The events that had just transpired up in their room had Lenas mind going crazy. Lena had imagined the worse that could have happened to Rylan in the Olmstead house, but nothing like being branded was what ran through her mind. Lena couldn't imagine being stuck with a burn on the skin that someone had intentionally put there. A horrible reminder of something that they wanted to forget now marred the skin of two of her 6 children and it horrified her.
Lena shook her head and went back to eating her sandwich that her wife had so kindly made for her, herself, and the two girls.
Stefs thoughts were the same as that of her wifes. The two womens thoughts were on the same wave length and thats why they were such a perfect match.
The one thing on both womens minds as they watched their youngest go about eating, was that in spite of everything that has happened to her, the little girl has not got one ounce of hate in her bones. At only 7 the little girl has experienced and seen things that no 7 year old or anyone for that matter should see and yet she has a heart of gold and can see the best of everything.
"More?" Rylans voice piped up breaking both womens thoughts and zoning them back into the real world.
"Wow, you all finished Mini. You were hungry, where do put it?" Stef said tickling Minis stomach causing the little girl to laugh and giggle. Lena chuckled and grabbed Rylans plate and made her another sandwich. Callie stood up and grabbed her plate aswell putting it in the sink.
"How are you sweetie? Really?" Lena decided to ask while Stef and Rylan were busy having tickle wars.
"I don't know really. It just feel surreal. That it wasn't just me, that she could be so happy after everything she has seen and been through." Lena nodded and wrapped an arm around Callies waist bringing her into a side hug.
"We will deal with everything, you and her are not alone, we will sort it all out and do anything to get the justice that you two deserve, I promise you that baby." Callie nodded and kissed Lenas cheek.
"I love you Mama." Callie whispered.
"LOVE MAMA." Rylan yelled out, obviously hearing Callie, even though she had whispered. Lena, Stef and Callie all burst out laughing at the little girl.
"Mama loves you too baby girl." Lena walked over and kissed Rylans head and placed the sandwich down in front of the little blonde before taking a seat back at her spot to finish her own sandwich.
"What about me? Am I not loved?" Stef faked being hurt and Rylans eyes went wide, not knowing that Stef was Joking at all.
"No, no, no, Love Mommy." Rylan wrapped her arms around Stef, she didn't want to upset Stef.
"I love you too baby girl." Stef chuckled as she kissed Rylans cheek and then got her to continue eating her lunch.
"Soo, when you girls have finished your lunch, how about we go shopping for a bunk so Rylan will finally get her own bed." Stef announced as she placed her plate in the sink to wash later with the others.
"Sounds good. Im just going to go make a phone call and you need to make one aswell." Lena said as she looked at Stef. Lena had to go phone Bill about an adoption and Stef had to call work to inform them that they have a new case, Liam olmstead.
Both women grabbed their phones and headed off to make their calls while Callie sat with Rylan while she ate her lunch.

"This one?" Lena pointed out as she, Stef, Callie and Mini looked for a bunkbed for the girls room in a massive warehouse shop.
"Mama, we need a white one to match in with Marianas bed, we don't want it to look uneven." Stef chuckled as her wife and eldest daughter talked.
"Mommy, Play?" Stef looked at Mini and noticed her pointing to a bunch of stuffed animals in a model room with a play house. Looking carefully at it, Stef then nodded.
"Ok, but don't wander off sweets." Rylan nodded and headed over towards the playhouse, she really didn't care about picking beds but she did when it came to picking out the linen.
"What about this one?" Stef said eyeing a bed that she knew Callie would love and it fit perfectly with Marianas bed. Callie spun around hearing her mothers voice and smiled.
"Good pick Mom. Thats the one." Callie traced over the white bars of the bed frame. It was a simple bed and white. I had white frame with parts of the frame shaped into a picture of a bird. It wasn't too girly and thats what both of the occupants wanted.
"Alright Ill go get the sales lady to ring it up and then we can look at the bedding. Why don't you go get Mini while Mom and I go over there?" Callie nodded at her mothers before heading off to find her little sister.
