In the city of Royal Woods lived a family of thirteen, two parents and eleven children, ten of those children being daughters and one son among the group. This was the Loud Family, a name they quite well live up to.
The boy's name was Lincoln Loud, a tenth grade boy who's had some whacky adventures with his sisters and his friends, but notably his girlfriend Stella. The two began dating five years prior, a move that surprised them both given how adamant Stella was about not wanting to date yet. However she just fell in love with Lincoln, and after some persuasion, as well as motivation from Lincoln's friend Ronnie Anne Santiago, a girl who ironically also had a crush on Lincoln, Stella had begun dating the boy and the two have been in love since that day.
There have bee a few hurdles, such as jealous friends and classmates, plus the intended matchmaking that happened the first year they dated, Lincoln's oldest sister Lori insisting that he date her boyfriend's little sister Ronnie Anne while his closest older sister Lynn had tried too hard keeping Stella in his line of view.
One of the biggest hurdles included an unfortunate incident in which Stella had cheated on Lincoln by one of his sisters, that being Luan. It was a spur of the moment decision, as Stella didn't really harbor feelings towards Luan, she was just a bit curious. Luan felt the same way, having a boyfriend herself, she was too in love with him to even seriously consider Stella, plus neither one really liked girls all that much, it was more of an experimental move.
Fortunately Lincoln was easily forgiving, both from having understood the situation, and since he's no better for having kissed Ronnie Anne's best friend Sid. Rather Sid kissed him but he didn't do much to stop it.
Since then both Lincoln and Stella had vowed to be more honest with each other, which wasn't the easiest thing, hard as they tried, some things they worried about telling one another, but thankfully it hasn't been anything major. They had no secrets with each other, and no secrets to hide from others, but soon that logic would be put to the test.
Lincoln and Stella had been dating for five years and each felt ready to take their relationship to the next level, and physically show love to one another.
The two were together in a room that Lincoln was sharing with both Lucy and Lynn, the latter having moved in a couple years prior after it just being Lincoln and Lucy for three years. Neither girl was home, in fact not many of the residents of the Loud House were, only Lisa, Lily and the twins. Luna was out on band practice, Luan had a date, Lynn met with her friends for a game of soccer, Lucy and Haiku had gone to write poetry, both Lori and Leni were away at their college dorms, so the house was a bit quieter.
Of course Lincoln had his way of covering any sounds he and Stella would be making, that being using a radio to drown out the noise.
"Really gotta thank Ronnie Anne for this radio tip," Lincoln said. "Should give us some extra privacy."
"Wonder how many times she and Sid used it?" Stella wondered.
"Often, not for the reason we're up to right now though, they did it to share secrets," Lincoln said, getting himself ready. "So you're a hundred percent sure you wanna do this?"
"Yeah, I am," Stella said laying back, covered under the blankets for the moment. "I've been wanting this for a long time."
Lincoln blushed a deep red, he's never seen Stella naked before, this would be his first time doing so. He knows she at least keeps in shape, and while her physique would never be a deal breaker, he won't take her appearence for granted either.
"Well, I won't keep you waiting much longer," Lincoln said, getting under the covers as he tossed away one last item of clothing.
With the help of the music, and the fact that most of the siblings in the house were already preoccupied, Lincoln and Stella were able to enjoy their intimacy with one another, throwing caution to the wind and having a great time.
By the end, the two were laying next to each other in bed, both feeling very relaxed and at peace from their session, it truly was remarkable.
"How are you feeling?" Lincoln asked.
"Heavenly," Stella said, turning her attention to her boyfriend. "You're really good, especially considering it was your first time."
"Well it was also your first time, so it's not like there's much to compare to," Lincoln said.
"I still say you did well, I've never felt such a rush of sensations," Stella said, leaning in and kissing Lincoln. "I love you."
"I love you too Stella," Lincoln said, returning the kiss. The two remained in each other's embrace for a while longer until they fell asleep.
It was really awkward a couple hours later when Lynn and Lucy got home and found the two sleeping naked together in bed.
