Chocolate414 here, I hope you all like the second chapter, this is a continuation of the first. Personally I've grown tired of Callie and Mark always having there way. So this fic is kind of like payback to the Grey's Anatomy writers. Haha hope you like it. Please tell me what you think. I could always use more reviews.
Arizona's attempt at driving could probably be defined as a drunk man's desperate attempt for killing himself. She's on the interstate going 85 miles per hour in a 60 miles per hour zone. Usually she'd care about getting a speeding ticket or being arrested for endangering the lives of others on the road.
But tonight she doesn't. The image of Mark Sloan impaling her Calliope over and over again has settled in her brain and while she wishes that she could erase this thought without question and dream about something else.
She can't...
She can't because the worst thing that could have come out of Mark Sloan fucking her woman happened. He got her pregnant. For the life of her she didn't know what the two of them were thinking. She knows they didn't do this on purpose.
Or maybe they did.
Lets be realistic here. The brunette and the man whore wanted children and Arizona's pretty sure that Calliope is not going to abort this baby. They both get what they want and Arizona... Arizona gets nothing.
She gets to here "I told you so" from her colleagues.
She gets to be the laughing stock of the medical world for leaving a multi million dollar grant for a woman who couldn't decide if she wanted men or women between her legs.
She gets the stink eye from Chief Webber.
She gets to lose more than ten thousand dollars of her hard earned money because lets face it that apartment's sub letter was not cheap, not to mention her ticket back from Malawi, or having all of belongings shipped home from another country, or the rental car she's been driving for the past two weeks because she sold her other one.
She doesn't want to hate them. She doesn't want to hate anyone but right now. In this moment. Three A.M. on a Friday, she does.
She hates Mark Sloan more than she ever did in her life and she HATES Calliope.
Arizona didn't recognize that she was off the interstate and was pulling up in somebody's apartment complex. Her body must have done the driving for her because her mind was thinking about other things. Opening the car door she recognizes where she is.
She's at Teddy's. Thank God.
"Come on Torres. Sit on the couch. I'm gonna go get you some tea. You just lay your head back. I'll be right back."
Mark Sloan rushed into the bathroom and got the box of tissues. He paused and looked in the mirror and saw Callie's still form sitting on the couch looking at the ceiling. What ever happened in that elevator destroyed his best friend. After Arizona practically ran out of the building Callie fell apart at the seams and he was left to pick up the pieces. If he saw blondie again he's pretty sure he wouldn't be able to hold back his temper. What ever she did to Callie pissed him the hell off. He could see his conversation with her all day today did nothing to fix Arizona's attitude. Mark calmed himself and brought a fake smile to his lips. Callie didn't need him stressing her out more with all of his anger.
He walked into the living room and gave Callie the box of tissues. He watched as the brunette's tears continued to fall and she didn't say a word.
"You wanna talk about it. Whatever Arizona did, just know she doesn't deserve you. Your to good for her anyway." Mark wished he knew what the hell may have happened. He didn't know how to fix this mess.
"Don't Mark" It was the first thing Callie had said in over an hour. "Don't say that about Arizona... I just...We just.." She didn't know how to explain. The look in Arizona's eyes would plague her for a long time. She'd never seen someone so destroyed.
God what had she done.
Mark was looking at her full of concern and she felt guilt build within her. She had to tell him.
"We had an argument. I told her something and I don't think she'll want me back. I think she's going to leave... for good." It took everything in the brunette to say the last sentence. The realization that Arizona may leave her completely because of this weighed heavy on her chest. New tears began to well in her eyes and Mark pulled her in for a hug.
"We'll find a way to fix this. What did you tell her I'm sure that whatever it is, the two of you can find a way past it." Mark saw Callie give him a look and then it dawned on him what may have happened.
"You told her about the sorbet?" Callie nodded. That wasn't the only thing she told Arizona. "No wonder she looked like she wanted to kill me." Callie wiped her tears with the tissues and laid back on the pillow. Mark stood and walked to the kitchen.
"She can't be angry with you. You two weren't together and she has no right to judge especially after what she pulled." Mark said that with fake pride but in the back of his head he could only wonder what the blonde would do to him the next time she saw him. He remembered her glare all to well, blondie was pissed.
