It all started at Christmas.

The party

                            Brandon
As everyone flooded into the living room I got more and more nervous what if everyone saw us. "Brandon come help me out back." Callie said as she grabbed my hand. "Callie I don't think anyone saw anything-" I was cut off by when Callie placed her hand over my mouth. "Brandon it's ok. Maybe I should teach you to live a little sometime." My heart started racing when I heard Callie say that. "Maybe you just should." I said with a smirk. "Come on let's go in we should spend time with them while we can this isn't our permanent home." She said pulling me in the house. "Well maybe I want to spend time with you." I said as I put my arms around her lower back. "We have forever to spend together. You turn 18 in two weeks from today. You don't have that long with them you know." She made a point in exactly two weeks if I wasn't adopted I was out of the system. "Fine I'll go in but on Christmas Eve  you have to admit to me that we're dating so that I can take you on a real date not just sneaking kisses whenever no ones looking. Deal?" I asked. I don't know why but the idea of Callie being my girlfriend not just my foster sister, or the girl I kissed made me happier than I've ever been before. "Brandon Baker I think we have a deal." She told me putting out her hand but I pulled her in for a kiss instead.

When we walked inside everyone was still gathered in the living room. All of a sudden someone pounded on the door. Brandon slowly walked to the door. "Who's there?" He said is voice sound scary and intimidating. "B, it's Nick!" We heard the person on the other side of the door yell out of pure joy. It was Brandon's sister. "Nick! I thought I wouldn't ever see you again. Oh my god." Brandon started to cry. "Come on man up Brandon." Nick said parting form the hug. "Hi Nick. I'm Stef and this Lena we're fostering your brother." Stef told Nick. "Listen can I go clean up. I mean look at everyone else and look at me." Nick had a point she was a runaway and probably didn't have a shower. "Yeah. The bathrooms right here." Brandon guided her towards the bathroom. "Nick this is my... Foster sister? Callie," Brandon made it sound more like a question than a statement. I could tell he was nervous. "Hey Callie. Um B I hope you know I'm not gonna be... Like living here or anything." Nick looked down at her shoes she knew she upset him. "W-wait why you just, you." Brandon couldn't even talk. "B it's okay I'm... going to a group home for a little while." Nick knew it wasn't actually okay but she wanted to say bye to him. "Listen if I knew it would be this hard I wouldn't have come!" She seemed kind of annoyed with Brandon. I just took his hand and gave it a squeeze I knew he was hurt. "I'm leaving soon if you wanna come then come." Nick wasn't really going to a group home she was running again. "Please Nick stay." Brandon whispered as he grabbed her wrist. "Nah you and your girlfriend have fun." Nick
had an evil look in her eye. "She's not my girlfriend." He could hardly talk. "Oh yeah that's why you're holding hands!" She yelled. "Yo Stef, Lena I'm out but you might wanna watch out for those two love birds!" She yelled as she pointed at use. "Nick!" Brandon started to run after her. "Callie can you come to the kitchen." Stef said sternly. "Ok." I was gonna be removed wasn't I. "Callie you two know the rule that foster siblings can't date don't you?" Stef looked pissed. "Yeah. Nothing's going on between Brandon and I." I was lying straight through my teeth. "Then what the hell was that all about?" Stef yelled. I felt tears form in my eyes. "I'm sorry honey. We just don't want you guys to end up in group homes." Lena apologized for Stef yelling. "Nick was just mad 'cause Brandon was really upset that she wasn't staying with us." I tried my best to sound tough. Only one thing was going through my head, me and Brandon had to break this off. "Callie I know this has been a long day. If you want we can end the party early." Stef looked at me with pain in her eyes. "No Stef. I'm just gonna go find Brandon." I almost started balling my eyes out. When I finally find Brandon, I freeze. "Brandon why don't you go back with me." I said giving him a sad smile. " Callie I lo-" I cut him off "Brandon I think we need to break up!" His shoulders drop and his eyes fill with tears. "Why?" He looked up at me he lost both his girls in one painful night. "We just can't do this." I feel tears form in my eyes. "Did you ever even have feelings for me?" He knew the answer was yes but he want to hear me say it. "Brandon I knew I loved you the second I laid eyes on you that's what's so bad about this." I said.
