Terrified To Love You

Chapter Four

Eliza's pov
I stir and open my eyes as I hear the door creak open. Shit. Richard Webber comes in, takes one look at Arizona and I, lying in each other's arms, glares daggers at us, and leaves the room, slamming the door behind him. Crap. Arizona groans and opens her bright blue eyes. "Who was that?" She asks groggily. "Webber." I say simply. "Crap." She murmurs. "I'm so sorry. I forgot to lock the door." I apologize.

"It's ok baby." I sooth. "Really?" She asks. "Of course. He was going to find out sooner or later. I don't care what he thinks. You make me happy, love." I say as I plant a kiss on her warm, soft lips. She cups my face gently in her soft hands and kisses me firmly. Her lips taste like vanilla and are as warm as hot chocolate, fresh off the stove. I love kissing her so much. It sends butterflies fluttering in my stomach every single time. I undo her ponytail so I can run my fingers through her long, dark brown hair. Her pager goes off and I groan against her lips. Eliza chuckles and pulls away from the kiss to check her pager. "Crap. I have to go. These interns don't even know how to put in a simple IV. I'll see you later, ok?" She says, planting a kiss on my head.  I pout and she laughs and pulls me in for a hug. "I'll see you later." She promises as she kisses me one last time and leaves. I sigh and leave too, knowing I have to get back to work. I have a surgery soon.

I head to the ER and find interns failing at putting an IV in. "Give me the needle. You are all on scut for the rest of the week. Get out!" I scream. One of them hands me the needle and leaves. "You really shouldn't be that hard on them, Elizabeth." A familiar voice says. "Blake?" I say, stunned. "Hi. Before you go all doctor on me, I just got dehydrated. I'm fine, Eliz." He says. I roll my eyes and stick him with an IV. I make sure the fluids are running and pull a chair beside his bed. "You really need to drink more. And when did you get back?!" I ask. Blake's in the army like my dad before him. I was too as a surgeon, for eight years, then I came back here. "C'mon lil sis. I'm fine. I got back three days ago and decided to run a marathon. I'm fine." He insists. I roll my eyes. "What have you been up to?" I ask him. "Training for a marathon." He replied. "Eliza, I need help with...." I head Arizona say. I turn around to see her standing their, glancing at Blake. "Arizona, this is my brother, Blake. Blake, this is Arizona." I introduce. "You're hot. You single?" Blake says, wiggling his eyebrows. I face palm. Blake is a great guy but he is such a flirt sometime. Arizona laughs. "Oh god. I'm a human rainbow and even if I was straight and single, you're not my type." She says, wrinkling her nose adorably. "What did you need, Arizona?" I ask my girlfriend. "The interns are all doing scut thanks to a certain someone and I need someone to assist on my liver transplant." She says, raising an eyebrow at me. "That's my fault but they deserved it and I would love to assist. I'll be right there. Which OR?" I ask. This is going to be great. I get help do a liver transplant AND spend time with my girlfriend. "OR three. I'll meet you there, ok?" Arizona says. "Ok! See you there!" I say as she leaves, closing the door behind her. "Your girlfriend, I take it?" Blake asks. "Yeah, she's my girlfriend." I blush. "Cool. What's she like?" Blake says. "I have to go, Blake. I'll visit you later. Drink some water!" I say as I exit his room and head to OR three.

"Hey." I hear Eliza say as I feel her wrap her arms around my waist. "Hi." I say as I turn in her arms and kiss her lips. "Sorry about my brother. He's a flirt." She says as we break apart to scrub. "It's fine, Eliza. He reminds me of Tim." I smile sadly. Even though it's nice to have someone who acts like my brother, he isn't my brother. No one will ever replace Tim. "Ok. So who is our patient?" She asks. "Five year old boy. His name is Jack." I say as I snap on my gloves. "Cool. Let's give this kid a new liver, baby." She smiles at me. God I love her smile. It sets my heart on fire. "Close your eyes." I whisper. Eliza raises an eyebrow at me, but closes her eyes. I kiss her lips. Gently but firmly. She places her hands on my waist and kisses me back. I hear a low whistle and we break apart, blushing. "Dam, Robbins. Nice." Deluca laughs. I roll my eyes and throw a glove at him. He loves to tease me and I've come to think of him as a brother. "Deluca, get in the OR and make sure the patient is under. Go." Eliza orders. He goes, chuckling the whole way. I grin at Eliza and we go in and start to surgery.

After the surgery, Arizona and I go to check on Blake. "Ah! Look who it is! My lil sister and her girlfriend!" He chuckles. I roll my eyes and we sit down on the couch. "So,  Eliza, tell me about blondie here." Blake says, wiggling his eyebrows. I groan and take Arizona's warm hand in mine. "Blake, good god. You're impossible." I groan. "What? I want to make sure she's good enough for my sister." Blake shrugs. "All you need to know is Arizona is amazing. C'mon. Let's go." I say as I drag Arizona out of the room. "Eliza, wait. Woah. What's wrong?" She asks, pulling me into a spare patient room and closing the door. "He's so annoying sometimes. He always does this. He always interrogates my girlfriends. It's an army thing. He just got back from over seas and I'm glad he's fine and alive. I love him but..." I start. "You need your space." Arizona finishes for me. "Exactly. You get me so well..." I murmur. She kisses me suddenly, catching me off guard. I stumble and fall onto the hospital bed. She lands on top of me and we break apart and start laughing. I gaze into her bright blue eyes and gently cup her face in my hands. I pull her towards me and kiss her warm, soft lips. Butterflies flutter in my stomach. I hear the door open and then a man's voice screaming:"What the hell Robbins?!" Crap. It's Richard again. We break apart and sit up. "I should go talk to him." She whispers. "Hey, it'll be ok." I say as squeeze her hand reassuringly. She smiles at me and pecks my check softly before leaving to go find Richard. I sigh and flop down on the bed. It's not easy when the whole hospital hates you, but at least I have Arizona. With her by my side, I can do anything. At least, I hope I can.
