Several hours passed since Amelia entered the OR. She was analyzing ways to go around the tumor and take it out. Edwards had scrubbed in with her. She started working her way to the tumor, but Arizona was still uncertain if she had a definite plan of saving the man. Up in the gallery, Alex joined Arizona.

"How come you're here this late?" Arizona asked him.

"I'm on-call. You?" Alex asked seeing she wasn't in her scrubs.

"I came rushing in with Amelia when Bailey paged her," she explained.

"You know, you could be here all night if you want to watch the surgery."

"I know. I'm also here for her. She doesn't need me to watch her, but as long as I can keep my eyes open, I'm staying here," she said watching the neurosurgeon's movements.

"That's nice of you," Alex said, patting her shoulder.

"Well, I love her," Arizona said, not taking her eyes off the surgery, but also not realizing how she just laid her feelings out.

"You do?" This came as a surprise to Alex, obviously.

"I do," she said, smiling and turning to Alex. "I just need to find a way to tell her."

"Well, as long as you're certain about it, it doesn't matter how or where you'll tell her. Just, you know, don't do it while she's poking someone's brain," Alex joked.

"Right, I figured," she laughed.

Little after the conversation they remained quiet and Bailey came to see the surgery.

"Where is she?" the Chief asked, looking down to the surgery.

"I think she's getting ready to take it out soon," Arizona said.

"Robbins you're still here? Go get some sleep," Bailey said, sitting next to her.

"I'm good right here."

"It's past midnight. You have to work later today."

"I'm okay, I'll take an hour nap in an on-call room later," she said with a relaxed tone. "How much do you estimate she has left?"

"About two more hours if there are no complications," Miranda answered. As if the universe started laughing at Bailey's statement, the patent started coding. "Never mind that," Bailey added.

"Doctor, he's crashing," Bokhee said.

"Give me one minute," Amelia said.

"Dr. Shepherd, he doesn't have one," Edwards said. "Bring the paddles," she ordered to a nurse.

"I said one minute," Amelia insisted.

"Charge to 220," Edwards continued.

"Hold the shocks!" Amelia's voice was loud, yet focused.

"Dr. Shepherd," Edwards emphasized.

Amelia moved as quick as she could, but it still took a whole important minute for her to finish. "Okay, go."

"Clear," Edwards announced. Luckily, his heartbeat came back to normal.

"Okay, let's keep this going," Amelia said retaking her place.

"I'm still betting on two hours," said Bailey, as she stepped out of the gallery.

As Bailey predicted, it took about two more hours and the patient was in the ICU. He was stable, tumor free. The only thing left was to see if he had any function working: vision, speech and hearing. After scrubbing out, Amelia met Arizona in the hall and stepped in an on-call room to sleep the couple of hours left before their work day really began. They cuddled in a bed and dozed off immediately, both of them.

In exactly three hours Arizona's pager went off. The last thing she wanted to do now was to leave Amelia's warm and safe arms, but every time her pager beeped meant a kid or a mother was dying and she wouldn't let that happen. That thought sort of motivated her, so she got up. Amelia didn't even flinch, she was that tired. She gave her a small kiss on her cheek and went to her emergency. As soon as she reached Emily Jackson's room, the patient with the GSW to the shoulder, Wilson informed her on the problem.

"I took her to CT earlier today and the scans showed a triple A," Jo said.

"The wall of the aorta is way too thin," Arizona said to herself more than to Jo. "It could burst at any time, we have to go now."

Wilson booked an OR and prepped the patient. Fortunately, they got in time and saved the girl. After the procedure, Arizona was checking the surgical board and seeing neither she, nor Amelia had many surgeries for today, she went to look for her. First thing that jumped into her mind was the attending's lounge, but she wasn't there. Remembering the nap they had earlier, she went to that on-call room again. When they walked into it hours ago, they were so sleepy Arizona didn't realize it was the on-call room where Amelia first had found her crying. To her surprise, Amelia was still there, sleeping. She closed the door and sat down next to her. She knew she had surgery later, so she figured she was better to wake her than the pager.

"Amy," Arizona said in her quiet, yet seductive voice.

Amelia started to open her eyes and she smiled when she saw Arizona. "I love it when you call me like that," she said, still sleepy.

"So do I. Now, I'm sorry to say this, but you have to wake up. You'll have surgery soon."

"Okay, thanks," Amelia said, as she got up.

