"That's the last of them." Michael said as he let out a breath.

Lisa walked up next to him and looked at her new home. "This is really happening now."

Michael nodded. "This is home now…" He grabbed Lisa's hand. "Are you ready?"

Lisa smiled at Michael and nodded. "Let's get the kids settled in their new rooms."


Michael knocked on Malcolm's door and slowly walked in. "How's everything going?"

Malcolm gave his dad a small smile and shrugged. "It's going… You and mom finished bringing in the boxes?"

"Yup, we just bought the last few in." Michael said as he sat on the bed. "How do you like the room?"

Malcolm smiled. "Honestly I love it, It's bigger and I have a lot more space in this one."

"I'm glad… I know you were a little iffy about the whole moving thing but I'm glad you came around."

Malcolm shrugged. "It's for Beca and Riley, I know we haven't known them long but it feels like we have and they're family and I love them… If doing this is gonna help them then I have no problem doing it."

Michael smiled. "I knew I was raising my kids right." He said with a wink. "I'll let you finish unpacking." He said before walking out the room.


"Principal Evans is really moving down the hall…" Chloe said as she laid on Beca's bed.

Beca let out a breath and nodded. "Yeah… it's for the best though… Riley needs him and his family."

Chloe nodded. "You need them too." She said as she grabbed Beca's hand. "Hopefully this won't put a damper on our alone time."

Beca smiled and kissed Chloe. "I won't let it. They said they wanted to talk to be about some things so I'm sure what you and I do will be apart of that discussion."

Chloe nodded and looked at the time. "I've gotta head home."

Beca sat up and grabbed her keys. "I'll take you."

"Thanks babe."

Beca nodded and they made their way down the stairs and out the door.

"Whoa whoa whoa, where are you going?" Michael asked before they could get out the house.

Beca quirked a brow. "Out…"

Michael folded his arms. "Beca…"

"What?" She looked at Chloe who was looking at her with wide eyes. "What ?" She asked again in confusion.

"That's not how you talk to people when they ask you where you're going, especially when they're taking care of you." Chloe whisper yelled.

Beca sighed and looked up at her Uncle. " Sorry Uncle Mike, I'm taking Chloe home then I'll be right back… twenty minutes tops."

Michael nodded. "Okay, twenty minutes."

Beca rolled her eyes and walked out the door with Chloe. "I'm regretting this already."

Chloe laughed. "Babe he just wanted to know where you were going."

Beca shrugged. "I'm not used to having to answer to anyone.. it's different having an authoritative figure in my life."

Chloe smiled. "You'll get used to it."


Beca pulled up to Chloe's house and smiled. "I wanna come in for a bit and see everybody, it's been awhile."

"My mom would love that." Chloe said happily.

They got out the car and walked into Chloe's house. "I'm home you guys." Chloe called out.

"And she's got someone with her!" Beca yelled.

Caleb ran into the room and hugged Beca. "I missed you!"

Beca laughed and hugged him back. "I missed you too Cal, how've you been?"

"I'm great! I lost a tooth the other day and got some money!"

Beca grinned. "That's awesome!"

Laura walked in the room with a smile. "I thought I heard my future daughter in law."

Beca laughed at the name Laura used for her and pulled her into a hug. "It's great to see you Laura."

Laura squeezed Beca tightly with a smile. "How are you? Chloe's told us a little of what's been going on."

"I'm good now." Beca said with a small nod. "I don't know how much Chlo told you, but it turns out Principal Evans is my uncle so we got to know each other and he decided to become Ry and mines guardian. Him and his family are actually in the process of moving in now."

"Wow that crazy that he's your uncle, but it's a blessing too." Laura said happily. "Now we don't have to worry about anyone splitting my Mitchell's up. I was actually talking to Richard about trying to do something to help, but Chloe told me you were already receiving help."

Beca smiled. "That's amazing… You're amazing Laura. I really appreciate you even having the thought to do something."

Laura nodded. "Of course, you've become apart of this family Beca."

Beca grinned. "I'm glad you feel that way, I love you guys."

"We love you too." Laura said happily. "Can you stay for dinner?"

Beca nodded. "Sure.."

Chloe nudged Beca's arm. "Babe you told your uncle you'd be back in twenty minutes."

Beca sighed. "I guess I can't.. I gotta get back to Ry anyway." Beca wrapped her arm around Chloe and pulled her into a kiss. "I love you."

Chloe smiled. "I love you too." Chloe bit her lip with a smile. "Can I come by after school tomorrow?"

"You sure can." Beca said happily. "I'll see you tomorrow."

