Brandon and Callie: Outlaws- Chap 22
I DON'T OWN THE FOSTERS!
"Where is he?" Stef asked.
"Where is who, ma'm?"
"My son. Brandon Foster. Someone called me about him being in a car accident."
"You are his mother?"
"Yes. Please. Where is he?" Stef asked, getting more anxious.
"This way."
"Oh, B," she said when she came into his room.
"The doctor will be here shortly."
"Thank you."
"Here he is now," the nurse said and walked out.
"Mrs. Foster?" the doctor said.
"Yes, that's me."
"I'm so sorry about this. Do you know what happened?"
"He got hit by a car."
"Yes. The man who was driving didn't get so badly injured, but he says that he will pay for everything."
"And his injuries? My son's injuries," she asked, tears welling down her face.
"He broke his arm and ribs. His spleen ruptured as well which is why we went into surgery right away. And he has a bruise on his head, but since he hasn't woken up yet, we don't know the extent of it."
"Oh god…" she grabbed Brandon's hand harder. "I'm so sorry B."
"He should wake up shortly, but he will be in a lot of pain. Would you like to call someone?"
"I've already called his father."
"Okay. Tell the nurses if you need anything or if you would like to speak to me."
"Alright. Thank you, doctor…"
"Doctor Lowland."
"Thank you."
"No problem."
"Good morning," Lena said when Callie came downstairs.
"Morning," she said, sitting down. "What's for breakfast?"
"Up to you, but you guys have to eat quick."
"Why?" Callie asked. She was confused.
"It's Brandon. He was in an accident."
"What? How is he?"
"He's okay. He hasn't woken up yet, but we're going soon, so."
"Okay. If you don't mind, I'll skip breakfast," she said, trying to hold down her tears. "Not much of an appetite anymore."
"Sure. Just tell Jude and Mariana to come down."
"Yeah, sure."
"Mom?" Brandon asked in a soggy voice.
"Brandon."
"What happened?"
"You were in a car accident."
Brandon shook his head, trying to wake up. "Is dad okay?"
"Dad's fine. He's getting coffee. Why?"
"I was driving him home."
"From what?"
"Mariana's quinceañera."
"Brandon."
"What?"
"That's the last thing you remember?"
"Yes. Why? What's wrong?" Brandon panicked. Why did she seem so worried?
"Hunny, that was over a year ago."
"Okay, we'll be there in twenty," Lena said into the phone. "Love you," she added and then hung up. "Guys, Brandon doesn't remember anything from after Mariana's quinceañera, so go easy on him."
"Nothing after that?" Callie asked.
"No."
Callie tilted her head down, not wanting anyone to see that she was crying, but she felt Mariana's arm wrapping around her shoulder. "It'll be okay," she whispered.
"H-hey guys," Brandon said when the rest of the family arrived.
"Hey Brandon. How are you feeling?" Mariana asked, lightly hugging him.
"Great," he joked. "Callie," he smiled.
Mariana let Callie stand where she was standing. He grabbed her hand. "It's good to see you."
"It's good to see you too," his smiled grew.
"I would have been very angry with you if you had gone and forgotten me."
Brandon was about to say something when Doctor Lowland came in. "Brandon, it's good to see that you're awake and talking," he said. "Stef, Mike, can we talk outside for a second?"
"Sure. Lena?" Stef said following Mike and the doctor.
"Here, I'll take her," Callie said walking over to Lena and taking Ana.
"Thank you," Lena answered, kissing Callie's cheek.
When she came outside, Lena closed the door into Brandon's room.
"So, what do you think is causing this memory loss?" Stef asked.
"We're not sure, but we're going to run a few tests and see, and until then, try to help him connect with his lost memories. Such as pictures, videos, anything that can jog his memory."
"Okay, we can do that," Lena said, hugging her partner tightly. "Anything else we can do?"
"Not really. It's up to him now."
"Okay, when will be able to take him home?" Mike asked.
"Sometime next week."
"Okay, good. Thank you."
"See you guys," Doctor Lowland said and walked away.
"How are you, Stef?" Lena asked.
"I'm fine."
"Have you had anything to eat or drink?"
"No, not really."
"Okay, well I'll take you guys down to the cafeteria so you can get something in your system."
"What about Brandon?"
"The kids are here," Lena said, having full confidence in them, but Stef hesitated. "They'll be good Stef."
"Okay."
"Mike, I'm just gonna get my purse and tell the kids, stay with her."
Mike nodded.
"So, tell me what don't I remember." Brandon said, sitting up with Ana in his lap.
"Well, you went to Idyllwild during summer," Mariana told him.
"Idyllwild, really? Wow."
"But, before that you got beaten up. It fractured your hand, but you started playing again, of course," Callie reminded him.
"Wow. There's a lot that I don't remember. Why did I get beat up?"
"We don't need to get into that," Callie laughed.
Just then Melody came rushing in. "Oh, baby," she said, rushing to hug him.
"Ow," he said.
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay," he paused and looked at her, then at Mariana and Callie. "Who are you?"
Melody looked at him, confused. "I'm your girlfriend, Melody."
"I don't have a girlfriend. I just broke up with her."
Melody shook her head. She felt as if she was going to be sick. "I don't understand."
Callie took her hand. "He doesn't remember the past year, the last thing he remembers is him breaking up with his girlfriend at that time," Melody sat down next to Callie. "Brandon, you met Melody at Idyllwild. You've been dating for a few weeks now."
Brandon nodded. "Oh, okay," he then turned to Melody. "Sorry I don't remember you."
"It's fine, I mean you've got a head injury so…"
Brandon laughed. "Yeah. I guess I get a pass."
"You do," Melody smiled, feeling as if they were getting somewhere in only a matter of minutes.
"How did we meet?"
"We met after you had just given your first performance, I came over to congratulate you and we just hit it off. You really don't remember?"
"No."
"Well, I guess that is to be expected after a-"
"Melody," Callie said. "Let's not overdo it, okay?"
"What?"
"The doctor said not to push him to much. So, maybe you should come back later."
"Okay. Well, I'm just a phone call away if you need me."
Brandon nodded and smiled. "Thank you for coming by."
"I'll see you when you're better?"
Brandon nodded, not knowing what else to do. Melody went outside and Brandon said, "What did I see in her?"
Callie looked at Mariana. "Jude, let's go get something to drink," she said, knowing what Callie meant.
"Okay."
"You need to get some sleep," Lena told Stef and Mike.
"I'm good," said Stef, nearly falling asleep.
"No, come on. I'll take you guys home."
"What about Brandon, Lena?"
"The kids are here until I come back, okay?"
"Okay."
"So, you really don't remember anything?" Callie asked.
"Nope. But I do remember that Talya read your diary. I'm so sorry about that."
"It's fine, but nothing after that?"
"Nothing after I got in the car with my dad. Why, is there something I should?"
"No. I just… Anyway, I'll bring you-"
"Callie?"
"Yeah."
"Why can't you look at me?"
"I'm sorry?"
"Ever since that girl came you haven't looked at me."
"It's nothing."
"Callie. Is it because of what I said? When I had broken up with Talya?" he asked, desperately needing an answer. "Oh, wait, a lot has happened since then," he added.
"Yeah and you don't need to know everything."
"Like?"
"Like why you got beat up, you don't need to know that."
"Then why did you tell me?"
"Because I thought you would like to know that your hand was fractured."
"Well, yeah, I guess so."
"Exactly. Some things are just better left unsaid." She didn't want to burden him with their relationship. He doesn't need know, not yet at least, she thought to herself.