"Damn bro, you got laid," Lynn commented.
"Should we leave?" Lucy said. "I don't think Lincoln will be too pleased if he wakes up and sees us," Lucy said.
"Sure, let's crash in Lori and Leni's old room for the time being," Lynn said. "And try to make sure no one bothers Lincoln, especially Lily, Lisa or the twins."
"Lily I understand, but Lisa and the twins already know about this stuff," Lucy said as they left the room.
"Hey! Lynn, Lucy!" Luan said, getting their attention. "Did either one of you take my candy from my drawer?"
"Uh, no," Lynn said. "You know I try not to eat sweets."
"You eat chocolate," Lucy said.
"Chocolate's fine, it's healthier than regular candy," Lynn said. "Point is I didn't eat any candy."
"Well someone just made off with my candy, I hid them in my underwear drawer to keep them safe and apparently it still wasn't enough!" Luan said.
"Wow, someone went through your panties for candy?" Lynn said. "That's a bit desperate. Maybe Luna took some?"
"I would have noticed," Luan said. "Is Lincoln home? Maybe he snuck some candy?"
"Oh he got something sweeter than that," Lynn joked.
"Huh?" Luan asked. "Oh, is Stella with him? Maybe I won't bother them, last time I checked in on them during a date, Lincoln looked a bit annoyed, he's almost turning into Lori."
"Come on, you got a boyfriend too you know, you should understand how it feels when someone interrupts you and disrupts your funky flow," Lynn said.
"Uh, I guess you're right, I'll ask him later, I mean I doubt he would have went into my room though, he's a bit more respectful of our privacy than we are with him," Luan said.
"Try asking the twins," Lucy suggested. "Or Lily, you know how much she likes to explore."
"Good idea, I'll start with the twins, Lola is good at figuring out hiding spots, but if you do happen to spot it, let me know, " Luan said.
"What type of candy is it anyway?" Lynn asked.
"It's in a little red bag, can't miss it," Luan said, then started making her way down the hall.
Lynn turned her attention to her goth sister, "So, who do you think went after her sweets?"
"I haven't the foggiest idea," Lucy said. "I'm going to write poetry, what will you do until Lincoln and Stella wake up?"
"Gonna work out a bit," Lynn said, making her way outside. "See ya later Luce."
"See you," Lucy said, making her way to the linen closet she once shared with Lincoln, getting started on her poetry.
Time passed, the young couple had finally awakened from their slumber, feeling very much at peace with one another. The two had showered, separately of course to avoid raising suspicion and to repress their desires.
Stella made her way home, not without kissing her boyfrined good-bye and thanking him for a wonderful time. Right after she left, Lincoln walked over to the couch, plopping himself while sighing in relief, feeling the happiest he's been in possibly his whole life. This did not go unnoticed by Lola, who was watching tv.
"What's with you?" Lola asked.
"Love..." Lincoln answered.
"Uh...alright, weirdo," Lola said, focusing back on her show.
"Lola, do you have anyone you're crushing on?" Lincoln asked.
"No, I'm not focused on that right now," Lola said. "I mean I have my admirers but no one's really catching my eye." Lola then realized her brother's question, "Wait, why do you even want to know?"
"I'm just curious, I mean I'm really happy with Stella and I kind of wanted to know if you're feeling that same happiness," Lincoln explained.
"Well, that's nice of you to ask but I'm fine right now," Lola said. "If I ever do get someone, you'll find out, after all we both know how hard it is keeping a secret in this house."
"Right, secrets..." Lincoln said, thinking about what he and Stella had done earlier. "Uh, if you had a secret you wanted to keep, would you be able to though? Even here?"
"Of course, it's all about covering your tracks," Lola said. "Why? You trying to hide something?"
"Uh...don't worry about it," Lincoln said, blushing a bit. "I was just curious."
Lola knew Lincoln was hiding something, she could always tell with her brother, "Linky, if you do have a secret, you know you can trust me. I won't tattle."
"No offense Lola, but I have a hard time believing that," Lincoln said.
