Carina comes in about an hour later, she hands you some vitamins and signs your discharge papers.
Arizona gives you some of her clean clothes she had in her locker, you get dressed and get ready to head back to her place. You bend over to grab your stuff, before you can say anything, Arizona bends down and picks it up with a smile.
"I'll get it Grace" Arizona says quickly.
She holds open the door for you and takes your arm, you go to the carpark and find her car. She puts your stuff in the trunk and helps you get in the passenger seat.
"Grace, we're finally alone..." Arizona laughs.
"Yeah, I guess we are! But I couldn't be happier Arizona!" You smile.
She turns up the radio, you both start singing without a care in the world. Before you know it, Arizona is pulling up into her driveway.
"Come on Grace, let's get you in the warm! It's freezing tonight" Arizona exclaims.
She grabs her keys from her bag and opens the front door to let you in, you feel a blast of warm air and a strong scent of a floral diffuser. You wipe your feet and take of your shoes, Arizona takes your bag and places it by the stairs. She takes your coat and your jumper. You can tell by the way she's treating you, you worried her greatly.
"Right Grace, I'm just going to change into something more comfortable, I'll be right back, make yourself at home!" Arizona emphasized.
You take a seat in a small armchair placed by the window overlooking the street. You start to warm up and get comfortable, you look on Arizona's mantlepiece. All of her medical achievements have been framed, there's photos of her with her Mom and Dad, a few pictures with her and a few long-standing patients with notes of thanks written on the back of them. Wow, Arizona truly is an amazing human. You find yourself needing to use the bathroom. Arizona still isn't done changing, so you have to find it yourself.
You start to walk around, passing through the different rooms in Arizona's house.
You walk out into the hallway by the front door. There are organised coat pegs on the wall, hanging up is her white coat and her spare stethoscope. She has an organised shoe rack containing her running sneakers, heels and her pink wheelie trainers.
You go back through through the sitting room and into her warm and colourful kitchen. There are paintings and drawings her patients have made her that she's attached to the fridge. You look out of a big bay window which overlooks her garden. It's open and overlooking the beach. Her lawn is fresh and green, with carefully planted bright flowers in beds. Alongside a patio at the back of the garden, which overlooks onto the beach and the gorgeous nightly sunset. Summer evenings must be bliss, you smile to yourself.
You walk through the kitchen and into an small but open plan dining room. A small table sits in the middle of the room, alongside a dainty pink tablecloth and pastel yellow chairs and a vase of freshly picked flowers on the table.
In the corner of your eye, you spot another room, open and light. You can feel the warmth radiating out of it. You step into a room with a glass roof, and fairy lights draped around the room. A white piano sits in the corner of the room with a pink stool. You can imagine Arizona out here in the summer, playing the piano. On the other side of the room, there is a desk covered in papers and charts, alongside her laptop and a note you wrote her the other day, she kept it... You smile.
You head upstairs and call Arizona with no answer. You walk into another room, still in search of the bathroom. There's a tidy dresser with makeup and perfumes neatly organised. This room has floral wallpaper with plush white carpets, and it smells distinctively of a familiar perfume... You walk in further and see a pink stethoscope hanging up, alongside freshly washed scrubs folded on top of a dresser.
