Callie POV
It's 7:30am and I'm knocking on Mark's door, and nobody is answering. Finally after my third knock, the door swings open and I don't know if I'm seeing things. It's Arizona and she's wearing a tank top showing off her toned body. I can see the outline of her abs.
"God, you're so loud." She says holding her head.
"Arizona what are you doing here?"
"I don't know. I'm guessing. I was too drunk to get home."
"Where's Mark?"
"I just woke up, I have no clue. Maybe he got paged. What time is it?"
"7:30."
"Oh shit. I need to get ready." She runs and puts her shirt back on.
I want to walk away, I need to walk away, but she always draws me in. I'm standing there watching her act as if nothing ever happened between us. I feel the anger building up again.
"Callie, I am sorry about last night. I had a lot to drink and I'm sorry old habits. And I know you're mad at me, but can we please just talk?"
"Arizona, I meant what I said. Just stop apologizing because I don't want to hear it anymore. Just please leave me alone. Don't look at me, don't stare at me. I don't want you anymore. I'm happy." I snapped.
"Ok."
I slam the door and walk away and head off to the hospital. I see Mark by the nurses station and I pull him into an empty room.
"Why didn't you tell me Arizona was at your apartment?"
"Well it is my apartment. I believe I can have whoever I want over."
"Mark!"
"What Callie? What's the big deal? She was drunk, and I didn't want her to take a taxi home. So I suggested for her to sleep on the couch. What's the big deal? She's my friend."
"I don't know. I'm just still-"
"In love with her?"
"No! She left me Mark. She left me in an airport. She never contacted me after. She literally left me. I thought I was over it... over her. But the moment I see her, I want to be with her and that alone gets me so mad."
"Look, you need to make a decision either you sit down and talk it through or you just move on with Ashley."
"I want to move on Mark. I'm trying, she's been here what almost 48 hours and I want to throw everything out the window and be with her."
"Callie, talk to her."
"No, I can't. She hurt me and I'm moving on. I moved on. It's just harder now that she's here."
"Cal-"
"I need to go Mark. I have rounds."
Arizona POV
After the second time Callie blown up on me. I got the picture that she seriously doesn't want anything to do with me. It's been about a month. Staying clear and out of her way. It's now Saturday and Mark invited Karev and I to work out with him at the gym.
"Damn, you've been working out Robbins?" Mark says.
"Well I have all this pent up sexual energy and I don't know what to do with it besides work out."
Alex drops his weights to the ground, "Well you could give that hot brunette a call?"
"I lost her number and I don't think I can."
"Robbins seriously what's stopping you?"
"Mark-"
"I know you still love her and you feel bad, but she yelled at you twice. To leave her alone."
"I am leaving her alone."
"Callie moved on, why don't you?" Alex asked.
"I don't want to talk about her anymore, someone just spot me?"
Mark stands behind the bar, "Go ahead, I got you Robbins."
As I put the bar back on to the peg, I switch positions with Karev. He's leaning on the plate rack, and when he moves the rack tips and 45 pound weight drops on my toe.
"Oh fuck!!!" I drop to the ground and grab my foot.
"Robbins I'm so sorry. Are you okay?"
I look at him and I want to punch his stupid face. "Does it look like I'm okay?" I say grabbing my foot. "I think I fucking broke it!"
"Arizona we should take you to the hospital." Mark says trying to pick me up.
"No, fuck that. I don't need to."
"Come on, Callie would be so mad if we didn't bring you in."
"Look, I don't care. I'm fine. It feels better."
"Okay fine try and move it." Mark says standing me up. I try to take a step but it hurts too much.
"Fuck!!"
"Yeah, let's go!"
"Okay, fine I'll go. But get me another doctor."
"Are you serious? Torres is the best."
"I don't care. Do it or take me to another hospital."
"Whatever." Karev snaps.
Mark carries me into the ER.
"What happened? April asked concerned.
"Ask Karev! He dropped a 45 pound plate on my fucking toe!"
"Okay take her to get scanned then bring her to Room 2 and Page Torres!" April demands an intern.
"No! Page someone else."
"Are you serious?"
"Yes! Do it. I don't care who. Just do it. And bring me some pain meds."
"Ok."
After taking the scans Mark and Alex meet me in room 2. "Where the hell is the pain meds? My toe feels like it's gonna fucking fall off!"
April walks in with a few pain pills and a cup of water. "Here that should do it."
I take the meds and drop to the bed in pain. "Finally!"
Mark stands up and walks to the door, "I'll be back."
"Mark you better keep your mouth shut."
"I'll be back, I just need to use the bathroom." He says stepping outside the door.
Callie POV
I'm walking down the hall and I see Mark in his work out clothes. "What are you doing here on your day off."
