Spells and Louds
Chapter 68: The Handsome news
(Royal Woods Elementary)
The battle in the Koprulu sector is now behind the Spellman kids. Though they haven't really told anyone yet, they explained to Leni how intense it was. Lori did the same in telling her family.
They were actually glad it was over, but they were standing by in case the Hybrid ever make a comeback. Martin was told by Dominion Intel that there are still other Mobius outposts drifting somewhere within the sector which could only mean that there are still Hybrid out there waiting to launch another attack.
But right now school is in session.
Lincoln, Linka and Timmy enter the school. Within the hallways they spot Clyde talking to Penelope, they wave as they pass by them of course.
They all head to their lockers, then they are confronted by the rest of their friends along with Jordan.
"Jordan told us everything about what you guys did yesterday after school" said Mollie. "That must've been scary" replied Liam.
"I'm gonna guess you all kicked butt out there" said Rusty. "Wish the actual battle was on video, would wanna see you guys in action" said Stella.
"Wish we could show you guys, but Dominion government rules says that we can tell you, just not show you" replied Linka.
"It's always the government" said Zach with annoyance. "Umm, our dad works with the government" said Timmy.
Though Lincoln wasn't paying much attention to them. The one thing in his mind was the letter he got from his mom after they showed Courage his new dog house.
"Lincoln?" said Jordan. But he does not respond. "Lincoln?!" but still nothing. Feeling annoyed she pokes his nose, which wakes him up.
"Huh? What?" Lincoln looks at his friends who have confused looks. "You were spacing out back there handsome" replied Jordan. "Anything wrong bro?" asked Linka.
"Nothing, just thinking of something else" said Lincoln. They all still were confuse3d by what he meant. "Okay then dude" said Stella.
"By the way, did you guys see Clyde with Penelope earlier? They're already looking like a cute couple" said Sadie.
They all proceed to head to class. But Lincoln was still at a loss for words at what was in his mind.
(Spellman Estate)
Lincoln is now sitting in the living room, alone with the opened note inside. He then opens it and reads it again.
Dear Lincoln
It's been a long time since we last met. I remember the last time we met, was when I had to tutor you and then you're sisters came and went gaga over me. That's not the first time that's happened to me. The others were far worse than them.
Anyway, I made this letter to tell you. That I am getting married soon. I'll tell you who the lovely lady is, if you wish to contact me. I hope your sisters don't find out about this, I wouldn't want them to meddle with my relationship.
Also I heard about what happened with you and your family, so sorry iu wasn't there to help you out of that mess. But I am glad that you and three of your sisters finally found a family you could be with and congrats on becoming a superhero. If you ever wish to talk to me, give me a call. The number I in the back of the note.
From your tutor/friend Hugh Jonathan Kirsch. Cheers mate!
Lincoln places the note back and thinks about it. He then sees the number behind the note with some words.
P.S. I had to change my number so your sisters won't call me.
Lincoln smirks, he then pulls his phone out and makes the call.
"Hello there. You have reached Hugh Kirsch. I'm not here at the moment. But do so leave a message, cheerio" said the answering machine.
"Hey Hugh, it's me Lincoln. I was wondering if you wanted to come by my place and we can talk. Face-to-face. Okay bye" said Lincoln. He then hangs up and lays down on the couch.
Lincoln then stands up after smelling something in the air. He heads out of the living room and into the kitchen, where he sees Courage had just finished making two trays of chocolate chip cookies.
Lincoln licks his lips and tries to get one, but Courage swats him away with a wooden spoon.
Lincoln looks at the stern look he's getting from Courage. "Can't I have just one cookie?" asked Lincoln with pleading eyes.
Courage shakes his head no in response. "Dang it" said Lincoln. He then walks away from the kitchen. Courage then takes the tray of cookies and puts all of them in empty cookie jars.
(The nest day)
Linka and Courage are playing badminton in the backyard, Timmy and Poof are tossing horseshoes onto a steel rod, Luna is upstairs jamming with Sam, Leni is in her room chatting with Lori, Sunset is in the backyard painting everyone, Gwen is putting Lily to sleep and Neil is in his office busy.
Lincoln is in the living room with Absol watching Ghostly Encounters on TV. Suddenly they hear a knock on the door.
"Harv. Who is it?" asked Lincoln. "Some handsome man, I think he's British" replied Harv. Lincoln realizes who it is and races to the front door, leaving Absol confused. "What was that about?"
Lincoln opens the door and there standing in front of him is his former tutor Hugh.
