Arizona POV

Walking into Seattle Grace felt surreal. It felt like I never left, but it also felt different. I walk to the Chief office to grab my new badge. "Hey chief. Thank you for rehiring me at my original position. I appreciate it."

"Of course Arizona! You know you're needed here."

"So how does it feel being Chief? How long have you been Chief?"

"It has its days, but most days it's rewarding. Like today. And I got it maybe a year and a half ago right after I got married."

"No shit, you and Yang?"

"Yes and we are expecting our first baby, next month."

"Wow that's amazing. Congratulations on your wedding and your baby. I'm happy for you Owen."

"Thanks Arizona. I appreciate it."

"Well I should be heading to my floor, I can't wait to see the mess I'm left with."

"I'm sure you will do just fine. After all you had to deal with much harder circumstances in Africa."

I'm not gonna lie, every time I take a turn I'm scared I'm gonna run into Callie. I finally make it to my Peds wing. I go to my office and read all the charts of my patients, then I hear a knock on my door.

"Come in."

"I heard you were coming back, so glad to see you superstar." He says taking the seat in front of me.

"Oh shut it Karev. I'm surprised my Peds ward didn't burn down to the ground."

"Hey, I'm the one who extinguished it. Starks was a nut case."

"Yeah, that's what I've been hearing. Dark blue looks good on you. Anyways you want to catch me up on everything."

He looks at me and smiles. "You asking about Torres?"

"No, I'm not. I want to know about the tiny humans on my Peds ward." I say cooly.

"You can ask, Robbins."

"You know as much as I want to ask. I'm not going to. I'm happy for her and whoever she's with." We stand up and walk to the door, "So tell me, are you with anyone?"

"Hell no, I'm single. Hey you can be my wingman." He offered.

"Please Karev. I may have been out of the dating game for a while, but I don't need no wingman."

"Right, let's see about that. Drinks at Joes after?"

"You're on." I laughed. "Well let's go, I need to be caught up so I can get started."


Callie POV

To say I'm a little on edge is an understatement. I'm a nervous and tired wreck, but it's nothing a cup of coffee can't fix. "Cal are you okay?"

"Of course." I smiled.

"I mean that's your third cup of coffee in the last 20 minutes. I think you should slow down on the caffeine."

I walk over to her and kiss her lips, "Yeah, you're right. I should be going." Just then I hear Mark knocking on the door. "Perfect timing." I smiled.

"Have a great day." She called out.

Walking across the street, Mark stops me. "Look, I know you're nervous, and Arizona meant a lot to you. So seeing her might rattle you a bit. But just keep it together. You're gonna be okay. Think of it this way, the sooner you see her the sooner you will stop feeling like this."

"Thanks Mark. I appreciate it. You could always see right through me."

I'm grateful, the moment I started work, it was slamming. I never got the chance to even think about Arizona or the fact that we are in the same building after 3 and a half years. Page after page. Scan after scan. I never ran into her and I'm grateful.

I grab my food and I sit at my regular table. I see my girlfriend walking to me and she sits right besides me. "Hey, how's your day going?"

"It's busy. How about you?"

"It's been steady, not much."

Of course it's dermatology. What can you really do? I thought to myself.

Just then I get a 911 page to the ER.

"Sorry, I gotta go." I stand up and kiss her cheek.

Running to the ER I'm met with April.

"What's going on?"

"15 year old, broken bones. Fell off of her roof."

"What?"

"Yeah, exactly. Peds is already inside."

In that moment I realized what she just said 15 year old and that means that this is a Peds case. April walks me to the room as I read the chart. I try my best to push everything I'm feeling out the way. When I open the door, I see Karev. I take a deep relaxing breath.

"Don't worry, it's just me." He laughed.

"Shut it Karev, or I'll make you do scut."

"Hey, I'm a fellow. You can't make me do scut."

"I'm an attending and head of my department. If I say do scut, that means you do scut."

"Damn, I was just joking." He says rolling his eyes.

"Anyways, tell me what's going on."

Karev fills me in and he books an OR. The surgery takes around 5 hours as we scrubbed out, my nerves start to get the best of me and I think he can sense it.

"You know, you can ask right?"

"Ask what?" I pretend not to know what he's talking about.

"Ask about Robbins."

"I don't need to know anything about her." I dry my hands off and walk out the door. As I'm walking out the scrub room I collide into someone.

"Oh shit I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention. It's just these shoes don't really brake as fast as they should." The person says to me and I know from the sound of her voice it's her. I close my eyes and take a breath.

"It's okay. Don't worry about it I say standing up. Clearly she hasn't realized it's me since she's still talking.

"I know I shouldn't be wearing these shoes, but there just so awesome." She laughed while dusting herself off.

Finally when she looks up, she shuts her mouth, shocked as hell.

