A week later Arizona was standing against a wall in their trauma room. It had been a slow day. There had only been a couple of patients, nothing too big. She wasn't going to say it out loud though, knowing what that would cause.

She decided to go check on Madison. It was late, around midnight but she saw that the other woman was still awake. "Hey." She said as she sat down in the chair next to the woman's bed.

"Hi." The woman softly greeted back. Madison had been doing okay, she had had a couple of more complications and had needed one more surgery but she looked like she was on the right way back.

"How are you feeling?" She asked her colleague. Even though Madison hadn't been nice to her, she wasn't going to be the bitch that wants revenge, she had decided on staying nice and being her friend, cause she needed one. They were actually getting along pretty well and Madison felt like a friend. Sam had been busy and had barely visited Madison. Arizona knew that wasn't the only reason he hadn't been by her bed but she wasn't going to ask what else was behind it.

"Okay." She responded, giving Arizona a small smile.

"Want to tell me what's going on with you and Sam?" Arizona asked. She wasn't usually the person who wanted to know everything about another person's life but she figured Madison might wanted to talk about it.

She earned another thin smile. "Only when you tell me what's going on between you and what was her name..-"

"Callie." Arizona finished.

Another smiled formed on Madison's lips, bigger this time. Her eyes were filled with joy, or something. She loved hearing gossip.

Arizona opened her mouth to start but then she heard footsteps walk into the trauma room and she turned around to see Callie walk around the place, heading towards their still shared bedroom. She turned her head back at Madison, who still had that hopeful, almost childish grin on her face.

"Sorry Madison, maybe later. I gotta do something first." She said as she stood up, walking away. She heard Madison protest as she walked away towards her bedroom.

"Hi." Callie said as she heard Arizona close the door. She avoided eye contact though, making up her bed for the night.

"You need another room." Arizona said emotionless. Her tone startled Callie as she looked up into the eyes that were filled with anger, love, sadness. All kinds of emotions were floating around in those blue eyes. "Arizona, we talked about this." Callie said as she walked closer towards the woman, now standing close enough to touch, she was startled by the sudden reaction of the blonde.

"No, no!" Arizona said, as she roughly pushed Callie away, making the other woman startle. "You can't do this okay, I can't do this. We.. we can't." She said as her voice broke and tears left her eyes.

Callie's hand softly touched Arizona's shoulder but she shrugged it off before she even felt it. "Please..-" She said, while sobbing, "Please, just go."

Callie wasn't just going to let this happen, which Arizona had expected. Her reaction had been a bit sudden, and probably scared Callie off. "Where in the hell is this coming from Arizona? " The other woman started pacing around the place while she remembered their moment from last week.

When Callie had felt Arizona lips against her own she could do nothing but groan against them. She couldn't believe that a kiss could ever feel that good, that it could feel that magical. For her kissing had always been good, but it had never felt like this. It was amazing, but it scared the crap out of her.

She felt Arizona's tongue stroke along her bottom lip, asking for entrance. Callie wanted nothing but to deepen the kiss, but she couldn't, they couldn't.
