Logan just watched and hugged his brother and sisters (Sans Lori) crying and hugging him, they stayed like that for a good few minutes before calming down and finally letting go, the kids stood up and looked at their Big Brother with red eyes and concerned faces then their father said to Logan...
Lynn Sr: (Saddened) Son, are you doing alright?
Logan just grinned, confused from his father's question but know all too well what he meant.
Logan: (Grinning) Yeah, why wouldn't I be?
Luan: (Hoarse) It's just from your song, you seemed like you went through a lot.
Luna: (Wiping tears away) Is that really how you feel, Big Bro?
Logan: (Smiling) Guys, It's alright I assure you I'm fine.
Rita: (Concerned) Well, Okay then sweetie, Just know that we're here for you if you need it.
Lynn Jr: Yeah, you don't have to face your problems alone.
Logan: I know, I appreciate it, Sis.
Luna: By the way, sick song Bro did you write that yourself?
Lucy: Yeah, your choice of words was very captivating.
Leni: It was a beautiful song I loved it, and also your singing voice was magnificent
Lincoln: Yeah, I'm with Leni that song was outstanding.
Lisa: I can also concur.
Lily: *Happy Babbling Noises*
Logan: Thanks guys, now how's about we get going then, Who's excited to hang out with their Big Brother!
The Loud kids (Sans Lori) cheered on, excited for the day of hanging out with their Big Brother.
Timeskip
All the Loud children exited the house, ready to spend the day with Logan, even Lori, though it took some amount of arguing and persuading to get Lori to join them.
Rita: Bye Kids! Logan, be sure to bring them back before 5 okay, sweetie.
Logan: Sure thing, Mom!
As they got outside, Lana saw Logan's car and was immediately awestruck by it before saying...
Lana: (Amazed) Guys! Look!
The Loud children looked at the direction Lana was pointing at and was also amazed at the car (Sans Logan)
Lincoln: *Gasp* Whose car is that?!
Logan: Oh, That's mine.
Lola: Really?!
Luna: Sweet wheels, Bro.
Logan: Thanks, and also some of you can ride with me while the rest with Lori, seeing as how we're the only ones who can drive.
They nod in agreement.
Logan: So who's riding with me?
The Loud children huddled up and discussed amongst themselves who's riding with Logan.
Lincoln: So who's it gonna be?
Leni: OH! Me! I want to ride with Big brother!
Lola: Me too! It's only proper for a princess such as myself to ride in a luxurious vehicle.
Lucy: I wish to join Logan as well, I want to know more about him.
Luna: Okay, so that's three, only one space left, how's about we draw straws for the last seat.
They all found the proposition fair and after drawing straws, Lincoln won and got the last seat with Logan while the other groaned in annoyance (Sans Lori).
Logan: Okay, with that being settled, let's get going then.
Lincoln: Oh yeah. Logan, can I ask a question?
Logan: Sure bud, ask away.
Lincoln: How did you buy this car and your house?
Logan thought about it for a second before saying...
Logan: Well, I happen to win the money from a scratch ticket and got millions, so I guess that answers your questions.
Luan: Really?!
They, fortunately, believed Logan's lie and just shrugged off the fact that their Eldest brother was rich.
Lisa: Fascinating, Older sibling could I ask for your assistance in funding my research seeing as how I'm lacking in finances.
Logan: Sure, as long as what you're doing is safe.
Lisa just smiled in a nervous manner.
Lana: Can you also let me see your car some time to see its parts?
Logan: Of course.
Lola then yelled...
Lola: (Imapatiant) Less chatting and more moving!
The Loud siblings agreed with Lola as she, Lucy, Lincoln, and Leni went inside their brother's car with Leni riding shotgun and the other sisters rode with Lori in Vanzilla with defeated looks.
They began heading to the mall inside Logan's car and Vanzilla, meanwhile with Lori.
Lori's Mind: *Groans* While we were having trouble with money, he had millions with him. Talk about lucky.
Luna: Hey dudes, you guys have any idea what happened to Logan when he left?
Luan: Dunno, but it seemed like he had a hard time when he was gone, hopefully, not that troubling for him.
