"I can't do that!" Arizona whispered and looked at Laura and the doctor. She had had physiotherapy for two weeks now, every day and she was getting better and better.
"You always say that," Laura put her underarms on Arizona's lap and smiled up at her.
Arizona really liked the little girl and somehow she could never say no to her.
"Okay, so here's the ball. You get 1,5 hours. Just…do whatever you want with it but your task is to use it," the doctor threw the ball to Laura who caught it with a big smile, "both of you!" he said again and looked at Arizona who nodded.
Arizona took a deep breath and stood up. She still fell down from time to time and had to walk slowly. Nothing in comparison to Laura, who had her new prosthesis and ran around like a champ. Sometimes Arizona forgot that Laura was an amputee too. She never used the word amputee anyways, both of them hated it.

"How can you be so fast?" Arizona smiled happily when the two of them were finally outside. She was relieved that she was wearing long pants, so that no one could see her prosthesis. She admired Laura who loved to wear skirts and short pants and was used to people watching.
"What do we want to play with the ball? What do you like?" Laura put her long black hair into a ponytail.
"Do you really have black hair?" Arizona suddenly asked when she looked down at the little girl.
"Huh?" Laura was not expecting such a question to her answer.
"You have the most amazing blue eyes and I can see some blonde hair right there," Arizona touched Laura's head.
"Then I have to color it again," Laura answered honestly and left Arizona speechless.
"You are seven. You shouldn't color your hair. I bet you look beautiful as a blonde," Arizona took the ball out of Laura's hand and held it up, "Are you even listening to me?"
"No, because I want to play!" Laura laughed and tried to climb up on Arizona to get the ball. Arizona immediately lost her balance and together they fell backwards onto the grass. They looked at each other and immediately burst out into laughing. Arizona changed positions and went on top of Laura and tickled her merciless.
"No, stop. Noooooo!" Laura tried to get free and slung her leg around Arizona's waist but the woman was way stronger.
"You know exactly that I'm not good in holding my balance!" Arizona laughed and then put her head onto Laura's chest. She was really happy in this moment.
"Can we play now? How about soccer? I shoot and you have to get it!" Laura asked.
"Okay but we change positions too!" Arizona stood up again and couldn't believe how much energy a little girl could have.
Laura ran around nonstop and shot the ball. The first one almost hit Arizona right into the face. The second one rolled far away besides her, so that Arizona had to walk fast to get it. Luckily she caught the third one, "I caught it. I caught it!" Arizona cheered and threw the ball back to Laura who was talking to bigger children now.
"Well, well, well, isn't that robot girl playing all alone?" A much bigger girl, around ten came to Laura and looked down at her with her four friends.
"I'm not alone," Laura said shyly and looked to the ground.
"Oh, you're here with the robot woman. The one you play mommy with. But guess what she isn't your mommy, poor little robot girl!"
At first Arizona thought that the kids were Laura's friends but then she could see how scared Laura looked. She knew she had to intervene when the girl took Laura's ball. Of course the older kids saw that Arizona was coming towards them and just pushed Laura backwards and then ran away. Arizona immediately ran a little to Laura and then looked down. "Did they hurt you? And who were these bullies?"
Laura didn't say anything and didn't even take Arizona's hand into hers, "Can we go now?"
Arizona looked confused at her watch, "But honey, we still have 45 minutes. Don't you want to play another game? I'd love to although you know now that I'm pretty clumsy when it comes to balls!"
"I want to go!" Laura whined and Arizona nodded.
"Okay, but I guess the doctor will be mad at us if we come home now. How about we just sit down and watch the…the clouds? I can tell you awesome stories about them!" Arizona said and then saw something she had never seen in Laura, the girl who always smiled. Her lip started quivering and tears appeared in Laura's eyes.
"I want to go home, to mommy and daddy and not to the doctor!" Laura cried and then ran away.

