Chapter 61

Arizona's P.O.V:

It's been nearly two weeks since Callie and I made up. Which was great because I've really missed the closeness between us. Tomorrow is our 8 week ultrasound. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited to see our little squirt, as Callie calls him, but I'm also a little nervous, considering what happened the last time.

Sitting up against the head board, I couldn't help but let out a nervous sigh. Callie apparently heard me because she turned her head to look at me.

"Are you okay?" She asks me, raising a brow.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I lied. I couldn't tell her that I was more nervous than excited about tomorrow's appointment. I really don't want to worry her. I can see her out of the corner of my eye, studying me, trying to figure out if I'm lying or not. As I let out another nervous sigh, she just shakes her head. She puts her ipad on her nightstand then, turns her body to where she's facing me.

"Okay, clearly, you are not okay. What's wrong babe?" I grab a hold of her hand and give it a squeeze. I don't make eye contact as she continues to study me. She places a finger under my chin and lifts my head to get me to look at her. "Come on, talk to me beautiful, what's wrong?"

I'm really nervous about tomorrow, Calliope," She furrows her brow in confusion.

"What do you mean?" she asks furrowing her brows in confusion, "Why are you nervous?"

"Come on, Callie, think about it. We had a miscarriage back in February,"

"Okay? and?" She says, waving her hand.

"And..what? What if we go in there tomorrow and we are told that there's no heartbeat? What if we lose this baby too? Because I can't take another loss, Callie. I wouldn't be able hand..."

"Arizona, stop," she says, putting her hand up, cutting me off, "don't go there. Everything is going to be just fine. We will go in there and Dr. Capshaw will tell us that everything is just fine."

"What if it's not? What if.."

"No," she says cutting me off again, "Stop with the 'What if's. Everything will be fine. He will grow inside you, he will be healthy and then come January, he will make his arrival."

"Okay, fine, you're right," I tell her, rolling my eyes. When I look up at her, I could see a slight smirk beginning to form on her lips, "What?"

"Can you repeat that please?" she asks, letting out a chuckle.

"Repeat what?"

"You know. Tell me again that I'm right, because I love being right," she teases. I just smile and roll my eyes.

"I bet you do," I chuckle. I lean over and give her a quick kiss.

"We need to get some sleep so we can see our little squirt tomorrow," she tells me. She turns and leans over to shut off the light as I climb under the covers.

"Good night, Calliope," I say, letting out a yawn.

"Goodnight, Arizona," she replies, kissing my temple, then pulling the covers over both of us.

The early morning sunlight filters in through our bedroom window when my eyes flutter open..god why am I up so early. As my mind clears the morning fog, I feel light touch ghost over my stomach which sends cold chills up my body even though I'm still covered by our comforter. I look towards Callie's side of the bed and find it empty. I let out a disappointing sigh because I really wanted to snuggle up in her arms for a little bit before we got around to getting breakfast in us before heading to our appointment. As I go to move to get out of bed, I suddenly feel heaviness resting on my lower half. Pulling back the covers a little bit, I see a mess of brunette hair covering that face I love seeing every morning. She, some how, managed to position herself between my legs with my shirt pulled up, exposing the bare skin of my stomach. I can hear her whispering something but not able to make out exactly what she is saying. I just lay there and watch her. She whispers something else, then moves her lips across my stomach. When I let out a soft, sleepy chuckle, she looks up at me, blue eyes meeting brown, she gives me her killer smile that I love so much.

"What are you doing?" I ask, throwing back the covers more, revealing both mine and her bodies.

"I was just getting a little baby time," she tells me.

"Oh, is that so?" I ask, letting out another chuckle.

"Yep. I also figured that I'd have a little talk with our son too,"

"Oh," I say, cocking an eyebrow, "what makes you think were having another boy?"

"It's just a feeling," she replies, turning her attention back to my stomach.

