The silence inside the house fell heavily on Lincoln, his sisters; he wanted to reach them, to tell them that he was sorry for everything and that he couldn't spend a single day without thinking about them. There were many things that he wanted to say yet not a single word would come out of his mouth in fear that perhaps things could have no mending. While Lincoln stayed frozen in words, from the group of sisters emerged Leni. Her eyes, once known to be filled with love and care for all of her siblings with Lincoln receiving a more love-filled treatment than the others, were now engulfed in doubt, sorrow and fear as they looked upon Lincoln. While looking at the White-haired boy directly in the eyes she began to speak softly.

"Are you really yourself? Are you not a dream? Linky?"

Hearing his sister's words struck hard inside Lincoln's heart. He could tell how hurt she's been all this time because of what he did, because of the way he left, because of… him but even so she still looked at him with hopeful eyes expecting of him the words that would mend the scars of his past deeds so Lincoln walked closer to her and with a tender smile he answered his older sister.

"Yes, Leni it's me I'm…. finally back home "

"*sob* Oh, Linky"

Not being able to hold back anymore Leni rushed up to Lincoln and embraced him in a hug far warmer than the ones they used to have years back. As the scene took place the rest of the sisters began to approach Lincoln and one by one each started talking to the White-haired singer.

"Lincoln?"

"Linc?"

"Lola? Lana? Is that you? I-I can't believe how much you two have grown you both have turned into beautiful girls"

Blushing a bit over the innocent complement both twins rushed in to hug Lincoln and with a wide smile they spoke in unison.

"Welcome back Lincoln"

"Now this is what I call a shocking reunion, hehe get it?"

"Ugh"

As the Sisters grunted over Luan's joke a small giggle began to sound, this coming from Lincoln who was trying to hold his laughter.

"Pfft,hahaha, good one Luan I really missed hearing your jokes "

While trying to hide a small blush Luan answered back.

"Well, I - ….I really missed you too welcome home Linc"

Hearing Luan's words put a smile on Lincoln's face but that sensation wouldn't last long as he felt a shiver come down his back. Turning his head around Lincoln was met with the sight of Lucy embracing him tightly from behind her face burying deep into his back.

"...Welcome home big brother"

"I-…. I'm glad to be back with all of you thank you Lucy"

The young goth girl dug herself deeper into Lincoln's shirt trying to hide her blushed Lisa stepped in front of the White-haired singer.

"It's truly wonderful seeing you come back dear elder brother "

"Lisa? W-wow you've also grown up so big, I can barely recognize you, you've also become very pretty "

Putting her head down in order to hide the redness on her face Lisa answered back.

"I-It's been a few years dear brother changes are but natural yet…*whisper* I'm glad you still remain your kind self"

As Lincoln finished talking with the young scientist he felt a touch on his shoulder. Turning around Lincoln was greeted by the smile of his older sister Lori.

"So this is really happening, you really came back to us, little brother"

"Lori…. I-"

"Don't say anything, having you finally here it's all that matters, welcome home Lincoln"

"Yeah…. it's great to be back with you guys I've really missed you, all this time"

As Lincoln and Lori finished talking Luna stepped in close to her sisters and with a wide smile on her face she spoke up.

"Hey guys you do know you also have a sister you haven't seen in years standing right here come on, don't I get a welcome hug"

Everyone's attention suddenly turned to Luna greeted by smiles from the rest of the Loud sisters. Afterwards Luan walked closer to the Purple rocker and after a large hug she spoke to her.

"How could we forget about you Lunes ,we… really missed you both "

"Yeah, we really missed you guys too sorry for… well everything really"

"Don't worry about it Luna all that it matters is that you guys came back in the end"

"Hehe, is that right? Thanks Lori".

"Aww this is such a beautiful reunion"

As Sam looked at the sibling reunion with joy Lincoln called up to her with a smile on his face, something that Sam adored seeing on him.

"What are you doing standing there Sam? Didn't you hear mom? For better or worse, you are a Loud too so come here."

"*sob* Oh you guys "

As everyone was cheering and talking Lincoln couldn't help to feel happiness all around him finally after years of grief he managed to reunite with his family the people he cherished most in this world apart from Luna and Sam that is yet he couldn't help to feel that something was missing he couldn't really tell what it was but it was definitely not there then looking back Lincoln noticed Lynn up until now didn't move an inch from her spot while looking down on the floor with her arms wrapped around each other. Thinking that something was wrong with his older sister, Lincoln walked in closer to her.

"Lynn? Is that you? Are you feeling oka-"

"Don't come any closer!"

"Huh!?"

"You must really think you're brave by coming back here like nothing happened well unlike them I have no room to forgive a selfish jerk like you so the best you can do is leave again like the coward you are"

As Lynn finished yelling those words the sisters all stared at her with shock then without a second to waste Luna quickly stepped in and called out to the red jock.

"Lynn, how could you say that!? don't you know how much he has suffered by having to be away? All the tears he has dropped because of what we did? Do you really think we never regretted leaving all of you behind?"

"Shut up Luna, I don't want to hear your pathetic excuses. You are not any better than he is in all of this and you still have the guts to call me out?"

"Why you little-"

Stepping in front of Luna came Lincoln who only took a small glance at the purple rocker with a look that felt almost empty.

"It's okay Luna, stop this please "

"Lincoln…"

She… has every right to say those things. The things that I did I…. I'm not someone good but…

Slowly turning around Lincoln faced Lynn and with their eyes looking firmly at each other Lincoln spoke.

"I'm sorry Lynn"

Lynn stared at Lincoln for a few seconds before rushing up to her room while covering her face in the process. Lincoln then collapsed to the floor simply letting the tears he was holding up to that point fall down as he stared at the ground. Concerned for his well-being both Luna and Sam came to his side with the rest of the Loud sisters following, all of them trying their best to comfort the white-haired singer.

Inside Lynn's room….

As Lynn reached her room she became possessed by feelings of rage trashing and tossing anything that she came across until she lifted up a frame, before she could toss it she took a quick glance at the picture inside the frame and her eyes began to flood with tears as she slowly fell to the floor, amid her sobbing Lynn took another look at the picture which showed her and Lincoln back when they were kids, the calm days in which they often played, joked, argued but most importantly they were there for each other until… that horrible day all those years ago tore them apart. Looking directly at the picture of Lincoln, Lynn softly whispered inside the empty room.

"Grr…dammit you jerk, dumbass, selfish, stinking ,good for nothing, asshole"

("I'm sorry Lynn")

" *sob* If you really are so sorry then why did you leave in the first place… I-I cared for you, I was there for you too, I…. Loved you. Did you really never noticed Lincoln?"
