A Long Night
Once Carlos had just taken off after their fight Ava just sat on her bed and began to sob and down drinks again as she had probably just lost her brother. "Ugh why is life so hard!" Ava practically screamed out as she was angry, grieving, and drunk. She had even forgotten that the toddler was still there as Mal had woken up from the fight and was trying to stay silent, so Ava wouldn't notice her.
The small toddler that had been sleeping just quickly got up from the bed as she was scared by Ava's attitude and her voice. It reminded her of the mean lady as the mean lady always yelled and she had a special drink like Ava was drinking and whenever she had her special drink she became the scariest.
When Ava saw the toddler trying to get up and away from her she began to get more upset as it seemed Mal was going to leave her too and she was literally going to have no one as her parents left, she had no real friends her friends were fake, she lost her boyfriend, her little brother hated her, and now her baby sister was afraid of her and trying to get away.
"Ugh what Mal are you just going to leave me too? Go ahead! Just leave like Carlos did because Carlos is right okay! I'm a bad big sister and Carlos is better than I am!" Ava screamed out to the toddler making the toddler just start crying as she tried to quickly get off the bed, but ended up losing her balance almost falling off the bed, but Ava had managed to catch her before she could hit the ground.
Mal just clung onto Ava as Ava had just saved her from falling, but she was also in complete shock as the mean lady never caught her when she was falling in fact the mean lady would just laugh whenever Mal would fall down.
"You sab me! You no wa me faw! I wob you Aba!" The toddler told her big sister as she just hugged onto her now feeling safe with Ava as Ava had just proved to her that she could trust her as Ava had helped her instead of just watching.
Ava didn't really know how to feel about what just happened. She was happy that her sister still loved her, but why was she so shocked that Ava would catch her and not just let her fall. Ava decided that it was probably just some toddler thing and that it wasn't anything to worry about.
"Of course I saved you Mal. You're my little sister. I'm not going to just let you get hurt," Ava told the toddler who just smiled as she curled up on Ava again and fell asleep. Ava just sighed as it was late and she was tired.
She just carefully picked up the two year old and was about to take her to her spot on the couch that the small girl had been sleeping on as her crib wasn't there yet and Ava couldn't afford a play pen until then, but the small girl just clung onto her as she woke up a bit.
"Aba pwease no weabe me. I scawew," the toddler cried out making Ava just sigh as she just made her way to her bed with the toddler not wanting to argue with the small girl as it was late.
Once she got back to the bed Ava just got on her bed and moved the toddler so that she was safe on the bed as she fell asleep with the toddler next to her. While Ava was sleeping Carlos and Jane came back in and saw that Ava was sleeping and Mal was sleeping right beside her.
Carlos just quickly decided to just leave Ava note as he wanted to take Jane back to Auradon since he didn't want her to go back alone and he wanted to talk with Ava, but Ava was sleeping, so he figured it would be best to take Jane back home first.
Once Carlos finished the note he quietly left the note by Ava's night stand as he looked at Jane. "Okay come on I left a note. Let's get you back to Auradon. I can apologize to her when we get back since it's a long trip to get to Auradon and we need to get back before your mom starts to worry," Carlos told his friend, making Jane blush as she grabbed his hand and they left to go back to Auradon.
After Carlos and Jane had left Ava and Mal continued to sleep peacefully until the door was opened again this time it was louder and immediately woke up the toddler making her cry. Ava just immediately jumped up awake as she looked at the crying toddler.
"Mal what's wrong," Ava asked the small girl as she was too distracted by the crying toddler to notice her two "friends" that had broken into her dorm in the middle of the night. The small toddler just pointed to the two other people in the room as she began to keep crying. "Swanwers! An dey wo me up!" The toddler cried out, making Ava look up and notice her two "friends" that had just broken into her room and rudely woken up her baby sister.
"What the hell! Are you crazy! You can't just barge into my room in the middle of the night! You just rudely woke up my baby sister! I just got her to sleep!" Ava screamed out to the other two people in her room as she was angry with them for breaking in and scaring her sister and she still didn't even trust them especially after the whole Nolan incident.
Caitlin just sighed as she looked at Ava. "Sorry, but look we didn't kill Nolan we need you to understand that tonight," Caitlin told the upset girl as she and Dylan needed Ava for their pretend possy as they needed to look like everything was normal to avoid suspicions about Nolan.