"Okay," I say, chuckling again, "SO what kind of talk were you having with our son,"

"Well," she starts, moving herself from between my legs and up to where she's now hovering over me, "I was telling him that we were going to be seeing him today and I may have mentioned to him about how worried you were last night. So I kind of told him that once we saw him, maybe he could give us a sign, or maybe just show us that he is doing well, that he's healthy and growing like he's suppose to. You know, just let us know that we don't have anything to worry about,"

"Calliope, either way, we're going to worry. We're his parents. Parents always worry,"

"I know, babe." She says, placing a kiss on my lips, "everything will be fine, you will see,"

"I hope so," I tell her, letting out a sigh, "We better get up, Noah is probably awake already,"

"He's downstairs with Addie," She tells me.

"You know this how?," giving her a questioning look.

"Because I already have been down there. She's making us breakfast,"

"She doesn't know that were having another baby does she?" She gives me a guilty look, which tells me that she had spilled the beans.

"Calliope..."

"I'm just kidding, babe. I haven't told her anything. I actually haven't said a word to anyone,"

"Okay good," I tell her, giving her a peck on the lips, "I don't want anyone knowing just yet. Not until at least the 12th week, if we even make it by then,"

"Arizona, you need to stop thinking that way," she snaps.

"I can't help it, Calliope. I'm sorry, but I do have a right to feel the way I do," I say, snapping right back. I move myself out from under her. i get up from the bed and made my way over to my dresser.

"What are you doing?" She asks, watching me. After collecting my clothes, I made my way to the bathroom.

"I'm going to take a shower. I'll meet you downstairs," I say, closing the door behind me.

After my shower, I headed down to kitchen. As I entered, Callie was feeding Noah. I found Addie over by the coffee maker, pouring herself a cup of coffee.

"I will take one of those," I suddenly say, causing both Addie and Callie to jump.

"Jesus, Arizona, you scared the shit out of us," Addie says, placing her hands on her chest, "I see you decided to join us,"

"Yeah, I just needed a shower," I tell her, making my over to the cabinet for a coffee cup. I hold my cup out for her to pour me a cup. I look over at Callie, who was giving me an evil glare as I was bringing the cup to my lips.

"Arizona, I don't think coffee is a great idea right now babe. You said it's been messing with your stomach lately," Callie says, glaring at me.

"Oh, my stomach is fine now," I say, giving her a smirk. I know exactly what she was hinting at.

"Oh, I didn't realize coffee has been upsetting your stomach lately," Addie says, reaching for my cup.

"It's fine now. My stomach is fine," I say, pulling out of her reach.

"Arizona.." Callie draws out.

"Callie..." I say in a mocking tone.

"Okay, what's going on?" Addie asks, looking between Callie and I, "Can she have coffee or not?"

"Yes.!" "Not!" Callie and I both answer together. I turn and give Callie an evil glare.

"Okay, you know what, I'm going to go take Noah upstairs and get him ready to go out. You two can fight this out," She says walking over to grab Noah from his high chair, "By the way, I'm taking Noah off your hands today to give Teddy a break. I know you said you had some kind of errands to do, so I'll just keep little man with me," She finishes, then disappears out of the kitchen. After we heard the door shut to Noah's room, I looked at Callie.

"What the hell, Callie."

"You can't have coffee, Arizona," she states firmly, "You're pregnant,"

"I'm not stupid, Callie. I know I'm pregnant, but I am allowed to have at least one cup of coffee a day. I looked it up back when I was pregnant with Noah," I tell her, putting the cup to my lips again. She studies me, then shakes her head.

"Arizona, caffeine is not good for the baby. I may not have been around the first 7 months with Noah, but I'm here and I'm saying no,"

"You know what, fine," I snap, putting the cup down hard down on the countertop, "You win this time. Just wait until next time,"

"Oh, I can't wait," she says with a smug grin on her face, "Are we ready to go?"

"Maybe," I say with a huff, I turn my head to the side to where I'm not looking at her. I could tell out the corner of my eye that she was smiling at my childish ways.

"Are you done pouting yet?" She asks with a chuckle.

