Callie and A.J. snuck away from Jesus and Mariana's 16th birthday party without Stef or Lena seeing them. Callie knew her moms wouldn't be pleased to know she left without telling them, but she wanted some time with A.J. away from everyone and while Brandon wasn't at home. Callie rolled her eyes to herself. Brandon was ridiculous telling her she didn't need to flaunt her boyfriend in front of him — what made him think they were anything other than brother and sister now? What made him think it was okay for him to tell her what to do? It wasn't. She'd made a mistake when she thought she couldn't be adopted. A horrible mistake she couldn't take back. She didn't love Brandon. She knew that. It had been — well, she'd thought she knew it had been — that Brandon was going to be her last link to being part of the Adams Foster family. She'd been so wrong. She knew her moms would never stop fighting for her. At least she had known deep down. Even Jude wasn't, in her mind, going to link her to her family if she was taken out of her home again. But she would be eighteen in a year and knew she would be able to be part of the family if she was with Brandon. In retrospect, she'd been an idiot. She knew it then and she knew it now. But, she didn't love Brandon and Brandon most certainly had no say in her life. He wasn't her parent. She had plenty of those around now. Mom, Mama, and Donald and Robert. For the first time in her life she didn't need another parent in her court. And Brandon tried to be just that. She'd told him. She told him he wasn't anything more than a brother to her, and it would remain that. She had never loved Brandon. She didn't even like him the way she liked A.J. He was an annoying older brother who constantly pissed her off. "Let's go to my room," Callie told A.J., grabbing his hand and pulling him up the stairs. This. This was wha she wanted and needed. A.J. just got her. He knew her. He understood her. He asked her if things were okay with her since Liam — no one had ever done that. Brandon sure hadn't asked if she was okay before or after. Once they were in the room, she started shedding her clothes, watching as A.J. did the same. "I'm taking Jesus and we are going to take Ana home and then we are going home, Love," Stef said. She was looking around for the rest of her brood. "Do you need me to take any of the other kids with me? Mariana — I have Jesus — Brandon said he was taking Cortni home — Jude ..." Stef looked around, spotting her children as she talked to her wife. "I don't see Callie. Did she ask you if she could leave," Lena asked. She'd been looking for the kids along with Stef. "No, I didn't. I haven't seen A.J. in a while either," Stef said, irritated. She had told all of her children except Brandon they needed to ride home with her or Lena. The only way Callie could have gone anywhere was to walk or get a ride with someone else if they weren't here. "I'll track her," Stef sighed in frustration, pulling her phone out of her back pocket. A few seconds later she looked at her phone and then at Lena. "She's at home," she said. "Okay, we will talk to her when we get home to discuss her sneaking off. I have to get Ana out of here. I will see you at home," Stef said, leaning in and kissing her wife, then heading to the exit. Callie kissed A.J. She was on top of him, both in nothing but their underwear. They were in an intense, passionate make-out session at that point, though Callie and A.J. both knew things were getting closer and closer to actual sex. "Right there ..." Callie whispered as A.J.'s hands roamed. Neither heard the front door open and close. Lena walked up the stairs to talk to Callie about leaving the party without telling anyone. At least, Lena thought to herself, she'd better have come home and not be out since it was past ten, which she knew good and well was her curfew when she wasn't with her parents and hadn't asked to be out in the first place. She'd even be in more trouble if her phone was at home and she wasn't. Lena knew she would have had to bring her home and leave if that was the case. It was her brother and sister's birthday party after all, and she'd just left without a word. She knew better than that. Lena hadn't told Stef, but she suspected Callie expected them not to notice she had left at all because most of the attention was on Mariana and Jesus. She also wondered if Callie had planned on coming back to the party with the hope of no one being the wiser. "Callie," Lena called as she opened her daughters' bedroom door. "Shit, shit, SHIT," Lena heard her daughter say as she was opening the door. "Callie Quinn —" Lena's eyes widened, she swung the door open the rest of the way, "CALLIE QUINN ADAMS FOSTER! Have you lost your mind, young lady," Lena yelled as she saw her naked daughter make a mad dash to grab a blanket on the floor and an equally naked A.J. try to cover himself with a sheet on the bed. "FREEZE," Lena yelled again. "What's going on, Mama," Mariana asked coming up the stairs. "Mariana, back downstairs. Now," Lena said quickly, the anger evident in her voice. Mariana