"Callie?" Lena yelled upstairs
"Are you coming down?" She was walking up the stairs
"Can I come in?" She knocked on the almost closed door, who was open by a crack.
Callie didn't answer.
She listened quietly for a moment.
She thought maybe Callie was listening to music in he earphones and thats why she wasn't answering or maybe she was in the shower and couldn't hear them.
So all she did was stand there in front of her daughter's room.
Suddenly, she heard a small weak wimp.
She opened the door a little more so she could look at the room.
She wasn't sure if the wimp was a cry or a quick breath or just the house settling down.
But her mama senses knew something was wrong.
She couldn't see anything and she felt like she had to come and look for her girl
"Callie I'm going in" She announced
As soon as she walked in and spotted Callie, in a fetus position on the floor, inside her closet, hyperventilating and crying quietly, she wished she had came up earlier.
She didn't say anything, all she did was sit on the closet floor hugging Callie.
She had no idea what was wrong, but she knew Callie, and she knew Callie wouldn't want to talk.
Lena then noticed how Callie was hyperventilating. She noticed Callie was breathing way to fast and she didn't like how her daughter's breath sounded like.
She took her phone from her pocket and without Callie noticing she tried to text "911 girl's room. quietly." to Stef, but exceedingly sent it to Jude.
*The Fosters*
"Mom, What's wrong in the girls room?" Asked Jude.
Until that moment he was so concentrated with his texting with Conner and he didn't notice everything that happened.
"Was baby?" Stef asked
"Mama just texted me 911 girl's room quietly" He sounded worried
"Oh honey I think she meant to send this to me. I'll be right back you all ok? don't move we ARE going to that restaurant" Stef looked at all of her beautiful children and then got out of the car.
She ran upstairs as the message instructed and quietly went into the girls room.
She saw why the 911.
She heard Callie hyperventilating and saw how Lena was hugging her.
The both of them didn't notice her.
She ran back downstairs to the other kids in the car
"This might take us a while. B can you maybe drive everyone to that pizza place? Me mama and Callie would come as soon as we can ok?"
"Sure" He sounded confused.
Brandon got out of the car and walked to the driver's seat, but stopped next to his mother
"Mom what's going on with Callie?" He whispered
"Nothing you should be worried about dear. But I should go. We will meet you at the restaurant" She said, while pushing a hundred dollar bill in his hand.
He looked at the money and back up to his mother
"You can start ordering. This is just in worst case so you would have some money on you. Now go" She kissed him and ran back inside
"What's wrong with Callie?" Was the first thing he said, looking back through the front mirror
Mariana was about to respond but Jude started talking first.
"She just doesn't feel very well" He said, looking at Mariana, who knew that it wasn't what was really going on
"No Jude. Don't lie to us" She whispered "we should all know"
"I can't she would be so angry when she would find out"
"I know what's wrong with her" Matthew suddenly said
All eyes turned and looked at the young boy.
"How would YOU know?" Jude rolled his eyes
"How could you be so like Callie" Mariana said vary quietly to Jesus, who giggled
"I know, because I also had panic attacks. They weren't as bad but I had them to"
"Panic attacks? On a seven year old?" Jude said, forgetting to deny that he was right and that that was what was happening to his sister
"Yes. Panic attack on a five year old" Matthew corrected him
"Jude, why does Callie having panic attacks?" Brandon asked
"I don't know but it happened before"
*The Fosters*
Stef ran in to the girls room again, this time after she took a brown paper bag from the kitchen.
She walked in as quite as she could, which isn't really hard to do because Callie was breathing pretty loudly by now, gasping for air.
Seen how severe the situation was, she just ran inside that closet and placed the bag in front of Callie's mouth, causing both Lena and Callie to jump.
They didn't notice her coming in.
Callie was crying and getting the paper bag wet.
Lena was crying because of Callie and because she had no idea what to do and she got Callie's back wet, and only Stef started doing things.
Stef got Lena out of her grip of Callie and made her go and sit on Callie's bed.
Then, she helped Callie stand up, while still breathing to the bag, and walking to the bathroom.
Stef took a towel and cleaned Callie's face from the tears and the very little makeup she was wearing that by now was smudged all over her face.
She then turned the water in the shower on and made Callie go in the shower and Lay there with her close on.
The water felt good on her and she started to relax.