"Hello there Linc" said Hugh. "Hey there Hugh, it's good to see you again" replied Lincoln.
"Right as rain my friend. I'm gonna guess your entire family is here" said Hugh. "Pretty much. You want me to go and get them?" asked Lincoln.
"Sounds like a good idea. Perhaps they would like to hear the news as well" said Hugh.
Lincoln smiles and heads to the backyard. Hugh sits on the couch and strokes Absol's fur. "So you're the person Lincoln's been waiting" said Abe. "Great Scotts! You talk!" said Hugh in shock.
"There is nothing normal in this house" said Abe. "I guess your right" replied Hugh.
Lincoln heads to the backyard and calls upon his siblings to come to the living room. Then he heads upstairs and call the others who are up there, he even knocks on Neil's office door to get his attention.
They were all confused as to why Lincoln would call them to the living room. "Feels like old times, back when we all had out sibling meetings" said Luna. "Totes feels like old times" said Leni.
"Wonder whats up" said Linka. "Must be important" said Timmy.
When they all arrive in the living room they see Lincoln on the couch with Hugh. Luna and Leni's jaws drop. "Buh ….. Buh ….. Buh …."
Susnet was just confused by this. "Who is this guy?" said Susnet. "Guy, this is my friend and tutor Hugh Jonathan Kirsch" replied Lincoln.
"Wow. You are very handsome" said Gwen. "I'm not complaining, but she's right" said Neil.
"He sounds British" said Timmy. He then looks and sees Linka staring at him and blushing.
Sam notices Luna staring at Hugh and gets annoyed, so she gets in front of Luna and kisses her. Luna then snaps out of the handsome trance.
"Whoa! That was way too close" said Luna as she breaks from Sam's lips. "Do that again and I swear I'm gonna be doing more than just kissing you in public" said Sam.
"Come on guys, take a seat" said Lincoln. They all get comfortable in the living room. Linka and Leni sit on the same couch as Hugh.
Courage heads into the kitchen and comes back with some glasses of Ice tea.
"So, you and Lincoln know each other" said Neil. "Indeed, it was when Lincoln needed help with his grades dropping. I was a student in the community college and I needed the extra credit in tutoring someone" said Hugh.
"Though, things weren't so swell when I meat Lincoln's sisters. They kept following me, spying on me, asking me for favors which were inappropriate and one of them tried to yell Marry me as I made my escape" said Hugh. "Even the father was crazy for me. His British was a little off and ridiculous, I felt quite insulted, well a little".
It was then Leni and Luna realized what they did when they ganged up to Hugh. "Sorry dude, guess Lincoln was right" said Luna. "We went gaga over you" said Leni.
"At least you two learned your lesson. And are living it good here, I heard about the whole bad luck incident. And I must be honest I am deeply disappointed by the louds at what they did" said Hugh. "That's why I only trusted Lincoln with the letter I wanted my uncle to give you".
"Letter?" said Sunset. "You're uncle, the veterinarian, the one who gave my wife the letter was for Lincoln" said Neil. "Indeed, and it's very grand news" said Hugh.
"Which one of us should tell them?" asked Lincoln. "I don't really know. You wanna toss a coin and see who gets to tell?" said Hugh.
"Sure" replied Lincoln. Hugh pulls out a coin and tosses it into the air. "Heads!" said Hugh. "Tails!" said Lincoln.
The coin lands onto Hugh's hand and shows heads. "Tell them Hugh" said Lincoln. "Alright, alright" replied Hugh with a slight chuckle.
They were all confused by what was happening. "Here it is. I am getting married" said Hugh.
Luna and Leni are shocked by this. Linka is now out of his handsome trance.
"Whoa!" said Sunset. "Awesome man" said Timmy. "Heh. Good for you Hugh" said Luna. "Totes have to see what the dress looks like, I wonder if I can catch the bouquet?" said Leni.
"Good for you Hugh" said Gwen. "At least my babe won't have to keep drooling over you" said Sam. "She must be one lucky gal me friend" said Neil.
"By the way, who is the lady you're marrying?" asked Lincoln.
"I think you now her mate" replied Hugh. Lincoln was still confused by this. "Alright, maybe I should give you a hint. You were distracted by her, which explained why you kept failing your grades" said Hugh.
Lincoln's eyes shrunk and same with Luna, and Sam as well. "M-M-Ms. Dimartino?!"