"Arizona, it's nice to see you." I try to play off as if it's nothing.

"Umm.. yeah. It's nice to see you too."

"Well I better be going." I say walking away.

Right when I pass her. She calls my name. "Calliope."

My eyes shut as I hear her say my full name. Nobody can say my name the way Arizona can.

"No, I need to go." I take a step forward and she grabs my wrist. Trying to stop me and the feeling of just her hands ignite me and I know what Ive already known, but what I've been trying to deny, that I'm still in love with her.

"No, you don't get to do that."

She instantly let's go and gives me a small smile. "I'm sorry, I just wanted to let you know. You're more beautiful than the last time I've seen you."

"Oh you mean when you left me in an airport."

"Calliope, I'm sorry. It was what was best for the both of us."

I can feel my body fuming. Pissed at what she's saying to me. How can she say that hurting me in an airport was what was best for the both of us?

"Shut the fuck up and leave me alone. I don't need your apologies. I moved on." I say briskly walking away.

Karev walks out of the scrub room and looks at me. "Dude, she tore you a new one."

"Well I deserved it."

"Let's go to joes. First one is on me."


Walking into Joes, we take a seat at the bar.

"Dr. Robbins you're back?"

"I sure am Joe. How have you been?"

"I've been good, you look good. Africa did your skin good. It's glowing."

"Thank you. It's hot as hell out there."

"I bet, so what can I get you two?"

"We'll take two beers and 2 shots." Karev says grabbing money out of his wallet.

"Coming right up."

Joe places our drinks in front of us. We cheers and throw back our shots. We turn around on the stool taking in the environment. "You see anyone you like?"

Throwing my head back laughing. "Karev, I'm not gonna hook up with anyone. It's my first week back, and it's been a while. Also I was just fucking with you."

"Exactly it's you're first week back, I bet you weren't getting any ass in Africa."

"Shut up, but you're right. I didn't have time and I just couldn't do it. Don't get me wrong I had many offers."

"I bet." Karev laughs.

"Joe can we get 4 more shots please."

"Sure thing Dr. Robbins."

He places our drinks on the bar. "Here you go."

I turn my chair around to the bar and hand Karev 2 shots. We cheers and shoot them. I pick up my beer, when all of a sudden I get a feeling that Callie is here. My body could always sense when she we would walk into a room.

"Don't turn around. Callie's here with Ashley."

"Her girlfriends name is Ashley?"

"Yeah, dermatology."

"Who the fuck would chooses dermatology? I can't believe that's even a specialty." I laughed. Clearly feeling the alcohol.

"Robbins you're drunk?"

"No, but it's been years since I drank. So it might effect me faster."

"Arizona fucking Robbins!" I hear a booming voice.

"Marcus fucking Sloan!" I turn my chair around and smile at him. I stand to hug him.

"How is our superstar?"

"I'm good, how about you?"

"Fucking fantastic. Lexi and I were expecting our son in a few months."

"Damn, what's in the hospitals water that everyone is getting knocked up."

Mark laughs. "Maybe you should talk to Torres. I'm pretty sure she's waiting for you to knock her up."

"Well tell her to come here then." I laughed.

Mark gives me a challenging look. I nod my head back to him. Daring him too. Right when he turns. I stop him. "I'm just kidding. Don't do that. She's mad at me. And I can't blame her. So let her be happy. She's happy right?"

"Yeah, she is."

I know Mark would never lie, so hearing him say she's happy makes me feel good, yet hurt at the same time. But it does make it easier for me to keep going.

"Then that's good. I'm happy for her. She deserves it."


Callie POV

I sit in a booth next to Ashley, while Mark walks to the bar to get our drinks. I scan the room when I hear Mark yelling her name.

When Arizona and I first got together, I was surprised how much they took to each other. Nobody besides Derek and I really cared for Mark at that time. So when I introduced them to each other, I was a little nervous. Soon I realized that I was wrong to be nervous. They were cracking jokes and genuinely enjoying each other company. They would even hang out with out me on days I had surgeries. They would go to the gym. Ashley and him, they get along. I think Mark holds back cause he knows how badly I want to be happy.

I watch Arizona and Mark hug and laugh with each other. I see him turn and look at me but Arizona grabs his arm stopping him from walking to me. I wonder what that's about. From the looks of it the conversation got a little more serious.

"Hey Cal, are you okay?"

"Sorry, yes I am. Just a long day that's all."

Mark walks back to our table with our drinks. He hands me mines and Ashley hers.

"Cal, Arizona was just telling Karev and I about this new program she set up with Carter Maddison committee and our hospital. Every six months she's gonna be flying in a group from Malawi who needs surgeries and we get to work on them. Depending on the situation."

"That's good." I say downplaying it. While drinking my beer.

"Arizona? As in your ex?"

