A/N: Hello, everyone. Here I am with my new non-canon series. Lincoln's now staying with the Casagrandes. Now for the record, not every episode will focus on Lincoln. Also, a number of episodes will take place during other episodes of this series, same for the other one, and a number of episodes will taking place during other episodes of Endings & New Beginnings. Now, let's get this show on the road.
Note: I do not own The Loud House nor The Casagrandes.
*The Casagrandes intro plays, but Lincoln Loud is in several shots (including the "amigos" panel).
June 28. Great Lakes City. A certain Mexican-American family was gathered at the breakfast table, their breakfast was on the table. But when Rosa noticed first, Ronnie Anne and Bobby, among everyone else, could see that a certain someone was missing. Lincoln Loud was in Bobby's room, stretching and yawning like a big cat, on his sleeping bag. This could be heard by the family he was with living with, by a little bit. He looked at the readers. "Here I am. Living away from the people I've had to put up with for so long. And I'm living with someone who used to bully me. And prank me more times than necessary. But she's changed for the better. Plus, I'm living with her brother. In fact, ever since I got here, Ms. Santiago decided I would sleep with the man I consider my figurative older brother. Someone who used to be the oldest girl's boyfriend. Hmm, how about that? Of course, I'm sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag, but still. You know, it's surprising that the whole family would allow me to stay with them, even if for the rest of the summer. Hmm, that's rather nice and considerate of them. Even though, I'm cursed with the power of an animal." He looked down at his hands, upset, in sadness. He spaced out momentarily. The sounds of a big cat snarling, growling and roaring, raced through his mind. Then he heard someone knocking on the door, bringing his attention. "Come on, little bro. Time to eat." Bobby called over joyously. "I'm coming, Bobby." Lincoln joined the family. What he was having for breakfast was two quesadillas. The family ate their breakfast, Lincoln was thinking in his mind, as he ate, slowly. The family could only wonder what he was thinking about, as they often took short glances at him. For years, none of them knew a lot of dark, tragic, secrets that happened in Lincoln's life. For the Louds, ever since their time traveling adventure it was a miracle that none of them exposed them to the police. That still didn't prevent Lincoln's stress from getting higher. After they were done with breakfast, they split up to do their own things. Bobby went to work in the mercado, while Lincoln was sweeping the floors. 1 hour after he arrived at the apartment that day he went to stay with the Casagrandes, he voiced that he'd be willing to work, for a salary of course. He acted mature about it, too. He swept dust from the floor, while listening to songs sung by Chayanne (in fact he was listening to three songs sung by that man on the day he left). Thankfully, the floor was small. It wasn't a long while, as he swept the floors, trying to get rid of the dust. When that was done, there was another assignment he was enlisted with. Moving several crates that were in the store, with the rest of the boys, he struggled at the beginning, this crates were heavy. Heavy objects and Lincoln haven't mixed well, for years. But, Bobby helped him out with moving these crates, the boy smiled at that, everyone involved did their part to move the crates one by one to somewhere else, Lincoln bared his teeth with the difficulty of moving these crates (in fact, Bobby was his supervisor, fitting or not). It took a while until the crates were finished being moved. Everyone breathed after they were done. Lincoln stretched his back and it cracked. He then bent down and reached for his feet 5 times.
*cut to Lincoln in front of the cash register.*
"You mean to tell me that only the people who exactly signed onto their contracts can be interviewed?"
"That's correct." The male interviewer answered.
"Hmm. That's a shame. The people I'm staying with have potential for interviews. I'm sure you wouldn't regret it."
