Guest: Ronnie Anne will actually get some karma from a certain someone.
Geo Soul: Indeed
dogspirit1: Yeah, but now we must wonder if she can be better.

Anyways, lets get on to the Story!

It was Monday morning, the morning was cold but it would heat up later in the day, it would indeed be another beautiful day within Royal Woods. Lincoln would return to school, he still had the black-eye but that was not on his mind. He would be returning to school again, but finally, something was different, and it was not the fourth week till summer, no, it was Tabby. Ever since Tabby had kissed Lincoln, Lincoln was at a loss for words, but he accepted Tabby, and ever since that day, they have been texting nonstop, but luckily it was not as constant as Lori and Bobby. However, there was one side effect...
"So hows your girlfriend~?" Becky asked
Lincoln groaned, "Will you stop... she's fine"
Becky giggled, "I'm happy for you Linc, be good to her," Becky told him "Still can't believe that my white Russian as a Girlfriend!"
Lincoln nodded and went back to staring out of the window. He then looked back to Becky as he remembered the conversation he had with her uncle. It had actually been another thing that had been on Lincoln's mind. He thought it was the best time to ask her why she wanted to help him so badly.
"Hey-"
"Were here!"
Lincoln stopped himself and looked to see that he was indeed in front of his school. He then looked back to Becky. Lincoln sighed but smiled. He would have to ask her later.
"Bye Becky, see you at home"
Lincoln got out and waved bye and headed into the school. As soon as he had entered the school he looked around for the one person that he wanted to be around more than anyone else, but she was nowhere in sight at the moment, so Lincoln decided to head to his locker. He opened it and he put his stuff away before he closed it. Lincoln sighed while he closed his eyes.
"Hey, buddy, what's up?"
Lincoln froze. The voice was very familiar and how couldn't it be. It was his best friends after all. Lincoln to his right to see Clyde. He was not wearing his classic sweater or his pants, no he was wearing a blue button-up t-shirt and khaki pants and his hair was shorter. Lincoln looked at him like he was a new person. Lincoln still could not believe his eyes of who he was looking at.
However, that was not what he wanted to ask his friend, no, Lincoln had a much bigger question.
"Where were you?" Lincoln asked
Clyde smiled, "what? not gonna say how cool I look?"
Lincoln said nothing but stared at his friend. Clyde looked at him and his smile went from happy to nervous.
"Sorry about not calling Linc, I was on a cruise and I couldn't talk to anyone due to not having any reception," Clyde said
Lincoln sighed, he wanted to be angry at Clyde for not being there, but he had a reason. a Valid reason, and it would be selfish of him to be angry at Clyde. Lincoln looked back at his friend and smiled.
"Sorry... it's been a rough week without you buddy" Lincoln said with a soft smile
Clyde smiled before wrapping his arm around his best friend and walking to his right, "well, let's catch up shall we?" Clyde asked
Lincoln smiled, "sure, but you might not like where it goes," Lincoln told him.
The two then walked the halls of the school and Lincoln began to tell his best friend about what he'd been missing. Lincoln felt better to have his best friend back

