Callie POV

We make a quick drive to my apartment. I'm reminiscing on how we even got to this point.

"Hey, Arizona. If someone told you a few months back that we would be friends, would you believe it?"

"Definitely not. But I'm glad that we sorted everything out."

"Yea, me too" as I exit her car.


Flashback: 10 Months ago

It was my first day at Seattle Grace. Excited isn't even word I could use to describe how I feel. I looked around in awe at the building, fantasizing my career growth here. I felt like I did something right with my life.

I looked at the papers in my hand to see who Chief Webber had scheduled to show me around. It said A. Robbins, 9am.

It's 8:30am, so I'm a bit early. I decided to explore the area and find the surgical board. It took a bit, but I found it. I have no idea how I could miss it, it was huge. I can't believe how big this hospital. There's a tightness in my stomach forming, almost making me doubt my abilities as a surgeon. I brush it off and remind myself that I deserve this.

"Dr. Torres?"

I turn around, and I see a familiar face. I can't pinpoint his name.

"Alex Karev" He said

"Oh!" I remembered. I was a teacher's assistant in his class years ago. "How have you been? You work here?"

"Yep, kept busting my ass and made it into the program. I made it past the first year and here I am"

"That's pretty great. I just got hired here as Head of Ortho" I looked at my watch "Oh I have to get going, I'm supposed to get a quick tour by A. Robbins in a few"

I hear wheels rolling, and I'm suddenly confused. It didnt sound like a gurney or medical equipment, I started looking around.

I hear Alex laugh and say "well there she is"

I'm still confused, until I see a blonde roll up to me in front of the surgical board.

"Hi, I'm Arizona Robbins. You must be Callie Torres"


Present Day

"Callie?"

I realize we are standing in front of my door, and I should hunt down my keys to get in.

"You ok? You seem out of it today"

"Oh I'm fine. Sorry I guess that climb took a lot out of me!"

I managed to open the door and set everything on the counter. "I'll pop open the bottle, go find something for us to watch"

I had a bit of trouble with the damn cork. By the time I managed to get the broken pieces of the corkscrew out, I realized Arizona was standing in front of me giving me an odd look.

"What?"

"What did that cork do to you?"

"Well, it pissed me off, and I thought I'd just tear it to pieces for fun." I finished pouring two glasses of wine and extend one out to her.

She giggled and in return, extended out a movie to me.

"Really? You hate scary movies!" I stare at the cover of Insidious

"I felt like being spontaneous..."

"Haha alright. But I refuse to keep all the lights on later if you get scared!"

"Deal!" she yelled and she leaped into the couch

I put in the DVD and settle in next to her.
