Prompt: Sorry if you've done this before. But my prompt is - how Callie found out about Mark's "nothing" comment, and how she dealt with Mark and comforted Arizona.

I haven't done this, but I've always wanted to. Thanks for reminding me. I've decided to link it with 8x05 and Arizona's little 'I'm her Momma' panic. I don't see any other reason for them to bring it up, so I hope this scenario is ok.

if you have an idea for a scene or prompt, leave it in a review :)

Their drive home from Teddy's party was mostly silent. Arizona gazed quietly out of the window, somewhat embarrassed about her outburst. Callie drove slowly, hoping her wife would open up to her.
"Do you want to talk about it?" She finally asked, glancing from the road.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make a scene in front of everyone." The blonde said quietly, her gaze still fixed on the scenery slowly passing them by.

Callie frowned, one hand slipping from the wheel and onto her wife's lap. No one had noticed their talk at the party.

"You don't have to apologize. I just want to know where it came from..." Callie sighed, gently squeezing her wife's leg.
"…How long you've been feeling like this…"

Arizona sighed softly, finally meeting her wife's gaze.
"Zola."

Callie frowned. She'd expected the source to be one of the hospital staff. People at SGMW liked to gossip.
"Huh?"

"Zola was brought in today, her shunt had malfunctioned and her foster parents called Janet. We weren't supposed to tell Meredith and Derek but Karev did. He said he couldn't understand why I was pissed at him for breaking protocol."
"Of course you should have been pissed, it's probably put the adoption in jeopardy."

Arizona nodded.
"Maybe. But he said I should have understood their situation better than anyone. He asked what I'd do if it was Sofia and we weren't at our hospital. If you or Mark weren't there…" Her voice lowered to a whisper.
"I'm nothing."

Callie was more than thankful that she had pulled into the driveway of their apartment complex or she may have crashed the car right there and then.
"What!?"

Arizona took a breath.
"I know I'm not. I know that. But when people like Karev and Mark say things-"

"Woah, what the hell did Mark say?"

The blonde cursed inwardly. She hadn't meant to mention Mark; his words had been said in fear and anger and now it was all water under the bridge. She'd momentarily forgotten that her wife didn't know.
"Callie just forget I said anything. It was so long ago and he didn't even mean it."

"No. Tell me." The brunette's face left no room for argument.

Arizona began to tell her wife about the horrible, awful words that her and Mark had exchanged while she was in the ICU. Callie's eyes suddenly clouded with tears as she opened her car door. Arizona let herself out too, quickly following her wife.
"Callie, wait. Do not confront him about this."

Callie handed the keys of their apartment to her wife.
"Go home. I'll be there soon."

Mark sat on the couch, thumbing through a bunch of papers as he listened to the quiet hum of the baby monitor. Sofia was fast asleep in her room, making adorable little suckling sounds in her sleep.

The peaceful calm was shattered minutes later as someone thumped loudly on the door of his apartment. He got up quickly, hoping the noise wouldn't wake Sofia. He frowned when he saw his best friend.
"Are you trying to wake her up, Cal?"

She pushed him into the apartment and slammed the door before pushing at him again.
"How could you Mark? How could you? She's my wife! She's my everything and she is everything to Sofia." Angry tears spilled down Callie's cheeks as her fists continued their assault on his torso.

He managed to grab her hands before she did any real damage to them.
"What the hell are you talking about?"

Callie yanked her hands from Mark's.
"You called her nothing, Mark. She's her mother and you called her nothing."

Mark sighed, scrubbing his hand over his face.
"God, Cal. I'm…she told you?"

"She didn't mean to, but that's not the point, Mark. You-"
Mark nodded, his hands resting on Callie's shoulders, silently pleading she wouldn't pull away again.
"Cal I know. I regretted the words the minute they came out of my mouth and I told her I was sorry. That's not what I think. I know she's as much Sofia's parent as we are…come here." Mark tugged on her hand, pulling her towards the table and handing her the papers he'd been reading before she arrived.
"I heard about Derek and Meredith today, and how crappy it was for them. My first thought was Robbins, and how crappy it would be if anything happened to Sofia and she found herself in the same position. I called my lawyer. He's going to draw up some papers basically granting her the same rights that we have."

Fresh tears gathered in Callie's eyes as she looked over the papers before handing them back to Mark.
"If I weren't happily married, I'd kiss you. Thank you, Mark."

Mark smiled, kissing the top of Callie's head and brushing a thumb across her cheek as a tear fell.

"Let's go tell your girl."
