Something New

Chapter 9

AN: First off thank you for reading my story. I didn't get any reviews for the last chapter. I'm sorry if you didn't like it. I don't own the Fosters or Good Trouble. Sorry for any mistakes.

Today Peyton is two months old. The last two months have been trying to say the least for the new parents. Jamie has been working a lot to catch up from when he was gone for three weeks. Peyton is getting better at sleeping at night but still wakes up a couple of times. Since Jamie has been working so much Callie as been getting up most of the time with Peyton. Peyton is getting to be a daddy's girl and when she is super cranky Jamie is the only one she wants. Jamie and Callie have been fighting more than what she would like Callie blames lack of sleep and they haven't had anytime to their selves since Peyton was born. Callie is back to work fulltime. Which she isn't looking forward to leaving her baby girl for so long. They found a wonderful older lady to watch Peyton while they are at work. Callie doesn't want to leave her but she is looking forward to being around adults again.

Last weekend was Father's day. They spent the day with Jamie's family at their country club. While the guys played golf the girls enjoyed the poolside cabaña. Diana got to spend the day with Peyton. She hadn't seen her in a couple of weeks. After the guys got done they joined the girls at the pool. Which is when Amber and her family showed up. But it was Jamie's day so she wasn't going to make a seen. That evening Mariana volunteered to babysit so we could go have a nice dinner together. Jamie was surprised when Callie asked him to stop at the drug store on their way home. That was the first time they had sex since Peyton was born.

On Wednesday morning Callie got out of court early so she thought she would take Jamie lunch to surprise him. Callie ordered his favorite from their lunch place before heading up to Jamie's office. His sectary Mrs. Sanders greets Callie and asks about Peyton. As she is visiting with her Callie sees Jamie in his office with Amber. Callie groans. "I don't know why He hired her. She is a pain in the ass." Mrs. Sanders tells Callie. "He hired her? How long has she worked here?" Callie asks. "Yes he did. She has been here since Jamie came back to work." Callie can tell they are flirting and Amber is definitely to close to him for her liking. "Thank you Mrs. Sanders." She walks into his office and Jamie looks like a kid who got caught with his hand in a cookie jar. "Hey Cal…What are you doing here? I thought you had court this morning?" Jamie says and Amber leaves his office smirking. "See you later Jamie." Callie rolls her eyes. "I thought I would bring you lunch since we got out early… Sorry if interrupted your meeting…" Jamie sighs. "Callie it's not what it looks like." Callie shakes her head. "Whatever Jamie. Will you be working late tonight?" Jamie shakes his head no. "Good our daughter misses her daddy." Callie leaves his lunch and walks out. Jamie doesn't go after her he doesn't want to cause a seen at work.

Callie goes back to work for a few more a hours before going home. She sees Jamie's car in the driveway. She goes in side she smiles when she sees Peyton smiling and cooing at her daddy. Callie doesn't say a word to Jamie she goes to their room and changes then take Peyton from Jamie. "Hi sweet pea. Mommy missed to so much." She says and Peyton smiles at her. Peyton roots around. Callie feeds her and burps her when she is done. Then she puts her on her play mat. "So are you just going to ignore me now." Callie glares at Jamie. "No I was spend some time with my daughter." Callie sits on the couch away from Jamie. "Why didn't you tell me she was working with you now?" Callie asks to see if he tells her the truth. "I didn't want you to freak out. She started when I was on leave." Callie can't believe he is lying to her. Jamie sees the hurt on her face. "Just answer me one thing." Jamie swallows. "Okay…" Callie is trying very hard not cry. "All these late nights lately. Was she there with you? Did anything happen?" Jamie looks at her with tears in his eyes. "First off I love you Callie I would never cheat on you. Yes she was there. She did kiss me the other night. But I pushed her off…" Callie lets a few tears fall. "So while I was here taking care of our two month old, you were alone with your ex that her goal in life is to get you back and you expect to believe that all you did was kiss. Oh by the way I know you hired her…" Callie can't even look at Jamie right now.

Peyton can feel the tension in the room and starts to cry. Callie picks her up and goes into the nursery. "Cal you have to believe me nothing happened." Callie doesn't look up at him. "So is she the reason that you won't move to San Diego for my job offer?" He shakes his head. "No, I don't want to move because I'm fixing to make partner and I would have to start all over again at the bottom. Besides you have had other job offers here." Callie kisses Peyton's head before putting her in the crib. She turns on the baby monitor on and closes the door behind her. "So my dreams and career don't mean anything?" Jamie tries to hug her but she pulls away. "That's not what I meant Callie." Callie completely looses it. "I just don't understand why you would hire her after the crap she has pulled. And then lie to me about it. I can't even look at you right now. Just go if you want her so much. We don't want you here." Jamie sighs. "Fine. If that's what you want." Jamie goes into their room and grabs some of his things. Callie is crying on the couch. After he goes into Peyton's room. "I'm sorry baby girl. Daddy is going way for a little while. Be a good girl for her. I love you to the moon and back." He comes out. "Don't worry I won't keep her from you… We will work something out." Callie states as she wipes her tears away. "I'm sorry. Call me if you need anything not just for Pey… I love you so much Cal…"

So soon as Jamie leave Callie can't stop the tears from falling. She doesn't want to be a lone she grabs her phone and texts Mariana.

