CHAPTER 9
Callie slowly opened her eyes, the morning light streaming through the windows interrupting her peaceful sleep. She smiled as the sight of the woman lying enveloped in her arms greeted her. Arizona was sleeping peacefully beside her; their foreheads were almost touching, her right arm wrapped tightly around Callies' waist.
Callie leaned closer to the blonde and gave her a light kiss on the corner of her mouth. As she pulled away, Arizonas' grip tightened around her and she could see a hint of a smile on her lovely face. Callie kissed the attendings' nose and waited for her to open her eyes. Arizona lazily opened her right eye and as she saw the raven haired woman looking adoringly at her, the ped surgeons' smile widened.
"Good Morning" Callie greeted the woman lying next to her.
Arizona simply opened her other eye and leaned into the ortho surgeon, giving her a quick, but sweet kiss on the mouth. As she pulled away, the Latina followed the blondes' retreating lips wanting to lengthen the contact for a few more seconds. When Arizona stopped and bashfully looked away, Callie gave her a worried look.
"What's wrong?" Callie whispered, running her hand through Arizons' blonde hair, smoothing out the unruly curls.
Arizona shook her head lightly and held her stomach, her cheeks turning slightly red.
"Hey, you can tell me…if-if you have doubts about last night-"Callie started, dread rising in her chest.
"No" Arizona stated adamantly, looking intently at the raven haired woman as she placed her hand over Callies' chest to stop her from continuing with that train of thought.
"Then what is it?" Callie whispered as she traced the smaller womans' cheek with her thumb.
Arizona cleared her throat before looking at the younger woman
"Morning sickness" She quickly admitted and then proceeded to cover her mouth with her hand before hiccupping. Callie made to stand to help the smaller woman but Arizona lightly placed her hand behind the brunettes' neck holding her in place.
"Don't move, just stay here with me for a little while longer…it'll go away in a minute" She whispered, closing her eyes and concentrating on the slow circles Callie was making with her thumb across her temple.
"Are you sure? Let me get a bucket or something just in case"
"No, the last thing I want is for you to see me puke my guts out…that is so not sexy" Arizona joked with a warm smile, her eyes still closed.
"Seriously?...How many times have you cleaned me up after seeing me get sick?" Callie chuckled knowing full well her weak stomachs' tendency to rebel against her any time she felt anxious or overwhelmed.
"Plus, you always look sexy...even when you're puking your guts out" She finished giving the other woman a dazzling smile even though her eyes were still closed.
Arizona slightly opened them, mimicking the ortho surgeons beautiful smile. The blonde couldn't help it, she made her way to the Latinas' mouth fully intent on giving her a proper good morning kiss when suddenly they heard a loud cough coming from somewhere in the room.
Callie immediately pushed herself up and leaned against her elbow, blushing when she realized who was in the room with them.
Colonel Daniel Robbins was sitting in a corner chair, newspaper in hand. He gave his daughter an affectionate smile and Callie a quick nod before he resumed with his reading. Cynthia Robbins was sitting next to him, coffee mug in hand and a closed book on her lap. She was blowing on her coffee with an impish expression on her face
And finally, to Callies' dismay, Cristina Yang was standing at the foot of the bed. She was pretending to be writing something on the chart in her hand. The resident was pressing her tongue against her cheek; clearly trying to keep from laughing.
Callie carefully extricated herself from Arizonas' hold, ignoring the annoyed "hey!" the other woman gave her. She stood up, adjusting her dress and looking at her wristwatch.
She feigned surprise as she did a double take on the time.
"Is that-is that the time? Whoa I'm late…I am really late for-for-for…." The nervous ortho surgeon fumbled.
"Rounds" Cristina helped without looking up from her chart.
"Yes!, Rounds! Cause I am a surgeon and that's what we do so…I'm gonna head out now…" Callie lamely babbled as she hopped on one foot trying to put on her left shoe…she couldn't seem to stop talking.
"Umm…I will see you later" She said as she quickly turned to an amused Arizona who had been leaning on her good arm, watching the nervous attending with a bemused smile on her face. Callie turned to the blondes' parents who were looking at her with curious yet warm expressions on their faces.
"and I hope the both of you have a good morning" She awkwardly said, clearing her throat and bowing her head a little before she made her way out the door, not before giving a smiling Cristina a poisonous glare.
