A Different Type of Family

Fire Dreams

Several hours went by and Callie woke up from her ordeal. Bailey is still touch and go since she did drugs. Ty came back a few hours ago and brought clothes and food, while Armando came for Lexi and hugged her tight. Jesus drove since his dad was bad off. 

"Are you okay baby girl?" he asked. She nodded. 

"I was able to get out. I should have looked for her. I tried to get back in," she added.

"She will be fine," Armando added. "Let's get you home and you can't stay."

Lexi nodded numb as she finally cried. Lena and Monte ran in and they were sent to their respective wives. Lena opened the door to Callie's room and tears formed. Jesus came to her and hugged her as well. 

"Hi," Lena added. "Babe?"

Stef eyed her wife and they hugged. "She is in shock."

"I would be too," Lena added. "How was she overlooked?"

"Rita thought all the girls' were out," Stef added. "Bailey started the fire?"

"How?" Lena asked.

"Drugs and alcohol," Stef added. Lena shook her head. 

"The police want to charge her. After this she goes to juvie," Stef added. "Callie almost died."

Lena nodded as Mike ran in. He looked tired. "How is she?"

"Good. Just sleeping and in shock," Stef added. "We can't she ever catch a break?"

"She is tough like the both of you," Mike added.

"Like us three," Lena added. Mike nodded in a smile.

"Where are the boys?" the ladies asked.

"I left them up in Palomar. I needed to be here and I left the older twins and Aaron Jr. in charge," Mike added. 

Callie woke up and eyed her three parents. "I'm sorry."

"Oh my beautiful baby girl. Don't be," Stef added. "This was not your fault."

"Mommy is right baby buggy," Lena added.

"Hi my precious girl. How are you?" Mike asked.

"Good, but hungry," Callie added. Mike nodded and went to McDonald's with Ty across the way.

"How is she?" Ty asked.

"Good and hungry. They want to keep her in till Monday," Mike added. Ty nodded.

In Bailey's room, she was better and was treated for her injuries. Monte and Jenna eyed her worried. "I can't believe she caused a fire?" Jenna asked. 

"I know," Monte added. "But she needs help."

"Callie almost died and she could have killed the other girls," Jenna added. 

"What are you saying?" Monte asked.

"She might not get better and I won't risk our other kids lives for Bailey," Jenna added. Monte could not blame her wife. "It is not her fault."

"No. But she keeps making stupid mistakes," Jenna added. "It's our family or Bailey?"

"What?" Monte asked. "She is our daughter."

"She is your daughter," Jenna added. "I need to go."

Bailey was awake and better and doing much better. Two cops came in.

"Can we help you?" Jenna and Monte asked.

"We are cops. We are here to take Bailey Anne Hale to juvie until her court date," they added. Jenna and Monte more were shocked.
