Comforting CrewChapter 2

As the party goes on everybody gets their groove on especially the Loud boy whose there to relax, on the dance floor Lincoln does some dance moves that really blow everyone else away' Thank you Luna' Lincoln thinks to himself, Lincoln grabs someone and starts dancing with that person

But as Lincoln dances he then realizes who he grabbed was none other than "Christina" Lincoln says in shock while still dancing, but slowing down a bit "What are you slowing down for Loud, get your groove on"

Though he feels nervous about this, Lincoln knows Christina has a point and he dances off next to her the song keeps changing from different genres, disco, hip-hop, techno even reggae, soon Lincoln just sits back on a chair and tries to catch his breath "That was awesome" "You got that right" says Christina

Lincoln looks up to see her also panting, he then gets a nervous rush "Hey Christina, fancy seeing you here" Christina giggles at his remark "Likewise, it's nice to see another familiar face" the two kids laugh a little "I haven't seen you since…. Well the…… video competition" Lincoln looks away feeling guilt

Christina could see that was bothering him "Hey it's okay Lincoln, no one got hurt, well except your credibility and mine I guess, which is why I transferred schools" the two kids look away from each other "So did you make up to your sisters after what you posted?" Christina asks, hearing those words struck him hard "Yeah I did, they were cool with it afterwards" Lincoln looks down upset again

Christina sees the pain in his eyes "Something bothering you Lincoln?" she asks him "It's just … nothing" Lincoln tries to smile, Christina knows he's forcing it "Why are you here Lincoln?" Lincoln then tells her of what's been going on and why he's there "Oh my, Lincoln I'm so sorry" Christina says to comfort him "It's fine at least there are some people here who care "Like me?" hearing this he looks at her and sees her caring smile

"I know we haven't fully known each other, but you should know that you don't have to keep pushing yourself just for your sisters like that" Christina says, making him smile at her remark "By the way why are you here?" Lincoln asks her now "Well, Jordan invited me earlier, I thought that I shouldn't, but I had no plans so what the heck! And it's nice to catch up with old friends, like you" Lincoln blushes at this

To make him feel better she hugs him, catching him completely off guard, he slowly returns the hug then they break the embrace "Well I'll see you around, I'm gonna go mingle with any other old classmates here" Christina takes her leave leaving Lincoln to ponder on her words

As the party goes on, the DJ aka Sam Sharp, grabs make an announcement "Alright my party peeps, it's karaoke time! Any brave soul out there ready to turn it up?!" everyone cheers as the spotlight searches through the crowd and it lands on Lincoln who looks in shock 'Oh man!'

And we've got a winner! Get on here little dude!" Sam motions Lincoln to come up stage with everyone else joining in as well, seeing no way out of this he heads straight for the stage 'Wait a minute is that Luna's little bro?' Sam lowers her shades and sees her vision is correct it was Lincoln Loud

As Lincoln gets on stage everyone cheers "Alright kid, what song you gonna play? Sam asks, Lincoln thinks then whispers to her "Ooooh! We got ourselves a working man! Hit it kid!" Sam then plays the theme song of 'Everybody's working for the weekend by lover boy' and surprisingly Lincoln performed more than good, people are cheering wildly 'this kid's got some rhythm!' as Sam looks on at the eleven year old singing away

As the song comes to a close everybody is off their rockers from his song 'I never knew Lincoln could sing like that' both Jordan and Christina think to themselves, Lincoln takes a bow as everyone cheers "Give it up for Lincoln Loud everybody!" Sam finishes off "Alright now I'm gonna leave this to 'Club can't handle me' be back in a jiff" Sam takes off then sees Lincoln grabbing a soda "Hey Lincoln" the ashen haired boy turns to see "Oh Sam! I knew the DJ looked familiar" Sam chuckles at hi words

"I never knew you could sing like that! It was incredible!" Sam says to Lincoln making him blush "Oh it was nothing really!" Sam sees his expression and smiles "Come on! You were like a natural up there! Guess spending time with my babe Lunes made you a singing upstart huh?" Lincoln looks down again 'Luna' he thinks to himself, Sam then notices his expression "Dude?" she asks him "You okay?"