Lincoln continued to do his part at work. He was now assigned with giving products there price tags, using the price tag gun. He took did what he did, while trying to get out of the way of customers. He looked at Bobby, checking out a customer's groceries. He didn't sport a smile. He wasn't mad either. He thought of Bobby, as he continued tagging the items, while getting out of the way of people he'd come across. Something was troubling him. He didn't want to think about it. He shook his head, and continued tagging the rest of the items in the store. After that task was done, he stayed (mostly) well-focused, as he worked with Bobby, in running the store. Bobby wasn't as smart as either of his parents or even Lori, but he could tell at times that Lincoln was troubled, even if his figurative little brother tried to hide it. The hours passed, Lincoln, Bobby, and Hector worked together in keeping the mercado in one piece, and did different types of work, including helping out customers. Thankfully, Sergio the parrot didn't come down to pester either of them, so Bobby was fortunately not having to suffer from any antics by that heartless, horrible feathery bastard. Later, while Lincoln was still working, Maria was on break at her workplace, where she took a look at a text message sent to her a 2 hours and 47 minutes ago, she saw it was from Rita Loud, she read it. To her surprise and then frustration, she and her family left, on a trip to California. Courtesy of one of their new neighbors. Who happened to move right next door to them, she facepalmed, a little bit frustratedly. How was she going to tell this to Lincoln? After the mercado was closed for the night, and everyone got paid their salary for today, Lincoln went into Bobby's room, and read one of his prehistory books on the sleeping bag, this one was one of the five books given to him by Lola. Meanwhile, Ronnie Anne was sitting on her bed, her arms wrapped around her legs. For some hours of the day, all that she could think about was Lincoln. She thought it was nice of him to put in some time to work (she still would like him if he wasn't working too, though), but she could tell that he wouldn't be happy at applicable times. At least, as long as he stayed so, the work would occupy him. With that said, she loved him, she wants to tell her feelings, but she doesn't feel courageous enough to do so. What if he doesn't feel the same? One way or another, she had to take the challenge. Her friend was living with him, she must tell him sooner or later. She thought to herself that they should bond with each other. That's useful. She put her finger to her chin as she thought to herself. Meanwhile, Lincoln was learning some facts about prehistoric animals after the Mesozoic era. For example, his home state was one of the places where fossils of the mastodon were found, and the large upper canines of a Smilodon were rather, impractical, in the book's own words. The sounds of big cats played in his mind. He went on to read his book for a while, as time passed. He has a future brother coming at some point. He wants to be someone his brother can look up to. Learning prehistory was his top priority. He read the book in his mind, as he took a look at several different facts, related to prehistory. Later, he and everyone else had dinner, and after that he went back to reading his book for a while (during all the time he was reading, in two instances, CJ, Carlino, and Carlitos joined up and read what he was reading for 10 minutes), until he dressed up and went to lie down for the night. The next morning, Bobby woke up to see that Lincoln was lying down, moving around in his sleep, fearfully. He thought about the boy's shape shifting, and sported a pitiful look for him, and sat down. He looked at him for 3 minutes. He reached out to wake him up, but just as his hand was really close to his head, he stopped, pondered something for a while, and then remembered something his mom told him, that Rita told her, concerning the shape shifting. He blew in relief at that. He rushed out of the room. But he quickly became pitiful again. He wanted to help his figurative little brother with his scandal, but since Lincoln has behaviors of a feline, he can't do that when he's asleep. Two seconds after that, and as Ronnie Anne approached his door, Lincoln woke up screaming, the noise made Sergio fall off from his perch! The Latina girl opened the door and saw Lincoln breathing almost heavily, as he came to his senses. He saw her and Bobby looking at him, he was silent for 3 minutes. "Sorry that I screamed." The two people approached him, and they put a hand around him. "It's okay, little bro. We were made aware of what you were going through every morning in general, but we still allowed you to stay." Bobby replied. "Yeah, Lincoln. We know it'll happen. We just have to get used to it. But try to-control your reaction. Who knows how long you'll stay here. No offense." "It's all right, Ronnie Anne. Thanks, you two." "You're welcome, kid. Now come on over. Have breakfast." Replied Ronalda. Everyone had breakfast (although before that Lincoln had trouble, because he restrained from washing his hands for 5 minutes, what with his cat-like behavior), after that, they split up to do their own things. Lincoln went back to reading that book he read yesterday, sitting on the bed, while Ronnie Anne was in her room, thinking about Lincoln. Today was one of Lincoln's days where he didn't have to work (granted, Hector permitted him to only work by his own choice when he arrived, but still). He continued reading that book for 24 minutes. Then he bookmarked on one of the pages with a sticky note, and started doing push-ups on the floor, painful as it started.
