Five minutes after Meredith left her office, Arizona got herself together and went looking for Lauren, seeing the other doctor talking with Murphy in front of the elevator.
"Dr. Boswell!" – Arizona shouted and Lauren pretended not to hear the blonde.
"Lauren. Lauren! I need to talk to you. Now!" – Arizona said pulling Lauren's arm and didn't worry about people watching and hearing them, since she wasn't calm or kept her voice down for any minute.
"Listen up, 'cause I'm going to say this only once: if you talk to me, or about me, or even think about my face for anything other than a medical consult, ever again, I swear to God you're not only gonna get fired but I will also make sure you never work in any hospital of this country again. Ever! Don't you ever talk to me again, do you understand?" – Arizona was screaming furiously and when she was done; she let go Lauren's arm and walked away.
Lauren tried to call her out and started to follow her, but Karev stopped right in front of her, since he saw the scene before.
"Dude, let her go." - Alex said and Lauren insisted on walking in her direction, so he had to block her way. – "Dr. Boswell, you heard her. Walk away. Now!"
Amelia heard Arizona's altered voice from inside a patient's room and stepped out to see what was going on. After Arizona went away, she sighed knowing that this explosion must have something to do with Meredith, since she had a conversation with her sister the day before.
Alex ran after Arizona in her office, knowing that his mentor was probably crashed over something since it wasn't like her to burst out like that.
"Alex, please, leave me alone." – Arizona asked, crying.
"What happened over there?" – Alex asked her, closing the door behind him.
"Alex, leave me alone! Get out!" – Arizona started to scream at him, with rage.
"No! I won't leave you alone. You've never left me alone. I won't leave until you're telling me what's going on and until I'm sure you will be fine. So, take your time." - Alex said, firmly.
He wrapped his arms around Arizona and the blonde burst out in tears, sobbing heavily in his shoulder.
"We're over. Meredith and I. We're over" – Arizona explained, barely managing to complete the sentence.
"You'll figure it out. You'll always do." – Alex answered, holding her tight, even though he had no idea why they have broken up.
Meredith was hiding at the parking lot, inside of her car. Some tears were running down her cheeks, but she didn't want to give in, otherwise she probably wouldn't be able to stop. She kept thinking about the arguing, Arizona's tears, and her voice, telling they were over. How could she say that? How was she supposed to live now that she have found what is love capable of, even after all of the tragedies she went through. The kids.
Damn it. She thought. Now she couldn't hold her tears anymore. The kids would miss her so much. How she should explain it to them? How do you explain it when you don't understand it yourself?
All that she could think of now was the bouquet. Those damn flowers that made her lose her mind and doubt Arizona's integrity. But even in that awful situation she never thought about ending their relationship. She didn't want to break up. That was something that Meredith couldn't forget nor forgive. Arizona gave up on them.
Amelia was looking for Meredith all over the hospital without success. She knew things were a little rough on the couple, with all the Callie and Lauren drama, but in the end, she was absolutely sure that her sister loved Arizona very much, and that Arizona loved Meredith the same way. Amelia was the queen of running away and hiding her feelings for as long as possible, and that never got her good outcomes. Meredith also had a tendency of hiding and diving into the darkness world of sadness, so she knew she needed to help her before it was too late.
She decided to check if Meredith's car was still at the parking lot and that was how she found her sister.
That scene broke Amelia's heart. Her sister looked devastated inside of her car, crying alone. Slowly she walked towards the car and opened the door on the passenger side.
"I was looking for you all over the hospital. What can I do for you?" – Amelia asked, while held Meredith's hand.
Meredith couldn't answer, she just accepted her sister's hug and continued to sob. Her happiness, that happened even though it seemed impossible a while ago, was vanishing away and now it looked like it was for real.
"Do you want to talk about it? Do you need me to drive you home?" – Amelia insisted, trying to comfort her broken-hearted sister.
"She broke up with me, we broke up. I screwed up again. Why do I keep doing this?" – Meredith asked Amelia.
"What happened? Arizona was screaming at Dr. Boswell on peds ward, I think I've never seen her so angry in my life!" – Amelia commented.
"What did she say to her?" – Meredith lifted up her head from Amelia's shoulder.
"I couldn't hear everything, I was in a patient's room and suddenly heard all the screaming, but from what I could understand, she was demanding that Lauren never speak to her again" – Amelia explained. – "Lauren did something to you?"
"She sent flowers. To Arizona. With a small note that only said 'I Love You'. Arizona thought it was from me and when I saw it, I lost my mind." – Meredith confessed.
"I understand she was completely out of line, but why did you lose your mind over Arizona? Don't you think it was an honest mistake?" – Amelia asked.
"I don't know, I mean, how confident a person must be to send someone flowers with an 'I love you' note when you have absolutely no contact with the person? I figured Arizona was allowing this to happen somehow." – Meredith said, with watered eyes, now reflecting that she actually did screw things up.
"Mer, I can see where your mind went for you to picture this in your head, but Lauren is crazy enough to do that only to tease Arizona. She's that crazy. I just don't understand why did you guys broke up?" – Amelia asked, sadly.
"I've said some pretty bad stuff to her. I said she didn't have a competition because Derek was already dead." – Meredith confessed, embarrassed.
"Oh, Mer… I bet she was pretty upset, then." – Amelia stated, uncertain of what she should say.
"She was, of course. Then I accused her of running away. I never intended for us to break up, I was mad, like really mad, but I didn't want to end it." – Meredith started to cry again.
"I know honey, I know." - Amelia tried to comfort her.
"She said she couldn't do this anymore. She asked me to leave. Why did she ask me to leave, Amelia?" – Meredith burst out in tears again.
