Okay, so this is just a quick little filler chapter to excuse my absence, I should be back to writing regularly now. I'm sorry for any and all mistakes, I'm super tired and have had the longest and hardest week ever so please forgive me.

Chapter 4

"My head's under water but I'm breathing fire, you're crazy and I'm out of my mind 'cause all of me loves all of you, love your curves and all your edge ,all your perfect imperfection, give your all to me, I'll give my all to you." Callie's voice was low and sultry as it cut through Arizona's dream. This had become their new morning routine ever since Arizona mentioned wanting Callie to sing to her more often. Callie trailed soft, loving kisses along Arizona's jawline coming closer to her ear. "You're my end and my beginning, even when I lose I'm winning, 'cause I give you all of me and you give me all of you"

"This really is the best way to wake up." Arizona said in her sleepy voice that makes Callie laugh. "Why do you always laugh at me in the mornings?"

"Your sleepy voice…you sound drunk" Callie giggled as she continued kissing your wife, she just couldn't get enough of this perfect woman.

"Mm, I'm sleep drunk." The blonde refused to open her eyes and lazily cuddled closer to Callie.

"You're also unaware of the silly things you say in this state."

"Hmph" Was her only response before she fell back asleep.

"Ariz-" Callie sighed thinking it was useless trying to wake her so she laid there and watched her sleep. As bronze fingers lightly traced the curves and lines of ivory skin Callie noticed for the first time in months that Arizona looked peaceful in her sleep again. So many nights after the crash Callie watched Arizona sleep or merely rest her eyes in an attempt to sleep but any sound or movement no matter how low or small would cause her to jolt up in bed, which is one of the main reason's Callie began sleeping at Mark's. Not wanting to think about the past anymore Callie kissed her wife once more before heading to check on Sofia.

Callie gave a megawatt smile to the almost two year who was awake and playing when the stuff animals on her bed. "Morning my sunshine."

"Morning rainbow" Sofia giggled, feeling proud of herself for matching her mother's antics the best way a toddler can.

Callie let out an infectious laugh as she picked up daughter. "You are so smart." She smiled as she felt two little arms wrap tightly around her neck and began to sing. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make happy when skies are grey."

"Mommy?"

"Yes Mija?" The serious tone in Sofia's little voice made Callie sits her back down on her bed so that she could kneel in front of her and be able to read her facial expressions.

"Momma is not the same?"

"What do you mean?"

"Her legs." Sofia frowned in confusion looking down at her own legs. "My legs are stuck on but momma's legs come off."

"Oh baby, yes momma is different that way." Callie bit her tongue to keep from saying too much, afraid of where this conversation would go and if she had all the answers Sofia wanted.

"Why?"

Damn those innocent, curious, and beautiful eyes Callie thought as they looked up at her waiting for an answer. "Well Sof, momma hurt her leg really badly and when she went to the hospital the doctors couldn't fix it." Callie paused so that she could swallow the lump in her throat and shake the guilt away. "So they took it off and gave momma a new leg that sometimes comes off."

"They didn't have any Band-Aids at the hos-hoskittle?" Sofia scrunched up her nose trying to pronounce that funny word her mother used.

Callie giggled a bit before replying. "Not one big enough to fix momma's leg."

"Oh." Sofia stayed quiet a moment taking in everything Callie had said.

"Baby girl, why are you asking me this?"

Neither of the two noticed that they were being watched by the topic of their conversation. Arizona stood out of sight but heard everything being said, she was hurt that Sofia noticed that she was different and that her leg came off. The blonde was turning to leave so that she wouldn't hear Sofia's awful answer. She assumed that her daughter wouldn't understand and the child would find it weird or scary, she thought that her daughter would love her less because she was indeed not the same. Arizona moved away from the door but excitement in Sofia's voice caused her volume to rise and the blonde heard the answer. Confused by Sofia's confession she moved back to her spot and listened closer.

Callie was surprised to see those chocolate eyes light up. "I want to take my leg off too but it's stuck."

"It's not stuck Sofia, there's nothing wrong with your leg so why do you want to take it off?"

"I want to be like momma!"

"You are so much like your momma" Callie stated brightly, Sofia defiantly had her looks but that personality was all Arizona.

"I'm not a superhero."

"Wait, what?"

"Momma is a superhero. She can do anything with her new leg."

Happy tears sprung to blue eyes as she giggled to herself, she couldn't believe Sofia thought she was a hero and that she liked her leg. She wanted so much to run in and hug Sofia but she didn't want to ruin this moment so she quickly went back to her room to get ready for the day, feeling like she could conquer the world.

"You're right baby girl and do you know what else?"

"What?"

"She has a super magic smile, when she smiles at you everything gets better."

Sofia smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Oh my gosh!"

"What mommy?"

"You have the super magic smile too, just like momma!"

"Yay!"

Callie was in awe of her daughter right now and wished Arizona was here to know what her daughter thought of her. She knew that Sofia didn't really understand it all but for her to relate Arizona to a superhero and not anything awful was a major thing. Callie struggled to blink back the tears that threatened to fall and stood up. "How about we go make that sleepy hero some breakfast?"

"Okay, can we make franch toast?"

Callie laughed as she looked at her little girl. "It's French toast and yes, that sounds perfect baby."

By the time Arizona was showered and dressed for the day the sweet aroma for the kitchen was all she could concentrate on as she made her way to the kitchen. Her jaw dropped when she saw the breakfast Callie and Sofia had made. There was French toast with powder sugar, cheesy eggs, bacon, smothered potatoes and fresh strawberries. Callie donned an apron that said "Kiss the chef" and Sofia was sitting on the counter putting the strawberries on the plates. "Well, what's all this?"

Callie looked up with a bright smile. "Breakfast for a hero"

"Superhero!" Sofia corrected as she made her way off the counter to run to Arizona.

"A superhero, who?" Arizona asked trying to look innocent.

Sofia wrapped her arms around Arizona's legs and looked up at her with her best super magic smile. "You. You're my superhero."