Lola frowned at that, "Lincoln, I'm eleven years old, I think I should have your trust by now. Plus if there's something you're worried about, you're gonna need a sister you can trust, and you can trust me, I mean I trusted you with some of my secrets, you were the first person to know I couldn't read that one time."
"Lola, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I can't," Lincoln said, blushing a bit. "See, it involves Stella and..."
"How heated you both got?" Lynn interrupted, surprising Lincoln.
"Where'd you come from!?" Lincoln asked.
"Yeah, who are you, Lucy?" Lola asked
"No, I am," Lucy said, getting a startled scream from Lincoln and Lola. "Not that I care all that much, but is there a reason me sneaking up on you made you scream but Lynn didn?"
"Force of habit," Lincoln said. "Plus you have that aura to you."
"Makes sense to me, but anyway, me and Lynn know all about you and Stella," Lucy said. "We know what you both did."
"What are you getting at?" Lincoln nervously asked.
"Oh, so you two finally did it huh?" Lola asked, getting a blush from Lincoln. "Finally went trough with your hormones and emotions?"
"Did what?" Lincoln asked, trying to feign ignorance. "I have no idea what they're talking about."
"Oh save it Linky, I know all about that stuff, I've seen Lana's pets after all," Lola said.
Lincoln groaned in annoyance, "Dang it Lana...Wait so she knows too?"
"At this point, I think Lily is the only one who doesn't know about this stuff," Lynn said.
"Good, let's keep it that way," Lincoln said. "Anyway how did you-"
"We came home and saw you both sleeping together in bed, with your clothes on the floor, including your underwear," Lynn said.
Lincoln found himself blushing some more, "I guess I couldn't really keep it a secret."
"Hey don't be ashamed, we're proud of you, at least I am," Lynn said. "You finally did it with your girlfriend, another Loud loses their virginity, even I haven't had that luxury yet."
"Were you protected though?" Lucy asked.
"Yeah..." Lincoln said, not wanting to go into detail. "We took precautions."
Lynn seemed a bit concerned by his hesitation, "Are you absolutely sure bro? This is serious, you want to make sure you were properly protected."
"Stella took a pill, that's enough right?" Lincoln asked.
"Well, yeah it is, but what about your other precaution?" Lynn asked. "I mean didn't you complete your errand from earlier? I know you went to a pharmacy and it wasn't just for Clyde's inhaler was it?"
"I think there was a bit of a mix-up," Lincoln shamefully admitted. "I got Clyde's package and he might have gotten mine."
Lynn stifled a laugh, "He what? Oh man what if his dads find out?"
"I'll make it up to him," Lincoln said. "What's important is that no one else finds out about this, namely our sisters."
"Your worried about our sisters?" Lynn asked. "I mean Lily I can understand but what's so bad about our sisters finding out? This is a major flex for you."
"I'm just worried how they'll react knowing that me and Stella did...that," Lincoln said.
"They'd be proud little bro, Stella's a very attractive chick, you should be bragging that you got it on with a fine girl like that," Lynn said.
"Lynn, this is serious, Stella isn't just some hot chick, she's my girlfriend that I care about a lot," Lincoln said. "I'm just worried that this might be weird for her too."
"You're worrying over nothing Linky," Lola said. "Our sisters aren't going to make a big deal about this, I mean they didn't when they found out about Luna or Luan."
"Yeah they did, Leni nearly blabbed to all her friends on both occasions on how her little sisters finally did the deed," Lincoln said. "Neither one of them wanted to leave their room for a week because of how much of a big deal our sisters made it out to be, then the way dad reacted."
"Of course dad reacted that way, they were his daughters, if he found out about you then he'd be proud," Lynn said. "Of course mom might be a bit weirded out but she handles this stuff a million times better than dad."
"Just try to keep it a secret for now, I don't want them asking me questions," Lincoln said. "That goes for all of you."
"Fine, have it your way," Lola said. "But if Stella comes back for seconds, or thirds, or just takes unlimited refills, soon the others are gonna find out about it."
"I'll worry about that later," Lincoln said.
