Callie POV

Flashback

"I'm sorry dad! I have your medicine right here!" I screamed trying to get out of his reach.

"You piece of shit, good for nothing, dyke with a dick!" Carlos slurred.

Right when I make it to my door, I feel it. That fucking asshole got me. He threw the scissors right at me. I slam the door and run next to my closet. I look in the mirror and I see blood soaking through my shirt.

"Holy shit." I panted my body going pale. Through the door I can hear him pounding.

"I'm gonna kill you. I lost my family and all I'm left with is you! I hate you!" He screamed.

Within a second, my fight or flight instincts kick in and I I become immensely angry. Knowing if I don't leave this house, this stupid fucking hell I grew up and pushed through all these years. I would kill him. Packing up whatever, I could carry. I climbed out the window and make a dash for it. No destination, but at this point anywhere is better than here. Then Arizona pops in my head. I can't leave town and not tell her. All of a sudden my fathers voice pops in my head. "Everyone is better off with out you. You're nothing!"

He's right. Arizona would be better off with out me. She already is.

I sit on the side of the road and compress my shoulder as best as I could. Noticing the blood isn't flowing as much as it was earlier. I tie a small towel around me as tight as possible. Hopefully that will hold me off till I get somewhere. I continue walking and a few hours later a truck pulls up next to me. Rolling her window down, it's an older lady. Looks like 40-50 years old.

"Where you heading?" She yelled.

"Where you going?"

"Arizona."

Wow, what a coincidence.

"Perfect, that's where I was heading." Looking up solemnly.

She unlocks my door, and I jump in.

"Callie, Torres. Thank you ma'am."

"Name is Joy Sloan. How old are you?"

"I'm 20."

"You're around my sons age."

I nod my head in agreement. Not knowing what to say.

End of flashback

After I put the order in for our dinner, I take a quick shower and, we all eat dinner together, Arizona stands up and excuses herself to the bathroom. Everyone continues chatting away. Soon realizing it's been quite sometime and Arizona hasn't returned. I grab a box of doughnuts and excuse myself to my room. Hearing sniffling from the door, I rush in concerned.

"Arizona are you okay?"

No answer.

"Zona?"

"Callie, I can't do this. Not after all this time."

"You can't do what? Be my friend?"

Arizona takes a deep breath, and stands up. "It was nice seeing you again. I truly wish you the best in whatever you do."

She walks pass me and heads to the door.

"Just one night?"

Arizona slowly turns around and looks me dead in my eyes. "Excuse me?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean for it to sound that way."

Walking up to her, I grab her hand, and Arizona doesn't pull away.

"Please I, miss you. Can we just pretend that everything between is okay. Can you tell me how everything went with med school?"

Nobody has ever had a hold on me like this women does in front of me. I told myself if we ever cross paths. I would not let her go. I have a great life. I do what I love and I get paid for it, but something has always been missing.

Arizona POV

"I went to school and I became a Pediatrician." I said matter of fact.

Callie chuckles.

"What's so funny?"

"You still have that attitude."

"Yeah, whatever you say." I say rolling my eyes.

"So how's that going?"

Finally deciding, that maybe instead of fighting her, I could talk to her for one night, and if I'm being honest. I truly want to know about her also.

"Well I graduated. Got my MD. Did all my internship. Then finished my fellowship. Opened my practice, about two years ago."

"No ways. That's amazing Arizona. You're amazing!" Callie smiles.

"Yeah, thank you. So what happened to you?"

"Arizona I'm so-"

"Callie stop apologizing. I just want to know what happened."

"After my dad fucking lost it on me, I left. No place in mind I just left. While I was hitchhiking mama Joy picked me up."

"Mama Joy?"

"Yes Marks mom. She picked me up, fed me. Took care of me. I owe her everything." Callie smiles.

Looking at her as she tells me what happened, I can tell she made herself some sort of family after all these years.

"So she picked me up, questioned me about my life. She could tell I didn't want to talk about anything personal. But I couldn't be rude so I answered any question she had about my hobbies or what I was interested in. I'm not sure what made her do this, maybe cause I looked so lost. Maybe she could tell I was running from something. So instead of dropping my ass off at any highway. She took me home. Since I told her how much I loved cars, she introduced me to Mark."

"Mark doesn't race?"

"No, he's more of a collector kind of guy. Great manager though."

"How'd you become this big time racer?"

"Mark had friends in Florida, and one day we went on the race track and I finally felt alive. It's amazing how freeing it feels. Well I was really good at it and his friends got me into a few races. Then the rest is history." Callie smiled.

"How did you know I was racing?"

"Well it was 2nd year of my fellowship and my father died." I said quietly.

"What!?" Callie says spitting out her water.

"Umm yeah.. anyways I came back for his funeral and the word around was that you were getting into Nascar. So after fighting myself for months. I just watched."

"Arizona.. I'm sorry about your dad."

"Well we all know how charming he was, but it's okay, that's what happens after years of drinking your liver away." I whispered.

Callie puts her arm around me and pulls me in for a hug. Instead of fighting her, I give in. I let her hold me, and I don't regret it. She still feels like my home.

"Callie, it's getting late. You really should rest. You have your race tomorrow." I mumbled into her shoulder.

