CALLIE'S POV

Its been a week since talking to Jordon and since then Brandon and I have decided to enrol Sammy into the pre-school that his daugter goes to. Sammy still isnt excited about it but Im sure he'll eventually like it. 
"Sammy. Dude come on" I hear as I walk past his bedroom and when I look in I see Sammy running around in his underwear and Brandon sitting on the floor looking annoyed.
"Whats happening?" I ask smiling walking into the room sitting on Brandons lap.
"Well the nudist over there doesnt want to put his clothing on" Brandon explains making Sammy and me giggle. "Oh thats funny is it" He says before tackling me over and tickling me till Im out of breathe.
"Ok...ok....Im..im sor.....sorry....st...stop" I say through the laughter fit and he finally stops pecking my lips before bringing me back to his lap. 
"Seriously though Sam you need to get dressed" I say still giggling a little.
"Fine..." he groans walking sloppy over to Brandon "No" He then says.
"What?" We ask confused.
"I dont like skinny jeans" He says
"Since when?" I ask
"Since today" He answers with a bit of an attitude
"Well too bad" I tell him holding his jeans out and he snatches them off me before slipping them on. I then hand him a blue t-shirt saying 'young, wild and free'. He happily puts that on then skips out the door I assume going downstairs.
"You have a weird kid" B says looking at me
"WE have a weird kid" I say getting closer to him
"We have a perfect kid" He corrects me making me smile and lean in to kiss him. It gets more intense before I pull away.
"We have to get ready to go to your moms today"
"What why??" he whines making me giggle
"Because you were mean last time we saw them and now we're gonna go and have a pleasent lunch with them" I tell him and he just rolls his eyes. "Come on mr grumples" I say standing up putting my hand out for him to take. He takes it standing up so we're face to face and he starts to lean in. I go to kiss him but then quickly turn around and walk away "Quick or we're gonna be late" I say turning around giving him a wink before going downstairs to find Sammy. 
"Hey dude, whatcha doing?" I ask walking up next to him at the table.
"Colouring a picture for daddy" He says not looking up
"Thats nice, what are you drawing?"
"Its a surprise mummy" He says covering it and I laugh.
"Ok ok but you better either hurry and finish or go put it in your room cause we're about to have breakfast and then leave" I tell him and he nods before colouring faster. 

I make Sammy some toast with peanut butter and give him that with some orange juice and he eats that while still colouring. Brandon comes down making Sammy cover the picture more, so B comes into the kitchen with me to make a coffee.
"Why do you want me to be so nice to my mum?" He asks
"Because you love your mum and you havent even called her to say hi since you snapped at her that day"
"I didnt snap at her"
"Well you werent very nice"
"I didnt do anything"
"Brandon...."
"Fine....I'll talk to her but Im telling you now she probably doesnt even remember cause it was nothing" He says but I just shrug. "By the way some chick called Ally called early this morning"
"Oh what did she want?"
"She wanted to know if you were coming in today to look at some rolls?" He tells me looking confused.
"Oh ok, yeah I'll call her back later"
"Who is she?"
"She works at my studio and I have to go look at some of the photos she took cause shes only an apprentice" I explain and he nods.
"DADDY LOOK!!!" Sammy yells while running into the kitchen wiht his picture. 
"whats this buddy?" He asks crouching down to Sammys level.
"I drew you this picture. Look" He says pointing to everything while Brandon holds it "that you kissing mummy and thats me holding boths your guyses hands" He says making me smile at how amazing he is.
"Its fantastic buddy, how about we put it on the fridge?" 
"Okay" He says taking the picture and running to stick the picture on with a magnet. 
"Hes so cute" Brandon says pulling me into his arms
"Yeah"
"Whats wrong?"
"He asked me the other day why he cant have both his mummy and daddy living in the same house now that we're in love" I say looking down at our hands that are linked.
"What did you say?"
"I told him thats the next step"
"It is?"
"Mhm, so do you want to?"
"Do I want to move in?" He asks and I smile noding my head slowly
"Of course I do" He says lifting me up spinning me round and round.
"YAYYYY" We then hear before we're tackled by Sammy "We gets to live with each others" He says making us all laugh.
"Well how about we head to grandmas to tell her the good news" I tell him and he nods running ot put his shoes on "Come on babe" I say taking his hand and we all pile into the car.

Stef and Lena's -

"Quickly go up and knock" I say to Sam making him run to the stairs but the he trips on the middle step and starts screaming. "Shit" I say rushing over to him lifting him up in my arms. Stef then opens the door wondering whats happening, I tell her he tripped and then I take Sammy inside to the kitchen to put a bandaid on his arm. 
"See good thing you wore your skinny jeans or you'd have a sore knee too" It tell him and he lets out a small laugh.
"Did you have a fall buddy?" Stef asks walking into the kitchen where Sammy is on the bench and Im wiping his arm down. He nods yes while wiping his tears away.
"Aww poor baby" she says giving him a hug. "Hey you" she then says to me giving me a hug.
"Hey" I smile before undoing the bandaid, putting it on his arm, then I give it a kiss. "All better?" I ask and he nods sniffing his nose putting his arms out for me. I pick him up and he snuggles into my neck. Now he's hurt he will be a sook all day probably until bed time.
"Can I have a cuddle little man?" Stef asks but Sammy shakes his head no into my neck.
"Sorry" I tell her
"No its fine, hes hurt" she says then Lena, Mar and Jesus walk in with Brandon.
"Hey guys" I say and we all catch up a little before going out the back to have a few drinks and talk. Sammy is still on my lap not talking to anyone.
"You ok?" I whisper to him and he shakes his head. I bite my lip concerned before getting up and taking him inside to Brandons old bedroom. I lay him on the bed and sit next to him rubbing his head and he eventually falls asleep. As Im walking out Brandon comes up the stairs.
"He ok?" He asks concerned walking closer to me putting his hands on my waist.
"Yeah" I smile "He's asleep now" I tell him moving closer with my arms around his waist and head on his chest.
"Maybe we should take him home" He suggests.
"Lets just have lunch first and when he wakes up we'll see how he feels" I tell him and he nods taking my hand leading me down the stairs.