Chloe nodded. "See you tomorrow, and I know it's gonna be hard having an authority figure in the house now but please try to keep the temper down."

"Will do, see ya babe, bye Laura."

Laura smiled. "See you next time honey."


Beca walked into her house with a small sigh. "Ry?"

"In the kitchen!"

Beca walked into the kitchen and found Riley sitting at the table with the Evans family. "What's going on here?"

Riley smiled. "Family dinner! We were waiting on you! Wash your hands and sit so we can eat."

Beca quirked a brow before making her way to the sink to wash her hands.

Michael smiled as Beca sat at the table. "Now we can get started…"

Beca nodded. "Yes the food looks great Aunt Lisa!" Beca said as she started eating.

Michael cleared his throat. "Beca have you said your prayer over the food?"

Beca frowned and shook her head. "Did you see me say my prayer over the food? No? I didn't think so…"

Lisa sighed. "Do you always have to make a smart remark."

Beca rolled her eyes. "I'm just saying.. He asked me a dumb ass question that he already knew the answer to. I never say a prayer of my food and neither does Riley."

"Would it kill you to try?" Riley asked angrily.

Beca's eyes widened. "Ry.."

"Don't mess this up Beca! This is our chance at happiness!"

Beca stood up. "I uh.. I'm actually not that hungry so I'm gonna go to my room."

"Bec-"

"Please! Just let me go.." Beca said pleadingly before running up the stairs.

Lisa shook her head. "I told you this would be a bad idea."

Michael sighed. "Come on Lis she's just having a hard time adjusting."

"Please don't leave us…" Ry said with wide eyes. "Beca's hardheaded but we need you.."

Lisa gave Riley a sad smile. "I know sweetheart, don't worry we'll never leave you."


"They've turned my sister against me!" Beca said to Chloe as she talked to her on the phone. "They're talking about saying a prayer over the food.. I've never done that before it's not how I was raised so how was I supposed to know I had to do that?"

Chloe let out a small sigh. "Babe they're not turning Riley against you, she's just more open to doing new things, although you have no problem praying with my family when you come for dinner."

"I don't have a problem with it all, it's just they expected me to do it and got all pissy with me when I told them I didn't… Riley fucking yelled at me!"

Chloe nodded. "And I'm sure you told them politely that you didn't…"

Beca sighed. "No.." Beca let out a frustrated breath. "Look I know I'm an ass but I just wanted to call my girlfriend to rant but it seems like I'm getting the same lecture I get from them from you so I'm gonna go."

"Be-"

"I'll see you tomorrow Chloe, goodnight." Beca said before hanging up. She let out a breath. "This sucks.." She stood up and walked out of her room going downstairs.

"Beca-"

"Look I'm sorry okay! I suck at the whole respecting adults thing… I just I need some space, I'm gonna go take a walk."

Michael shook his head. "If you need space you can go back to your room but you're not leaving out anymore tonight."

Beca quirked a brow and smirked. "You wanna bet? Listen man I get that you're doing me and my sister a huge favor and I appreciate it and I also know you're like our guardian now but I'm use to being on my own and I don't take well to people telling me what to do. I'm sorry but I'm going out and I'll be back."

Michael sighed. "Beca if you leave this hou-"

"What Uncle Michael? What are you going to do to me?" Beca said with a shrug. "I've been through anything you can imagine so what are you gonna do?"

Michael shook his head. "Who are you? Why are you acting like this?"

Beca laughed bitterly. "I'm a fucking Mitchell, we suck and do shit we aren't suppose to do. I'm sorry I'm not like you Evans."

"You are an Evans Beca.. Having your father's last name doesn't mean anything." Michael said pleadingly.

Beca shook her head. "I'm nearly eighteen unc it's too late for me.. You can still save Riley but you just gotta let me be."

"If you leave Beca don't come back tonight.."

Beca laughed. "Kicking me out of my own house… Wow."

"I'm not kicking you out, I'm telling you as your guardian not to leave or you can not return for the rest of the night."

Beca nodded. "Got it." She walked into the living where Riley was watching TV. "I'll see you in the morning Ry goodnight."

"Where you going Beca?"

"Just need some space, it's suddenly super crowded in here.. I'll be here in the morning to take you to school."

Riley sighed. "Okay, be safe."

Beca smiled and kissed her forehead. "Of course babygirl." She walked past Michael with a small nod. "See ya in the morning."

Michael sighed. "Beca." He said sternly.

"Just let me go." Beca said before walking out the door.


Beca pulled up to Chloe's house a few hours later with a sigh.

