Hours later Arizona wakes up again to find Callie asleep and sitting in a chair with her head on the bed.
The blonde reaches over to touch the soft brunette curls when the motion causes Callie to stir and open her eyes. Seeing sparkling blue eyes looking at her softly, she smiles back at her and says softly, "Hey."
"You're still here," Arizona replies.
"Of course, I've been here every day," she says pausing a moment to consider what to say next.
"Arizona, the day of the accident was tough for you and there was a lot going on, do you remember any of it?" Callie asks moving to sit beside her on the bed.
"No," Arizona replies softly, so Callie continues talking.
"At one point during that day, you came to me and you asked me to promise that I would never leave," she explains, "I made that promise and I meant it."
"I'm sorry, I don't remember it," she replies tearfully looking down.
Callie reaches out and lifts up the blonde's chin and smiles at her, "It's okay," she says reassuring her.
"And the things that I do remember Derek says that they didn't happen," Arizona points out as she shifts her weight in the bed and Callie watches her self-consciously feel for her legs.
"Arizona," Callie says carefully, "Arizona, Derek told me about the amputation dream," she adds gently taking the blonde's hand and reminding her, "Your left side was damaged in the crash, your hip was dislocated and you were in traction, maybe that's what confused you?"
"Maybe, but the injuries that I thought that I had are not right, I mean look I still have both of my legs," Arizona replies moving them slightly. "So obviously there wasn't a plane crash and that must mean that Mark and Lexie are still alive, right?" she asks.
Callie smiles at her, "they are okay," she says softly.
"And we're still together and my parents are here," she reminds herself and Callie nods yes.
"Calliope, how long have my parents been here?" Arizona asks.
"Since Thanksgiving, they didn't want to leave, so they've been staying at our place," she explains.
"You've been living with my parents this whole time?" Arizona asks.
"Yeah, but I've spent most of my nights here with you," she replies. "I didn't want you to wake up alone," she adds.
"I'm sorry Calliope, I know how hard that is, after your accident, I spent most of my nights here or with the baby," Arizona says, then looks up at the brunette confused. "Wait, did that happen? Do we have a daughter?"
Crying in relief, Callie nods, "We do have a daughter, Arizona, your memory, it's coming back."
"We were in a wreck, you went through the windshield," Arizona recalls slowly.
"Do you remember anything else?" Callie asks.
"I-I asked you to marry me and a truck came out of nowhere," she says stunned. "When did that happen?"
"It happened in late April," Callie answers relieved that it's coming back to the blonde.
"Are we... did we get married?" Arizona asks.
"We did and we are still married," Callie replies.
"Can I see pictures of our daughter?" Arizona asks.
"Yes, of course," Callie says pulling out her phone and opening the photo gallery. "Here's our little Sofia."
Arizona takes the phone and looks through the photos, stopping at one with Callie and Mark holding the baby, she frowns.
Callie moves to sit on the bed to see the picture and she gasps, unsure what to say, she waits for the blonde to say something first.
"Bailey said that I went to Africa, that was before this, right?" Arizona asks.
"Uh, yes," Callie confirms. "You went to Africa for about three years, but you came back after three months... Ah, you know what Arizona, this is a lot for you to take in, maybe you should rest now. We can talk more later."
Handing the phone back to the brunette, Arizona closes her eyes briefly to refocus them before asking, "Can I see Sofia soon?"
"Yes, I'll have your parents bring her over later, but why don't you rest now," Callie says bending down to kiss her lightly on the forehead.
"Hey, you paged me?" Mark asks entering the room.
"Why are you in photos with Callie and Sofia?" Arizona asks him directly.
"Uh," he stammers, "Uh, you know that's a really good question, but if you uh, don't remember then I'm not supposed to say anything," he replies nervously.
"Did you sleep with my wife Sloan?" She asks ignoring his response.
"I haven't slept with her since you got back together and I definitely haven't since you were married," he answers, "Arizona we're friends now, all of this is behind us," he adds entering the room and sitting down.
"Except it isn't Mark, the last thing I remember is not being real happy with you but I don't know why yet and I want you to tell me," she says firmly.
Standing up quickly and backing his way out to the door, he replies, "Sorry, blondie. I can't tell you anything."
"Mark, what are you doing in here?" Derek asks from behind him.
Sloan turns around, "She paged me and she's trying to pump me for information, so I'm going now," he says slipping past Derek.
"How am I supposed to get better if you don't let people talk to me?" Arizona asks frustratedly.
"They can talk to you and they can help you when you are remembering, but I don't want them telling you things that you don't remember at all," Derek explains to her. "Now Callie said that you remembered Sofia, but not your wedding, so you're making progress, just give it time."
