Chapter 7

It was 9 am in Christmas morning. Callie, Arizona and Sofia were sitting around the coffee table in the living room having breakfast. Sofia was crazy about all her gifts.

Can we go to the park and try my bike, mommies? Pleeeeeeeeeasee? – She didn't stop jumping while she said all this. Callie and Arizona looked at each other.

Ok, but you don't take your jacket off, alright? It's frozen out there. - Callie said while Sofia went running upstairs to look for her warm clothes.

I got something for you- Callie said taking a small box from her pocket. - I saw it yesterday and it remind me of you. Just a little something to say thank you.

Oh... Callie I didn't get you anything...- Arizona said feeling bad about it.

You have given me yesterday AND today with Sofia… and you. That is the most beautiful present in the world- Callie truly meant it. - Come on, open it. I hope you like it.

Arizona opened the box. It was a beautiful butterfly pin made of gold. Beautiful so so so beautiful. Arizona took the pin out of the box and touched it softly with her fingers. She couldn't stop smiling at it. It was hard to hold up her emotions. Callie saw something that reminds her of her. Callie thinks about her? Ok, no it just a way to say thanks. But she could have got anything and she got me this. Stop it. Just a thanks.

You like it? – Callie said bringing Arizona back to earth.

It's gorgeous Callie, thank you. - She gave Callie her million dollar smile and without a second thought she hugged her.

Your welcome- Callie said returning the hug.

Ready! - Sofia yells out from the stairs. The women broke the embrace, got up from the floor and got themselves ready for the cold. Sofia took her bike and they made their way to the park walking, since it was a couple of blocks away.

The park was full of kids running all around, playing with their new toys. Sofia was riding her bike with all the excitement while her mothers were sitting in a bench. There were two brothers right next to them who were playing with control remote cars. They were getting ready for a race while their dad was marking the finished line with a chalk a couple of steps ahead. They were laughing so happily. There is nothing more beautiful than the sound of children laughing. Arizona thinks. They remind her of her and Tim. They were such a good friends besides of being can't help but thinking what if she wouldn't lose her baby. Sofia would have someone to play just like these two kids. She would've had someone. Maybe it isn't too late? What if… but what if are not good for her mental health so she just stops.

Where did you go? -Callie asked her. She knows her ex wife like the back of her hand.

Uh? Nowhere I just… I was thinking. - Luckily Sofia just came to sit between them. She was tired and starved.

I'm hungry! - She said

Me too! What if we go for lunch? - Arizona said

I want a burger! - Sofia said- Can I?

Sure you can. Come on- Callie said

They went back to Arizona's apartment to let the bike there and went straight to a near place for lunch. Sofia sat next to Arizona and both of them in front of Callie, in a table near a window. It was pretty cold outside but it was a sunny day. They were having an incredible Christmas day. Sofia was having a blast by having her two moms together. And the fact that her moms were smiling and joking, it was really good.

You're friends again? - Sofia asked giving the biggest bite to her cheeseburger. Arizona looked at Callie.

We always been friends- Callie answered

But we never spend time together and now we are here! I Love it! - Sofia said with a huge smile.

We do too! - Callie replied

So we are going to stay here in Seattle forever then? - The little kid said

Sofia…- Arizona said looking her kid straight to her eyes. Sofia might be a kid but she was a smartass. She knew what she was doing. Every time Arizona and Sofia had been alone, the little brunette has expressed her desire of staying in Seattle with her and not coming back. And they had agreed on making what it was the best for Callie. But here she was trying to trick Callie.

No. It's ok- Callie said. - You know I have to go back to New York, because Penny is there- Callie explains.

I know. And she makes you happy- Sofia said looking for her blonde mother approval who gave her the biggest proud smile in return.

You know what make me happier than anything? -Callie said looking to her kid- You being happy. Are you happy Sofia?

Yes, mama! Very! - Sofia said smiling at her mum. Arizona didn't say a thing. She just listens to the conversation and sees where Callie was going with it.

And you don't want to go back to New York, do you? - Callie asked. Sofia says anything. She was debating if she should say the true or not. She looked from Callie to Arizona, back and forth.

