It was Friday night at last, the day everyone gets to enjoy after a grueling week of school, kids and teens can finally relax and let their minds be free of all stress (unless you were given extra homework), All is silent in the dead of night as lights emit from late night business places around town, and now we set our sights on Lincoln Loud, the only boy in a family of ten sisters (what's wrong with the parents?!), he wanders through the town late at night.
"Hey everyone, you're probably wondering 'Lincoln why are you out here at night instead of relaxing in your room reading comics in your undies?' well to answer your question I have to-" "THUD!" before Lincoln could continue he bumps into someone causing him to fall as well as the other "Hey watch it- Lincoln?" Lincoln looks to see who said that "Carol Pingrey?!" Lincoln says in shock.
But she wasn't alone he sees both Dana and Becky as well, the other two teens help Carol up, thinking that he's caused enough trouble for one day "Sorry for running into you, I'll just get out of your hair" Lincoln then walks away leaving the girls a little confused, but for Carol noticed something was wrong, even though she's never fully known him.
She heard from Lori how positive her brother can be and that was not a positive tone "Hey Lincoln wait!" Lincoln turns around and sees them walk towards him 'and I'm in trouble' as Lincoln waits for either a scolding or pinching by the ear "You weren't the one who made a mistake, it was my fault! I was too busy texting that I didn't see you" Carol says making Lincoln shocked "So technically I should be the one to apologize"
Lincoln could tell she was being sincere "Oh well okay then, at least no one got hurt, I'll be going now" but just as he leaves "Hold it there little Loud" Becky calls to him, he turns around to face them "What are you doing here this late at night?" Becky asks "Shouldn't you be at home with your sisters or something?" Dana adds in question, Lincoln just looks down in sadness, seeing this they feel like something was terribly wrong "Lincoln?" Dana asks again.
Lincoln lets out a sigh "The reason why I'm out here is because I just need some time away from the stress my sisters have been giving me, it's just too much to handle right now" Lincoln explains to the girls, they then feel pity for the little guy 'he's eleven why is he getting stressed like this' Carol thinks of an idea then gets one, she whispers to her other friends while Lincoln looks at them in confusion.
"How would you like to tag along with us?" Carol asks catching Lincoln off by surprise "Tag along? Where are you guys going anyway?" Lincoln asks them "Well there's this party going on right now and we randomly got invited, so how about it Linc?" Becky says.
Lincoln ponders of what to do "That sounds like a swell idea, but I don't wanna cramp your style, I should be going" as Lincoln was about to leave Dana grabs him by his shoulder "Wait, please, we know you're going through bad stuff, and it's Friday night! You should be having fun, and you won't be cramping our style, please?" Lincoln looks at Dana who uses puppy dog eyes, then he sees Carol and Becky doing the same thing, giving out a sigh "Alright I'll tag along" Lincoln says in defeat while trying to smile "Awesome" "Let's go" the girls cheer, Lincoln follows them to the party.
Along the way Carol notices Lincoln's general expression "You okay kid?" she asks as Lincoln looks towards her trying to fake the smile "I'm fine" he replies, they continue walking but Carol knows he is not fine.
It wasn't long until they finally arrived to their destination, Lincoln didn't see the house because he was too busy looking down but he was following the girls movement "We're here Lincoln" Dana says, Lincoln perks his head up and sees the party going on, there was a buffet table with a make you own sandwich station, A water slide and a pool? 'This looks familiar' Lincoln thinks "Hey guys welcome to the party and- Lincoln?"
Lincoln turns to see who it was "Girl Jordan?" Lincoln says in shock "It's good to see you too" Girl Jordan greets him, the three teen look between the two kids "Oh so you know each other?" Becky asks in a sly tone "Yeah we're classmates at school" Lincoln replies "so you're both friends?" Dana adds "Or more than friends?" Carol escalates the conversation.
The two kids blush "Wha…. No…… we're just friends" Lincoln stutters "Yeah friends" Girl Jordan adds, but the three teens just giggle at their awkwardness "Never mind that, so Linc what are you doing here? And why were you accompanied by these three?" Girl Jordan asks, Lincoln sighs "I was just wandering around the town and then I bumped into Carol here" Lincoln confesses "actually I bumped into you, I was texting while walking, so I felt bad for him and decided to let him tag along" Carol says.