"Also next time make sure you're protected on your end," Lynn said. "I mean it's good that Stella took her precautions but you need to do the same thing little bro."
"I agree with Lynn, you don't want to accidentally get her pregnant," Lucy said.
"Yeah, though what are the odds of that even happening on our first time," Lincoln said.
"Not odds you want Linc, but as long as you remember, I mean it sounds like you did, you just had a little mishap," Lynn said. "My advice, go to Clyde's ASAP and get what you need so if you and Stella want a repeat, you'll be ready on your end."
"Uh right...man I hope this weren't too awkward with his dads," Lincoln said.
"It'll be fine," Lynn reassured.
Later that evening it was time for bed. Lincoln had changed into his PJs and gotten on his mattress while Lynn and Lucy went to their bunk bed, with Lucy on the bottom and Lynn on the top. While on his bed, Lincoln noticed something that had been left behind. "Oh man, what do I do with these?"
"With what?" Lynn asked, taking note of the bag.
"The pills Stella used before our...session," Lincoln said.
"She left them here?" Lynn said, getting off her bed. "Wonder where she got those?"
"She actually borrowed them from Luan," Lincoln explained. "She went to her room to use them when I forgot my...protection."
Lucy took note of something, the bag was red, like the one missing from Luan's room. She started to put two and two together and came to a terrible conclusion. "Does Luan know she took them?"
"Luan wasn't home, so I'm kind of hoping she won't mind," Lincoln said.
Lucy started to sweat a bit, Lynn seemed to be catching on as well, understanding this potential plight. Being bold, Lynn decided to be a bit up front, "So, since she had the pills...does that mean you filled your load inside her?"
Lincoln angrily blushed, "That's really not any of your business!"
"Just asking, I mean filling up your girl, might be satisfying to a guy," Lynn said. "And it would definitely be satisfying to a girl, I mean I can't speak from experience but..."
"Alright let's drop this, what me and Stella do on my bed is our business only," Lincoln said, feeling a bit awkward.
"Forgive her Lincoln, you know how...up front Lynn can be," Lucy said, then got off her bed, making her way toward Lincoln. "Though Luan might want that back, I can take it to her if you want."
"Yeah, she might need this soon, especially if she goes to see Benny, or if he comes here," Lincoln said.
"Has anyone heard them doing it?" Lynn asked. "All these years and I think I only heard them once, as oppose to Luna and Sam, I hear them once a month."
"I don't pay attention really," Lucy said, grabbing the bag. "Not that it should matter, it's their private moment of romance."
"Well I appreciate you taking those back to Luan, it would be awkward if I did it, she might be mad at me since my girlfriend is the one who used them," Lincoln said.
"It's fine," Lucy said and left the room.
Lynn hopped off her bed, "I'll go with her, just in case Luan starts questioning her."
"What's there to question, Lucy's only thirteen, she doesn't even have a boyfriend," Lincoln said. "At least I don't think she does."
"We're all single Linc, aside from you, Lori, Luna and Luan," Lynn said.
"You know that reminds me," Lincoln began. "What happened to all the boys you girls had a crush on five years ago?"
"I don't know, what happened to the girl you had a crush on before Stella?" Lynn asked. "Things change bro, in the end only Luna and Luan lucked out from that."
Lynn left the room, leaving Lincoln to himself. "Kind of wish they all had someone, guess I'm one of the lucky ones."
At Luan's room, Lucy had knocked and awaited an answer. Instead of Luan, it was Luna who answered the door, "What you need Luce?"
"Oh, I wanted Luan, I had something for her," Lucy said.
"Is that Lucy? What does she want?" Luan asked, then looked to the bag in Lucy's hand. "Hey, is that my candy!? So you DID have it!"
"I didn't take it, Stella did," Lucy said.
"Yeah, we found them on Lincoln's bed, he said Stella came by earlier to take in from your room," Lynn said.
"Huh? Why would she do that? Was she craving candy that much?" Luan asked.
"So, this is candy?" Lynn asked. "It's not, you know...those pills that prevent pregnancy?"
