It was the morning after Levi and Arizona decided to try being friends. Levi turned off her alarm and rolled out of bed and into the shower. She was excited for work today, not only because she got to see Arizona but it was Halloween and she'd heard how interesting the pit becomes once the festive start going. It had been a while since she had done anything other than rounds so she was happy to be getting back to what she loves today.
She got changed and headed out to work throwing on her headphones and putting a happy playlist on. She was in high spirits that she almost danced her way to work.
"Someone looks happy" Meredith said while tapping Levi.
"Oh hey!" Levi said with a big smile.
"Someone's woke up on the right side of the bed this morning" suggested Meredith.
"I'm just in a good mood, it's my first day back doing actual work and not rounds" said Levi while grabbing a coffee from the cart.
"You won't be saying that later when you don't know what's real blood and what's fake" laughed Meredith.
"I'm sure it can't be that bad"
"Oh I know, it's worse!" Meredith said while taking a seat in the staff area.
"HAPPY HALLOWEEN" shouted April from the doorway.
"Jesus! You nearly put me in a early grave!" Levi said while trying to catch her breathe.
"Sorry, I just love the pit this time of year. It's so eventful" April said while jumping up and down in excitement.
"Who would of thought you where a little angel, daughter of god before you worked here" Arizona said laughing while entering the room.
"I'm still a daughter of god Robbins I just can appreciate others beliefs"
"Halloween is a belief?" Levi said shaking her head while laughing.
"No but the devil is" Meredith lost it. She burst out laughing.
"You three are killing my joy, I'm going to speak to someone who cares" April said while storming out.
"Someone's touchy" Meredith said while grabbing her lab coat. "Good luck in the pit Taylor, don't come crying to me later when you've had enough!"
"I won't" smiled Levi.
"So you have the pit today?" Arizona asked.
"Yep! Today and tonight"
"Double shift on Halloween, who did you piss off to get that?"
"Well, Amelia wanted the night off so we swapped shifts, obviously if someone comes in and it's serious she's on call but Webber allowed it" explained Levi.
"Why on earth would you want to be on a-" Arizona paused and smirked. "Wait. Did you want to be with me?" She said throwing a wink at Levi.
"What! You're on a double too? I didn't even know. What a coincidence" Levi said sarcastically.
"It's been less than twenty four hours and you can't stay away" flirted Arizona as she stepped closer to Levi.
They where so close Levi could feel Arizona's breath on her skin. She felt a tingling sensation throughout her body and she felt nervous. Arizona did something to Levi when she flirted that she couldn't explain. She took a deep breath and smiled.
"Just wanted to spend some quality time with a friend" Levi said with confidence.
Arizona leaned in to Levi's ear. "Hmm sure. See you around then" and with that Arizona walked out.
Levi had to take a few minutes to compose herself when the new intern Kelsey walked in. Levi hadn't ever actually met Kelsey officially yet. They'd been on different shifts since the shooting.
"Oh hi, you must be Dr.Taylor" Kelsey said with a smile. "I'm Dr. Wills"
"Hi, nice to meet you" Levi lied. It wasn't nice, the last time she seen Kelsey it was when she had her tongue down Arizonas throat.
"So…are you working the pit today?" Kelsey asked.
"I am, you?" Levi replied. She wasn't trying to come off as blunt as she was, she couldn't control it.
"I am. On a double too! Nightmare"
"Double? You too?" Levi said in shock.
"Unfortunately yes." Shrugged Kelsey.
"Guess we'll be working together all day then" said Levi.
"Don't sound so enthusiastic about that now" laughed Kelsey.
"Sorry, I don't mean to be. It's my first day back after some time off so I'm nervous" Levi explained.
"I'm sure you'll be great."
Kelsey was being so nice to Levi and Levi hated it because it would be a lot easier if she was a bitch but she was overly nice.
"Best get to it then" Levi said while heading for the door.
"See you there" replied Kelsey.
As Levi reached the pit, Arizona was stood by the door getting some fresh air.
"Can't keep away" Arizona said as Levi approached her.
"Guess who I've just met?"
"Who?" Arizona said with a confused look.
"Your favourite new intern" smirked Levi.
"Kelsey?..she's on shift today"
"Oh even better, she's on a double, with me, in the pit" laughed Levi.
"Ooh someone really does hate you up there don't they" giggled Arizona while pointing towards the sky.
"Wow. Thanks…and she best not be your favourite" Levi said throwing Arizona a frown.
"Or what?" Arizona said turning to face Levi.
"Or I don't think we could be friends" Levi said still frowning.
"Do I hint jealousy?" Arizona asked.
"Friends don't get jealous"
"Exactly." Arizona crossed her arms and just stared at Levi waiting for a reaction. Levi kept it cool. She knew Arizona would want her to break and she wasn't going to lose.
"Exactly, so I'm not jealous" Levi said while pressing the button to open the doors of the pit. "She just best be good and not fuck up my shift"
"Oh she's good" Arizona said with a smirk.
"Good" Levi said storming back into the pit. Levi wanted to punch something. 'Oh she's good' is she, she thought to herself. She knew Arizona was winding her up and she didn't like it one bit but she needed to not break. Two can play that game she thought and she was going to play.
