(Authors Note: This story is set just after Arizona goes back to work after loosing her leg.)
Chapter 1
Callie woke up to the sound of her pager going *bleep* *bleep* *bleep*. She laid there for a second and sighed. She was having such a good dream. She stared at the ceiling, and then at her beautiful wife, Arizona. Arizona drifted awake, and heard the bleeping. With a huge sigh, she picked up the pager off the side to find out who's had woken them up.
"It's not mine! I'm going back to sleep!" Arizona laughs, at that moment her pager begins bleeping as well.
"Oh for gods sake...!?" Arizona moans.
Callie stumbles out of bed, almost landing on her ass more than once.
After 10 minutes of faffing around with toothbrushes and breakfast cereal, the pair are finally ready for work. Jumping in the car, Callie turns to Arizona and kisses her deeply.
"Arizona, there is something we need to discuss over dinner tonight." Callie says.
Arizona takes Callie's face between her hands.
"Promise me its not bad?" Arizona says quietly, she had had to much bad news over the last few years, she felt like anything else would push her over the edge.
"I promise..." Callie replies, uncertainly. She didn't know which way Arizona would take the news, especially as Arizona wasn't all too keen on Callie's family.
Callie started the car, and they drove to work in silence. Arizona watched her wife, she could tell there was something bothering her.
Pulling up in the hospital car park was a job and a half, because there had been a major accident, and there were ambulances and relatives everywhere. Callie finally managed to get to their parking space.
"Remind me why we work in an Emergency Department again?" Callie laughs, kissing Arizona and walking into work.
Arizona was hurt by being brushed off, but she let it slide because there was something bothering Callie.
Callie spent the rest of the day avoiding Arizona, pretending she didn't see her in the corridors and leaving the room when she came in. After what felt like the longest shift of their careers, it finally ended.
Arizona was waiting for her wife in the usual place after work, the lobby area of Seattle-Grace Hospital. She saw her wife approaching, and to her surprise, Callie had a huge smile on her face. Arizona opened her arms to her wife and Callie hugged her tightly. They stood there hugging for longer than they usually did, but Arizona didn't think anything of it. Callie let Arizona go slightly, so she was looking at her, there chests touching , arms on each others elbows, and she had the biggest of smiles on her face. They had both gotten changed. Arizona had on a stunning red dress which came down to her ankles and Callie had a little black dress on.
"I love you, Arizona Robbins." Callie smiled kissing her nose.
Taking hold of her hand, she leads Arizona to the car and pins her against the passenger door, her hands of Arizona's hips, pelvis's pushed together. Arizona put her hands on the side of Callie's face and began to stroke it gently.
"Are you ready for dinner?" Callie asked, pushing against Arizona.
"I don't know whether to be scared or excited..." Arizona replies biting her lip. Callie kissed Arizona again, and jumped in the car. Callie was so excited, and Arizona had no clue what was going on.
"We're going out for a meal..." Callie trailed off, grinning at Arizona.
Callie pulled highway and drove.