Lana: Aw, C'mon this is Logan we're talking about I'm sure he handled himself well.
Lisa: True, Judging by his poise and characteristics he showed no signs of complexity when he first reached the household, neither did he when he was chanting that song of his.
Lili: Poo-poo!
Lynn: Yeah! And from the looks of it, he has the guns to prove it. Maybe we can have a workout session together sometime.
Lori: I literally don't care what happened to him.
Luna: Aw C'mon bro-dette, Isn't it time you forgive Logan and just move on.
Lori: Easy for you to say, You weren't the one who spent her time trying to keep this family together when he left!
Luan: Calm down Lori, Luna has a point you can't just stay mad at him forever you gotta forgive him at some point.
Lynn: Yeah, he suffered enough as it is.
Lisa: I agree with my older siblings, If you remain as you are, you will receive wrinkle from the strain you are incurring to yourself, I advise that you follow their examples and simply pardon Logan.
Lana: Yeah, be happy he came back at all who knows what could've happened to him out there.
Lori: I don't care what you guys think, Where was he when we needed him, Huh? Especially you three.
Lori pointed at Lisa, Lana, and Lily.
Lori: He wasn't even there when you guys were born and you can accept him to come back without even saying goodbye!
Lisa: True, I can acknowledge the fact that our Eldest sibling was absent during our birth but I hadn't conceded on his reason for simply abandoning us, he surely had a rationale excuse for his absence.
Lana: I agree with Lisa, Even if I didn't understand half of what she said I can tell that Logan must have his reasons for not being here before, of all people, understand that Lori since you spent time with him the most out of all of us.
Lori: Just Be QUIET! Or so help me I will literally turn this car around!
Her sibling then gave up and spent the rest of the ride in silence.
Meanwhile with Logan.
Lucy: So, Logan. I've been meaning to ask you.
Logan: What is it, little sis.
Logan ruffled Lucy's hair, and she didn't mind it one bit.
Lucy: Where did you get that necklace from.
Logan's face dropped from Lucy's question about the necklace Hector gave him on his deathbed, reminding him of how he lost a friend.
Lucy noticed this and seemed upset about it.
Lucy: I'm sorry, you don't need to answer if it makes you uncomfortable.
Logan: No, it's fine, *Sighs* I got it from a friend once.
Leni: What happened to him?
Logan thought about it for a second before saying...
Logan: He's gone.
Even with Leni's ditzy personality, she understood what he meant.
Leni: (Shocked) I-I'm sorry, Big brother for saying that I just-
Logan cut her off.
Logan: Don't worry Leni, I'm fine it's just he was someone very important to me years ago.
Lincoln: Who was he?
Logan: *Sigh* His name is Hector, and he was someone I looked up to like a father figure. He helped back then, and we spent most of our time together until one day (Pauses)... He suddenly collapsed; we went to the hospital and were told he was dying.
Logan: He took it really well, but I didn't, I was upset that when I left you guys, I was also about to lose a friend but he told me that "Don't be sad when times are hard, but make the most of what you still have" and I accepted what was happening to him after that.
Logan felt uneasy while his sibling looked at him with concern, even Lola, He reassured them he was fine and kept going.
Logan: While he was on death's door, he gave this necklace to remind me I will always carry a part of him wherever I go, and that's the story of where I got this necklace from.
Lucy: (Upset) I'm sorry for your loss, Logan.
Lola: Yeah, we're sorry if we ever sounded overbearing and whatnot.
Lincoln: Hector must've been a good man.
Logan: Yeah... He was.
After Logan's story, the rest of his siblings stayed silent, feeling uncomfortable to say anything else after hearing what happened to Logan's friend, they spent the rest of the journey in silence.
Timeskip
The Loud children arrive at their destination, The Royal Woods Mall. They all got out of their respective vehicles and waited for Logan.
Logan: Well, we're here.
Logan's Mind: Can't believe this place is still standing after all these years.
Lincoln: Logan, are you going to be okay?
Logan: Don't worry little bro, I'll be fine.
