Chapter 3

It's been more than 3 days since Eliza and I have had any sort of contact or communication. Not even a god damn text message. I miss her, I know we've been dating only a few months but I really really like her even though I don't show it sometimes. I guess the divorce and being out of the game has gotten me rusty, it's also hard to open myself up and let my guard down, but Eliza's been doing that to me, she has a special hold on me and I can't tell what it is, I don't know if it's how she carries herself or her beautiful green eyes or the way she smiles or just seeing her in action and seeing how passionate she is about teaching those residents to be the best they can be. Missing her, I decide to shoot her a quick text.

Arizona 8pm

Hey beautiful, what are you upto?

Eliza 8pm

Hey just got home not too long ago. Going to change and then probably have a quite night in, I so need it, works been killing me.

Arizona 8:01pm

How so ?

Eliza 8:01pm

Just all the resistance from attendings, long hours, I mean I'm used to the long hours but this load is just something different, still not settled into Grey Sloan I guess.

Arizona 8:01

I'm sorry about the attendings, we can be quite a tough bunch to get through but I'm sure they'll come around just as I did.

Eliza 8:02pm

Yeah but you had other intentions :)

Arizona 8:03pm

… and what might that have been ?

Eliza 8:05pm

You know getting in my pants

Arizona 8:06pm

OH MY GOD, are you serious ?

Arizona 8:06pm

Are you always this forward?

Eliza 8:07pm

But it's true though

Arizona 8:10pm

No it's not! You're the one who chased me and wanted to get into my pants not me!

Eliza 8:10pm

Ugh, I might have chased you but not only to get into your pants but to get into your life beautiful.

Arizona 8:12pm

Eliza Minnick, you continue to shock and awe me. It's fucking annoying you know.

Eliza 8:12pm

I know.

Arizona 8:12pm

Ughhhh whatever.

Arizona 8:13pm

But I do have to say you're somewhat addictive

Eliza 8:14pm

Hmmmm, what makes you say that?

Arizona 8:20pm

You make me feel all sorts of ways and I long for you, when I don't see you for sometime. You shouldn't have pursued me because now I can't get you out of my head.

Eliza 8:22pm

And that's a bad thing because?

Arizona 8:23pm

It's not a bad thing, I just hate how addictive you are. I constantly think about you, when I walk the halls of the hospital I hope that I bump into you or get a glimpse of you or that I catch you in an on call room and you know….

Eliza 8:25pm

No I don't, tell me

ARIZONA 8:27PM

Eliza…

Eliza 8:30pm

Arizona…

Eliza 8:31pm

Tell me…

Arizona 8:33pm

Nothing, goodnight.

Eliza 8:33pm

Don't be a wuss, spit it out.

Arizona 8:35pm

You know you are difficult to deal with right…

Eliza 8:35pm

Ughh am not! You still like me though

Arizona 8:36pm

Yeah whatever

Eliza 8:37pm

Because I'm addictive right?

So tell me whats addictive about me?

Arizona 8:38pm

Ummmm, how about no!

Eliza 8:39pm

Oh come on Robbins, don't leave a girl hanging like that.

Arizona 8:39pm

Oh, now looks who's begging….

Eliza 8:39pm

Pretty please

Arizona 8:40pm

Only because you said please.

I don't know, what it is to be honest...

Eliza 8:41pm

Well just tell me how you feel about me. Be honest

Arizona 8:41:

Well….

Eliza 8:45pm :

Well…

Arizona 8:46pm

Arizona Robbins 8:48pm

Dr Robbins! 8:50pm

Babe! 8:55pm

Arizona 9pm

Sorry got a call, got distracted…

Eliza 9pm

So tell me…

Arizona 9pm

Tell you what?

Eliza 9:01pm

Stop playing dumb

Arizona 9:02pm

Lol ok ok, someone's impatient

You make me smile and make me all giddy.

No one's chased me like you have. It feels good to be wanted

Eliza 9:02pm

Honestly who wouldn't want you?

Arizona 9:03pm

Ha tell that to my ex-wife.

Eliza 9:03pm

Well she's a dumbass for leaving you.

Arizona 9:04pm

Sing it

Eliza 9:06pm

Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude but seriously.

I guess I can say I'm the lucky one so I'm not complaining, I actually should be thankful to her.

Arizona 9:07pm

Yes you could say you're lucky (wink emoji)

Eliza 9:07pm

Anyways back to telling me how addictive I am.

Arizona 9:10pm

There's something about that confidence that exudes intelligence, power, hard work and you def have something sexy going on, it maybe the eyes or the athletically toned body or your beautiful lips or the scent that intoxicates me everytime I'm close to you, I can never think straight when I'm near you, you consume all of me.

And that fact that you like me and just how flirtatious you are makes me all giddy.

Ha I sound like a damn teenager… 9:13pm

Ok bye, goodnight 9:15pm

Thinking - OMG did I just really tell her all that, gosh damnit this woman is making me crazy, I was never supposed to fall for her this way and this hard but she makes it impossible not to like her.

Fuck I'm so embarrassed right now for my confession

Eliza 9:16pm

Ha, well that's really cute and not we're not done texting so no goodnight yet.

Tell me more 9:18pm

Arizona 9:20pm

Arizona Robbins! 9:24pm

Arizona 9:30pm

Ok now you just want me to rub you ego.

Eliza 9:31pm

Maybe

Arizona 9:32pm

Jesus you are too much!

(I'm loving this back and forth banter with her though, it's fun)

I'll tell you next time…. 9:33pm

Eliza 9:35pm

Well you know how I feel about you…

Arizona 9:36pm

Tell me.

Eliza 9:37pm

Maybe next time

Arizona 9:40pm

Seriously?

That's not fair at all!

Eliza 9:41pm

Nothings fair in love and war beautiful.

Arizona 9:43pm

Ughh I hate you.

Eliza 9:44pm

No you dont :)

Ok good night now.

Arizona 9:45pm

Seriously, you gonna leave a girl hanging like that?

Eliza 9:45pm

It's just…

Arizona 9:46pm

Just what?

Eliza 9:47pm

I just don't have enough time to tell you how I feel about you, it could take all night, plus I'd rather show you how I feel about than text. It's so much more fun :)

Arizona 9:48pm

Smooth, nice save.

I swear it better be worth it.

Arizona thinking - man this lady has me by the grip, I really really want to know how she feels about me. I mean I know she likes me and pursued me but I want to her know her true feelings about me since we've spent some time together and we've gotten to know each other a little more in that past 3 months.

Eliza 9:50

Oh you wait and see, it'll be totally worth it (wink emoji)

Good night beautiful, sleep tight and don't dream about me too much ok. I'll see you at work.

Arizona 9:50pm

Ha,

Gnight to you too Dr Minnick!

You know what to do. Hit review and let me know your thoughts.