"Mini, moms want to go look at the bedding now, are you ready to go?" Callie could hear her sister giggling and wondered what she was laughing at. Peeking her head in the tent she spotted a little blonde, but the thing was, this little blonde wasn't her sister at all.
"Hi." The little girl smiled and Callie smiled back, she had to be nice but she was panicking when she didn't see her sister. Callie said goodbye and then looked around for another blonde child that could be her sister. She couldn't go through her sister being missing again.
"Callie!" Callie swung around on her spot, her eyes landed on her sister on top of a bunk bed. Callies heart slowed down a little after finding her sister but it sped up a little as she watched in slow motion her sister miss a step and fall.
"MINI!" Callie yelled an bolted over to her sister, who landed face first onto the floor. Having heard their eldest daughter scream their youngest daughters name, both Lena and Stef were racing over to Mini.
When Callie got to Mini, she was sitting on her knees. As Callie picked her up she couldn't see any broken bones but when Mini looked up their was blood coming from her lip and she had a nasty carpet burn on her cheek.
"Rylan!" Lena was freaking out, the scream that came from her daughter frightened her to no end. Noticing the blood coming from the little girls mouth and the carpet burn on the cheek relaxed her a little bit knowing it wasn't anything too serious.
"Mama." Rylan cried reaching out for her mother. Lena grabbed her baby girl and held her tightly to her chest, trying to calm her own breathing down along with calming the child to stop her sobbing.
"Oh my baby, what are we going to do with you." Stef said rubbing the little girls back before wrapping her arms around her eldest daughter.
"Id say that we are done here." Callie whispered feeling exhausted, earning a nod from her mothers.
"Im glad we chose these then." Stef announced as held out the linen that Lena and her had chosen knowing there girls would like them, if not they could go choose their own another day.
"They are perfect mom, thats what we would have chosen anyway." Callie smiled and followed her mothers to the check out to pay for their items.
"Alright, to the doctors we go to get this one checked out." Callie and Lena nodded, knowing that they had to at least make sure there was not internal injuries on the brain etc.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Ok, Miss Rylan here will be fine in a day or two. Shes just got that nasty carpet burn and she just split her lip a little, it wont require stitches as it is only small. It will heal itself. No internal injuries. You are a lucky girl." The doctor smiled at Rylan handing her a lollipop.
"Thank you doctor." Lena smiled and kissed Rylan on her head.
"Put this cream on her cheek in the morning after a bath, it will help with the healing and wont leave a scar." The doctor handed the cream to Stef and with saying goodbye the four of them headed out.
"Look Callie, lollipop." Rylan announced all happy as she sucked on it. Callie chuckled as Rylan was buckled into her seat.
"Between you and Jesus, the doctors wont go bored." Stef chuckled at her own joke as she left the hospital parking lot. Lena and Callie just rolled their eyes and then laughed at each other.

"Mama, Mom, Callie, Mini we are home." Mariana called as she and Brandon walked through the door.
"Upstairs!" Callie called letting her brother and sister know where they were. Footsteps were heard on the stairs as the two teenagers headed up them, letting Callie, Mini and the moms know that they had heard.
"What happened to her face and Really that cover?" Mariana looked from her moms to Mini and then back again before rolling her eyes.
"My Beeeeee bed." Mini squealed as she rolled all over her bed causing everyone to laugh. Stef had chosen a light purple and white bed spread for Callie while Rylans was one of her favourite things in the world, a transformers bed spread. The bed spread was the odd one out in the entire room, but if thats all it took to make the little girl happy to sleep in this room then sure enough she was going to have it.
"She fell off a bunk at the shops and receive a small split lip and a carpet burn. She should be fine. As for the bed spread, I chose that thank you. I knew Mini would love it." Lena informed the kids sticking her tongue out at the kids.
"Looks cool Mini." Brandon and Mariana both commented as they looked on smiling. Stef leant over and began to tickle Rylan, causing a loud squeal to come out of the small body of the child in the room.
"Woah Woah Woah, whats all the commotion in here?" Jesus said as he and Jude now entered the room after being gone most of the day, skateboarding.