*cut to Lincoln on the bed.*
"I'm not one of the strongest siblings in the family you met me with. One of the best things I could lift was Lily, for example. And Lisa. And a full backpack. Look at my arms. They're so thin. I need to improve my strength. Even Lynn's arms weren't any more built than mine, yet she is stronger than me. And if I'm going to survive in middle school against bullies, I got to step up my game. I don't want them to think I'm easy pickings. They need to know that I'm not to be messed with, saber-toothed cat transformation, or not that. Now if only this apartment had a gym. It'd be useful for me to lift weights."
Lincoln was doing push-ups, sweat was flowing down onto his face. He breathed and did his push-ups as he went. Two times he would wipe the sweat off his face. He could feel the pain, all the time. He stopped after that. Overall, he had done 3 sets of 10 push-ups. He should keep trying. He should eat enough vegetables. And nuts. He should eat more nuts. He once read that nuts can increase one's intelligence (or was it just almonds?). He turned his head and saw the skateboard that Lynn gave to him yesterday. He looked at it, silently, in thought for 10 minutes. Then, his attention was brought to the sound of someone knocking on the door. "Come in." Ronnie Anne soon came in. "Hiya." The two kids said simultaneously. Ronnie Anne approached him. "I feel like heading over to the skate ramp. Want to come? I can teach you how to skateboard."
"Mmm, thanks, Ronnie Anne. But I prefer to stay here, reading my book."
"Trust me, it'll be worth your while."
"Listen, Ronnie Anne. We have our tastes. I've prioritized self-education as the highest priority. Just stick to your activities, and let me stick to mine. I'm sorry. You can ask one of your friends to join you, though." He got back to reading his book. Ronnie Anne thought to herself, as she put a finger to her chin and looked around a little bit. She soon noticed Lincoln's skateboard, and she pulled Lincoln's book down.
"Lincoln." She said with a calm face and tone. "I understand why you have book reading as your highest priority. But you got a skateboard from Lynn, the very girl who initially cost you your future, right?" Lincoln nodded in response.
"For all her faults, you could, at the very least put it to good use. Same with all of those sports gifts she gave you. You are putting one of those books Lola gave you to good use. You have plenty of time to read. Your future brother won't be born tomorrow or even next month. No offense. But you need something else positive, that's more impactful. More occupational." Lincoln was a little bit offended by the statement, but let it go. He thought to himself for a while. He looked at the skateboard for five minutes, then at Ronnie Anne for five more minutes. He looked down at the floor for two minutes, then, back to the girl. "Okay. I'll join you." "Great!" And with that, Ronnie Anne pulled Lincoln along with her by his wrist. On the way to the park, Lincoln could hear so many noises around him. Some distant noises were picked up by his ears, others hurt his ears that he had to cover him. He could also smell more things, than he could in his normal state. Suddenly, there was some loud blasting music 15 away, at one point when they were made in the park, made by some random rock and roll players who were singing, he roared in agitation and covered his ears. Apparently the serum he accidentally drank also gave him the hearing and sense of smell of a cat. He had to tell the adults he was staying with about this.
