Brandon and Callie: Outlaws- Chap 19

I DON'T OWN THE FOSTERS!

"Hey sweetie. How are you," Melody asked.

"Good, and you?" Brandon answered.

"I'm good, but I miss you."

"I miss you too."

"So, I was thinking about maybe coming to visit you sometime soon, if you think that it's okay."

"Yeah, I'd love to see you."

"I really miss you. Playing the piano isn't the same without you."

"Brandon," Callie came rushing in. "I'm late for my… oh you're on the phone. Never mind."

"One sec," he said into the phone, and then put it against his chest. "What's up?"

"I'm late for my thingy with Robert, and there's no one to drive me, so I was hoping that maybe you could, but I see that you're on the phone so…"

"No, I'll just talk to her later," he said.

Callie smiled. "Thank you."

Brandon put the phone back to his ear, and Callie shouted, "You have the best boyfriend Melody!"

Melody laughed. "What was that about?"

"Callie needs me to drive her to something. Is it okay if I call you later?"

"Yeah. Call me whenever you have time. But don't forget that we have an hours time difference."

"I know. Talk to you soon."

"Talk soon. Love you," Melody said before he hung up. She wasn't sure if he had heard it, because it was the first time she had said it. It was too soon, but she did love him. He made her feel special.


"So, how are things going with Robert?" Brandon asked as he was pulling out of the drive way.

"It's going okay, I guess. He's respected that I want to slow down moving in, but he wants me to at least have most of my boxes there by the end of this month, so I guess I'll be finished moving then."

"Well, I am happy that he's let you take your time and not made you rush into doing anything major. I'm gonna miss you."

"I'm gonna miss you too, even more. But, I'll be over at the house with you guys a lot, so don't worry about it, we'll see each other."

He smiled. "Otherwise I would have taken it personally."

Callie chuckled. "Anyway, I'm just… I don't know if I'm ready yet. I mean I was supposed to already be adopted by now and I don't know…"

"Callie, I will do everything in my power to get you adopted."

"It's fine," she chuckled.

"No, seriously, I will spill blood to get you adopted."

"That's really sweet Brandon, but I just can't. I can't change my mind now, the judge won't let me. First I want to live with you guys, then I want to live with Robert, and then i change my mind again. I highly doubt that he will let me."

"He will, if the right person persuades him."

"It's okay. I think Stef has something up her sleeve."

"Like what?"

"I don't know. I just have a feeling that she does," she said. "And if you're nice I might tell her to get some help from you," she added, mockingly.

"Ha-ha," he stopped the car. "Callie, please, take this seriously."

Callie looked at the red light and wished that the green would come. "I am, Brandon, but if I don't joke about it, it becomes reality and I don't want it to."
"It doesn't have to become reality. Don't you get that?"

Just then, the green light came and he started driving again. It was only a few meters and then they were at the Quinn's. He pulled into their driveway and stopped the car.

"Callie, I want you to be happy. I gave up everything for you to be happy. So, why can't you just…" Brandon drifted off, she went out of the car, Brandon quickly followed.

He walked slowly and stood in front of her, blocking her. "What did you give up? What did you sacrifice for-" she asked, but got cut off.

"You," he said plainly. "You. I gave you up. I sacrificed you."

Callie froze. What was she supposed to do?

"And you can't see that, and it's really pissing me off."

"I never asked you to."

"Yes you did. Over and over again. Every time I begged you to fight for us, you asked me to give up on us. And after awhile, I did. I got tired of always being the one trying to fight for us. I got tired of getting my heart ripped out."

"I'm sorry Brandon, but I thought you understood."

"I did understand that you wanted a family, and I respected that. I did."

"Then why did you continuously try to get me to give that up?"

"I didn't. I simply said that we would never be siblings. No matter how hard we try, we would never, we will never be like me and Mariana and Jesus. It's not the same for us. We have a history. Callie, do you really think that if you get adopted that we will be siblings, that we will think of each other like siblings?"

