Disclaimer: I don't own Grey's Anatomy. I kind of only half own Tara, who is based on the character of the same name from Buffy: The Vampire Slayer.
Back at the hospital, Callie and Arizona had finished their surgery, and Arizona had returned to her vigil by the phone, waiting for Tara's Father to call. Callie went to grab some coffee, and when she returned, she found her girlfriend glaring at the phone as though it were the man himself. And Callie had to say that she was beginning to share Arizona's disdain for him. Still, glaring at a phone was not going to help them turn their colleagues back into adults.
"Okay, I think we've pretty much established that this guy isn't going to call" said Callie, handing Arizona her cup of coffee, "So how about we just go to his house after our shifts and ask him for the book."
"I guess" Arizona sighed. "But he'll probably just think we want the book for Tara, and not give it to us."
"From what you've told me about him, I don't doubt that" said Callie. "But what else can we do?"
"Run for your life!" Cristina, who was getting very into the army-man game, yelled as she and Owen fled from Mark and Alex. She paused, looking around frantically, when they turned the corner. "Okay, I think we lost them. What do we do now?"
"I don't know" Owen shrugged. "You wanted to be the boss."
"Yeah, but I never played this game before" Cristina pointed out. "So what do we do?"
"Um.." Owen thought for a moment, but unfortunately, Alex and Mark now caught up to them, raising their imaginary guns and making shooting noises. "Noooooooooo!" cried Mini Owen, leaping in front of Cristina to protect her from the imaginary bullets. He fell to the ground, clutching his leg which had suffered an imaginary injury. "Ow! I've been hit!" Cristina pulled him to his feet and supporting him as they once again fled, Owen pretending to limp. Eventually, they hid inside a closet.
"What you do that for, stupid?" Cristina snapped. "We should have just run!"
"I know" Owen sighed. "But.. for some reason I just didn't want anything bad to happen to you, even if it was just a game."
"Oh." For a while, the children fell silent. "You know uh.. What's your name again?"
"It's Owen" Owen frowned, annoyed.
"Yeah, Owen. Um, your actually kinda cool.. You know, for a boy."
"Thanks" Owen grinned. "You're kinda cool too.. for a girl." They fell silent again, although this time, the silence was a comfortable one.
"How long do we have to stay in here?" Cristina asked eventually.
"I don't know" Owen shrugged. "I guess as long as it akes for them to get bored and stop looking."
"Okay.. How long will that be?"
Not too much later, Callie, Arizona, and Bailey arrived home from the hospital to find their babysitters apparently searching frantically for something, while the majority of the children sat watching T.V.
"Hey, guys" said Callie, raising an eyebrow. "What's up?"
"Okay" said Addison, turning to her friend with a an entirely too cheerful, obviously fake smile on her face. "This is gonna sound bad, but don't freak out.."
"We lost the rednut and the Asian one" said Charlotte.
"Charlotte!" yelled Addison and Cooper in unison, annoyed.
"You lost them?" Bailey yelled, directing her anger towards Addison and Cooper in particular. "How the hell could people in such child-oriented professions lose two children?"
"Uh, I'm not in a child-oriented profession" Charlotte interrupted. "I'm a Sexologist."
"What's that?" asked Mini-Mark, interested.
"You're too young to know, so forget about it" Bailey frowned, before turning back to the adults. "Okay, here's how this is gonna work. The rest of you will search this house from top to bottom until you find Yang and Hunt. I will watch the children seeing as apparently I'm the only one who knows how to not lose them!"
Addison, Cooper, and Charlotte continued the search downstairs. Callie and Arizona took to searching upstairs, but weren't having much luck.
"Owen?" called Arizona, looking around Alex and Izzie's room.
"Cristina?" called Callie, searching Meredith and Derek's room.
"Kids, where are you?" cried Arizona, getting desperate.
"Yeah, this isn't funny!" Callie yelled.
"Oh my god, oh my god" Arizona panicked, pacing back and forth across the hallway.
"Arizona.." Callie began, but her girlfriend was too stressed to listen.
"Where could they be?"
"Arizona.." Callie tried again.
"What are we gonna do if we can't find them?"
"Arizona.."
We can't call the police, we'd never be able to explain.."
"Arizona!" Callie yelled, spinning the blonde around to face her. "Calm. The hell. Down."
"Okay" said Arizona, taking a deep breath. "Okay.."
"We will find them" Callie continued. "They're probably in some really obvious place that no one's looked yet, like.."
"That closet behind you with the door slightly ajar?" asked Arizona, pointing to said closet which she had spotted over her girlfriend's shoulder.
"Yes Arizona, exactly like that closet" said Callie. She turned and pulled the closet open, and what they found inside made both women melt. Owen and Cristina had fallen asleep, leaning against each other's shoulders.
"Aww, isn't that cute?" said Arizona.
"Yeah" agreed Callie, grinning.
