"Hey birthday boy," Lou said, kissing Brandon.
"Hi."
"This is a lot of people. Do you know all of them?"
"Not really. Some of them are my moms friends."
"I see. Where's your dad? I would love to see him again."
"I think he's in the kitchen."
"Okay, catch up with you later?"
"Yes," she gave him a kiss goodbye and then set off towards the kitchen.
"Brandon?"
He turned around. "Callie. What's up?"
"I was just wondering if…" Brandon turned around and saw that Jasper had arrived.
"Go," he said. "It's okay. Go!"
He watched her go over to him. Just then his heart dropped. He knew that she would only be nice to him today, but not tomorrow, or any other day.
"Happy birthday dear Brandon, happy birthday to you," everyone sang when they brought out the cake.
"Make a wish!"
He looked around the room and then turned to the candles. He wished, then blew them out.
"YAY!" everyone shouted. "Hip, hip, hurray!"
"What did you wish for?" asked Lou, putting her arm around him.
"Now, if I tell you it won't come true."
"I guess not," she kissed his cheek. "I'm gonna go get a drink."
As he watched her go, Callie walked up to him and tapped his shoulder. He turned around and smiled.
"Can I give you my present now?"
"Yeah, of course."
As they walk up the stairs Lou came looking for him and saw them. Brandon and put his hand on the small of her back and then they were gone.
"Wait here," she said, leaving him in his room.
When she came back she had a big wrapped present.
"Here, open it," she handed him his present and then sat down next to him. "Don't read too much into it. I made this before everything went down with us."
He opened it. "Wow Callie. This is beautiful!"
She had put together a little photo album of him when he was small and then a few when he played piano and a few other pictures. It melted him.
"You really like it?"
"Like it? I love it. Thank you so much," he hugged her.
"And I have something else for you."
"This was totally enough Callie."
She handed him a small box. When he opened it, it was half a heart. He looked at her confused.
She stretched the necklace that was around her neck. She picked up the heart that was in the box and put it with the one around her neck. "It spells out, "Partners in crime.""
He smiled.
"You don't have to wear it like me. You can have it on your keychain or wherever you-"
He kissed her. He put on hand on her waist and the other one on her back and she put her hands around his neck. They pulled apart, not far, but so their heads were leaning against each other.
"Thank you, for the gifts. I love them," he said and then he kissed her again, but she pulled away and stood up.
"I'm sorry, Callie. I've had a few drinks in me and I…"
"We're going to go downstairs, have fun, and talk about this tomorrow, if you remember. Okay?"
"Okay."
The next morning someone was banging on his door. His head was pounding and that made the noise louder.
He opened the door, "That is way too loud."
"Hungover?" Jesus asked.
"Just a little. What's up? Please tell me you have aspirin with you."
"Sorry, bro. Moms want you downstairs."
"Do you know what for? Cause I can't handle yelling right now."
"No idea."
"I just need an aspirin before you guys start yelling."
"Why would we yell?" Stef asked.
"I don't know. Maybe for having too much fun last night?"
"No Brandon. We gave you a pass because it was your birthday, remember?" Lena said.
"Right, it's just… my memory… is sort of… uhm… blurry right now."
"Of course, well we just wanted to tell you that you're helping Callie move her stuff tomorrow."
"Okay."
"Rough night last night, huh?" Callie asked as she passed Brandon.
"Yeah. I only remember half of what happened."
"Oh, really?" Callie asked, disappointed.
"Just about… aah… after the cake, I… I don't remember."
"That's too bad," she walked away, disappointed that he had forgotten that he kissed her.
"Jesus. Can I talk to you?" Jude asked, when Jesus had come back.
"What's up?"
"I am going to move in with Mariana when Callie leaves."
"What? Why?"
"I don't know. Just doesn't seem like you want me here anymore."
"That's not true," he said, sitting down next to Jude. "I only tease you cause your my little brother."
"No, you're still mad at me for tell moms that you were lost."
"A little I guess."
"Exactly. I don't like being teased, I get enough of that in school."
"Look little man I tease you cause that's what older brother's are supposed to do. And yes, I guess I'm mean because you tattled, but… I'm gonna miss you."
"I'll just be living across the hall."