wanted no part in it, and hurried back down the steps, grabbing Jude on her way down. "Mama, I ..." Callie started to say. "No ma'am! You take yourself into mine and Mom's room, find some clothes to put on from the dryer, and then sit on our bed. We will talk when Mom gets home," Lena said, eyeing her daughter carefully. "Mama, please, do we have to tell Mom? She overreacts to things ... please, Mama. Don't make me tell her," Callie pleaded, holding the blanket around her even tighter. She was positive if she begged and cried enough, Lena would let her off the hook. She was the easy mom. Stef was the hard mom. "Oh, don't even try it, Callie Quinn Adams Foster. You have dug your hole tonight." "But, Mama..." Callie cried, tears beginning fall down her face. This was a side of Lena she'd not really ever seen. Sure, she'd had a lecture here and there. Yes, she'd been in trouble a bit. But Lena had never yelled at her like this. She'd never felt the radiating heat of anger coming from her Mama's very being. "Do as I have said, Callie Quinn. NOW." Callie swallowed and nodded. She knew that tone. She wasn't yelling anymore. She was quiet and dead serious. Lena was more than serious. Callie took the hint and tightened the blanket around her thin frame and sighed. She knew she was about to have to walk past Lena. As she did, Lena gently grabbed her shoulder and stopped Callie, forcing her to look her in the eye. "You know Mom and I love you. Nothing can change that. But you also know you are in a lot of trouble," Lena whispered so A.J. could not hear what she was telling her daughter. Callie nodded, tears slipping down her face. "Do we really have to tell Mom, Mama," Callie whispered as well. She didn't want A.J. to hear her practically begging her mother not to tell her other mother she'd been caught having sex in her bedroom. "Yes. Now go to our room, Callie. I will escort A.J. downstairs to wait for Mike. A.J., get dressed. You have three minutes to get dressed and I will be back," Lena said, deciding to walk Callie to her room herself. Callie sniff. She was dead. She knew it. Her mothers proposed safe sex, but preferred abstinence. Callie was well aware she nor her siblings were allowed to have people over without asking, especially if neither mom was at home. She knew she wasn't allowed to go anywhere without asking. She knew the rules. She just hadn't thought they'd notice. Callie felt Lena's hand on the small of her back as she was gently guided to her mothers' bedroom. Lena stood Callie near her bed and then went into the bathroom for a few seconds before coming out. "I want you to shower. I laid out your pajamas and a towel and washcloth. You do not have to wash your hair because I am only giving you ten minutes." "Mama, please ..." Callie said, tearing up again. "Callie, enough. You disobeyed us tonight and you knew having sex was not a good idea ..." "Oh, so it's okay for Brandon and Jesus to have sex, it's even okay for Jude to hook up with Noah, but if I have sex I'm in trouble? Double standards much, LENA," Callie screamed at her mother in a last ditch effort to save her self. Lena took a deep breath and looked at her daughter. She knew Callie was upset. And yes, the child was in trouble, but probably not as much as she thought she was, though her attitude wasn't helping her out any. "Shower, Callie. Now. I will be back in a few minutes," Lena said, and then left the room, leaving the bedroom door cracked open. Callie turned around and fell face first into her moms' pillows, crying with every ounce of being she had. How could she have gotten caught? It had been foolproof. Callie sighed, dropped her blanket on the floor by her Mama's side of the bed, and then went into the bathroom to take her quick shower. Lena led A.J. down the stairs and out the front door where she knew Mike was waiting on him. Thankfully, by the time she'd gone back to Callie and Mariana's room, A.J. was dressed and waiting, staring at his shoes. Stef was pulling up into the drive at the same time Lena was walking A.J. out. A.J. hung his head. He knew this wasn't going to go over well with Callie's moms. He wasn't even sure how it was going to go over with Mike. He hadn't really done anything wrong since moving in with Mike if you didn't count running off with his brother. "Come on, A.J. Let's get home," Mike said. He'd been filled in during a very quick phone call from Lena. He also knew Stef didn't know yet and Lena wanted to make sure Mike and A.J. were gone before she had a chance to go all mama bear on A.J. or Mike. "What was their hurry," Stef asked coming up to the porch, Jesus close behind her. "We need to talk," Lena said quickly. Stef's radar immediately went through the roof. She immediately knew it had something to do with Callie since the teen had snuck away from the party earlier. Lena could tell Stef was about to talk, but she cut her off, "Upstairs, Stef. We need to talk upstairs." That sent up every warning signal Stef had flaring further, so she followed Lena closely. "Jesus, kitchen. Get something to eat, I know you are probably