A/N: Thanks for reviewing everybody! So here is a big chapter that hopefully settles some things…anyways away with Chapter Seven!
Arizona was walking out of the hospital with the rest of her colleagues who were talking about their plans for the evening while Arizona kept quiet she was upset with Amelia and also very confused by statements Callie and even Lauren had made, was it really true did Amelia have feelings for her? As she continued to walk towards her car ahead of everyone finally pulling away slightly from them she stopped at the sight of Amelia leaning on her car, hands in her leather jacket looking rather upset but in a near tears type of way. The two locked eyes silently communicating, Meredith, Callie, Maggie and Alex stopped upon realizing that something was about to happen. Taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly Amelia pushed off of the car and turned to fully face Arizona, deciding it was now or never to start talking.
"So, I suck!" Amelia exclaimed causing Arizona to blink rapidly at the first words out of the other woman's mouth. "And I mean that sincerely, I am a bitch an ungrateful one at that. I get angry very easily, I am an addict who can never seem to find something that makes that desire for a drink or a pill to go away. I can also be very childish, and because of all of that I suck!"
Everyone remained silent as the sight of Amelia finally just opening up shocked everyone, because Amelia never fully opened up.
"I want to save that little boy, and I know I can the only reason I was refusing because I didn't want to work with Lauren and the reason I didn't want to work with her is because I was jealous! I thought…it doesn't really matter what I thought I suppose but I will join in on the surgery and help him because he does deserve a chance to live and because I don't want you to hate me, and I don't like being this person that sucks anymore! I hadn't been in a long time and that was thanks to you but then…I let it get the best of me." Taking a deep breath trying to fight back tears Amelia looked down and kicked at the ground before looking back up but this time with light tears breaking from her eyes.
"What I am trying to say is I am sorry, I am sorry for sucking and everything that comes with it." More silence as the group looked between the two women waiting to see what would happen next.
"That's it, nothing else to say?" Arizona asked as she waited for there to be more.
"Yeah, that's it."
"Oh."
"Oh?"
"I just hoped…thought there would be more but there isn't so that's okay were good." The response sounded pained as Arizona nodded and biting her lip trying to fight her own tears as she started walking towards her car.
"Something tells me were not good though?" Amelia asked as she turned so she could actually now look at Arizona who was almost to her car.
"It's nothing." The response was sharp causing Amelia to scoff.
"What the hell! I just apologized and poured every damn problem I have out to you and you're still obviously angry with me! Don't accept an apology if you're just going to toss it out the door!" The level of anger Amelia had just reached was radiating off of her as everyone still remained locked where they stood, but were joined by Lauren who looked on with curiosity.
"What's going on?" Lauren whispered.
"Amelia apologized and rather emotionally like poured everything out but Arizona is still mad at her so now it has turned into a yelling match." Meredith whispered to the woman who nodded realizing her talk with Amelia helped but also didn't help the whole admit your love for her stuff went out the door.
"I just want you to tell me the truth!" Arizona's voice carried over the group causing looks of shock even on Callie who never heard Arizona yell that loudly.
"I just gave you the truth! What more do you want from me?" Amelia fired back as they stood just inches away from each other obviously fuming with anger and pent up emotions.
"I want everything!" A shocked expression painted itself over Amelia's face as she looked at Arizona was now in tears.
"What?"
"I want everything, I want you I want your anger and your suckyness which isn't even a word!" Turning around as she threw her hands up and started to walk away Amelia stood still with tears running down her face.
"I want everything too." Turning towards Amelia everyone saw the look of surprise on Arizona's face.
"What?"
"I want everything too, I want you I want your anger and your suckyness which isn't even a word too. I've had everyone hit me upside the head telling me you felt the same way but I find…well found it hard to believe why would you be interested in me?"
"Why wouldn't I be?" The whispered words carried loudly to listening ears that were around them as silence settled.
"So…" Before Amelia could even think to go further with her sentence Arizona was kissing her and when looking back on it Amelia will tell you it was the greatest and most electrifying kiss she had ever had, it was a kiss that put all past ones to shame. Wrapping their arms around the other they fell into the kiss and into each other allowing the world around them to melt away, even when thunder clapped and rain started pouring down they didn't break away from the other only until the need for air caused them to pull away.
"Wow." They both responded in unison as they felt a small spark catch their lips as they pulled away.
"It's about damn time!" Meredith yelled causing everyone to laugh including Arizona and Amelia who pulled away from each laughing but also hating the lack of contact. "Come on, we're all going to Joe's to celebrate these two finally get their heads out of their asses. First round is on me!"
As everyone started climbing into the SUV, Callie looked over at the two and smiled a genuine smile which was returned by the two women. Lauren walked up to them all smiles, and chuckled at the two.
"Looks like you both finally listened to me!"
"Sorry, for being an ass." Amelia replied.
"It's all good, honestly I would have acted the same way if roles were reversed so don't worry about it just be in tomorrow so we can discuss the surgery!"
"Are you going to go to Joe's?" Arizona asked.
"I would but I need to call Jenn she had a big surgery today that was risky so if it didn't go well…"
"You want to be there, thank you by the way." Arizona replied.
"For what?"
"I am going to let you two talk, I will just meet you in the car." Amelia replied, taking Arizona's keys and walking away.
"For everything, I know it sounds weird but even for all those years ago. It broke my marriage but it helped me put the pieces in place and helped me on the path of getting better completely and also for being a friend you aren't that bad it." Chuckling Lauren nodded and smiled.
"I understand, and in a weird way you're welcome. So, from where I am standing this friend thing is going to work out!"
"It appears so!"
"Jenn, can't wait to meet you!"
"Really?"
"Yeah, I've explained everything and she agreed with me you and Amelia had to just kiss already." Both laughed at the comment, Arizona smiled at the other woman before wrapping her arms around her in a hug.
"Thank you and I can't wait to meet Jenn."
"You're welcome, now go celebrate and have your way with your girlfriend!"
"Hey!" Lauren was already walking away, chuckling Arizona smiled as she thought about what Lauren had said; her girlfriend.
At Joe's Arizona and Amelia were holding hands under the table and giving each other glances both smiling as it started to become more and more real that they had finally told each other how they felt. As everyone talked Arizona and Amelia were having their own talk.
"So, how do you want to take this?"
"Well, we already live together so the whole lesbian U-Haul thing is true…" Slapping Amelia on the arm gently Arizona laughed and rolled her eyes. "We should probably take this slow, with us living together we could skip steps and I don't want this to go to fast to where it breaks us."
"I agree."
"But…"
"But…"
"I really…really want you."
"We could just tonight you know get it out of our systems, that way I mean we wouldn't be thinking about it."
"I still think that would be going too fast."
"True, okay how about making out with under the shirt touching." Amelia chuckled at Arizona's counter propose.
"How about making out with no under the shirt touching."
"That doesn't sound as fun."
"You haven't really made out with me, so how do you know it wouldn't be?"
"True, okay." Smiling at each other they leaned in and kissed for the second time again not paying attention to anyone or anything around them.
