Chapter 10

3pm

Callie waved goodbye to Jake. She walked back inside the house. She saw Jude standing at the stairs.

"Why is he here?" Jude yelled

"Jude it's alright" Callie said

"No he screwed everything up. It's his fault Ryan and Aeron is dead" Jude yelled

"Jude" Callie yelled back. She was about to yell more but then she stopped her self. She never yelled at Jude like this before. Jude looked upset and scared of her.

"You always do this Callie. For once can you think about how this affects the family. If he gets drunk again God knows what will happen. He might burn this whole fricken place down" Jude yelled through his tears

"Whoa whoa. What's going on?" Stef asked. Walking to the siblings who were fighting. The other teenagers went out of there rooms and came to see Jude and Callie fighting. It was rare. Jesus was more interested in the fight rather than being concerned.

"Jude" Callie yelled. "You don't why to yell at me because I'm meeting up with Jake"

"I have my rights to yell at you. Your meeting up with someone who killed our foster brothers" Jude yelled. Stef,Lena Brandon and Jesus seemed shocked at the statement Jude just made. Mariana was shocked that Jude said that out loud.

"Jude. Jake isn't your problem. You live with the fosters now. You are there child. Jake is my problem" Callie yelled back.

"You are going to get adopted by Stef and Lena Callie" Jude yelled.

"No I can't" Callie yelled. She shocked everyone in the house.

"Callie" Stef and Lena whispered

"What do you mean by you can't?" Jude yelled. "You can't? Or you don't want to?"

"Jude do you realise what you just said to me before. You basically told them that Jakes a murderer" Callie yelled.

"Jake is a murderer. Why can't we tell them what happened? You told me we didn't have to keep secrets" Jude yelled.

"I meant that you didn't have to keep secrets. Your adopted. You can tell them anything that happened and they can't throw you out of the house. If you tell them everything that happened than I can't live here anymore" Callie yelled

"Honey nothing you say or do will ever make us want to throw you out. We will always want you because we love you " Stef said

"Yeh you say that now" Callie whispered.

"Why can't you admit that you have a family that wants you?" Jude yelled

"Jude let me summarise everything you just said to me. Jake killed Aeron and Ryan because he got drunk" Callie yelled. Jude looked confused. "You said that in front of a cop" Callie yelled out. Reality hit Jude. Jude tears flowed down his face. Jude's eyes didn't contain anger not hatred. It contained sadness, guilt and fear.

Stef took a deep breathe in and thought this whole thing over.

"I won't tell anybody this" Stef said quietly. "You kids are more important than my job"

Callie shook her head. She knew that she had to escape. She couldn't live here anymore it was to unsafe. Jude was right. If Callie met up with Jake that would cause drama and danger to the family. Callie room s breathe in. She knew she had to escape. Running away wasn't an option so she decided the second option. Getting kicked out.

"Your job as a police is to follow the stupid law Stef. You can't just say you won't tell anyone. The problem with all polices is that they have to follow the law no matter what" Callie yelled

"That's not true. I am a mother first and then a cop" Stef said

"Callie stop this. We can tell them everything Callie. She won't go to the police about it. She will be on our side" Jude yelled back.

"Jude you don't get it. I can't live under the same roof with a cop" Callie yelled

"Than leave" Jesus yelled. He was getting tired of Callie's attitude. But he regretted it the second he said it. "Callie I didn't meant it"

Callie just stood there. "I should be happy. I can leave now and no one should care" Callie thought. Callie went to the coat rack and grabbed her jacket. She still held the paper in her hand. She walked over to Jude and handed him the paper.

"I love you" Callie whispered.

"Callie get back here" Stef yelled. When Callie slammed the door shut. She ran as fast as she could. She could hear Stef calling out her name.

"Stef she just needs time to cool down" Lena said. Jude ran out of the house. He looked for any sign of Callie.

"This is all my fault" Jude whispered. Stef went over to Jude and hugged him.

"No Jude this is nobodies fault" Stef whispered. She kissed Jude on the forehead and allowed him to sob in her arms.

Callie ran and ran. She arrived at the morgensterns house. She knocked on the door. And Neil opened the door. She ran into his arms and cried. She let all her emotions out. Neil hugged her and he didn't want to let go. After what seems like hours. She calmed down and told them what happened.

"I'm sorry sweetie but you can stay here" Marie said

"Mum! What the hell?" Matt yelled

"You didn't let me finish. Callie I know you think that your keeping your new family safe but your not. I know how your mums feel. They feel worried and scared because they don't know what going on. They don't know where you are and try don't know what's happening to you. Last year you did the most dumbest thing Callie and because of that I lost you" Maria said

Flashback

"Jude please forgive me" Callie whispered in Jude's ear.

"Calle what are you doing?" Jude asked. He saw his sister walk over to the police. The police and Callie was talking but then a couple seconds after the police was putting cuffs on Callie.

"Callie" Jude yelled.

1 month later

"I'm so sorry David" Maria whispered to her husband.

"How could they cut me off?" David sobbed. "They're going to take the kids away from us"

"We can't let that happen" Marie said

"What else are we going to do? We can't pay for the mortgage and bills. We can barley pay for food on the table" David yelled.

"What do we do? Callie was sent to another foster home away from her little brother to protect our kids. If we let cps take them away from us we can't get Callie back and we will also loose our kids" Marie yelled in frustration. "We're living in a house which can barely fit our kids"

"I will gladly help" Neil said walking to ten from the lounge room. They now lived in a small one story house. Him and the others had heard what happened.

"We don't want to use you" Maria said in a soft voice

"I still have a roof over my head. You guys can stay at my place. My parents wouldn't mind not would they care" Neil stated.

"Thank you" David said.

2 months later.

"I'm sorry your fostering licence is expired" The social worker of the fostered children said.

"I need

To follow me. Please pack up. You have 10 minutes" The social worker said emotionlessly

"Please. Please don't take them away. I need a bit more time. Please" Marie cried out. She begged and begged. The teenagers started to cry.

"Please don't" Maria sobbed harder. She cried. The teenagers had their bags packed. Marie and David hugged their kids. They both were sobbing.

"I'm so sorry" David chocked out

"We will find you no matter what" Maria whispered.
