Would You Come Home

"Hey, the nanny is coming to get her later." Arizona told Nyssa softly.

Nyssa looked up and nodded.

"What's wrong?" Arizona asked softly, moving closer to her girlfriend.

Nyssa shook her head. "N-nothing."

"You seem upset." Arizona says, pulling Nyssa into her arms.

"I'm f-fine." Nyssa said.

The blonde kisses her shoulder gently. "Nys, you can talk to me."

"I'm f-fine." Nyssa repeated.

"Baby, talk to me." Arizona begs softly.

"I-it's t-the f-first t-time I'll b-be a-away f-from h-her." Nyssa stuttered.

Arizona gently caresses her cheek. "I promise she'll be fine."

"I d-don't w-want to l-leave h-her." Nyssa said.

"It's only while we're working." Arizona promises softly.

Nyssa sighed deeply.

The blonde gently pulls Nyssa into a kiss.

Nyssa kissed her back.

Cupping her cheek, Arizona slowly deepens the kiss.

Nyssa wrapped her arms around Arizona's neck.

Arizona's free hand drops down to Nyssa's hip.

A knock on the door caused them to pull away.

Clearing her throat, Arizona moves to open the door.

Nyssa watched her.

"Hello?" Arizona says softly, after opening the door. "Are you Yumiko?"

The woman nodded. "Yeah."

"Come in." Arizona says before leading her toward where Riley was asleep.

Yumiko stepped into the house. "Hello." She said to Nyssa.

Nyssa sends her a small smile.

"Here's her bag. I'll get her into her carseat." Arizona says, passing the bag to Yumiko.

"Thanks." Yumiko put the bag over her shoulder.

Arizona was careful as she picked up the sleeping baby, gently placing her in the car seat.

Nyssa looked at Arizona. She walked over, bent down and kissed her daughter's head.

Arizona gently passed the carrier to Yumiko.

"She'll be safe with me, you don't have to worry." Yumiko assured them.

Arizona smiled softly. "You have our numbers in case you need anything."

"I do." Yumiko nodded.

"Thank you for watching her." Arizona said softly.

"Anytime." Yumiko said politely, she brunette left with Riley.

"We should both get ready for work." Arizona said softly.

"There you are, I thought I'd find you up here." Sara said as she sat down beside Felicity on the balcony. "So, how does it feel to be lieutenant?"

Felicity sighed deeply. "I'm not taking the job."

"What? Why not?" Sara asks in confusion.

"Because it's at Station 27." Felicity muttered, pulling her knees up to her chest and wrapping her arms around them. "I applied to be lieutenant here, not at Station 27."