"Yes," comes my reply, "I'm going to go up and let Addie know we are leaving,"

Callie's P.O.V:

"Are you okay?" I ask Arizona, as we wait for Dr. Capshaw. As I sit on the stool beside her, I grab her hand in mine and I literally can feel her shaking.

"I'm fine, Callie. I wish you would stop asking me that," she tells me. I could tell by the tone in her voice that she was lying. She's been scared and nervous since last night about our appointment today. It just breaks my heart that she has a lot of doubt with this pregnancy. I mean, I can understand because of what happened at the beginning of the year.

"Babe, everything is going to be just fine. Our little squirt is fine, I promi..."

"Don't you dare finish that sentence, Calliope." She snaps, half sitting up, "You can't sit there and promise me that everything is going to be just fine. You don't know that," She pulls her hand from mine and puts them behind her head, then turns to stare at the ceiling.

A moment later, the door to the patient room opens.

"Ladies! I do apologize for the hold up. How are you both doing this morning," Dr. Capshaw says, coming into the room.

"We're good," I say,

"Ha! Speak for yourself, Calliope," Arizona huffs. Dr. Capshaw was a little taken back by her choice of words. I look at Arizona, then back at our Dr.

"I'm so sorry, Dr. Capshaw. Arizona has been a little on edge lately. She's just a little anxious," I tell her. My wife just lets out a little scoff.

"Is everything okay?" Dr. Capshaw asks. Arizona forcingly sits up and swings her legs to where they are hanging off the table, causing me to jump at her quick actions.

"Yeah, she's just been nervous about this pregnancy," I state hesitantly, looking between my wife and the Dr.

"Honestly, I have been scared shitless," Arizona puts in, "Ever since the miscarriage early in the year, I've had some doubts about this one. I'm scared that once you show us the ultrasound, you're going to find something wrong with the baby, then once again, we will be heartbroken,"

"Arizona," Dr. Capshaw starts calmly, taking her hand in hers, "I do understand your concerns here. and honestly don't blame you for feeling the way you do. Because I have been there myself. So, I understand how you're feeling. So, to ease your mind, how about we just have a look, huh? What do you say?"

Arizona gives her a small smile and gives her a slight nod.

"Okay, then let's get started, shall we?" Dr. Capshaw says with a smile.

As we walked out of the ultrasound room hand in hand, Arizona and I both had smiles plastered on across of our faces. Not only did we hear our baby's heartbeat, but we were also told that he was measuring at .63 inches and weighing .04 oz. which according to Dr. Capshaw, he's right on schedule. She also mentioned that everything is looking great and was looking perfectly healthy. After scheduling our new appointment, we made our way out to the car so we could go grab some lunch that way I could feed my babies. Looking over at Arizona, I could tell by the smile she was wearing back in the office still hadn't left her face. Which made my heart happy. Last night and then again this morning, she had been really worried that something was wrong with our little Squirt, but after hearing great news today, she was definitely in a better mood

"See, I told you," I say to Arizona, looking over at her, then back on the road, "everything is just fine,"

"I know Calliope," Arizona says, flashing me her full dimpled smile, "You were right,"

"I'm sorry, what was that?" I ask jokingly, taking one hand off the wheel and putting it to my ear, "I could've sworn I was hearing things," She just let's out a laugh.

"No, you weren't hearing things. I just said you were right, and you are," She says, "I'm sorry I doubted you," I looked at her again and smiled. I could tell she was finally feeling better about this whole thing. Her mood from this morning has definitely disappeared and was replaced with nothing but happiness.

"You're forgiven," I say, giving her a wink, "So are my babies hungry?" looking in her direction again, then back to the road.

"We are very hungry, Mama," She says, placing her hand on her stomach before giving it a rub.

"You got it," I say as I pull into the parking lot of our favorite restaurant.

Okay, I know it's a boring chapter and I apologize! I just wanted to give everyone an update on everything. So here you are :) I'm sorry it took so long. I just had a lot going on with work, school and not too mention, being on vacation. I will being doing time jumps here and there. I don't want to drag out the pregnancy and not to mention, Arizona's going back to school. Which will be coming up.