"Woah, what happened to her face?" Jude said coming in and taking a seat on the bottom bunk where Mini and Stef were laying. Stef informed them on what had happened and Jesus high fived Mini, saying that she was such a tough sister.
"Alright, everyone down stairs. We are having home made pizzas, meaning family cooking time." Lena announced, Jesus was the first one to shout, saying yes really loud before bolting down the stairs. Brandon, Jude and Mariana were next laughing at their brothers antics as they followed behind him.
Stef and Lena looked at Rylan and Callie with raised eyebrows, getting the hint, Callie scooped Rylan up making the little girl squeal out as the two of them headed down to join the siblings.
With the kids down stairs,Stef moved closer to her wife and wrapped both her hands around her waist so their chests were touching.
"Feels like forever since we've had our bed to ourselves. I can't wait to christen it again." Stef wiggled her eyebrows and placed a kiss to Lenas lips. Lena chuckled and pushed Stef towards the door and then swatting her ass when Stef started walking.
"Thats if we don't get a visitor, after all it will be her first night in a new bed." Lena said earning a glare from her wife.
"You take all the fun out of everything." Stef said as she pouted down the stairs. Lena chuckled and shook her head before following her wife down.

"Mini, the flour goes in the dough, not on your face." Callie chuckled wiping the flour off of the young blondes face.
"Im a ghost. White ghost." The kids chuckled and laughed. How someone so innocent could make a lot of mess and be so cute was beyond them.
"Brandon look, hand." Mini called out. Brandon looked over from chopping up the meat to go on the pizzas to look at his sister. He shook his head seeing that she had dipped her hand in the flour and splatted it on her shirt and face making perfect hand prints.
"Cal you were suppose to help her and watch her." Brandon said highly amused, Callie rolled her eyes but then laughed as Brandon got a hand to the face as he stepped closer. The hand belonging to Miss Rylan was also covered in flour, making a mini sized flour print onto the oldest Adams-Foster childs cheek.
"Brandon you look funny." Mini says as she giggles and puts her hand back into the flour, waiting to claim her next victim.
"Mommy, look hands." Rylan calls out as Stef and Lena finally walk into the kitchen to help the kids. Stef chuckled along with Lena at the sight of the young girl covered in flour and also the small handprint on Brandons cheek.
"Wow, looks like you have been having fun." Mini smiled a cheeky grin and nodded as Stef kissed her on the temple. That was Minis time to strike as she slapped her hand on Stefs cheek, leaving a small hand print. Stef was shocked as she looked at the little girl, this caused everyone including Stef to burst out laughing.
This means war! Stef thought as she looked around at her kids and laughing wife.
"Oh no you don't, don't even thing about it Stefanie Marie Foster." Lena said giving her wife a glare, knowing full well what Stef had planned. Stef pouted and Lena nodded then smirked in achievement.
Everyone got back to their jobs. Brandon cutting meats, Mariana and Jesus cutting vegetables, Callie and Mini making dough with the help of Stef and Lena turning the oven on and getting out the sauce and plates.
Lena was just pulling out the last tray for the pizza to go on when she feels a slap to her bottom. She stands up and glares at Stef playfully while Stef just kisses her cheek and goes back to the dough. Stef 1 – Lena 1 Stef thought smirking.
"Mama, handprint." Rylan announced laughing as Lena turned back to what she was doing. Hearing her daughter call her Lena turns around to see smirks on all of her kids faces and a pleased look on her wifes face.
"You didn't!" Lena looked at her smirking wife and then took a look at her bottom from the side. She could just make out the hand mark from her angle, the handmark of her wifes on her bottom.
"Stef!" Lena screeched playfully stalking over to Stef, Stef knowing better moved backwards away from her wife still smirking at her achievement. All the kids were laughing as they watched their mothers have a staring competition, waiting to see what was going to happen next between their moms.
From the corner of her eye Lena saw the flour and in a quick motion flung a handful of flour straight into Stefs face. Shock again filled Stefs face and before she could react, mini hand flung a pile of flour onto Lenas face.