"Huh?" Luan asked. "Pills that...what the heck gave you that idea?"
Lynn looked around to make sure none of the other sisters were eavesdropping, especially Lola. She snuck into the room with Lucy, unaware that Lola was indeed eavesdropping. The walls are pretty thin and she just happened to overhear a few choice words. Lana was asleep however and didn't hear a thing, but Lola happened to be putting the final touches of her face mask when she heard about the 'candy' and Lincoln's bonding with Stella.
Being ever so quiet, she grabbed a cup and snuck her way down the hall, placing a glass against the door and her ear against the glass.
"Here's the thing," Lynn said. "Stella took your candy because she thought those were pills that prevent pregnancy. She didn't know it was actual candy."
"Uh, why would she need those?" Luan asked, before her face turned pale. "Unless..."
"You guessed it, she and Lincoln finally took that next step in their relationship," Lynn said.
"Alright bro!" Luna cheered, before immediately getting shushed. "Heh, sorry, but can you blame me? I'm so proud of Lincoln. Now he's in our club Luan."
"Let's not call it a 'club', it's embarrassing," Luan said, blushing a bit.
"Uh, do you two not realize the situation here?" Lynn asked. "Stella thought these pills prevent you from getting pregnant, meaning she and Lincoln weren't protected!"
"Wait, what about Lincoln, doesn't he have protection?" Luna asked. "I mean he thought of that didn't he? Lincoln's not a fool after all, he knows the risk."
"Yeah apparently he and Clyde switched packages, I mean how the hell do you make a mistake like that?" Lynn said. "Point is that those two did the deed and didn't have any protection on either side."
"That means...Stella might have gotten pregnant!" Luan said, getting worried at the idea. "Oh man, that would be terrible! To be parents at that age!"
"Let's pump the brakes there, we don't know if she's pregnant, I mean just because they didn't have protection doesn't mean she's gonna be carrying around a little Loud," Luna said. "Maybe they lucked out, I mean you lucked out once, didn't you Luan?"
"Wait what!?" Lynn asked.
"I told you to keep that a secret!" Luan angrily shouted.
"Luan, what happened?" Lynn asked.
Luan groaned in annoyance, "Minor accient with Benny, don't ask."
"But-" Lynn tried protesting.
"I don't like discussing this stuff, especially with you!" Luan angrily said.
"You told Luna," Lynn said.
"More like she spotted us when she and Sam were sneaking in through the window," Luan said.
"Huh? Why were you two sneaking through a window?" Lucy asked.
"It was past curfew, so we couldn't go in through the front," Luna explained. "Let's get back on topic."
Lynn nodded in agreement, "What do we do about Lincoln and Stella?"
"For now, nothing, no use telling them now when we don't know if anything happened," Luna said. "Give it like a week."
"Yeah, good idea, let's not get them worried over probably nothing," Luan said. "Just make sure they're properly protected next time."
"We got this covered," Lynn said.
Lola couldn't believe her ears, Lincoln has the possibility to become a father to Stella's child, but that's only if she actually got pregnant. She quickly made her way back to her room, thinking everything over, the odds of her brother being a father, and the idea that she might become an aunt. Of course Lola expected to become an aunt soon, but she thought it would have been through Lori and Bobby's relationship rather than Lincoln and Stella. She would worry about that later, maybe it was a false alarm.
A few days had passed, so far everything seemed fine. Lincoln and Stella went through a few days at school without much, of course their classmates have noticed that the two were acting much flirtier with each other.
Soon Stella had gone back to the Loud House, eager for another session with Lincoln. The boy had gone to Clyde's house to return a game he borrowed from his friend, but promised to meet Stella at his house later. As she made her way inside, she passed by Lynn, the jock immediately noticing her.
"Yo Stells, you got a minute?" Lynn said, getting Stella's attention.
"Oh hi Lynn, what is it?" Stella asked.
"It's nothing really, just wanna check on you and Lincoln, I don't know why but something seems different about the two of you," Lynn said.
"Different? How so?" Stella asked.