Arizona stared at the empty space the beautiful Latina had just occupied, her mouth slightly agape and her eyebrows raised in utter surprise. Before she could make any sense out of what just happened, Callie stormed back into the room
"Screw it" Arizona heard the younger woman mutter as she made her way to her side, immediately seeking out the blondes' lips with her own. Callie lovingly cupped her face as she lightly took her bottom lip between her own, soliciting a full blown smile from the older attending who put her hand on the back of the raven haired womans' head deepening the kiss while effectively keeping Callie in place. After a few seconds, Callie reluctantly stopped, giving Arizona a dopey, crooked smile before leaning in and placing a shorter, but equally intense kiss on the blondes' lips.
"I'll see you later" She gently repeated her previous statement. All Arizona could do was nod, the kiss having left her utterly speechless.
Callie straightened and turned to look at Daniel and Cynthia who were now staring at her sincerely surprised and impressed at the usually anxious womans' boldness.
"Colonel Daniels, Cynthia" She confidently remarked with a slight nod before she turned and left the room.
Izzy Stevens walked out of the elevator, nervously chewing on a pen while reading one of her patients' charts. At the sound of Meredith giggling she looked up to see the oldest Grey sister leaning against the nurses' station with Cristina and Alex beside her. They were completely immersed in something just out of her view. She exhaled loudly and walked over to her closest friends and her ex-husband needing their advice on the case she had been working on.
"Hey guys…I need your help with something. I have a 36 year old woman suffering from intense headaches but nothing shows up on the CT, we tried-"
"wait,wait…shh be quiet for a second. Looklooklook" Cristina interrupted the young resident as she pointed at something in front of her with a potato chip in hand and unceremoniously proceeded to pop it into her mouth.
Before turning to look at whatever had the other residents' attention, Izzy chanced a fleeting look over at Alex who quickly averted his gaze and shook his head slightly, clearly annoyed with his exes' presence.
Izzy rolled her eyes and directed her attention to Callie, Cynthia and Daniel who were standing outside the ped surgeons' door. Callie had her back to them, evidently speaking to the older couple. Cynthia was holding the orthos' forearm giving her an encouraging smile as the Colonel held his chin and listened intently to the younger woman. He said something, interrupting the attending and inciting a loud laugh from his wife.
"Arizona's not in her room. Callie ran into scary, soldier dad and crazy, over protective mom...We have a pool going to see how long it'll take for her to completely freak out in front of them" Cristina filled the taller resident in on why they were so immersed in the scene taking place in front of them.
"Why would she freak out?" Izzy asked as she took a chip from the small bag Meredith was holding.
"It looks like Callie and Arizona are back together" Meredith informed her with a smile.
"Really? That's great!" She said, genuinely happy for them. But, as she finished processing what her friends were doing she continued with a small scowl on her face
"Ew, what you guys are doing is so not right, it's just gross and mean. It's completely- Is she crying?- I give her 30 seconds before she cracks…put me down for a twenty" She finished, as she chewed on the snack.
Alex grunted, "This is stupid…I have work to do" he said as he grabbed his charts and started to make his way to a patients room, bumping into Stevens on the way.
"Hey watch it!" She protested.
"Whatever" Alex replied without looking back.
"Ignore him…he's just bitter cause he lost. He thought she wasn't gonna last two minutes with the scary parents'" Meredith joked, trying to appease her angry looking friend.
Izzy huffed loudly, trying to distract herself with Callies' current predicament. She heard the elevator doors opening and the three women turned to see who it was. Teddy was pushing Arizonas' wheel chair. Both women were chatting away, Arizona laughing at one of Altmans' jokes. A severe looking police officer trailed a few feet behind them, giving them some space. They had not seen the three people quietly speaking outside the blondes' door. As Izzy turned she was surprised to see Callie hugging the older woman tightly. The ortho then looked at Daniel who squeezed her shoulder and leaned in to whisper something to the younger woman giving her a conspiratorial smile when he finished. The brunette chuckled and nodded slightly.
"Damn it!" Cristina said as she took some money out of her pocket and handed it to Meredith.
"See? Told you…I think this means you owe me some money Izzy" She said as she stared triumphantly at her friend. The younger resident didn't seem to have heard her, completely engrossed with what was happening in front of them.
Arizona had seen Callie, her eyes instantly beaming with happiness and her body stiffening in anticipation. As Callie spoke to the Robbins' her attention turned towards the blonde. She gave the woman in the wheelchair a radiant smile as she continued with the conversation.
