AN: Let's see if this is worth a go. The idea just won't leave me. The rating will most likely go up with time.

It was a quiet, peaceful afternoon downtown; the sun was shining, people were out enjoying the nice weather…it was just one of those days where it feels like happiness is literally in the air, when you can feel the warmth and glow of the sun spread through your body.

Or something like that. It was probably like that for a lot of people, probably even Arizona as well, but she wasn't quite willing to accept those kind of feelings today.

The blonde stirred as the sun shone through the windows in her bedroom. She slowly stretched and opened her eyes, blinking a few times and gazing up towards the ceiling. What was there to look forward to today? She hadn't really accomplished much work in the past few months, her girlfriend was gone after years of criticising her every movement, and to top it all off: she clearly must have suffered some sort of mental break and bought a total fixer upper of a house; there wasn't much of this house she didn't have to change. But she was stubborn and determined, so she rolled out of bed and headed to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

Teddy jogged in through the front door with a box of donuts and pulled her earbuds out as Arizona was on her second coffee with a spoonful of dry cereal halfway to her mouth.

"You've always had a special way of entering a room, Teds." Came after milliseconds of being somewhat startled at the intrusion

Teddy shrugged and tossed the box of donuts on the counter "You've always been a weirdo and have your cereal without milk. Guess we're both special."

"I brought you donuts, by the way, you're welcome." The taller blonde said as she hopped up on a stool next to Arizona and stole a few sips of her coffee "So what's the plan for today?"

"Meh." She shrugged as her forehead wrinkled in thought, her eyes creasing a little as she turned to Teddy "I've gotten most of the drywall up, but we should probably give them a final check before going to pick up the paint…oh, and the flooring should be getting delivered sometime tomorrow…so whatever, I don't really have big plans for the day"

Teddy tried not to cringe thinking of all the back pain that would come with painting and laying the flooring…and that was really just the tip of the iceberg "Tell me again why you have all this space for just you? And why you're so set on turning it into a loonie bin? I mean, you're actually planning on little hidden spaces and your weird little lofty spots, really?"

Arizona simply scoffed and dropped her spoon down into the bowl and hopped off the stool to take her dishes to the sink "Because, A) It'll be awesome B) You never know when you could use more space C) I just want to, it'll be awesome. Just trust me. Remember our treehouse in high school? You didn't think that was an awesome idea at the start either."

"Okay, I'll give you that one. How about: we check the walls, go grab some paint samples and have lunch at Jim's while we make decisions about your little Neverland Ranch thing you have going on here"

Arizona didn't even bother responding to the Neverland comment, it would only encourage her best friend further "Sounds good…wait, Jim's?"

"Yeh, you know, daytime version of Joe's? The quiet little place on the corner downtown, with the awesome fries?"

"Oh, riiiight. Okay, go shower first. You stink. I'll go around and check the drywall and make sure we don't need to pick anything else up while we're out."

'cuz dry cereal, am I right?
