Brandon's POV
I went through my phone and a sudden knock on my door interrupted my sudden desire to look through my phone. I looked through the peep hole and saw it was Callie, I opened up and let her in. "Is Sierra here?" She asked, I shook my head, no. She handed me a box and I opened it. "What's all this shit?" I laughed. "Shit?" She crossed her arms, "They're memories... From all the years we were together. I want you to keep them, burn them, throw them out. Whatever you want to do with them." Callie pouted her lip, "Why?"
"It was something holding me back from moving on, when its very obvious you have..." She winced, looking at the house. I was living with Sierra. "All the shit I did to you-- The cheating, the beating, I never wanted to hurt you." I began to tear up. "Then why'd you hurt me?! Why'd you hurt Blue?!" Callie yelled. I shook my head and closed my eyes in shame. "I don't know. I have no fucking idea! I was the biggest idiot letting you go but I love you.. I love you so much." I cupped her face, about to kiss her.
"But you love Sierra?" Callie turned her head. I let her go and looked at my shoes. "Yes, I also love Sierra." She bit her lip in pain. "Me and Blue argued today.." We sat and decided to keep this conversation and visit friendly. "Oh yeah?" She gave me a rude smile, "She poured water on me and called me a bad mother--" I frowned and couldn't believe my ears. "--Am I a bad mother, B?" She asked, she began crying. I patted her back and held her tightly to me, kissing her hair. "No.. No.. You're a fantastic mother. A better parent than I ever was, I can assure you that, Jacobs." We chuckled and she sniffled and i let her go. "Wanna make a deal?" She walked toward the door. "What deal?" I asked her.
"If you don't find what you're looking for with Sierra or you miss me? And you wanna come home, with me and the guys, Blue and Kevin? I'll be waiting... Deal?" I smiled and then frowned. "That's a really nice offer, Cals.." She slapped my arm, playfully. "C'mon! Stop being stubborn and take the deal... We love you too! We're your family too!" She laughed. I laughed with her. "Sure, deal." I said, Callie left.

Sierra came home and I kissed her lips softly. "So there was something I wanted to tell you." She said, getting undressed. "What?" I sat down with a smile. "I'm leaving the country again. I'm going to Germany to finish some work.." She said, I patted her hand and wished her luck. "B, We're a team. Come with me." She pleaded. "We're not together, Sierra. We're a team but we're not together and I have to stay here with my family for a while..." I said.
"But you like the sex?" I growled and pulled her close, biting her skin and kissing her neck. "Yes, baby. I love the sex." She blushed. "Stay here. With your family. Be with Callie again. I understand." She said, my eyes widened. "I can't let you go again, I lost you once--" I began to tear up and she cupped my face, kissing my forehead. "B! Callie needs you..." She whispered, I smiled a little and she began to pack her stuff.

It was raining that night and I had made my decision to stay with Callie. I was drenched in rain, Mat opened the door and let me in. "Dude! You're soaked!" He spat. Callie and Blue came down the stairs and Blue growled returning upstairs. "Blue," Callie whispered. "Leave me alone, mom." She whispered back. She turned to look at me, "What are you doing here?" She smiled beautifully at me. "I'm home... Sierra left to Germany for a while and she pleaded me to stay; to be with you again. Callie, I love you. I'm so so sorry baby.." She ran down the remaining stepss and kissed me and i twirled her around the living room, I set her down and her arms were still around me.
"I love you, I love you, Brandon." I coped her face and kissed her again, passionatley, sweetly. "I love you more.." I finally told her back. "Not possible." I grabbed her and kissed her again. Blue and Kevin came down the stairs, "We're going out..." She said annoyingly. "It's 2am." I said, Kevin nodded. "It's Friday though and Tabatha wanted to have a party." Callie looked at her oddly, "Another one?" She nodded. "Mom, im gonna get that scholarship and after that I won't be able to do as I wish. Please!" Blue pleaded.
"Kevin's still 17... You need a curfew." I said. "I'm way ahead of you, Mr. Foster!" Kevin practically flew down the stairs and handed me a chart. "Monday thru Friday, my curfew is 8. On the weekends.. It's 11." He showed me a very thought out plan on how this was gonna work. "Very clever," I admired him. He smiled proudly. "I thought that if I'm living here, you might want me under ground rules which Callie has already provided me with." Kevin told me. "Blue, have him by 11." I said sternly. "Yeah... Sure, fuck off." She spat angrily, grabbing her purse and Kevin followed her.
"Im still your father!" I yelled. "A father doesn't abadon her daughter for 8 years.. Comes back and leaves for another 8 years, cheats on his wife and beats her... That's not MY father!" She slammed the door and left with Kevin. I exhaled, "You made mistakes. That's understandable..." Callie hugged me. "I wish I had a chance to explain what really happened. I wish she would let me talk to her.." I frowned.