Lynn really had to think about this, how to word it so that Stella doesn't get worried or weirded out. She had to tread lightly, even if the two have gotten along better as of late, it took Lynn forever to reach this point and she does not want to blow it. But at the same time, she really needs to know, for the sake of her brother and her friend.
"You just seem...happier, and so does he," Lynn said. "Lincoln's been in a very good mood this past week, more so than usual."
"Oh, well I guess he's just in a happy mood," Stella said.
"Yeah, bit too happy," Lynn said. "Look, I really don't want to be blunt but I can't really afford to beat around the bush too muh, so I gotta ask, did you two seal the deal?"
"Seal the deal?" Stella asked.
"You know, the horizontal dance, getting rough, banging?" Lynn said, trying to get through to Stella, but it just seemed to confuse her. "Ugh, were you two sexually active recently?"
"Sexually..." Stella began to blush, realizing what Lynn was getting at. "Uh...that seems like a really personal question."
"I know, but call it sisterly worry," Lynn said. "I mean, if you are doing it, that's fine, I can respect that, I just want to make sure you two have your protective gear on. Lincoln is my little brother after all, I gotta make sure he stays on top of that stuff. Plus you're my friend so I'm doing this for you too Stells."
"That's really sweet of you..." Stella bashfully rubbed her head. "Maybe we have been close, but I swear we always do this the correct way."
"How often have you two done it?" Lynn asked.
"...Once," Stella felt kind of embarrassed talking about this. "I took some protective pills though."
"And Lincoln?" Lynn asked.
"He...had a mix-up, but I swear the pills should be enough," Stella said.
"Were the pills from your house?" Lynn asked.
Stella shook her head, "I may have borrowed them from Luan, I don't think she would mind though, I mean at least I don't run any risks now."
"Alright then," Lynn of course knew those pills were just candy, she was actually a bit surprised that Stella hadn't realized that. "As long as you're staying safe."
"Of course, safety is our number one priority and...huh?" Stella noticed Lana coming down the stairs, eating a bag of candy. However this candy was familiar to Stella, it was the same bag she found in Luan's room. "Uh, Lynn...Lana has something I don't think she should."
"Lana always has stuff like that, I really thought you'd be used to-" Lynn had turned around and saw the bag as well, her face turning pale. "Oh no..."
"Hey Stella, when did you get here?" Lana asked, stuffing her face as she continued to talk with a full mouth, "Lincoln's upstairs if you wanna meet him."
"Please don't talk with your mouth full, it's not proper," Stella said. "Also you really shouldn't be eating that!"
Lana swallowed the candy, looking a bit annoyed, "It's fine, I do it all the time. I know you're dating my brother but that doesn't mean you have to act like my sister, or my mom for that matter. Also why can't I eat this?"
"Lana, where'd you get that candy from?" Lynn nervously asked.
"Luan's room, I found it on her bed so I figured I help myself," Lana said. "She owes me for eating the taco I was saving."
"I still don't think you should be going into her room and eating whatever you find," Stella said. "That's a total invasion of privacy."
"Tch, you've been around here long enough to know that privacy is a load of garbage in this house," Lana said, taking another piece.
"Still, that's not candy for your age," Stella said, then leaned into whisper to Lynn. "Should we call the doctor? Those can't be good for her."
"Uh..." Lynn wasn't sure how to handle this. Obviously, she knew that was just candy, but Stella thinks otherwise, and telling her the truth now would likely come as a shock to her.
"Lynn, I really think we should call a doctor, that might seriously mess her up," Stella urgently insisted.
"Hey, are you telling secrets!?" Lana asked. "Are they about me? Are you gossiping!?"
"What? No! Of course not," Stella nervously insisted, then turned back to Lynn. "Hurry!"
Lynn began to sweat, this was way too bad of a situation, part of her wanted to bail, a small part of her wanted to clock Lana for causing this, but a big part of her knew that it was time to come clean. Boy was Lincoln not gonna be happy.
"Lynn!" Stella shouted, making her way to the phone. "Ugh, that's it, I'm going to call the doctor's, Lana's gonna get sick if I don't."
