Callie's POV

The adoption was finalized. I couldn't believe it. I was an Adams-Foster. I am officially part of a family. "Has anyone seen Brandon?" I asked the room full of people, everyone but the one I most needed to see.

"I think he went out back, said something about needing some air." Mama (Lena) said

"I'm gonna check on him. I'll be right back; I could use some air too." I smiled at my family...MY family.

I walked out back and there he was, he took my breath away every time I saw him.

"Hey." I smiled "We have to talk." I told him making sure it was just us out here

"There is nothing to talk about Callie, you're adopted...what we feel can't exist not anymore." he told him

"Brandon...I'm scared." I admitted to him

"Why?" he asked me

"What if I get pregnant?" I came out and said it

"We used protection Callie. The chances of that happening are slim." he blew it off like it was nothing

"Brandon...I love you...Please don't just blow me off like this." I begged my...my brother.

"Callie, this is done, we are done. I don't want to talk to you, I don't want to be near you. I don't want to live in the same house as you but I'm not that lucky!" he yelled at me

He casually strolled back in the house. I leaned up against a tree and fought back the tears. I could do this. He was my brother nothing more nothing less. I took a few deep breaths and went back in with a plastered smile on my face. They didn't need to know.

They will never know. All we will ever be is brother and sister. "Hey Callie, you okay?" Marianna read me like a book

"Just tired. It's been an emotional rollercoaster to get here. Guess I'm just not believing it too be true yet." I told her honestly, even if that was only half of the issue

I watched Brandon from across the room, he was dressed in a suit from the ceremony. He looked brilliant. I couldn't believe this was over. Would it ever be okay again?

At about 9 everyone had left and I decided to go get ready for bed, as I entered the bathroom I nearly collided with Brandon. He shut the door quickly and turned the lock. The other door was locked as well. He pushed me up against the door and kissed me passionate.

When he pulled away he quickly exited the bathroom, no words. A kiss like that and he walked away not saying anything. It's a good thing I had already taken my makeup off earlier, because a kiss like that would've left traces on both our faces. I brushed my hair and teeth and went into the room I shared with my SISTER. I still couldn't believe it.

Brandon's POV

I couldn't sleep. I couldn't breathe, I wanted to feel her laying here next to me. I want her to be mine. Moms would never allow this, it was wrong. I know its wrong...but you can't help who you fall in love with.

2 Weeks Later

"Callie that's wonderful!" I heard my mom say

"What's wonderful?" I asked coming into the room

"Callie is going to study abroad for a year and a half. She leaves next week." Lena said

"You just got her and your gonna let her go?" I asked

"I really want to do this, it'll be great for my writing. I need something more to write about." she was lying about something. But I couldn't tell you what. She acted different around me. We hadn't talked about the kiss in the bathroom. Hadn't even mentioned it, maybe it meant nothing to her…

Callie's POV

"Bye moms." I hugged my mother's tightly "Jude doesn't grow anymore until I get back." My brother squished me in a hug

"Callie…" Marianna said

"You can still come with Mari, I would love that." I told her hugging her

"I know...but Matt's here." (They did not break up in this story)

"I know...I love you sis." I hugged her again

"I love you Jesus." I hugged my brother

My family exited the family area and I sighed...Brandon didn't come to say goodbye. I turned to head to security and heard my name. "Callie!" Brandon came running over to me. "Don't go. Please."

"Brandon. I have to go, and I want to go." I told him tears in my eyes

"Callie…"

"Brandon, I'm sorry. I don't have a choice." I've said too much. "I love you, goodbye." I hurried into the secure check line where he couldn't get into

"Callie!" I heard his distance cry

"I'm sorry…" I whispered

2 Days Later

I still couldn't believe I lied to my moms, I told them I was studying abroad, when really I was moving to Tennessee at least for a year in a half. I just can't be around Brandon right now. It's too much. I love him as more than a brother.

It'll never be the same since that night. If only I hadn't said something to him that night, then we never would've slept together, things wouldn't be any different. I had rented an apartment in Franklin, I was still going to be doing my schooling I'm finishing online. I got a job at Starbucks (Don't own). I needed to be myself for a while. I of course love my moms and my sister and brothers, but I was always looking to find myself and still am, and I need to find myself now before I go home..

A/N: Introduction chapters for me are the worst! I swear it will get better please give it a shot.