"Shit. Laaaauuuura?" Arizona was walking around for half an hour now and tried to find Laura. But the girl was fast, too fast for her. Arizona didn't know what to do and tried to call Callie but her shift had just started. Arizona didn't even realize how fast she was on her own two feet. Then she saw Alex and ran to him.
"Alex, you have to help me," Arizona said helpless. "Oh hello!" Arizona looked at the beautiful woman besides Alex.
"I'm kind of in the middle of a date, Robbins. Can't help," Alex whispered.
Arizona nodded and went through her hair in despair, "Laaaura. Please come out!"
Alex immediately turned around and looked at his mentee, "What did you just say?"
"Nothing," Arizona answered confused, "I'm looking for a little girl called Laura. She has…"
"blonde hair…well she colored it black and amazingly blue eyes." Alex ended Arizona's sentence.
"Yes, how do you know?" Arizona asked perplexed.
"This date is over. Sorry!" Alex just said to the woman who rolled her eyes and went away. "How do you know her?"
"She does physiotherapy with me every day and we played soccer but then bigger kids came and bullied her."
"And you didn't tell them to stop?" Alex asked shocked and looked madly at Arizona.
"Of course I did, Karev. But they ran away and I can't run," Arizona continued looking around. "How do you know her?"
"She's my Laura!" Alex just said and then took Arizona by the elbow, "I know where she is, c'mon!"
They walked a while and ended at a huge tree and heard the sobbing. Alex immediately climbed up and looked at the girl with a soft smile, "Bad day, huh?"
Laura just nodded and slung her arms around Alex. He went behind her and pulled her onto his lap while he tried to be careful not to fall down with her. They were very high but luckily this tree had big branches. "I'll show you more tricks how to defend yourself from that stupid Linda!" Alex whispered and held her tightly to his chest while she leaned her head on his shoulder.
"Dr. Robbins! Don't!" Alex screamed when he saw how Arizona tried to get up too.
"It's okay, I can do this!" Arizona answered but lost her balance and fell down the tree, right onto her back.
"Are you hurt?" Alex and Laura looked down in shock.
"Yes! I lost my leg," Arizona said and shocked Alex and Laura for a second until she burst out into laughing. Alex laughed loudly too and although Laura didn't understand why they were laughing that much, she had to join.
"We're coming down!" Alex said and both of them climbed down the tree. He held out a hand and helped his mentee up.
"Are you okay sweetheart? I was worried sick!" Arizona wiped Laura's tears with her thumbs.
Laura nodded and started to run after Alex who took the ball and threw it far away. "Dr. Robbins, move your hurt ass!"
Arizona looked shocked at Alex but then rolled her eyes and followed Laura and Alex. They had a great day.

"My back is killing me!" Arizona whined when she was home again and waited for Callie.
"Sorry, I had to do an emergency operation," Callie apologized when she came home. She gave Arizona a tight hug but could tell that her wife was in pain. "What is it?" she looked extremely alerted at her.
"Don't worry, I just fell off a tree and Alex tackled me a few times!" Arizona laughed loudly when Callie looked like she would faint in a minute.
"A…a what? YOU FELL OFF A TREE? AND ALEX TACKLED YOU?"
"Calm down, Callie. Laura and I had the task to play with a ball outside and I chased her when she ran away because bigger kids were bullying her. Well and she climbed up a tree and I tried to do too but clumsy me…I fell down! And Alex had helped me looking for her and after that we played football and stupid Karev just tackled me and thought this would be funny!"
"Are you hurt?" Callie looked her up and down.
"No! And you know that I also fell off trees when I still had my leg. Don't worry."

"Arizona Robbins. You get down now!" Callie looked up the tree and couldn't believe that her date actually had climbed up that high.
"Stop pouting and come up, Calliope. It's wonderful up here. You can see all the stars and you're one step closer to heaven!"
"I don't need to be one step closer to heaven. I want to be close to you," Callie whined.
"Well, then you have to climb up because I'm not coming down," Arizona laughed when Callie pouted even more but then climbed up too. "God, that's high!"
"Look at this. Isn't it beautiful?" Arizona pointed at the stars and Callie widened her eyes. It was extremely beautiful.
"It is but you know what is even more beautiful?" Callie looked deeply into Arizona's eyes.
"I think I know what you mean," Arizona flirted and pulled Callie towards her and kissed her. Then she pulled back and just looked into Callie's eyes, "Let's make love here!"
Callie burst out into laughing and shook her head, "Sweetheart, as appealing that may sound, I don't think that making love in a tree up high is a good idea."
"It is, we can…" suddenly Arizona lost her footing. Callie wanted to catch her but in an instant she fell down the whole tree and landed with a loud sound on the ground.
"OH MY GOD!" Callie screamed and tried to get down, "Arizona, Arizona, are you okay?"

"I had to carry you home the whole way. You could've broken your leg!" Callie smirked and looked at Arizona's back. It had some bruises but nothing more.
"Well, on the bright side, I can only break one leg from now on!" Arizona smiled and Callie shook her head. She had to get used to her wife's joking about her lost leg.

"I feel like crap!" Arizona whined while she rested on Callie's back.
"You'll get a sponge bath in a second! The special Callie sponge bath!" Callie smiled and opened the door to her apartment.
A minute later both of them were lying in the tube. Arizona was in front of Callie and had her eyes closed, "This is so good!" she moaned when Callie massaged her whole body.
"I know but that's definitely not the end!" Callie went in between Arizona's legs and teased her.
"Don't tease me," Arizona whined and looked up with her head. Callie looked down and started to kiss her while her hand finally stayed in between Arizona's legs and did his magic. Arizona couldn't believe how lucky she was. She slung her arm back around Callie's neck and continued french kissing her while Callie's other hand played with her nipple.
"Don't close your eyes!" Callie said when Arizona's orgasm hit her. "This is good, baby!" Callie whispered when Arizona started to scream.
They stayed in the tube for a long while and just enjoyed each other's presence.