It's Ok, baby, you can tell me the truth- Callie said giving Sofia a reassured smile trying to convince the little one.

I... I like New York but I miss mommy and Zola all the time- Sofia said trying not to hurt her mama.

I know hon. You wanna live here again. - Callie stated.

Can we?

Yes. you can stay here with mommy

like forever? - Sofia ask doubting if she didn't understand well.

Yes, yes. You can live here in Seattle again- Sofia stood up from her chair and went to her mama's lap and hugged her so hard that it hurts.

Thank you, mama. I love you- Sofia said giving her mama the biggest smile of all times. Callie knew she was doing the right thing when she saw how those brown eyes lit up with the good news. Sofia being happy was all it matters. She hugged her back and looked at Arizona who had the most confused face.

I'll explain later- Callie told Arizona.

You better- The blonde answered. She didn't want it to get excited or anything. She has no clue what was going on in Callie's mind. But she could be certain that the brunette wouldn't get her daughter hopes up if she wasn't sure about what she was talking. She decided to let it go for now and finishes lunch.

After that, they went back to Arizona's apartment so Sofia could get a nap because she was pretty exhausted. Once she was confortable in her bed her two moms went downstairs to have a serious conversation.

Start talking- Arizona said to Callie. She was getting impatience.

Arizona I...- she sighs- Can we sit?

Fine. But get straight to the point, Callie. I wanna know for sure what is going on. - They sat down on the couch next to each other.

I heard Sofia talking to Zola about not being happy in New York, pretending she was so I can be happy. So I have decided to let her stay here.

Why?

Because she isn't happy in New York with me. She wants to be here with you- Callie said with sadness in her voice.

Is not like that.

But it is- Callie said- her home is here, with you.

Callie... come on. She is adapting, it'll take time, she is a kid.

You used to move all the time. Had taken you this long to adapt?

At first it took me time too, and then I just got used to. And it was different because I moved around with my entire family, not part of it.

I have made a decision, anyway.

Obviously. One that you haven't consulted with me, again. Didn't we agree on talk to each other when is about Sofia? - Arizona said getting mad.

I know, but aren't you happy about it?

About having Sofia back with me? Of course, I am Callie, but you should have talked to me before telling her. We agreed on making this kind of decision together, Callie!

It was a thing of the moment. I didn't plan on telling her there. It just came out. Of course I was gonna talk to you first but she looked so sad about it I just has to tell her.

So? She is staying?

If you will take her- Callie gave her a small smile.

Of course I'll take her! - Arizona said with a huge smile. She was a little mad at Callie for not talking to her first, but the joy of having her child back it was bigger than her anger right now. – Are you going to be fine?

Me? Yeah. Don't worry about it. We should talk about school, tho. You think her old school will take her back in the middle of the school year?

I'll call first thing tomorrow- Arizona said.

Ok. Well, I have to go now. We can discuss about it later. Tomorrow, maybe? Call me if you have news about school.

Alright, then.

Thank you for today again. And I am sorry I blurt out this on you.

It's fine because it was a good thing this time. But talk to me Callie, ok? - Arizona said and got a nodded from the brunette.

It was Tuesday, around lunch time, Callie has been in surgery with Dr. Carlson and Dr. Webber for hours now and she was starving. She went to the cafeteria to get something to eat and was met by her former colleague.

Hey, Torres, here have a sit- Owen called her.

Thanks

How the surgery went?

Good. Luckily.

How long are you staying? - Jackson, who was sitting with them, asked.

Till tomorrow. My fly takes off at midday.

Good, so you can come and hang out with us tonight. We are all going to Joe's.

What's the plan? - Callie said.

Umm getting drunk? - Amelia said while taking a sit next to Callie. She has just caught up the tail of the conversation. – What? - she said when all the rest of them looked at her- Oh come on, not me, but all of you- she said laughing.

But there is something we are celebrating? - Callie asked them

Yes. – Owen said. - that we are badass doctors.

That we have survived marriage for 6 month, so far- Amelia said smiling at Owen

I am handling co- parenting with April just fine.-Jackson added.