"Ohh Umm nothing. Just looking for Lexi."
"Isn't she off today too?"
"Oh yeah, you're right. Just had to grab something from my office."
"That makes no sense. Why would you go through the ER to go to your office?"
"Umm.. just wanted to take a walk."
"Mark Sloan, I know when you're lying to me."
"Fine, we were lifting weights and when Arizona went to switch positions with Karev he accidentally dropped a 45 pound plate on her toes."
"What!"
"Yeah, I think her toes broken. She couldn't move or walk."
"Why wasn't I paged?"
"Wellshedidntwantyou." Mark mumbled
I fold my arms and look at him, "I'm sorry you're gonna need to repeat that. Only slower this time."
"Callie, don't take it personally, but she wanted someone else."
"You got to be kidding me! Why?"
"You told her to leave you alone, and that's what she's doing."
"Mark, she's hurt. She can't be that stupid. What room is she in?"
"I can't tell you."
"Fine, I'll just go through every room."
"She made me promise not to tell you."
"Whatever, I'll just look it up."
"Fine she's in room 2."
I walk around him and make my way to room 2. I walk up to the door and I can hear her talking.
"Karev, why the fuck did you drop that on my toe?"
"Zona, it was an accident."
"I know, I was just kidding. I hope I get Callie as my doctor. She's still so hot."
"Arizona, you told us to get you another doctor."
"Did I? No ways I want Callie. I always want Callie."
"You're high." He laughs.
"Oh yes." She giggled.
I knock on the door to make my presence known.
Karev stands up "Callie, what are you doing here?"
"Well, it seems like she needs an ortho consult and that's what I am."
"I'm sorry, but she asked for someone else."
"Shut it Karev. I'll take her." Arizona giggled.
"Whatever. I'll wait outside and let the nurse know that we don't need another Ortho doctor. " Karev grumbled.
I grab the chair and roll it to her bed.
"So what happened?"
"Doesn't it say in the chart?" She quipped.
"It does, but I asked you."
"Okay well Dr. Torres, You see I have all this built up sexual frustrations by-"
I close my eyes and try to push past what she's saying. "Arizona-"
She sits up and leans forward to move my bangs out of my face and to the side. I try hard not to show how much that affected me. "You wanted to know so let me tell you."
"Okay go ahead."
"So since I have so much frustration built up I go to the gym and try to release it. So I was benching, and when I went to switch with Karev, he accidentally dropped the 45 pound plate on my toe, and I hope you don't need to cut it off."
I can't help but chuckle. "Well I don't think I need to cut it off. From the look of your X-ray it's fractured and it has a lot of pressure build up. So all I have to do is stick a needle inside to release the pressure and I'll just bandage it together."
"Wow that's it? When I came in, I thought it was gonna fall off. I know that wasn't gonna happen because I am a doctor but it hurt like a bitch."
"So how's the pain now?"
"Well my toe will be fine, but my heart I don't think it will ever heal, but I'm trying."
"Arizona.."
"It's okay Callie. I understand your new girlfriend makes you happy. And I'm happy for you. By the way the fact that you moved on to a derm doctor makes it so much easier. Like I'm glad you didn't go and get you a better doctor than me."
"Arizona it's hard to find a better doctor than you. You're the best."
"Thanks."
"But I bet I could get anything out of your right now."
"No ways!"
"Why did you come back here?"
"Callie I may be high, but I know what you're trying to do. If we have a talk I want it sober."
"You're too smart Dr. Robbins." I stand up and grab all the supplies I need. "Okay you might feel a slight pinch but it will be over real quick."
"Fucking shit!" She hissed.
I try my best not to smile or laugh.
"You know you can at least try and hide that you enjoyed that."
"I didn't enjoy that."
"Whatever, I seen you bitting the corner of your lips."
"Okay I'm gonna wrap your two toes together and I want you to keep your weight off of it for a few weeks."
"A few weeks? So I can't work?" She says in disgust.
"You can. Just use crutches. Or a knee walker?"
She folds her arm and looks at me with those blue eyes that I love so much. "Oh yeah cause all the chicks love a knee walker."
"I don't know maybe you could pack them on it?" I teased.
"Maybe I can pack you on me?" She mumbles under her breath. My mind goes back to all those times we had sex. Sex with Arizona was on a level of its own. She knew exactly what I liked, how I liked it. She could read me like a book. I shake my head bringing me back to the situation at hand.
I know I need to get out of here, because looking at her and talking to her it feels like nothing ever happened between us.
"Well I'll go get Mark or Alex and a nurse will be back with your discharge papers." I walk to the door and I hear her call my name.
"Hey Callie?"
I face the door never looking at her, and I answer her, "Yes?"