As soon as Teddy stopped next to the trio, Callie held out her hand and the blonde silently took it as her mother leaned down and kissed her on the cheek, running her fingers through her daughters' hair. As the five of them animatedly spoke, Arizona kept stealing tender glances over at the woman standing next to her. Callie playfully pulled on her hand as she smiled trying not to veer her attention away from what Cynthia was saying. After a few seconds, Callie squeezed Arizonas' hand as she turned around and said something to the blonde woman. Arizona smiled and nodded with enthusiasm. With that her parents' leaned down and kissed their daughter as Teddy squeezed her shoulder and waved goodbye to Callie. She then made her way over to the nurses' station as soon as she spotted the three young surgeons.
Izzy swallowed the lump she felt in her throat. She couldn't help the small pang of envy that coursed through her body. That was the way she was supposed to be with Alex now, they should be in love, holding hands and staring adoringly into each others eyes. Ashamed, Izzy pushed down all those angry feelings, knowing full well the couple in front of her didn't deserve them. Izzy knew that if anyone deserved to be happy, it was Callie. She had gone through horrible things over the last few years, and a lot of those things had happened no thanks to her. Izzys' eyes watered over as she thought of her best friend, George, and the suffering they had caused the young attending.
Callie placed a kiss on the blondes' hand and then guided the wheelchair to the elevator, the stoic police officer still following a few feet behind. As the doors closed Izzy was brought back to the present by Dr. Altmans' voice.
"Cristina, you up for an angioplasty later today?" She asked as she stood in front of the three doctors.
"Uh…yeah" Cristina responded, looking at her mentor as if she just asked her what two plus two equaled.
"Come on, I'll fill you in on the case" Teddy smiled, fully aware of the residents' excitement.
Cristina hurriedly picked up the stack of charts next to her and followed Altman, bumping into Izzy as she made her way out.
"Ow!…what the hell is wrong with everyone?" She demanded as she rubbed her sore arm.
Meredith chuckled, knowing her friend well enough to know Cristina wasn't the real reason she was in a bad mood.
"Come on, lets get something to eat, and I'll try and give you a hand with your case" she said as she wrapped an arm around the taller womans' shoulders and ushered her over to the elevators.
Callie made her way into the cafeteria, contentedly listening to the beautiful woman in the wheelchair chat away.
"…so then Teddy tells him to go jump off a cliff and walks away…she just left him standing there in front of everyone!" Arizona stated, clearly proud of her best friend.
"Can you believe it? She actually told Steven off…I didn't think that was ever going to happen!" She finished breathlessly as she looked up to see if the silent woman was even listening to her.
Callie was currently scanning the room, clearly in search of someone. Arizona gave a small pout, disappointed that someone else was going to join them. She had hoped it was just going to be her and the beautiful Latina this evening.
"Calliope? Are you listening to me?" Arizona asked, still looking up and getting a little annoyed with her.
"Hm?, yeah of course I am baby " she said distractedly as she spotted whoever she had been searching for, smiling at them profusely.
Arizona blushed at Callies' slip of the tongue, all frustration with the younger doctor melting away. It had been a long time since she had heard that word coming from the ortho surgeons' mouth and even though Callie hadn't seemed to notice, Arizonas' body definitely had.
Callie looked down, redirecting her smile at the blonde attending. "Teddy should have left that scumbag a long time ago" The younger woman agreed as she pushed the wheelchair to the far side of the cafeteria.
Arizona smiled triumphantly; glad Callie was with her on this. She then turned to see who Callie was looking at, her smile fading as soon as she saw who it was.
The blonde surgeon sincerely cared for and liked Mark and she understood the close friendship that Callie and the plastic surgeon had but this was not a particular moment she wanted to share with the older attending.
Mark chuckled as he saw the young blonde attending give him a disappointed look. He quickly grabbed the coats that had been resting on the table in front of him and stood from his chair. As they neared, he simply winked at Callie as he handed her the coats and then turned his gaze over to Arizona. "Looking good Robbins'" he said as he squeezed her shoulder and headed out "You can thank me later" he uttered over his shoulder.
Arizona looked at Callie with a stunned expression "What is he talking about?" She asked cautiously.
"You'll see" The younger attending replied with a chuckle and mysterious smile as she turned and whispered something to officer Russo who had been quietly lurking behind them. The older man nodded in understanding and followed the women as Callie maneuvered them to the exit on the other side of the cafeteria. The police officer stopped right outside the doorway and let the women go on their way, keeping a watchful eye on them.