Lincoln looks towards her "Yeah I'm fine" Sam puts her hands to her hips "Don't lie to me Linc, I can see when someone's bothered, whats wrong?" then Sam thinks "Does this have anything to do with your sisters?" Lincoln looks away, Sam sighs "Thought so, is it about ….. Luna?" Lincoln is surprised at her words and decides to tell her everything that's been happening

"Luna's the closest sister to me, even more closer than any of the others, I just never though she would make me feel this way" Lincoln looks down in sadness 'Luna, why aren't you looking out for your little bro' Sam says in her mind, she walks to Lincoln and kneels down to his level and hugs him, Lincoln wasn't surprised by this "I never knew you and Luna were so close, and I never knew she would drive you through all this" Lincoln also returns the hug

"Please don't be mad at Luna, I don't wanna see her heart broken" Lincoln whimpers, Sam lets go of the hug and looks at him with a smile "I would never hurt your sister, but I will have a talk with her about this, right now you should enjoy yourself" Lincoln wipes away some tears and smile "Thanks Sam, you kinda remind me of Luna" Sam blushes and ruffles his hair "I gotta get back to my set, get out there and have fun Lincoln" Lincoln runs off back into the party, while Sam heads back on stage thinking 'I'm definitely having a long talk with my GF'

Lincoln arrives at the make your own sandwich station, he grabs some bread, lettuce, cheese, pickles, relish, peanut butter and a few ham slices, he takes one look at his master piece then realizes what could finish it off 'Bacon' he grabs some bacon but doesn't know that the one bacon he grabbed was pulled back

Lincoln turns to see who also has they're hands on it "Renee?" the brown haired pony tail girl looks at him "Hey you're the kid from the comic book store!" Renee then notices the bacon "Oops! Sorry didn't know you were going for some bacon as well kid" Renee lets go "No problem, names Lincoln by the way and I also didn't know you were gonna grab some bacon too"

"Nice stack by the way" Lincoln sees her sandwich composed of Salami, Lettuce, Cheese, Mustard, Ketchup, Relish, Onions, Tomatoes, Pickles and ham "Thanks Lincoln, just finished dancing over there and I am starving!" Renee holds her stomach, Lincoln laughs a little "Same here" they both grab their creations "You wanna go eat this somewhere else? We can chat a little" Renee offers "Sure why not" Lincoln follows her to some nearby seats

After eating and talking about Ace Savvy both kids burp loudly at each other, they stop in silence then laugh at their own actions, Renee then thinks of something "Hey Lincoln, I just wanna say sorry for that time I fought for the last Ace Savvy Christmas edition last time" Lincoln looks to her "Hey no problem Renee, it's not the first time I did that" Renee chuckles a little "Guess that's what we both have in common huh?" Lincoln also chuckles "20 times" Lincoln says "29 times" Renee crosses her arms "Whoa, that's a lot of fights for a comic, guess I made the number right?" Lincoln adds "Yeah you pretty much did" both kids laugh again

"So what brings you here at this late night party?" Renee asks "Well just trying to get some relax time from my ten sisters" Lincoln replies, Renee spits out her drink "You have ten sisters?! No way?!" Lincoln smirks a bit then tells her whats been happening, Renee looks at him with concern "Whoa, that's a lot to take in, it must be hard reading comics huh?" Lincoln just looks down "You have no idea, we're not called the Loud House for nothing" Renee feels bad for him

"I don't usually do this but" Renee hugs him "From one ace Savvy fan to another, don't go beating yourself up like that, you've got other people who care" Lincoln smiles, then Renee breaks he hug and lightly punches his shoulder "I'm gonna go see of my friends are around, see you around Ace!" Renee takes her leave, while Lincoln heads back to whatever he can occupy himself 'That was nice' he says to himself

As Lincoln walks around the party he hears someone calling him "Hey Lincoln" he turns to see Dana was the one calling him, but she wasn't alone "Hey Dana what's up?" Lincoln asks "You guys remember Lincoln right?" Dana asks her friends "Oh yeah! You were the kid at Lori's party!" Whitney says "The one with the cool party tricks!" Teri adds "Mr. Linconovitch Loudinski!" Benny replies "Chaz liked what you did little man" Chaz says in a cool way