Hey are you busy? I need my sister. –Cal

No. I was just going to leave work. I will head over. What's wrong? –Mar

Me and Jamie broke up… -Cal

OMG. I will be there soon. –Mar

It doesn't take very long before Mariana gets to Callie's. Mariana hugs Callie as soon as she opens the door. "What the hell happened?" She asks as the sit on the couch. "I went to surprise him for lunch today and found Amber in his office and that she works with him. His secretary told me he hired her when he went back to work. They were flirting and sitting way to close. Then he lied to me about everything. When I told him that I knew he hired her he told me that she kissed him. Why lie to me if they just work together. Not to mention he has been working late with her the last couple of weeks…" Callie says. "Wow. I'm so sorry Cal. You know I'm going to be honest and tell you like it is. I honestly don't think he cheated on you besides the kiss. Can tell you I know where he was three of those nights. But If I tell you have to swear to go you will not tell him I told you." Callie nods. "Okay one of those nights he was with me. We went shopping for you. One night he was with Jude and one he was with moms…" Callie is exhausted and honestly not thinking right at the moment. "What? Why would he lie to me about that?" Mariana rolls her eye. "He wanted to surprise you Callie. I helped him pick out a ring…" Callie just looks at Mariana.

Callie shakes her head trying to wrap her mind around everything. "It's not just the Amber thing. I got an amazing job offer from the ACLU in San Diego and he won't even consider moving. What I'm supposed to do?" Mariana sighs. "Cal I can't tell you want to do. But I do know he loves you and Peyton so much." Callie nods. "I could really use a drink right now…" They both laugh.

Three weeks later

It's been three weeks since Callie broke up with Jamie. Jamie has been over a few times to see Peyton. Callie usually goes over to the Coterie while he is with Peyton. They both are miserable with out each other but they are too stubborn to let the other one know. Today is her day off, which is a good thing. Peyton was up most of the night and her mom is supposed to come up for the weekend. Callie had fallen a sleep on the couch after she got Peyton down for her morning nap. Two hours later Callie wakes up to a screaming Peyton. This was cry was different Callie could tell there was something wrong. She goes to get her and she is burning up. "It's okay mommy's got you." Callie says as Callie takes Peyton's temperature. It's 102.8 Callie starts to panic. "I know this is yucky but it will make you feel better." Callie says as she gives her some medicine. Peyton spits some of the medicine out and cries. "I'm sorry baby but we are going to the ER." Callie puts Peyton in her car seat and grabs her diaper bag and purse. Callie tries to call Jamie but it goes strait to voice mail. She leaves him a message that she is taking Peyton in and to please call her back.

Callie calls Stef as she drives to the hospital. She is almost to LA and will head to the hospital. Once she gets there and checks in she calls Jamie's office. His secretary tells her that he is in court today but she would make sure she would tell him when he comes back to the office. Stef gets there before they call Peyton's name. "Hi mom." Stef hugs her and takes Peyton from her. "Hi Cal. Hi sweetie. Oh you are burning up…" Stef actually gets Peyton to calm down. "She spit the medicine out so I wasn't sure what to do." Stef nod. "You did the right thing." They call her back and do all her vitals and take her temp again. It actually has gone up to 103.2. They give her some more medicine and the doctor comes in a little while later. Callie is thankful that it is just an ear infection and soon as her fever goes down they can go home.

Stef is proud of Callie she is a wonderful mom and even when she thinks she is doing everything wrong. Once they get home Jamie finally calls.

"Hey Cal sorry my phone died when I was in court. How is Pey doing are you still at the hospital?" Callie is still mad at him but she puts it a side for her daughter.

"Hey, it's okay it's just a ear infection. But I couldn't get her fever down because she spit the medicine out. We just got home and Peyton is finally eating." Callie can hear the worry in his voice.

Jamie is relieved that Peyton is okay. "Good I was worried that it was something worse. Is it okay if I come over after I get off?"

"Sure but Stef is here so you might have to fight her for Pey."

Stef rolls her eyes. She isn't Jamie's biggest fan right at the moment. But he is Peyton's dad and is glad he still wants to be there for her.

"Okay see you later." They hang up. Callie tells Stef that Jamie is coming over later to see Peyton.

There is a knock at the door. Callie gives Peyton to Stef so she can burp her while she goes to the door. "Are you Callie Adams Foster?" The guy asks. "Yes that's me." He hands her an envelope. "You have been served." Callie shuts the door and opens the Envelope and she can't believe what she is reading. She starts to shake. "Cal what's wrong?"

AN: Okay please don't hate me. I promise it will work out and get better for Callie and Jamie. Please Review