But leaves out the reason why Lincoln was out at night, Girl Jordan looks at them with suspiciously "Okay then, well enjoy the party" Girl Jordan says and goes back to check on the other party goers, Lincoln sighs in relief then looks to Carol "Thanks for not telling her why I was out there" Lincoln says "What's happening to you is personal, besides I won't tell anyone unless it's your permission" Carol pats his head "Now come on it's party time" they all head in for some fun.
Everyone is enjoying the party with high spirits and its already midnight and everyone isn't even sleepy yet, People screaming from the cannonballs, making their own sandwiches, enjoying the buffet and the water slide, Girl Jordan goes around to see if everyone is having a good time.
Then she sees someone who doesn't look like he isn't having a good time, Lincoln Loud sitting by himself near the shed just watching everyone enjoy themselves, he lets out a sigh and looks down while holding onto his arms, Girl Jordan knew something was wrong and she didn't like seeing Lincoln like this 'Not that there's another reason why I'm suddenly going over to him!' Girl Jordan says to her thoughts.
"Hey Lincoln you okay?" Lincoln looks up to see her standing in front of him "Oh hey Girl Jordan" Lincoln tries to show some positivity but she knows he's not happy at all, she gets a chair and sits next to him, Carol and her friends are busy enjoying the music, But then Carol notices Lincoln looking down and Girl Jordan sitting next to him "Girl's come on" Carol says getting the attention of Dana and Becky.
"Lincoln, I know something's wrong with you, Whats up?" Girl Jordan asks him, Lincoln looks at her concerned face and knows there's no getting out of this, he sighs in defeat "You wanna know whats going on with me?" Girl Jordan nods in response "I was out wandering, because I was trying to get away from all the stress my sisters are giving me" Lincoln says "What do you mean?" Girl Jordan asks.
Lincoln tells her of the many times he's had to cover for them, the cereal incident, the brawls, the feuds, the insults, the fact that Lori isn't even helping out in the morning, the threats, the messes he tries to clean up and the never ending noise "Whoa that was a lot to take in!" Girl Jordan says in a state of disbelief, she then looks towards Lincoln who now looks as if he's gonna cry "There must be someone in your family who might've helped you?" Girl Jordan asks in concern "My parents only deal with the minor problems and I'm stuck dealing with the critical ones, but if there's one person I would've expected to help me it would've been Luna" Girl Jordan looks at him confused "You mean your rock star sister?" Lincoln nods in response "She's the whole reason why I want to become an awesome big brother, because she was an awesome big sister, but now, I don't think she even notices what I'm going through"
Lincoln looks down almost ready to cry, Girl Jordan just couldn't believe what she's hearing, Lincoln Loud, the boy in school who has a kind and selfless heart, the man with the plan, the brother of ten sisters is in deep emotional pain, she just couldn't bear to see him like this, she puts her hand on his hand, this surprises Lincoln who then looks towards her, she gives him a comforting smile that slowly eases him 'Why is she co cute when she smiles like that?' in Lincolns thoughts,.
Then they hear someone cough, they see Carol, Dana and Becky who look like they were crying, the three teens slowly approach them "Oh Lincoln we didn't know you were going though that" Dana says "That was the saddest thing I've ever heard" Becky adds, then Carol stoops down to his level and wipes away a tear that was close to leaving his eye, then she shocks Lincoln by hugging him, then Dana, Becky and Girl Jordan join in, Lincoln's emotions start rattling inside him, even though he's been hugged like this before, this was different, slowly he returns the hug and cries on carol's shoulder, what he's feeling was more than a hug, it was a comforting hug, from people who care for him.
After the group hug Carol looks at Lincoln and sees the young boy's smile that everyone knows "Feeling better now?" Carol asks "Yeah, I am! Thanks guys!" Lincoln replies, even Girl Jordan was happy for him "Now come on, let's go get our groove on" as the girls guide Lincoln into the heart of the party, while walking Girl Jordan speaks to him "Lincoln you don't need to keep calling me Girl Jordan" Lincoln looks at her confused "Just….. Jordan will do!" as Jordan looks away blushing "Okay Jordan" Lincoln responds, carol takes notice of this and smiles at how cute they were.
