Note Thanks for caring about me. This one is to stop me from having a mental breakdown. I went head first into this one, so I hope you like it.

August 3rd

Arizona,

I get a call again on the 1st of next month, but Tim has one on the 21st and he said he was going to call you.

I don't think he wrote to you yet, him and Teddy have been talking a lot. She leaves on the 27th.

She showed me the letter you wrote...

Well, kinda... I'm a little, um, protective. She was saying you were kinda rude...

You kinda were baby...

Anyways, she wrote you back so I hope everything goes okay between you two. I know as soon as you really meet her you'll love her.

I know how Mark acts, but that's just Mark. He knows that he cleans up nice, and when he looks nice her gets dirty, so yeah...

I understand what you're saying about men, but I hope you realize I'm not gay.

I'm bisexal.

I know there are some lebians out there that are against bi people, but I know (well hope) you aren't one of them.

McDreamy? Wow. Never heard that one before.

And who is this girl you're falling for?! I already called that! When I get out there I'll be sure to give her the Torres method, I'm sure that'll keep her away for a while.

I can't wait to wake up with your hair all up in my face,

Callie


Addie,

Wow, I missed you too!

I am not talking to my dad... He isn't all for me dating women, so I haven't had the chance to talk to him about Arizona.

I was with her for a whole week and when I got back over here the guys started teasing me about saying awesome.

She's so perky and stuff. It took me a while to make a move, I'm not a perky person. I'm dark, badass and sh*t.

Anyways, I just sent my dad a letter and he hasn't responded.

Tell Mark I said hi. I didn't write to him yet. I don't really want to talk to him about Arizona. I'm not sure if they see eye to eye.

I'll wait to say I love you until I see her again.

Thanks for the advise,

Callie


Robbins,

Okay, now let's go into my past first.

I joined the army shortly after 9/11 and the death of my best friend. Before that I had been studying to become a doctor.

I have been in the army for years and have been all over Europe and some parts of Africa.

My and Owen meet in the army. He became my best friend, I confess I fell for him.

He is now with Dr. Yang and very happy. I am happy for him and I do not love him like that anymore.

You're dork of a brother is amazing. Yes, he is 'city cute' and I usually go for 'army hot' but Tim puts a smile on my face.

Tim is so sweet, and from what Callie tells me, is a lot like you are, childish.

I am coming back to Seattle Grace Mercy West because Owen has asked me to come and mentor his girlfriend, Dr. Yang. She is going into Cardio, and I am a Cardio God, or so they say.

Ask anything else, I will answer with the truth,

Altman.


Mr. Torres,

This is Dr. Arizona Robbins, I am, in fact, dating your daughter.

She is amazing. I know you might not understand how she could all of the sudden like girls, I have heard about her many boyfriends from the years gone by, but she is still your Calliope.

She is brave, going out to the war zone so me and you can sleep in peace at night. She asked me to wait a whole year for her to come back home, which I was too afraid to do.

I haven't known your daughter for very long Sir, but I know no amount of money if worth the chance I have with her.

I can not just stop talking to your daughter, she means too much to me.

I remember when I came out to my family, they are really into honoring our wonderful country. In fact I was named after a ship that got bombed at Pearl Harbor, the U. S. S. Arizona. My grandfather was on that ship and saved 19 men before he drowned.

When my father, Colonel Daniel Robbins, of the United States Marine Corp, heard that I was a lesbian, he said he had only one question. I was prepared for, "How fast can you get the hell out of my house?" But instead, it was, "Are you still who I raised you to be?"

My father raised me to be a good man in a storm, to protect the things I love. I will protect your daughter with everything I have.

Even if I have to protect her from her own family.

Bend for your daughter like my father bent for me. I know you're religious, but love makes a family, not the religion, not what you believe in.

I know you love your daughter. I know you're just trying to look out for her.

Sometimes we try to makes things better and we have no idea that we are actually causing more pain.

I hope you realize your mistake and write Calliope soon. I bet she misses you just as much as you miss her.

Best regards,

Dr. Arizona Robbins