Lincoln simply nodded and joined the rest of his siblings.
Logan: Okay, Everyone I brought you guys here today so I can buy you all your birthday presents.
Leni: (Confused) But it's none of our birthdays today, Big Brother.
Luan: Leni's right.
Logan: Oh, I know, I just thought I'd buy you all late birthday gifts to make up for me not being there for you guys.
Luna: Logan Dude, You didn't have to do that we know you had your reasons for it.
Logan: But I want to Sis, I'll let you guys get anything you want in the mall but just 1, I don't want any of you to be greedy; it doesn't matter how expensive the thing you want is, Just remember I can afford it since I'm a millionaire.
Lori: (Annoyed) We Get It! Stop Showing Off Already!
Lana: Lori c'mon, just let bygones be bygones, Logan is going to buy you anything you want, so cheer up a bit will ya.
Logan: It's okay, I understand where she's coming from.
Lori turned her back and just stayed silent.
Lincoln: Bro? Can we really have anything we want?
Logan: Yup! So go crazy and don't worry about the price, It's on me.
The Loud children cheered (Even Lori inside) about how their Eldest brother was going to buy them any expensive thing they want even though they can only get 1 it was only fair.
Logan with his sisters and brother went inside the mall.
Logan: So find what you want, I'll wait for you to finish looking.
They immediately scattered and raced to look for the thing they want but can't afford but since their Eldest brother is here they can finally get the things they really wanted, except Lori who stayed behind and Logan noticed this.
Logan: So aren't you gonna get something you want?
Lori wanted to stay and remain angry but she couldn't help herself, she was human! Who wouldn't want a free expensive item for free, so she gave in, but not before making a tantrum?
Lori: *Groans* Just you wait! I'm gonna find the most expensive thing in the mall and make you broke!
Logan: (Smirks) Sure I don't mind, so go crazy.
Lori left defeated, leaving a smirking brother behind whilst she searched for the most expensive item she can find.
Logan sat on a bench in the mall and waited for his sisters and brother to come back and bring him to buy them their gifts.
The first to show up was Lola.
Lola: (Cheerful) Logan! Follow me! I found the perfect present that you can get for me.
Lola grabbed his hand and pulled him to their destination.
Logan: Okay, okay, slow down, and what's up with that nickname.
Lola: Sorry, and I just think it's cute.
Logan just shrugged it off before letting himself get dragged by a six-year-old. Lola brought him to a famous boutique store and made him buy her a Silk Floral Outfit for girls her size lined with 100% Brazilian wandering spider silk, complete with precious jewels embedded in between.
Which she found the most beautiful dress she ever saw but she couldn't afford it since it was too pricey but with her Brother buying her any expensive gift she wants she finally got the dress she's been wanting for a long time, she went to change into the dress and showed it off to her Big brother with him applauding and admiring her.
Lola: Thank You! Thank You! I appreciate your Applause.
Logan: (Chuckles) You look beautiful, Lola.
Lola: Thank you, Big Brother Logan!
Lola thanked her brother while hugging his knees but was cut short with Luna grabbing Logan and bringing him to a Music store.
Where she showed him what she wanted, it was a Double-neck Electric Guitar signed by her favorite artist "Mick Swagger", with a free Amp to go with it, he bought it and Luna hugged her brother and thanked him repeatedly now she can rock even better than ever because of her Big Brother. She strummed and tuned the instrument, admiring the craftsmanship of it.
Luna: Thanks for this Logan Bro, This kinda reminds me of when we were playing music back then.
Logan: (Saddened) Yeah, I'm sorry for not being here when you became a professional musician Luna, but always remember that I'm proud of what you become.
They Hugged while shedding a few tears before they broke apart.
Then Lana came and grabbed Logan and led him to an Auto Body Store.
Where she asked him to buy her a set of Titanium alloy toolset, coated in aluminum, with rubberized grips and a high-powered drill to come with it, making them impossible to scratch and almost unbreakable which price's reached thousands but Logan couldn't care less, with this she can work more efficiently thanks to Logan and what better ride to test it on than her brother's sweet rides.
