Brandon and Callie: Outlaws- Chap 17

I DON'T OWN THE FOSTERS!

"Baby," Matt said when he answered the phone.

"Hey, how's the tour?" Mariana said, she couldn't stop smiling.

"Good, I miss you though."

"I miss you too. It's been a lonely couple months without you, but you're coming back at the end of the week right?"

"Actually we're coming home tomorrow."

"Really? I am so excited. Do you want me to come pick you up?"

"You don't have your drivers license, and besides, there is nothing to pick up. We are driving in with the car and I plan on coming to see you as soon as I've dropped Lou and Jasper off."

"You better. Cause I've missed you too much."

"And I've missed you. Now I have to go, the bands about to go on."

"Okay. Love you."

"Love you more."

"So, what kind of music do you do?" Callie asked, taking a piece of her pie.

"I play piano, I sort of play the drums and violin, and I sing," Melody said, doing the same thing.

"Wow, a really superstar."

"I highly doubt a superstar. Do you play any instruments?"

"I play the guitar," Callie took another bite. "And I sing."

"That was you right, at the dance competition?"

"Yep, that was me."

"You've got an amazing voice."

"Thank you. We'll have to jam sometime," Melody nodded. "How long are you staying?"

"I'm not really sure. My mom thinks that I should stay for a few weeks, I have a tutor, and my dad wants me to come back now. But I think that it has to do with the fact that I am here with my boyfriend."

Callie flinched at the word boyfriend. "Well, I hope everything goes your way, to quote."

Melody smiled.

"I think we should get back," Callie said, looking at her watch. "Lena wants everyone home for pasta night."

"You don't call them moms?"

Callie looked at her, surprised by the personal question.

"Sorry, its a personal question."

"No, it's fine," Callie lied. "I just… I don't know."

"It's okay. You don't have to tell me, we just met," Melody said very understandingly. "Let's pay."

Stef and Lena were talking when little Anabeth cried.

"I'll get her, she's probably hungry," Lena said, standing up.

"Lena, let me get her this time. You were up with her all night and yesterday. Please let me."

"Okay. But I think that Ana is coming soon, so you better hurry up. I don't know what she's planing on doing, so."

"Yes, I know love."

Callie was on her way into her room when Brandon stopped her.

"What's up?" she asked.

"What did you think of Melody?"

"I like her. She seems nice. I'd like to get to know her better."

"I'm glad that you liked her."

"Me too. She's very… very talented."

He laughed. "Part of the reason I like her."

"So, when did this relationship start?" Callie asked. "Wait, come inside cause I need to change out of these shoes."

"Sure," he followed her inside and sat down on her bed. "Just a few weeks ago."

"Is she anything like Lou?"

"No," he answered quickly. "Very different. Lou was… Lou was very isolated. Closed. She didn't really want to let me in."

"I get that." She took off her shoes.

"I really liked her, but I don't know. When she said what she said before I went to Idyllwild I just got so… offended."

"I get that too. Trust me."

"But you know, she's in the past, and I really like Melody, but…"

"But what?" Callie asked, taking off her shirt. Brandon looked away. "Brandon, it's nothing you haven't seen before." He looked at her again, but weirdly. "During the camping trip. When I was in a bikini."

"That's different."

"Tell me how it's different."

"It just is."

"How? I don't see the difference. A bikini top is like a bra, except you use it when you swim."

"It's just different, Callie."

"Alright you big baby," she said, putting another shirt on.

"Thank you. And I am not a baby."

"Yes you are. You're so sensitive. It's sweet, really, but sometimes it's really annoying."

"Well, excuse me for having a more sensitive side, rather than being cold-hearted like other guys," he joked.

"Hey, I said it was sweet," she said, jokingly pushing him.

"Oh, that did it," he said, standing up. He started tickling her and then they fell onto her bed.

"Stop it Brandon," she said through the laughter. "Stop it."

They had their laugh and then Brandon finally stopped. "Sorry I had to resort to such violence."

"Ha-ha," she smiled and looked at him. "I've missed this. I've missed you."

"I've missed you too," he said, leaning into a hug.

"Sorry," Mariana said.

Brandon and Callie separated.

"Don't worry about it. I was just leaving," Brandon said standing up. "Again, thank you," he said looking back at Callie while he left.

Callie nodded.

"What was that about?" Mariana asked when Brandon closed the door.

"Nothing. We've just missed each other."

"Yeah you did."

"Mariana!"

"What?"

"See, this is why I don't talk to you about this."

"Well, that's your loss. I am very fun."

"Of course you are," Callie said, walking over to her and hugging her.

"Mama," Mariana called. "Ana's here," she opened the door. "Come in. Mama is coming with Anabeth any minute."

"Okay," she said coming inside. "So, how's school going?"

"Good. Really good. We won the last dance competition."

"That's really great, Mariana. Congratulations."

"Thank you. Tia and I are planning something really great for next time."

"That's amazing."

"Here she is," Lena said, coming into the room with Anabeth.

"I'll leave you guys," Mariana said running upstairs.

"Hello there Anabeth," Ana said when Lena put her in her arms.

"Stef and I talked and you can either be here or go out with her if you want. We just want her to get to know you."

"Thank you, Lena. Really. It's been amazing to be able to be apart of her life and the twins, even though Jesus is in boarding school, it's been really nice. I appreciate it."

"Don't worry about it. We're happy to have the extra help."

"I'm happy to take her. It makes up for lost time," she smiled at Anabeth. She didn't remember much of when Mariana and Jesus grew up. "I missed most of when the twins were growing up, so I'm just happy that I'm going to get to see her grow up."

Lena smiled. "So, feel free to do whatever you want. I have a meeting, but Stef and the rest of the family will be home, if you want to stay. I think Mariana would really like you to."

"I think I might stay here."

"I'll tell Stef."

Lena started towards the kitchen.

"Lena," Ana said. Lena turned around. "Thank you. Really, thank you."

Lena smiled and went into the kitchen.

"Hey there," Callie said walking into the garage. "What's up?"

"Melody went home," Brandon said, sulking by his keyboard.

"Oh, I'm sorry," she went and sat down on the floor next to him. "At least she got stay awhile, right? Does she live far away?"

"Sort of."

"Alright. Then that'll make it more special when you see each other, right?"

"Yeah, I guess so. But it's still not the same. She's far away. What if I need her?"

Callie took his hand. "Well, then you have me."

Brandon turned towards her and smiled. He then grabbed her hand and helped her up. Callie put her fingers on his keyboard. "Teach me," she said smiling.

"Okay," he said, gleaming. "Here, sit."

He stood up and let her sit. When she sat down she still hand her hands on the keys and Brandon put his arms around her and then his hands on hers. She smiled, she had missed the his touch, his smell, his everything. He then started guiding her and started playing an easy melody that reminded her of Outlaws.
