Evelyn Hayden never had a mother daughter relationship with her Lorelai because Lorelai chose not to acknowledge her and only ever payed attention to Rory. She had been living with her father Christopher Hayden ever since her suicide attempts. The first attempt happened when she was  11, she tried to overdose on her mother's sleeping pills in the bathroom, her sister found her on floor unresponsive and alerted her next door neighbors Babette and Marty, she got rushed to the hospital. The second attempt was when turned 13, she and tried to hang herself with a rope on the chandelier in her room. Again, Rory walked in on time and cut her down, she was unresponsive and had to get rushed to the hospital again. Her mother Lorelai didn't want to take care of her, she claims it's because of her chronic suicide attempts but in reality she never liked Evelyn scince birth. Only 2 days after her daughter was released from the hospital she dropped her off at a nearby gas station telling her that her dad was gonna pick her up.

3 months into living with her dad she started seeing his bad side, The side that always made her days miserable. He would drink so much liquor that he could barely stand up and walk. When she would get home from school instead of living a normal teenage life she'd have to take care of her dad. She was basically more if a wife than a daughter. A married couple that didn't have sex or kiss on the mouth.

Evelyn was a student at Chilton just like her sister. She had two friends, Madeline and Louis. To her they were more than just her friends, they were her sisters, two girls that helped her forget about life, girls that made her feel happy and free.

"Evelyn!"-Christopher called out her name as he stumbled into the apartment.

"Evel-"-Christopher fell on the floor due to his lack of balance.

7:30am

Evelyn was returning home after spending the night at Madeline's house. The door to the apartment was cracked and when she pushed it open she saw her dad on the floor unconscious. She walked over to him and checked his breathing. His breath reeked of alcohol so she knew he'd wake up eventually.

She walked into her room and changed into her Chilton uniform before walking back out of the apartment and heading to school.