"So, I was in surgery all day, two hip replacements and an open fracture, and out of nowhere I get a yearning for some Italian" She explained to the blonde as she called the elevator that led to the roof.
The doors opened and as she led the wheelchair into the small space she continued
"I remembered Mark is friends with the owner of this little Italian place that opened a few months back, 'Il Tavolino' so I asked him if there was anyway I could have some food delivered here, he said sure and well…I saw the menu and I just couldn't make up my mind"
Callie was looking up at the ascending floor levels as they made their way to the roof. She was standing beside Arizona and had absent-mindedly gotten a hold of her hand as she spoke. When they arrived, she took her place behind the blonde and wheeled her out. Callie guided them to a door on the far corner of the deserted hall and crouched down; helping the smaller woman into the coat she had been carrying.
As she closed the zipper, Callie felt a soft hand caress her cheek. She looked at the peds attending who had remained uncharacteristically quiet all through out their short journey, a sweet and contemplative look on her face as she stared into the beautiful womans' dark eyes. Callie gave the blonde a heart stopping smile as she closed her eyes and leaned into the other womans' soft caress. Arizona bent forward and placed a gentle kiss on the brunettes' lips. Callie cupped her face with both hands as the peds surgeon moved her lips and tenderly kissed her closed eyelids, smiling when she heard the younger woman take a shuttering breath. Finished, she nuzzled her nose and waited for the ortho surgeon to open her eyes. Callie slowly opened them and cleared her throat as she stood, determined to continue with her plan, even though now, all she could think about was devouring the blonde womans' soft lips.
"The problem is" she continued, obviously flustered…"I-I think I ordered way too much food and you know I hate to let food go to waste so I asked myself…who else likes Italian? And I immediately thought of you" She said as she opened the small door that led to a separate and isolated part of the roof, away from the landing pad.
A surprised gasp escaped Arizonas' lips as her eyes settled on the sight before her. There was a small table in between two high walls that separated that part of the roof from everything else. The table was set, complete with a white table cloth, wine glasses, beautiful plates and silverware. Next to it a slightly larger table was filled with all types of delicious and succulent smelling platters.
"So you see my problem right? You have got to help me out here…there is no way I can eat all of this by myself" the ortho surgeon said as she guided the wheelchair over to the table and settled Arizona in front of it.
"Calliope…" a speechless Arizona tried to articulate a sentence, without much success.
Callie silently picked up the plates on their table and made her way over to the other one. Picking out Arizonas' favorite dishes. She then presented the blonde with the neatly served dish and moved her seat next to the blonde.
"Callie, you don't even like Italian" Arizona reminded the ortho surgeon with a playful smile.
"What? Pff I love Italian…What are you talking about? It's like you don't even know me, really" she said as she took a small bite of her lasagna.
"mmm That. Is. Goooood" she stated a little too enthusiastically.
Arizona chuckled as she held the brunettes hand in her own "Thank you" she said, sincerely touched at the lengths the younger woman had gone to for her.
-
Both women were sitting closely together at the small table. They had finished eating almost an hour ago and were completely sedated. Callie had put away most of the food, planning to take it home to Mark and Cristina.
An easy conversation had risen between the two women, who were carelessly laughing and talking about anything and everything. Callies' hands were resting on Arizonas lap, she had the smaller womans' free hand clasped between her own. Her left knee was currently in between the blondes' two legs. Their bent heads almost touching. The ortho surgeon had her head bowed down, her body shaking with laughter at something the beautiful attending had just said. Arizona playfully nudged the raven haired womans' forehead with her own, her own laughter bubbling up despite herself.
"That is not funny Calliope…stop laughing" She warned the younger attending trying to sound as serious as possible and failing miserably.
"Oh come on! How can you and your brother dressed up as Raggedy Ann and Andy not be funny?" she blurted out before succumbing to another fit of laughter.
"We lost a bet…it was stupid…and it was a long time ago" She argued, but couldn't help the small giggle that escaped her lips.
"Uh...it wasn't that long ago..you were what? Twe-twe-twenty-five?" She stumbled over the last part of the sentence as a full blown laugh escaped her lips again.
"I knew I should've kept that one to myself" Arizona muttered self-deprecatingly. Callie took a deep breath trying to control herself .
"ok, ok..I'm stopping" She said, taking another calming breath.
Arizona rolled her eyes and waited patiently for the other woman to quiet down. After a few seconds, the laughter subsided and they stared at each other, a wide smile on both their faces, recognizing how long it had been since they had shared a moment like this.