"Lincoln I think you know them right?" Dana asks him "Hmmm, let me get this right, Whitney, Teri, Joey and Chaz" Lincoln says "Good memory kid" Teri says "How you know about us?" Whitney adds "Well besides the party, Lori mentions you sometimes" he points to Whitney "You live across from the McBride's" to Teri "You're Luan's crush" to Benny "Leni sometimes mentions about you, especially sending her cat videos" the teens are shocked at his words, except Chaz "There's only one thing you left out" Lincoln looks confused "What?" Dana smiles "Dana and me are sibs" Chaz says as Dana stands next to him

Lincoln looks in disbelief "Did not see that coming" the teens chuckle "Hey at least you got the rest of us right" Teri says "Yeah I did" Lincoln blushes, then Whitney remembers what Dana told her "Lincoln, we know why you're here" Lincoln's expression changer again "Dana told you?" Dana looks away nervously "Sorry Linc, but you needed to let them know what you sisters have done" Lincoln just sighs "It's okay, I guess I don't mind" Teri goes down to his level "I'm so sorry you have to put up with your sisters" she says while placing a hand on his shoulder

"Especially Luan, I know she can be a little mischievous, but I never knew she would go that far on April fools!" Benny says feeling almost heartbroken "April fool's is about laughing with others, not laughing at their misfortune!" Lincoln still looks away "I know Leni isn't really the smartest, but doesn't she see what's happening to you?" Chaz asks Lincoln "You do know she can be easily manipulated by the others?" Lincoln says in a sad tone "Oh yeah!" Chaz realizes

"And we all know how Lori is, especially at golf" Whitney scoffs, the teens then notice Lincoln's hurt expression after hearing about Lori, the two teen girls give him a comforting hug "It's okay Lincoln, they're not here now to make your life more stressful as it is" Teri says "We got your back little man" Chaz declares "And I'll try to talk some sense into Luan" Benny says "Especially me!" he pulls out Mrs. Appleblossom his creepy looking puppet, startling everyone "Do not be alarmed young man, if Luan is like this then Mr. Coconuts as well, I assure you we'll get to the bottom of this" the puppet says, Lincoln smiles nervously "Yeah thanks" Dana smiles at her friends helping out "We should let you get back to the fun, if you need some emotional support just come find us" Dana says "Later Linc" "See you around kid" "Have fun man" "Quite so Benjamin" "Why did you bring that here?" the teens head off elsewhere

Lincoln goes back to walking around, until he notices something odd, a teenage girl on her phone sitting by herself looking gloomy "Maggie?" Lincoln says as she looks at him "Do I know you?" she asks in a dark tone "I'll give you a hint" Lincoln pretends he's in a box, Maggie's eyes light up when she realizes "You're that dumb clown from my party" Lincoln stops and looks nervous "Yeah that's me Lincoln Loud, the dumb clown" Maggie then calms down "But you did make up for it with that miming stick, you were pretty good" Lincoln smiles at the remark

"Thanks, I guess, so what brings you here, I mean it's not the emo party you'd like to hang around" Lincoln asks her "She's here because of me" Lincoln staggers back from her sudden appearance "Haiku?" Lincoln calms down and asks "Hello Lincoln Loud, It's nice to see you here again" Haiku says "You too Haiku, still dark and gloomy?" Lincoln asks Haiku nods in response "There's no other path I would choose, than this eerie shadow I have taken and expect to continue" Lincoln smiles at her words "I'm no Goth, but that was pretty impressive" Haiku smile at his comment

"So why are you here with Maggie?" Lincoln asks "We're sisters" they both say "Lincoln looks between them "I can see the resemblance, you two almost look like twins, sort of" "Our mom said that too" Haiku says, then Maggie realizes who Lincoln truly was "Lincoln Loud, as in the Lincoln Loud who went to the Sadie Hawkins dance with my sister?" Lincoln and Haiku explain to Maggie that it wasn't his intention

