Everyone groaned as they watched Evie try to calm the screaming toddler who didn't like being restrained to her car seat. They had woken up extremely early to pack and get ready to leave and they were now driving back to Auradon Prep. The car ride had been relaxed for the first few hours since the small toddler had been fine before calmly playing with her toys, but now it had been a few hours of her being stuck in her car seat and she wanted out. She didn't like being restrained to her seat and she wanted Evie to hold her and play with her.

"Evie seriously calm her down. She's been crying for almost an hour now and we still have like four more hours in this car. I don't want to listen to a screaming two year old for another four hours," Audrey told her friend as they were all irritated including Evie who had been trying for like an hour to stop the toddler's cries.

Evie just rolled her eyes as she looked at her friends in annoyance and frustration as she ran her fingers through the crying toddler's hair hoping that would be enough to calm her, but it was only making things worse as Mal wanted more from Evie. "What do you want me to do? I can't pick her up. We're in a car," Evie told her friends in annoyance as they were mad at her for not calming the toddler when she couldn't even pick her up.

The others just groaned as they were about to start yelling back as they were all tired and irritated until the toddler started crying even louder while reaching towards Evie as she wanted Evie to hold her.

"Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! I wan ow! I wan ow! Mommy I wan you!" The small toddler screamed out while sobbing and pulling at her car seat buckle. Evie just looked at Jay who was driving not being able to stand hearing her tiny sister crying anymore.

"Jay just stop the car. We can just take a break and eat lunch. This is way too long for a toddler to be restrained in her seat like this. Plus we haven't had lunch yet," Evie told the older boy as she didn't like hearing her baby sister cry like that and they still had another four hours to go. She couldn't keep making the toddler sit still like that for another four hours that was just cruel and torturous.

The others just agreed with her as they were hungry and they wanted a break from the car as well. "Yeah okay you're right Evie. I think we could all use a break and some food. I'll just stop here," Jay told his friends as he pulled into the parking lot of the first restaurant he saw, so they could eat lunch and move around a bit.

As soon as Jay parked the car Evie unbuckled herself and reached over towards the toddler. The small toddler just reached her hands up towards Evie. "Mommy! Upie mommy!" The toddler called out to Evie while reaching towards her. Evie just smiled as she unbuckled the small girl and picked her up immediately calming her down as the toddler stopped crying as soon as Evie had her in her arms.

"Aw baby girl come here. Come on let's go get some lunch. I bet you're hungry," Evie told the toddler who smiled and clapped excitedly now that she was no longer restrained to her seat. "Yay! Foo! Foo! Foo!" The toddler screamed out happily while giggling, making Evie laugh as well as she placed the small girl down who grabbed her hand and ran towards the restaurant pulling her with her. The others just sighed in relief as they all got out of the car and stretched as they made their way into the restaurant following Evie and the now happy toddler.

When they made it inside Evie was already sitting at a table with the happy toddler in her lap who was scribbling on the kids menu with a purple crayon. Evie just smiled when she saw her friends as she motioned for them to come sit at the table. "Hey guys what took you so long," Evie playfully asked her friends just like how they usually did to her when she would be "late" due to the toddler.

They just laughed as they made their way over and sat down at the table with her and the now giggling toddler. "Haha Evie you got us," Jay told his little sister sarcastically, but also playfully. Evie just laughed as she looked at her big brother. "Oh don't act like that didn't bother you," Evie told the older boy playfully, making them all laugh.

They were all feeling better now that they could actually move around especially the tiny toddler who was loving the fact that she could be held by Evie again since she always felt safer when she was being held by Evie.

"Mommy! Wook! Wook!" The small toddler excitedly told Evie as she held up her drawing of scribbles. Evie just smiled as she looked at the toddler. "Oh wow! Look at you! That's so good Mal," Evie told the toddler with a fake gasp as she had no clue what the toddler had been trying to draw, but she couldn't let her sister know that.

Mal just smiled as she clapped her hands. "Yay!" The small toddler screamed out happily as she grabbed the crayon again and began to scribble more making the others smile as the toddler was being adorable while trying to draw with her purple crayon. While the toddler was busy scribbling the others were all talking about the trip and how much fun it was since they had already ordered and were now just waiting on the food.

About thirty minutes later their food arrived and Jay and Carlos barely even let the waitress put the food down as they immediately grabbed at their food since they were hungry and couldn't wait any longer. Evie just groaned in embarrassment as not even the toddler was acting like that. "Jay! Carlos! You can't just grab your food like that! It's rude! Gosh even the two year old didn't behave like that," Evie told her brothers in annoyance as she scolded them once the waitress had left.

The boys just rolled their eyes ignoring her as they were getting sick of Evie treating them like her kids. Ever since Evie had taken custody of the toddler her "mom" mode had been on high gear. It was like she couldn't stop parenting even to them who were both teenagers.