Lincoln and Ronnie Anne were at the skateboard ramp. Ronnie Anne was going to teach her friend this, in order for him to get respectively better at it in his own amount, as this month and the next month will pass. Ronnie Anne was teaching him the basic move of skateboarding from one side to the next, without any tricks at all. She proceeded to do the move, and made it to the other side. Lincoln gave her a thumb's up. He tried to do the same thing as her, but lost his footing and fell off of the skateboard, when he reached the bottom, and onto his back. The girl winced and rode down, before pulling him up. She made some hand motions as she taught him how to stop a skateboard, and some motions on how to balance himself and use his weight. Lincoln mostly paid attention to his friend as she once again passed to the other side. When it was his turn, mostly without hesitation, he rolled down to the other side, but when he went midway on the other side of the ramp, he fell and slid to the bottom, and rolled out of the way before his skateboard could collide with him. Ronnie Anne looked at him sympathetically, while Lincoln looked at his skateboard, with a lack of confidence. But something quickly sparked in him. He pounded his fist on the ramp, and he had a face of seriousness. He learned how to do it before. He's not going to give up that easily. He went back up to his side of the ramp, and tried again. He made 3 attempts, they ended up in failure, and on his latest failed attempt, he scratched his nose a little bit against the concrete. Thankfully, Ronalda brought a first aid kit with them in case of an emergency. After covering the scratch on his nose, Ronalda watched Lincoln go back to the top of the skateboard ramp with his skateboard. Lincoln skateboarded down to the ramp, he maintained his balance and weight, and finally, he made it to the other side. He was surprised. He looked down at his friend clapping at him. They smiled and gave a thumb's up to each other. If only Carlos was with them, she thought. He used to skateboard in college. Over and over again for 10 more times, Ronnie Anne would teach Lincoln first on merely riding the skateboard from one side to the other, back and forth. This was beginning to mentally occupy Lincoln. He was beginning to have fun a little bit too. The next thing they moved on to, was doing a kick turn, on the ground. Lincoln watched as Ronnie Anne stepped onto the skateboard. She had her front foot in the center of the board, one quarter from the front. She stood on the ball of her foot at a 10 degree angle back at pendicular. She put her back foot on the kick of the tail of the board. She pointed out to Lincoln that it must be at a similar angle to the front foot. She rolled her skateboard and slightly crouched, then she shifted some of the weight her feet had onto the back foot, and rocked onto the back wheels just a bit, by using her body and legs, leaning back very slightly. As she made some sort of jerking motion for a few seconds, the front wheels lifted off of the ground for 3 seconds, before she returned to a straight position and stopped the skateboard. Lincoln smiled and gave her a thumb's up. He watched as she rolled again. She was demonstrating two different ways of doing a kick turn. Ronalda turned her arms, shoulders, and hips slightly frontside, to her heel side. She crouched with her knees a little bit. She swung her arms, then shoulders, then arms to the back side and lifted up the three wheels, and turned left once she turned backside. Lincoln clapped and smiled. Ronnie Anne then showed him another way to do a kick turn, doing it the way of the front side. She rolled across again, now she turned her arms, shoulders, and hips slightly to the backside, to the toe side. She crouched with her knees a bit, she swung the arms, shoulders, and hips to the front side, she lifted up the front wheels, she turned to the left and she stopped. Lincoln clapped at her. Ronnie Anne came over and suggested he try and he agreed. Both times, he stayed focused on Ronnie Anne's moves, considerably. He put himself on his skateboard, rolled across tried to do a backside kick turn, but his weight was poorly balanced, and he lost his footing and stumbled off of the skateboard, but him spinning his arms helped him retain his balance. Ronnie Anne patted his left side. The boy went for his skateboard. He rolled across and tried again to make a kick turn, but stumbled out again. Ronnie Anne shrugged with a smile. Lincoln grabbed his board, distanced himself (not too much), rolled again, tried to make another kick turn once again as soon as he was close to Ronnie Anne, but as soon as he lifted up the wheel, he weighed himself the wrong way, stumbled again, spun