"Whoa that's almost cold and sweet" Maggie says, then Haiku looks at Lincoln, he notices this "What?" Haiku approaches him "Your aura is in distress and pain, you try to hide it through positive thinking, but it still lingers" Lincoln is shocked that she knows "Is it about your sisters?" Haiku asks then sees Lincoln changing his expression "Thought so!" Haiku says "Alright kid tell us whats wrong" Maggie adds, Lincoln tells them of whats been happening and why he was there

"I never knew Lucy could be so blinded and I don't mean her hair" haiku says "Your life sounds like an eternal suffering, I'd say it sounds nice but after what you've been through, so not cool!" Maggie adds, Lincoln looks away still feeling discomfort, so haiku embraces him in a hug "Haiku, what are you?" then Maggie joins in making him feel tense, but then calms down and accepts their gesture, they then release him from their hug "Feeling better?" Haiku asks as Lincoln nods in response "Good, seeing you as a sad emo may sound nice, but I don't think it matches your persona" Maggie adds "Thanks girls" Lincoln replies to them

Soon Lincoln goes back to walking around 'It's nice to have some people who are also looking out for me, wish my sisters did that more often' he thinks to himself "Hey Lincoln!" Lincoln turns to see Jordan calling him "hey Jordan what's up?" Jordan grabs his hand making him blush "Come on, you gotta try this game" as Jordan guides him through the crowds "Here it is!" Lincoln sees the game Froot Twister "Okay, but what does that have to do with me?" Lincoln asks "Because we wanna see if a boy like you can beat us girls" Lincoln sees who said that, it was Mollie, Kat, Fiona, Mandee and Jackie, he turns to a shade of red "Wha-What?" then Miguel shows up "Come on kid, it can't be that hard for you" Lincoln notices him "Miguel? At least I'm not alone at this" "Sorry kid but I had a long week with yoga and I need a break, so you're on your own here" Miguel smirks

Lincoln's pupils shrink from hearing this "I don't know if I could do this?" Lincoln backs up, but is stopped by Jordan "Please Lincoln" Jordan uses puppy dog eyes 'Dang she's so cute like this' Lincoln thinks to himself "Pretty Please!" Lincoln looks to see Kat, Fiona, Jackie and Mandee doin the same thing, seeing no way out of this "Alright I'll do it!" Lincoln follows the cheering ladies 'Puppy dog eyes, the perfect weapon for every cute girl out there or pet' Miguel says in mind

The game is set and Miguel will be spinning the game "Let's begin, who wants to go first?" Miguel asks, the girls have the same idea "Lincoln" he looks shocked hearing his name "Alright then, get on the mat kid" Lincoln gets onto the mat, Miguel throws the dice "Right foot Pineapple!" Lincoln does so, as Miguel rolls the dice again "Alright Jordan, Left foot grape" Jordan steps in front of Lincoln making them both blush "Fiona, Right foot orange" the game goes on until

Lincoln is laying on his back with the girls almost surrounding him, feeling the awkwardness he turns as bright as the apple on the mat, the girls giggle at this "Isn't this fun" "Definitely fun" "Look at the little guy" "Someone's nervous" "What's wrong Loud?" "You okay there Lincoln?" Lincoln could only respond through one thing, fainting on the spot

Soon Lincoln regains consciousness "Lincoln? Lincoln?" he opens his eyes to see Jordan looking at him with worry "Jordan?" everybody sighs in relief then Jackie pulls him into a hug "Thank goodness you're okay!" Lincoln then coughs "I'm fine Jackie, can you let me go?" Jackie does so "Sorry, Sorry!" then Mandee approaches him "We thought maybe this could help jog your mind off of… well what Jordan told us" Lincoln realizes what she meant "sorry Linc, but Dana told me what she did, and I thought maybe I could do the same only with a different method" Jordan says with an apologetic look

