A/N:I don't own these characters but the plot is mine :) Enjoy
Last time on Fosters with benefits...
Brandon leaned in and kissed me. I saw fireworks and I knew this was right but I couldn't say anything because we are only friends with benefits. Brandon pulled away and then said, "Good night Callie." and I nodded. "Good night Brandon." and with that I left his room and went to get ready for bed. This seemed like a dream world and now the dream is going to get complicated.
The weekend is here and everyone is getting ready for it. Lexi was here and Mariana was getting ready for her date and also packing for her weekend stay at Lexi's house. "Callie you could come and stay with us this weekend you know." Lexi said and I just shook my head. "Nah I have somethings around here to do plus I know Mariana is ready to get away from me." I said and Lexi laughed. "Well if you are sure." she said. Jesus came in. "Hey are we ready to go?" Jesus asked with his friend right behind him. "Yeah lets go." Mariana said walking out of the room. "Have a good weekend." Jesus said to me and I nodded as him and Lexi linked hands and walked out of the room.
I walked down to the living room where Brandon and Jude were. "Alright you guys we are off. You have the emergency numbers and Jude has your number Callie so I guess that's it. Oh and there is plenty of things for you guys to cook for the weekend." Lena said as she walked in with a bag in her hand. "Jude you ready?" Stef asked and Jude jumped up and nodded as he grabbed his bag. "Hey Jude. I love you and have fun okay." I said hugging him. "Love you too Callie." he said hugging me back. He went to stand with Lena. "I love you guys and please be good. No parties and no one other than your dad in the house Brandon." Stef said. "Alright you go have fun we will be just fine here mom." Brandon said. We walked them to the door and gave them all hugs before they left.
Once they pulled out of the drive way Brandon and I walked back in the house. "So I don't know how to cook." I say as we walk to the kitchen. "It's okay I can cook but you get to clean up." he says and I smile. "I think I can handle that. Maybe you could teach me how to cook." I say sitting down at the table. "Yeah." he says smiling at me. "Are we going to start like we agreed?" I asked which I could tell it caught Brandon off guard. "We could but do you want something to eat first?" he asked and I shook my head no. "Alright well." he said a little nervous. "Brandon you were all for this at the beginning of the week. What's up?" I ask and he shook his head. "Nothing I just don't really know what to do. I've never been in this.. situation." he said and I laughed. "And you think I have? I haven't had sex in like two years plus I have never been in a friends with benefits kinda situation either." I say and Brandon laughs. "We are a total mess." he says. "I completely agree." I laugh with him.
"Okay maybe we should just see where the night takes us. Plus it is like the middle of the afternoon. So what do you want to do?" I ask. "We could go to the beach I mean it is the perfect beach day." Brandon suggested and I smiled. "Don't we get enough beach when we are in school? I mean we practically live on the beach." I said making Brandon laugh. "Well this is very true but still it hasn't been just us going to the beach." Brandon countered. "Okay well I don't have any beach clothes." I said and it was true. I hardly ever went to the beach and when I did it was in my jeans and a t-shirt and that really wasn't something that I wanted to go swimming in. Then again I wouldn't want to wear a bathing suit because it would show the scares from my past foster homes. "Well we can go see a movie." Brandon asked bringing me out of my thoughts. "Why don't we just watch a movie here or we could play music together. You know, you on the keyboard me on guitar." I said smiling. Brandon smiled the smile that made my heart skip like always. "Well then let's go." he said. I nodded and we headed up to his room where his keyboard was. "I'll be right back." I said as I head to mine and Mariana's room to grab the guitar.
When I returned to Brandon's room he was on the phone. "Yeah Callie and I will be on the way to pick him up." Brandon said before hanging up. "Jude got sick at his friends and Lena called me to see if it was okay with us to take care of him until they get back Sunday night." Brandon said when he saw me. I nodded before going to my room to slip some shoes on. "Ready?" he asked from by my door. "Yeah let's go get him." I said following Brandon down the steps and out to his car. We drove in silence until we reached the house. I walked up with Brandon right behind me and knocked on the door. "Hi I'm Callie, Jude's sister." I said when a woman came to the door. "Nice to meet you. Come in." she said letting Brandon and I in. "Jude, Callie is here." the lady said and I saw Jude sitting in the living room. "I guess he has a bug." the lady said to me and I nodded. "Let's get you home buddy." Brandon said lifting Jude into his arms. "Thank you for calling Lena and Stef." I said and the lady nodded. "I hate that the boys' sleep over got ruined but I'm sure that there will be another one soon." She said smiling. "Have a good night ma'am." Brandon said walking, with Jude in his arms, to the car. "Good night dear." the lady said after I followed Brandon to the car.
Once Jude was in the car Brandon called his mom. "Hey, Jude is burning up and throwing up. He looks really pale should I take him to the ER?" he asked. "Okay I guess we will see you there." he said after a pause. He hung up. "Jude buddy we have to go to the ER and Stef and Lena are gonna meet us there." Brandon said and I heard a groan from Jude. He hates hospitals since the day our mother died.
I kept an eye on Jude all the way to the hospital making sure he was still breathing. When we pulled up we saw Stef and Lena standing there waiting on us. Brandon parked and carried Jude all the way into the ER. "We have already checked him in and the nurse said that as soon as he got here that she would take him straight back." Lena said as we walked into the ER. "Is this the little boy you checked in Ms. Foster?" a nurse asked Stef and she nodded. "Okay well we only allow two people back here with a person." she said looking at all four of us. "Callie, Lena, you two go back there." Stef said and Lena and I nodded before following the nurse who was pushing the wheel chair that Brandon had placed Jude in.
After a few hours Lena looked at me. "You and Brandon go home and get some sleep. Tell Stef to come back here." Lena said and I shook my head. "I'm not leaving my brother." I said and Lena just looked at me. "Then I will tell Brandon and Stef to go home and I will be right back." I nodded as she walked out of the room. About five minutes later Lena walked in with the doctor right behind her. "We are going to keep him over night and see what happens but as of right now we don't know what is going on. He will be in room 504 which is on the fifth floor. So I will ask you to step out of here so we can get him on up there and only a parent or guardian can stay the night. The doctor said looking at me. "I am just his foster mother and this is his full blood sister is there anyway you can make an exception for her?" Lena asked and the doctor shook her head. "Unfortunately not. I wish I could but the head of the hospital is here so I can't." the doctor looked sad and I looked at Jude. "Hey buddy. You are gonna stay in the hospital tonight and Lena is gonna stay with you. I'm going to go home but I promise I will be here tomorrow okay." I said to Jude and he nodded. "I love you." I said as I kissed his forehead. "I love you too Callie." he said as me and Lena walked out of the room. "Take Brandon's car home and I will see you in the morning." Lena said handing me Brandon's car keys. Lena hugged me and I walked out of the hospital with tears in my eyes.
When I got home Stef was on the phone with her chief telling her that she wouldn't be going into work until Jude was out of the hospital. Brandon was sitting in the living room when I walked in. "Hey." he said and I smiled and handed him his keys. I walked upstairs, I wanted to be alone for now but I knew Brandon would follow to see if I'm okay. I made it all the way up the stairs before I felt someone's hand on my arm. I turned around and started to cry. Brandon hugged me to him and let me cry. He whispered little things to try and calm me but none of it worked. "Let's go sit and talk." Brandon said and I nodded. We walked into his room and sat on the bed. "Callie, Jude is going to be just fine. He probably just has the flu." Brandon said and I nodded knowing that he was right. "I know but the last time he was in the hospital was because of..." I stopped. Was I really read to tell him about Liam? I have never told anyone about him and I don't know if I could.
