Hello everyone. This is my FIRST Grey's anatomy fic. I just happen to fall in love with it again and need to write about my favorite pair, Calzona. I hope you like it and I'd be very happy to know what you think of it. I try to update fast. Reviews always motivate me a lot ;). Honestly, I should not start a story because I have lots of things to do but...well, I just couldn't leave my thoughts to myself! I love sharing ideas and I hope some of you are happy that I did. Usually my chapters are longer but I just want to know if anyone would even be interested in the story...I'm about to write the next chapter...right...NOW!
ENJOY!
Your Caseyjr!

"Don't you want to leave the apartment? We could go to the park with Sofia and just…" Callie tried to start a conversation with her wife. She had tried for month but her wife would just either stare into nothing or yell at her. That wasn't the Arizona she knew. The one that was bubbly, chatty and would brighten the room with her cute dimpled smile.
"No. You two have fun, I'll stay!" Arizona said in a cold voice. She didn't want to be like that. God, she had not even known that she was capable of feeling such hateful emotions. But there she was, with only one leg left.
"Arizona…," Callie said softly and touched her back but Arizona immediately flinched away. Callie stood up sadly and walked to the door but then she turned around again and whispered, "Sofia misses you."

Arizona had never cried that much as in the last three months. She woke up with tears in her eyes and she fell asleep with them. Tears were her constant companions. She hated it. She just wished to wake up again, with two legs, with happy emotions and in Callie's arms. She missed Callie but she also was so mad at her. She didn't want to be mad at Callie because truth to be told, she knew that it was not her wife's fault that she was now an amputee. Arizona saw the pain in her wife's face, she knew that Callie missed Mark and she missed him too and wanted to be supportive but she had no clue how to become her old self. She looked down at her left leg that was not there any more. She was disgusted. Disgusted by her own body. Her instincts told her to run, to run far away but her body would not listen. Not at all. She couldn't run any more. How? With just one leg.

Alex ran into the patient room and couldn't believe who was lying in the bed with a pink cast on one of her arms. "What…what happened?" he sat down besides the bed and went through the patient's hair. When the patient looked away and didn't answer, he knew what had happened. "Laura! I told you not to do that."
"Sorry!" Laura whispered and gave him a huge smile. He could see that she had lost one front tooth.
"When did you loose your tooth?" Alex asked softly.
"Yesterday but the tooth fairy didn't come." Laura answered sadly.
"Maybe because you're in a hospital. She doesn't know where you are. Maybe it's under this pillow."
Laura immediately sat down on her knees and looked under the pillow. A huge smile appeared on her face when she saw 20 dollars under it, "She came, Alex!"
"Yup, now tell me what exactly happened."

"I can't. I can't do this any more." Callie cried heavily in Bailey's arms. Since the accident this wasn't an unusual situation, "Will she ever stop blaming me? I'm not allowed to even give her a hug, let alone a kiss. She's…she's so far away from being her old self and I'm helpless. I'm useless. I don't know what to do."
"Give her time. She will come around but…"
"I give her as much time as she needs but do you really think that we will be happy one day. Just happy?" Callie asked with hope in her voice.
"I don't think that. I know that. You two love each other and you already went through a lot. She needs you and you need her…" Bailey wanted to say more when Alex came inside with a child on his back.
"Bailey!" Laura said happily and jumped down Alex's shoulder. She jumped on one leg to Bailey and gave her a big hug.
"Laura. What…why are you in the hospital?" Bailey asked shocked and looked her up and down, "Are you okay?"
"Yes, just this cast. Alex already signed it." Laura showed it to Bailey and then looked at Callie. She could see that Callie had cried and held and gave her a soft smile.
"C'mon, we have patients." Alex said when he found what he needed and took Laura's hand.

Callie couldn't believe what she had just seen. A little girl, jumping on one leg like it was the most normal thing to do. Of course without a prosthesis the girl had to jump but it didn't even look like it was hard. Callie closed her eyes and suddenly had hope. Maybe one day her wife would be just like the little girl. Happy, although she had only one leg left. Callie wished for this day to happen. "Some day. Give her time," she said to herself and then walked out of the room to meet some patients.