In fact pissed was probably and understatement. Callie pushed her body off the couch and walked into the kitchen. She needed to tell Mark and she was going to do it now. She looked at her surroundings and realized where she stood.
She suddenly felt sick and ran into the bathroom. Mark rushed behind her and lifted the toilet for her. Holding her hair so she wouldn't get throw up on it, Mark looked around the bathroom as the brunette regurgitated everything that she ate that day. His eyes suddenly stopped and focused on something in the trash can.
Was that a pregnancy test? Looking closer he saw the words PREGNANT in big bold letters. He then looked at Callie who finished throwing up and sat her against the wall. The brunette wiped her mouth on a tissue and stared at Mark.
"Your pregnant!" Mark didn't mean to yell but, he couldn't help it. "Callie are you pregnant?" She nodded and watched as her best friend's face consorted to a myriad of looks. He started off as worried, then mad, angry, worried again, and then happy. The biggest smile appeared on Mark's face. "Your pregnant"
"Callie's pregnant" While the brunette was puking her guts out neither she or Mark realized that someone had walked in the apartment.
They needed to start locking the door to this place.
Mark stepped out of the bathroom and was met with Teddy's surprised face. Calliope rushed out the bathroom and saw Teddy standing there and knew she must have come because of Arizona.
She'd never seen Teddy glare at anyone before and didn't like how the older woman was giving her that look.
Could this day get any worse? She really thought Arizona would accept her and the baby. She had this small amount of hope that she'd been clinging to since she took the test that morning.
"What the hell is the matter with you two? Do you have any idea what you have done? Did either one of you think about what would happen if you had unprotected sex only a few weeks after Arizona left? God, the two of you are idiots." Teddy was livid. Not as much as Arizona but damn near close.
"Look it was our decision and you may not agree with it but..." Mark tried to explain but Teddy cut him off.
"No... You shut the hell up Mark." Teddy was so frustrated she could pull her hair out. She began pacing back and forth. She suddenly turned and looked at Callie. "Do you have any idea how long I've been trying to talk Arizona into coming back here? Since you were so unhappy about moving to Malawi and you told her every chance you got, you ruined it for her. She wanted to come back but she was afraid that you hated her. The first week she was there, she wrote me saying that she hated it and that she couldn't stand being there without you. She asked me everyday how you were doing." Callie stood there shocked and more tears began to fall. She didn't know this. Teddy never told her.
"You never told me." Callie yelled. Had she known she would have gone to Malawi to bring Arizona back herself.
"Arizona didn't want you to know." Teddy saw the sad look in those brown eyes but she didn't have any pity for the other two people in this room. They made there bed and now they had to lay in it. And since everything was already shot to hell, she mind as well tell Callie everything else. "She got you your job back Callie. Her first week in Malawi she called Chief Webber and begged him, saying it was all her fault. She's the reason why you were able to get back into the swing of things so quickly." Teddy shook her head at the both of them. "And you. Have you even thought about Lexi in all of this? What do you think is going to happen when she finds out?" Mark had no answer to give. He was so excited about having a baby, that he forgot all about Lexi. What was he going to do?
Seeing that both Mark and Callie were now clearly distraught, Teddy turned to leave but not before she said one more thing.
"For the past few weeks Arizona has been going through hell trying to win you back. And you've done absolutely everything you can to turn her away." She turned to Mark and gave him a glare. "And your stunts all day today were a blow to her pride. If it was your plan to completely ruin her, then I'll say you succeeded." Mark opened his mouth to say something but shut it when he noticed the look the brunette was giving him. "I don't think Arizona will get over this Callie, so if you want her back you need to do something now." Teddy turned and left.
The room was silent. Calliope walked in front of Mark and gave him a look.
"What did you do?" She could only pray it wasn't something that would totally destroy what ever she had left with Arizona. After everything she just learned, she felt like a total bitch.
Arizona couldn't bring herself to knock on Teddy's door. She'd been standing outside for half an hour but couldn't walk away from her car door. She unlocked her car and slid in. She drove away, right as Teddy was pulling into the parking lot.
The blonde focused on the road and drove herself to Joe's. She needed to get drunk tonight.
She needed an escape.
