It all started at Christmas.

Christmas Day

Brandon
I had just woken up and I was still hugging Callie I tried to get up but she put her arms around me and didn't let go. I was still in pain from last night but I forgot about it when she was sitting near me. She didn't even have to be next to me but as long as I could see her I was happy. I had no idea what this feeling was. I felt different. I can't explain the feeling I got when I was around Callie. It's like this whole time I was drowning and she was a breath of fresh air. I was finally happy.
Callie
I woke up in Brandon's arms. It felt great to be wrapped up in his arms. I pressed my head on his chest. I felt him place a warm and welcoming kiss on my head. He must have thought I was still asleep. I felt safe in his arms. He was the most amazing person I have ever met. He was so protective. He was cute. He was so kind. He was gentle but strong. If I had to pick in between him and a family I would... I would pick him no questions asked. He was just... Everything. I never thought I needed anyone but then... He came.
Brandon
I hear everyone yelling at us to wake up. "Callie." I kiss her forehead softly. "Callie we gotta get up they want to open their presents." I feel her move trying to stay asleep. "Come on Callie." She eventually looked into my tired eyes and said, "Do we have to go? Can't we just stay here and cuddle forever?" As much as I wanted to we had to get up. "I wish we could Callie but you know we can't." I slowly sat up and I pulled her up with me. "No. I want to stay here with you." She pressed a gentle kiss on my chin. I smiled.
Callie
I was still kinda asleep but I knew what was going on. I knew what I was doing when I kissed him. "Callie let's go." He tried to pick me up but he had one arm in a sling. "I'm getting up just give me a second." I didn't want him to hurt his arm trying to drag me out of bed. "So it's really Christmas?" I asked it didn't feel like Christmas the past few days were so bad that if it was really Christmas like everyone said then I didn't feel it. Brandon looked down at me.

She is so amazing. "So it's really Christmas?" She asked. "Yes Callie now get up so we can open our presents and go back to sleep." I laughed at her question. "Ok! Going back to sleep means going back to cuddling." Callie joked. We both know how it feels to have the one you loved ripped away from you so we wanted to spend each and every second together. When we get down everyone's waiting for us. "Ok let's get to the presents!" Jesus yells. "Calm down man they're just some gifts." Callie tries to say without laughing."Oh Callie you still don't know? My moms always give the best gifts! So no my silly foster sister they are not just gifts!" Jesus laughs at his own crazy happiness. "Callie this ones for you and Brandon this ones for you CPS sent them." Lena said handing us the gifts. "Oh great pity gifts my favorite!" I say sarcastically. "Open them!" Stef pushes. I open mine and it's a picture frame with me and Callie's picture in it and on the bottom it said 'I love my sister to the moon and back!' "Wow that's cheesy." Callie said as she looked at the frame. "Open yours Cal." I said. "Fine. But they're probably the same thing." She stated. "Nah I doubt yours says I love my sister." I joked. "You know what I mean Brandon." She laughed. When she opened her gift it was a frame with a different picture of us that said 'I have the best big brother in the world!' It looked like something you would put in a babies room. "Wow we're not even a year apart and they still consider you my big brother!" She said. "Well here you guys go." Stef handed us the rest of our gifts. I got shoes, some new clothes which I really needed, a copy of the house key which meant a lot to me, my permit that I had got revoked when I went to juvie ( I don't know how they managed to get it for me after only a few days), and because obviously everyone knows how much pictures mean to me I got a picture of the Fosters family photo with me and Callie cropped into it.
Callie
I was a little nervous to open my gifts but I trusted them so I opened them anyway. I got clothes, a bracelet, new converses, the same picture that B got, and a watch. After the rest of the kids left me and Brandon were home alone. "So do I get a Christmas kiss?" Brandon asked me. "Hmmm... I don't know." I said as I put my arms around his neck. "You know you want to." I put his arms around my waist and pulled me towards him. "In your dreams lover boy." I laughed. "Oh come on after all this time you can't even give me a kiss?" He asked. "Not even a peck." I teased. "Well then looks like I gotta make my move babe." Brandon said as he bent down to kiss me. Our kiss was long and full of passion. He would pick me up so that he wouldn't have to lean over the whole time since I was shorter than him. We stopped when we heard someone open the door. "Until next time Cal." Brandon said giving me one last kiss. He's amazing.
