I looked up to see Stef's reaction, my vision blurry due to my eyes welling up with tears. It felt so good to get the dangerous secret out, despite the fear I felt to see her reaction. Stef looked so shocked and surprised, and I immediately saw the anger in her eyes.
"Oh God." She whispered angrily "When was this?"
"At Idyllwild" I fearfully whispered. My heart bet fast but all my tears had seemed to dry up and now all I felt was scared.
"God Callie. I thought things were over between you two." she growled "Why didn't you tell me? Why did we follow through with your adoption?!" She got up and started pacing. She looked furious.
"I'm sorry. I thought it would be easy to forget I guess... But I cant." I looked at the floor, and felt shame heat up my body. Suddenly all the guilt and embarrassment was too much and I was so ashamed in front of Stef that I sprinted out the room. I ran out the front door and down the front steps, breathing in the fresh air rapidly. I took sharp, gasping breaths as panic filled me up from head to toe. I felt myself fill with tears, and powerful emotions for the thousandth time that day. I was running down to the footpath when I smashed into Brandon. He was coming back from who knows where and we both didn't see each other until I crashed into his chest.
"Callie!" Brandon said, forgetting how he was supposed to be ignoring me and instead looking worried and protective at the state of me. "Callie what's wrong?"
I let out a gasping sob, and pulled him so that he would follow me. I led him into the small private alleyway off the side of our house, remembering how we had our first kiss there. I let my loud and panicked breathing fill the silence as I stopped and turned around to face him.
"Brandon" I gasped "I'm sorry. I told Stef. I couldn't hold it in anymore."
"Callie what are you talking -"
"That we had sex Brandon. I told her. Because I can't deal with you ignoring me, and I cant deal with the constant loneliness and sadness I've felt since I've been adopted. OK? And I'm sorry that I have stuffed everything up. But I couldn't keep going the way I felt." I cried desperately. 
"Callie" Brandon softly spoke while moving closer to me."I don't mind OK? If that's what you want, then I'm happy." 
"What's going to happen?" I fearfully asked as I inched closer to Brandon who I longed to touch. 
"I don't know." he whispered as he slowly pushed a lone strand of my hair behind my ear "But it will work out. We've got each other right?"
I nodded and smiled the first real smile I had had since two weeks ago. Brandon stepped closer to me until our noses were almost touching. I didn't care that right now he was my legal sibling. Not one bit. He would never feel like my brother. This confirmation in my head was all I needed. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into me. Our lips connected, and I felt the instant pure joy I felt whenever I kissed him. Our lips moved in sync as he moved his arm to the small of my back, and under my shirt. He trailed his fingers along the bare skin of my back, and I moaned, while I slipped my tongue into his mouth. Oh God, I could do this all day, I thought. I pulled him closer to me and kissed him harder, and his hand slid from the back to the front of my body. My hands ran through his hair whilst our lips moved together passionately. I felt his hands tingle up till they reached my breasts and I moaned. I pulled my lips away for a second. 
"I love you Brandon." I moaned "and I want to be with you" 
He smiled softly at me back and whispered "I love you too."
He pulled me into a hug that I so desperately needed and I rested my head on his shoulder whilst taking in his scent that I had missed so much in the past few weeks. 
"We should go back" he indicated towards the house and I nodded, knowing that we would have to face Moms sooner or later. He grabbed my hand and we walked silently back to the house, wondering what was to come.