"I am going out to your room, I will leave the door open so you can call us whenever you need. Me and mama are right over there" Stef said calmly.
She kissed Callie's head and went out of the room.
When she went out of the room she saw her wife still sitting in the exact same spot on Callie's bed, three teardrops on her cheeks, staring at the closet.
"Hey" Stef said, trying to wake Lena up from staring at the closet
Lena lifted her head and saw her wife.
"I didn't know what to do" Lena said quietly, a few more teardrops fell on her cheeks.
"You did know what to do. You texted me." Stef said.
She didn't want Lena to know she texted Jude accidentally, because she knew it would make her feel worst.
Stef sat down next to Lena and rapped her arm around her wife's shoulders.
"What happened before I came?" Stef asked
"I don't know. When I came in she was sitting on the closet floor. Her head on her legs and her hands hugging her legs."
"We need to figure this out" Stef hugged Lena stronger.
"I know" Lena wiped the tears from her eyes
"I'm glad you went up and checked" Stef said, making Lena to smile.
"So" Lena stood up "What now?"
"Now we choose some closes for her and go in. Then we talk to her just a little bit, checking the surface, its Callie so she would probably won't want to talk to us, build her walls back up. We would explain what just happened and"
Stef was interrupted by Lena
"What just happened? What can we tell her?"
"It was a panic attack"
Those word made Lena shiver
"But what do you know about… Panic attacks?" She asked
Stef took out her phone and Google searched "Panic attack".
They both read some things, figuring out what to say to Callie and what not to say.
They decided they would tell her she would have to go to see a psychiatrist for one time and then they would consult the psychiatrist if she should continue going.
They also decided they would ask if this was the first time. They knew Callie liked hiding important things like this one to herself.
"Moms?" They heard Callie calling for them from the bathroom
"Yes baby?" The both came in, surprised she called them Moms
They saw their exhausted little girl, wrapped in her towel, laying on the bathroom floor, half asleep.
"I guess we wont talk to her right now" Lena whispered to Stef
Lena went out of the room and came back with Callie's favorite PJs.
She handed it to Stef who was sitting next to Callie brushing her hair.
Callie's eyes were closing slowly.
"Baby do you want us to dress you?" Lena asked
"I can do it" Callie mumbled.
The two moms left the room leaving the door half open
"I'll stay home" Stef said
"I can stay home" Lena argued
"Matt would want you to be there"
"Matthew would want us BOTH and Callie to be there" Lena insisted
"I'll stay home. I would finish some paper work I had to do in work today and I will meet you all when you come back"
"Fine" Lena gave up.
She knew it wasn't a fair fight, Stef was really stubborn.
"Honey I am going but Mom is staying home with you" Lena said loud enough so Callie would hear
"I think she is to tired to understand" Stef pushed Lena to go out of the room, she they were next to the steps she kissed Lena and then waited until her beautiful wife went out the door
Stef came back into the room and Callie just came out of the bathroom, wearing her PJ shirt inside out and her pants turned around.
"Mom my head hurts" Callie said softly, er eyes closed
"Thats probably means you are really tired and unfortunately for you dehydrated"
Stef guided Callie to her bed, but she insisted Callie to sit.
"Baby just wait five seconds and I will be right back here and you could go to sleep ok?"
Callie nodded her head
Stef went out of the room and ran downstairs.
She took a big mug and filled it with water.
Then she ran back upstairs.
"Here" Stef handed her girl the mug "Drink"
"No mom I'm not thirsty I'm tired"
"Yeah but you cant go to sleep until I move from your bed. And thats not going to happen until you drink the whole thing"
Callie took a few zips and fell asleep sitting and holding the mug
"Oh Callie" Stef whispered, giving Callie a big kiss on the forehead, and taking the mug that almost spilled, putting it on the dresser next to the bed.
Stef then left the room, and shut the light off.
*The Fosters*
"Hey mom" Jude said as Lena came in to the restaurant
"Where are mom and Callie?" Mariana asked
"They stayed home, Callie… wasn't feeling good" Lena said sitting down next to Matt.
Jude and Mariana looked at each other
"No!" He whispered
"Not now, but we have to tell sometime" She whispered back
"So! What did you all ordered?" Lena asked
"Pizza!" Matt said happily
"Alright" Lena raped her arm around him and smiled.
