The ride to the hotel was quiet. Callie concentrated on the road as her hand ran small circles over Arizona's over the console. Daniela and Aria sat in the back watching the couple, smiling. They could truly see how happy Callie was. Something neither of them had seen in so long. Callie saw Arizona yawn from the corner of her eye, her eyes dropping as she leaned against the window. She reached her hand up and caressed her cheek. Arizona lifted her hand and held it against her cheek as she smiled. She turned her head, her crystal blue eyes looking at Callie.

"Baby, you should rest. We'll be at the hotel soon. Once we're there you can nap until dinner." Callie said, as she took a quick glance at Arizona.

"That would be rude, Calliope. Your mother and sister are here." she protested, looking back to Daniela and Aria. She smiled sweetly at them and received smiles in return. Daniela leaned up from her seat in the car, and patted Arizona's shoulder.

"Sweetheart, it's only rude if you are trying to avoid conversation. But you're pregnant and very close to delivery. You need your rest. Now you close your eyes and just sleep, don't worry about us," she said softly. Arizona placed her hand on top of Daniela's and looked over her shoulder.

"Thank you, Mrs. Torres." she said, with a smile. She leaned her head against the window, her eyes closing. Callie placed her hand on Arizona's thigh and sighed. Soon she could hear Arizona's light snoring and she chuckled a bit.

"Calliope, tell us how you met Arizona?" her mother asked, breaking the silence in the car. Callie looked up at her mom through the rear view and smiled.

"It's funny actually. Arizona had followed me into a bathroom at the bar where the doctors go to unwind after work. I was crying at the sink and she gave me this speech about people talking at the hospital and that people liked me and some really liked me. I didn't believe her and she kissed me. It was a lot to get us here but I'm happy than I've ever been in my life, Mom. She's my everything." she said, looking over at Arizona then back up at her mom. Daniela smiled sweetly at her daughter.

"I can see that, Calliope. You look incredibly happy. I can see how much you love her just by the way you look at her. You're eyes sparkle when you say her name. I'm happy for you, honey. I just wish your father wasn't so stubborn and would put his blinders down to see."

"Mom, it's ok. I'm upset that he won't be here to see his granddaughter. She may not biologically be his granddaughter, but we have the papers in the works that as soon as she's born she will legally be a Torres. I hope that one day he will come around, that's all I can hope for. I can't let Dad's distaste of my family ruin my happiness. Not when my daughter is so close to being here." She felt Arizona stir and then rubbed her belly.

"Go back to sleep, sweetie. We're almost to the hotel," she said softly. Arizona sat up in her chair and then looked over at Callie then to the floor.

"Callie?

"Yeah, baby?"

"Do you have the hospital still programmed into that thing?" she asked, pointing to the GPS mounted on the dash board.

"Yeah, why?" she asked, looking over to her briefly.

"We should detour the hotel and go there. My water just broke," she said slightly panicked. Callie sharply pulled the car to the side of the road and stepped on her brake.

"What?! Are you sure?!" she asked her voice reaching pitches she never knew existed.

"Calliope, I sure as hell didn't piss myself. My water broke. So I suggest you get us to the hospital unless you really want Emilie to be born on the side of the road."

"Right." she said then pulled back into traffic. "Crap! What about mom and Aria?"

"Don't you worry about us. You just get her to the hospital. Aria and I can stay there," her mother said as Callie sped down the road to the hospital. Arizona placed her hand over top of Callie's on the wheel.

"I know you're nervous or whatever, but I'd actually like to meet our daughter before we're dead. Mind slowing down?" she asked, then gave her hand a gentle squeeze. Callie looked over at her briefly.

"Sorry, baby. I am nervous. Nervous as hell."

"Calliope! Language!"

"Sorry, Mom. But I'm also scared. What if we're not ready?"

"Callie, we're ready. We've been ready for months now. You're going to be an amazing mother," she said, leaning over to kiss her. Callie smiled but her smile was short lived as Arizona cried out as a contraction ripped through her abdomen.

"Dear god! I've changed my mind about no drugs! Get me there now and get me the damn epidural!" she screamed. Callie pressed on the gas pedal and sped down the road.

"Callie! You're going to miss the exit!" Arizona screamed, pointing to her right. Callie whipped the car over the lane and made it the exit just in time. Callie looked behind her and thanked all whatever gods there were that there wasn't a cop and she didn't cause an accident.

"I'm going to need you to put in the information, Ari. I can't while I'm driving." she said, keeping her eyes on the road. Arizona nodded and leaned over as best she could and punched in the needed information to the hospital and let the GPS do the rest of the work. The GPS took them straight to the parking lot of Seattle Grace. Callie did one step further and pulled into the ambulance bay.

"You can't park here?!" a young intern yelled as he saw the car stop. Callie got out and looked at him. She gave him one of her patent stares.

"I... I'm sorry Dr. Torres. I didn't know it was you. Can I help you?" he asked.

"Get me a damn wheelchair and page anyone on call in OB. My wife is in labor," she yelled and rushed to Arizona's side of the car and helped her from the car.

"Callie, you didn't have to scare the poor kid," she said as she gripped Callie's hands to get out.

"He was being an idiot and I get more done when the interns are scared of me. They won't even bat an eyelash when I tell them to do anything," she said just at the intern practically ran a wheelchair out the door. Halfway to them he tripped over his own feet and hit the ground. The chair continued to move, barreling toward the back end of Callie's car.

"Shit!" Callie screamed. She let go of Arizona's hands, and ran to catch the chair before it hit. Unfortunately, the chair was faster than her and crashed into her car, denting the frame and scratching the bright red paint. Callie ran to the end of the car and ran her hand over the wound of her car.

"Oh my god! My car!" she screamed. Arizona rolled her eyes and gripped the side of the opened door as she contracted.

"Hello! Calliope, kind of having a baby here!" she yelled at her as she doubled over, screaming.

"Oh, Baby! I'm sorry!" she said and grabbed the chair. She wheeled it over to her and locked it before helping her into the chair. "God, baby I'm so sorry."

"It's ok. Just get me upstairs, I want drugs and I want them now."

Callie pushed her to the entrance and through the doors. As they entered the pit, they were greeted by the doctor. "Hey, we've got a room ready for you. So we're going to take you straight upstairs and we'll get everything in order when we get up there. Do you still want to forgo the epidural?" he asked as he took over wheeling the chair for Callie. Callie walked over and took Arizona's hand in her own. She winced a bit as Arizona squeezed it.

"No, I want the drugs." Arizona said quickly. He nodded and quickly pushed her to the nearest elevator. Callie pointed her mother and sister in the direction of the waiting room and the number of the hotel.

"Please call and cancel the reservation for dinner tonight. If you want to go there and wait you're more than welcome. Here are the keys to my car. Take it." she said, tossing the keys to her sister. "I'll keep you guys updated. I promise. Thank you for coming mom."

"No thanks necessary . You're my daughter and I love you. Now go, she needs you." she said and hugged her daughter before pushing her into the elevator. Callie smiled gratefully at her and took Arizona's hand as the doors closed.
