"Sorry Karev I'm gonna need your esophageal atresia." Arizona says to Alex as I round the corner, he hands her his charts "and you have a pyloric stenosis." She says "I might need that one too." Alex is completely confused as Arizona takes his things. "What are you.... why?" He asks and I come over to them "cause we have a prospective Peds fellow coming in today, and she's being courted by the big guns, USc, Johns Hopkins, CHOP, and Hunt asked us to help to make sure she got a red carpet tour, and that incudes scrubbing in on a couple of surgeries."
Alex seems caught off guard by this. Arizona and I start walking away when he says "wait. You're already meeting people for the fellowship?" We stop and turn around to look at him and Arizona answers "well, it's a little early, but when someone with Polly Preston's resume wants observe in your hospital you make time." I flash him a smile before walking away.
"So." I say as we make for the elevator "how many surgeries have we got today?". Arizona looks down at the charts she has collected "including these two." She replies "7." I smile and press the button for the level we need "good, we need to impress this girl."

When we finally meet up with Polly, Callie comes over to us "hey." I smile brightly. "Hey yourself." I answer and Arizona turns around "oh hey, Dr Torres." She says the last part as though there is a different meaning behind it. "I'm sorry." Callie says with a concerned look on her face "I panicked. I didn't mean to introduce you as Dr Robbins. But I guess I didn't know how to say, 'guess what, Mama O'Malley, I'm into girls now and this is my wife."
I let out a long breath and step away, this conversation is clearly not meant for my ears. I clear my throat "I'm gonna show Polly the nuclear protein machines." and we make a quick escape.
"What was that about?" She asks as we turn to corner away from Robbins and Torres. I shake my head and push open a door "it's a very complicated, very long story. If you decide to do your fellowship with us I'll tell you about it." We both laugh.

Climbing into bed that night Alex has a pout on his face "what's wrong?" I ask pulling the duvet up over my body. "Are you going to hire Polly?" He asks "for the Peds Fellowship." I sigh and look over at him. "She is being courted by hospitals far better than ours." I say resting on my elbow "and honestly, me and Arizona spoke about it. She seems like a bit of a snob."
We both start laughing and Alex pulls me into his side, kissing the top of my forehead. "So that means the job is mine right?" He says confidently and I snort, hitting him on the chest lightly "you're sill gonna have some competition, don't think you'll be getting off that lightly." Alex chuckles and our fingers interlock gently.
