A/N: This is my first Loud House fanfiction. Even though I have seen every episode thus far, I might not represent the characters that well. However, I'm going to do the best I can to represent the characters somewhat accurately. This is also a self insert, so the OC in this story is me. Read and review.

After retrieving his stuff from his backpack and and gingerly placing said backpack on the floor under his desk, Lincoln Loud settled into his desk. He watched as more of his classmates filed into the classroom. Clyde came in and waved at Lincoln, to which the white-haired boy waved back.

"Hey Clyde," Lincoln greeted happily.

"Hey Lincoln. Did you hear the news?" Clyde said as he sat down in the desk directly behind Lincoln.

"No. What news?" Lincoln inquires.

"We're getting a new student. I overheard the principal talking to Mrs. Johnson," Clyde explains.

"A new student. This oughta be interesting," Lincoln says.

After the rest of the students came in, Mrs. Johnson came in. She held her arms out.

"Alright kids, calm down," Mrs. Johnson instructed.

The kids stopped talking and looked at their teacher. Lincoln and Clyde listened intently at the announcement of their new classmate.

"We have a new student joining us today," Mrs. Johnson announced. She turned to the door, "come on in, young lady."

A female student cautiously stepped into the classroom. Her eyes were fixated to the ground, which was a clear sign that she was very shy and probably didn't want to be there. She had light brown skin and long dark hair. Her hair looked black but it's actually dark brown. She wore a yellow short sleeved shirt, black sweatpants, black sneakers with white and pink stripes, and a large pink bow in her hair.

"So, tell the class your name and something about yourself," Mrs. Johnson suggested as she sat in her desk.

"Um, Ok. Um, I'm Adriana. I'm from Denver Colorado. And… I'm very shy so forgive me for not talking a lot," the girl said.

"Excellent," Mrs. Johnson said, "now go ahead and have a seat."

Adriana spotted an empty desk that coincidentally happened to be right next to Lincoln. She walked towards it without looking at the other students. Once she sat down, she sat silently waiting for class to start.

"Ahem," Lincoln said, trying to get the new girl's attention. She looked over at him.

"Hi, I'm Lincoln Loud, and this is my friend Clyde McBride," Lincoln introduced while gesturing his thumb at Clyde.

"Nice to meet you," Clyde greeted as he held out his hand. Adriana cautiously grabbed Clyde's hand and slowly shook it. Then, Lincoln held out his own hand so Adriana can shake it.

"Your name is Lincoln?" Adriana says.

"Yeah. It's weird, I know," Lincoln chuckled.

Adriana gave a smirk. "I never said that. I've just never heard of someone named Lincoln before. Except Abraham Lincoln."

As the day went on, Adriana remained mostly silent. The only times she spoke were when Lincoln, Clyde, and Mrs. Johnson talked to her first.
