Callie's POV:
As I wait impatiently, nurses and doctors walk past me endlessly. "Callie, they'll be here soon" Meredith says. I needed some support. I wouldn't make it in her room on my own. "Calliope Torres?" I jump up, "Yes, that's me." He shakes my hand. "Follow me please." Following the doctor, memories of Arizona full my head.
Calliope. Iphigenia. Torres. I love it.
The door creams open, allowing me into room 3645. She lays lifeless once more in the bed. I've been here before. Her eyes are open, but still. She's staring at the room. I cover my mouth, to silence my pain. I rush to the bedside she faces. "Arizona, I'm here. I'm so sorry." I lean in to kiss her hand, and she pulls away instantly. I stand up in confusion and shock. "She's... not going to be herself. Permanent or temporary? We don't know just yet." My eyes start to well up. "No! No ..." I stumble back into the chair. Meredith comes and hugs me. "I can't do it again, Mer. I don't know if I can. I, I need to stay, for her, but I don't know if I can..." She rocks me in the chair as I cry.