"I know I should, but I don't want you to go."

Deep down I know I should walk away, and not let her words affect me, but it's hard. I love that she doesn't want me to go. I don't want to go either.

"Arizona?"

"Huh?" I said looking up at Callie who has something in her hand.

"Take these passes and you can hang out where my crew is."

"No, that's not necessary." I say trying to play it cool.

"Come on Robbins. I know you want it." Callie teased.

Reaching for the passes, "Fine, I'll take your stupid passes."

"Good. I'll see you tomorrow?"

One more day, and you'll never see her again. You can do this Robbins.

"Yes. You will." I smiled popping my dimples.

Callie POV

Why is she still so damn beautiful? Better question is why does she have the most gorgeous smile in the world?

We're both looking into each other's eyes, and I can feel the tension still so strong between us. "Uhumm." Arizona clears her throat breaking the connection.

"I should.. Umm.. be going."

Standing up, I walk her to me bedroom door and right before, I turn the door knob, I decide to throw caution to the wind and go for it. Turning around, Arizona bumps right into me, and I wrap my arms around her. Trying my best to keep us balance.

"Woah." She squealed.

The moment her eyes land on my lips, I go for it. I lean in and kiss those lips. Arizona doesn't fight me back. Instead she's kissing me with more passion than I ever felt in my life. I bend my knees and pick her up and her legs instantly wrap around my waist. Turning us around I pin her to the door. Arizona pulls away to catch her breath and I go for her neck.

"Callie...ohhh my god. That feels so good." She moaned out loud, waking my cock up to its full attention.

My hands start sliding under her shirt and slowly inching my way to her breast.

"Take it off." She moaned.

Holy fuck, we should stop, but right now I only want her. I don't need anything else.

Pulling her shirt off, I slowly walk us to my bed, laying her down in the middle, I settle between her legs. Kissing my way from her lips to her earlobes, down to her neck. Gliding my tongue between the valley of her breast. Slowly sliding her bra down I latch on to her nipple.

"Callie, that feels so amazing. Don't stop." She says rolling her hips against my erection. We are so caught up into what we're doing, we don't hear the door open.

"Torres, I think it's time for-"

"Sloan get the fuck out of here." I snapped.

Totally shocked Arizona stays still and I hide her with my body.

"Sorry go ahead, I'll let you finish." Mark chuckled as he locked the door and shut it.

When we finally realize he's gone, we exhale.

Deciding I probably should get off her Arizona, I roll off to the side.

"Arizona, I'm-"

Picking up her shirt and putting it on, "What you want to apologize again? What's new?" Arizona snapped cutting me off from my sentence.

"No, what I was gonna say was, before you rudely cut me off was, Arizona, I'm not gonna apologize for what just happened. I'll never apologize for that."

"Oh.." she whispered. "Well I better go, before it gets too late."

Arizona opens the door and walks into the living room.

"Oh my god!" She screamed.

I walk out behind her lost to what's going on. "What?"

Walking out further, I see what she's talking about. On the couch April and Jackson are making out. They spring apart like teenagers being caught.

"April let's go. I'm tired and Callie needs to rest."

Wiping her lips she stands up."Yes of course. Goodnight Callie. Good luck tomorrow." April says practically out the door. "Good night Jackson. I'll wait for you by the elevator, Zona."

Arizona nods her head.

"Thanks April." I laughed.

Leaning against the door, I look at Arizona. "So about that kiss."

"Let's not read into that right now Callie. We just got caught up in the moment."

"Right so we're gonna ignore the fact that if Mark didn't walk in, I would be deep inside of you right now."

"Callie... I should um go... April's waiting for me." Arizona says ignoring my innuendo.

I nod my head agreeing.

"You better win tomorrow. Torres." Arizona yelled down the hallway.

"Always, Robbins. Always."

Closing the door, I turn around and I see Mark sitting on the couch.

"So that's her?"

"Yes, that's her. Arizona Robbins."

"I see why you were so hung up on her. She's hot."

"Yeah, she is, but she's so much more."

"I know. I can tell."

"Mark, I know you have questions and right now I need to focus on the race."

"Callie, whenever you're ready."

Arizona POV

"So that's her." April says quietly. Trying to gauge how to talk to me.

Shutting out hotel room door, I answer her. "Yup she's the one that broke me."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

I take a moment to think how to answer that question.

"You ever had something that was so precious. You never wanted to tell a soul about it cause that thing was yours."

"No, I'm not sure what you mean."

"You saw the state I was in. I was barely making it. Anyways even though she brought me to the lowest of lows. I loved her with everything in me. I wanted to keep what I shared with her to myself. As long as I could."

"Aww Arizona. That means.."

"Yes. She crushed me." I finished her sentence before April could.

I stand up to head to the bathroom. "Well I'm gonna shower. I need it after today."

"Okay. I'll go after you."

"April.."

"Yes Ari?"

"Tomorrow morning, when we wake up, you better tell me what happened between you and Jackson." I called out from the bathroom.

Sitting in the corner of the shower, I cry my eyes out. "I can't believe this is happening. I need to let her go. I can't do this again." I sobbed.

A/N: up next the race.
