"James, are you sure?" Callie asked, while she held his hand and sat next to his bed in a chair. Arizona was packing her stuff so she was alone with James but luckily Arizona had left the door open so they could still see each other. He smiled at her, weakly. "I'm sure. Go home Callie." She frowned. "But you will only need a week or two to recover enough to go home. "I can wait you know, it's only two weeks and I don't feel good leaving you here." She caught another smile before she quickly looked at Arizona who was still packing. "I'm serious. I'll visit you when I'm back. Go take your girl home." Callie's mouth dropped open. "How?" She hadn't had the right moment to tell James that they were together yet and Sam and Logan had promised to keep their mouths shut when they talked to them late last night. It was only yesterday that James had his big surgery so there was really no way anybody could have told him. "Callie, come on. The two of you are practically having sex right here. I'm actually feeling a bit awkward." He said with a teasing smile. Callie blushed and dropped her head slightly. Then she caught Arizona walking out of the room, holding her bag. Callie already had hers with her and she knew she needed to say goodbye now because they still had to see to some others.

Arizona felt awkward when she walked over to the two of them. She didn't know if Callie had talked to him about it and instead of giving her a sign the woman just smiled at her. She knew the Latina was doing it on purpose, not giving her any signs. "Uhm.. hi." She said. "Hi." Callie returned and James just smiled. This was mean. Slowly Callie's smile widened into a large grin and she grabbed Arizona's hand and yanked her down. The blonde even had trouble keeping her balance. Callie pressed her lips to Arizona's while her hand rested on the woman's arm to help her stand still. After the Latina pulled away Arizona looked at her with widened eyes before her smile grew. "so.. I guess you told him." She said. "No, she didn't." James answered, which made Arizona look from one person to the other, surprise all over her face. She opened her mouth to say something but James interrupted. "I swear, a monkey could have noticed that you two were together." Callie laughed and the blonde gaped at James. "That bad?" He nodded and all laughed. After a couple of minutes the laughing faded away and an awkward moment of silence fell over the group. "We should go." Arizona said, breaking the silence. Callie nodded, the atmosphere had changed and she felt her eyes water. Arizona smiled and placed her hand on Callie's shoulder, squeezing it lightly. Callie kissed James on his cheek and stood up. She grabbed her bag and wiped her cheeks with the sleeve of her shirt. "Goodbye." She said. "Bye." Arizona followed. "Yeah yeah, go. I'll visit you two soon enough." He said with a strong smile. Callie and Arizona didn't notice that after they turned away, James felt the tears creeping down his face too.

A couple of hours later Callie and Arizona entered the plane that would take them to New York. Callie had to take another flight from there to Seattle and Arizona would stay in New York. As they found their seats (luckily next to each other) Callie knew that they needed to talk about how they would continue their relationship and what they were going to do about the distance. She already called the chief yesterday and he had said that he was happy to have her back again, however she didn't know the situation of Arizona. "So.." Callie said, while she looked at Arizona who was still putting her small bag under her seat. "What are you going to do?" Callie asked as the blonde sat straight in her seat. She gave her a puzzled look, indicating that she had no idea what the brunette was talking about. "You know. Are you going to stay in New York or..?" Callie was careful with the topic because she didn't know how Arizona would responded. She really just wanted her to work at Seattle Grace but maybe Arizona would think it was too soon or maybe she just didn't like the hospital. "I don't know Callie. I'm not staying in New York that's for sure.. Maybe I could… if you'd like.. apply for a job at Seattle. I don't know if they need anybody.." Arizona stared hesitantly at Callie. The Latina's smile grew into a huge grin. "You would like that?" She asked. The blonde smiled back at her. "I'd love to, Calliope."
