AN: Hi! guys im really really sorry for not updating sooner. I´ve been really busy with school and other fanfics but here I am! Thank you for reading and thank you for all of the lovely reviews I´ve recieved, they seriously make me really happy.
Mariana´s P.O.V
I open Brandon´s bedroom door feeling nervous and anxious, if he doesn´t know where Callie is then probably no one does. I really hope she didn´t run away because I really think that this is the home she deserves. My situation was similar to her´s and I know it can be really painful and uncomfortable to be moved constantly into new foster homes. I was lucky though, when Stef and Lena started taking care of me and Jesus, we knew that this was going to be our home, we just felt it and I guess that every foster kid get´s that feeling when they should get it.
The room is dark and I know that I probably shouldn´t turn on the light because maybe it´s nothing and maybe Callie is sleeping with Jude but If I go where Jude is I´ll probably wake up the whole household and I really don´t want to cause any drama in the middle of the night. The heck with it, Im turning on the light. I turn the switch up and my mouth drops wide open with surprise. I can´t believe what I´m seeing. Callie is nestled in Brandon´s arms and they are sound asleep. I feel like I should say something but I don´t want to disturb them, especially Callie who looks very calm, I don´t know what the deal is here, Im very confused, but Brandon is a gentlemen and he always looks out for me. Maybe he was worried about Callie and Callie was lonely... Mariana just stop analyzing everything so much. I whisper to myself. At least now I know Callie´s safe.
I turn off the light and walk out slowly and quietly out of Brandon´s room, hoping not to wake them up. As I try to fall asleep again, my stomach flutters with confussion and concern. If Stef or Lena find them like that, they would freak out and who knows what would happen to Callie. I don´t know what to think and I don´t want to stay up all night thinking about what I saw. It´s probably nothing Mariana, I tell myself. I close my eyes and decide I´m going to talk to them tomorrow.
Brandon´s P.O.V
"Shit" I whisper to myself feeling my heart racing extremely fast. My palms are sweaty and my head is burning with confussion and fear. I keep my mouth shut, holding my breath until my bedroom light is turned off. I start breathing normally again when I hear that my door has been shut. My eyes are wide open and I still can´t process what just happened. Someone saw us. I can tell that Callie´s still sleeping and I can hear her breathing rythmically. She´s finally getting a good night sleep without any worries and I won´t take that away from her. I place a soft kiss on the side of her neck and stand up to lock my door, just in case.
I can´t sleep feeling like this. I lay in my bed holding Callie tightly with my eyes wide open while I process what just happened. Great Brandon, now you are going to get Callie kicked out of your house because you asked her to come sleep with you. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I realize that there´s nothing I can do for now but I can´t stop blaming myself. If something happens to Callie it will be all me fault and I don´t think I could live with that. The only thing I can do now is wait and hope that everything will be okay.
I didn´t sleep much last night, I just kept blaming myself for my desperate and childish act, I desperately wanted to keep Callie safe and I couldn´t think of a safer place than my arms. That´s when I realized I´m completely infatuated with her. The noise coming from the kitchen interrupted my thoughts and waked Callie up. She rolled over to face me and smiled widely.
"Hey you" She whispered. I leaned over and kissed her softly.
"Hey" I whisper back.
"I wish I could stay here all day" Callie says.
"Well, I wouldn´t have told you to come sleep with me without figuring it out. Mom's left two hours ago and they probably won't be back until midnight. Some family friends invited them to their wedding somewhere in Vegas and they chose to drive there" I say.
"How come I didn't know this?"
"Well, it was a last minute thing, regardless, it wouldn't be in Vegas if it wasn't. The thing is they left but the twins and Jude are still in the house so we have to be careful. And there's this other thing I think you should know."
"Im listening" Callie said caressing my arm.
"Last night, while we were sleeping, someone opened the door and I think that someone saw us. Please try not to worry, I promise you I'll do everything in my power to keep you safe, It's my fault I never should have told you to come in the first place, not that I didn´t want you to come because I really did, Im really glad you are here and I wish we could do this more often although I know it's very risky. I wasn't thinking properly when I texted you, I didn't think about what could happen if someone caught us. All I was thinking about when I texted you was that I wanted to be with you and now I realize that in a way it was selfish but despite everything I wouldn't take it back. I just wish I was a little more precautious." I explain to her.
Callie sighs and closes her eyes and I can sense that she's worried. "It'll all be okay, I promise I won't let anything happen to you" I say caressing her hand.
"Let's go downstairs and trust me, I will know who was the one who saw us just by how that person starts to look at me" Callie says standing up. "Wait, what time is it?" She asks.
"8 am" I reply. "Why?"
"I have to get back to my bed before Mariana wakes up. Thank God she sleeps in on Saturdays. Brandon, we'll figure it out, worrying is useless, what's done is done."
"Im going to figure something out" I say.
"Do you think Stef or Lena where the one's who saw us?" Callie asks.
"I don't know. I wish I knew something" I reply.
I stand up, walk over to where she is and grab her hand. "Go, it'll be fine. We'll see what we can do" I say.
"For the record, I don't regret it either" She whispers into my ear, making me ache for the taste of her lips.
She lets go of my hand and starts walking out of my room making almost no sound.
I know this is short but I felt like I needed to publish something fast because I haven't updated this fic in weeks. I was really busy and I've been dealing with a bunch of stuff lately but I promise I'll get back on track. Thank you for reading, feedback really helps so thank you 3