Lincoln sighs "it's okay Jordan, it was kinda fun and sorta helped me get through my stress in a way" the group smile and give him a group hug, which he kindly accepts, after the hug he looks to Kat "So you're not upset after what happened to you with the Girl Guru thing?" "Water under the bridge Loud, still your sisters could've helped you with all this, not leave you and McBride alone causing who knows what" Lincoln chuckles at the remark "Thanks guys" then Mollie has an idea and whispers something to Miguel who nods in agreement and goes to his bag

Lincoln looks in confusion "How about a cannon ball contest? It will help you get your mind off your stress and see if you can beat me" Mollie says, Lincoln liked the idea but realizes something "That's a pretty cool offer Mollie but I don't have any swimming trunks" then Miguel shows up "Luckily I have some right here" He hands the orange trunks to Lincoln "What? But how?" Lincoln looks at Miguel in disbelief "A yoga instructor is always prepared and I'm also a part time life guard, you never know when a kid might lose his dignity in the water" Lincoln smiles "Thanks Miguel" Lincoln heads off to change and so does Mollie

Meanwhile Jordan has an idea and whispers to the other girls who agree, then she heads off to find Dana, Becky, Carol, Whitney and Teri, soon Lincoln and Mollie are standing under the diving board "You ready for this Loud?" Mollie asks her opponent "Ready to see you admit I'm still best at cannon balling? Then yes!" Lincoln replies "We'll see" as Mollie goes first up, once she launches off the diving board she makes a big splash, but it doesn't reach Lincoln, Mollie surfaces and looks to Lincoln who claps slowly "How's that Linc?!" "Not bad, not bad" Lincoln ascends the diving board, he closes his eyes takes a deep breath and jumps into the water making a large splash that reaches some of the party goers by the pool (Luckily they were in their bathing suits), Lincoln surfaces "That's how it's done!" as Mollie looks at him with disbelief and the crowd also cheers

"Alright loud, guess you win" Mollie admits "But next time I'll beat you!" Lincoln laughs "We'll see" the two kids head back out of the pool, but Lincoln notices something that could make his nose bleed, in front of him was Jordan, Christina, Kat, Carol, Dana, Becky, Whitney, Teri, Jackie, Mandee and Fiona in their swimsuits "Hi Lincoln!" they all call to him as he just looks in awe "Bu……. Bu…… Bu" was all he could say as the girls giggle at his response "Group cannonball time!" they cheer even Mollie joins in, they head to the pool , while Jordan grabs Lincoln who still looks dumfounded, they all stand by the edge holding their hands, on Lincoln's right was Jordan and on his left was Christina "3….. 2…… 1! Cannon ball!" they all hit the water, then surface and start giggling

But soon they notice someone hasn't surfaced "Lincoln?" Carol calls out, realizing what was wrong they look around, until Jordan gets spooked when someone surfaces from under her, and she was hoisted up by Lincoln and rides on him as he yells out "Chicken fight!" the girls soon join in and have the time of their lives, it warms their hearts to see Lincoln's positivity come back, from afar Renee, Maggie, Haiku and Sam watch and smile at his returning persona

After the chicken fight Lincoln surfaces with the girls and they start laughing and chatting "Hey Lame-o!" they all turn to see "Ronnie Anne? Carlotta?" Lincoln says in shock "What are you two doing here?" Ronnie Anne fist bump with him "We were invited as well, we could've gotten here faster if Carlotta didn't have to constantly stop and check out the clothes here in town!" Ronnie Anne looks at Carlotta "What I can say? I like what I see" Carlotta replies "We saw what you and these ladies were doing" Ronnie Anne says making Lincoln blush "I didn't know you were a ladies man?" Carlotta adds "So what are you doing here Lame-o?" she asks him

Even though what she asked was supposed to make him feel down he wasn't which surprised the others, Lincoln explains to the two of them what has transpired lately "Oh wow, I didn't know you felt like that Lincoln" Ronnie Anne says "Oh you poor thing" Carlotta adds, Lincoln just smiles "It's okay though, if it wasn't for Carol and her friends running into me, I could've still be wandering town and never would've had an awesome time with such amazing ladies!" Carol blushes at his words 'Aww Lincoln!' the other girls say in their minds "Well you got me there at those words Lincoln" Ronnie Anne says, then hugs him "Thanks but I'm fine" "Think of this as an I'm sorry I kept bullying you" Lincoln returns the hug "Oh let me get in on this!" Carlotta joins in as well