"Yeah."

"Where is she? I wanna know what she looks like?"

Of course Mark being Mark and very excited about Arizona's return open his big mouth. "You see Alex by the bar, well it's the hot blonde bombshell next to him."

"Wow, she is pretty. And from what I've been hearing, she's an amazing doctor."

"Yup, best pediatric surgeon in the country."

Inside I'm very proud to hear people praising her, but I can't shake off this anger I have towards her.

"I need to use the bathroom, I'll be back."

As I pass the bar, I see Arizona talking to some brunette. I don't think I ever seen that woman before. Our eyes connect, and I keep making my way to the bathroom. Standing in front of the mirror I try and collect myself. I start crying. Why is it like this? I swear I put myself back together again, but the moment I see her, I just want to throw caution to the wind and be with her again.

The door opens and I'm hoping it's Arizona. I don't know why. For what? I could kiss her? I could yell at her. But I all my hopes are thrown out because it's my girlfriend.

"Hey Callie, you and I we can be honest right?"

"Of course what's up babe?"

"I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared or nervous about losing you."

"What are you talking about?"

"All day long, I heard about Arizona. At first when you told me I wasn't worried. Then I started hearing all these great and amazing things about her. Then I hear Mark talk about the programs she started. While I was hearing all these things about her, I also heard how you two were so in love."

"Ashley-"

"Look, I love you Callie. I do. But I'm gonna admit, it's intimidating. Hearing about the great and world renowned surgeon Arizona Robbins. And the amazing world renowned Ortho surgeon Callie Torres and how they were legendary together. I could never compete with that."

"Ashley, I'm not asking you to compete. Arizona and I were done. We've been done the moment she left me in an airport. I will admit I'm a little rattled from seeing her. You don't need to worry I told you. Her I and I were done. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Let's go home. Baby."

As we walk out of the bathroom, I see Mark sitting by Karev at the bar and they're watching someone on the dance floor. I follow there eyes and it's Arizona and the same brunette dancing. She grinding all over her. I quickly turn my head and walk up to Mark.

"Hey Ash and I are gonna head home. I have an early day."

"Ok, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm good." He looks at me and gives me a grin. Knowing I'm lying.

"You sure?"

"Yeah I don't care. She's free to do whatever she wants and I love Ashley."

"That's good, because I had no clue how much fun blondie was before she met you. Her and I would have been a dangerous duo."

I laugh and roll my eyes. "Riggght, Arizona she has better game than you."

"You know Torres you're right, when you were in the bathroom. 4 women came up to her and she shot them all down. But this brunette she's with, was too hot to turn down."

Listening to him go on and on about Arizona and other women has me seething. Like I can't bare the thought of it. "Mark.."

"Sorry, I just thought you really were okay with it. After all you was joking with me. I'm sorry Cal."

"No, you're right. Well I'll see you in the morning."

Right when I turn I feel a rock hard body behind me,

"Dance with me." She whispered in my ear.

"Arizona..."

"Come on Callie, you know I want you."

"Really you seem to want that other women."

"No, I only want you." She breathed against my ear. I can smell the tequila from her lips. And I'm getting turned on thinking about everything she's doing to me. A drunk Arizona is a horny Arizona.

"Umm.. I can't."

"Come on, I need to feel your sexy body against mine. My hand grabbing on to those hips of yours. My lips against your neck."

"Ari-"

"I know I'm sorry, Callie. You can't. You have a girlfriend." She steps aside and walks to Karev and Mark, picking up her beer.

I look at Ashley and she's looking down at her phone, oblivious to what just happened. "You ready?"

"Yes." She puts her phone in her pocket and grabs my hand. My mind still on Arizona.


Arizona POV

Mark looks at me and folds his arms "Damn Robbins what the hell was that?"

"I don't know, I'm a little drunk and Callie always looks so damn good."

"You know she's in a serious relationship, right?"

"How serious?" I joked. I put my hands up. "I'm just kidding, but you're right. I shouldn't have done that. Especially since she yelled at me today to leave her alone."

"She yelled at you?"

"Oh yeah, you should've seen it Sloan. Callie got in her face and tore Robbins a new one." Alex laughed.

"Yeah, a pissed off Callie, always turned me on."

"Okay Eww."

The brunette walks up to me and smiles. "You wanna get out of here?"

As much as I want to, just to fuck someone brain out pretending that they're Callie. I decline. "Sorry, I wish I could, but I have an early day tomorrow." She grabs my hand and writes down her number. "Call me."

"Robbins what the hell?"

"Sorry, I just can't. I don't know what it is. I just can't."

"Is it because of Torres?"

"Maybe, I don't know. But I should go. Goodnight boys."

"No, you ain't going home drunk. You can stay at my place with Lexi and I."

Too tired to even argue. "Ok."