"Who?" said Neil, Gwen, Sunset and Timmy. "S-She was my substitute teacher back then. I kept failing because I was distracted by her natural beauty" said Lincoln.
"Same here dudes" said Luna. "I actually thought she was smoking hot when she was our substitute teacher" said Sam.
Neil and the others were shocked that Sam and Luna just admitted that. "She must be one hot lady to make you two say those words" said Neil. "Gotta agree with him" said Gwen.
"To be exact, her real name is Sirena Alexandria Dimartino" said Hugh. "We both met a year ago, after the incident with your grades".
"Whoa! Who knew that the two most good looking people would end up getting hooked to each other" said Lincoln.
"Well, you can say we both have one thing in common. A lot of people like us, or better yet love us" said Hugh.
"So, how did you two really meet?" asked Leni.
"Well I guess it was after I was chased by all of you. Once I finally got some distance I realized that my tire was out. I had to get a ride if I wanted to head back home. Then a red car came up to me and offered me a lift, when we saw each other our hearts soared. It was like the one person we were looking for" said Hugh.
"After we stared into each other, I entered her car and we headed to my place. We chatted and told each other who we were and what we do. When she dropped me off at my place, I asked he if she wanted to hang out some time. Her giggle was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard, she gave me her number and pretty much. That's where the story marches on" said Hugh.
"Damn. Talk about love at first sight" said Neil. "Reminds me when Twilight first saw Flash Sentry" said Sunset.
"Or when I had a crush on Trixie" said Timmy. "Or me with Jordan" said Lincoln. "Same with us" said Luna and Sam.
"I think I've met your gender bent version before" said Linka. "Really? I have a gender bent version?" said Hugh.
"Yup, her name is Helen. She was my tutor when my grades were failing. My brothers kept asking her questions and went gaga over her. Then Loki went too far and she slapped him in the face. She was close to calling the cops for harassment, but thankfully Rita controlled the situation" said Linka.
"And what about the male version of Sirena?" said Hugh.
"His name is Mr. Dimartino, I don't really know his first name and believe me, a lot of girls loved his amazingly handsome looks, sadly I was one of them" replied Linka.
"Incredible. Sounds just like what we all went through. Minus the calling the cops part" said Hugh.
"So, when's the big wedding day?" asked Leni. "The wedding is yet to be planned. Me and Sirena are still looking for a place for the big event. But I will inform all of you when it will be and where" said Hugh.
"Wait a minute. What?" said Gwen. "Oh, well. Since you're all such nice people and some of you have learned to not fall for my looks. I would like to invite all of you to my wedding!" said Hugh.
They all gasped and then cheered. "Do you want me to make your wife's wedding dress?" asked Leni. "I'll see if Sirena is up for it" said Hugh. "I can call Rarity if she wants in on that. She's a real fashion designer like Leni" said Sunset.
"One more thing" said Hugh. He then looks to Lincoln. "Lincoln, I want you to be my best man". Lincoln's eyes are now shrunk again. "W-What?"
"That's right chum. I want you to be my best man at the wedding" said Hugh. "And it also means you will be responsible for my bachelor party. But I'm okay with whatever you have planned".
This was a big thing for Lincoln. He's never done this before, but deep down he was honored by this.
"Hugh, this is a true honor and I promise that I will do whatever I can to make your bachelor party awesome and bloody great!" said Lincoln. "Once we know when the wedding day is".
Before Hugh leaves, Neil wanted to talk to him about something. They both have a private conversation in the kitchen. "So, you in?" asked Neil. "Most definitely, I'll see if Sirena wants to be part of it as well" said Hugh.
They both shake hands and leave the kitchen. "Listen, it's been quite a good visit. But I have to get going now" said Hugh. "I want to go tell my lovely lady about what I just told you".
"Okay Hugh. Guess we'll see you around or better yet call if it does happen" said Lincoln. The two of them shake hands.
"I look forward to what you have planned my best man" said Hugh. "You can count on me Hugh" replied Lincoln.
Hugh then says goodbye to everyone else and makes his leave to his. Blue Lamborghini?!
They all watch with shock as he drives off. "I did not know he had a car?" said Lincoln.
"Dudes! Should we tell the louds about this?!" said Luna. They all have some smirks on they're faces.
"Next time sis. I wanna see how they react when they hear about it" said Lincoln. "And see what my pals have to say about it as well".
To be continued …
The big secret is out, sort of. Just to the Spellman's and what was Neil and Hugh talking about in the kitchen. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter, leave a review and tell me what you all think.
