When Arizona woke up she found Amelia looking at her, smiling. "Okay, since when are you awake?" Arizona asked, with sleepy eyes and her voice almost to a whisper.

"Not long. But I didn't want to wake you up, so I figured I'd watch you sleep," said Amelia, kissing Arizona shortly.

"Creepy…"

"Maybe, but you're adorable when you sleep, so I win," Amelia replied.

"I don't want to go to work tomorrow," said Arizona in a child's voice, as she cuddled in Amelia's arms.

"Me neither, but that's tomorrow. Today we're still free and we'll spend the day together, just like yesterday," Amelia spoke as she took a strand of the blonde hair and played with it.

Arizona nodded, and asked after a while, "Aren't you scared for tomorrow?"

"A bit, but we're always scared of a tomorrow. We think so much of it, how we'll act and say or do, that we often forget to live the day. I try to live the day," said Amelia in a calm voice. It helped calm Arizona too, as it always did. "We never know what will hit us. So it's better to live the day."

"I think I'm more worried than you are," stated Arizona, laughing. Amelia laughed too, but she turned Arizona's face to hers and said softly, "You don't have to worry about me. I'll be fine."

"Are you sure? He's another person you loved and lost. I don't want you to-"

"He is. But this way, I was able to see you. And I'm so glad I saw you. Because now I'm here, with you."

Arizona kissed Amelia as she'd always wanted to and then just for being sure, she told her, "No matter how this goes, don't let it take you down. I won't let you. Because you're strong and you can handle it," Arizona said with her voice starting to grow stronger and stronger.

"I won't. I promise," Amelia said.

"Good. Now, I have to go wake Sofia. And take a shower. And buy groceries and cook," said Arizona as she got up.

"That's a loaded program," said Amelia. "Can I help you with something?"

"Uhm, no, I got this. I just have to, uhm-"

"Okay, listen. You go take a shower. I'll wake Sofia if it's alright with you. We'll have breakfast and then we'll go shopping, all of us. And then I'll help you cook," Amelia offered, getting out of the bed.

"You're sure you don't want to do literally anything else today? It's your free day."

"And I'll spend it with you. Complain about it?"

"Not at all," said Arizona as she approached her. She pulled her closer and kissed her. She could feel Amelia forming a smile as they kissed. The kiss got heated up as Arizona added her tongue to it, but Amelia parted, saying, "I have to go wake Sofia. But we'll continue this tonight."

"But there's a lot until tonight," cried Arizona.

"That's what it will make it even better. The anticipation. The desire," said Amelia.

"I hate you," said Arizona, joking.

"But I'm right," she shot back and Arizona growled. As she tended to go, Amelia gripped her hand tighter. "Hey, Arizona, I've been meaning to ask you. What does this make us?"

"What do you want this to be?" Arizona asked kindly.

"I don't know. I don't like to label things," she said.

"Then, a couple? Lovers?"

"A couple it is," Amelia said, kissing her firmly.

In 5 minutes she was ready to go have breakfast. From her bedroom she could hear Amelia and Sofia laughing and talking and she just wanted to take that image in. She opened the door quietly and neither Amelia, nor Sofia heard it open. Amelia was making pancakes and she was quite good at it, Arizona admitted. Is there anything this woman can't do, she asked herself. Sofia really liked Amelia and Arizona was happy and relieved about it. It's true that Sofia liked many people; she liked Penny too.

"You gonna come out here?" Amelia asked Arizona, once she noticed her.

"Yes, I was just thinking," she replied. "Good morning, Sof," she said, kissing her daughter on her head.

"Thinking about what?" asked Sofia.

"About how happy I am," her mother told her. She smiled to both of them.

"Mommy, guess what Amelia made me for breakfast," said the kid excitedly.

"I'm guessing pancakes, maybe?" she asked. Sofia nodded and took another bite.

"How are they?" Amelia asked.

"They are the best pancakes I've ever had!"

"Oh, is that so?" Arizona asked, laughing. Amelia mouthed a 'sorry' and right then and there, Arizona wanted to kiss her. So she sat down next to Sofia to explain what was going on between her mother and Amelia.

"Sof, Amelia and I are a couple," she started. Amelia's eyes widened in surprise, as she didn't expect Arizona to tell her child just yet.

"Like you and Mama were?"

"Yes, exactly like that." She knew Sofia would understand, since she'd seen her two mothers together. This notion had been explained to her and even back when she was smaller, she understood why she had two moms and not one mom and one dad. Well, it was even more complicated because she basically had two moms and one dad. But she managed to get the point behind the complicated situation.

"So that means you won't be cold at night anymore?" the kid asked innocently.

"That's right. You are one clever girl," said Arizona smiling.

"It also means Amy will be living with us and making us pancakes every Sunday morning?"

"Only if she wants to," Arizona answered. She turned to Amelia who was smiling as she watched the mother and daughter talking. "Do you want to be part of our family? And make us pancakes every Sunday morning?"

Amelia sat down next to Sofia and replied with a happy tone, "It would be the best decision I've ever made," she replied. Sofia hugged her tight and Arizona kissed her shortly.

