"What do you mean Eliza? A patient? Because we lose patients all the time, that's no ones fault." Arizona tried to reassure her. It wasn't working though. Eliza looked at her and just shock her head. Minutes of stunned silence passed. Arizona didn't know what to say or if she even wanted to ask but she knew she needed to somehow help her girlfriend.

"Tell me. If you can." Arizona said, putting a soothing arm around Eliza. Trying to calm her down anyway at all.

"I can't tell you. I can't even accept it." Eliza shot back, with a hint of anger in her voice. She took a breath then said "is you phone on you? I can show you."

Arizona nodded, fishing her mobile from her pocket and unlocking it before handing it to Eliza. She quickly opened the internet and typed something in before handing Arizona her phone back.

Sitting there quietly reading what Eliza had pulled up on her phone, Arizona's expressions changed from shock to disbelief then to understanding and sympathy. She knew this wasn't Eliza's fault but she understood why her girlfriend felt like it was and couldn't accept it.

"Eliza, this wasn't your fault. That woman stepped out between two parked cars straight into the path of your car. You couldn't have seen it coming and you couldn't have done anything about it." Arizona tugged her girlfriend towards her, holding her in a tight embrace whilst she continued to cry her heart out.

"I killed her and her unborn baby exactly a year ago." Eliza mumbled tearfully into Arizona's chest. After minutes of holding Eliza, Arizona decided it was best to take her away from here back to her house. Where she could look after her girlfriend and be with Sofia for a few more hours before she went back home to New York.

"Come on, you're coming home with me." Arizona said standing carefully. She had been sat on the bathroom floor far too long. Pulling Eliza up with her, she guided her to her bedroom to get her into some clean clothes. Arizona sat Eliza on the edge of her bed before finding clothes for her and telling her to get changed.

"I can't come home with you, it's not fair on Sofia." Eliza mumbled, barely loud enough for Arizona to hear.

"Sofia wanted me to make sure you're ok, you're not ok, and I want to make sure you will be ok. She loves you, just like I do, so no arguing, you're coming home with me and we are going to hang out and spend a final evening with her before she goes home. If you stay here, you'll keep on drinking and that is not good for you or our relationship." Arizona hoped she was getting through to Eliza, but her eyes were glazed over as if she was somewhere completely different than in her bedroom.

"Why are you helping me? I don't deserve it." Eliza asked.

"Because I believe you do deserve it, what happened was a terrible accident, not intentional. You're a good person, and you were there for me when Timothy died and I dealt with it by drinking. I know it isn't the same but I understand you want to forget by getting drunk and I know it doesn't help." Arizona said calmly. She took a breath before continuing. "And I'm going to talk to Bailey, we are taking the week off and we're going to get you some help. I love you too much not to help you Eliza."

All Eliza could say was thank you. She wanted to be better for her girlfriend but since Sofia had arrived she had felt progressively worse about the accident she was in. Especially as it was the anniversary today. Seeing Arizona with Sofia had reminded her of what she had taken away from that woman and her unborn child. What they would never experience because of her. She'd never got any help or support when it happened, she'd just moved away and buried her head in the sand, then her mother had got sick and died and she had that to deal with as well, causing her mental state to deteriorate slowly over the last 5 month.

Whilst Eliza changed she text Bailey to organise some time off.

AR: Bailey, I know I have been off most of the last 2 weeks but I need a bit more time. Dr. Minnick needs me. Also she is going to be out for a bit too. I'll explain better when I see you.

Bailey replied quickly, surprising Arizona.

MB: Does this have anything to do with her drinking and the car accident?

AR: You knew? You didn't tell me and you knew?

Arizona felt angry that Bailey clearly knew something was wrong with her girlfriend and hadn't bothered to tell her.

MB: It's my job to know Robbins. Just look after her. I'll see you soon.

Arizona rolled her eyes at the way Bailey had clearly dismissed her from their interaction. Always the chief, she thought to herself.

Eventually getting Eliza into the car Arizona decided to stop by and pick Sofia up on the way home, along with lots of bread and coffee, anything that might sober her girlfriend up.

Pulling up to Meredith's house, Arizona looked over at her girlfriend to find her fast asleep. Clearly she had exhausted herself the last few days and probably hadn't slept at all. Deciding to let Eliza sleep whilst she went into the house she quietly removed herself from the car, closing the door as silently as she could.

"Hi Arizona," Meredith greeted her politely before turning to shout her little girl "Sofia, your mommys here."

"How is she?" Meredith asked.

"Not good. She's in the car, asleep." Arizona responded sadly. "I'm taking a few more days off to see if I can help."

"She's lucky to have you Arizona." Meredith said kindly, gently placing her hand on Arizona's arm.

"I'm the lucky one Mer. She's amazing, she's just really having a tough time at the moment." Arizona smiled gently as Sofia came running down the stairs.

"Mommy, is Liza ok?" The little girl said, not even bothering to say hello to her mommy, just showing Arizona how fond of Eliza she actually was.

"She will be when she sees you baby girl. She's in the car sleeping at the moment so we need to be super quiet ok?"

"Ok mommy." Sofia said to her mommy before heading towards the car.

"Thank you Mer, I really appreciate you taking her this evening." Arizona said giving Meredith a quick hug.

"You know I'd take her anytime you needed. I love that girl." Smiling as Arizona walked to the car to get Sofia strapped in.
