(3 days later)...

(Flashback)

(CALLIE'S POV)

"Callie? Where are you?. Get you're ass out here before you are in even more trouble"

John was yelling as he was walking through the house and i was hiding underneath the bed with Jude lying there next to me. It was killing me to see the tears in his eyes

"Ok Jude you stay here okay" I whispered and it took no less then a second for him to snap his head in my direction.

"Callie no please he is going to hurt you"

"Jude I will be okay if he hits me he won't hit you. I would rather be the one getting hurt then you"

Before he could protest I slid myself out from under the bed walking out into the livingroon

"There you are i was wondering how long it would take you to come to you're senses"

I just kinds laughed at myself. Whatever you do call don't cry i said to myself as j got the first blow to my ribcage and a few more after that to the point I was on the ground in a much exceeded amount of pain.

"I'm sorry" I said barely above a whisper as I took a blow to the head and after that everything went dark"

(End of flashback)

I woke up to a whimpering sound and when I glanced over to the clock it read 3:13am I turned myself over to find Lena sprawled out and no Callie. I got up walking to my girls room to see if ahe was in there but the was nowhere to be found i was about ready to head down the stairs when I noticed the hallway closet door cracked open. I walked over to the closet turning the light on and there was Callie curled up in the corner knees up to her chest and her face hidden in her knees. I carefully knelt down on both knees and gently touched her leg and jumped back when she jumped

"No please don't hurt me I'm sorry"

My heart shattered then and there

"Hey hey my love its just me, its just mommy."

"Mom?"

She looked up at me with her scared brown eyes. She called me mom,the thing was k am not sure if she called me mom because she was scared or because she was actually calling me mom for the first time.

"Yes baby its just me. I'm not going to hurt you. Nobody is going to hurt you."

With that she crawled to me wrapping her arms around my neck and i gently wrapped my arms around her midsection and just held her for as long as she needed me to. Callie ended up adjusting herself so that she had her head laying on my chest and I gently kissed the top of her head

"Do you wanna talk about it?" I asked looking down at her and she looked back up at me. "No it was just a bad dream about an old Foster home" she said as she continues to look at me " you know cal nobody is going to hurt you as long as Me and mama are around"

She smiled a shy smile at me and I smiled back

"I know mom"

"Hey what do you say we head back to bed before mama decides she whole bed is hers for the night and we end up having to sleep on the floor?"

"Um I think that mama is a bed hog" she said standing up. "I also think the last one to the bed gets the middle"

And then she took off. Just like her mama she is sneaky. I stood up turning the light off and heading to bed, that is if u have a spot in bed

I woke up that morning to the smell of bacon and an empty bed. I slowely tolled myself out of bed and as if it was meant to be my phone started to ring

"Hello?"

"Hi this is Patty from Dr Grayson's office is this Stefanie Foster?"

"Yes Hi this is she"

"Hi Ms Foster I am calling so we can schedule an appointment for you're daughter Callie. I am looking and the best I can do at the moment would be a week from now so the 14th of February at 10:00am. If would that work for you?"

"Um yes that would be just fine."

"Ok wonderful Ms Foster we will see you then. You have a wonderful day"

"Thank you. Bye bye "

"Goodbye Ms Foster"

I strolled myself downstairs to see my family all sitting around the kitchen island

Brandon was working on a piece for his audition, Jesus and Mariana were arguing about something to do with the garbage, Jude was reading a book and Callie. My girl was sitting there just pushing her food around her plate. I walked up to Lena missing her cheek gently

"How is she doing this morning?"

Lena looked at me with sad eyes "I don't know stef she hasn't touched anything on her plate or drank anything"

I looked over at callie then back to Lena " the doctors office called this morning they want her to go in on the 14 for her first round of chemo. I whispered to Lena

"This is all going to get worse before it gets better isn't it?"

"I'm afraid so my love" I said to her as she handed me a plate of bacon and eggs with some toast

"Thank you"

"You're welcome" she said smiling back at me and i walked over taking my seat next to Callie.

"You know sweets of you can't eat it you don't have to" she looked at me and nodded her head and just headed back upstairs and I watched her as long as I could before she disappeared

"Mommy?"

"Yes Jude?"

"Is Callie going to die?"

I looked at him and before I knew it I had 4 sets of eyeballs looking at me and I hand Lena's hand resting on my shoulders

"No my loves she is going to be just fine she is a fighter"

Lena chimed in "and if I may add she is one stubborn cookie just like mom is"

They all just kept looking at me as if they were not convinced what we were saying was true.

"Ok you guys head upstairs get you're stuff car leaves in five mom is staying hr with Callie today"

They all went up and grabbed there things and met us back in the kitchen I kissed Lena goodbye

"I love you"

"I love you to, take care of our baby."

I smiled as they walked out the door and I went upstairs to check on cal she was sitting cross legged on her bed just starting at the wall. I walked over and sat next to her. "You know mom I feel like someone just literally kicked the crap out if me. My body hurts and I feel like I have gotten weaker I mean I can't even pick jude up anymore like I used to" I looked at her as she was looking at me.

" I know my love but we are going tonget through this and me and mama and you're brothers and sister are going to be here every step of the way"

"Do you promise?"

I smiled looking at her "I promise"

She nodded her head and looked at the wall again and I leaned back on her bed propped up on my elbows.

"So my girl we have the house to ourselves what do you say we bring blankets and pillows downstairs and we can turn on Netflix and watch a movie or TV show together.?"

"I say we should watch friends "

I laughed " ok sounds good I'll grab the blankets and pillows if you want to get it turned on? "

She just smirked and headed down stairs and j went in my room grabbing her favorite blanket and a pillow for us and headed downstairs. When I got down there Callie was leaning against the wall and I dropped the pillow and blanket.

" nothing just feel dizzy is all."

Here" I picked up the blanket and pillow with one hand and wrapped my arm around her waist my my other hand helping her to the couch and I handed her the Xbox controller and TV remote so she could get it set up while I made the small bed for us

"Geez mommy you're slow" I looked at her with an raised eyebrow and she just snickered at me.

"Funny Missy"

"She hit play and I wrapped the blanket around myself and then pulled callie in so she could snuggle with me. She just laid d her head on my chest and I had my arms wrapped around her as we watched Ross and Rachel fight about whether or not they were on a break or not.

If I did not say so myself today was the perfect day to be lazy and binge watch friends.

(Lena POV)

I pulled into the driveway after dropping off the kids all at there school activities I sat there for a moment before walking into the house. When I walked into the house all j heard was the theme song to friends. Walking into the living room I seen my two girls knocked out on the couch

Stef was slouch over some with her arms wrapped protectively around Callie and Callie had her head resting on stefs chest and she was slightly snoring. I could not help myself I took my camera out and snapped a picture of the two. Leaving the room I went into the kitchen go fix myself a cup of tea just thinking

Thinking that maybe just maybe after seeing Callie and stef that maybe she is finally going to start letting us in. I mean what can I say sometime I think stef is her biological mom the way the two are so much alike

And honestly I would hate to be there if they ever but heads...

"Orange spice?"

I looked To her and smiled "how did you know?"

"The package mind of gave it away"

"How is she doing stef ?

" well other than her getting dizzy today and the fact that she still has not eaten anything she seems ok "

I just looked at her and reached over taking her hand in mine.

"Lena it'd going to get worse before it gets better. You and I both know that"

"I know I know"

I leaned in softly kissing her on the lips and leaned my forehead against hers

We will get through thusthus. We all will I promise
