Arizona was able to go home from the hospital a couple of days later, very happy to be getting out of the hospital room and back home with her wife and twins. And also to be back in her comfortable bed. She didn't realise she could miss a bed so much until after a stay in the hospital. "How are you feeling Arizona?" Maria asked, as she wheelchaired her wife out to the car.
"I'm good Ri." Arizona answered, feeling better than she had done for a few days now.
"I'm glad sweetheart." Maria replied. "I bought your favourite cake for you yesterday." Maria teased.
"See that is why I love you so much." Arizona answered. And gingerly got herself out of the wheelchair once they got to the car, not wanting to bother Maria.
"Arizona. I could have helped you." Maria said, once she'd put the twins in the car, noticing she was in pain. -
"It would have still hurt." Arizona grumbled.
"Oh darling. When can you have more pain meds?"
"Not long, only about an hour." She replied, being overly aware of when she was able to take pain meds.
"Good. I don't like it when you're hurting."
"I know you don't Ri." Arizona answered. "I'm really hurting all of a sudden though." She replied and put her hand on her abdomen.
"Arizona." Maria answered. Looking at her seeming very concerned.
"It's okay Ria. I'm still okay to go home." She answered, being able to tell what her wife was thinking.
"Okay. Good. Do you want to lay on the sofa or in bed when we get back?"
"Sofa please. So I can be downstairs with you."
"Okay darling." Maria looked at her wife and smiled weakly. "I'm worried about you."
"Don't be Maria. I'll tell you if you need to worry." She said with honesty in her voice.
"Okay. You better. It's hard not to worry when my wife's in pain."
"I know Maria." Arizona said simply. "You're just too caring for your own good." She paused for a moment. "Is your dad going to come over to see the twins soon?" She asked, knowing that he wanted to.
"Yeah, He wants to come next week, but only if you're up to it?"
"I'm up to it Ri." Arizona answered honestly.
"Good. I'll tell him he can come then." Maria replied happily, having missed her dad. "How's your dad doing?" She asked, having overheard a phone conversation with Arizona's mum the week before.
"Not great Ri. I'm really worried I'll lose him."
"Arizona." Maria answered seriously. "I wish there was something I could say that would make you feel better." She continued. "How about when your healed enough we make a trip to see them?"
"Can we?" Arizona asked. "That doesn't bother you?"
"No darling. It doesn't bother me atall."
"Thankyou." Arizona answered. "I would have gone on my own but it'll be nice to have you and the girls."
"Good." Maria answered as they arrived home. "Let me get the twins in then I'll help you." She told her wife, not wanting her to hurt herself more.
"Okay." Arizona agreed, and waited for Maria to come back to help her in. "Would you like me to cook for you tonight?" Maria asked, while she was helping Arizona in, before making sure she was comfortable on the sofa.
"Please Ri. Can you do a pasta bake? She asked, having not had one in a while.
"Sure I can Darling." Maria answered, leaning down to kiss her wife on the cheek before going to make dinner for the both of them.
After dinner Maria and Arizona both relaxed on the Sofa, with Maria keeping an eye on and comforting Arizona when she could tell that she hurt.
