Luna and Luan walked down the street and spotted the elementary school. Luna looked at her younger sister and slightly smiled, "Okay, the bell's going to be ringing any minute. I'm going to take Lola, Lana and Lucy and take them out to get some ice cream. You and Lincoln can take the scenic route home and talk to him…and this way I can get some sleep at night again,"
"Heh…sorry Luna,"
"Ah, don't sweat it, sis. I know what you're going through. Remember how many times I've kept you up while I was fighting over rather or not I should tell Sam?" Luan nodded and Luna smirked, "So this is what I get…just talk to Lincoln…if he doesn't feel the same, then at least you can say you tried," the sound of the bell ringing filled the air and Luna stepped away from Luan, "I'll get the twins and Lucy, you wait for Lincoln." Luan nodded as she watched her older sister walk away.
Luan watched as students walked out of the building before she spotted her brother walking with his best friend Clyde McBride. Taking a deep breath, she walked up to the two boys, "Hey Linc," the two looked up and Lincoln arched a brow at his sister, "Listen, I have a birthday party this weekend and I need my assistant to help me with some of my skits,"
"Um…uh…I'd love to, Luan, but me and Clyde were just about to head to the a-"
"Don't worry about it, Lincoln," the two siblings looked at the African-American boy and Clyde began walking past them, "We'll hang out another day. You should help Luan with her skits," the two watched as Clyde walked down the street and turned the corner.
Luan looked at her brother and smiled, "Okay Linc, let's go," she grabbed him by the arm and began leading him away.
The two walked down the street and Lincoln looked at his older sister in confusion, "Um…Luan, this isn't the way home…what's wrong?" Luan frowned and looked down, "Are you okay? Don't we have a birthday party to prepare for or-"
"There is no party, Lincoln…I needed to talk to you alone," Lincoln arched a brow and Luan sighed, "Linc…do you remember when I came home from the Chuckle Bucket and I was covered in rotten tomatoes?" Lincoln nodded and Luan took a deep breath, "And when you agreed to not tell the others about it after you helped me?"
"Uh…I didn't tell anyone, I swear,"
"I know, Linc, but that's not what I'm talking about," Lincoln swallowed hard as Luan rubbed her arm, "I was talking about after making that promise…what happened afterwards,"
"You mean the k-" Luan quickly covered his mouth and glared daggers at him. Lincoln moved her hand away and sighed, "Luan…what are you trying to say?"
"Linc…after that…I've been feeling strange and…I told Luna about it," Lincoln's eyes widened and Luan frowned, "I know, I feel like a hypocrite. I told you not to tell anyone about that and I told Luna…but we share a room and I was keeping her up during the night and…she talked to me and I asked her a few questions and then I told her about the Chuckle Bucket and then the kiss…I told her something else and…she said something that made sense to me,"
"And…and what was that?" Luan frowned and looked down, "Luan, you're not making any sense right now. What was it that Luna told you that made sense? And where is this conversation going exactly?"
Luna took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "Lincoln, no matter what is said, you need to promise me that you won't tell anyone…I really don't want to get in trouble,"
"Luan…I wouldn't do anything that'll that you in trouble."
Luan slowly nodded, "Okay…I…I told her that…that I have strong feelings for you, Linc," Lincoln's eyes widened and Luan bit her lower lip hard enough to draw a small amount of blood, "I just…I had to tell you…Luna said it was eating away at me…I just…I needed to tell you before I went insane and mom and dad decided to send me away and-"
"Luan," Lincoln grabbed her by the arms and Luan stared at him with wide eyes, "Listen…I…I…I talked to Charles that night,"
"Charles? You talked to our dog?"
"Yeah…only because I couldn't go to the others, and if I went to you…well…I…I have strong feelings for you too," Luan's eyes widened and Lincoln rubbed the back of his head, "I…I actually had a conversation with Charles when I talked to him and I think I was going insane…I thought he was talking back and…well…yeah, I…I love you, Luan,"
Luan's eyes widened, "So…um…now that we got that out of the way…what next?"
"Well…we'll talk more later…right now we better get home before someone questions where we are and we'll talk later tonight after everyone goes to bed," Lincoln nodded and the two of them walked down the street in silence.
Okay, I'm going to cut this one here for a couple of reasons. As always enjoy everyone and please let me know what you all think.
