A/N I apologise for the ridiculously long delay. I had exams, coursework, work and writer's block. Plus I had to re-read my own story because that's how long it's been.

Arizona's looming figure stood in the doorway and she raised a finger to accusatorially point at Teddy. "You had sex with Callie?!" Teddy blinked. "Well that was not at all what I was expecting."

Arizona and Teddy sat in silence. It had been about twenty minutes and twice as many apologies since Arizona had burst through the door of Teddy's bedroom in a jealous rage. Teddy had spent all of them trying to get her best friend to stop screaming and return her voice to a normal volume. Suddenly it seemed like all the fight had just drained out of Arizona and she slumped down on the bed next to the other blonde with her head in her hands. Teddy cautiously reached out a hand and placed it on Arizona's back as a timid gesture of an attempt at comfort.

"Teddy she thinks I'm fine." Arizona finally spoke and broke the silence, sounding completely and utterly defeated. "She thinks I'm fine with it because that's exactly how I acted. I'm not okay. I'm really not okay!" Arizona wrung her hands together and Teddy was struck with the revelation that in all their many years as best friends, she had never once seen Arizona this upset. It was an eye-opening and strangely frightening realisation, Teddy noted. She listened as her friend continued, "I am so not okay with Callie sleeping with you, or with anyone else for that matter. But I have no right to be. Not really."

Teddy was struggling to tidy up all of the jumbled thoughts in her head, trying to form a response when she was saved by the bell. Her phone startled them both by ringing and the two girls grimaced at the irony when Teddy's ringtone (Pharrell's 'Happy') started to play at full volume.

"Aren't you going to get that?" Arizona asked, her voice a little croaky from all the yelling and crying.

"It's just April. She'll ring back."

Arizona let the phone ring for another few seconds before speaking up again. "Teddy, it's annoying."

"Fine I'll answer it. Hello?" Teddy finally answered the phone. Her irritation was implicit in her tone of voice, but clearly not to April as the red-head started to chirp down the phone, asking questions about the specifics of the lab that they had completed a few days earlier. Teddy interrupted her mid-sentence with an abrupt "April I'm busy right now do you mind if I call you back," said through gritted teeth. Though her reply was phrased as a question, there was no intonation in Teddy's voice that implied she was actually asking anything.

"Sure, no problem," April replied, still ignorant of Teddy's annoyance. "I had a great night on Thursday by the way, so thank you. And tell Callie thanks too when you see her."

Teddy's head snapped up and she started to actually pay attention to what the red-head was saying. "What? April, what are you talking about?"

"Thursday night. Well, early Friday morning really. I'm sorry I had to leave before you guys woke up but I had an early lecture and you two looked so peaceful. I have Callie's dress by the way, I grabbed it on the way out, thinking it was my coat, which I think I must have left at hers."

Teddy sat in silence trying to think of something to say, a million possible scenarios and a zillion different questions running through her head. "So…" she started, deciding to play it safe, "we had a good night?" At this point Arizona had copped on to the fact that the conversation was no longer school related. Teddy glanced over at her and, seeing the expression on her face, took the phone away from her ear and pressed the loudspeaker button.

April's shrill voice came through the phone, "yeah it was really good! I feel like me, you and Callie have all really bonded now."

Arizona grimaced at the sound of April's voice, reached over and turned the volume down a couple of notches, rubbing her ears in discomfort. Teddy looked at Arizona again with a face that conveyed a mixture of confusion and apprehension. "Bonded?" Teddy directed the question to April but never took her eyes off Arizona. "Bonded in what way exactly?" she continued, somewhat afraid of the answer.

April was completely oblivious to the tension at the other end of the line, "I just feel like we have like, a connection now, you know? I mean, we sat up until almost 5am talking. Don't you think so? I think it's brought us closer."

"Uh, yeah April, totally." Teddy replied, memories from that night still evading her. "Is that all we did? Talked?" she asked, sounding the words out slowly, cautiously.

"Well, we drank too obviously. And sang. And then we went to bed. It was so much fun!"

Teddy and Arizona simultaneously let out a sigh of relief. Arizona looked over at Teddy, a grin spreading over her face at her best friend's obvious delight and she mouthed 'hang up' at her. Teddy understood the mimed words and tried to wrap up the conversation, "listen April, I really have to go here, but yeah, that night was great, really great, we should do it again sometime. Yeah. Uh-huh. Okay. Bye. Bye. Yeah. Bye-bye. Goodbye." She pressed the end call button, cutting the girl off mid-sentence. "Wow she really cannot shut…" Teddy's words were cut off as Arizona enveloped her in a bear hug.

"I knew you really wouldn't do that to me Teds," she said, clasping her tightly in her arms, "you love me too much."

"Apology accepted, Z. But I won't be around to love you much longer if you don't let me go." Arizona pulled back a little to look at her friend, perplexed. "Can't breathe," Teddy clarified.

"Oh." Arizona promptly let go. "Sorry," she said with a sheepish smile on her face.

"Wait." Teddy said, with the ghost of a smile on her face. "Are you saying sorry for depriving me of oxygen or for yelling at me for twenty minutes?"

Arizona looked down, embarrassed, "sorry for both?" she said, looking back at Teddy, a questioning tone in her voice and an innocent look on her face, unable to keep a smile from creeping up at the corners of her mouth.

"Yeah you should be," Teddy replied, grinning from ear to ear and pulling Arizona back into a hug. Not even ten seconds had passed before Teddy had a stroke of realisation and her face darkened. She let go of her friend, somewhat reluctantly, "Arizona I hate to ruin the happy mood but I was just thinking…" Teddy trailed off, torn between revelling in Arizona's joy and facing reality.

"What, Teddy?" Arizona asked, with a wary look on her face.

"Well…" Teddy started, a little unsure of how she should phrase this.

"Teddy come on, just say whatever it is that's eating at you," Arizona said, a slightly pained expression on her face.

Teddy took a deep breath. "Why would Callie tell you that we had sex when we didn't?" She looked into Arizona's eyes. "Why would she lie?"

Arizona froze. "I don't'…" Teddy could almost hear her brain trying to process, "I don't... know. I have no idea." Arizona scrunched up her face, trying to remember her conversation with Callie. "She sounded very convinced of herself. I don't think she lied intentionally." Her eyebrows sprung up, "maybe she thinks that you guys actually slept together."

"But," Teddy began, "why would she think that?"

Teddy and Arizona looked at each other with matching expressions of confusion and worry; a strange combination.

They sat like that for a short while until they heard a knock at the door which made them both release breaths they didn't know they were holding.

"I'll get it." Teddy said, standing up.

"No, I'm coming too." Arizona followed her to the door.

Teddy's jaw dropped and Arizona gasped when they saw the person on the other side of the threshold. The newcomer spoke.

"You guys really need to figure out what the hell happened on Thursday night."
