Brandon POV

Lunchtime is finally here and I head over to the Music Room where Callie is supposed to meet me there. When I get there, I opened the door to an empty room. I check my phone and sure enough I see a text from Callie. 'Sorry babe. Had to stay after class to talk to the teacher about my paper. See you in about 5 minutes'. I smile and put my phone away. I sit down and the piano and start playing a song to kill time when I hear the door open and close. I start speaking before I turn around, assuming it is Callie.

"That was a quick…oh I'm sorry I thought you were someone else" I say to a redheaded girl. I've seen her in my last class but never spoke to her. I think her name is Tammy or Tonya.

"It's cool. Your name's Brandon, right? I'm Tayla we have 7th period together." TAYLA, that's her name.

"Tayla. Well, nice to meet you. So what brings you in here? This room is usually empty when I come in" I have only been here a few times but Callie is usually the only person in here.

"Well I know you come in here and I just wanted to talk and get to know you better. So do you have a girlfriend, Brandon?" Wow she is really straightforward. She seems nice so I don't want to hurt her feelings.

"Actually yes I do. You know Callie Adams right?" She starts to frown.

"Callie Adams, that slut. She must have tricked you like she did her old foster brother" Tayla spats at me.

"What are you talking about?" I'm curious as to what she is talking about.

"Well when she first started going here before Vice Principal Adams adopted her, she was dating her foster brother who also went here. She was 10 and he was 15. She claimed he raped her but we all know she slept with him and then cried rape. She is such a slut. You should break up with her and get with me" She says as she tries to straddle me. I am furious and start pushing her off of me. As soon as I try to say something, I hear someone crying. I look past Tayla and see Callie standing by the door.

"Oh my god Callie I swear this isn't what it looks like!" I push Tayla off and go towards Callie but she takes off down the hallway. I turn to Tayla who has a big smirk on her face

"Don't you ever come near me again! And if I hear you talk about Callie again I will find some girl to beat your ass" She just dismisses what I said and leaves. I walk around the school frantically searching for Callie but I don't see her anywhere. I then go back to the music room, hoping she came back there. No luck. I just sit down and put my head in my hands. Although I didn't do anything I can only imagine what she is thinking. I pull out my phone and text her "Baby I promise it isn't what it looks like. She was coming on to me. Please text or call me. I am so sorry" I wait impatiently for a few minutes. No reply. Then I hear the bell ring signaling lunch is over. I wait a few minutes just in case she comes back. When I hear the next bell saying I'm late for class, I reluctantly get up and leave. This has turned out to be the worst day. I just hope Callie is okay.

Callie POV

Journal Entry 3/31/2014:

Dear Diary,

I can't believe Tayla was telling Brandon all of that. I hate her so much. The only reason she is mad is because she had a crush on my old foster brother when I first came to school at Anchor Beach. I was not ready to tell Brandon about my past. I don't want to think about it now. I am still so ashamed and I feel so used. Brandon is the first guy I have opened up to since then. I really care about him. I am really falling for him and I know he is not going to want to talk to me since he knows…

Sitting in the bathroom, I write down all my feelings until I hear first the bell that signals lunch is over and the bell that 4th period has started. Of course, I have that class with Tayla. I can't face her right now. I just want to go home. I close my journal and look peek my head out the bathroom door. After it's clear in the hallway, I head to my mom's office so I can make up an excuse to go home. As soon as I leave the restroom, I hear someone call my name. I know exactly who it is. Crap, why is he not in class?

"Callie. CALLIE WAIT! PLEASE STOP!" Brandon says as he runs up to me. I wipe my eyes, trying to hide my tears and turn around.

"What Brandon?" I yell at him. He is taken back by my tone.

"Callie I swear I didn't do anything with Tayla. She was pushing up on me." He puts his hand on my shoulder and I start to relax. "Baby I would never do anything to hurt you I am so sorry" Tears start forming in my eyes. I feel so bad that he thinks he's the reason I am mad. I was not ready to tell him this but I have to so he doesn't blame himself.

"Brandon, I was there when she started talking about me so I know you didn't do anything. I was just ashamed that you now know about my past." I say to him. He looks puzzled.

"Oh Callie I didn't believe anything she said. Why are you so mad at some rumor?"

"Because Brandon it's not a rumor! My foster brother did rape me. But I promise I didn't ask for it. I told him no. But it was my fault. I let him believe it was okay. He was nice to me when I first started living with his family and I used to hang out with him in his room at night. But I promise I didn't ask for it" By this time I am balling and I didn't even notice Brandon was hugging me.

"Baby it's okay. I am so sorry. Please stop crying." It sounds like he is fighting tears. We hug for about 10 minutes until I finally stop crying and look at him.

"You don't think I am dirty and used up because of what happened to me." I ask him.

"Callie, don't ever think of yourself like that. You are beautiful and what happened to you was not your fault." He reassures me. I smile and kiss him on the lips.

"I am sorry for running off. I was just ashamed..." He cuts me off by kissing me. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer to me, deepening the kiss. He puts his hands under my shirt, resting them on my sides; I feel a tingling where he touch is. We kiss until we hear the next bell ring. Wow, has it been that long. We hurry up and push away from each other so no one sees us making out.

"Walk you to class" Brandon asks me, face still flustered from our hallway make-out session.

I barely breathe out "Ok".

He takes my hand and we walk to class. We run into Tayla and she is looking at us with this shocked-pissed look on her face. Probably shocked and pissed that crap she pulled didn't work. When we see her, I look at Brandon and he already knows what I am thinking. He pulls me in and kisses me right in front of her.

"Whatever" She yells as she walks off. I open my eyes and when she turns the corner, I pull back and we both bust out laughing.

"Can you come over today" I ask him, hoping we can continue our make out session later.

"No babe I can't. I have to go straight home. My mom wants to talk to me and Jude. But maybe I can come by after we are done. Or, you can come over our house. I want to show you my room" He smirks at me. He is such a guy. But he's my guy! I blush at the thought and bite my lip.

"Okay, Just text me when you are ready for me to come over." I say seductively. Well I think seductively. I am not sure how to be seductive.

"Well if you bite that lip one more time, I may just have to skip the rest of the day and we can go to my house now!" I gasp and blush so red I look like a tomato. I see he likes when I bite my lip. I will remember to do that often.

"Whoa did it get hot in here? Behave Brandon and go to class. Since I won't see you anymore today, text me when you get home." I tell him. I kiss him one more time and turn and walk away, trying to do a little sway as I walk. I wonder if he notices. Next thing I know, he has turned me around and kisses me again.

"Stop walking like that if you don't want to skip this next class!" I giggle at the expression on his face. I turn around and walk into class, leaving him standing in the hallway smiling.

Late Afternoon (Foster's House)

Stef POV

Mike and I are sitting on the couch waiting for Brandon and Jude. This is going to be a very hard conversation.

"Stef, we can work this out. Please!"

"Mike, we have talked about this for months. I can't change the fact that I am gay" Mike just gets quiet.

"Just know you are breaking the family up. " He gets up and storms upstairs. As soon as he goes upstairs, I hear Brandon and Jude coming in the house" Okay, here we go.

To be continued…

More drama to come!. Don't worry! Everything will be okay in the long run. But, if there was no drama, I wouldn't have anything to write about. Reviews are welcome!
