This chapter takes place during the summer before Ronnie Anne and Bobby moved. Enjoy.

It was a breezy summer night as vanzilla was traveling through the neighborhood of Royal Woods. Ronnie Anne and Lincoln were sitting in the back while Lori was driving with Bobby riding shotgun. Lori was wearing her light blue blouse and dark blue skirt while Bobby wore a white dress shirt and black dress pants. Lincoln was wearing his orange long sleeve polo shirt and khakis while Ronnie Anne wore a light purple blouse with a dark purple skirt. Luna and Sam were sitting in the seats behind the drivers. Luna was wearing a purple dress shirt and a black vest with a black skirt while Sam wore a light blue denim dress. Both Lincoln and Ronnie Anne had their arms crossed with sore looks on their faces.

"So, Lame-o. Tell me how we got wrapped up in a triple date." Ronnie Anne demanded.

"Well…"


Lincoln was sitting in the living room playing the latest Terminal Kombatants game. Lori was looking down from the stairs watching him with a conniving smirk on her face.

"Time to put my plan into action." Lori said as she walked down the step and approached him. "Hey, twerp. Mind if I play you in few rounds?"

"Trust me, Lori. You won't stand a chance against me. I'm an absolute pro at this." Lincoln gloated.

"We'll see about that." Lori said as she sat next to him, picked up the controller and started playing.

"So how's everything going with Ronnie Anne?" Lori asked as she was attacking Lincoln's character.

"Pretty well." Lincoln answered.

"Have you gone on any romantic dates?" Lori asked.

"Not really. We don't want to do all that mushy romantic junk. Oh, I got you this time." Lincoln said as he did a simple combo on Lori's characters.

"You guys should go on some dates. I'm sure she'd love it. You're not blocking this." Lori said as she countered Lincoln's attack.

"I'm pretty sure she doesn't- eat my flame fists." Lincoln shouted.

They played three matches with Lincoln winning all of them.

"Wow, you really are good at this game." Lori complimented.

"Yep, I'm the greatest there is!" Lincoln gloated while doing his victory butt shake.

"Okay then, champ. Care for a little wager?" Lori intrigued.

"What did you have in mind?" He inquired.

"A competition. If I win three perfect games against you, you and Ronnie Anne have to go on a double date with me and Bobby." She explained.

"Okay. And what do I get if I win?" He asked.

"I'll buy you that Ace Savvy collector's edition comic." She stated.

"No way! There's only twelve of that issue. You're on. This'll be piece of cake." He proclaimed.

"We'll see about that." She said with a devilish grin.

Twelve minutes had passed and Lori had won two perfect games against Lincoln.

"How is this possible? I was wiping the floor with you a minute ago!" Lincoln pointed out.

"Guess I'm just a fast learner." Lori gloated.

"I'm not gonna lose this time." He stated.

A few more minutes passed and Lincoln's character was lying on the floor with his head blasted off. Lincoln sat in shock of his defeat

"Noooooooo! How could lose?" Lincoln whined as Lori looked at him with a cocky smirk.

"Make sure to wear something nice." Lori put the controller down and walked away from the scene with her head held high.


"And that's about it." Lincoln finished explaining.

"Wow, you got hustled." Ronnie Anne stated.

"I know." Lincoln looked down in defeat.

"But that doesn't explain why Luna and Sam are joining us." Ronnie Anne pointed out.

"We lost a bet too." Sam said in shame.

"How could you not guess Mick Swaggers favorite dish is Yorkshire pudding?" Luna said with an irritated look on her face.

"I panicked, okay! Your sister knows how to make someone second guess themselves." Sam claimed.

"I learned a few tricks from Lynn." Lori said with a proud smirk. "I would've gotten Luan and Maggie to agree to come but I didn't want to hear her constant jokes all night."

"Don't worry too much guys. I'm sure this'll be fun." Bobby said looking back at the four and smiling.

"Doubtful." The two couples in the back disagreed.

"Also, why do I need to wear a dress?" Ronnie Anne asked.

"Because it's your first fancy date with your boyfriend." Bobby explained.

"What do you mean fancy? We're just going to Jeán-Juan's." Ronnie Anne pointed out.

"Well, it's the fanciest place we could afford." Bobby said, defensively.

"Oi." Luna groaned.


The group arrived at Jeán-Juan's French-Mex buffet. They got out of the van and made their way inside. They reached the front desk where a waiter was there to assist them.

"Bonjour, welcome to Jeán-Juan's. How may I help you?" The waiter asked.

"We would like a table for six, garçon." Lori said.

"Okay then. Right this way." The waiter lead them to a booth that was able to fit all six of them. Lori and Bobby sat across from each other. Luna and Sam sat on Bobby's side while Lincoln and Ronnie Anne sat on Lori's side.

"Can I start everyone off with drinks?" The waiter asked.

