both arms. Arizona was a PED's surgeon, she has seen a lot of kids, like A lot. She knew the signs of child abuse. Bruises on the arms, on both arms usually meant that they had been grabbed. Was she pushed down the stairs? Or is this something else entirely? Her rant of thought was broken by a soft moan coming from Callie. Practically running back to the other side of her bed and sitting back in her chair moving it closer to the bed she grabbed her, not broken, hand. 'Callie?' she spoke softly. 'you're okay, you're back in recovery'. 'Dr. Robbins?' Callie asked sleepy. 'Yes, I'm here' she answered, letting a sigh of relieve 'but you can call me Arizona though' a smile appearing on her face.

God, my head hurts. She tried to move her hand to her head but failed and a moan of pain escaped from her lips. 'Callie?' she recognized that voice. 'You're okay, you're back in recovery'. Is that? 'Dr. Robbins?' a little bit confused of why she would be here. 'Yes, I'm here' she stopped for a second and Callie could hear her sigh 'But you can call me Arizona though'. Callie looked over and saw the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. A smile, with dimples, a genuine smile.
'Did they find the bleed?' she asked after a moment of silence. 'Yeah, your surgery went well'. Arizona was still holding her hand but Callie wasn't sure if she realized that. 'Why are you here?' she didn't want to seem cranky or anything she just really wanted to know. 'I just wanted to make sure you're okay after your fall down the stairs' the disbelieve clearly in her voice. 'Well, as you can see. I'm okay. Couple of days and I'll be back up on my feet, thank you for checking up on me though' She tried to smile as far as that was possible. 'Callie,' Arizona started and she just knew by the tone that this wasn't going to be good. 'Yes,' she answered just to be polite, knowing where this was going. 'What are those bruises on your arm?' Callie looked down at her arms, seeing them for herself, quickly covering them up which resulted in a jolt of pain shooting through her body. 'It's from the stairs,' she felt like a little kid who got caught stealing candy out of the jar in the kitchen. She saw Arizona take in a deep breath. 'Now, I might be blond but I'm not stupid. That are not bruises from falling down a stairs. Whenever you're ready to talk about what really happened, come find me. You did great at that to begin with' Arizona stood up and left the room. Leaving Callie and her train of thoughts behind. Someone was offering her a helping hand, was she going to take it? Can I trust her?
Please review, since I love them so much! :) I'll try to update tomorrow, can't make promises though! - B.
