Chapter 1
„Arizona! – Wait!" She screamed while she was running after the blond who made her way to one of the operation rooms where she was going to have an operation on a six year old boy.
She spinned around by hearing her strong voice taking in the full sight of her beautiful girlfriend trying to catch her. When she was finally reaching her she couldn't resist kissing her magnificent pink lips. It was a simple kiss, their lips were just touching for a brief moment, but full of longing and desire, like Callie would kiss her every time, everyday, forever.
"You came for that?" Arizona replied showing her amazing dimples. The brunette waits to answer, because she was to captivate by her look and her lips she was catching one more time.
"Yes and no…" Callie replied smiling while the blond was raising one eyebrow.
"You know I want to kiss you every time in every possible minute, but now I was coming, because we have surgery together! You haven't seen it?"
"No… But… you think that'd be a good idea???" Callies smile faded as she heard the concerned tone in Arizona's voice.
"What do you mean??"
"Well… you honestly think it would good for our patient if her doctors couldn't concentrate because of each other?"
Now she laughed out loud, stealing another kiss. Arizona absolutely knew how to tease her.
"I guess we have to behave…"
"Yeah we really have to…" Arizona answered with her lips coming nearer to Calliopes, but right before she was able to kiss her, she stopped.
"But then… you have to give me a kiss that lasts 5 hours…"
"Not a problem…" Callie replied, willing to give her the things she wanted with caressing her lips with her own. She let the kiss deepen by opening her mouth and letting her tongue trail lines on Arizona's lips, right before she biting her upper lip softly. But hard enough to make her moan.
"I wish we could spend some time together now… not in there… but in our bed…" Another small laughter escaped the brunette's lips, right before they were kissing a second time and then stepping into the cold ER where Baileys already waited.
"Are you two ready to save a life?"
Arizona smiled like she always does before an operation. She was smiling to transport her hope and she never fears claiming her. It was a promise she gave herself to be strong. It was something she did every time.
"Of course we are…" She replied, smiling.
She liked the feeling of staying in this room for hours. She liked it to have the power, to be able to do something. She never liked the idea of being unable to save a life. She never wanted to sit and wait, knowing she couldn't do something. When her grandpa died she felt like that, knowing she just has to accept it, because there was nothing she could do. Because of that she was becoming a doctor, because she wanted to be the people telling their patient family everything was fine. She loved to see their expressions, and she loved to see their smile, to hear their laughter. But not every time it was like that. There were times she couldn't be all perky and smiling. There were times she couldn't save lives even she was a doctor. Two hours ago it was like that, a moment she always was scared of. But it wasn't avoidable.
She had to tell a father his little daughter would die and she couldn't imagine how It would be to see your own child die. He couldn't either. He was crying, screaming at her, forcing her to do something, asking and pleading, but though her heart was breaking she couldn't do something.
"Sometimes medicine isn't enough, Mr. Parker. I wish I could do something. I treated Bonnie for 2 years now and you know how much I care for her, but also medicine has limits and I can't do anything about it. I'm sorry… I'm seriously so sorry…" Tears were welling up in her eyes when she explained him his daughter would die in less than 2 months and she couldn't do something because everything else would be to risky. He stormed out of the room leaving her with her own thoughts. 2 hours ago she was crying and now she was standing there, smiling and starting to fight for another life she hopefully would be able to save a life.
She looked up from the small body, looking straight into Callies eyes. Every time she was looking at her she felt peaceful and calm. Everything would be alright with her at her side. A last glance, a smile, a nod, before she was looking away.
"Scalpel…" She said out loud and felt a cold small metal thing in her hands only 2 seconds later. Her second hand was reaching for the young boy and she started to pray.
"Ok… alright…" She whispered right before…
Suddenly she heard a door opening.
Who the hell would disturb her now?
As she looked up from the small body in front of her she caught her breath.
"Mr. Parker…" She said out loud, confused. "… What are you doing here? I'm sorry, but you have to leave. You shouldn't be in here. It's only allowed for doctors. I'm starting an operation right now."
"No… you're not…" His voice sounded strange and he breathed heavily when she looked into her eyes.
"What is going on her?" Baileys looked confused and annoyed. A boy was lying there, ready for his operation and she wasn't the one who liked some sort of idiot games.
"I don't know…" Callie replied in her direction, watching Arizona who was as confused as all of them.
"Mr. Parker, please. Wait outside for me. We can talk later about everything you want to talk about with me. I promise I'll be out there in a while…" She tried to get him out of the room, but he didn't seem like he was planning to leave. Instead he was coming nearer.
"Like you promised me to do anything you can for Bonnie?" He asked with an angry voice.
"Mr. Parker… you know I…"
"Shut up, bitch! You are like the others! I trusted you and your opinion! But now you let her down like everyone else!"
"Mr. Parker…" She tried hopelessly to calm him down, but he didn't seem to calm down, instead he was becoming more and more angry each minute.
Everyone else was following the conversation not knowing what to do. Even Bailey kept looking at him in disbelief.
"You are not going to operate on anyone now…" Arizona didn't know what he was going to do, until she recognized his hand under his black coat.
"Oh my god…" She was whispering when he was finally showing what he was hiding under his coat.
"You are not going to operate anyone else than Bonnie…"
Callie couldn't believe what as happening in the OR. A man was standing right in front of them, pointing with his gun at Arizona which was looking hopelessly at him, her eyes full of compassion and angst.
"Mr. Parker… please… think of what you are doing"
"No!!! You are listening to me now. Everyone is getting out of her, except of you, or I'll kill one of them including you Dr. Robbins…"
He was raising his gun, pointing at her, but nobody was moving until she screamed another: "GET OUT!"
Everyone was gone, terrified and not sure it was reality; it was true what was happening right now.
Callie was the only one who was still standing there at her girlfriend's side. Her mind was racing and she was hardly breathing. She was scared. She was scared because of the gun which was pointed dangerously in Arizona's direction. No, she couldn't leave now. She couldn't leave her. She couldn't lose her.
"And you… you are bringing Bonnie here…" He suddenly said out loud, freeing Callie out of her numbness.
"No…" She whispered almost not audible, her eyes still widened. "No way I'm going to leave!"
"Dr. Torres..." She heard Arizona say and it was strange to be called like that, but she absolutely know what she was going to do. She would treat her like everyone else so she wasn't in danger. But she wanted to be in danger if it meant to be able to stay here. No way was she going to leave her with a lunatic man with a gun who pointed at her.
"Alright…" Now he changed the direction of his gun, pointing at Callie.
"You are not going… you die…"
"Calliope!!!" Arizona's voice was strong but also trembling. All she wanted was Callie at her side when her knees were shaking, her heart was trembling and she felt like she would throw up any minute, but she couldn't concentrate with her in this room, a gun pointed at her, and all she had to do was concentrating.
"Please…" She whispered, looking right into her brown eyes, pleading.
When she was standing up with her at her side she never thought the day would end like that. But she had to be strong to stay alive, to be able to kiss her again, to hold her through the night, to smell her and to tell her how much she loved her. She had to do anything he wanted from her, and she would do it, as long as Calliope was save.
"Okay…"
"Now, go and get her as fast as possible or she will be dead before you are coming back…"
Calliope looked a last time in her girlfriend's direction, knowing what she had to do.
"Don't do something stupid before I get back… stay alive… Please… I love you…" She was saying with her eyes as she left the OR, running.
That was just an idea in my head. If you want me to continue, tell me and I'm going on with this ;-)
