Callies POV

It's passed lunch now and I haven't seen Arizona all day, I have been in surgeries but usually we would still see each other even if it was just passing in the halls

It was 3 now and since I was finished for the day I decided on going to get paisley from daycare early

"Hey, Dr.Torres. Dr.Robbins already got her this morning" Michelle told me when she seen me

"She did? Oh. Well thanks" I smile and I go up to Arizona's office

It's odd she didn't even text me to tell me she had gotten paisley early

When I got to her office I knocked and when I didn't get a response I walked in and she wasn't in there

Now starting to get worried I called her just to find out her phone was still on her desk

"What the hell" I mumble and walk out of her office and to the nurses station.

"Hey, has anyone seen Dr.Robbins?" I ask

"She walked out with Dr.Shepherd and Dr.Grey about an hour ago" one of the nurses tell me and I nod

This time I decided on calling Meredith and luckily enough she was in the same room as Arizona so I was able to talk to her on merediths phone

"Where are you?"

"Just with Mer and Amelia."

"And you didn't think to tell me you got paisley from daycare?"

"Callie not now.... I'll come find you in a little"

"Can I at least come get my daughter?"

"I have to go, we will see you later"

She hung up the phone and I groaned

What the hell is going on.

I knew she said she would find me so I believed her and went to my office to hopefully get my paperwork done while I was still worried sick about Arizona

Arizona's POV

"You can't hide from her forever" Meredith says when I gave her Phone back

"I know. I will page her in an hour" I say and she nods

I sat in the hospital bed and played with paisley who has woken up

"Momma okay?" She ask and I nod

"I'm okay bug" I smile and she kisses my cheek and Amelia and Meredith were in the corner whispering

"If you are going to talk about me like I'm not in the room talk louder" I say and they apologize

"Can I draw some blood?" Meredith ask and I sigh but let her

"Don't hurt momma!" Paisley shrieks, seeing Meredith getting a needle ready

"Hey, I'm okay. They aren't hurting me I promise" I assure her and turn her around so she couldn't see what they were doing

"All done" Meredith says she paisley looks over at her

"See bug? They didn't hurt me" I smile, proud of my daughters protectiveness

"Be nice" paisley warns them causing us all to laugh

The two of them left the room and I decided now would be a good time to tell Callie before everyone else started to find out and it got back to her some other way

Since I didn't have my phone on me I had to use the phone in the hospital room and called her and told her to meet me in here

5 minutes later Callie walked in looking confused

"Mommy!" Paisley smiles and Callie picks her up and kisses her head

"What's going on?" Callie ask and I sigh

"Come sit" I say and she sits on the bed with me

"Arizona what's?" She says and I interrupt her

"It's back" I say

"What?" She ask, still a little confused

"The cancer. It's back and Callie.... It's not good" I say and I could see tears fill in her eyes

"What? What are you talking about? Amelia got it last time. It- it was gone" she says and I nod

"Yes. But, now there's Mets, everywhere and it spread to my abdomen" I say, trying to stay strong in front of my baby

"Where's your scans? Why didn't you tell me sooner? How long have you known?" She ask and Amelia and Meredith come back in

"Hey... let me take her to daycare so you two can talk and I will come back" Amelia says and I nod and paisley happily goes to her

"About a week, I felt sick. I asked Amelia to give me a scan and she did. There's 14 Mets in my brain....  She was then worried about it spreading so we did another scan and this time, Callie there's too many to count" I say and she lets a few tears fall

"I can't lose you" she says, causing me to cry as well

"They can help you though right? You'll be okay?" She ask and I couldn't respond, how am I supposed to tell my wife we have less than a year together.

Before I could respond Amelia and Meredith walked back in

"You can help her right? This isn't over?" Callie ask them

"Callie.... It's not good. Even if we were able to get the Mets out of her brain the ones in her abdomen would take over too quickly" Meredith says

"So she's going to die? You're going to die?" Callie ask us all I fall into her lap

"How long?" Callie ask eventually, running her fingers through my hair

"6 months if we do nothing, a year with chemo" Meredith says

"So we do the chemo right?" She ask and I sigh

"Can you guys give us a moment?" I ask and the other two surgeons walk out once again.

"Lay down" I say and we lay in the bed together, my head on her chest

"Zona I can't; I can't lose you" she says and I

"I know and I can't lose you either" I say and we both cry into each other

"I don't know what to do" I admit quietly

"The chemo Arizona, it'll keep you alive longer" she says and I sigh

"Callie our baby turns 3 next month, you know as well as I do if I start chemo then I won't feel up to anything" I say and she sighs

"Why don't we just spend some time together. Okay? And I will have Amelia go get paisley at 5" I say and she nods and I hold tightly to her and lay my head against her chest

There is so much I am going to have to do. So much. I need to call my parents but that can wait.

At 5 Amelia came back in the room with paisley and she knew something was wrong, she didn't say anything but cuddled up close to me

"Have you guys talked?" Amelia ask and I sigh

"No, it can wait until tomorrow" I say, not wanting to talk about it in front of paisley and I didn't want o ruin the moment

"Of course" she says and I get up from the bed

"Whoa what are you doing?" Callie ask

"I'm going home" I say

"Arizona you can't" Amelia says and I chuckle

"I can, and I will sign whatever it is you want me to sign and I will be back tomorrow but I'm not spending the night in the hospital again when my bed is perfectly fine" I snap, knowing that they couldn't stop me, Callie paisley and I left for home
