Welcome to my Fosters story. This chapter will be based on Season 1 Episode 8 of The Fosters. This story will focus mostly on Callie and Brandon. I am team Brallie so eventually this will become a Brallie story.

Who Can You Really Trust

Callie's POV

It has only been a few days since I told Stef and Lena about my past. Both of them were really sympathetic with me. I'm glad I told them because I knew Stef and Lena were going to help me threw this thing with Liam. At school I met with Wyatt. I was still mad at him but I couldn't avoid him forever.

"I'm sorry about the other day." Wyatt said

"I'm not going to accept your apology just yet." I said

" You don't seem to be mad at Brandon so why do you have to be mad at me?" Wyatt asked

"It's different with you. Brandon I see all the time so it was easier to forgive him and you it was just easy to avoid at school." I said

"You surprise me but yet you don't seem to have a good track record when it comes to boyfriends." Wyatt said

"That might be because we hardly know each other." I said

"Tell me about Liam then." Wyatt said

"When I'm ready to talk to you about it I will let you know. For right now all I have to say about Liam was that I thought he was the perfect guy and he turned out to be someone that ruined my life." I said


Mariana's POV

Tonight in the middle of dinner the home phone rang. It almost never rings because not that many people have the number. Usually of it rings it is usually a junk call. Our moms told Brandon to answer it and he did. Then he handed the phone to me. I thought it might be Lexi but I was wrong. The person on the other end of the phone was Ana. Ana is the birth mother of Jesus and I. She asked me for money. I told her multiple times that I couldn't give her anymore money. Then Ana told me that I should still something from Stef and Lena to give to Ana so she could sell it for money. I told her no again and hung up the phone. I told Ana I would see her after school tomorrow.


Brandon's POV

I had a piano lesson today at this private music school. It was before school so it was only a quick lesson. My first class at school was study hall so I was able to skip it for this piano lesson. I went to school and I was happy to have one less class to get through today. Before I knew it lunchtime arrived. I sat by myself for only a few minutes then my ex girlfriend Talya sat down at the same table I was sitting at.

"Hi Brandon." Talya said

"Hi Talya." I said

"I know this may seem weird but this weekend is - was our 1 year anniversary." Talya said

"Thanks for the reminder." I said

"I got these concert tickets for you awhile back as a surprise before we brook up." Talya said

"Wow Talya but maybe you should just find someone else to go with you." I said

"Actually I was going to give them to you to use with or with out me." Talya said

"I really can't accept this." I said

"Why not?" Talya asked

"The way we ended things it just wouldn't seem right to take these expensive tickets from you." I said

"It's your favorite band Brandon and if I can't use them then I want you to." Talya said


Mariana's POV

After school today I was going to Ana's. I brought Jesus with me. I didn't really want him to come with me but she lives in a really unsafe neighborhood and I needed him to go with me for protection. Jesus and I realized Ana was in a really bad situation. Ana was living with a drug addict. Ana said it was her boyfriend but to me and Jesus he looked like he might be abusive. I really wanted to help but neither Jesus or I had any more cash for Ana to have. Jesus and I headed home before someone wondered where we are.


Brandon's POV

After school I was at home practicing on the piano. The lesson I had seemed to help even though I had only been to a few.

"Can I ask you a quick question?" Stef asked

"Yes." I said

"Does your dad seem off to you?" Stef asked

"To answer the question yes and my dad is drinking again." I said

"Again, how did you know about your dad drinking before. You were a little kid back then." Stef said

"I used to always hear you and dad fighting all the time. I was little but I understood some words even if I didn't know what they meant at the time." I said

"I just want you to be aware and if something doesn't seem right don't do it." Stef said

"Did I ever tell you about the time my dad was driving drunk with me in the backseat?" I asked

"No, how long ago was this?" Stef asked

"I don't remember much but I do remember my dad driving off the road after he swerved to avoid hitting another car." I said

The next day in school I was in math. It was the class I had with both Callie and Talya. The teacher left for a few minutes. Everyone was playing around with their phones and some were even laughing. Then Talya asked them what was so funny. This other boy in our class connected his cell phone to the projector. He then played a video that was taken at a party. Talya was drinking and dancing around in this video. She even took her shirt off. I got up from my seat and stopped the video. Talya ran out of class into the hallway and Callie followed her.


Callie's POV

I followed Talya out into the hallway. She was not my friend but I had to make sure she was ok.

"Are you OK?" I asked

"No, that is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to me." Talya said

"I get the feeling because some embarrassing things have happened to me before." I said

"It's different for you Callie because now you are in a different school so no one here will remember you for whatever happened before." Talya said

"Look tomorrow Kelsey could fall on her but or someone could fall in the fountain and everyone will forget about this stupid video." I said

"I hope you are right because I never want to hear anybody talking about or watching that video again." Talya said

Later Brandon and I were eating dinner.

"So it was pretty bad today what happened to Talya at school." I said

"I feel bad for Talya but she did deserve it in a way." Brandon said

"No one deserves to be bullied like that." I said

"Talya has done some bad things in the past so now she knows what it feels like to get hurt." Brandon said

"She apologized to me for reading my journal and I forgave her." I said

"The journal wasn't the only reason I broke up with her. She was so Jealous after you starting living her and I couldn't take it anymore. " Brandon said

"Maybe she had a right to be jealous. Talya hated the the fact that you and I lived in the same house." I said

"That doesn't explain the video." Brandon said

"Talya got drunk because she felt really stupid. Talya finally realized that I was no threat to you and her after she saw me with Wyatt, The only problem was you had already broken up with her and it was to late for another chance." I said

"I guess I could go to this concert with her tomorrow night. She bought the tickets for what would have been our dating anniversary." Brandon said


Mariana's POV

I was busy doing homework when Jesus walked into my room.

"Do you have a minute to talk?" Jesus asked

"Yes, What's up?" I asked

"So I know we can't give actual cash to Ana but what if we helped her out in another way." Jesus said

"How can we help Ana if we can't pay her cash?" I asked

"Ana needs a better place to live." Jesus said

"Well it's not like we can hide her in this house." I said

"No, but San Diego does have things called shelters. They have ones for woman only and they help them stay off of drugs and steer woman in the right direction." Jesus said

"We can take Ana to a womans shelter but we can't force her to stay there." I said

"Trust me the womans shelter is going to be a lot safer for her." Jesus said

I didn't know Jesus was actually going to help Ana. I was done helping her because I didn't want to be hurt anymore. The next day after school Jesus went out with Lexi or so I thought. I found out that was a lie when Lexi texted me asking if I wanted to go to movies. I now knew that Jesus had lied to me and Lexi didn't know where he was. I was worried so I called Jesus cell but it went to voicemail. I told him to call me back when he got the message. I knew he must of gone to help Ana. I had a bad feeling like something bad had happened or was about to happen to my brother.

I made the decision to tell Stef and Lena about Ana. I told them that I thought Jesus was with her and could be in danger. Stef got her police gear and left. I still had that weird feeling that something bad was going to happen. I went to bed praying that everything was going to be ok. I tried to sleep but I couldn't because that bad feeling would not go away.


I hope you enjoyed this. Please review. I would love to hear your thoughts, comments, suggestions, and just anything you want to know about this story.

Thoughts on this chapter?

How did you like Mariana's POV? I did her POV this chapter because it fit in with this chapter and I wanted brother/sister moments between Jesus/Mariana.

Should the chapters be based on each episode?

Will Brandon and Callie kiss soon?

Do you want to see other characters POV beside Brandon and Callie?

This is my first story for the Fosters and I am excited to write it.

Thank you for reading. Next chapter up soon.
