Michelle's pov

I can't say I was expecting the evening we had. Arizona had been so strong each time I came onto her, but this time she gave in. It was amazing, and very much needed. the knock on the door took us both by surprise. we both went through to see who it was, even though i said I'd go check. I opened the door to a panicked looking Callie. 

Shell- Callie? is everything okay?

Callie- Can we talk? somethings come up

Shell- sure, do you want to come in?

Callie- I probably shouldn't be too long, thanks.

Arizona- Is Sofia okay?

Callie- yeah, she's fine. fast asleep.

Shell- What's up?

Callie- as you know, I am due to go on this week long ortho conference tomorrow.

Arizona- yeah?

Callie- so my sister was supposed to be looking after Sofia at her place.

Shell- supposed to be?

Callie- yeah. you see... my parents found out what she was doing and has threatened to cut her off if she does.

Arizona- Seriously?

Callie- yeah, they are super religious and I had a kid out of wedlock... so, yeah i'm now dead to them and they want nothing to do with us at all, hence my sister can no longer take care of her niece.

Arizona- I'm so sorry to hear that.

Callie- so... I was wondering if you two could have her here? I would say you two could stay at mine but as you know Jason is doing work on my apartment this week... I know I promised that I would never ask you to take care of her but I figured you two are together now so it wont just be you, Shell. I did think about asking Meredith but her and Derek have Zola and two babies would be too much for them to handle... and I didn't want to ask Cristina because well it's Cristina. 

Arizona- um...

Shell- It's fine.

Arizona- wait, what?

Callie- seriously?

Shell- yeah, it's fine. I'm off work anyway... whoa...ow... Ribs

Callie pulled me into a massive hug, clearly forgetting two important things. one, i hate hugs and two, i have a broken rib!!!

Callie- shit, I'm so sorry.

Shell- it's fine... ow. what time do you leave tomorrow?

Callie- right, um, I leave early... around 9. I can bring everything you need over at 7, is that okay?

Shell- okay, that's fine, we will be awake.

Callie- you two are awesome... thank you so much. I should get back. I'll see you in the morning... bye.

Shell- bye.

I shut the door behind Callie and turned to find a confused looking Arizona

Shell- what? you don't mind right?

Arizona- of course I don't mind, but I wasn't expecting you to agree to having a 6 month old stay with us for a week.

Shell- I told you I like Sofia. I'm off work anyway, so why not.

Arizona- no it's good. 

Shell- plus you are off too so you can do all the diapers

Arizona- Wait, what?