"I missed this" Arizona admitted, lacing the other womans' fingers with her own.
"me too" was Callies' simple and honest reply.
The ortho-surgeons suddenly looked away, a shy expression taking over her features. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear before looking back at the beautiful woman in front of her.
"Calliope?…" Arizona questioned, not knowing why the younger doctors' mood had changed all of a sudden.
"I won the Harper Avery…did you know that?" Callie asked
Arizonas' eyebrows shot up…clearly surprised at the news. She shook her head and opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out. She wasn't sure where this conversation was going.
"I just found out…yesterday…when-when you went to the apartment, Mark had planned this big party with everyone at the hospital to celebrate"
Arizona looked at the raven haired woman in silence, remembering how Callie had been holding Lindas' hand in her own. She swallowed audibly, trying to push back the sharp pang of jealousy she felt for the other woman. She patiently waited for Callie to continue.
"It was supposed to be one of the most memorable and important nights of my life…but I just felt empty…like something was missing." Callie gave Arizona a meaningful look before continuing.
"I drank…a lot. And then Linda told me she missed me—"
"Callie…I don't think-" Arizona interrupted, her eyes watering over, not wanting to hear the end of whatever Callie had to say.
"Just let me finish, please? …she-she held my hand and I felt wanted for the first time in a long time and I thought for just a second that I could be happy again…" Callie softly spoke as she looked away, a lone tear streaming down her face.
"That was such crap" She whispered mostly to herself as she let out a dry and humorless laugh. The ortho surgeon looked back up when she heard the beautiful blonde sniffle. Arizona had tears streaming unchecked down her face.
"Don't cry…don't…I'm sorry this is coming out so wrong" Callie cooed quietly as she brushed away her tears. When that didn't help she leaned in a little closer and kissed them away. Arizona placed her hand on the other womans' chest and leaned into the raven haired womans' soft touch.
"I was just kidding myself, I know that now…I could never be complete or-or truly happy...not without you" She gently whispered, mere inches away from the blondes lips.
Arizona smiled despite the tears and nodded her head, understanding with every fiber of her being what the woman in her arms was trying to explain to her.
Both women sat quietly, their foreheads pressed together. Arizona still had her hand on Callie chest and after a while, she suddenly felt the young womans' heartbeat quicken.
"Calliope? What's wrong?" A worried Arizona asked
Callie gave a quiet laugh, knowing she had been caught.
"Nothing's wrong Ari…" she chuckled despite the few tears that still managed to escape her eyes.
"I just wanted to know if I can kiss you now" She whispered with a bashful smile
Arizona laughed and cupped Callies' cheek in her hand. Without giving a response she lunged forward and captured the ortho surgeons' mouth in her own. This time the kiss was anything but gentle. Arizona urgently sucked on the raven haired womans' bottom lip, seeking permission into her mouth. As their tongues made contact for the first time, a soft moan escaped both women, the feeling so intense they had to stop for a second to catch their breath. They stared adoringly into each others' eyes.
Not wanting to waste anymore time, Callie closed the brief space between them, continuing the frenzied kiss. Arizona grabbed Callie by her jacket, pulling the raven haired woman towards her. Callie had no choice but to stand from her chair. Not wanting to break the kiss, she simply stayed bent over Arizona.
A soft cough and a shy "Excuse me?" forced the two women to part.
"You have got to be kidding me" An annoyed Callie mumbled under her breath as she turned her attention to the door, not moving from her position over Arizona who had buried her face in the brunettes neck, inhaling deeply, trying to control her erratic breathing.
Officer Michel was standing right outside the door, an awkward expression on his face.
"What?" an exasperated Callie blurted out.
"Callie…" Arizona cautioned, as she looked up at the younger woman with a warning smile while tucking a strand of dark hair behind the ortho surgeons' ear.
"Sorry" a tightly wound Callie chuckled and planted a kiss on the blonde attendings' head before straightening.
"Sorry to disturb you, I was on my way to relieve officer Russo and I bumped into Dr. Montgomery. She's looking for Dr. Robbins, she wanted to know if she could run some tests before going back to L.A. tonight" He informed the women, looking directly at the peds' surgeon, not wanting to make eye contact with the Latina staring fixedly at him.
Callie looked down at Arizona, waiting for a response.
"Uh, sure…we'll be right down Christopher" Arizona answered, taken aback.
The young man nodded and left the two women alone on the roof.
