Last On Friends with Benefits...
Brandon and I headed upstairs and before I could make it to my room he stopped me. "Come here for a sec." he said pulling me into his room. "What has been going on lately? You have been completely avoiding me since we had our talk." he said and I looked down. "I don't want you to look at me and see some weak girl that can't really do anything. I want you to see me as what I am. Someone who, even though I didn't have anyone but Jude, did something with my life. But then I guess you can't see that because I haven't done anything with my life yet but that isn't the point. I know you see me as damaged and I can't stand that feeling know that you see that." I said with tears down my face. "Callie I don't see you like that. I see you for what you are. A girl who is scared to death of her past. But also a girl who will do something with her future. You did everything in your past to keep your little brother safe, even if it put you in danger like the night that we went and got Jude from that horrible foster home that the two of you were in. You are far from weak and not even close to damaged so never say that again." he said coming to hug me. I did what I thought I would only do when we were about to have sex. I kissed him, not even a sweet kiss. It was a kiss full of passion, want and need. Brandon was what I needed and I knew that from the moment I met him.
The next day, after school we all went to look at the new house. It was huge and the guest house was the most perfect thing I had ever seen. There was a pool in the back yard and everything about the house was just perfect. I went ahead and picked my room which Brandon didn't mind at all. He let me have the room with it's own bathroom connected and I loved it. I could already see what it would look like with all of my things in there. It was amazing.
"So how do you kids like it?" Lena asked walking in. "It's great. Thank you so much." I said and she hugged me. "You are very welcome. Now we can go and get paint to let you give it your own little touch if you would want to." she said and I smiled. "This is the first place I have been able to put my own touch to. I would love that." I said and she laughed. "When Stef gets home I can talk to her about you and Brandon going tomorrow after school to pick out paint for the guest house." she said walking away.
Brandon walked over to me. "Now we wont have to worry about mom and Lena being downstairs." he whispered in my ear and I smiled. Before he could walk away I pulled him over to one of the counters in the place. "We really need to talk. We can't just have sex with out condoms again. I am going to talk to Lena later on tonight about me getting on birth control but until we have at least one of those things we can't do anything. I want kids but I don't want them right now. Not while we are still in school." I rushed and Brandon smiled. "I completely agree with you. That is why I am going to stop by the drug store and get a couple boxes of condoms." he said and I sighed with relief. "Let's get back to everyone else so we can go home and start packing." he said and I smiled before following him to the main house.
"I'm going to walk home if that is okay. It's only a few blocks." Brandon said and he looked at me. "Okay. Callie?" Lena asked and I looked to her. "Are you going to walk with him or ride with us?" she asked and I laughed. "I'm ready to finish packing so I am so riding with you." I said walking out of the house with Mariana and Jesus. "Brandon be careful and I will see you at home." Lena said as we all got in the car and drove away from Brandon.
When we pulled up to the house I jumped out of the car and rushed up to mine and Mariana's room. I looked for the few empty boxes that I had gotten to pack and started filling them with the little things that I had started getting when I had moved in with the Fosters. "Whoa slow down we don't start moving in for two more weeks." Mariana said coming in and sitting on her bed. "I know but I am just packing everything but some of my clothes. That way I won't be waiting until the last minute to start packing." I said and she laughed. "You are more excited about this move than I am." she said and I stopped and sat down before laughing. "I guess so. I mean I have been moving around a lot and knowing that this is a good move with the family I can't wait." I said and started packing again.
Within an hour all of my little things were packed and Brandon walked in the room. "Hey can you help me pack up some of my things?" he asked and I nodded before going with him into his room. He closed the door and I smiled knowing that we wouldn't be putting things in boxes just yet. "I got the condoms and I started thinking. The last time we had sex. I didn't use a condom." he said and my eyes went wide. "Brandon are you serious?" I said turning to look at him. "As a heart attack." he said sitting on his bed. "It's to late for the morning after pill isn't it?" I asked and he nodded. "What are we going to do if I am? How will your mom and Lena take it? Or the whole family for that matter?" I asked and he shook his head. "I don't know but if we go and talk to mom and Lena know they wont want to kill us later." he said and I nodded my head he was right but I was really scared to talk to Stef about this. "You talk to your mom and I will talk to Lena." I said before walking out of his room.
I went to find Lena. She was in the back yard sitting on the swing. "L-Lena can I talk to you?" I asked and she smiled before nodding. "What is it sweetheart?" she asked. "So a few nights ago Brandon and I... we had sex. He just told me th-that he didn't use a c-condom." I said. Her smile dropped but she was still nodding. "I am glad that you can come to talk to me about this. How many nights ago was this?" she asked and I had to think. "Four days ago." I stated and she nodded. "When are you supposed to start your next period?" she asked and I smiled. "Four weeks from now." I said and she nodded. "Well in four weeks we will see what happens. I'm guessing that you are having Brandon talk to Stef." she said and I nodded. "Tell him not to worry about it. I will keep this a secret for you until the four weeks is up. If you are pregnant then I will talk to her for you. If not then she doesn't have to know." she said and I smiled with a tear rolling down my face. "Thank you so much Lena." I said going to hug her. "You are welcome but I don't want the two of you having unprotected sex." she said and I laughed. "When Brandon said he would walk home he stopped by the drug store and picked up some condoms and I was hopping to get on birth control but for now I don't think we will be having sex." I said and she laughed. "Alright well go tell Brandon." she said and I nodded before hurrying off to find him again.
I walked in and saw that he was sitting in the living room as nervous as could be. "Brandon Lena told me to tell you that she will talk to your mom if I am pregnant but we have to wait a little while to find out." I said and I could see him relax a little. "Alright." he said getting up and coming to hug me. But before he reached me I heard Mariana. "What do you mean find out that you're pregnant?" she said coming down the rest of the stairs.
