This is inspired by the sneak peak of The Fosters 3x10, with Brandon and Callie. But before I start I just want to say AHDKDHSKDHADJFHDK OMFG THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL! Ahhhh, last week's episode killed me and now this!

Disclaimer: I do NOT own The Fosters or any characters mentioned in this story.

The faint hair on her arms stood on end, leaving a trail of chills as Brandon softly ran his fingers up her arm. A small smile crept up on her face and Brandon quickly brought his lips to hers and she eagerly returned the kiss. Brandon pulled away, Callie still reaching her lips to his, but they needed to talk.

"I should probably go back to my room." He instantly felt bad as he saw Callie's face fall as she objected.

"I'm afraid Mariana's gonna wake up." He explained. Callie half smiled and shook her head.

"She won't, girl sleeps like the dead you know that." She whispered and brought her lips back to his. This moment was too good to give up. She wanted this, needed this, they both did. After everything that's happened between them; their jealousy, secret kisses, broken hearts, unresolved feelings, undying dedication to each other, they both knew deep down this moment would come. The moment would finally come when the levy broke, they wouldn't be able to fake anymore. They wouldn't be able to try to convince themselves and the people around them of being something they clearly could never be. They wouldn't be able to resist each other anymore. The day would come when they finally gave in to they're deepest desires and temptations, each other. They just didn't know the day would come this soon, this unexpectedly.

"I wish we could stay here forever…" Callie lips brushed over Brandon's as he chuckled softly.

"..and ever and ever…." He chuckled even more at this. He found it so surreal. He had literally dreamed of this very moment, the moment when they would finally admit to each other and themselves what was already completely obvious, that they'd never get over each other.

It had almost become a fact, a sort of knowing that no matter how many other people they'd be with, they were all just distractions and eventually the time would come when they'd face the truth. This was the truth. Them. Together. In all its simplicity it was the most complicated thing either of them would face, because they both knew it could never be as easy as two people being happy together. However, despite that, that's what they were in this moment, happy.

"You think they know yet?" He had to ask. As much as he didn't want to ruin this moment, the moment he had been desperately wanting ever since he first laid eyes on Callie, he knew they had to come back to some form of reality.

"They will soon, if not from my social worker, from Rita." Callie went on to explain. She has just the slightest sense of apathy, and that both excited and discouraged Brandon.

"They're gonna be….so mad, and hurt." Callie looked down, avoiding Brandon's eyes. The reality was sinking in for her of what had actually happened. She admitted to Rita about their secret relationship. She had completely destroyed any chances of her getting adopted, and she and Brandon finally came to terms with that. They finally decided they had waited long enough. They had finally made love, and it was everything she had fantasized about.

"I think they're going to be most upset…that they can't adopt you." Brandon spoke out. The looked deep into each other's eyes, and Brandon could tell that although she was happy, she was hurt, and it killed him. He knew that by admitting to a secret relationship and having sex, they completely demolished any and all chances of her being officially adopted by Stef and Lena, and it torn him up to know that he helped do that.

Callie noticed Brandon's torn expression and she smiled sadly. She knew that he knew that it hurt her. But she also knew that ever time he wanted her, every time they glanced at each other with pained, longing expressions, he was giving her up. He kept letting her go over and over again, just to insure that she was happy, even if it meant it was tearing him up inside. She was so tired of it all. She was so tired of denying him what he wanted, what they both wanted. For once she wanted him to be selfish, to give him, and herself, what they longed for, each other.

"Yeah….they probably will. But, they're just going to have to find some way to accept it. I'm not getting adopted, and that's ok, because…I love you. I love you Brandon and all I want now….is to be with you." Brandon smiled widely and Callie returned the look.

"I love you too, more than anything Callie. Please know that. Know that I would do anything for you still, just like I always have. I'm so sorry you can't get adopted." Brandon eyes began to glaze over. Callie shook her head as she wrapped her arm around the back of his head. She leaned her forehead against his.

"Shhh, don't. It's ok, honestly. It's ok that I can't get adopted because I chose. I finally chose you, and I'd never regret that." Their lips connected in a fiery passion as heat consumed both of them once again. Callie climbed on top of Brandon to remind him just how happy she was about choosing him.

As they pulled into their driveway and parked, Mariana hurried to climb out of the car.

"As fun as that was staying in a cabin, nature is just not my thing." She shook her head, remembering how terrible the cell reception out there was. She also could have sworn there was a bear outside, since she kept her grunting every now and then close to the cabin. She quickly hurried inside as Brandon and Callie took their time. They stood on the outside of the front door, preparing themselves to reveal their rekindled relationship.

"Ready?" Brandon asked holding out his hand to Callie. In that moment she let go. She let go of the hope to ever be adopted. It was time to face the music and realize that he was enough; Brandon was enough for her to be happy. With that reassurance she latched onto his hand.

"Ready."

As much as it hurt to say goodbye to adoption, she knew some dreams had to die so others could be realized…