"No, but-"

"Then why are you still mad at me for trying to fight for us?"

"Because I still love you, and I tried to fight for you, but you chose not to want this relationship, the relationship that you were so eager to have just a few months ago."

"I never said I didn't want the relationship, I just said that I was done pleasing you. I was done. But I wasn't done. Haven't recent events shown you that?" He stepped closer, but then backed away.

"Brandon, of course I've believed and hoped that you would still want to be with me, but how can I know when every time I think that maybe we still have a chance, you pull away."

"I don't pull away."

"You do."

"Fine, whatever. Let's just not fight, okay?"

"No, not okay. You brought this up, now you have to suffer the consequences."

"What, the consequence being fighting?"

"Yes."

"God, you make me so mad sometimes," he nearly yelled. He walked closer to her, looking at her lips. They looked into each others eyes.

"Callie," Sophia shouted. Brandon backed away and Callie ran up to Sophia.

"How are you?"

"I'm good. Just came home from riding."

"That's nice."

"What was that about?"

"Nothing," Callie turned around. "You can go now, Brandon. I'll see you at home later. Thank you for the ride," she waved.

He waved back. "See you a home," he tried to sound polite.


"Brandon, love?" Stef asked.

"Yeah mom."

"I have to go into work, and mama is still in her meeting, can you watch Ana?"

"Sure, where's Mariana and Jude?"

"They went to the mall for a little "bonding" time."

"That's nice, but, sure I'll watch her."

"Thank you, B. You are a real life saver."

"Love you mom."

"Love you too, B."


"What?" Brandon said harshly.

"Robert can't drive me home and Stef's not answering her phone, Lena's in a meeting, can you pick me up?" Callie asked.

"I can't. Watching Ana."

"Oh, okay. I can walk. See you soon."

"Whatever," he hung up the phone and looked at Anabeth. "Isn't she annoying? Isn't she?" he asked in a baby voice. "I know."


"Brandon?" Callie called when she came inside the house. She looked in the living room and saw that Brandon was sitting on the couch with a sleeping Anabeth. "There you are," she whispered and sat down next to him.

"She just fell asleep and I'm scared that if I put her down, that she'll wake up."

"She won't if you put her down gently."

He stood up and went to the car seat they used. He put her down gently and then picked up the car seat and went back to the couch where Callie was sitting.

"I'm sorry," Callie whispered.

Brandon looked at her. He rested and Callie put her head on his shoulder.

"I forgive you."

Callie smiled, "Thank you."

"Callie," he said, motioning her to put her head up. He sat up and turned so that they were sitting across from each other. "The reason I got so upset was because…" he drifted off.

"Brandon, look," she pointed at Anabeth, who was deep in her sleep. "Look at that beautiful smile," Callie smiled.

Brandon looked back at her. "Yeah, look at that beautiful smile."

Callie noticed that he was looking at her and blushed.

"Callie, what I was about to tell you-"

"You don't have to."

"No, I want to," Callie looked deep into his eyes. "I can't…" he added, taking a deep breath.

Callie closed her eyes and nodded, fully understanding, but then came the surprise. He kissed her. It was like a soft brush against her lips that was there one second and gone the next. Callie opened her eyes, confused.

"That's what I was trying to tell you."

Callie was still confused. Just then Anabeth woke up with a scream. Callie quickly picked her up and started rocking her. "It's okay sweet girl, it's okay sweet girl."

Callie stood rocking her for what seemed like forever until she fell asleep again, this time Callie kept her in her arms, so that she could feel warm and safe.

"I don't understand," she said when she finally sat down again.

"I'm not done. We're not done."

Callie shook her head, still confused.

"I want to be-"

"Knock, knock," they heard a voice say. Brandon stood up first, Callie followed, still holding Anabeth tight in her arms.

"Melody?" Brandon said when he saw her.

"I'm back!"