around, stumbled into Ronnie Anne who tried to catch him, but they both spun a little bit, until Lincoln controlled himself while he grabbed onto the girl, but he accidentally pulled her into him at one point and they accidentally kissed each other, Ronnie Anne lost her grip and nearly fell down, but Lincoln caught her with one hand and found himself, holding Ronnie Anne, who was caught with one hand and held under him in a dipped position, as he looked down at her. They looked at each other awkwardly for 3 seconds, they blushed a little bit and chuckled awkwardly. They turned away from each other, smiling at that kiss. Five minutes passed. They turned back to each other. Ronnie Anne demonstrated to show Lincoln how to do a kick turn, half more slowly. Lincoln paid more attention on how to do both ways of doing a kick turn. Lincoln tried again on his skateboard, and after two more failed attempts, he finally succeeded at doing a back side kick turn, Ronnie Anne clapped and smiled with an open mouth. Lincoln did 3 more kick turns, and when he stopped, he blew in satisfaction. He needed to keep trying this. He shouldn't become rusty from doing otherwise. Next, he tried doing the front side kick turn, he failed on the first two attempts, but on the next one, he succeeded, and did this again 3 more times, as his Latina friend clapped. She grabbed Lincoln's wrist and pulled him over. Next, she tried to teach him on how to do a normal turn. She leaned to the left, the skateboard turned left, she went around Lincoln, then she leaned to the right, and the board turned right, Lincoln could understand. Lincoln tried this, he leaned to the left, and then to the right, both were successful. Ronnie Anne thought of something, she whispered it in Lincoln's ear. He was hesitant for a minute, but then agreed to it, compliantly. Ronnie Anne and Lincoln went over to some trees and rocks, Ronnie Anne went first, going straight into the first tree, then went in a curvy line around the incoming trees and rocks, while Lincoln watched from the side. Lincoln watched in admiration, and she was starting to have him enamored. He quickly shook it off though and stayed focused. After she was done, he went on to the beginning of the obstacles, he rolled straight towards it, he turned left and right, going around a few trees and rocks, but nobody noticed that there was a small rock in his way, and just as he went around another big rock, the skateboard's front wheels went over the rock, and Lincoln was wobbling, trying to regain control. Ronnie Anne rushed for him as he skateboarded out of the way, Lincoln quickly broke with one foot, but he broke in a small muddy area and he was spinning a little bit before Ronnie Anne caught up to him, only for Lincoln to collided into him, and they rolled for a little bit, with Lincoln ending up on top of the girl. They looked at each other blankly. Their minds were erased. They only focused on their eyes. Oh man. 3 minutes passed, as they kept looking at each other and smiled warmly, then they slowly thought of them, doing something together, Lincoln thought of them swimming in the ocean together, Ronnie Anne pictured them playing instruments together. Their gaze of enamorment lasted for a while, until they began to return to reality. They looked at each other awkwardly and distanced themselves. Lincoln apologized for crashing into her, he was forgiven. Ronnie Anne motioned to join her, Lincoln followed her. Ronnie Anne guided Lincoln in learning how to do a normal turn on a skateboard. After a while of doing that, Lincoln failed 3 attempts in going around those trees and rocks, the path had to be cleared too of rocks and stones. He managed to make it halfway through on the 4th attempt, and on the 5th attempt, he finally made it all the way through the amount of trees and rocks, making left and right turns. Ronnie Anne cheered for him. Lincoln felt successful, satisfied, and proud. He got off his skateboard and raised his arms up high. Ronnie Anne came over to him, they high fived each other with both hands, they danced a little bit, and then, Ronnie Anne hugged him with her eyes closed, a warm smile on her face. Lincoln was taken by surprise at first. But after a minute, he smiled, enamored, and warmed for his success. He felt an urge for something. He slowly moved his arms, but quickly pulled the, back as soon as Ronnie Anne broke the hug, and pulled him over. Lincoln would continue learning on how to make different skateboard turns from their width for a while. Then, he and Ronnie Anne had lunch (thankfully they brought money with them) from a soft pretzel cart, and they also bought ice cream from an ice cream cart, they were thinking about each other most of the time. Sometimes, when one