Lana: Oh Yeah! Thanks, Logan Bro, Hey! Can I test them out with your rides maybe I can make them better with the tools you just got me.
Logan: (Chuckles) Sure, just as long as you break nothing.
Lynn showed up and dragged Logan to a sports center.
She led him to a stand with an autographed football by a famous player for the Dallaway Cowboys which was signed by "Tom Brady", She was excited when Logan bought It for her since her budget is low but with her rich Older Brother around she got the present she wanted and she couldn't be any happier as she tossed and played catch with her Big Brother for a bit.
Lynn: Go Long!
Lynn threw it and Logan caught it easily as he threw it back and forth and back again.
Logan: Nice form Sis.
Lynn: Thanks! I've been working out.
Logan: I can see that.
They laughed together a bit before the next sister came, which was Lisa.
Lisa came and tugged on the rim of her Eldest sibling's attire, guiding him to a Local Science Store.
Where she requested him to purchase a brand new set of Equipment for her research and experiments for her previous equipment hath been blemished and defected, though it was rather exorbitant she admired his consent on the purchase of her desired item of requirement, she discovered comfort from her Eldest sibling of his acquisition to her.
Lisa: I appreciate your offer Eldest sibling, Of allowing us to get any extortionate item of value to us.
Logan: No problem Lis, (Ruffles her hair) Just do nothing too dangerous, Okay.
Lisa: I'll attempt to do so. However, I cannot completely assure you of that potential outcome from ever happening.
Lucy popped up and asked Logan to come with her to a funeral shop.
Lucy: Logan Eldest Brother, this is what I desire the most.
Where she asked him to buy her a wooden casket that was once used during the black plague, remodeled after a few experienced artisans worked on it whose price reached an unbelievable amount, but for Logan, it was just a dump change.
Logan: Are you certain?
Lucy: Positive.
Logan: Well, I respect your decision, Little Sis.
Lucy nodded, and she admired the craftsmanship of it and also her brother for buying it for her, she tested it out for a few minutes and though Logan was creeped out by it he knew better than to invade in her privacy and respected her choices.
The next sibling to look for Logan was Lincoln, the other brother in the family, He brought him to a Gaming store.
Lincoln: Logan Bro! This is what I want.
And showed him what he wanted it was the newest PlayStation up to date an "Xbox One X ".
Logan: Good choice.
Lincoln: I know, *Chuckles*.
Logan gladly bought it with ease which made Lincoln uncontrollably happy but felt guilty about the price so Logan assured him it was nothing seeing as how he was rich and I mean RICH! He also bought Lincoln the latest game that came with it so he can have fun with it later, since Logan agreed to play with him when he had the time.
Lincoln: Wanna play with me sometime soon?
Logan: Sure, when I have the time.
Lincoln: It's 3:45.
.
.
.
Logan: You~
Logan ruffled Lincoln's hair while he laughed from his own joke before the next sister came and it was none other than Leni.
Leni: Big Brother! Follow me. I tote's found the most beautiful dress like ever.
Leni came up and linked with her Big brother's arm, leading him to another boutique shop.
She showed him a beautiful dress in the center of the shop where they were showcasing it; it was a Turquoise Rhinestone dress, lined with valuable jewels and handcrafted by famous clothes designers all around the world, that mounted up to a hefty amount.
Logan gladly bought it for her and she then embraced her Big Brother with a cheerful smile, Logan alone was satisfied seeing his sister like this, and she went to a changing room, came out, and showed herself to Logan in the dress, with him cheering and admiring his little sister.
Logan: (Grins)You look beautiful Leni, I'm proud to be your Big Brother.
Leni: (Smiles) Big brother.
They hugged each other, but this time gently.
Leni: (Sheds a Tear) Thank you for coming back, Logan.
Logan: Anytime Leni, I always will.
Luan then came next, breaking Logan and Leni's hug, and led Logan to a Comedy Store.
She pointed at a microphone that was displayed and was encrusted/embedded with jewels, wireless, and comes with a spare for her to use in her next comedy gig, Logan bought it and gave it to Luan which she happily accepted and gave Logan a hug which he also returned, they broke apart and to celebrate she made a few jokes.
