(A/N: there's gonna be a lot of POV switching here so try to stay with me and try not to get too confused haha)

Lauren's POV

It was about 5 pm when the girls came over to our house. Ty and I decided to get it over with and go out that night because we'd have the rest of the weekend with them that way, and if the girls were awake and up for it when we got home, we could hang out then too, with no interruptions from the kids because they'd be asleep. We got ready and left at about 7, after I throughly explained rules and consequences and what kids could and could not eat, etc. Ty and I got into the car and drove the the restaurant that we made reservations for.

Mani's POV

I figured it'd be easy enough to watch the kids, after all Dinah had many siblings, Ally was really mature, and I always strived for success. They were 4 kids under the age of 5, how hard could it be? (A/N: very hard lmaoo). Ally said that she'd begin their dinner while Dinah and I entertained them. I knew that because of Tyler's stomach problems, he'd probably just have a bottle and some kind of very soft and easily digestible food for dinner, while the rest of us had something else. I called down the kids who were "upstairs" (meaning that they were on their parents bed which was elevated). (A/N: remember they live in a trailer still). Dana came down and the twins followed, because they follow her everywhere. Tyler was up last night sick according to Lauren, so he was catching up on some sleep in his crib. Once the kids came into the living room, Dinah and I decided to see what they wanted to do. "Hey little ones, what's up?" Dinah asked. I looked at her and tried hard not to laugh. I looked at Dana's face, and she was clearly not amused. The twins looked at her and copied her face. Dana rolled her eyes and walked away. "Oi, come back here lil girl, unless you want a polybeatdown, courtesy of D-Mac!!" Dinah said as she smacked her fist into her open palm as sort of a "fight me" gesture. "Dinah!!" I scolded. "You can't just threaten helpless 4 years old, you're 22 get your shit together!" I said. "She knows what she's doing," Dinah said. I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Time Skip 1 hour

Ally's POV

The dinner was almost done cooking by the time the girls got Dana to come back to the group and sit with us at the table, as she had climbed onto her parents bed and refused to come down. I made grilled lemon pepper chicken and steamed veggies for the girls while I made the kids (Dana and the twins) chicken nuggets and fries and for Tyler I just heated up a bottle and got some applesauce out of the fridge. As the nuggets and fries were baking, the chicken was grilling, and the vegetables were steaming, I went to go check on everyone since they had been silent for a while. Dinah and Mani and the kids were watching Moana. I thought that was cute and stood there watching them for a minute. I smelt a weird smell, and after a second I determined it was the smell of smoke!! I ran to the kitchen area and quickly put on oven mitts and took out the baking sheet with the chicken nuggets and fries on it. They were all burnt to a crisp. And that was the last of them that they had, which meant the kids were stuck eating bland lemon pepper chicken and steamed veggies. I went to go break the news to them and they weren't happy about it. As soon as they came into the kitchen, I set the plates up with food. And we had some amazingly awkward small talk. A bit after dinner, the kids went to play while Dinah, Mani and I sat in the kitchen cleaning. Tyler was in his crib, not sleeping, but resting after eating which was recommended by his doctors. Dana said she had to use the bathroom, but Ty and Lauren told me earlier that she knew how to do it, so I let her do her business alone. After a few minutes when she hadn't come out, I got worried so I sent Dinah to check on her.

Dinah's POV

I went to the bathroom to check on Dana. I first knocked for the sake of privacy and I called her name once or twice. When I got no response, I opened the door and found Dana leaving over the bathtub which was filled partially with water and partially with bubbles. There were clothes in there that she was stirring with a baseball bat. When I looked closer, I discovered that it was a SIGNED baseball bat by Ty's favorite baseball player. I quickly grabbed Dana and pulled her away from the mess. "What the hell, Dana?! You can't do that!" I yelled out of a mix of shock and anger. She started to cry. "I'm sorry, I wanted to help wash the clothes." She said. "Okay, babes but you can't wash them in the dirty tub water with daddy's bat, and you can't do it by yourself." I said in a softer tone. I picked her up and brought her to Mani and Ally then returned to the bathroom to clean up before Tyren returned home.

Mani's POV

A few more things happened sporadically throughout the night before Ty and Lauren came home, such as the twins spilling paint all over the white shag carpet because they "wanted to make art like Mama", and Tyler throwing up in his crib, and losing, then finding, then accidentally breaking the kids' favorite DVD, Moana, and more. We had all had enough of the chaos. Ally more than anyone, shockingly. When Dana intentionally played obnoxiously loud music to piss us off, and Cathy found one of Lauren's vapes, and thinking it was a whistle, tried using it, Ally snapped. "That is it!! Everyone stop, just fucking stop!! I'm done with your shit. All of you, bed right now. Let's go, March!!" She marched the kids to bed as Dinah and I stood there, dumbfounded. I guess that's the end of Allysus...
