Feelings Unmasked ('The Fosters' One-Shot)

Callie'sPOV

I sat on my bed looking at the math problems I still had to complete, but my mind was far from math. My mind was 100% on Brandon. Ever since that night he helped me save Jude I've felt myself get closer to him. I've never trusted a guy after what happened with Liam, but once I met Brandon I felt myself fall in love with him each and everyday, but yet I still push him away for Judes sake.

I've been ignoring him lately because I'm afraid that one look at him and all my feeling will unmask. He's tried every way possible to talk to me, but I just walk away before he can. He's back with Talya and that just hurts me even more.

A knock on the bedroom door snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked up from my unfinished math problems to see the one person I wasn't prepared to see. Brandon.

"Can I talk to you?" he asked

"Actually I have to finish my math homework, so I don't really have time to talk right now" I said

"Callie, why have you been ignoring me?" he asked

"I havent" I lied

"That's a total lie. I haven't talk to you in over 2 and a half weeks and God knows I've tried to multiple times."he said

"I've just been busy"

"Yeah, ignoring me, and we are talking right now wether you like it or not" He said then closed the door and locking it

"Look Brandon I'm really not in the mood to talk about this" I said

"Well to bad, now tell me why you've been ignoring me" he said

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"Fine, you want to know why I've been ignoring you" he nodded. I took a deep breath feeling tears form in my eyes. I began immediately noticing my voice scratching because of the tears. "Ever since you helped me save Jude I've started to fall in love with you, but I know it's wrong, but at the same time it felt so right. Every time we have our little talks or our jam sessions I always see this guy that I became soft with. I see the guy who's seen me at my most vulnerable spot." I felt tears stream down my cheek. "But then I see you with Talya, and I see how happy you look when you're with her, and I can't help but think about how that'll never be me. Then when I hear you talk about how much you love her, and how much you want to spend the rest of your life with her I can't help but want you to say that about me. Every time I think about how that will never be us I feel tears well up in my eyes. I haven't felt truly loved since my mother died until I met you. I can't help that whenever I see you I wish that one day we will have a happily ever after together."

I took a shaky breath with tears still falling. "I had always thought of myself as the worthless, stupid, screwup girl that moves from foster home to foster, and that no one will ever give a scrap about me, but then I came here and met you, and that all changed. You made me feel like I was the most special, loved, amazing girl in the world. Then the next you're with Talya and I know that all that stuff I thought about was useless because it will never be true" I paused and looked straight in his eyes "So there, now you know why I'm so afraid to talk to you. Now you know why I'm always on the verge of tears. Because I wish that I had a happily ever after with the most amazing I've ever met"

Without saying anything I walked over to the door, unlocked it and ran out and downstairs and out the back door. I went to the tree and sat down letting the tears fall freely down my face.

No one was here except Brandon and I, Mariana and Jesus were with Lexi, Jude was at Conners, and Lena and Stef were out having a day to themselves.

I looked up at the sky and watched as the clouds went by in an extremely slow pace. I wonder what it's like beyond the clouds. Freedom. Maybe

Just then I felt a pull on my arm causing me to stand up. Then I noticed it was Brandon. Before I could say anything else his lips were on mine.

BrandonsPOV

*Right after Callie storms out*

Did I her right.

Everything just stood there in my mind. She felt the same way I felt about her. She felt the same way about Talya and I the same way I felt about her and Wyatt.

I knew what I had to do. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and dialed the number. After the third ring she picked up.

"Hello?" She said into the phone

"Hey, listen Talya I have to talk to you." I said

"What about?"

"I don't think we should do this. To me it's not working out, but something isn't right between us anymore"

"Its Callie isn't it" she said calmly

"What no"

"It is, come on Brandon it's pretty obvious. Everyone can tell your in love with her except her. Look I'm not mad, I'm not ecstatic about it, but I'm just happy that you found someone who makes you as happy as she does." she said

"Really?"

"Yeah, I saw this coming. I mean of course deep down I tried to deny that it was just in my head and I was being paranoid, but I had to face the facts one way or another."

"Can we still be friends?" I asked

"Of course. Now what are you doing talking to me, go get your girl" she chuckled

"Okay I will, ill see you in school"

"Bye, and good luck" she said then hung up

I put my phone back in my pocket and went downstairs. I looked around for Callie and then finally spotting her underneath the tree in the backyard.

I made my way towards her and grabbed her arm and pulling her to her feet. She looked at me and before she could say anything my lips were on hers.

CalliesPOV

After I realized what was happening I finally started to kiss back. Our lips moved in perfect sync together.

After about a minute we separated.

"I love you, Callie. There is no one else I would rather spend the rest of my life with other than you. I'm so in love with you. I don't care what anyone says because I don't care. All I care about is spending everyday and night knowing that you're not going to be with anyone except me. I love you, and I'm only ever going to love you" By the end I had tears flowing down my eyes

"I love you, too Brandon" I said as my voice cracked

Maybe my happily ever after will come true, as long as Brandon is there right by my side
