OMG. I actually am going to continue this story for a little while longer. No matter how shit it is ahaha you people can deal with that. But seriously hope you guys like this chapter. I wouldn't be writing it without all the support I've gotten through PM's.
I do not own The Fosters or any of their characters blah de blah. Same old stuffff.
Brandon's POV
I look out my window to see someone who I think to be Judge Ringer, the man who was judging Callie's adoption case. A puzzled look over comes my face and I walk down stairs to find everyone gathered in the kitchen.
"What's going on?" I ask.
The glare that I get from my mum is fucking scary. Lena seems more sympathetic.
"Brandon" She starts. "Callie's adoption with us has been terminated" She says struggling to hold it together.
"What!" I don't mean to yell.
Lena continues. "The parental rights have been handed over to Robert, she is going to live with him in there second house now"
"Why!" I say my emotions getting the better of me.
My mum glares at me. "Oh I think you know why" She says viciously.
I have a pretty good idea about what she means but I still don't get how..
My face flushes red and I can feel the guilt start to consume me from the inside out.
"You had sex with Callie" Jesus blurts out.
I don't answer but I can tell from the look on my face and theirs they know it's true.
"When" Mum growls.
"2 Days ago" I say quietly. It goes silent, I need to say something. "I love her"
"Well you have a funny way of showing it" Marianna interrupts. "The way you've been treating her since she was adopted by us is shit and now we have no Idea where she is."
"I saw her leave at 6 this morning" I confess. "She left a note on the table." They all read it. 'I needed to get out. I's sorry if I do something stupid. – Callie.'
Jude starts to cry and Marianna comforts him.
"But.. how did judge ringer find out about.." I don't have to finish that sentence for them to know what it's about.
"Callie went and told him." Jesus explains. "She told him that if she didn't do this she would be hurting the man she loved. Which I assume is you. Anyways, she told him everything and now.. well, she's gone"
I start to worry. "What do you mean she's gone" I demand.
"Calm down B" Lena says. "We just don't know where she is."
I breathe heavily. I feel my eyes start to water and a million thoughts start to rush through my mind. I leave them silently chattering as I make my way back to my room.
I open the door, walk in and lock it behind me. I fumble around to find my phone. Nothing from Callie. I feel a tear drop down my face.
Thoughts tear through my mind. Have I even forgiven Callie? She tore my heart out and lied to the judge, she made it very clear that what she wants. A family comes before me. She left me in the dust.. again.
But then there was today..
She just gave up everything that means a lot to her. She gave up living with us and being Jude's sister. If you knew how much she cried when Jude wasn't with at first than you would understand how much of a sacrifice this is. She left the only good family she has ever known… for me.
I sit on the edge of my bed and put my head in my hands.
'She did this for me.' I can hear quiet foot steps making their way to my room.
Someone knocks. "Brandon?" I hear Lena say.
"Come in" my voice sounds muffled with my hands over my face.
She walks in and sits next to me, putting her hands on her lap.
"I thought I better come and talk to you since the other's don't really want to." I nod.
"Now." She says "B, you're gonna have to explain this. At least to me" I nod and sit up a little straighter. "Start from the beginning" Lena says.
"Well.. I love her." I say with a broken voice. "Do you really love her?" Lena asks. "Yes." She nods and waits for me to continue.
"On the day of Idyllwild.. she had a video recording. It had stuff to get Rita cleared on it but in the recording she.. admitted to me coming over when she was staying at G.U." I take a deep breathe. "It was after that, and we were sitting on the couch, she was almost crying. I..I thought that I was gonna loose her for good" Lena rubs my back to comfort me, it doesn't really do anything.
"She went to her room and I went to mine but I couldn't sleep so I went to go see her" Lena breathes in and out, she probably knows what comes next. "I couldn't sleep… so I went into her room and sat with her, I held her hand and we just looked at each other for a while." I swallow.
"But then" I begin. "We kissed and" I stop for a second. Lena just stares at me. "We made love" I choke out.
Lena looks at me. I don't know for how long but it seems to be forever before she brakes the silence.
"B, look." She says. "You know why she did this don't you?" I nod.
"For me" I mutter. Lena nods. "I think you should go see her when you're ready." She says. "You're mom. She's having a hard time, I have a feeling she'll do something she'll regret." Lena explains. "So just. Just be wary of that."
"Ok" I say. I knew my mom would react this way. She can be really aggressive when she's hurt. I guess I'm the same in a way. And with that Lena leaves my room.
I need to go somewhere to think. I walk down the hallway and go towards the front door.
"Where are you going." Jesus stands in my way.
"Nowhere" I growl.
"Tell me" he says moving closer.
I loose my temper. "Fucking hell!" I growl. "I need to do something." I shove through the door and leave him standing there as I walk down the driveway and towards the road.
I get to the beach about an hour later. Sitting on the sand and just thinking, I don't know it just seems to clear my mind. I'm just not sure what to do this time. I saw her this morning when she opened my door. I ignored her. She was just trying to make sure I was ok and I have to admit. I'm not. But then she started to cry. I saw the tears running down her cheeks before she closed the door. Seeing her like that, just made me feel worse.
I have to talk to her at some point, knowing her If I don't she'll do something dumb and I'll loose her again. I just need to forgive her first.
Another Short Chapter who would've guessed.