"That was…odd" Arizona mused out loud, not having planned any exams for the baby with Addison this week.
"It's probably nothing Ari…Addie's leaving later, so she probably just wants to make sure the baby is doing fine" Callie assured the attending. When she saw the blonde giving her an unsure nod she stepped closer and crouched in front of her, taking her hand in her own.
"The baby's fine…I'm sure of it" Callie tried to soothe the peds' surgeon again.
Arizona took a deep breath "Here, can you help me up?" She asked Callie as she made to stand. Callie quickly stood and helped the blonde doctor to her feet.
As soon as she stood, Arizona encircled the taller womans' neck with her right arm and hugged her tightly. Her left arm which was on a sling rested between them. Callie followed suit, placing her arms around Arizonas' waist and lightly rocked them both from side to side.
"Hey, I have something for you" Callie whispered softly, touching the blondes' earlobe with her lips as she spoke. Callie smiled when she felt a shiver make its way through the smaller womans' body.
"Calliope, you don't have-" Callie silenced her with a kiss.
"Actually, It's something that belongs to you, I'm just giving it back" She whispered into the other womans' mouth. Arizona wasn't letting her lips move from where they were.
The blonde stopped kissing the younger attending, curious to know what she had in store.
"Wait here a sec" She said as she gave the blonde a light peck and went for her purse. She rummaged around for a few seconds, Arizona smiling at the familiar sight of Calliope rifling through her cluttered purse.
"Here" Callie stated triumphantly as she made her way back to the blonde. She held her hand and turned her palm around, placing Arizonas' lost necklace over her outstretched hand.
"The police found it in your car. I know I should've given it to you earlier but I couldn't…I kept it because I felt that I at least had a small part of you with me…I'm sorry" She whispered, staring intently at the shorter woman.
"It's ok Calliope…I understand, really I do" Arizona answered with a hoarse voice, knowing full well that was the same reason she hadn't been able to take it off even though she had started a new relationship with Eva all those months ago.
"Will you put it on for me?" She asked as she gave the necklace to the raven haired woman and moved her golden hair away from her neck.
With a bright smile, Callie made her way behind Arizona. She placed the necklace gently around her neck and deftly closed it. Giving her a soft wet, kiss on the back of her neck when she finished. The Latina saw how the fine hairs that rested there stood on end and she couldn't help but hug Arizona tightly from behind.
"I love you" she whispered into her ear.
Arizona rested her weight against the taller woman and held her right hand in her own, squeezing it tightly and closing her eyes, enjoying the feel of the other womans' breath on her neck.
"Now I need you to do something for me" Callie said. Arizona smiled as she turned around in her arms.
"Anything" she responded without hesitating.
Callie put her hand inside her pocket and took out her own necklace. The one Arizona had given her on Valentines' day what now seemed like ages ago.
"I never wore it…I couldn't, it hurt too much. But I never leave the house with out it" Callie explained to the other woman.
"I don't want to take it off ever again" She whispered gently, knowing that Arizona understood the promise underlining her words.
Arizona leaned into Callie and kissed her as she softly took the necklace from Callies' hand. Without stopping the kiss, she expertly placed it around Callies' neck and clasped it securely.
"I love you so much" The blonde whispered as she looked longingly at the beautiful woman in her arms.
Callie smiled and hugged her tightly, careful not to hurt her injured ribs. She placed a soft kiss on her mouth.
"Come on, let's go find Addie" She suggested as she helped Arizona back into her chair. She grabbed the leftover food which she had placed in different Tupperware containers which Mark had practically begged her to take in order to keep his food fresh.
"Here I'll carry those" the blonde offered as she took the containers from the beautiful Latina.
"What are we going to do with the rest of this stuff?" Arizona asked as she directed her gaze at the tables which still held plates, glasses and silverware.
"Don't worry, I'm planning on giving Officer Michel a very special assignment" Callie quipped as she guided the beautiful blonde back into the warm building in search of their friend.

Thanks again for reading...I didn't have time to proof read this so I apologise if it had any big mistakes. Also let me know if it's getting too sappy. I kinda had the feeling it was by the time I got to the end, (I wrote the words "kissing" and "hugging" a lot! and I pretty much got sick of writing them lol) but I just couldn't stop myself! I'll try to tone it down for the next one. I'm probably going to reintroduce Seger (the kidnapper) so that probably means more drama so I guess it's okay I overindulged in this one. Ok it's late and I'm rambling...sorry lol..thanks again! I'll try to post as soon as I can!
