Part of The Making of a Home series
Summary: Evelyn gets to tag along to one of Jim’s lectures, but toddlers and sitting still isn’t a realistic combination.
A/N: If you’re reading The Making of a Home series chronologically: This fic takes place between chapter 2 and chapter 3 of “And then there were two…”
Jim was supposed to just be home grading papers and caring for Evie that day, rather than frantically packing up a bag while on the phone with his co-instructor, Robert Fletcher.
“Well, take care of yourself, and send over the lesson plan,” Jim sighed. Of all the diseases that could be cured or vaccinated against, apparently the common cold was not one.
“Of course. Sending it now,” Robert answered.
“Thank you.” Jim looked down at his PADD to see the lesson plan.
After another “get well soon”, Jim hung up and reviewed the lesson plan as he called Chris then Phil to ask if they could watch Evie, only to discover they were both busy.
“Papa,” Evie said as she walked out of the master bedroom where she’d slept half the night between Leonard and Jim after a nightmare.
Jim turned around and smiled at her. “Hey, sweetheart. You want some breakfast?”
She nodded, following him to the kitchen. He warmed up a pancake and cut up some fruit for her. Once she was settled eating her breakfast at the table, he went back to getting his things together.
“Evie, you know what you get to do today? You get to come to work with Papa,” he said cheerfully.
“Really?” She bounced a little in her seat.
“Really. You have to be good while I’m working. Think you can do that?”