hungry," Lena said. Jesus knew that was code for stay downstairs. He didn't want any part in whatever was going on, so he quickly headed towards the kitchen. "Love, what is going on? Where is Callie? Why was Mike so quick to get out of here," Stef asked once they were in their room. "Our daughter is in the bathroom. She should be out in a few minutes. I told her she had ten minutes about seven minutes ago." "Why is her blanket in here," Stef said, and then her eyes grew, widening with realization. "You caught them having sex? Callie Quinn Adams Foster, you have two seconds to be out of that shower before I come in there to get you," Stef yelled as she cracked open the bathroom door. "Mom," Callie yelled — and whined — back once the door to the bathroom was opened. "Do not even go there, young lady. Come on. Get dressed," Stef said, seeing Callie had a towel wrapped around her. "Great, now you can also lecture me for something you don't care if Brandon, Jesus, and Jude do, but if I do or Mariana does, we get a lecture!" Stef's eyes narrowed. "Bed. Now," Stef said, pointing at the bed. "I'm not dressed, Mom," Callie said. "Get dressed and get out here. Now," Stef said, then walked out of the bathroom. Callie quickly dressed and made her way to the bed and sat down. She really wanted to make this as painless as possible, but anger seemed to keep being her go to emotion. "What were you thinking, young lady," Stef asked her daughter. "I don't know, what are you thinking? Your double standards are getting really old, Mom," Callie sassed back. "Excuse me, Callie Adams Foster?" Stef's eyebrows were raised high, nearly as high as they would go. "You heard me, Mom! Brandon can have all the sex he wants. He is shacking up with a 21 year old and you've always let him have as much sex as he wanted, even buying the condoms for him, practically condoning it! Jesus has had sex with Lexi, Emma, and Haley! And then went back to Emma. You buy him condoms. Jude is pretty close to fucking Noah..." "Watch your mouth, Callie Quinn Adams Foster! We do not use that language," Lena said harshly. She did not condone foul language. She didn't condone it at all. And all of her children knew it. Callie definitely knew using that word was not okay. "Sorry," Callie whispered. "Callie, we do not condone sex with any of you. In fact, we would prefer none of you had sex until you were married. But, I know that is not the case. So we do preach safe sex and that is making condoms available to your brothers. But at the same time, you know where those condoms are. Did you use one of them," Stef asked, trying to keep calm. Her daughter's attitude was what was getting her in trouble. That and her utter lack of following the rules tonight. "No. I didn't use the condoms under the sink, Mom," Callie snapped. Stef sighed and started to pace back and forth, thinking. "Stop acting like Brandon and Jesus always use a condom!Jesus has already had to buy the morning after pill," Callie continued to dig her hole. "Enough! Callie, that is enough. This is not about your brothers. This is about you. This is about you disobeying the rules tonight, young lady," Stef said. "We didn't even go all the way before Mama came home. And you've already said as long as I was safe ..." Callie was losing this battle quickly, and she knew it. She didn't want to tick Stef off anymore than she already had. "You just told me you weren't safe to begin with. So had Mama not caught you, you would have continued on and you would not have been safe," Stef said. "I never said we didn't use a condom, Mom." Stef looked at her with confusion. Her nerves were very nearly shot. "Explain, now." "A.J. had one. Mom, I'm sorry, okay? I am sorry that ..." "Are you sorry you got caught? Or are you sorry you keep lying to me and Mama? What exactly are you sorry for, young lady?" Callie swallowed and then looked up at her mother. "You're not mad about A.J. and me almost having sex are you?" Realization had finally hit Callie. "I'm not happy about it, but no. That is not what we are most upset about," Stef said. "Then what? Because I came home without telling you and Mama? Because I didn't think it was big deal," Callie said quietly. "Of course you didn't think it was a big deal, Callie. Obviously you didn't! But it was. You know the rules. Who did you ride to the party with," Stef asked . "You." "And what is the rule in this house about leaving anywhere without permission from either myself or Mama?" Callie sighed and looked down because she was afraid she'd roll her eyes at her mother. "We aren't supposed to." "Then why did you? You left without asking either of us if you could, and you came home with your boyfriend and brought him up to your room. You know that is not allowed. You know better than having your boyfriend in your room with the door closed," Stef said. Lena was analyzing the situation in front of her. It almost felt like Callie was pushing them on purpose. "Callie, you know you shouldn't have been at home alone with A.J. You know you should not have had him in your room. You know you shouldn't have left