Callie's POV:
"Sofia!!!" The faint sound of running coming down the stairs. "You're gonna be late for school!" Two cold hands hold my waist. "I'll take her Callie, you need to rest. You need a break." I kiss her on the cheek. "Thank you so much Penny." She waves at me as she leaves with Sofia. I lay on the sofa and binge on Netflix, before the door is knocked. I shuffle over to the door, and mutter under my breath "God dammit, this is crap" As I open the door, I stand speechless. Two piercing, blue eyes stand out from everything. "Arizona..." She smiles. "You look really pretty." I tilt my head.

Arizona's POV:
"You... you shouldn't be here" I begin to walk away. "Wait, come inside." I spin around, and head inside. As we sit opposite each other, she opens to start talking, but I interrupt. "I love you, I, I love you. I really love you. I do. I just, I love you. And I have been trying not to say it. I have been trying so hard to just ignore it and Eliza is a great woman. She is. She liked me, you know? She really liked me... But it was never gonna work out, because I... love you. I am so in love with you and I just can't think about anything or anybody. And I can't sleep. I can't breathe. I can't eat. And I love you. I love you all the time. Every minute of every day, I love you. God, it feels good to say that. I feel so much better. I...I love you."

Callie's POV:
I tilt my head at her. "Arizona..." She sighs. "Arizona, you need to leave, go home." She looks at me, before wiping away tears. She grabs her bag and runs out. I gaze at her, and she watches me from the car and drives away. She still loves me. She loves me. I don't love her. I love Penny... Do I? Anyway, Arizona hurt me. She hurt me so bad. We used to be so happy.
Hey.
Hey.
Ortho right?
Yeah right.
Hi, I'm Arizona Robbins. PEDs surgery. I've seen you at the hospital. Are you okay?
Yeah, no. I'm... fine.
People talk. Where we work, they talk... a lot. So for the sake of being honest, I,I should tell you that I know things about you, because people talk.
You mean... terrific.
It is actually... the talk. People really like you over there. They, they respect you and they're concerned and interested. They really like you. Some of them... really like you. You just... you look upset. And I, and I thought that you should know that the talk is good.  And when you're not upset, when you're over... being upset... there will be people lining up for you.
I laugh.
You wanna give me some names?
She kisses me passionately, and I gaze at her confused.
Conditions can change without warning.
I think you'll know.
Romance can make the heart pound...