"Just water will be fine." Lori said.

"But I wanted a milkshake." Lincoln whined.

"Well you're getting water." Lori declared as Lincoln crossed his arms.

"Magnifique. I'll be back with your waters." The waiter said before leaving. Everyone sat in awkward silence.

"Soooo… how are things with everyone?" Lori asked, trying to break the ice.

"Pretty good, pretty good." Lincoln answered.

"It'd be better if we weren't on this date." Ronnie Anne mutter ended her breath.

"What was that, Ronnie Anne?" Lori inquired.

"Uh… I said it'd better if we had some shakes. Yeah, that's it." Ronnie Anne lied.

"Well, we can't really afford getting dinner and milkshakes, nie-nie" Bobby spoke up, earning a small chuckle from Luna.

"Aw, that's such a cute nickname." Sam complemented, causing Ronnie Anne to face palm.

"I told you not to call me that in public." Ronnie Anne said with frustrated blush on her face.

"Why not? Lincoln's sisters call him Linky every now and then." Bobby pointed out.

"That's 'cause he doesn't have a sense of shame." Ronnie Anne argued.

"I can vouch for that." Lori spoke up.

"Ditto." Luna added.

"Hey, I have some sense of shame." Lincoln defended.

"Not really. You read your comic books in your underwear out in the open when we're all in the living room." Lori said.

"Oh wow, really?" Ronnie Anne asked Lincoln with a raised brow causing Lincoln to cup his face in his palms.

"I didn't want Ronnie Anne to know that." Lincoln said in frustration.

"Oh come on, little bro. She would've found out about that sooner or later." Luna claimed.

"I'd rather it be later." Lincoln said.

"Huh, I guess I was wrong about your sense of shame." Ronnie Anne pointed out.

The waiter returned with their waters. The group decided to go get their food from the buffet line. They all returned to the table with the plates full of entrees. Everyone was about to start eating their food until Bobby decided to speak up.

"You shouldn't feel too bad about the underwear thing, Linc. If it makes you feel any better Bobby still plays with action figures in his underwear." Ronnie Anne said, earning a small chortle from Lincoln.

"Hey you leave Action Sal out of this. You still like to play dress up and pretend you're that Mariner Comet character." Bobby defended causing Ronnie Anne to have a look of embarrassment.

"You actually like that series? That's got to be the girliest show out there." Lincoln mocked.

"I just watch it for the plot." Ronnie Anne argued with a blush on her face.

"And the outfits. You had Mom buy you all the costumes when you were younger. You even still play action figures with me from time to time." Bobby revealed.

"Oh geez." Ronnie Anne held her face in embarrassment.

"Even now, you still sing the theme song everytime it comes on." Bobby said.

"Bobby." Ronnie Anne shouted.

"Wait, Ronnie Anne sings?" Lori asked.

"Yeah. She loves singing. Whenever we visit our grandparents, our abuelita would get her to sing her favorite song for her." Bobby explained.

"And what's her favorite song?" Sam asked.

"Bobby, don't you dare." Ronnie Anne warned, pointing a finger at him.

"Oh Girl by Boys will be Boys." Bobby answered.

"Uuuggghhh." Ronnie Anne groaned.

"Ahhh, that's my favorite song ever." Lori screamed with excitement.

"I didn't peg you for the boy bands type, Ron way." Luna expressed.

"Wait. You told me your favorite song was Flint Westwood!" Sam pointed out.

"No, it's definitely Oh Girl. I remember catching her singing it to a picture of Lincoln awhile ago." Bobby said, earning laughs from everyone except Lincoln, who sat there with a blush on his face.

"Oh my goodness." Ronnie Anne said as red as a tomato.

"That's almost as bad as when Lincoln taped that picture of Christina on to Lucy's Edwin statue and made out with it." Lori mocked earning more laughs from everyone except Lincoln and Ronnie Anne.

"Lori." Lincoln shouted.

"Or more recently when he tried practicing spitting his game with a picture of Ronnie Anne on his phone. Hahaha." Luna added.

Lincoln and Ronnie Anne sat there with irritated looks on their faces. Lincoln then started to formulate a plan with a devilish grin on his face. He leaned over to Ronnie Anne and whispered into her ear.

"I think it's time we returned the favor. Follow my lead." Lincoln whispered causing Ronnie Anne to smile as devilishly as he did.

"You know that's really funny and all but you guys remember when Lori and Bobby went on their first date, and at the end when Bobby walked her to the front porch and she was about to kiss him, she tooted?" Lincoln said with a smirk causing Lori and Bobby to have full blushes on their faces.

"No way. That happened!?" Sam inquired while holding back a laugh.

"Y-yeah, she was redder than Mick Swagger's favorite guitar. Like right now." Luna choked back a laugh while pointing at Lori.

"That wasn't me. It was my shoes." Lori said in frustration.