"Hey I haven't eaten that much candy, you worry too much," Lana said.
Stella grabbed the phone, ready to dial, "It's not candy Lana, it's-"
"Stella wait up!" Lynn called to the girl. "She's right, it's just candy."
"Huh? That can't be candy, I needed it for...well you know," Stella said.
"Yeah, I know, but it wasn't what you thought it was, it really is just candy," Lynn said.
Stella's face started to lose color, not wanting to believe what she was hearing. Lana was just confused, not sure what her sister was talking about.
"What's going on? Is there something you two aren't telling me?" Lana asked.
"Lana, maybe you should go upstairs or something, I have some questions for Lynn," Stella said.
The young plumber girl looked a little displeased, "Hey why do I need to-"
"Lana just go!" Lynn demanded, pointing up the stairs. "Now!"
"Ugh, you two are such jerks sometimes," Lana complained as she stormed off. "Fine, I'll go, but I'm gonna find out what you're up to eventually!"
Once Lana was gone, Stella focused her attention back on Lynn, "Start explaining."
"Before I do, just know that we never meant you any distress, and we didn't say anything sooner because we didn't want you to potentially worry over nothing," Lynn explained.
"Lynn...just tell me what's happening," Stella calmly asked, though Lynn could tell that calmness would soon be replaced with a storm.
"Alright look, what you thought were pregnancy preventing pills were actually just regular candy, that's kind of why I was asking about how careful you and Lincoln were, because as you know, you went on a wild ride without insurance," Lynn explained.
"If that's true then..." Stella's pupils started to shrink, the realization of what happened starting to sink on. "Oh...no...No, no, no!" Stella began rubbing her head in worry, "This isn't happening, I must be dreaming! I couldn't have messed up that badly!"
"Stella, take a breath!" Lynn said, hoping to calm her friend. "I know you're scared and worried, but don't start jumping to conclusions, we don't know if you're actually pregnant!"
"Well I gotta know Lynn!" Stella shouted.
"I know it's just...look, let's just go to Luan's room, she might be able to help," Lynn said. "And don't worry, you won't have to explain much, because she, Luna and Lucy already know. Come on."
Stella still looked very unsure, and right now she was pretty on edge. The risk that she may be pregnant was weighing on her mind, but she figured to trust the older girl as she followed her upstairs.
Lynn had knocked on Luan's door, awaiting an answer from her or Luna. Fortunately came the comedian, "Lynn, what is it?" The jock gestured to a very distraught Stella, who seemed to be rubbing her stomach. Luan started to think the worst. "Oh don't tell me."
"Yeah she figured out all you had was candy in your drawer, also did you know that Lana took some from your room?" Lynn asked.
Luan groaned in annoyance, "So that's where it went! I leave for five seconds to get my hairbrush from Leni and-"
"Uh, girls?" Stella said, gesturing to her stomach.
"Right, sorry," Luan sheepishly said. "So what can I do to help?"
"You got any pregnancy tests? I figured you'd need one after your risky night with Benny," Lynn said.
"Risky night?" Stella asked.
"Don't ask, I'll get the test," Luan said, making her way back into her room and looking through the drawers.
"Where's Luna?" Stella asked.
"At a gig, she won't be back until much later," Luan said, finally find what she was looking for. "Good, here it is." She turned to Stella, "Do you know how to use this?"
"No," Stella said.
"Come with me then," Luan said, leading Stella into the bathroom.
"Good luck Stells," Lynn said, before making her way to the kitchen to grab a snack.
"So you've used this before?" Stella asked once inside the bathroom.
"Once...it was false though so I lucked out, maybe you will too," Luan said. "Uh...you gotta pull your panties down."
"Uh, right," Stella was about to grip her pants, but she hesitated, almost feeling sick already.
"What's wrong?" Luan asked. "If you're not comfortable with me in here that's fine, I can just tell you from the other side of the door, or I'll keep my back turned and instruct you."
"It's not that, I'm just really scared and nervous," Stella said, almost shaking. "I don't know if I can handle whatever that thing has to tell me, what if..."
