It all started at Christmas.

Getting to know him

(This story will be told from Callie and Brandon's point of view.)

Callie
Brandon and I walked into the kitchen and watched the people that just brought us in the house talking. "Callie I'd like you to meet my partner Stef." I gave her a weird look. "So your dykes?" Brandon and I said in unison. Stef laughed awkwardly. "Stef who is this?!" She said her eyes wide open pointing at Brandon who was standing next to me. "That's Brandon we're fostering him for a little while." Steff stated nervously. "And who is this," she said pointing at me almost harshly, Brandon picked up on my disappointment and he grabbed my hand and squeezed it. "This is Callie and she will be staying with us for a little while." Lena looked at Steff as she raised her eyebrows. "Wait... We just brought home two new kids on the same day?" Lena asked obviously knowing the answer. "Lena where did you get Callie?" Stef asked as she looked at my bruises. "Juvie, I got Callie from juvie." Lena said trying not to upset Stef. "Oh great, just great!" Stef laughed sarcastically. Brandon looked down at me then back up at them. "Stef you got me from juvie too." Brandon said in my defense. "Why don't you two go outside for a minute." We obeyed and walked out the door. "Why'd you do that?" I asked trying my best to look Brandon in the eye. "We just got here, it's a new family a new house you didn't need that." Brandon smiled as he looked down at me. "Well u didn't have to." I whispered. "One second." He ran inside probably to avoid anymore conversation. But to my surprise moments later he came out with rubbing alcohol and cotton balls. "I don't know about you but I need to clean these cuts before they get even more disgusting." He put the alcohol on the cotton ball and handed it to me I just gave him a blank stare. "Well I can't really see my cuts you're gonna need to help me out." I grabbed the cotton ball and started to clean his cuts. He flinched at the contact but he got used to it pretty quickly. Once I was done he got another cotton ball. "Your turn." I started at him wide eyed. "If it hurts just squeeze my hand." He put out his hand for me I slowly moved my hand to his. "So miss Callie how you liking them so far?" He asked trying to break the silence. "I mean Lena's ok but Stef no I don't trust her." I tried to sound less hateful towards Stef than I really was. "Callie, Brandon our other kids Mariana and Jesus are gonna spend the night at a friends house so we're just gonna order in is Chinese food ok?" Lena smiled at us until she saw us holding hands I forgot that I didn't let go. "Sounds good." Brandon said as I let go of his hand.
I gave Brandon a death look and said, "She didn't seem to happy that the two juvie kids where holding hands." I stated. "What you mean like this?" Brandon grabbed my hand before I could pull away and laughed "Chill Callie maybe I'll just have to teach you to live a little." He smirked and I couldn't help but return the look. I know it against the rules to even think this but Brandon's pretty hot.
BRANDON
Callie was pretty cute and she had a great smile even though her bottom lip had taken a hit... Wait Brandon no what are you thinking she's your foster sister stop it. When the food finally arrived I watched Callie struggle with the chopsticks I was going to show her how to use the but I need to keep my distance.
