“Let me sing you a little part of the song,” Brandon whispered into Callie’s ear.
“Okay.” Callie replied.
She then found her way back to the seat placed beside the window, ready for Brandon.
Brandon started playing the piano with a soft melody and then those words came out,
“You mean everything to me,
I’d give it all away,
If you say you’ll stay.
True love isn’t just a dream,
So shake me wake me
And make it our reality.”
Those words that came out were, they were beautiful. Callie was stunned, not realizing how much that song would mean to her before she heard it.
“Brand-“ Callie started to speak, but Brandon cut her off, “Callie, you don’t have to say anything. I know it is a lot after all that has happened today, but I was planning to take you here earlier. You know after we woke up, but,”
“I love you,’’ Callie said with a huge grin on her face.
Brandon, taken aback by those words, but not mad she said them. Not at all, if anything he was surprised. She hasn’t said those words since they broke up, in the way of partners. Sure she has said I love you guys, going to the family, but never directed to Brandon and especially in the meaning of lovers.
“I love you, Brandon Foster.”
“I love you too Callie.”

“Brandon, you are the piece of me that I have always been missing. You are my hero, my savior. You were there for me when nobody else was: when we went and got Jude, the trial when I had to face Liam, at the group home, the fundraiser. B you are everything I need, but you are way more than I deserve,”
Brandon walks over to Callie and leans against the open window ledge. He takes her hand has she continues, “I am the luckiest girlfriend in the world, but I am the one you really want?”
Brandon quickly replied, as he squeezed Callie’s hand a little harder, “of course Callie, I don’t want anyone but you!”
Callie soon squeezed his hand just as tight, right back with a smile in her eyes but not her face. She continued once more.
“Brandon you are where I like to go when my mind searches for peace. That is why I always shut down and, or go off somewhere when we fight, because I have nobody else that gets me as well as you. Do you ever feel if you say something somebody(s) doesn’t want to hear they won’t love you as much? Well that I feel. You are my safe harbor”

Brandon starts to the door with the exit sign above, still looked hands with Callie. Once they are about to leave they hear a car door slam-startled, they both were, scared to see whom it was. They quickly hoped into an opening in one of the classrooms, but that particular classroom was alien to them. They looked at deeply into each other’s eyes and saw fear. They were most afraid of it being someone they know, which is mostly everyone who goes to the school because they are the VP’s children.

They started hearing a humming get louder and louder coming from the south wing. Brandon playing the protector popped his head out the window and saw, a lady, tall, darker skin, big hair.

Brandon quickly stuffed his head back into the classroom door, “It’s mom!”
