Fifteen Minutes || A Brallie One Shot

1

(A/N - Yo, I just got way to excited from the Christmas photos from The Fosters and felt I needed to write out a quick one shot. This wasn't planned out like I do with my other stories, so it may be a bit messy, but I really felt like writing this. Make sure to vote and comment! Also, follow my twitter @maiamitxhell, and my instagram @maiasmitchell & @itsthefostersx. Happy reading, S!) 

           “Callie, Callie, wake up! It’s Christmas!” Jude exclaimed, shaking Callie in her bed. Callie groggily turned over and opened her eyes. As soon as the word “Christmas” sunk in her mind, she immediately felt a rush of pure happiness. Her first real Christmas. She had previous Christmas’ with other foster families, but she and Jude weren’t really included. They were just there. Finally, with the Fosters, they got to be included. They were having a family dinner tonight with all of them, as well as Stef’s mom. Callie was really happy her and Jude were about to have the best Christmas ever.

                Previous to this year, Christmas had been a sad time for them. It was a time for family, but they didn’t have any. Jude would often cry on this day because he felt envious of all of the families who got to have a beautiful Christmas together. This year, Callie intended on letting nothing get in the way of Jude having his perfect Christmas. That’s what really matters.

                “Merry Christmas, Jude,” Callie said before hoping out of bed and hugging Jude tightly. “You go wake up Mari, I’ll go wake up Brandon!” She kissed Jude on the forehead before sneaking quietly into Brandon’s room. She went onto his bed and slipped under the covers and placed her arms around his body. She kissed his back, up his shoulder blades and to his neck to wake him up. Ever since Brandon got beat up and he confessed that he was still in love with her, they’ve been having a secret relationship. Callie knows she needs a family, but she also knows this is not the easiest thing to obtain. She figures she should at least get to be happy in the moment. She knows that no matter what, she will have some times to this family, whether it’s from Jude or Brandon.

                Brandon isn’t very fond of the whole “secret relationship” thing, but Callie is worth it. “Merry Christmas,” he whispers before turning around and kissing Callie. They kiss briefly, but every second counts. All of the time spent apart and without each other just made them want each other even more.

                “Merry Christmas, Brandon,” she whispered back, leaning against him. She dragged her right hand to his hair and ran her fingers through it. Brandon smiled wide; he loved when she did that.

                “I wish you could’ve spent the night in my room. I would have loved for you to fall asleep in my arms and you be the first thing I saw when I woke up. I think that would have been the best Christmas present I could have asked for,” Brandon offered. He looked down at Callie and kissed her head lightly. He reached down and grabbed her hand; lacing his fingers with hers. Callie brushed and looked up at him, smiling. He loves the way she smiles. He rarely gets to see this beautiful girl have a beautiful smile on her face. However, ever since they’ve been dating he has seen it frequently. He takes pride knowing he brings her that much happiness.

                “You should have suggested that yesterday, dummy. I would’ve taken that risk; just for you.” Callie cuddled even closer to Brandon if that’s possible. “I don’t want to get up.”

                “Me either, baby. But we should. Jude is probably getting anxious about opening presents,” Brandon spoke. Callie sighed. She kissed Brandon lightly on the nose, giggled, and then kissed him softly on his lips. She let them linger there momentarily before she got out of his bed. He followed her up and grabbed her hand before they left the room. “Hold my hand, please. Until we get to where people can see us.”