The Louds van pulled up to the house. The only people in the Van was Ronnie Anne, Lori, and Bobby. As soon as they pulled up to the house Ronnie Anne opened the van door and speed-walked into the Louds home. Lori and Bobby saw this and knew she was not acting herself for the past three days, ever since she was rejected by Lincoln. She did not know the whole story of what was happening with Lincoln, but Bobby was told by Lori. Lori continued to look out of the driver's window.
"You fucked up" Came the Voice of Bobby
Lori turned to him to see his head on the dashboard. Lori sighed while she rubbed her head, "please I don't need this right now..." She told him
"What do you need Lori?" Bobby asked, "Want me to tell you that it's ok and you're not at fault? want me to tell you thats it's ok to feel sorry for yourself in this situation? want me to tell you that's it's ok to kick out your brother!? It's Not ok! It can't be ok!"
"Don't" Lori growled
"Don't what? Don't tell you that you fucked up big time?" Bobby said, his voice rising with anger
"And like you so much better," Lori asked
"I'm not the one who kicked out their younger sibling," Bobby told her
"No, but you broke up with me over Lincoln saying some shit about your sister," Lori told him
Bobby lifted his head and looked to Lori, "Leave Ronnie out of this" Bobby told her
"Why? You know she used to Bully Lincoln right? did she tell you how she pulled his pants down in front of the whole school? Did she ever tell you about that!? HUH!?" Lori yelled
Bobby was at a loss of words, he shook his head, "your lying" Bobby replied
"Am I?" Lori asked with anger "why don't you go ask her" Lori said
Bobby shook his head, "this isn't about Ronnie this is about you"
"me!? What about you!? You kicked me aside instead of talking to me when that whole breaking up with me situation happened!" Lori cried
"I did not kick you aside..." Bobby replied
"Bullshit! Do you know how fucking stupid and an ass you can be!?" Lori cried
Do you know how fucking needy you can be!?" Bobby yelled
There were no words for a few seconds, Lori was taken aback, but not Bobby, his anger was still present.
"I ask for space sometimes, but whenever there is the smallest problem, you come calling me in tears over the dumbest shit Lori!" Bobby told her "It is so fucking exhausting to be with someone who is so needy!" Bobby yelled
"I DON'T FUCKING NEED YOU!" Lori cried
"really Lori? Because if you didn't need me you would have been asking me to stay with you this week so you could figure your shit out" Bobby replied
There was silence in the van. it was so tense that not another word could be spoken. The first one to leave the van was Bobby and he walked back into the house. Leaving Lori alone. Lori looked as he left and as he shut the door. Lori slammed her hands on the dashboard in anger.
"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!" Lori cried as she kept hitting the dashboard
Lori's anger died, only to be replaced with sadness. Lori wept in the car and her head rested against the steering wheel. She sobbed and sobbed, she took in Bobby's words as she cried.
Lori knew she wasn't needy, she didn't rely on him all the time, she never once cried to him, she never overreacted with him.
All of his words were lies.
She knew that.
She then began to wonder if Lincoln had thought the same thing?
Finally, Lori began to question her mind and her actions.
Was she really needy?
was she so obsessed to get attention?
did she really need someone to hold her hand?
that was the big question...
in the end, was she right? or was she wrong?

School had finally finished and Now Lincoln was at home with her. He had finished the homework he was given that day. All in all, today was actually decent for him. Lincoln had told Clyde about him and Tabby, and the fight he had with Ronnie Anne, Clyde, of course, was on his side, Clyde had even cussed when he heard what Lori had done to him, Lincoln actually had a good chuckle at that. He had Hung with Tabby and Clyde during lunch. Of course, there was a lot of eyes on Lincoln and Tabby when they were holding hands in the lunchroom, but Lincoln didn't mind, he was actually starting to think that things were getting better, he just had to hope that his family would maybe become better, he didn't care about their flaws, he knew that those might always be there, but he hoped that maybe they finally realized how he felt.
However, Lincoln had kept his promise that he made to himself that morning.
He was right now, in front of Becky's door and he was preparing himself to talk to her. Living with Lori had taught him not to enter a girl's room without permission, especially if they were teens.
Lincoln knocked on the door and waited.
"Come in!" Becky called through the door
Lincoln turned the knob and opened the door. He saw Becky in her usual outfit and she was sitting on her bed with her computer on her lap. She turned to see Lincoln and smiled
"Hey, Linc, what's up?" She asked
Lincoln took a breath in before closing the door and walking closer to her, "I just wanted to ask you something Becky"
"Ask away Lil' dude," Becky said as she closed her computer and set it aside.
"I wanted to know something... And it's ok if you don't want to give me a full explanation but I just wanted to know because it's been on my mind for a while" Lincoln told her
"What is it?" Becky said with a soft smile, "I promise to try and answer it as honestly as I can"
Lincoln took a deep breath and closed his eyes before looking at Becky, "Why are you helping me?" Lincoln asked
Becky smiled, she got off her bed and went to her dresser and picked up a photo. She walked back and sat back on her bed, she then signaled Lincoln to sit next to her on her bed. Lincoln did so and Becky showed him the photo.
"This was when My Aunt first took us away from my parents... notice anything?"
Lincoln looked at the picture and indeed saw something the surprised him. on a 6-year-old Becky's back was a 5-year-old boy.
"who's he?" Lincoln asked while pointing at the Baby
Becky smiled, "that's my baby brother, Charlie" Becky replied
"Your brother?" Lincoln asked, now very confused
"Yep, he would've been your age by now" Becky replied
Lincoln heard her words carefully, but he decided to ask.
"What happened to him?" Lincoln asked
Becky looked at him, "He's dead"
Lincoln gasped, "I-I'm sorry! If you don't-"
"No, no... it's ok, besides it also has a lot to do with why I'm helping you" Becky said, "Well, wanna hear it?" Becky asked
Lincoln nodded, "only if you want to"
Becky smiled softly and nodded.