"Sure it was, Sis." Luna said, sarcastically.

"Oh that's nothing. Remember when Bobby wanted to impress Lori at the beach by showing off his surfing skills and he ended up get wiped out by a wave and lost his trunks?" Ronnie Anne asked getting more laughs from Luna and Sam.

"That wasn't funny!" Bobby argued.

"It was to the life guards. They couldn't stop laughing at you. I thought they were gonna pee themselves." Ronnie Anne said while Luna and Sam continued laughing.

Lori looked at Lincoln and Ronnie Anne and then to Luna with an annoyed look before she grew a smirk on her face.

"You know what was really funny, Luna?" Lori asked.

"W-what?" Luna stopped laughing and took note of Lori's smirk.

"That time you performed your first gig." Lori said.

"No." Luna said in horror.

"What happened at her first gig?" Sam asked.

"You better not, dude." Luna said with an angered look on her face.

"Nothing really. It's just when she went up to perform, she went to take her guitar out of the case on the floor, she faced away from the crowd bent over." Lori explained.

"That doesn't sound too bad." Sam said.

"She was wearing a skirt." Lori pointed out earning chuckles from Lincoln and Ronnie Anne.

"Oh." Sam replied.

"Literally gave the audience more of a show than they were expecting." Lori joked.

"Wow. That must of been so embarrassing." Sam said.

"It very much was. That's why I don't bring it up." Luna pointed out in a frustrated tone.

"Well I thought it would be a funny story for your girlfriend to know." Lori said with smug grin.

Lori, Bobby, Lincoln, Ronnie Anne and Luna looked at each other with hard looks on their faces. Sam sat by watching the scene while holding herself back from laughing to hard.

"Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha." Sam let out a laugh while holding her sides causing everyone to join in. "You guys are so funny."

"Heh heh, Yeah. I can't believe you like that Mariner Comet show. You always loved wrestling and skateboarding, I didn't think that would be one of your interests." Lincoln said to Ronnie Anne.

"I grew up watching it since I was a baby so I couldn't let it go." Ronnie Anne explained.

"I get that. I still have my favorite plush toy, bun-bun, from when I was a baby." Lincoln revealed.

"Aww, that's so cute you guys still have something like that. I still watch Mariner Comet whenever it comes on." Sam said.

"Really? You're a Mariner Comet fan too?" Ronnie Anne said in surprise.

"Yep. Been my whole life. I still have my old costume from when I was a kid." Sam divulged.

"I thought I was the only person in Royal Woods who liked that show. I was too embarrassed to tell anyone because I knew they would make fun of me for it." Ronnie Anne confessed.

"Same. I don't really talk about it much since so many people make fun of it." Sam said.

"You two shouldn't worry too much about what people think. As long as you dudes enjoy it, everyone else's opinion is bogus." Luna explained.

"She's right." Ronnie Anne agreed.

"Yeah. I should know this by now considering I'm dating someone like you." Sam teased.

"And what's that supposed to mean?" Luna asked with a smirk.

"Just that I have a wise girlfriend." Sam said with a warm smile.

"And the most rockin one there is." Luna added.

"Of course." Sam said before planting a kiss on Luna's cheek.

"Aww." Lori, Bobby and Lincoln said simultaneously while Ronnie Anne looked on with a shy smile. Lincoln took notice of this a decided to tease her.

"Admit it. You thought that was cute just now." Lincoln teased.

"Shut up." Ronnie Anne mumbled while trying to hide her blushing face.

"Have you guys come up with any nicknames for each other?" Lori asked.

"Nope. We don't want to be that overly clingy couple." Luna said.

"Aw but it's fun to give each other nicknames. Isn't that right boo-boo bear?" Lori said while locking her hands with Bobby's.

"You got it, babe." Bobby answered earning disgusted looks from Lincoln and Ronnie Anne.

"Blech." Ronnie Anne gestured.

"I don't know why you're acting disgusted. I bet you do all sorts of lovey dovey stuff with Lincoln." Lori said with a grin.

"It sounds like your head over heels for little bro, considering you were singing to a picture of him. I bet you two've had major make out sessions too." Luna said.

"We've only had one… dang it." Ronnie Anne face palmed as Lincoln looked on in shock.

"Ahhhhhh." Lori and Luna screamed together causing everyone in the restaurant to cover their ears.

"We are never gonna hear the end of this, are we?" Ronnie Anne groaned.

"Not at all." Lori reassured.

"Oi." Ronnie Anne bemoaned as Bobby looked around the restaurant.

"I say we start to head out. We might be getting on other people's nerves right now." Bobby said causing everyone to look around to see irritated expressions on people's faces.

"You're right. I know a good place we can hang out at." Luna suggested.

"Alright, let's go then." Bobby agreed as everyone got out of the booth and made their way towards the exit.

.

.

.

