TRUE COLORS
Callie felt hurt that Alex would even think that about her. She felt pissed that George touched her at all while she was practically unconscious. Mostly, she felt betrayed that Alex didn't trust her enough to ask before assuming that she was back together with George. By the time she made it to the basement and saw him with Avery, she was downright pissed. She stormed over to them, Avery comically gulped, with fire in eyes and all but screamed, "Who the fuck do you think you are Alex? I had to find out from Kepner why you're so pissed at me!" "Look Cal-", Alex interrupted but Callie stopped him. "Shut the fuck up!" Alex did as she asked and waited for her to speak. "I was taking a nap. I didn't know that George was in the on-call room. I thought that you were the one massaging my calves like you always do when I'm out of surgery. I thought that it was you that kissed my temple, like you always do even though it doesn't take the headache away, when I said that my head hurt. You should've asked me instead of assuming. I would never go back to George after what he put me through. My life has been a rollercoaster for the past 2 ½ years before you and Avril became a big part of my life. I've been less stressed with this pregnancy because of you. Every time George does bullshit towards me, you deflect even though you think I don't already know that. You don't get to do this." Tears started to trickle down her face, Alex reached out, but she pulled away, "Do what Cal?" Callie stared at him through tears, "You don't get to show me how a man is truly supposed to care about a woman only to bolt. I've never dated somebody that treats me the way you do and we aren't even dating. You don't get to make me fall in love with your kid and walk away. If you don't trust me, then everything needs to stop right here and now. Don't worry, I'll be the one holding the scissors this time."