Luan: "Jewel (You'll) be surprised at how much I Phoned (Honed) my comedy skills" *Laughs* Get it!
Logan: *Laughing* Nice one Sis, I'm glad you became a comedian just like you promised.
Luan: (Smiles) Thanks, Logan Brother.
They shared one last hug before Logan noticing his youngest sister Lily at the kiddie train station. He came up and asked her baby sister.
Logan: Hey there Lily, do you like the train?
Lily looked at her brother and simply babbled some cute baby noises.
Lily: Chu-cho twa-in.
Logan: Well, how's about we get it for you?
Lily: *Babbling Happily* Oggen! *Giggles*.
Logan asked the conductor if the train was for sale. At first he said it wasn't but after a bit of haggling and a good proposition they agreed and also accepted to set it up for them when they deliver the package.
Logan signed the document before finally purchasing the train and asked to bring it to The Loud House's location. He let Lily play in the train for a bit while he looks for the last Loud sister to ask him what she wants.
Logan looked for the Electronics shop in search of Lori, which he did, He went up to her and asked her what she wanted.
Logan: (Smug Face) Hey Lori.
Lori ignored him at first but eventually gave in cause she really wanted-
Logan: So find what you're looking for? Didn't you say you were gonna find the most expensive thing there is?
Logan smugly looked at his sister which annoyed her but gave in if not because her brother was buying her something really expensive, she pointed in the center of the shop where a phone was displayed but not just any phone it was the latest version up to date.
It wasn't released anywhere else with its high definition screen, smooth graphics with hundreds of gigabytes, and to complete it, its case was encrusted with several precious jewels and a scratch-proof screensaver, it was priced over tens of thousands of dollars but little did she know that to Logan that amount was just a measly dump change for him.
Logan gave Lori the phone, and she saw her smile and teased her up a bit.
Logan: (Smirks) Happy that your Big brother got you a gift?
Lori became embarrassed and turned away while blushing, deep down she was happy her brother got her an expensive present, she always wanted the phone but couldn't afford it, but even after this she still can't forgive him for what he did but a part of her really wanted to.
Lori: (Flustered) Of course not! I hope you became bankrupt after this!
Lori left defeated to join her siblings, leaving a smug-looking Logan behind.
Logan: *Sighs* Oh, Lori.
As he joined the rest of his siblings, they were admiring each other's gifts they got from Logan.
Lynn: Cool system, Stinkoln.
Lincoln: Thanks! That's some nice football you got there.
Lynn: (Offended) Um! This isn't just some football Linc, This is a football once used and signed by the "Tom Brady", remember that Stinkoln.
Lincoln: Whatever you say.
Lola: Leni! Logan got you a dress too!?
Leni: (Cheery) He sure did! Isn't it beautiful, I can say the same for yours too, Lola.
Lola: (Prideful) I know, Leni. I was made to be beautiful.
Lana: Nice guitar you got there Luna, it might be better than your old one.
Luna: It sure is dude, I can rock better than ever now! You got some nice tools there, Lan's.
Lana: Yup! Gonna fix some real beuts with these.
Luna: I hear ya, brah!
Lily: Poo-poo!
Lisa: Lucy, it appears you requested a casket from Logan, interesting.
Lucy: Yeah, I did, but are you sure mom and dad will let you experiment with those new tools of yours, they seem dangerous.
Lisa: Pish-posh, I can properly maintain secure demonstrations and assessments with these items I received.
Luan: I say, you know there's no better time like the present, *Laughs* Get it!
Everybody: *Groans*
Luan: Aw C'mon! That was a good one, I got a gift for the comedy; you know! *Laughs*.
Lori just watched her siblings chat amongst themselves while hiding the gift she got from Logan as they were waiting for him.
Logan: (Arrives) What do you guys say we get going now.
They all nodded in confirmation (Sans Lori) as they exited the mall happy with their gifts from Logan. They went to their respective rides, some with Lori to Vanzilla while the rest with Logan in his car.
They all head home with satisfied looks on their faces.
To Be Continued...
