Callie's POV:

Brandon and I are officially together, and it is amazing. We spend basically every free moment we have together. We sold our apartments and we are now living in the same house as moms and Jude, Mariana, Jesus, and Lexi. There has been some tension between Jesus and Mariana and Lexi, but I don't really care enough to ask. Jude is doing a lot better. He loves being back in the house with us, and everyone including Jude really supports our relationship now. Lexi needed a bed to sleep in, so she sleeps in Mariana's room in my bed. Brandon got a king size bed so now we sleep in the same room every night. It's okay because we have never done anything yet. He knows that I can't right now because I am still not ready after Liam. I couldn't fall asleep that night, so I decided to talk to Brandon.

"Hey."

"Hey."

"I can't sleep."

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah I just have a lot on my mind."

"Like what?"

"Like what will happen with Stef and Lena, everything that's happening with you and me, and Jude. I just feel like I have all of this pressure on me to figure out everything."

"I don't know what will happen with Stef and Lena. They seem like they forgot about it or they are just trying to move on. Don't worry about Jude. He can handle himself. What is going on with you and me? I thought that we were fine. We shared our feelings and we are together now."

"We are and I love you, but it's just hard."

"What's hard?"

"Everything. I feel like I am running out of options. I don't have a choice anymore."

"A choice? For what?"

"I can't decide anything. Everyone makes my decisions for me. I don't know what I want, so people have to tell me. So what choice do I have?"

"You know what you want."

I leaned in to kiss him. Our lips flowed perfectly together. We eventually had to stop, but that was the perfect make out session.

"I know now."

I gave him one last kiss goodnight, and with that we were fast asleep.

Lexi's POV:

Mariana told me about Jesus and Emma and at first I was really mad, but then I thought about it. If a guy can tell you that he loves you that many times and be lying to your face every time, he wasn't meant for me. I forgave him for everything with Callie because he explained everything, but I can't push him to love me. He texted me late last night which sent chills all down my body that he wants to talk to me without me pushing him.

Jesus: You awake?"

Lexi: Yeah. How come you finally want to text me?"

Jesus: I was stupid. I messed up.

Lexi: No you didn't. You were right. If you can tell me that you love me that many times and be lying to my face every time then you obviously aren't right for me. I know that I was begging you, and I do love when we are together, but you are happy with Emma.

Jesus: Emma and I were meant to be friends. She broke up with me because I didn't love her like I love you.

Lexi: How can you just get back into a relationship that fast? You break up with me and that day you get together with Emma. You break up with Emma and you come crawling back to me. I can't do it.

Jesus: I'm not crawling back to you. I'm realizing that I am so stupid. I never lied to you about loving you. I needed time to think about you and me. What you said made me realize what we had. We know it's right. You wanted another chance and here it is.

Lexi: Okay, but I just want to let you know one thing.

Jesus: And what would that be?

Lexi: I Love you and always will. Whenever we kiss, I just fall in love with you more and more.

Jesus: I feel the same way. Goodnight. I love you.

I didn't text back because I was just so relieved, and I couldn't ruin anything. I am kind of relieved that Jesus and Emma are done.
