Lauren

When Brandon heard those words he was shocked. But not in the bad way; he couldn't believe that Callie Jacobs was falling for him of all people. He was honored. "Wow Callie." He said, still in disbelief.

He saw her face and saw that she looked scared; like not knowing how he would react, so she said quickly, "I'm sorry I said that. I don't know what got into me. I-"Callie froze when Brandon interrupted her rambling with a speech with a kiss.

He whispered into her ear, "I'm falling for you, too." He didn't need to see Callie's face to know that she was relieved. He could tell by the way her shoulders dropped, and he could feel the smile on her face. Like any good boyfriend, he kissed her, again.

When Mariana walked in, "Okay, guys. I'm glad you're a couple but keep the PDA to a minimum." Mariana smiled as she said it, walking into the living room and turning on the TV to watch it.

Callie, embarrassed, hid her face into Brandon's chest and in return he put his arms around her and he could feel her cheeks get hot. Brandon kissed the top of her head and then took his arm and put it around her shoulder, "Let's go upstairs. The dishes are done." And together they walked up the stairs.

They laid on Brandon's bed together, with Callie laying on Brandon's chest tracing small patterns of his shirt with her finger.

"Callie?" Brandon asked her while he was twirling her beautiful brown locks around his finger, looking adoringly at her.

"Mhm." She turned her head to look up at Brandon, wondering what she was going to say.

Brandon spoke again, "We need to go out on a proper date- like to a movie or dinner or something." He hoped that Callie would say yes, but if she didn't –because she wasn't ready- he would understand that.

Callie thought about it for a minute. Should she say yes? I mean they could finally do something as a couple, but what if someone saw them? How would they explain it to them? What happens if they told Lena or Stef? Or what happened if-

Brandon said something that took her out of her messy thoughts. "Callie, if you don't want to. It's alright." He said soothingly, still playing with her hair.

Callie looked up, again, at Brandon and even though his face was indifferent, she could tell in his eyes that he really wanted her to say yes. They had a glint in them that she saw so many times in Jude when he asked her to do stuff.

She looked into his eyes, and she realized that she couldn't say no. Lena and Stef be damned. She finally found someone who liked her –for her- and accepted her, and she wasn't about to let him get away that easily.

"Okay, Brandon. Yes, we can go out on a proper 'date'" She put quotes around the word date, just to tease Brandon. He laughed.

Brandon leaned down and kissed her lips, "Okay. When do you want to do it?" He asked her, making sure that it's what she wanted. Because she was more important than him.

Callie thought about it for a minute, they could easily go to a movie. That wouldn't be suspicious. But she really wanted to get to know him better, and with a movie they couldn't do that. But if they went out to a restaurant, then their parents would get suspicious and someone might see them. She thought really hard as to what she could do to get to know Brandon more, but not have them get suspicious.

Then she thought of an idea. She hasn't done it in a long time, but she could easily learn how to do it again; and it wasn't too romantic so they could get away with it. "Hm… let's do it sometime this week like today, tomorrow, or the next day."

Brandon nodded his head, obviously liking that idea, "Okay. But where can we go?" He wondered, and asked her. Hoping that she would have a better idea than a picnic in the park.

Callie jumped up and looked at him with a sparkle in her eyes, and Brandon knew he was going to say yes to this idea. No matter how crazy it sounded because he loved seeing her eyes light up. It made him smile. "We can go bowling!"

Brandon laughed, obviously thinking of something else, but because of how excited she was, he couldn't say no (even if he was really bad at bowling). "Alright. There is a bowling alley like 10 minutes away from us. I can drive us. How about we go… tomorrow, after school? I could say that I'm dropping you off at a friend's house and that I could go hang out with my friends. So the moms wouldn't know." He felt kind of nervous because he rarely ever lied to his moms, but with Callie at his house, he has recently been doing more lying. And he doesn't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

He's going to go with a good thing. Just because his conscience would nag him if he thought it was a bad thing.

Callie nodded her head, and then heard footsteps coming up the stairs. She couldn't risk getting them in trouble, so she gave Brandon a quick kiss and snuck into her room. She sat on her bed, reading a book and smiling because of her date with Brandon.

She hoped that luck would be on her side tomorrow.

It was bedtime at the Foster household and Callie instantly went to bed, excited for tomorrow. She couldn't wait to see Brandon fail miserably at bowling. He could tell by his face that he wasn't a good bowler. Well she wasn't either. They would make a perfect pair.

Brandon laid on his bed thinking about an excuse he could tell his moms that would make it sound like they weren't doing anything together. He thought about a thousand excuses and found a perfect one. The one that he mentioned to Callie earlier.

It was the next day, and they both went to school. Callie couldn't focus on any of her classes which made her fail a science pop quiz and having several teachers yell at her. But she was just so excited!

She made her way to English class when Talya cornered her in the hallway, looking her up and down. "So, Callie. I hear that you and Brandon are spending a lot more time together. Well, watch out. I'm going to take Brandon back no matter what. Even if that means making you look like a total ass. Brandon is mine. Not yours. So don't get any ideas, sister. I'm watching you." With that being said she turned and left with a big smile on her face. But not before hitting Callie with her swinging backpack.

Callie rested her back on the lockers and rubbed her eyes. Gosh, she was getting tired of all this Talya drama. She just hoped that on her date, she wouldn't rudely interrupt them.

Because if she did, there would be hell to pay. Big time. And she was really good at getting revenge.

When the bell rang, signaling the end of the school day, Brandon met her by the front doors and said, "The moms totally bought my excuse. So, come on, Callie. Let's go do some bowling!"

And with that, they made their way to Brandon's car and towards the bowling alley.

They walked into the bowling alley and saw that it was decorated colorfully and they went to the front desk to pay for their game and their shoes. They got lane 18 and they put on their shoes.

Callie sat on a chair and entered their names on the computer. Callie was first, then last was Brandon. The pins were set up and Callie picked up her purple, sparkling bowling ball and rolled it down the lane. It caused her to only knock over 2 pins. She looked at Brandon who was smiling at her and then rolled the ball again and got a spare! They TV showed all the pins she knocked down and Brandon kissed her cheek before grabbing his blue ball and rolling it down the aisle.

Brandon got 2 gutter balls and Callie tried her hardest not to laugh. She thought with how smart he was, he could do math to figure out the velocity (or whatever the term was called- she was never good at math). Brandon sat down next to her and whispered in her ear, "I'm horrible at bowling. Like the worst at it."

Callie shrugged her shoulders, "I can see. Well, it's good that I'm good at it then." She grabbed her ball and rolled a perfect strike.

Brandon was shocked, how was Callie so good? Brandon took Callie's hand and then this time only got 6 pins down.

"You're making progress!" Callie told him with a laugh and then Callie saw out of the corner of her eye a girl with orange hair. Knowing its Talya, she grabbed Brandon's hand and quickly said, "I'm hungry. Let's get something to eat." Brandon made sure he had his wallet and let Callie pull him to the concession stand even though he wondered why he was in a rush.

He turned around and saw Talya. And now he knew why.

He just hoped that she wouldn't see them together.

So... is Talya going to see them together? And if so, what will she do? Well... you have to find out in the next chapter ;)

Until next time,

Lauren :)
