Callie's POV

Its been a month since Brandon and I decided to move in together and to be honest it could not be better. I really thought we would have had more fights by now but dont get me wrong I am so glad we havent. Sammy is loving having his dad here all the time and I jsut love seeing the smile on his face everytime he wakes up in the morning and we're both here. He just absolutely loves it. Christmas is this month and now that is what really gets Sammy excited. Its Brandons first christmas with Sammy and me too I guess. So I really want to make this one special. 

"Hey baby whatcha thinking about?" Brandon asks sliding is hands around my waist so they are linked resting on my stomach while I have my hands in the sink doing the dishes.
"Sammys first christmas with you" I answer grabbing a tea towel wiping my hands and turning around in his grip to face him with a smile on my face. He leans down to peck my lips smiling back.
"Well I can tell you its going to be a magical christmas for all" he tells me
"Oh is that so?" I smirk
"Mhmm and I cant wait to see him open all his presents" he answers. We've already done all the christmas shopping. We decided to get it all done since Sammy had already written a pretty precise list. 
"Its always been just me and Sammy on christmas ya know. Never any other family" I tell him 
"What about that Carter guy?"
"I never let him come over on birthdays or christmas cause I just knew then that Sammy would get too attached and I didnt really want that"
"Why?"
"i guess in the back of my head I always hoped that this would happen and we would be able to become a family to celebrate together and I didnt want to ruin that chance" I explain 
"Well then this is an extra special christmas cause Sammy is gonna be able to have all his family around and its gonna be the best christmas ever"
"Well good" I say smiling back then we hear the doorbell go off. 
"I'll get it" he tells me giving me a quick kiss before he leaves the room.
"I got it too!!" I hear Sammy yell running after Brandon making me laugh. 
"Umm Cal?" Brandon asks peaking his head through the door.
"Yeah?"
"You may want to come to the door" I look at him confused but go to the door anyway. When I get there I see a man standing there. 
"Um can I help you?"
"Yeah. You're Callie Jacob right?"
"Yes...."
"Im Robert Jacob" After he says that name I just freeze. I knew my dad was different to judes after jude got adopted but I never felt the need to go looking for mine. "I was...i mean....I tried to get in contact with you about 4 or so years ago but they said you left town but then I found out you were back and I just had to come and see you" He explains. 
"Cal who is this?" Brandon whispers.
"Can you take Sammy out the back?" I ask him and he just nods without asking any questions. I step out the door to the front porch with Robert to see what else he has to say. I guess I could hear him out.
"So..." I say awkwardly
"Look I spoke to your mums and I swear Im not here to cause trouble"
"They're not mu mums" I correct him and he looks at me confused. "I couldnt get adopted for more reasons then just not knowing who you were and I left to be on my own. I dont regret any of it at all or right now I wouldnt have Sammy"
"Oh sorry"
"Why?"
"I just I should've tried to meet you earlier, Im sorry"
"Stop saying that" I tell him getting a little angry.
"What?"
"Sorry you keep saying it stop"
"Oh sorry- I mean sor- never mind" he says I just roll my eyes.
"So was that your son back there"
"Yep thats me and brandons son"
"Brandon is the son of stef and lena right?"
"Mhm"
"Was that part of the reason they arent you mums right now"
"Look if your just here to discuss this you can go"
"no. Look Im sorry"
"Dude"
"Ok. Fine. I just wanted a chance to see you in person and you give you this" he says handing me an envelope.
"Whats this?" I ask
"Just read it when Im gone and if you decide you want nothing to do with my I totally understand but please. Just give me a chance" he practically begs before standing up and walking away back to his car. I walk back into the house and go upstairs to my bedroom. I sit on the edge of the bed and slowly open the letter not even knowing what to expect.

Dear Callie,

I know you dont know who I am. But I know a lot about you. I've been wanting to meet you for ages but my dad told me not to until you were ready. I know this is probably pushing it but I would really like to meet you and get to know you. My name is Sophia and Im your half sister. I feel like we look alike, well atleast thats what my dad tells me. Please think about it. I would love to meet you. Well anyway thanks for reading this.

Love Sophia xx

I look in the envelope and there is a picture of who I assume is Sopha. She doesnt kinda look like me. This is just all too much so I decide to put the envelope in my draw and just go back downstairs to my family. 
"Hey guys" I say walking out.
"Hey, what was that about?" B asks
"Oh nothing, all is good" I assure him giving him a peck on the lips before chasing after Sammy in the backyard.
