Thank you so much for all of the wonderful ideas! Keep them coming and I'll try my hardest to get to them all soon! I am thinking about combining some of your ideas. Also, it would be super helpful if you would say a little bit about what you would want to happen. That way I can really capture your thoughts instead of twisting it into something I want. I want you guys to be happy with what you read!
This one is about Stef and Lena having the very awkward safe-sex talk with Callie since she and AJ are together. Thank you to the guest who suggested this!
Callie's POV
I walked in the door after work and went immediately up to my room. Everyone was in the kitchen eating but I was nowhere close to hungry. Some guy got sick at work and I got the pleasure of cleaning it up. I texted Mariana and told her to tell moms that I wasn't in a bad mood, I was just very tired and had a lot of homework.
I slumped down onto my bed, welcoming is familiarity and comfort. But, my mountains of homework kept calling to me. I groaned and pulled out my notebook for Timothy's class. He wanted us to write about an awkward situation in our lives. I thought for several minutes, but I couldn't come up with anything good to write. I knew I could totally blow off this assignment since it was just a journal entry and he didn't even read them, but I wanted it to be sincere.
My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on my door.
"Who is it?" I said with a slightly annoyed tone.
"Your mothers!" Stef said in a sing-songy voice.
"Come in!" I sat up straighter on my bed so Lena wouldn't make a comment about my poor posture.
"Rough day at work?" Stef sat down next to me on the bed and put a strong arm around my shoulders. Lena sat in the chair from Mariana's desk and smiled at me sweetly.
"Not too bad. We were pretty busy and some dude puked all over the sidewalk so I had to spend my fifteen minute break cleaning it."
"Well, thank you for that, love, but I could have lived without that fabulous detail." Lena made a disgusted face but she laughed as she spoke.
"Is everything okay?" I looked back and forth between my moms but I couldn't read the look that was plastered on both their faces. "You both looked worried and kind of anxious. Is this about the adoption?"
"No, Callie. Nothing is wrong with your adoption. It is still scheduled for next week." Stef eyed Lena before turning back to me. "We just wanted to talk to you about something." She squeezed my shoulder a little and I could tell whatever was about to come was not good.
"We understand that you might not want to hear this, but please just listen, okay?" Lena patted my knee.
"Will you please just tell me what this is about? You're starting to freak me out!"
Stef took a deep breath and spoke first. "Well, since you and AJ are together… we figured it was time we had the talk."
I groaned inwardly and rolled my eyes slightly. "Do we really have to have this talk? I already know all of the… mechanics." I sighed and recalled Liam. "Obviously." I muttered under my breath.
"Yes, we really have to have this talk. But it's not the birds and the bees talk. This is the safe-sex talk." Lena eyed me, giving me a silent warning to stop rolling my eyes.
"We understand that you have strong feeling for AJ and you want to… express them. But we just want you to be safe." Stef swallowed and her cheeks flushed. I didn't even think that it would be as awkward for them as it was for me.
"We really don't like the thought of our little girl being so grown up, but it happens. So, you know that there are condoms in the bathroom and we will restock when necessary. But, keep these with you." Lena handed me two plastic packages. "It never hurts to have back-up."
"Uhh, thanks…" I shoved the condoms into my bag and tried to stop my face from blushing even more.
"And, we really think that you should get on birth control." Stef turned her head so she was looking right into my eyes.
"What? No way!" I jumped up from the bed and stood by the doorway in case I needed to make a quick exit. "That crap seriously messes up your system! There is no way that I'm taking it." I folded my arms across my chest and tried to make a confident face.
"Do you really want to be pregnant at 16, Callie? Because condoms can break. They are 100% reliable." Lena got up and moved to Mariana's bed so she was closer to me.
I sighed and buried my face in my hands. "In the third home me and Jude were in, they had a daughter who was my age now. She was on birth control and she ended up getting ovarian cancer, at sixteen, and became infertile. I remember sitting in the waiting room of the hospital hearing the doctors tell her parents that their daughter would never have a child. I'm not putting myself at that kind of risk. So yeah, I would rather be pregnant at 16 than never be able to be pregnant."
"Callie…" Stef started, but I cut her off.
"AJ and I aren't even having sex! I'm nowhere close to being ready for that!"
"You mean you and Wyatt never…" Lena had a genuinely confused look on her face.
"No! Believe it or not moms, not every teenager is a sex-crazed maniac."
Stef and Lena shared a relieved look and stood up to leave. I opened the door to encourage their exit.
"Well, we are very relieved to hear that." Stef hugged me and kissed my cheek. "By the way, what were you working on before we came in?"
"Uh, Timothy wants us to write about an awkward experience…" My cheeks blushed and I couldn't even look in their eyes because I was so embarrassed.
They look at each other once again and busted up laughing. Watching my moms cry because they were laughing so hard, made a big smile crack across my face. They held onto each other as they went to their own room, laughing their heads off.
I shut the door and went back to my bed to work on my journal entry. I only got a few sentences down before my phone started buzzing. I smiled when I saw AJ's picture on my screen.
"You're pulling me away from my very intriguing homework, so this better be good!" I teased.
"I just wanted to talk to my girl before I went to bed. How was your day?" AJ's voice was sleepy but I knew I had to give him the details of the incredibly uncomfortable situation I had just endured.
"It was… interesting. You'll never guess the talk I just had to have with my moms!"
Hope you liked this chapter! Don't forget to leave me some more ideas and please tell me if you think there is anything I can improve!
