An Unexpected Love

Chapter 1

At home, Arizona and Mark are finally becoming friends. They are currently talking about a patient they are working on together, while Mark drinks his beer and Arizona drinks her wine.

Callie is at the hospital, wrapping things up at work.

Once the two are done speaking about work, Arizona pours herself more wine. Her and Mark are disagreeing on the patient. Mark just simply grabs another beer.

Mark turns the TV on to avoid the awkward silence between them. He occasionally glances over at Arizona whose sitting on the opposite side of the couch and drinking her thoughts away waiting for Callie to get home.

"Don't you think you should slow down" Mark says as he reaches over and tries to take away the wine bottle that's just about empty.

"No." Arizona tries to get up with the bottle in her hand, but Mark doesn't let her. "Move, Mark.."

"No" he teases her, as he says it in her tone.

Arizona rolls her eyes. "Come on, I'm just gonna go to bed"

"Oh, well in that case I think I should join" he smirks.

Arizona laughs. "We have gone through this, only in your dreams"

"Oh you know you've always wanted me" Mark takes the bottle and sips straight from it.

Arizona laughs even more.

Mark laughs with her.

Mark stands and turns on some music. He looks down at Arizona. "You know how to dance" he questions her.

"Not that I'd dance with you" she says.

"Now I'm hurt" he starts to dance some, he still has her wine in hand.

"You poor baby" she says sarcastically. "Give me my wine back." she looks up at him with her blue eyes.

Mark looks down at her with his icy blue eyes, he smirks. "Dance with me and you'll get the rest"

"Fine" Arizona gives in and starts to dance a little.

"Come on! that all you got" Mark looks at her.

"I'm more of a slow dancer" Arizona says low.

"I guess you have to slow dance with me then." Mark smirks.

"No way in hell" Arizona snapped back.

Mark holds up the wine.

She looks at him. "Your lucky it's my favorite"

Mark changes the song and they start slow dancing in silence. His hands on her waist, her arms around his neck.

"Not bad, Blondie" Mark says breaking the silence in the room.

"Do I get my wine now" she questioned.

"I guess a deal is a deal" He replied.

Mark hands her the wine bottle. Arizona takes a sip only to discover that it's empty.

"What the hell, it's empty" Arizona looked at him.

"I know" he said back.

They made eye contact.

He leans in, his put his arms on her waist again.

Their forehead meet.

"Mark.." she said softly.

"I know.. Only in my dreams" he said back.

Arizona puts her hands back around Marks neck. They start to dance again.

Their lips touch softly, they kiss. They find themselves back where they were in the beginning, forehead to forehead.

"I sho-" Mark begins but Arizona cuts him off. "Wow.. that was... it felt good" Arizona couldn't really believe her words. She never thought kissing a man would feel like this..

Mark like what he heard and without another second he leaned in again, they kissed once again.

The door opened. Callie walked in beginning a sentence. "Arizona you sti-.." she was cut off by what stood in front of her. Her best-friend and her girlfriend kissing.

Mark and Arizona broke apart. They both looked at Callie.
