Where did the brake fluid come out? Around the piston?

They are very easy to rebuild; its pretty much just one seal, which is the seal around the piston. Rebuild kits are like $3 and come with that seal, and a new boot for each piston.

yeah its coming around the piston.. i wasant sure if it was because i pressed in the piston in to much or something

No, the seal is bad. It shouldn't matter how much or far you push on the piston. It shouldn't leak there. Put a rebuild kit in it and you'll be good.