They returned to the booth a few seconds later with embarrassed looks on their faces..

"We should definitely eat our food first." Bobby said.

"Right." Everyone agreed.


They pulled up to the high school football field and decided to sit in the bleachers and continue the conversations they were having.

"Hey Bobby? Can I ask you something?" Sam inquired.

"Shoot." Bobby replied.

"How come you're so okay with everything going on with your sister's relationship? Most guys I know would get angry about their sisters boyfriends, especially the makeout sessions." Sam pointed out.

"Well it's mainly because I trust Lincoln. I thought he was a jerk at first because he said mean things about Ronnie Anne and made her cry but my attitude changed when I saw that he did care for her." Bobby explained.

"That and I can twist him into a pretzel if he tries to act like a major dirt bag to me." Ronnie Anne added.

"Which is why I don't act like a jerk to her." Lincoln affirmed.

"Wait. Why did you act like a jerk to her?" Sam asked.

"She was kind of bullying me for a bit and I insulted her in front of the whole cafeteria. Then I realized that was her way of showing that she liked me, especially since she only did it to me." Lincoln rubbed the back of his head.

"Oh." Sam responded.

"I'm not the best at showing how I feel about people." Ronnie Anne admitted.

"You definitely showed it to that picture." Bobby pointed out.

"Shut up." Ronnie Anne growled.

"Have you ever sung to him for real?" Luna asked.

"No and I'm not going to." Ronnie Anne asserted.

"Aw come on. If you literally have the ability to sing you should do it for your special one." Lori claimed.

"Yeah, I sing to Sam all the time." Luna stated.

"And it's so beautiful, she makes me swoon." Sam cuddled up to Luna's side.

"Always gotta make you smile, love." Luna said in her british accent while hold Sam's chin.

"That's great for you guys but I'm not singing." Ronnie Anne affirmed.

"You don't have to if you don't want to, Rons. I know you love me." Lincoln said while giving her a peck on the cheek.

"H-hey, we said no mushy stuff in public." Ronnie Anne pushed him away while trying to hide her smile.

"Well it's not like they don't know that we make out now." Lincoln looked at Ronnie Anne with a fake unimpressed expression.

"Heh heh, If I kissed you right now, would that make you forgive me?" Ronnie Anne pleaded.

"Maaaybe." Lincoln crossed his arms and smiled.

"You two are so cute." Sam complemented.

"I told you, dude. They're the cutest couple I've seen." Luna stated.

"Hey." Bobby and Lori challenged.

"We're literally right he… *sigh* nevermind. So Lincoln how about you show Ronnie Anne how you spit your game to her." Lori suggested.

"Oh I really wanna see you try that with me." Ronnie Anne said with small enthusiasm.

"Uh… um… okay. Ahem." Lincoln gave Ronnie Anne a cocky smile. "So Ronnie Anne, what's a beautiful girl like you doing on this lovely day?" He spoke a slightly deeper and seductive tone.

Everyone sat in silence for a few seconds.

"Aaaahhh ha ha ha ha." Everyone, excluding Ronnie Anne, laughed at Lincoln, who sat there unimpressed by their actions.

"Oh man, Th-th-that was rich." Luna laughed.

"I'm pretty sure Ronnie Anne would've slugged you if you weren't dating her." Bobby stated.

"Y-yeah I would've, heh heh." Ronnie Anne turned away, as everyone kept laughing, to fan herself with her hand. "Woo, can't let them know that worked on me." She thought to herself.

"Aww man. I told you guys this was gonna be fun." Bobby proclaimed.

"Yeah. I was dreading this a first but I gotta say this was pretty rockin'." Luna admitted.

"I wouldn't be mad if we did this again sometime." Lincoln confessed.

"Yeah." Ronnie Anne agreed.

"I knew you guys would have fun.' Lori sat back and looked up at the stars as did everyone else. "*Sigh* This is literally a perfect end to a perfect night. There's nothing that could ruin this." Lori declared.

A man in a blue outfit shined a flashlight on them and started to approach.

"Hey you kids." The man yelled.

"It's the fuzz! Cheese it, dudes." Luna shouted as everyone got up and ran back to vanzilla.

"Well there was almost nothing." Lori corrected as she ran.

The man stood there with a confused look as he watched them run off.

"I just wanted to know if they knew how to get to Flip's from here."


AN: I had a bit of a struggle with this one. I mainly didn't know if I wanted to add a problem to be solved or have some type of drama. I settled on just making it a wholesome chapter with everyone just having simple conversations. I just wanted the have the characters to have fun hanging out. If you thought I was gonna or am going to have Ronnie Anne sing, I'm sorry to disappoint. I don't really like the idea writing songs in fiction. It just kinda takes you out of it because if you don't know the song you have to imagine a beat to it and if I use a well known song, it distracts you from the story. Tell me what you think.
