Stef POV
I get a call from Brandon saying that he saw Callie and Jesus tagging their principal's car and even though he wants to be the brother and keep it a secret, he knows they could get in big trouble for this. I thank him as I make my way inside the house where I know my wife and two of my kids were home. "Callie and Jesus Adams Foster get your asses in this kitchen right now!" I make my way into the kitchen to see my wife staring out the window and my son at the the table. "Ah, so I see you prepared yourself for this conversation Jesus?" He gives me a small nod looking from me to Lena. "Callie Adams Foster, I said get your ass in here now!" I watch as Lena takes a deep breath and I wonder just how much trouble she is in because of our children.
I sit down at the table, feeling the anxiety radiating off my son. I hear her come inside and I follow her gaze as it lands on Lena asking some silent question. I watch as Lena gives her a slight smile and then her eyes land on me. She goes to walk past me to head up the stairs and I grab her wrist. "No you don't! Sit down now, we are going to have a very long discussion on why you two thought it was okay to tag your principal's car." I watch as she stands there, silently daring me to punish her. "Alright then Callie. Jesus why did you and your sister tag your principal's car?" I watch as he shifts his gaze to me and Lena to Callie. I watch as she shakes her head no and it pisses me off. "Young lady, tell me right now why you did this?" I stand up and watch as she takes a step towards Lena. "No, you do not get to pit me and mama against each other." I begin to pace as I continue to get frustrated. I watch as her look of defiance slowly turns to something else and she slowly looks to Lena for some kind of reassurance. Lena responds with a sigh before she begins to talk. "Stef, sit. I'll tell you why they did it." I watch as Jesus and Callie look from each other to Lena, and I sit down. "Mama, you don't have to. I don't mind getting in trouble, we did what should've been done. Someone needed to put him in his place." I sigh, now knowing whatever this was wasn't a good thing. "Okay so honey, you don't have to go do anything I've already called the school board, and he lost his job after admitting to them what happened. But during our lunch meeting, Johnathan got physical with me." I take a breath in, as I watch her try to compose herself. I look to my kids, Jesus is upset and Callie looks like she wants to kill the man. "He tried forcing himself on me and I hit him in the balls and kicked him out of my office. Then Callie found me, she pieced together what happened and that's why they did what they did. Now yes while what they did was stupid, they did it to get because they love me. I doubt he'll press charges though." I blink finding tears had formed in my eyes. I look to my wife who looks like she's somewhere else. I watch as she slides her hand into Callie's and she visibly relaxes. I decide not to punish the kids given the situation but they know not to ever tag anything again.
Callie POV
I watch as Jesus hugs Stef and Lena and then winks at me then starts walking up the stairs. "Callie, you could have just told me baby. You didn't have to get so defensive." I roll my eyes at what Stef just said and I feel Lena squeeze my hand. I look to her and see her shake her head no. I remove my hand from hers not wanting her touch at the moment. "Well I did. The asshole got what he deserved. I hate knowing people are like that. That they get off on the power and control. That it satisfies them to hurt someone else. I swear it would've been worse if I walked in on it. I would have hurt him to help mama." I feel Lena scoot closer and she's about to say something when the doorbell rings. I jump up and rush to get it before anything else can be said. I'm not surprised to see Blake standing there after what happened today. However I am surprised to see him shirtless and in shorts, I let my eyes run up and down his body. His tan skin is glistening with sweat, he must've went running, and his golden brown crewcut hair is messy. His smile sends a shiver through my body, and his jawline is just the epitome of sharp. I finally make my way to his blue eyes that are staring right back at me. I blush obviously being caught staring. "Callie, who is at the door?" I quickly look back and yell, "It's just a friend from school Stef, I'll be in in a second." I quickly shut the door and we head outside to sit on the steps. "What are you doing here Blake?" He smiles before taking my hand. "Well I thought I'd come by and see how you and your mom and Jesus are doing. But I'd assume everything is okay. I also just wanted to see you." I blush lightly as he sweeps some hair behind my ear. "Blake.." I say as he leans slightly closer, I place a hand on his chest to stop him but my heart rate picks up when I touch him. We are immediately brought out of our thoughts as the door swings open. We move awat from each other slightly when we look to see Stef and Lena. "Uh, hi Mrs. Adams Foster, Vice Principal. My name is Blake, I'm a friend of Callie's. I came to see how the three of you were after what happened today. I clearly should've chosen better attire." I smile lightly at how nervous he is, and I catch Lena's eye and she winks. I giggle lightly and he turns to me. "Cal, it's not funny. I didn't think I'd meet your parents while I'm shirtless from running." I lightly push him and start back. "Eh its okay, they are both into women, they won't mind." Which does nothing but earn a deep blush from him and a laugh from Stef. "Ah that's my girl. Well Blake its nice to meet you. Hope to see you again soon, with your shirt on perhaps." They make a space for me to fit through and I start walking towards him and stop to lift his chin, "I'll see you later B..." he smiles lightly, and I walk inside but I don't stop when I let out one last comment, "I don't mind if the next time they see you, you don't have shirt on. They might not enjoy the view but I do." All that does is earn me a slight gasp from him, and a stern "Callie Quinn" from my moms.
Lena POV
I stand beside my wife completely shocked at Callie saying what she did so boldly. "Callie, you couldn't have said that when we weren't around?" I begin only to receive a smile from her. "I was just giving him a hard time mama. Its not that big of a deal." I laugh lightly as me and Stef look at each other knowing we need to finish the conversation from each other. We both reach out to Callie and she flinches into the wall, hitting her head in the process. "Cal, baby are you okay?" I ask her, hoping she'll answer me. "I'm fine, I just thought.. nevermind. So you want to finish the conversation or not?" I shake my head and we get up to finish the conversation, Stef and I taking the chairs while she takes the couch. "Callie honey, I wanted to say thank you for helping mama today. I really appreciate that. I love you so much." I watch as she smiles and then it's my turn, "Baby girl, you know I appreciate you helping me but its not your job to take care of me and you can't get stuck up on the "what ifs" of what would have happened if you got there sooner.." I stop once I see her ball her fists, knowing this isn't about to go over well. "It's not your fault for not being there Callie." She looks over at me with so much intensity and I'm glued to my seat not knowing what to do, knowing this isn't going to go well. "We, you and me, both of us know everything that we have went through is all my damn fault!! I don't need you pretending to care or making me feel like its not my fault, when we know you're mad at me. You're mad at me for being a bitch that day, you're mad at me for not fighting hard enough. Probably regret adopting me now after all this huh? Hell you probably wish I had talked that day because then I would be dead and you wouldn't have to live with the reminder of what happened! Sorry I can't come with less problems like Brandon or Mariana or literally everyone else. So don't sit here and tell me its not my fault when literally everything is my fault." I sit there in complete shock and tears as I hear her say these things. She's standing way above us and she's more mad than I ever thought possible. "Callie I don't think that at all.." She cuts me off and what comes out of her mouth next cuts me in half. "Whatever Lena! I remember what it looked like when you saw me outside of Juvie that day! I remember what it looked like when I told you about Liam! I remember what it looked like while I was being raped again! You didn't hear the things that man said to me! He said no one could ever love me now without me thinking of him, that whenever you look at me you're going to see what happened. He said it was my fault and the funny thing is, that it is my fault! You want me dead or you wish you never brought me home and I don't blame you for it! Just don't sit there and pretend to love me when you clearly don't." I watch as she runs up her stairs stopping long enough to look at me and for a second it looks like she's going to come back but she walks away.