"FOOD FIGHT!" Jesus called out. Before either mom had a chance to stop him throwing the capsicum, it had hit Callie In the back of the head. She retaliated with bits of the dough and before anyone knew it, there was dough and pizza toppings flying in every direction.
"OK ENOUGH." Stef yelled, immediately hands stopped mid throw as the kids looked at their mothers.
"I think thats enough fun. We were suppose to make dinner with this but it looks like we are ordering pizza again." Lena said chuckling as she took in the mess of her kitchen.
"Alright troops, upstairs and get cleaned then you can come down here and help clean up while we wait for the pizza to get here." Stef ordered, and one by one the kids rushed upstairs to go get cleaned up, leaving the moms alone downstairs.
"Well, least they had fun and we bonded." Stef chuckled out as Lena gave a shake of the head but a smile was on her face.
"On a serious note, at least we know that Rylan fits in so well here with us and especially the kids." Lena voiced as she moved towards Stef and wrapped her arms around her wife and connected her lips to hers.
"Bill is already starting the process." Giving a nod, both mothers began to clean the kitchen while they waited for their turns up in the showers.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
All the excitement of dinner making had worn the kids out. The family had cleaned up the kitchen and then sat down to watch a movie, half way through nearly every kid was out like a light.
Mini and Callie were tucked into their new beds for the night and the moms were hoping the youngest would sleep alright in her new bed, in the girls room.
It had been 4 hours before Mini woke and couldn't get back to sleep. They keep scaring her, her dreams wont let her sleep. Mini slowly creeps out of the room she shares with Mari and Callie. Being extremely quiet and carefull she walks over to Stef and Lenas room.
Mini stands out the front of Lena and Stefs bedroom, she doesn't want to wake them but she wanted Lena. Slowly she pushed the door open quietly and tip toes up to the bed. Lena and Stef were sleeping soundly, unaware of the inner turmoil that the little blonde was going through.
She didn't want to wake them and so she started to silently cry because she was scared.
Minis crying had woken Lena and Lena slowly opened her eyes adjusting to the darkness as she settled on a crying little girl.
"Mama." Rylan whispered cuddling Bee to her chest
"Mini, come here baby. Come to Mama." Rylan walks quickly around the bed to Lenas side. She raises her arms up and Lena swiftly lifts the little girl up and onto the bed, into her lap. Mini wraps her little arms around Lenas neck and cries into her shoulder.
"Shhh, shh baby. Mama is here. You're ok. I have you. You are safe." Mini nods into Lenas shirt through her cries.
"Mmmm love." Stef whispers sleepily.
"Mini." Lena whispers. Immediately Stef is wide awake now and peaking at Rylan over Lenas shoulder. Stef gives Rylan as sad look before holding her arms out for the little girl to come to her.
Lena releases Mini and watches as her little girl crawls from herself to her wife to cuddle. Lena smiles as Stef lays back with the little blonde on top of her. Minis head rests on Stefs chest, her ear pressed firmly against Stef chest where her heart lies.
The sound of Stefs heart beats makes the little girl drift off. The last thing Rylan remembers was a blanket pulled over her and Stefs heartbeat echoing in her ear.
xxxxxxxxxx
Lena woke to her alarm going off. She turned it off and sighed as she looked over at her now awake wife and daughter. Mini was rubbing her eyes and let out a yawn from her position on Stefs chest. Stef ran a hand through Minis hair before slowly sitting up and bringing the little girl with her.
"You have work today." Lena announced quietly. She really didn't want Stef to go in today, but she knew her wife had to work. It would just be her and the kids today as there was a pupil free day but Lena also had to go into work for an hour or so for a meeting. The two had decided on Dana and Stewart watching the kids while they were in town so they could spend more time with their grand kids.
"Yeah and you have a meeting, don't forget. Oh and we have to bring the girls down for statements and pictures sometime if we want the case to go to court." Lena nodded and looked at Mini who was padding into the bathroom. Lena sighed and wiped a stray tear.
"Why is everything always so hard and difficult, why can't our kids catch a break." Lena whispered more to herself then Stef. Stef was also feeling the same and moved over to pull her wife into a hug.