Luan brought Stella in for a hug, "I know it's scary, I went through this as well. But you have to know for sure, this is very serious."
"I know it's just..." Stella hugged her friend tightly, almost crying from the fear. "I don't know if I can handle being a mother."
"Well, if you turn out to be pregnant, not saying you will be..." Luan began. "But if it happens, just know that I think you'd be a great mother. You're a nice and caring girl Stella, and you're very bold. I think the reason Lincoln loves you is not just because you're pretty, or that you like video games, laser tag and all that stuff he likes, it's because you two are so confident and you're both so take charge. You both are so determined to meet your goals and you don't let anything stop you, I know that regardless of this test's results, you're both gonna be fine."
"Thank you," Stella said, rubbing Luan's head. "Not just for helping me, but for being my best friend."
"Of course, I love you a lot, if you are pregnant, well I'm glad you're the one carrying my niece or nephew, and I promise I will take care of you," Luan said, giving her friend a quick kiss on the cheek. "But we won't know for sure until...well, that test."
"Right...here it goes," Stella said as she readied herself for her test.
Later on Lincoln had finally come home, looking forward to what was to come. "Alright, I should have everything I need in my room, no accidental switcharoos. Stella's probably ready so I should go upstairs and meet her. I just hope Lynn and Lucy were willing to leave." As he made his way up, he saw Luan and Stella leaving the bathroom, the latter looking very distraught and somewhat mortified. "Stella? What's wrong?"
"Lincoln!?" Luan shouted in surprise. "Oh, you're home."
"Yeah, I just had to stop by Clyde's house really quickly," Lincoln said, focusing back on his girlfriend. "What's wrong with Stella? Is she hurt?"
"No, she's not hurt, just..." Luan wasn't sure how to explain this. "You know how in life you think something's going your way and then things take a really strange turn?"
"Yeah I've had plenty of experience with that obviously," Lincoln said.
"But you're also good at coming up with plans to fix everything and keep things hunky dory, right little bro?" Luan asked.
"Well I am the Man with a Plan," Lincoln boasted. "What's this all about?"
"Lincoln, before we tell you, I just want you to know that me and the sisters will be there for you if things go wrong, and we'll help you plan things out so your life can go smoothly," Luan said.
"You're starting to weird me out, what's going on Luan?" Lincoln asked.
Luan turned to Stella, "Wanna show him?"
Stella sighed in grief as she presented the pregnancy test to Lincoln, "You know what this is...right?"
Lincoln stared hard at the item, "Uh...no, don't know what that is."
"That's right, it's..." Stella's eyes widened, the girl suddenly getting somewhat annoyed. "Huh? What do you mean you don't know what this is!?"
"Is it a type of thermometer?" Lincoln asked. "Are you sick? Did you catch a cold? If you did that's fine, we can 'meet up' another time."
"I'm not sick Lincoln!" Stella angrily explained.
"Not yet, but wait until your guest starts sending back the order," Luan joked, chuckling a bit before silencing herself after receiving Stella's glare. "Right, bad time.
"Stella what's going on?" Lincoln asked. "Why is that thermometer so-"
"It's not a fucking thermometer!" Stella shouted.
"Stella!" Lincoln scolded, not pleased with his girlfriend's colorful tone. Even Luan couldn't believe her ears.
The girl reeled back a bit, "Sorry about that, I'm just really stressed out right now."
"Lincoln, that's a pregnancy test, and it's positive," Luan explained.
"Wait, pregnancy test? Positive?" Lincoln started letting the revelation sink in, and it was not a good feeling. "Wait, don't tell me, are you...after we...but...pills!"
"That was just candy," Luan explained. "Stella confused them for pregnancy protection pills."
"So, that means..." Lincoln's face turned blue as he nervously gulped. "That you...that we..."
"It means I'm pregnant Lincoln," Stella said. "You and I are going to be parents."
That was the last thing Lincoln heard before he fainted, the shock was understandably too much for the poor boy. This would be much harder to plan than anything he's had to do so far.
