Callie borrowed Marianas suitcase that was too 'Mariana' for Callie, but right now, she didn't care. As soon she had finished breakfast, she started to pack. She had no idea when they were supposed to leave and she was too afraid to ask.
Callie knew a whole summer away would be a lot of clothes. And not having so many, she took the whole pile of shorts, dresses and shirts in on grip and threw it in the case. She took her bikinis too, even if she knew that she wouldn't be swimming. Callie also took makeup, underwear, pyjamas and more things that would be needed.
As Callie managed to sit on the suitcase forcing it to zip it, she breathed out relieved for finally making it. She still couldn't believe it. That she would be spending the summer with Brandon. No, not with Brandon.
She would be spending the summer, watching after Brandon.
Callie could already feeling herself getting a headache of the loud music that would be playing and how she would be running after Brandon like a mother running after her kid on a tivoli.
She could already feel the smell of alcohol and liquid that would make her head dizzy as she was trying to calm the place down. Callie knew it would be like that.
I mean, Brandon looked like he had been partying in two year straight, when he only came home from one.
Someone knocked on the door and soon, Stef and Lena opened up.
" Hey you. "
" Hey. " Callie said with a smile.
" We just wanted to say, " They both sat on the same bed as Callie and looked at her.
" How proud we are of having such a nice daugher, for agreeing on looking out for her brother."
" Even if you didn't have such a big vote in it. "
Callie smiled through the uncomfortable feeling of having Brandon called as a brother.
" I already told you, it's okey. " Callie said, trying to get out a laugh.
" I didn't have anything planned this summer anyways, and, maybe I can also have fun. " Callie said like it was a question.
" Of course sweetheart. But, just be careful. " Lena said with a smile.
Callie smiled back. Of course she wouldn't partying, the only reason she said it was because it would tense down moms a little.
And it seems it working.
When Callie saw a taxi stopping at the driveway, she suddenly stood up, actually starts to thinking.
You are going to sit in that cab with Brandon. Brandon!
The guy, the brother, you haven't talk with in months.
You are going to spend the summer with him. The whole Summer!
The panic starts to creep up on her and she wants to back out now, but moms already noticed the taxi and Lena started to call Brandon down stairs.
Stef came to me, putting her arm around Callies shoulders,
" Thanks again sweetheart. " She said with a smile. " Have fun love. "
" Thanks. " Callie said, giving Stef a hug.
Even if she had to spend the summer with someone who hated her, she still felt it was worth it. Because when Stef give Callie that smile, showing how thankful she is for having a calm summer alone with Lena, it was definitely worth it.
Brandon's footstep was heard from the stairs.
He had sunglasses on with a T-shirt and shorts.
" Brandon, be careful- " Lena started but he was already out the door.
" Won't even say goodbye. " Stef whispered and sighed.
" Don't think about it. Just have fun this summer. " Callie said with a smile.
She said goodbye to Lena too before entering out the house. Callie already saw Brandon sitting in the front, waiting for her to sit in the back.
She knew that Brandons suitcase was in the back truck, and the driver had taken his bag for him to place it there.
Callie opened the car door and heard how the driver had already started a conversation with Brandon.
" E-excuse me? Should I put the bag in the back or should I place it next to me? " Callie asked nervously.
" Oh, I'm so sorry! " The driver said with a accent. " No, of course I put in the back. " He got out of the car to take Callie's back as Callie nervously didn't know if she should wait for the man, or sit in the car.
When the young man was done he opened up the door for Callie who whispered a thank you with a smile as she sat down in the car. Soon the young driver sat in the front and started the car.
" So, keep going. " Brandon said with a smile.
" So, I came to America after I had convinced my mother who is a, bitch, literally. "
Brandon laughed at the driver's comment. Callie must have interrupted them when she had come with her bag, because, she didn't understand full of the drivers story, but she still listened.
" So, when I came to this place, I immediately meet this girl, and we got together and we got kids, two girls in the age of 14 and 16. And they are really into you. "
" Really? " Brandon asked with happiness in his eyes.
" Yeah, they never shut up. "
As the two of them laugh, Callie kept staring at Brandon.
The way he talked, the way he looked at the man with happiness, the way he smiled.
That was Brandon. The Brandon she missed.
And that the Brandon still was there, made Callie's heart flutter.
" Well, is it okay to write them an autograph? " Brandon asked and the driver lit up in a second. Brandon borrowed a pen from the driver as he asked for the girls name and wrote his.
" So, is the lady there your girlfriend? "
Callie and Brandon both froze when they heard the question.
Like Brandon had forgot Callie in the back, he suddenly became new Brandon.
" No, she is my sister. " He whispered with a disgusted voice as Callie tried to hold in the tears.
The driver seemed to feel the tense air, so he moved on with another question.
As the driver kept talking with Brandon, and Brandon suddenly was back to the one Callie loved, Callie watched out the window, and realized that this trip would be really bad.
Callie suddenly woke up from her sleep. She recognized that she was sitting in a taxi, with Brandon in the front seat together with the young driver, who had put some music from his home land and Brandon was listening with focus with a pen and a block in his hand, probably getting some inspiration from the odd, but beautiful, music to a new song.
Callie's mind started to clear up and she sighed quietly when she realized what had happened only this morning.
She looked out and recognized that the sun was almost down, and her stomach was screaming that breakfast wasn't enough.
" Here we are. " The driver said, that makes me look up.
Callie almost choke on the air she was breathing.
That was not just a cabin. You could definitely see that immediately with gates a few meter up, and through the gates, there was a long walk up to a hill were the only cabin, house, were. The gates suddenly opened and we were getting closer. The car stops and I can't believe what I'm seeing.
That is a really beautiful cabin. With the only white cabin in centrum around trees and a swimming pool right in front of it, makes Callie want to live here forever.
Brandon thanks the driver and tip him before getting out of the car. Callie thank the driver too and walk out from the taxi, feeling the hot summer air even this late of hour.
The taxi drives away, leaving only her and Brandon alone with the cabin who has to be bigger than half the size of our house.
" Good thing you slept. " Brandon suddenly says, making me turn my head to face him.
" Why? " Callie ask, surprised that he finally talks to her. A big evil grin formed on his lips.
" Because we're having a party. " He turns to her. " And my babysitter has to be up and look out for me. " He gives away a small laugh that was nothing but funny, just a scary chuckle.
" It will be a long, long night. " He whispers to her angry before turning around to the cabin-house.
Callie's heart was beating more than ever and she was nothing but thankful that he didn't go further with his scary talking. Callie realized that she had dropped her bag in her hand, and leans down to pick it up again.
" Party? " Callie whispers to herself . " We just got here. "