[Becs 2:17 AM] I'm outside your house, you awake?

[Chlo 2:20 AM] Babe it's late, I was sleep why are you outside my house?

[Becs 2:22 AM] Can I come in?

A few minutes passed before Beca saw the front door open. Beca let out a sigh of relief and got out of her car. "I'm sorry I know it's late, I just I needed space and he told me not to come back tonight if I left. I understand if you don't want me to stay, I can just sleep in my car."

Chloe grabbed Beca by the arm. "I'd never turn you away babe, come on but stay quiet."

Beca nodded and followed Chloe inside. "Thank you."

They got in Chloe's room and Chloe laid back in her bed. "So…"

"I'm fucking this up already Chloe but I just… ugh! I can't stand someone having power over me… I've had people telling me and forcing me to do things for so long that when I didn't I felt free.. And to have that freedom taken from me I just can't…"

Chloe nodded. "You know you're gonna have to apologize right? I get what you're saying and I'm sorry you're feeling that way but you need to apologize to him. If you want him to respect you and give you your space you're gonna have to respect him first, you came to him for help."

Beca sighed. "I know.. I can't wait until I turn eighteen."

"Hey…" Chloe said with a frown. "Principal Evans is doing you a favor Beca, he moved his whole family to you because you asked him to now you want him gone because a few things aren't going your way? You're acting like a baby.."

Beca rolled her eyes. "Chloe it's not like that."

"It sure as hell seems like it. You don't seem appreciative at all!"

Beca sat up with a sigh. "Maybe coming here was a mistake.."

"And now you wanna run off because you can't handle what I'm saying.." Chloe said with a frown. "You act like you're all grown up but really you act like a child Beca you need to grow up."

Beca nodded. "Okay.. You're right.. I'll fix things in the morning I promise and I'll try to be better… I'm sorry Chloe."

Chloe sighed. "I know you're sorry Beca."

"I don't want you to go to sleep angry with me.."

Chloe sat up and looked at Beca. "I think you need to learn to stop being so disrespectful and how to control your temper. If your guardian tells you that you can't leave the house after a certain hour you listen, it's okay to get upset sometimes but you don't just say fuck you and do it anyway."

Beca nodded. "You're right, I'll work on it I promise.." She grabbed Chloe's hands. "Are we good?"

Chloe gave Beca a small smile and nodded. "We're good."

Beca smiled and leaned forward to kiss Chloe. "I love you."

"I love you too babe." Chloe said with a yawn. "Can I go back to sleep now?"

Beca laughed. "Yes you may." She said as she laid next to Chloe.

"Get comfy Bec, take your clothes off it's fine."

Beca smiled and nodded. "Thanks. Hopefully no one comes in to check on you tonight."


"Chloe?" Beca whispered the next morning. "I should head home."

Chloe nodded. "I'll see you at school." She yawned out.

Beca kissed Chloe with smile before putting her clothes on. "Love you." She said as she walked out of Chloe's room. She tiptoed through the house and let out a sigh of relief when she made it out of the house without getting caught. She drove to her house and walked in with a small sigh.

"Good morning…"

Beca gave her uncle a small smile. "Uh good morning… Can we talk?"

Michael nodded and watched as Beca sat across from him in the kitchen. "How are you?"

"I'm fine.. Look Uncle Mike I'm sorry about last night and how I was acting, I was a dick and I should be a lot more appreciative towards you."

Michael let out a small sigh. "I understand this is hard for you, but you were very disrespectful to me and I don't appreciate you doing it in front of my kids and your sister.. It's setting a bad example and I know you're better than that."

Beca nodded. "You're right, I need to work on my anger and learn to respect you and your wife, hell the whole family… I just I'm not use to having someone controlling me."

"I don't want to control you Beca.. I just- kids and teens need some type of discipline, that's why there are parents, and teachers, and principals… Do you get it?"

Beca nodded. "I do, I just ask that you bear with me… I'm trying to better myself and Chloe has been on my ass about it."

"Could you try to calm down the language… at least around the kids.."

Beca gave Michael a small smile and nodded. "Of course.'"

Michael smiled. "Now we're getting somewhere… Go get ready for school."

Beca stood up and nodded. "Yes sir." She said obediently before making her way to her room.

Lisa walked into the room and wrapped her arms around him. "Think that was a breakthrough?"

Michael let out a small sigh and shrugged. "I honestly don't know, I hope so… I can tell she really wants to try."

Lisa smiled. "I think she can.. She's had a rough life but hopefully we can make it a little easier."
