Chapter 10
Meredith was waiting outside of Arizona's office with two cups of coffee when the blonde came running in. "Ugh, I overslept." "Sure you did" said Meredith. "How was your date?" Smirking at the blonde. "Meredith, we only had dinner, and conversation. That was it. I'm not ready to jump into that kind of relationship right now. I like her, she's very smart and pretty and makes me feel good about myself. I just want to go slow. I was up all night trying to sort my feelings and I am so confused. I love Callie, she's the only person I have ever loved. But she has her Perfect Pretty Penny. I do have a little bit of a crush on Eliza, I can see being with her. But Meredith, I suck at relationships, I'm scared . What should I do? What would you do?"
Meredith tried to reassure her "Well, I think that you owe it to yourself to try to be happy. Relationships are hard. I know that your divorce really messed you up. It did Callie as well and I think the custody trial just made it harder. I do think you need to talk to Callie, I mean you have a daughter together and I know she has moved on, but I think you need to tell her your feelings before you can move on." She didn't want to tell Arizona that the past couple of times she talked to Callie she could tell that she wasn't happy. She hoped that they both came to their senses, she truly just wanted her friends to be happy and she had a feeling that neither would be unless they were together.
Meredith decided to change the subject "So should we invite Eliza to Thanksgiving? It's two weeks away and Maggie is freaking out trying to figure out how much food she needs to prepare." Arizona felt conflicted "Mer, it's your house, your party. You invite who you want. Don't do anything on my account." She paused and said " I'm really worried about Sofia, she doesn't seem herself when I talk to her, has Callie said anything to you?" Meredith shook her head and said "Talk to Callie" as she walked away.
Meredith was right, there was so much she needed to discuss with Callie.
She sent a text- Callie, I would really like to talk to you when you get a chance. Can you please call me so we can have a conversation?- thanks Arizona
Now she would just wait on a response and she could start to piece her life together again. Her thoughts were interrupted by her pager going off. Well, its time to start this day she thought as she left to go to the pit.