And you are here! –Owen said- We don't need a reason to just go out, do we?

No, no of course. Sure, I'll spend my last night in Seattle getting wasted at Joe's as old times! - Callie said- who else is going?

Probably everybody. There's gonna be some Christmas special. One hour open bar. I think it is from 9 to 10. So just imagine. - Jackson said.

Oh right! - Callie said- You already got me in! – she said chuckling

Once she finished lunch, she headed to the ortho ward to say goodbye to Carlson. In her way, she found Arizona in a hallway. They had made new arrangement regarding Sofia, the school was reluctant at taken her in in the middle of school year but Arizona finally get them on board. Who knows how. Probably by just smiling at them. Callie thought that day. So Callie only needed to send all of Sofia belonging back to Seattle. Penny has already made her the favor of asking for Sofia's paper at school in New York so they can make the exchange. The red head didn't make any question. She knew this couldn't just come out of nowhere but the brunette wouldn't tell her anything on the phone so she just let it go until they see each other again. The blonde was super cheery and she was smiling at her phone again. Who is this woman, Callie thought about teasing Arizona again but she decided no to.

Hey! Robbins!- Callie called when she noticed Arizona was about to past by her and didn't even see her.

Oh! Hey Callie! Good I meet you

Yeah? Why?

I need a favor. Can you have Sofia tonight?

You just got her back and you are already wanting to get rid of her?- Callie said smirking

Are you going to use this against me next time we go to court?- Arizona said joking. Callie face changed completely and the blonde quickly said- I am just joking.

Too soon.- Callie said and gave her a smile- Did I ever tell you that you suck at jokes? – she said chuckling. - it is fine but I am so so sorry I can't either.

Ohhh why?- Arizona complains.

I'm going out too.

Let me guess. Joe's ?

Yup. You too?

Yeah, there's an open bar!

I know- They both looked at each other and started laughing.

Meredith will be there too, I'm not even gonna ask.- Arizona said thinking who can watch Sofia on her night off. It's been a week since all Arizona do is being with Sofia, and she was enjoying every second of it but now, she was back at work and really needed to have some adult interaction.

Talk to Maggie. I think she is having Mer's kids. One more kid won't make the difference, right?

You ask her.

Why me?

You are more friends with her than me, please?

Fine. I'll text her.- Callie said taking her phone from her pocket and sending the message to Maggie.- Who are you going with?- Callie asked trying to find out if the woman Arizona is dating was gonna be there too.

April and DeLuca.

Just them? – Callie said smirking

Maybe some other friends. I know where you are going. Drop it- Arizona said with a smile. She could read Callie's intentions from a block away.

Well, I guess I'll see you there, then and maybe your other friends – Callie said walking her way.

Wait! – Arizona called her– tell me what Maggie says.

I'll get back to you when she answ- Callie was about to say when she noticed Arizona's coat pocket. It had the butterfly pin in.- You are using it- Callie said

Uhu?- Arizona said and Callie point it out the pin- oh! Of course I am. It's beautiful. I am winning lot of enemies in my Peds ward, by the way. All the little girls want me to give it to them and made a tantrum when I say no!- Arizona said chuckling and Callie gave her her best smile. She was really glad Arizona like her gift and even more she is wearing it.

I'm glad, then.

That they hate me?

Funny. That you like it- she said and her phone buzzed. She read the text and said- Maggie will be happy to have Sofia tonight. They are going to have movie night, she said. I'll look for her at school as we agreed and instead of dropping her later at your home she can just stay there at Mer's until tomorrow.

Perfect! - Arizona said- give her a kiss for me. See ya tonight!

See you- Callie said and looked at her ex wife walking away. How hard has gotten to leave Seattle this time. Ten times hardest than six months ago. Because six months ago she was miserable here. Her relationship with Arizona was ruined for what she though, ever. And now everything has changed. Being away has given her some perspective. It has helped her realize what she really had some truly complicated conversations to have ahead, but for now she will enjoy tonight with her friends. And then she get down to it.

Next Chapter we'll meet this woman in Arizona's life!

but Calzona is endgame!

See you!