of them was looking away, the other kid would become enamored with his/her friend, otherwise, they were both good at hiding their feelings. After that, Ronnie Anne was teaching Lincoln on how to do the following move, tic-tacs. Lincoln practiced for a while, gradually getting better at it. Then, Lincoln was gradually learning on how to do a wheelie trick, as he mostly focused on Ronnie Anne, teaching him. Who better to teach him all of the things to do in the field of skateboarding then Ronnie Anne? The next basic tricks Lincoln had to learn were riding backwards, fakie or switch, fakie kick turn, rolling off of a drop (elsewhere), rolling down the ramp, pumping, kick turning on the ramp, dropping in, and carving. Lots of times Lincoln ended up failing, and almost half often he would get hurt (thankfully, he didn't get severely hurt most of the time), but he refused to give up, Ronalda also gave him encouragement, while also telling him when to stop for now, all this training was helping him love it and become motivated (not to mention it kept him occupied from thinking about the Louds, it also continued to get these two kids enamored with each other a little bit beyond a little bit often at times), though he had to rest when it counted, in spite of his misfortunes, he gradually came to get better every time in learning skateboarding. Now even though he was starting to become impatient and wanted to learn more than basic tricks sooner, he would try to put that aside and just learn at where he was now. Right now, Lincoln was paying attention as Ronnie Anne did two certain things necessary for the next trick, and then performed a skateboard Ollie. Lincoln entirely paid attention this time. He got onto his skateboard, he rolled his skateboard across while crouched down on his knees, he used them, he jumped and landed back on his board. He repeated this 8 more times. Next, he stood still on the skateboard, and he popped the tail by hitting it hard down on the ground. He did this again 10 more times, at the beginning, he had to try to stay on the board while doing this. Once he got better at both moves, he went on to try it for real. He placed his feet on his skateboard, he crouched at the knees, he jumped fast and popped hard at the same time, he rose with the board, leveled it out a bit, he started coming back down, and he landed on the board and crouched for balance! Ronnie Anne cheered him on. And he was surprised. This was the first trick he had gotten right, on the first try. Ronnie Anne came over and patted him on the back, and they did slid their hands across each other and did a fist bump. Lincoln was now watching as Ronnie Anne rolled across the ramp back and forth. "I'm having the time of my life here." Lincoln's voice spoke in the background.
*cut to Lincoln in front of the skateboard ramp.*
"Ronnie Anne sure provided me a fun and exciting day. I had underwent a lot of different things here. Who would've thought I wouldn't be glum today? And I feel—so happy with her inside me. It's more than that. Let's just say she feels like she's the best part of my world, one of them, alongside Pop-Pop. What can't we do together?" He joked at the end there.
Lincoln was skateboarding back and forth across the skateboard. He was greatly having fun. Ronnie Anne skateboarded over to his side.
The two kids looked up to the sky and saw that the afternoon was getting darker. Lincoln watched as Ronnie Anne demonstrated a flip trick, the heel flip. She skateboarded over to him, and gave him instructions on how to do a heel flip, he wasn't yet ready to do a heel flip, but you know. She demonstrated certain moves needed to do this flip for him. He looked down at the ramp, blew, and hoped he wouldn't fail to the point of getting hurt. Ronnie Anne put a hand on his left shoulder, offering to teach him a different trick. A little bit reluctantly, he politely declined. He rolled down, popped the board with a good size Ollie and jumped backwards to keep the board under him, he jumped into the air on the other side, he flicked his heel all the way over, he followed through with his front foot and held it out over the board, with perfect timing, he landed his feet on the ride side of the board, he balanced himself, and he made it back to Ronnie Anne's side, and made a mostly perfect landing. He gave a thumb's up and she clapped. They looked at each other, calmly, blankly, admirably, for five minutes, smiling, Ronnie Anne's head tilted to her right. And with that, Ronnie Anne went on to teach Lincoln how to do a spin trick on a skateboard for a while, and then a pop shuvit, but after all of that training, it was getting darker, as the sun was almost gone, and the two kids went back home, but Ronnie Anne vowed she