Ava just rolled her eyes as she finally got the toddler to calm down, but not sleep as Mal was refusing to sleep now as she just sat on the bed playing with her dragon and bottle while sucking on her pacifier. Ava just moved her eyes from the toddler to her two fake friends.
"How did you get in here," Ava asked the two as she had locked the door before going to sleep. Dylan just sighed as he looked at his "friend" in concern as she looked like a mess. "You haven't left your room for days. It wasn't hard to convince the RA to let us in," Dylan told Ava and Caitlin decided to join in trying to help him.
"Yeah we just said that your friends were concerned about you. Also Ava I don't think you should be drinking when you're supposed to be watching a toddler," Caitlin told her "friend" making Ava just roll her eyes and get even more upset.
"We are not friends! And you two need to mind your own business. I'm an adult and Mal is perfectly fine. Now excuse me," Ava told the group as she got up from her bed and dumped her solo cup on top of her stack of others that she had on her dresser.
"Look why don't we make you some coffee and one of us can take your sister for you tonight. You don't seem like you're in the right mindset right now," Dylan told Ava as he pointed to the toddler that was playing with her bottle and trying to drink from it even though there was no milk in it.
Ava just rolled her eyes again as she didn't like the fake concern from her fake friends that didn't even know anything about her or what she has gone through. "Why don't you just tell me why you're here and stop pretending to be worried about me or Mal because we all know why you're really here," Ava told the two with an attitude.
Caitlin just sighed as she looked at Ava. "Okay we know how this looks, but we didn't kill Nolan. We were all together that night and we went back because we heard the sirens. That's why we went back," Caitlin told her "friend", making Dylan join in again hoping to convince Ava to help them.
"We may not trust each other, but we need each other," Dylan told Ava as they needed to be Nolan's "perfect" possy at his funeral and that meant pretending they were all real friends and Caitlin was his grieving girlfriend as Ava had been his secret girlfriend while he pretended to date Caitlin as his mom loved Caitlin, but hated Ava because of her family and her image.
"Let me guess you want me to hold your hand while you pretend to be his grieving widow. Do you even hear yourself? I loved him! And in case you can't see I'm trying to take care of a toddler on my own! So just get out of here," Ava screamed out as she grabbed the baby bottle from the toddler and just quickly filled it with strawberry milk that she had bought and now kept in the dorm in a mini fridge that she got as she didn't like leaving her dorm and that was the only thing she could get Mal to take down other than strawberries that she also kept in the fridge. She then handed it back to the small girl who just quickly began to drink it.
"Look we know it's a lot to ask and we understand that you are trying to look after your sister, but if we don't go it will look suspicious and until they find out who killed Nolan everyone is a suspect and we can't afford to have the cops digging around in our business. We need to just lay low and keep playing our roles. Just think about what will happen to your sister if they find something suspicious and you end up in jail even if we didn't do it," Dylan told Ava and Ava just sighed as she looked at the two of them.
"Fine I'll go, but I'm not doing this for you two I'm doing this for Mal. Now get out! It's late and now thanks to you two I now have to put a toddler back to bed and she's more awake now which just makes it harder on me," Ava screamed out in frustration as she just opened her door and shoved her two fake friends out the door before they could say anything more as she was mad at them for interrupting her sleep and Mal's sleep just to force her to go to her boyfriend's funeral and no one could even know that she was his girlfriend before he had died.
After she got her fake friends out of her dorm she just shut the door as she looked at the night stand seeing the note she just quickly read it and then sighed. Well at least he left a note this time she thought as she placed the note down and looked over at the now hyper toddler that was up and jumping on the bed as she was no longer sleepy. She just sighed knowing this was going to be another challenge that she just wasn't in the mood for.
"Alright Mal come on it's bed time again. It's late," Ava told the toddler, causing the small girl to just shake her head no as she continued to jump on the bed. "No! I no sweepy no mow! I wanna pway now!" The toddler screamed out making Ava just groan as she was not in the mood to be dealing with a hyper two year old late at night and she was so mad at her fake friends for doing this to her when she had already had Mal sleeping.
"Ugh this is going to be a long night and tomorrow is going to be a long day," Ava groaned out as she looked at the two year old that was still jumping on the bed and now singing in her loud voice as she was now jumping and singing the baby shark song.