"By the way, I checked and today we get out early. I thought we could go home and, you know," said Arizona giving her a look. Amelia knew exactly what she was talking about.

"Oh, right," Amelia said. "So it's tonight."

"It's tonight," Arizona said leaning in for a kiss. Amelia kissed her harder, pulling her closer. "Hey, I said tonight, not now," she laughed.

Amelia growled and got up to stretch. "Fine, but don't complain when I'll be teasing you cause you teased me all the time."

"Oh, so that's how we're playing. Very well," Arizona said, going towards the door. "See you later, Dr. Shepherd." Arizona smiled and left the room.

As planned, they both managed to get off work around 6 in the afternoon. Once they got home, Arizona went in the bedroom to change her clothes. She didn't quite get to do that, as Amelia suddenly pulled her in and started to kiss her fiercely. As she pushed her down on the mattress, she added her tongue to it, and Arizona matched her moves. She took Arizona's top off, leaving her in a black laced bra. She took that off too, leaving the blonde with only her jeans left. Amelia kissed her neck, and drifted down to her breasts, without her mouth leaving Arizona's soft skin. She took her pants and prosthetic off and as she did, she could feel the blonde's nails grazing her hands. When her mouth found Arizona's again, her hand drifted down to Arizona's thighs. As she bit the other woman's earlobe, she began teasing her. At first she circled Arizona's center, nibbling at her breasts.

"Amelia," Arizona tried to say, but failed. She was breathing heavily and Amelia couldn't enjoy it more.

"What?" she asked in her low, hoarse voice which drove Arizona crazy.

"Please," was the only thing she was able to say. But Amelia wasn't done with her teasing. Only then she began pushing her finger inside Arizona's center. Her pace was slow, as if Arizona had done something really terrible to get this kind of treatment. She added a second finger, enhancing her velocity. Soon enough Arizona matched Amelia's thrusts, running her hand in Amelia's hair and pulling it. Amelia knew Arizona was close so she went faster and faster until Arizona was finally over the edge. Amelia crashed next to Arizona, both of them breathing heavily.

"You're surprisingly good," said Arizona, turning to her. "Let me see if I can top that," she added, taking Amelia's pants off.

After the adrenaline has passed, Arizona was lying next to Amelia, smiling to her lover.

"What?" Amelia asked.

"You're gorgeous," Arizona said. Her next words almost came naturally, but she had to stop for a moment before saying them. Her expression went serious for a bit, just until she could confess. "And I love you," she added in a soft voice. She was scared to say it. She was scared of her reaction, but she loved her and she wanted her to know. This wasn't rushing anymore. This was her confessing to the woman she admired and loved a lot.

Amelia looked into her blue eyes, in the eyes she can get lost so easily, and said, "I'm glad I can say the same thing."

"What?" Arizona asked, more to be sure that Amelia actually said it.

"You're stunning," Amelia said. "And I love you," she continued. Her face wasn't as grave as Arizona's was.

"You really do?" Arizona asked innocently.

"I really do," Amelia said, smiling kindly. She kissed her softly and she could feel Arizona smiling against her lips.

They stayed in bed, without talking, just lying next to each other. Amelia was playing with Arizona's hair when she asked her, ''Do you ever want to have another kid?''

''I don't know,'' she said. ''I think I might. I love Sofia very much and getting to raise her and be there with her was something really special and good. Heartwarming, you know? Getting to see them grow older and become this amazing person.''

''I don't exactly know how it feels. My baby lived for 43 minutes.'' Arizona turned her head to Amelia. ''I didn't get to see him grow up and become an amazing person. I didn't get to watch him tie his own shoelaces or hold a fork by himself or draw.'' Her voice was low, quiet. She was looking down, not in Arizona's eyes that were focused on her. ''I always wanted to have a child and I always waited for the right moment. Except it's never the right moment, you know?'' Arizona nodded. Amelia waited a minute before saying her final words. ''Arizona, I want to have a child with you,'' she said, finally meeting her gaze. "I want a family with you.''

Arizona didn't take her eyes off her. She was in love with Amelia. She wanted something with her too, something big and steady. A family. A home. ''I want a family with you too, Amelia.''

Amelia smiled widely and so did Arizona. They had found each other. They were together and nothing stood in their way. It was just them. "Let's make a baby then,'' said Amelia, kissing her firmly.