would keep teaching Lincoln more skateboarding lessons. They went back to the apartment. As soon as they returned to their respective room, Maria was there, with an expectant look on her face. The kids were confused. "Am we in trouble, Ms. Santiago?" Asked Lincoln. Maria shook her head. "No, it's not that, but this only concerns you. Come into my bedroom, Lincoln. This should only be discussed between you and me in there. We need to talk." Lincoln followed her inside, and Ronnie Anne waited outside of the door. Lincoln heard of all of the details Maria was told by Rita Loud, concerning her trip to Valencia, California. Lincoln's mind shattered. He became half sad, and half upset. The people he moved away from, went on a trip, without him, to California, and he remembered (although he didn't tell her) that the Regulars lived in that state. For most of the day, he didn't think about them, and now he was presented with hurtful news about them. He was comforted a little bit by saying that the Louds didn't feel happy not having him with them, and Lily was missing him later during the flight. Even though he did remember that he was stressed more with them in his presence. He was quite surprised that they were being financially accommodated by a tycoon, though, even more that tycoons were moving right next to his house. Maria wrapped her arms around him, in comfort and did her best to comfort him. Lincoln hugged her a little bit. After that, he came out, feeling a little bit sad. Ronnie Anne came over to him and heard the entire story from him. She was told by him that her mom had already told everyone else about this while they were away. She comforted him, and did that even further with taking him to a sports channel, and there was a bull riding event going on, this helped to distract him. He shortly put his arm around her and smiled, and she was tempted to put her hand on his when she saw that their hands were right next to each other. Later, the entire family had dinner, Lincoln and Ronnie Anne took glances at each other at times when one of them was distracted. Friendly, concerned (mostly in Ronnie Anne's case), and love-related thoughts about each other had filled their minds when that happened. Bobby could see this, and smiled supportively. Most of today, he had not thought about Lori. He can move on from her. It won't be easy, but he can move on. The family continued eating, then Lincoln's voice spoke in the background.
"I should get to know these people for the days to come. They seem like nice people. I was surprised when they said they'd take me in."
*cut to Lincoln, in his underwear and socks, sitting on his sleeping bag, in a criss cross position, with his book in his lap.*
"I was too stressed to stay with the Louds any longer. But the Santiagos and the Casagrandes, they could've declined. We didn't get to know each other very well. But they accepted to let me stay over. Even though I have the power of a big cat."
"Yes, I see." Said the interviewer.
"Maybe I can bond with Bobby's male cousins. I probably could fit in. But I mostly can't wait to learn more lessons from Ronnie Anne. She probably should become a skateboarding teacher when she grows up. *Sigh.*" His eyes went up to the ceiling, and they were half-lidded. "I love her." He quickly became aware and surprised. He turned to the camera. "Don't tell her I said that, please. I want to tell her myself. And I don't want there to be awkwardness so soon."
"Okay, we won't."
Later, everyone went to sleep. Ronalda and Lincoln (in his pants, without his shirt) bid each other good night, and Lincoln closed the door, taking off his pants again, and he got under the cover on his sleeping bag, and lied down. Bobby walked past him to turn off the light.
"Good night, little bro." Bobby told him.
"Good night, Bobby." Bobby went on to lie down in his bed, and went to sleep. As for Lincoln, he was still awake, he could only think about what nightmare he'd have next, concerning him as a murderer. This was an endless cycle. But, he decided he should try to control his reaction, and that today was another day to have fun with, even if mostly. He closed his eyes and dozed off, for another day would come, a day he should be acting positive. And the fact that his family didn't feel happy about him, sparked something a little bit in him.
A/N: Lincoln's going to go through different events in this chapter. And he'll need the help and support that he can get. If you ask me, the Casagrandes should get a third season, and end it there, and have the Santiagos move back to Royal Woods. Whether or not their relatives will join them is up to the writers. Stephen Hillenburg did want SpongeBob SquarePants, it lasted for three seasons before the movie was made.
