Amezona Roommates

AMELIAS POV

"Like you want to kiss me," Arizona said. I was frustrated and annoyed, but mostly because she was right. Because I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to throw myself at her. We both stood there silently for a few moments, and I was contemplating my next move. The silence grew longer and louder as I stood against the bathroom sink.

"Amelia?" Arizona said.

"Yeah?" I said.

"I was joking if that wasn't what you were thinking about," Arizona said.

"You weren't joking," I said and looked at her. Not it was her turn to look frustrated. She looked at me and I could tell she was nervous. I suddenly got some sort of courage to walk over to her. I grabbed her face and kissed her passionately. I stroked her cheek with my thumb and pulled her into me. She grabbed my hips and pulled me into her. I felt like I didn't need air. I pulled her as close to me as possible and we ended up hitting the bathroom wall. I couldn't care less.

ARIZONAS POV

I pulled back from her after a steamy makeout session and she smiled. Her hair was messy from my hands running through it and her lipstick was smudged. I fixed her lipstick with my thumb and she smiled. Suddenly, my pager went off, and I wanted to kill the surgery gods.

"I have to go," I said.

"Yeah um, yeah go," she said. I grabbed my things and left the bathroom. I breezed past Maggie and Lexie, quite literally forgetting they were here, and went into the hospital. I changed and scrubbed into an emergent surgery on a little girl.

I finally got home and it was almost 3am. I walked into Derek and Meredith's house and it was quiet. I walked upstairs and slowly opened my door. Amelia was asleep in her bed. I looked over at her and then my empty bed. I couldnt just get in her bed with her. I changed and crawled into my own bed and stared at the ceiling. This was so confusing. Was she gay? Did she like me? She could have just been stressed and needed some relief, I mean she looked pretty stressed when I walked into that bathroom. I'll just sleep this off. I rolled over and closed my eyes.

DEREKS POV

Having Amelia close is nice. I'm glad she finally moved to Seattle. It is unfortunate that she left James, but I guess she had to do what was best for her. I don't totally understand it, but Meredith told me it was none of my business. I guess that's true. Amy talked to Meredith a lot before leaving, so she must have helped. I didn't have work today, so I was making breakfast in the kitchen for my children - the residents and attendings that Meredith let live here. It's fine for now, but eventually I want to have actual children of my own. Arizona and Alex were arguing over some case at the kitchen, and Amelia walked into view in her pajamas.

"Morning," I said.

"Morning," she said. I turned around to hand her coffee and she had a hickey on her neck.

"Whats that?" I said and raised an eyebrow at her.

"Whats what?" she said.

"The hickey on your neck?" I said.

"Oh," she shrugged, "Obviously you know what it is then." Which gained a laugh from Alex.

"Who are you sleeping with?" I said.

"That's none of your business," Amelia protested.

"It is when you live in my house," I said.

"I didn't get this in your house smarty pants," Amelia snarked back.

"Why are you two arguing?" Meredith rolled her eyes as she came into the kitchen and started eating cereal.

"Baby Shepherd is banging someone and Big Shepherd is angry," Alex said.

"Don't refer to us like that," I said.

"You're not my father," Amelia said.

"Well I'm supposed to protect you," I said.

"Derek you're ridiculous," Meredith rolled her eyes, "Your sister is old enough to do whatever the hell she wants with whoever she wants."

ARIZONAS POV

I was sitting at the counter as Derek and Amelia were arguing about her arguably non-existent sex life since we never had sex. I did leave that hickey though, and it's rather fun seeing her get flustered over it.

"Well what if it's some jerk at the hospital?" Derek said.

"You're the only jerk that works at the hospital," Amelia said. She looked up from her breakfast and smirked at me. She was killing me.

"She has a point," Meredith shrugged. I finished eating and went back upstairs to get changed for work. The door opened suddenly and I turned to see Amelia.

"I'm going to kill you," she chuckled.

"Me? You're the one that forgot to cover your hickey like a teenager," I snarked.

"Shut up," she said, "I didn't know it was there."

"If you say so," I said, but honestly I thought it was cute that it was there. I liked it. I don't know what the kiss meant. She was upset when she went into that bathroom at Joe's. She looked frustrated.

"Are you okay?" I asked as I watched Amelia start putting on makeup.

"Yeah, why?" she asked.

"Well it's just that yesterday I followed you into the bathroom at Joe's because you looked really upset, I never asked you if you were alright," I said. I noticed the way her muscles tensed and she put her makeup brush down.

"I'm fine, I was just tired," she said. Obviously that was a lie, but I wasn't going to force it out of her.

"Okay," I said.

"I have to get going," she said as she rushed getting ready and ran out the door.