the party without permission. So why did you," Lena asked. "I didn't think you'd find out, obviously." It was silent in the room after Callie snapped that at Stef. "Go to your room, Callie," Stef said. She needed time to think before she truly lost her temper with her daughter. "With pleasure," Callie said, jumping up and stomping to the door, slamming it behind her. Stef took a deep breath. "Stef ..." Lena said, trying to calm her wife down. "She has lost her mind, Lena. Absolutely LOST it." "Yes, I agree. But we cannot punish her or talk to her when you are both losing your tempers," Lena said. "I know. What is it about the twins' birthday parties that she thinks it is okay to run off the moment we aren't paying attention? We grounded her for a week after we found out she'd left the party to go to the beach with Wyatt without asking. Why did she think this was okay?" "She yelled back at us this time," Lena said with a small grin. She vividly remembered how withdrawn Callie had been when she'd been grounded that first time. How timid and insecure. She'd walked on eggshells for days after her grounding had ended. It had taken them them weeks to get her to hold an entire conversation with them. "She did ... why were we so upset about her shutting us out again," Stef asked, laughing. "Stefanie Marie Adams Foster! You take that back. I'd much rather she feel comfortable enough to scream and yell at us than shut us out," Lena said. Stef laughed a few moments longer, "Me, too, Love, me too." There was a knock at the door. "Callie Quinn, I thought I told you to go to your room," Stef said as she watched the door open. "I ..." Callie said. "Callie, come sit down," Lena said, eyeing Stef. Callie walked over to the bed and sat down close to Lena. Practically sitting in her mother's lap while eyeing her other mother. Stef rolled her eyes. She knew exactly what Callie was doing. Callie was hugging up to Lena because Lena was the "safe" mom when any of the children were in trouble unless it dealt with school. Lena also knew what Callie was doing — even more so when Callie climbed into the middle of the bed and laid her head on Lena's shoulder. "Want to tell us why you are continuing to disobey us, Bug," Stef said, finally sitting on the bed, at Lena's feet. "I wanted to tell you and Mama I was sorry," Callie said, burrowing her feet under the blankets on the bed and slipping her hand in Lena's. Stef smirked. "Do you really think Mama is going to save you from punishment," Stef asked. "I'm not ..." Callie said, and then looked at her surroundings and sighed. "I am sorry I left the party without asking and I am sorry I came home and let A.J. in the house and my room while you were not home. I know I shouldn't have. I am sorry," Callie whispered. "You aren't in trouble for having sex. No, we don't condone it. We both want you to wait for sex until you are more emotionally ready. You are in trouble for not following the rules. You are in trouble for yelling at me and Mama. You are grounded for two weeks for leaving the twins' birthday party — again, might I add — and for your behavior once you were caught," Stef explained to her daughter. Callie started rubbing her finger against her nose and leaned into Lena, but she reached her feet out and tucked them under Stef's thigh. This was, no doubt, the most vulnerable either mom had seen their eldest daughter. "What's going through that pretty head of yours, Bug," Lena asked, wrapping her arm around Callie. "Two weeks? That long? Last time it was only a week." Stef's eyebrows raised up as high as they would go. "And that should have kept you from repeating the same mistake, however, it didn't seem to work. So, we think two weeks may make a better impression. You will ride to school with Mama, and home with Mama. You will not be allowed to go anywhere outside of the house unless you are with one of us. Your phone is mine as well," Stef said. "Okay," Callie sighed. "Do you understand why you are in trouble," Lena asked. Callie nodded. She got it. She got it completely. Still, a tear dropped down her face. She was so embarrassed. And upset. "Oh Love, come here," Lena said, wiping the tear off of Callie's cheek and pulling her close to her. "Lena, you know what I think she needs," Stef asked with a smirk. Lena laughed knowingly. "Mama sandwich!" Callie burst out laughing as Stef propelled herself towards Callie and Lena, wrapping her arms around the duo. "Thank you," Callie whispered, wrapping in the shroud of love in her mothers' arms. "For what, Love," Lena asked, resting her chin on top of Callie's head. "For loving me. For being my moms. For giving me another chance a million times," Callie whispered. She felt her mothers arms tighten around her and she soaked up the love she felt. "You're grounded from all boys for the rest of your life," Stef said, kissing the top of Callie's head. Callie sighed, but also let out a small laugh. Right now, despite the trouble she was in, there was nowhere else she'd rather be. Nowhere other than draped in the middle of a mama sandwich, safe and loved and wanted.
