"I just couldn't deal with losing you, I love you too much Arizona." Eliza said getting upset again, unable to stop the tears flowing. Arizona pulled Eliza back into her chest, leaning her back against the bed, she drew lazy patterns on her girlfriends back, soothing her.

"You're not going to lose me. I love you too Eliza." Arizona eventually responded, thinking for a few minutes before saying anything further. "Have you eaten, anything, in the last few days?" She asked after a while. Eliza shook her head against Arizona's chest, going a little pale at the thought of food, even though she knew it would help. "How about I order some pizza and we hang out for a couple of hours?"

"That would be nice." Eliza responded looking at her girlfriend with a small smile.

"Mmmm, nice and necessary." Arizona responded with a smirk, before leaning in to kiss Eliza for the first time in what felt like forever for both of them. "I promise, we will get you through this, together."

Arizona ordered Eliza's favourite pizza, knowing it would help her want to eat. Once they had eaten, Arizona threw the empty box on the floor next to the bed, removed her shoes and led down, pulling Eliza with her. She led there holding her girlfriend whilst they both just stared at the TV, neither woman taking in what was actually on. After a while the awkwardness passed and they both started to chat about everyday things, like nothing had happened.

"So when is Sofia coming to stay with you?" Eliza asked, knowing the little girls visit was soon.

"I'm actually picking her up for the airport this evening." Arizona was so excited to see her baby, even with everything going on with Eliza and at the hospital.

"That's awesome. I bet you can't wait to see her can you?" Eliza was happy for her girlfriend, getting to see her little girl after so long.

"I can't, umm Eliza?" Arizona suddenly went very nervous, she wanted to ask Eliza a serious question but today had already been so heavy for them, she didn't know how.

"Yeah?" Eliza asked, giving Arizona a questioning look.

"Uhhh do you mind if I tell her about us?" The question caught Eliza off guard, furrowing her brow before answering.

"Why would I mind? I love you and you love her."

"Well, if I know my girl, and I'm pretty sure she hasn't changed that much since I last saw her, as soon as I tell her, she's going to want to meet you, I just wondered, are you up for that? If it's today?" Arizona was rambling nervously. She really wanted her girlfriend and Sofia to meet, she had a feeling Sofia would love Eliza, just like she does.

"I would love to meet her, just Arizona?" Eliza was a little hesitant, she wanted to meet Sofia more than anything, but she really didn't feel like she could today, she felt rubbish still. Cautiously trying to explain that to Arizona wasn't easy. Eliza had a feeling she wasn't going to get this out right. "Umm, I'm not sure right now, I don't know if I can handle that."

Arizona was surprised at Eliza's comments. What couldn't she handle? The blonde was so confused suddenly. She stood, silently, pulling her shoes on before saying anything to Eliza.

"Ok, well I have to go pick her up, I'll talk to you later." And with that Arizona was gone. She left Eliza led on her bed, not even giving her chance to try and explain what she meant.

Eliza led there thinking for a while. She couldn't work out what her problem was, she always seemed to have an issue with talk to her girlfriend. Everything had started out so well but recently Eliza couldn't just say what she meant to Arizona. Explain how she felt. She wanted to be completely involved in Arizona's life and that meant Sofia as well, she knew and accepted that. She had no problem with it, it was purely that she was hungover and didn't want the little girl to see her like this, she wanted to show she was good enough for her mother.

Eventually some hours later, after Eliza had written and rewritten so many messages to Arizona, without sending them, she came up with something that could begin to explain how she felt.

EM: Hi, I'm sorry about before, it seems me and words don't want to actually work right now. And you didn't give me chance to explain before you ran out, and now you think I don't want to meet Sofia. I do. More than anything, she's a massive part of your life, and I love you, everything about you. Including her. I didn't want her to meet me, whilst I'm hungover and a mess. I want her to see I'm good enough for her mommy. She's you're world, and you, Arizona, are mine. I'm sorry. Xxx

Arizona didn't respond. Eliza didn't think she would, she would be with Sofia now and Sofia was the most important thing. Eliza just hoped that Arizona had got her message and bothered to read it instead of ignoring her.

Later that evening, Eliza remembered her car was at Arizona's house and that Arizona had her keys. Needing her car to get to work tomorrow, Eliza made a decision to go get it. She got dressed properly, now feeling almost completely better, deciding to walk to Arizona's house. She needed a bit of fresh air and time to think about everything that had been going on the last few days. Tomorrow was her first day as chief of ortho and whilst she knew she could do the job with her eyes closed, she was worried the other attendings would still hate her and make her life difficult.

The walk to Arizona's house was quick and peaceful, before Eliza knew it she was stood at the front door, now suddenly unsure of herself. Before knocking she had to remind herself she was just here for her car keys, then it was up to Arizona.

Knocking on the door gently, Eliza turned away to look out into the street whilst waiting for Arizona to answer.

The door opened and instead of being greeted by Arizona's voice, a child spoke.

"Hello" Sofia said, causing Eliza to spin round.

"Um hi, are you Sofia?" Eliza questioned with a big grin, she already knew but she wanted to make the girl feel comfortable.

"I am Sofia Robbin Sloan Torres." The little girl said extending her small hand to shake Eliza's hand.

"I'm Eliza, Eliza Minnick, I work with your mommy, is she around?" Eliza asked shaking the little girls hand. Just then Eliza heard Arizona shouting at her daughter from the living room.

"Sofia Robbin Sloan Torres, what have I told you about answering the door." Eliza smirked. She knew first hand how commanding Arizona could be.

"Sorry mommy but you were busy so I answered it for you." The little girl said sheepishly.

"Oh, Eliza." Arizona said, surprised to see her girlfriend at her front door after earlier.

"I just came to get my car, you have my keys." Eliza said, Arizona stood sort of stunned "I need it to get to work tomorrow." Eliza clarified.

"I'm ok, come in a second, I'll go get them." Arizona motioned Eliza in and disappeared upstairs.

Eliza went into the living room and sat down on the sofa next to Sofia, who was watching cartoons.

By the time Arizona returned, Sofia had Eliza in full blown conversation about animals and drawing and how she couldn't wait to see Zola and Bailey again. Eliza was laughing at the excitable young girl when Arizona entered the room.

"Well she's definitely your child Dr. Robbins." Eliza stated formally with a grin. Arizona smiled, waving Eliza's keys in front of her.

"Thank you Dr. Minnick." Eliza chuckled and left Arizona's house, leaving them to catch up properly. She hadn't intended to meet Sofia today, but the little girl had forced it to happen anyway.
