Next morning…

As dawn embraced the sky, within the Loud house a hush reigned after the events that took place last night, Lincoln and Luna's return, the family's heartfelt reunion, and of course… Lynn's reaction. Following the years after Lincoln and Luna left, Lynn had become more reserved about her feelings, only willing to show a confident yet sort of cocky personality towards those around her even her own family, so seeing such an aggressive burst come out of Lynn was overall unnatural to both her parents and the rest of the Loud siblings but the biggest concern to the whole family at the moment was none other than Lincoln. Soon after his collapse Luna and Sam came rushing towards the White-haired singer.

Embracing Lincoln tightly, both girls began to speak close to his ear, hoping that their words would be enough to reach onto him and appease his aching heart.

"Linc… it'll be okay we are here with you, we won't go anywhere "

Sam exclaimed as her concern for Lincoln grew larger by the second.

" Baby bro, Lincoln… Look at me, everything is gonna be fine I promise"

Luna spoke as she attempted to make eye contact with Lincoln.

While both girls tried their best to comfort the White-haired singer, the rest of the Loud sisters approached, all of them extremely concerned over their brother's current state.

" *sob* Linky… "

Leni softly whimpered as she watched over her younger brother.

"Lincoln, have you… been feeling like this all these years? "

Luan murmured as she grieved over Lincoln's collapse.

"This is all Lynn's fault, I mean what kind of nerve does she has to say those things "

"Yeah, Lincoln and Luna finally made an effort to return and this is what she does?. Who does she think she is?"

The twins shouted with anger.

"Guys come down a little, although what Lynn said was harsh we simply can't go prosecuting her like that"

"I'm sorry Lori, although I'd rather keep myself away from anything revolving around emotional spectrums, I must side with the twins on this occasion, I cannot forgive Lynn's moronic and pessimistic attitude towards our beloved bro- *cough* *cough* I-I mean towards our estimated elder siblings of course"

As the Loud siblings spoke Luna broke into the conversation.

"Guys this is not the time to argue. I think it's better if we let Lincoln get some rest. It's been a long trip, after all, Mom, is there a place for us to sleep? "

"Yes honey your old rooms, they haven't been touched since… you guys left"

"... Okay thank you, we'll get him upstairs for now, we'll see you guys later"

As Luna finished speaking she with the help of Sam lifted Lincoln by the shoulders in an effort to get him up the stairs, after a few motions and tries both girls and Lincoln managed to reach the second floor of the house leaving the rest of the Loud sisters and their parents with grand anxiety.

Later on…

("I can't believe he did something like that, Is he really just a kid? ")

("How horrible ")

(" I can't believe I used to have classes with that guy" )

( " And he still has the nerve to sing here like nothing happened? Man what a scumbag " )

( " For now and forever, you'll never be worthy of being loved, Lincoln loud " )

" Gahhhh"

*heavy breathing*

In the mid of nightmares the white haired singer awakens.

"Haaaa, was it all just a dream? I haven't had nightmares like these in years.

Looking around, Lincoln began to recognize the place he was in, a place he knew far from well.

" I'm in… my old room? The girls must have taken me here after what happened last night. Did I really think everything would be fine after eight years of not being around? How stupid of me"

("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")

"Lynn… "

After a moment of silence Lincoln began to dwell on his mind where happy memories of Lynn and him appeared one after the other. Clenching his fist with determination Lincoln knew what he had to do.

"I must find a way to talk to her, I won't be able to change anything if I just sit still without doing anything"

Looking at his phone Lincoln noticed that the clock marked five thirty in the morning.

" But first I think it's time for some breakfast, everyone should be up soon "

A few minutes later…

Waking up to the sounds of her alarm Rita Loud slowly began to open her eyes embracing the beginning of a brand new day but this day felt special to the Loud matriarch after all it was a day she had been dreaming about for a long time now, the day in which she would wake up and her precious son and daughter would be there to greet her in the morning but she couldn't give herself to that luxury, not with what happened last night seeing her kids argue like that tore a hole in Rita's heart and seeing how her beloved son collapsed under such pressure only made the wound deeper. Making her way downstairs after the usual morning trip to the bathroom, the Loud matriarch was surprised to find the lights turned on more specifically the kitchen and dining room lights and a swift aroma of delicious goods being prepared, someone was… ¿Making breakfast?. Rita was puzzled, as she was certain that her husband couldn't be the one preparing the delectable meals since she left him in their room just a few minutes ago. Perhaps it could be one of the girls? No, if it was she would have noticed after all Louds are known for many things but being quiet was usually not one of them if you didn't count Lucy that is, but Rita was certain the young goth girl couldn't be responsible because based on the delectable aroma that filled the air the Loud matriarch could tell that whoever was down in the kitchen had great culinary skills perhaps almost as good as her husband's. Revolving her head around one more time Rita thought of all possible solutions her husband, her daughters, Luna and Sam, but she discarded that last option since she passed by their respective room earlier and heard as they both in sort of sweet way were sleep talking to each other. Snoring, giggles and something about a maid costume but one thing that was consistent between the two of them is how they wouldn't stop calling out for…

"Wait it couldn't be"

In a moment of quick realization, Rita rushed her step, all was clear to her now, initially she didn't pass it as an option, especially with what happened last night but now her mind was slowly clearing from doubt as she reached the kitchen, out of surprise she spoke as she saw the figure standing with a bowl of pancake mix in his hands.