"We will get through it. Those girls are strong. Ill do anything I can to make it easier on them but as soon as he is in jail and away from our kids the better." Lena nodded and pulled Stef in for a kiss before hoping out of bed and heading downstairs with Mini, leaving Stef to get dressed in peace.

"You have the tape?" Stefs Captain said as Stef entered the office and took a seat. Stef handed over the tape and watched as her Captain placed the tape in to listen to it. Stef gripped the edge of her seat roughly as she had to listen to what her daughter had said again, the pain not lessening at all.
By the end of it, Stefs Captain was looking at Stef with wide eyes. Clearing her throat a bit Stef decided to talk.
"He got off once and I will not let him get away with it again. He has hurt two of my kids mentally and physically and to me that is not ok. I joined the academy to put scum like him away and to know it involves my family is making me more determined to solve all cases that come our way. My daughters deserve happiness and justice for the abuse that he caused and I will do anything to give them that." Stefs captain listened to everything she was saying and in her mind she wanted to do exactly what Stef was saying, she wanted to put him behind bars.
"The girls will need to come down and give statement and also pictures need to be taken like I said before but from the evidence so far I see this going in our favour, and Olmstead will go down." Stef looked at her Captain and she never felt so happy in her life to hear her captain say that. Standing up Stef shook her captains hand and exited the office to go to her own desk. Things are starting to look up. Stef thought as she smiled taking her seat.

"No no no no no no no no." Rylan screamed as Lena grabbed her coat off of the rack. Lena was just about to leave to go for her meetings at the school when Rylan noticed her. Lena planned on not telling Rylan because she knew the little girl would throw a fit at being left with people that weren't her moms.
Crocodile tears filled her eyes as she clung to Lenas legs, holding very tight so Lena couldn't leave. Lena sighed and bent down after she put her coat on and scooped up the little blonde.
"Hey, hey hey, Rylan baby, look at Mama. Calm down and look at Mama." Rylan slowed her crying down to listen to Lena. Lena smiled a small smile and kissed the little girls head.
"Now, mommy is at work and I have to go to work for some meetings. You need to stay here with the other kids and grams and granddad. Ok?" Rylan shook her head and clung to Lena.
"She will be fine Lena." Dana came in after hearing the tantrum the little girl was having and plucked Rylan out of Lenas arms.
As soon as Rylan was in Danas arms the little girl began to wail and kick and scream so hard that her face was covered in tears and going red.
Lena had to go to work but the way Mini was acting made her want to stay. Callie came down as fast as she can and took Rylan from her grams. Not even Callie could calm her down and that worried Lena. Lena sighed and grabbed Rylan from Callie and situated her on her hip. The crocodile tears and screams turned to sniffles and hiccups as she was secure on Lenas hip.
"Ill take her with me, you kids behave." Lena sighed as she hoisted Rylan higher on her hip, grabbed her bag and headed to the car. The one thing running through Lenas mind was 'why had Rylan thrown a tantrum like that.'
Lena buckled Rylan into the Car seat, the little girl didn't want to let go of Lena but Lena was able to detach the clingy hands from her neck and situate the girl in her seat.
The entire drive to the school, Lena watched the little girl from her rear view mirror. The tantrum still running through her mind.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Hey love, no im just doing paper work, How are the kids." Stef said answering her phone.
"Really, is she alright now?" Stef sighed and ran a hand down her face.
"Alright, well you can drop her here, im sure my cap wont mind." Stef said as she looked to the door of her captains office.
"Alright, see you in a bit." Stef hung up her phone and continued to look at her captains office door. She needed to get permission to watch Rylan here in the office for a bit while Lena was in a meeting, it would only be for an hour or so.
Getting up from her desk after giving herself a prep talk, Stef made her way over to the office where her captain was. Giving the door a knock, she waited.
"Come in." Stef opened the door, walked in and closed it behind her.
"Officer Adams Foster, what can I do for you?" Stef took a seat where her captain gestured.
"My wife had to go for a meeting and our newest foster child is apparently having some separation anxiety from Lena and Myself. My inlaws were suppose to watch her and the others but she had a melt down. I was..." Stef was cut off by her captain.