Evie just sighed in frustration as she realized the boys were ignoring her. She then turned to see that the toddler in her lap was still invested in her scribbling that she wasn't even touching her food. "Mal put the crayon down. It's lunch time now. Your food is here and you need to eat now," Evie lectured the toddler. Mal just shook her head no as she looked up at Evie. "I no sop! I nee finis," the small toddler told Evie as she continued to scribble and not touch her food.

Evie just sighed once again as she grabbed the crayons and the kids menu from the toddler. Mal immediately began to cry as she reached for her drawing that Evie had taken, causing a scene in the restaurant as people from other tables turned towards them in disapproval seeing the group of teens and the crying toddler. "My! My! Mommy gib ba! Gib id ba! I wan id ba!" The small girl screamed out loudly while reaching for her drawing.

"Um Evie maybe you should just give her the drawing back. People are staring at us," Jane told her friend nervously as she didn't like having so many people staring at them especially because the look they were giving them was not a pleasant look. The others all just nodded and agreed while trying to get Evie to give the toddler back her drawing, so she would stop throwing a fit and causing a scene.

Evie just looked at the toddler as she was feeling so embarrassed right now. "Mal stop crying. I'll give this back to you when you finish eating your food," Evie told the toddler who just kept crying as she wanted her drawing back. "No! Now! I wan id ba now!" The two year old screamed out as she began to make an even louder scene in the restaurant making the others even more embarrassed.

"Evie please just give her the drawing back. They are going to kick us out," Carlos told his big sister as he could see how angry all the other customers were getting as the toddler threw her tantrum.

Evie just looked at the toddler. "Mal look at me right now! You can't just throw a tantrum in public! Now you are going to stop crying and you are going to eat your lunch or you will be in timeout when we get home! Am I clear?" Evie scolded the toddler making her cry from Evie's harsher than normal voice.

"I sowy mommy. I e now. Pwease no yell," the toddler told Evie. Evie just smiled a bit as she wiped away the toddler's tears and hugged her closer. "It's okay sweetie. I won't yell anymore, but you need to eat now okay. And you can't act like that anymore. I thought we talked about this when you threw a tantrum in the store," Evie told the toddler in her calm voice making the toddler smile and nod as she reached for her food. Evie smiled in relief when the toddler began to eat her food and stop crying. Once Evie was sure that the toddler was eating her food Evie ate her own food along with the others.

Once they were all done Mal looked at Evie as she held her hand out. "Mommy! I finis me foo! I wan ba now!" The toddler told Evie while reaching towards her drawing and crayon. Evie just laughed as she handed the items back to the toddler who smiled happily. "Okay Mal here you go," Evie told the toddler with a smile. After another ten minutes they paid the check and left, getting back into the car to drive back home.

This time it was relaxed again as the toddler was now busy scribbling on her paper until she got tired and passed out making Evie and the others laugh as Evie reached over and grabbed the crayon and paper from the now sleeping toddler who was passed out clinging to her dragon.

A few minutes later Evie was passed out as well with her hands resting on the toddler as Evie had stayed up late with the toddler as Mal had woken up in the middle of the night crying because she wanted Evie to hold her and as soon as Evie tried to place her back down to sleep Mal freaked out and refused to stop crying.

The others just laughed as they watched Evie and the toddler sleep. "Aww that's adorable!" Jane told the others with a smile as she watched her friend sleep with her hand on the toddler. "I know right," Audrey told her friend as she agreed with her. The boys just nodded in agreement as they all started talking about their trip again for the next few hours while they drove home grateful that the toddler was finally calm and sleeping.

When they reached Auradon Prep Doug smiled as he shook his sleeping girlfriend who had slept all the way back after their lunch break. Evie just looked around in confusion until she realized that they were parked and they were back at Auradon Prep. Evie just smiled in embarrassment as she looked at all of her friends who were all waiting on her to wake up and get out of the car, so they could head back to their dorms. She then looked at the sleeping toddler as she carefully unbuckled her and picked her up deciding that she would bring everything back to the dorm first before waking the toddler since it would be easier that way.

Once they were all out of the car and had grabbed their things they all hugged each other goodbye and thanked each other for the fun trip as they all made their way back to their own dorms. Once Evie made it back she placed all her things down as she gently shook the toddler and smiled when the young girl woke up and clapped her hands excitedly while squirming to be put down when she realized they were back home.

"Yay! Mommy we howm! Wook mommy me twoys! An me be! Yay! Mommy me suf is ba! I miss id!" The small toddler screamed out happily as she smiled and pointed to all of her things that she had missed while they were gone. Evie just laughed at the hyper girl as she placed her down and sat on her bed to watch the happy girl who was now running around and touching all of her things.

Evie honestly felt the same way as the toddler. She loved taking that road trip and going on that beach trip, but she loved her little dorm. It was her home and there was nothing like being in her own dorm with the toddler all to herself.