After breakfast, Amelia's phone started ringing. It was Meredith. She picked up quite hesitantly. "Meredith, hi." Arizona was able to hear bits of their conversation.

"No, I'm okay. I'm at Arizona's."

…

"I didn't drink anything."

…

"No, no drugs."

…

"Listen, I'm very well where I am. You don't need to worry-"

…

"Then you'll have to come over and talk to both of us."

…

"Fine, this afternoon. Okay, bye."

Arizona was watching her, not knowing what to take from this conversation. "Is everything okay?"

"She's coming this afternoon to talk to us. About us."

"Oh. Okay, we can handle that," Arizona said trying to stay positive.

In 10 minutes they heard the bell ring and Arizona started to get anxious.

"Meredith, come in," she said as she welcomed her friend in her home. "Where are the kids?"

"They're at home, with Alex and Maggie."

Arizona nodded and they walked in the kitchen. "So, care to tell me what's happening?" said Meredith sitting down at the table. Amelia and Arizona were sitting opposite her, next to each other.

"Okay, I hope you're not gonna interrogate us cause it's not your place to do that," Amelia started.

"Amelia, I just want to know what happened from your point of view. I want to understand," said Meredith.

"I came to sleep here after I find out about Owen. Arizona was very kind and understanding about it," Amelia said. Under the table she was squeezing Arizona's hand tightly. "I needed some time to process everything."

"Since you're home wasn't your home anymore," said Meredith.

"Meredith, don't make me the bad guy because I'm definitely not the one," said Amelia starting to raise her tone.

"Hey. Calm," said Arizona, speaking in a whisper.

"Sorry," Amelia mumbled. "But you don't get to blame me because I didn't feel like home there, or in his presence as I used to. He cheated on me! I didn't ask for it, Meredith," she said, as a few tears started to gather in her eyes.

"I know and I'm sorry it happened this way. You know Cristina it's the kind of a person that-"

"No, I actually don't, because I never really got to meet her as you both did. Everyone keeps telling me she wouldn't do such thing, but she did," Amelia spoke in a calmer voice than before, but still angry. "I'm not saying that she ruined this marriage because it wasn't working in the first place. She just gave us the push towards the finish line. We would've gotten to the finish line anyway, but maybe it would've been in a better way." Tears rolled down her cheek. "It's over, Meredith. It's over, so I don't want to hear a word when I tell you this: I'm in love with Arizona. And so is she and we're very happy together."

"Since when did you start having feelings for Arizona?" asked Meredith. She was a master already at keeping a straight face when she received big news such as this one.

"Oh, you don't have to worry about me being a cheater. I never was and I never will be."

"When did you start having feelings for Arizona?" Meredith said, putting an accent on every word, raising her voice ever so slightly. She might've seemed mad, but deep down she cared for both Owen and Amelia. Yes, she didn't like Amelia that much, but she was family. And she never wished for something like this to happen to her.

"The day Cristina arrived in town. That day Arizona had lost our patient and I found her crying in an on-call room. I stayed with her until she was better and that's when it happened." Meredith nodded, understanding. "Meredith, I have the right to be loved and happy. I have the right to be with Arizona if I feel something for her and we have the right to be together just as Cristina and Owen do."

"I know. Alright, I just wanted to know you're okay," Meredith said, standing up. She cared despite the tone she used or the looks she gave them. She cared.

"Thank you, Meredith," said Arizona smiling.

"See you tomorrow at work," she said, smiling to both.

Once she left, Arizona locked the door and leaned on it. Amelia smiled and went to hug her lover from behind, pulling her in her arms. "See? I told you it wasn't going to be bad," said Amelia as she heard Arizona started sniffing. "Oh, don't start crying. Why are you crying?" she asked her as she looked in her stunning blue eyes.

"It's nothing. I have authority issues," Arizona said.

"You know Meredith's not your superior, right?"

"I know, but she can be very serious and it's scary sometimes," she added. Amelia laughed slightly. "I just want to be with you without complications."

"Hey, we are together," Amelia said as she held Arizona's face in her hands. "And I don't care if anyone disagrees. I love you and I want to be with you. That's what matters."

After Arizona put Sofia to sleep, she closed the door to the bedroom. Amelia was lying on the bed, waiting for her. Arizona climbed in the bed and after removing her prosthetic, Amelia pulled her close to her. She kissed her hard, adding her tongue to it.

"So should we continue what we started?" asked Amelia with a smirk. In response, Arizona flipped her over so that now she was on top. She drove her kisses from her jawline to her neck, stopping to pay attention to it and from her collarbones to her stomach. She slipped her hand under her pajama top, taking it off. Both of them were breathing heavily, but Arizona didn't quit what she started. She kissed and bit Amelia's lips until they were bruised. She moved up to her ear, biting it and exhaling a long held breath in it. Amelia moaned but she turned her over, so that she was on top again. She also took Arizona's shirt off and her hand drifted down to her thighs, but Arizona stopped her, saying, "Maybe we shouldn't. Not yet. Not while Sofia's still home."

"You're right," she said, kissing her again. "Plus, the longer we wait, the better it will be, right?"

"The anticipation," Arizona said as they continued kissing.