He comes over to the bed and examines her, "I've ordered a follow up CT and some other tests just to make sure and then we'll need to get PT in here to get you up on your feet," he explains.
"I asked Callie to bring Sofia later, I need to see my daughter," she says challenging him to say no.
"That's great," he says and smiles at her. "I think that's a good idea for you and for her," he replies.
"How's Zola?" Arizona asks suddenly, then her eyes light up as she realizes that she's remembered something new.
"Zola is great," he replies smirking, "See it's all going to come back to you, just wait for it. Oh and I'll send Meredith in to take you for the new scans."
"Dr Robbins?" Lexie enters the room tentatively, Derek told her to take the blonde to CT since Meredith wasn't available.
"Dr Grey, it's good to see you," Arizona says as she watches the younger doctor disconnect her from the monitors. The blonde catches a flash of a ring. "Wait, what is this?" she asks grabbing the younger doctor's hand.
"Uh, it's my engagement ring," Lexie replies.
"Wait, what?" Arizona stutters, "Mark?" she asks.
"Mark," Lexie confirms.
"Yay, that's great. I mean I think it is. Is it great?" Arizona asks her.
"It is great. And it's beautiful, you picked it out, Callie was supposed to go with him, but she was stuck in surgery," Lexie says as Arizona looks at her confused. "Damn, and I'm not supposed to be telling you things that you don't remember.
"Mark told me that he and I are friends now, but I wasn't sure what he meant," Arizona replies, "If I helped him pick out the ring, then he was right we were, because I wouldn't have done that if we weren't," she admits.
"Ever since Sofia was born, the whole parenting trio thing has really changed you guys and Mark especially," Lexie remarks as she wheels Arizona out of the room.
"Oh my god! Mark is Sofia's father," Arizona blurts out.
While Arizona is getting scanned, Lexie pages Callie who shows up quickly.
"I know you said not to tell her anything, but she saw my engagement ring and we were talking then I accidentally mentioned that Mark was Sofia's father," Lexie confesses.
"You what?" Callie blurts out. "Lexie! What was it about don't tell her anything that was not clear?" she asks loudly.
"Look I'm sorry, I just, we just were talking and I forgot for a minute, I mean she sounds good now, she's stronger, she seemed like herself," Lexie stammers.
"Torres, what's going on is there a problem?" Mark asks entering the CT control room.
"She told Arizona that you're Sofia's father," Callie explains. "So we need to talk to her when she gets out of the scan."
"Okay," Mark says unconcerned.
"And she knows about the engagement ring," Callie adds.
"Callie it's going to be fine," Mark assures her. "She's been remembering more, it was just a matter of time before she remembered it anyway."
"Happy New Year Dr Robbins," Alex says entering her room the next morning.
"Happy New Year Karev, have you been here all night?" she asks.
"Oh yeah, it was great. I spent all night in and out of the OR with Dr Bailey and Hunt," he explains excitedly.
"So who'd they get to take care of Peds while I've been out?" Arizona asks him.
"Uh, Bailey has been interim head of Peds, why?" he asks.
"I was just worried that they had hired someone, don't worry. I'll be back in a month," Arizona says confidently.
"You're nuts. You've been in a bed for over a month, no way you'll be back that soon," Alex remarks.
"Watch me Karev, I'll be kicking your sorry ass by the end of the month," she promises him.
"Arizona, I want to explain about Mark," Callie begins when she enters the room later that afternoon.
"Calliope, relax after talking with Lexie, I paged Dr Kepner and she was nice enough to come in here and fill in my gaps. Residents really do know all the good gossip by the way." Arizona explains.
"W-what did she tell you?" Callie asks nervously sitting down in the chair beside the bed.
"Apparently we were going to Africa together, but we broke up at the airport, you came back here, hooked up with Mark and got pregnant, I came home and we got back together and decided to have Sofia together," Arizona replies. "Am I close?"
"Pretty close, but do you remember any of it yet on your own," Callie asks.
"Unfortunately, my memories are coming back and I remember our fight at the airport," Arizona replies.
"Ah, well I wish that I could forget that actually," Callie admits, "Do you remember anything else?" she asks.
"It's all just kind of scattered in my brain right now," she explains. "But I'm tired of talking right now and I'd really just like to lay here and rest with you beside me," she adds and pats the bed beside her for emphasis.
"Really?" Callie says raising her eyebrows. Then she goes over to the door and closes it, then she slips off her lab coat and lays it over the chair before sitting down on the side of the bed, Arizona sits up to let Callie lay down first, then she snuggles into her. They both relax contentedly in each other's arms.