"I know. But it's not the same thing. You lived with Mariana when Callie was at Girls United and I liked it, sure, but I also really missed you buddy."
"Well, now I don't know what to do."
"You don't have to decide now. You still have a few days. You can even have a few weeks if you want."
"Thanks Jesus."
"No worries little bro."
"Stef, Lena, can I talk to you?" Callie asked.
"Sure, come on in," Lena smiled. "Is something wrong?"
"No, I just wanted to thank you guys for everything you've done for me, and especially Jude," she started tearing up.
"Well, you're very welcome love," Stef said.
"I told you everything, which made everything change, and now I feel like I'm not lying again, but I don't think that I can change my mind now."
"You can always change your mind."
"Do you really think that the judge is going to let me?"
"Maybe. If we tell him that Robert-"
"No, I'm not throwing Robert under the bus, he's been really nice to me and… I would just feel wrong."
"Then, I'm sorry love, but I think you'll have to move in with him."
"What if like I tell him that Sophia is threatened by me and I can't stay there because she might hurt herself or me?"
"I thought you and Sophia patched things up?" Lena asked, confused.
"I lied to her. I didn't want to be the reason that she ends back up in that rehab. I just told her that I forgave her so that she wouldn't hurt herself again. I don't think I can ever fully forgive her."
"Why?"
"It's because of her that we are in this mess in the first place. If she hadn't ripped the papers, then I would be adopted by now," when she finished the sentence tears were streaming down her face.
"Oh, hunny," Lena said, coming over to hug Callie.
"I'm sorry."
"You don't need to be sorry. Come over here," Lena sat her down on a chair next to Stef.
"I just… I feel so bad saying these things."
"You don't need to. It's true."
"Well, I still feel awful saying them."
"Tomorrow morning we'll go to the judge and talk to him, okay? And if he won't let you change your mind, well then… I guess we will be staying in his chambers all day," laughed Stef.
"Okay."
"Callie?"
"Oh, Brandon, you don't look so good."
"I don't feel good, like at all. I was wondering why you're talking to me. Did I say or do something last night that I don't remember?"
"No, no, it's just… never mind…"
"What? Tell me please. I literally don't remember anything. Like you know they do in movies and stuff."
"Nothing, you were just very convincing," she had told him that they would only talk about the kiss if he remembered it and he didn't, so she decided to leave it out. She didn't want to complicate things for him.
"Hey Brandon!" Mariana shouted when she came in the room.
"Aah… too loud. So not cool."
"You have to admit it was sort of funny," she asked Callie.
"Yeah, it was. Sorry."
"No worries. I will… I will be getting back to bed now… see you guys."
"See you," they both said.
He closed the door behind him and Mariana was next to Callie.
"What happened between you two last night?"
"I'm sorry?"
"Okay, see, I saw you guys coming down the stairs together."
"And?"
"He had some of your lipstick on."
Callie froze. Oh god, oh god, she thought to herself.
"Fine, he kissed me."
"What!?" she yelled.
"Shh! He doesn't remember."
"What?"
"It's okay. We said that we would only talk about it if he remembered and he didn't, so… no point in dwelling."
"But you have to tell me everything! And I mean everything!"
"Well… he had had a few beers, so… it was sort of impulsive. Anyway, I gave him my present and then he kissed me."
"Was it like a soft kiss or was it like… I gotta have you now, sort of thing."
"It was soft and I don't really feel like describing me and your brother's kiss to you."
"Why? It sounds so romantic. I wish Matt was more romantic."
"You call a drunken kiss romantic?"
"Well…"
"Exactly. And he kissed me once before."
"When?"
"When we had that triple date thing."
"That's what you guys were doing?"
Callie blushed. "I was just going to ask him why he was so distracted and he kissed me."
"Oh my god. This is like the best day ever."
Callie laughed. "And that's why I was ignoring him. We got in a huge fight afterwards, so."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"It's fine. I'm still mad at him, but I just can't be mean towards him anymore after that…"
"After that wonderful, hot kiss?"
"Mariana!"
"What?"
"I'm not talking to you about this anymore."
"Come on."
"No, you just made it weird, so."
"Aah man. Just answer me this."
"Sure."
"How did the kiss make you feel?"
