Note:

saritaaa I could never go completely shondy because Shonda Rhimes split up my otp. I officially hate her. I'm just trying to get an interesting story going on but remember calzona is the endgame.

That last chapter left you all wanting to through your phones/computers/tablets into the wall, been there but you won't be there for long it's ok. Deep breaths.

It had been 3 months...

3 months since Callie was supposed to have come home. She didn't get off that plane alongside Tim. Tim came alone with puffy red eyes. And Arizona's heart shattered into more prices than anyone could ever even account for. Her life changed.

*flashback*

"Arizona will you stop being jumpy the plane boards in a few minute and they will walk off the plane"

"Teddy I can't it's been 5 months without her touch, embrace and oh my god her kisses. I miss her"

"I know you miss her I mean you have an engagement ring in your pocket"

" I told Tim that when she came back I would propose and I'm sticking to it, it's on been a year and two months but I love her Teddy. It's indescribable."

"Wow you are just fawning" Teddy says with a bit of snark. Arizona just smiles her way because she knows she's been unbearable the last couple of days. She's been super anxious about this. Just nerves because she had a big speech prepared for the proposal and the house was all set up. After waiting 20 minutes they had noticed people were boarding off the plane.

Tim came out walking and Teddy just smiled, while Arizona noticed that Callie wasn't next to him. Arizona started to breathing a little quicker. Tim immediately came up to Arizona and cried, just cried his eyes out.

"Tim please tell me Callie was sitting in the back of plane and is taking longer to get off" Arizona said trying to prevent herself from full out crying in the airport. Tim couldn't even talk he just kept crying. "Oh my god Tim" Arizona said before collapsing on the floor and crying her eyes out. They both collapsed and didn't even take their arms off each other because they were both in immense pain. Teddy just watched as she played every worst case scenario in her head. Arizona and Callie were different.

They were supposed to get the happy ending. The fairytale ending that every soldier dreams of. This was it.

While crying Arizona was finally able to mutter out, "Is she dead?"

*end of flashback*

Arizona had felt numb from that first day. She had felt extremely numb. So numb that she almost slept with another woman while being intoxicated. Joe was lucky enough to have recognized her and pages Teddy right away because he loved Callie. He loved their relationship and didn't want Arizona to ruin that.

Callie wasn't alive or dead. No one knew. The only information Tim gave her was that her and a couple of other on site doctors went to go see a couple of wounded soldiers on the field and never came back. They searched and searched until it was time for them to come home. Many offered to stay and continue the search but the army wouldn't allow it. The whole never leave a man behind oath really didn't mean anything t other commanding officers and everybody hated it. Arizona and Tim were both hurting extremely. They stayed together whenever they could. No one knows whether to say I'm sorry for your loss or I hope she's safe.

These had been the worst 3 months and Arizona was fighting a battle everyday. She was prepared to lose her, but she wasn't prepared to the unknown. Arizona is hurting so badly that she wants to find out if Callie is already on the other side.

"Teddy I was supposed to have her back and I didn't. I promised Arizona she would get the chance to propose and I don't even know if Callie is alive. I don't even know" Tim said while on the verge of breaking down. Tim screamed a lot because he had every right to be angry at the world.

"Tim you did protect her. You protected her with all your heart, might, mind, and strength. There is only so much we can do. We just have to hope and believe that she will come back to us"

" in a coffin?! I can't handle that Teddy" Tim said while finally breaking out in tears and squatting on the floor. They were in the guest room of Arizona and Callie's apartment. They had spent a lot of nights there with Arizona just to make sure she ate and slept. Teddy was taking care of her boyfriend and best friend. It was the best she could do during this very stressful and difficult situation.

Arizona came in after have heard all the yelling and the crying of Tim.

"Tim, you protected her till you couldn't, now I could be mad at you and hate you. Trust I did. But, I know calliope wouldn't want me to hate you because you're her best friend. My promise had not deadline, just that you bring her back to me"

" Arizona I failed as a best friend and brother, I feel responsible" Tim said Findlay getting up from the ground a grabbing a hold of Arizona's shoulders.

"Don't. Don't do this to yourself. You should never feel responsible. This type of stuff you do it comes with the job. The job that you and Callie signed up for. You are not responsible" Arizona said while looking sternly into his eyes with all seriousness. Finally she left go of the tight grip and just pulled him in the for the hug. She took several deep breaths. They stayed like that until Tim's phone rang.

T: Hello

Anonymous: Is this officer Robbins?

T: yes..?

A: we believe we have Dr. Callie Torres in Washington D.C

Tim didn't even say anything all he did was drop his phone. Arizona and Teddy were both confused.

Was Callie okay or was she dead?

Was this her second chance at life?

Note: short chapter but very emotional. Next chapter will be about calls and what happens to her.