"This new foster daughter is one of the two that is involved with the olmstead case?" Stef nodded.
"She can come, I understand. You need to be able to do you work though. From what you said she has gone through and her case file, I can understand the separation anxiety. Is that all Officer?" Stef nodded.
"Yes Captain." Stef stood and shook her captains hand before exiting the officer and closing the door behind her.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Mommy?" Rylan sniffled out as she saw the police station ahead. Lena smiled a small smile. She hoped she wasn't going to be late to her meeting. As soon as Lena had left the house she knew that Rylan wouldn't be able to go into the meetings and so that would be hard for her seperation anxiety, so she called Stef.
"Yeah baby, im dropping you to Mommy while Mama goes to a meeting." Pulling up Lena parked the car and got Rylan out. The little girl clinging to her neck straight away, Lena sighed and headed inside to find her wife.
"Hi Im looking for Officer Stefanie Adams foster?" Lena asked the receptionist. Blonde hair, brown eyes, slender but she was not Lenas type and she was not Stef.
"And who do I tell her is calling?" Lena sighed. This new receptionist was a pain. The old one knew who she was and she didn't need to go through all of these questions.
"Tell her its her wife and daughter." The receptionist gave Lena a criticising look before picking up the phone.
Not even 5 minutes later Stef was rounding the corner with a smile on her face. Stef pecked Lenas lips and grabbed Mini so Lena could go.
"Bye Mama." Rylan whispered as she waved to Lena. Lena headed out quickly and Stef headed back to her desk with Rylan on her hip.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Stef and Rylan headed into the captains office. Stefs Captain was happy to see Rylan and greeted her kindly.
"Hi." Was all that Rylan said back. Stef gave a sheepish smile to her captain but her captain understood and waved it away.
"So I have this lollipop but I can't see to find anyone that will want it. Do you know someone who would want it Rylan?" Rylan looked up from Stef neck to peek at the Captain. Giving a nod, Rylan smiled.
"Me please." Stef chuckled and kissed Rylans forehead as the captain gave her the lollipop. Immediately the wrapper was off and in the bin, and the lollipop went straight into Rylans mouth.
"Thankyou." The captain gave a smile.
"So how about you and I draw and colour in here while your mommy does her work?" Stef look shocked at her captain, but seeing the woman smiling at her daughter Stef was able to smile.
Rylan looked between Stef and the captain, she couldn't decide.
"Ill be at that desk right there if you need me sweetie."Stef pointed out so Rylan could look. Giving the desk a look, Rylan finally nodded and Stef placed her on the ground.
"Thankyou captain." The captain nodded and dismissed Stef. Stef smiled and went over to her desk knowing her daughter was in capable hands.
Xxxxxxxxx
By the end of her meetings, Lena was exhausted and just wanted to go home and relax with her family. She also wanted to know what was with Minis tantrum this morning.
Hopping in her car, she headed to the station to grabbed the little girl since Stef didn't have a seat for Rylan in her car.
When she arrived Lena could hear Mini laughing and that was a good sign. Ignoring the receptionist, she headed towards her wifes desk to see Stef watching Mini playing some sort of game with a few of the officers.
Seeing Lena arrived, the Captain called Stef and Lena into her office. Mini was to entertained to even notice her mothers go into the captains office.
"Mrs Adams foster, nice to see you again." After the introductions the captain jumped straight into it.
"The longer we wait for the pictures and statements the longer the process is going to take to get Mr olmstead off of the streets. So I would like Callie and Rylan to come in sometime this week so we can make a start. You have two great girls there and I really want to help them. I know its going to bring back memories that they have probably tried hard to forget but to officially let them heal the offender needs to be put behind bars." The captain explained to Lena and Stef. Both nodded, knowing that this was something that their children had to go through to heal.
"Alright, how about Wednesday after school. It will give me time to talk to Callie, so Callie can talk to Rylan." Stef suggested as Lena nodded. The captain agreed, gave Stef the rest of the day off and then both women exited the room, grabbed their daughter and headed home.