"Lincoln?"

"Hmm? Mom is that you? What are you doing up so early? Did I wake you up by any chance? "

"Don't worry honey, you didn't wake me up but I should be asking you what you are doing up right now and why are you making breakfast in the first place?"

"Ah well, force of habit I guess, Luna and Sam always struggle to get up and make something to eat so when we are home I'm usually the one who cooks and…"

"And?"

"And well, I thought a breakfast together would be good for all of us, I just really missed eating with all of you guys"

"Aww honey that's so sweet of you but you didn't have to trouble yourself with this especially after-... "

Rita stood quiet all of a sudden, afraid to even mention last night's events , she was still worried about what happened to Lincoln and was concerned that even the most minimal words might trigger something within him once again.

"Mom look at me, I'm fine okay ? I knew things wouldn't be easy at the moment I decided to return but giving up just like that is something that I don't plan to do, I don't want to run away anymore "

"*Sniff* That's great to hear honey ,it's just that… Lynn, please don't come to hate her, she didn't mean all of those things she said last night, she was just really hurt when you guys left, I think she needs a little more time to heal that's all"

"... I know mom, …I think we all do and I don't want to give up with Lynn, not until I can talk to her"

"Well said honey…*sob*"

"Hmm? Mom, what's wrong? "

"Nothing, it's just that… you really have matured honey…."

Closing in next to Lincoln, Rita extended her right arm and began to hold the white-haired singer's hand, placing her other hand gently on his cheek, with a loving smile the Loud matriarch looked at her son directly in the eyes and spoke.

"No matter what happened in the past or what may come later in life I'm proud of the person you have become honey"

"...Mom"

Without a second thought, Lincoln jumped in and began to hug her mother, both Louds standing in silence as all words felt meaningless to say.

After a few moments, Lincoln spoke.

"Thanks mom, those words… they mean a lot to me "

"Anytime honey"

After the sweet exchange of words and affection, Rita simply stood in the kitchen as Lincoln finished preparing the appetizing meals for the whole family as he concluded Rita looked at the kitchen clock, noticing the time the Loud matriarch spoke.

"It's almost seven, the girls should be up at any minute now"

"Almost seven? Then I should go and wake up Luna and Sam "

"Wake the girls up? "

"Well they usually struggle getting up in the mornings so I'm also in charge of waking them up plus they must have been really worried about me last night so I need to tell them that I'm feeling better now "

"Oh okay honey, your father and the other girls will be up soon so we'll wait for you guys here"

"It's okay mom, this won't take long"

In Luna's room…

As the first rays of the morning sun began to shine marking the beginning of a brand new day inside Luna's old room it seemed that waking up was something far from happening between the purple and cyan rocker as they laid down in bed right next to each other snuggling tightly as barely audible mumbling departed from both girls signaling their usual encounters with peculiarly 'vivid' dreams.

"Mmmhmm. . Sam stop going into Lincoln's room, what did I tell you about leaving him those kinds of 'pictures' "

"Hehehe.. Not here Linc we gotta wait until I convince Luna to… put… on… the maid costume*snore*"

After a few minutes passed the door of the room began to open slowly, revealing Lincoln who had finally reached the room. With slow yet gentle motions the white-haired singer managed to get close to the two sleeping girls without as much as making any unnecessary noises, something like this was second nature to him already but what followed after was what Lincoln considered to be the most challenging part when it came to waking the slumbering duo up.

Slowly closing in next to them, Lincoln started to softly whisper to both Luna and Sam with enough force to be heard but not enough to startle them in the process.

" Luna… Sam… it's morning already time to wake up"

While doing so he also began to gently tap Sam which was usually the hardest of the two to wake up. This action as always proved to be very effective as the cyan rocker began to slightly open her eyes.

"Mhmm… Hmm? Linc? Is that you?"

"Yeah Sam it's me, come on it's morning time to wake up"

"Mhmm… five more minutes"

"Sorry Sam no can do, breakfast is going to get cold come on time to get up "

"Hmm well, I guess I'm sorry too Linc "

" Hmm? For what?"

"For this, Hehehe"

" Huh? No- Wait Sam- "

Meanwhile downstairs...
