Callie’s POV

I opened one eye sleepily and was happily startled to feel Arizona’s warm body curled up next to me. For a moment I thought it was a dream, but thankfully it wasn’t. She was still asleep and softly snoring. I felt her start to stir a few minutes later as I watched her with an affectionate smile on my face.

“Is that you?” she growled ( Read more... )

Callie’s POV

We left Lake Tahoe the next day and took our time driving back to Seattle. We stopped in San Fransisco for a couple of days and then reached Seattle Friday evening in time for dinner. I made grilled ham sandwiches for dinner while Arizona gave the boys a bath. We all were feeling the end of the vacation blues especially me as I had to ( Read more... )

Arizona’s POV

The next day I picked up Callie at the hospital and took the boys with me. We bought a big bunch of flowers and some chocolate which DJ insisted on giving to Callie himself. The discharge process went smoothly but she was still looking very weak and pale so we straight to the hotel so that she could put her feet up and get some rest. I ( Read more... )

Arizona’s POV

I followed the doctor into the I.C.U and sat down next to Callie. The doctor gave me a quick nod and then left. She looked so fragile, there were machines hooked to every part of her and the oxygen mask obscured part of her face. I gently took her hand in my own and kissed her fingers. The knuckles were cut and bruised and there was ( Read more... )

Arizona’s POV

It sounded as though there were sirens everywhere as I came back from the bait shop. I saw an ambulance roar past me as I walked to the swimming hole and it gave me an odd feeling but I pushed it aside. When I got to the swimming hole I found Aiden running up and down on the river bank crying hysterically and waving his arms in the ( Read more... )

Arizona’s POV

"Arizona…don't….please don't."

"I'm sorry." I said but I wasn't. I loved her and I wasn't scared to admit that. "I'm sorry Callie….I didn't mean to upset you." I whispered.

She got up and walked to her room and softly shut the door refusing to look at me.

I stared sadly at the door of Callie’s room hoping she would come out again ( Read more... )

Callie’s POV

Arizona picked me up eight fifteen the next morning to leave for our trip. She looked happy and relaxed and bent forward as if she was about to kiss me and then remembered herself and backed away giving me a shy glance. She carried both my bags to the car and I carried a small tote bag with my make-up and toiletries, some snacks for all ( Read more... )

There were two days left for the boys to arrive and I finally had my apartment organized. I had found an apartment to rent and had unpacked and arranged all the stuff I had brought from San Diego. In the evening I brought Callie over to have a look at the apartment…..I was excited to hear what she thought about it.

Callie’s POV

Two weeks had passed and I still felt as if I were in a dream. The paper’s George’s attorney had spoken about had arrived. I had signed them in all the appropriate places and checked the box that had stated I wanted no spousal support. I said very little about it to Arizona who had periodically been checking up on me. She however ( Read more... )

Callie’s POV

Arizona picked me up the next morning at 10 o clock. She was waiting outside my room in jeans, a UCLA sweatshirt, a sun hat and sneakers. In one hand she was carrying a picnic basket and in the other a beach bag full of towels, creams, books and a Frisbee.

I laughed when I saw her “You look about fourteen in that outfit.”

“Is that a ( Read more... )
