Chapter 17
It´s been a week since Arizona asked her girls to move in together and they were over the moon. Carrying her last box with some more of her stuff into the bedroom, Callie already started to cook dinner when she finished to carry all the heavy and big stuff. To her surprise, Arizona didn´t have that many things, unlike a few years ago.
Sofia felt like the happiest kid on earth, for the first time in her life, her parents will live with her, well for the first time for her to remember.
"Mommy, will we walk Snuggles when you´re finished?"
The little brunette was amazing, taking good care of her friend and learning to be responsible.
Every day, she would go out and walk him at the same time, Callie and Arizona made sure that Sofia takes a big part in the process of raising and teaching Snuggles, so they watched some videos and googled to show Sofia a few things she needs to know. But at the end of the day, she was still a kid, just like little Snuggles, so they made sure that the two of them have a lot of play time and fun also.
"Yes, Munchkin. I´m ready in two minutes." Arizona shouted from the bedroom.
"Dinner is ready in 30, girls." Callie called from the kitchen.
A few minutes later the blonde was outside walking around the block with her daughter.
"This is so awesome:" Sofia stated.
"What exactly?" the peds surgeon questioned, not really knowing what Sofia means.
"That we are all living together now and with Snuggles. We are a real family and I can tell Tyler, so he will stop saying that I don´t have a family. But will you marry mama again?"
A little surprised by her daughter´s statement, the blonde says.
"We were a family before, Sofia. What Tyler says doesn´t matter and I hope he doesn´t bother you anymore but there are families all over the world were the parents don´t live together but still take care of their kids, they are still family and we were a family too, we´ve always been a family.
Mama and I haven´t talked about getting married again yet, we are still finding our way back together. I love your Mama and we are really happy right now, just like you but we need a little more time before thinking about a wedding, okay Munchkin?"
"Okay Mommy, I just saw this picture of you and mama at the wedding. When you love someone you marry them, right? And when you´re married you can have a baby and I can be a big sister just like Zola and Lucy. Lucy is telling everybody in school that she´ll be a big sister. I want that too."
"Oh dear she´s on a roll today" Arizona thought to herself while thinking about a good answer.
"Well you can tell everybody that you´re a doggy mama, that´s a big deal, don´t you think"
"Yea I love Snuggles. I´m being a good mama, right?"
"You´re the best for him, he is always happy. Now, let´s get back before we get in trouble with your mama for being late to diner."
The blonde loved how smart Sofia was, she was always on top of things but sometimes it scared her, she was still a kid and shouldn´t be worrying about too many things.
After dinner and getting Sofia ready for bed, the two women were laying in bed, cuddled up and talking about their day.
"So what do you think, after all this moving I think we deserve to have date night?" Callie says
"Sounds good, do you have something in mind?"
"Oh I have a lot on my mind, mostly you, naked and wet" the brunette played.
"That´s the most beautiful thing you ever told me" Arizona played along.
"Haha…. Well I was thinking, Dinner at a nice restaurant. Just something quiet. I would call Emely and see, if she looks after Sofia and Snuggles on Wednesday."
"Perfect, we have Thursday morning off, that means we can take Sofia to school and then spend the rest of our morning in bed."
"I like the sound of that."
"Did you think about us going to Seattle? I thought maybe we can go around Halloween? Sofia would love to dress up and party with Zola, what do you think?" the blonde questioned.
She promised Teddy and basically everybody else to come and visit some time soon and now, since she finally settled in, she felt ready to take a little trip back.
"You miss them, don´t you?" the Latina knew how much Arizona missed Seattle but she wasn´t sure if she was ready to go back and face everyone.
"I do, but I´m happy here. I just want to see our friends and want Sofia to see her friends to have good time."
"I know, it´s just….I think nobody wants to see me there. I mean I´m the reason, why you left. I´m the reason why our friends had to take sides in our custody battle."
"They miss you. And I know you miss them too. Nobody is mad at you."
"I´ll think about it, okay? Just give me another day or two."
"That´s alright."
"I love you, Goodnight"
"I love you too" sharing a loving kiss before drifting off to sleep.
It was finally Wednesday, Arizona was looking forward to her night with Callie. Work started to get better, at first she struggled a little about not being the head of the peds department but she just proved how much better she is with the great work.
Walking through the Hospital, she was looking to find the Latina in her office to have lunch together.
Arriving at the door she walked in surprised at what she found…
Callie was finished talking, her face was light red she looked mad.
Standing in front of her desk was no other than Penny.
"Everything okay here?" Arizona asked, a little confused.
She never saw Callie and Penny together much, just the usual when they needed to work together. But this here looked more serious and the blonde wanted to know what´s going on.
"Arizona..." Callie started, starring at her lover trying to find an explanation.
"Ahm, yes… Everything okay. Penny was just about to leave."
"We are not finished with that, Callie" Penny says as she walks pass Arizona and out of the door.
"Okay, you wanna tell me what was that about?" the blonde didn´t trust Penny and with this situation she just had a bad feeling.
"Nothing really… ready for lunch? I got us a table at the Italian place you like so much, for tonight." Callie was rambling and obviously trying the change the subject.
"I´ll just go with you, if you tell me what´s wrong. You were mad when I walked in..."
"We just had an argument about a case we have to work together." the Latina explained.
"Really?" Arizona wanted to make sure.
"Yes, really. Now lets have lunch."
And with that the duo headed to the cafeteria.
Date night was amazing, just some alone time was exactly what they needed.
For Arizona´s excitement, Callie agreed to visit Seattle in less than a week time.
After taking Sofia to school, the Latina hurried back home to her waiting lover.
They spend a few more hours worshipping each other bodies. Finally having the place to themselves, Callie was on a mission to take Arizona in all different places. Starting with the kitchen table after breakfast and ending with some hot bathroom sex.
The next day, Callie was pulled into an emergency surgery, so Arizona took a cap to go home.
Most of the time they would drive to the Hospital in separated cars to be more flexible but today they were on the same shift and thought going in one car would be easier.
So Arizona arrived home without Callie, but her daughter, Snuggles and Emely the babysitter were happy to see her.
"Hey Munchkin, how was your day?"
"Good, where is Mama?"
"She has another surgery but hopefully she´s home before you sleep."
"Emely, do you want to stay for dinner?"
The blonde asks the young girl. She was great with Sofia and Arizona was happy when Emely picked up Sofia after school and took her home, so she doesn´t need to stay in the daycare everyday.
This was something that bothers the peds surgeon, in Seattle, they would have Meredith and Zola and they were always making sure that the kids don´t spend too much time in the daycare but rather at home and play together with someone watching them.
"No thank you, Miss Robbins. I´ll meet some friends and have pizza."
"Please, I told you it´s Arizona. I know we don´t know each other that long but call me Arizona. Miss Robbins sounds soo old."
"Okay I´m sorry, Arizona. I´ll go now, you call me if you need me or when you´re back from Seattle?"
"Yes, we will call you when we come back, until then, I think we won´t need your help."
"That´s good, have a good time. Bye, Bye Sofia"
"Bye Emely"
The young girl left, leaving Sofia and Arizona alone in the apartment.
"So, what do you want for dinner?" The blonde asks as she walks over to the couch to give her daughter a little kiss.
"Can we have mac and cheese?" Sofia was already back focusing on her video game.
"Mac and cheese it is then."
Walking over to the kitchen counter she sees the mail laying around, checking it, she reads
"Smith & Clark Lawyer´s Office"
"It´s for Callie, why does Callie need a lawyer?" Arizona thinks to herself, starting to worry what´s going on.