The party keeps rolling as they all chat and laugh at each other's conversation "I'm gonna go get us some Soda's" Lincoln says after talking with Girl Jordan and Christina, as he gets some soda from one of the coolers he accidently touches someone's hand "Oh sorry about that didn't know you were gonna get that one" Lincoln apologizes "No worries Lou- I mean kid!" Lincoln looks towards the teenager and notices her outfit seemed familiar she was wearing a big red scarf and shades as well as a sun hat (it's not even day time!), but he recognized the white top, green scarf under the red one, the blue shorts, yellow earrings, green headband and green shoes "Beatrix Yates!" Lincoln says loudly getting the rest of the crew's attention "Shhhhh! No! No! I'm not Beatrix!" but it was too late, she realized there was no point in hiding so she takes off her disguise

The others gasp in shock "Beatrix Yates?!" "Miss smiles a lot?!" "Daughter of the well rounded family?!" "Madam Perfect?!" they all start talking, but Lincoln notices her expression "Guys stop!" they all remain silent "Can't you guys see your making her upset?" Lincoln then turns to see Beatrix have tears and runs off, Lincoln's selfless instincts kick in and he goes after her, leaving the others to realize what they just did "I say, that was a series of unfortunate events" they all look at Benny holding Mrs. Appleblossom "What?!" they both say

Lincoln looks around for Beatrix, but to no avail, suddenly he hears crying he looks through the fence and sees Beatrix sitting on a log under the moonlight crying by herself, he slowly approaches her "Beatrix?" she stops crying and turns to see Lincoln "Oh, it's just you" Beatrix looks away, Lincoln then realizes what was happening, he walks towards her and sits next to her on the log "Family problems?" Lincoln asks "Yeah" Beatrix responds, Lincoln sighs "I've been there" they both remain silent

"Let me guess you came to the party to get away from all the stress at home?" Lincoln asks her "You guessed it right" Beatrix responds "But why wear the disguise?" Lincoln looks at her in confusion, Beatrix sighs "My parents expect so much from me! Perfect grades, Soccer practice, Coding! Don't get me wrong I like helping others in need! But for once can't I just go out and enjoy things like a normal teenager would do!" Beatrix finishes debating, Lincoln then understands why she wore the disguise "So you're wearing that disguise so that no one will recognize you?" Beatrix nods in response "If someone recognizes who I am, miss perfect a lot, then my parents will find out and I'll be in a whole lot of trouble!" Lincoln looks at her with concern

"I came to this party to get away from the stress my family is throwing at me" Beatrix looks at Lincoln with shock, Lincoln then explains his problems, then Beatrix realizes, they're both on the same sinking boat sort of "Guess we're both stressful huh?" Beatrix says "I guess" Lincoln then looks at Beatrix and notices sees that she's starting to have tears again, he scooches closer and rubs her back, he realizes he's also stroking her hair 'wow her hair is really smooth and soft' , soon she calms down and hugs Lincoln "Thank you for understanding" Lincoln returns the hug "No problem", soon they break the hug "If I should be honest, I kinda love how long and smooth you hair is, it suits you" Lincoln looks away and blushes, Beatrix is touched by his honest words, she brings her face near him and kisses his cheek, Lincoln jolts from the feeling and looks at her smiling "Thanks for the comment, I like your white hair too" Lincoln just blushes

Suddenly they hear crying, they both turn around to see Lincoln's circle of friends with some tears "That was beautiful" Carol says, Lincoln helps Beatrix stand and they walk towards the group "We're sorry for overreacting earlier" says Dana "We didn't know you felt this way" Becky says "Just like Lincoln, you may show a winning smile, but deep down you are tainted by the shadow of your parents" Haiku laments "If you want some time for yourself, we might help with that" Whitney adds "But for now, let's all enjoy the party" Jordan announces as everybody else agrees "Come on you two!" Christina motions to them, Lincoln and Beatrix follow them with smiles on their faces, knowing that they have friends who care for them.
