"Are you ready to go?" Callie ask sweetly as she enters the office.
"Yes," Arizona says standing up to leave.
"Arizona?" Callie says crossing her arms and shaking her head, "You were supposed to take that off an hour ago, don't over do it today, you have surgery tomorrow."
"But I've been sitting and not walking, so it will be fine." Arizona explains.
"No, come on I'm driving. Leave it here so you won't be tempted to over do it. Besides, I have a surprise for you." Callie says flashing a big smile.
"Hmm, what kind of surprise? Can I eat it or drink it?" Arizona asks as Callie steps in the office and closes the door, while the blonde takes off her pants to remove the prosthetic.
"No, you can't. But you can wear it." Callie says playfully.
"Wait, did you fix my other leg?" Arizona asks pulling her pants back up.
"I did and I think you should wear it tomorrow. I have it in the car, so you can't try it on until we get home." Callie suggests.
"Yay!" The blonde says as she pulls herself up on the crutches. "Let's go get Sofia and head home."
"It could be your home again, you know." Callie says as the blonde approaches her. Reaching out, she caresses Arizona's face and tucks a stray curl back behind her ear.
"Calliope," Arizona says biting her lip nervously. "Six months. We need to give this some time and not rush into it." She reminds the Latina.
"I know and you're right. But it has been really nice having you around this week." Callie admits.
"Its been nice being around this week and yes, I could get used to this real easy, but let's make sure that we're good before we get comfortable." Arizona says leaning forward and kissing the brunette softly.
"Okay, okay..." Callie replies, holding up her hands, then she steps forward and pulls the blonde in tight and kisses her deeply, then she releases her and opens the door and walks out into the hall.
"Cal, wait not fair..." Arizona says shaking her head to clear it after the kiss. Then she steps back to the desk to grab her bag and sling it over her shoulders so she can get out the door and lock it.
"Hey," Callie says standing at the door to the guest room.
"Hey, I thought you went to bed." Arizona says softly looking up from her medical journal.
"I did, but I can't sleep and I saw your light on..." Callie says biting her lip.
Patting the bed beside her, Arizona invites her to sit down.
"Why can't you sleep?" The blonde asks her.
"I don't want to tell you." Callie says hiding her face in her hands.
"Calliope, you can tell me anything." Arizona says softly.
"It's silly, I just keep thinking that you're going to go back to the house and then move in with Amelia, so this could be my last time to just sleep with you beside me. Could we maybe just sleep here together?" Callie says looking up at her with soft brown eyes.
"I hope it's not the last time that I sleep here, unless by that you mean the guest room." Arizona teases as she puts the journal down and reaches over to pick up her phone.
"What are you doing?" Callie asks watching the blonde on her phone.
"I'm setting the alarm, you don't want to oversleep and have Sofia wander in here and see us together in the bed do you?" Arizona asks her.
"It wouldn't be the worst thing?" Callie replies, reaching over and pulling the bedding down, so she can get under the covers.
"Do I need to set ground rules for this sleepover?" Arizona teases as Callie cuddles up to her.
"I'm little spoon first," the brunette says looking over her shoulder as Arizona turns off the light.
"Okay, you can be little spoon." The blonde says wrapping herself around the brunette and nuzzling into her hair. "Thank you."
"You're welcome, but why are you thanking me." Callie asks.
"Thank you for helping me, taking care of me, fixing my leg, laying here with me. Letting me spoon you." Arizona says whispering into her hair.
"Arizona, there's no one that I want to do all of those things for but you. I love you." Callie says turning slightly to face the blonde.
"I love you too Calliope," the blonde says kissing her.
Pulling the blonde on top of her, Callie deepens the kiss and slips her hand up under her camisole.
"Call, we have an early day tomorrow." Arizona reminds her, sighing deeply.
Disappointed, Callie closes her eyes and pulls her hands back. "Its a good thing that I'm the little spoon then," she says rolling back over.
Waking up the next morning, Callie opens her eyes and takes a moment to realize that she's in the guest room with Arizona and the sound she hears is coming from the blonde's phone.
Carefully she reaches over and picks up the phone and slides it to dismiss the alarm. Then she realizes the phone has a security code on it, she punches in Sofia's birthday, but that's not it. She then enters Arizona's birthday, it still doesn't unlock. "Arizona," she says softly, "I need to get up."
"Okay, just five more minutes," the blonde says still asleep and wrapped around the brunette.
Smiling at her, Callie takes a moment to savor the feel of her in her arms.
"Calliope?" Arizona says suddenly realizing that they are together in bed.
Opening her eyes, the blonde smiles opens her eyes. "I was having the best dream, but it's not a dream, you're here."
"I am." Callie says softly, kissing her hair, "but I need to get up before Sofia wakes up."
Yawning, Arizona covers her mouth with her hand and then rests her hand on Callie's chest. "Good morning," she says flashing a smile with twinkly blue eyes.
"Good morning, did you sleep well?" Callie asks lost for a moment in those blue eyes.
"Awesome, how about you?" She asks.
"Best night's sleep in a while," Callie replies. Then looking down at the blonde in her arms, she adds, "Thank you."
"You're welcome Calliope." Arizona says sitting up and stretching.
"How are you feeling?" Callie asks sitting up and swinging her legs off the bed.
"Good. Just a bit sore," Arizona says then looks at Callie as they both hear Sofia running down the hall to Callie's room.
Callie jumps up and grabs the prosthetic leg and runs out of the room, "Sofia? Sofia, Mami's in here with Momma."
"Mami! Good morning!" Sofia says running back to her, as Callie bends down to kiss her good morning.
"Good morning honey," she says taking her hand. "I was just helping Momma with her leg, do you want to help?"
Nodding, the little girl reaches out and touches the leg.
"Good morning Momma!" Sofia says running over to the bed to give her a kiss.
"Good morning monkey!" Arizona says as Sofia climbs up on the bed.
"Okay, are you ready?" Callie asks as she kneels down to watch Arizona put the leg on and make sure that it's a good fit.
Scooting to the edge of the bed, Arizona takes the leg and slips it on. "It feels good, like normal." She says.
"Okay, that's good." Callie says standing up and moving in front of the blonde so she can help her stand and take a few steps on it.
"It feels different, lighter. What did you do?" Arizona asks.
"I think its just the difference between the two prosthetics." Callie replies, "But I did tweak it a bit."
Taking a few steps, Arizona narrows her eyes at the brunette. "You did more than tweak it, the foot seems springy."
"Okay, so I did go in and rework the ankle joint. I put in a compression piece to make it cushioned, it will give a little now when you move, which should help it be more responsive. It's no Ossur prosthetic, though." Callie says explaining and laughing watching Sofia dancing around the blonde as she moves around the room.
"Hey breakfast time, Sofia." Arizona says walking over to the door.
"You're going to take it off while you're in the skills lab with Pierce, right?" Callie reminds the blonde.
"Calliope." Arizona says as they sit in the car in the parking lot. "Stop. I've got this. I appreciate everything that you do for me, but stop hovering." The blonde says reaching out and squeezing the brunette's leg.
"I'm sorry. I just really want today to go well for you." Callie says placing her hand over the blonde's.
"Thank you, now are I've got to go up and meet with Carla and Jake and introduce Maggie to them." Arizona replies.
"Okay, I'll get little miss here to daycare." Callie says getting out of the car. "Go on in. I've got her."
Arizona leans into the back seat and tells Sofia goodbye, then she climbs out of the car.