"I missed you, you know everyday. I missed you. I want you to know that I never stopped thinking about you."
I don't say a word as I feel the tears rolling down my face. I nod my head letting her know I heard her and I walk out the door and wipe my tears. I walk up to Mark and Alex. "She's fine just gotta stay off her foot for a couple of weeks. The nurse is gonna discharge her."
"Thanks Callie." Alex says walking to her room.
"Cal are you okay?" Mark asked as he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.
"Yeah, I'll be fine."
Arizona POV
Alex walks into the room and takes the seat next to the bed. "Hey Zona, I need to start work soon. Mark is gonna take you home."
"Okay."
"Sorry about your foot." He apologizes.
Sitting up I turn to him, "Don't worry about it, I know you didn't do it on purpose."
"Still, I'm sorry. I know talking to Torres couldn't have been easy."
"It's not, but I deserved it."
The nurse walks in with discharge papers. I sign it and Mark wheels in a wheelchair.
"Sorry Robbins. Hospital policy's." He chuckled.
"Whatever don't act like you aren't gonna enjoy this Sloan!"
"You're right. I'll make sure to push extra slow."
Once we get in the car, Mark turns to me, "So Arizona where do you live?"
"I bought a house a few minutes away from the hospital."
"Wait you bought a house?"
"I did. I actually bought it two years ago. I mean it's a fixer upper, but yeah."
I type in the address and past my phone to Mark. When we pull up the long driveway, he looks at me. "Arizona this is huge."
"Yeah, it is. I figure it would be perfect."
"Perfect for what?"
"The dream that I once had, I'm gonna fix it and then sell it. I don't need all of this. An apartment will do. You wanna come in? I can show you around."
"Yeah, let's go. How's your toe feel?"
"It's okay. Just past me the crutches. I'll be fine."
We walk in and I tell him the details. "When I bought it I didn't realize how big it was. It's 5 bedrooms. 4 and half baths. It comes with a small office, a game room. The kitchen is huge. Perfect for gatherings and what not. I actually bought it for the acreage. It's 15 acres."
"Robbins your house makes Dereks look tiny."
"I mean he has an amazing view. I just wanted privacy and whatever."
"Whatever what?"
"You better not tell anyone this okay?"
"Yeah I promise."
"I believe it was a little after the shooting, when I asked her what her dream house would be. And she told me that she wanted a big house for our children. A lot of land so we could build each kid a home. She wanted a huge kitchen. So when I saw this house for sale. I knew I had to buy it."
"You were looking at homes in Africa?"
"I was looking for homes before I even left... but I need to let this go. She's happy and I need to be happy also."
We sit down in the living room for I could elevate my leg.
"So what are you gonna fix?"
"Well I'm gonna extend the living room, and add on another one. Build an outside deck with an outdoor kitchen. Add a couple more bedrooms. I told my contractor if he could build a workshop off to the side. Also I'm gonna add a green house."
"Holy shit Robbins. You really thought it through."
"I did. So after I do all that work I should be able to make a good profit off of it."
"How much?"
"Hey I don't like talking money with friends."
"Come on Robbins. You're like a sister to me."
"Fine, I bought this place for 2 million and I should be able to sell it for 7 million after I fix everything."
"Fuck, are you serious? How did you have that much money to buy this place? Don't you have loans?"
"The grant paid all my student loans off and I've been saving from before that. So I bought it cash. Why do you still have loans? Aren't you planing on buying a house?"
"I just actually just paid mine off and now we are working to pay Lexi's one off. So in a few years we should be able to buy a house."
"That's great, I'm happy for you. You and Lexi belong together."
"Yeah, just like you and Torres."
"Mark. You know and I know she's still mad at me. She literally hates me. She won't give me the time of day at all."
"Arizona, Callie loves you. She will forever be in love with you. Everyone knows this. I'm pretty sure Ashley even knows."
"Yeah, I'm sure she does. But it's not fair to either of them. So I need to let her go. I thought I did when I was in Africa. I spent years telling myself that I'll be okay. That I'm over her. That she moved on. And really all that matters to me is that she's happy. She said she's happy. You say she's happy. But when I see her. I just want to run up and grab her and never let her go."
"Do you want her in your life?"
"Of course I do. But I know I hurt her probably beyond repair. Callie deserves the best and I'm not that. I failed her so many times."
"Arizona-"
"Mark, im sorry but I'm getting very tired and I can feel the pain meds starting to wear off. Can you pass me another one please?"
"Sure, Robbins. I'll set your stuff right here. I'm gonna go home and let you rest. Are you gonna be okay?"
"Yes, I'll be fine. And please don't tell anyone where I live and please don't tell Callie anything. I know she's your best friend but please don't tell her this."
"I won't Robbins. I promise."
